In the end, everyone entered the dungeon.

Hu Hu actually didn’t know why he made such a decision.

He only knew that the junior with the turtle shell on his head, spoke like a devil’s whisper.

It seemed to carry some sort of magic power, fooling him into coming along.

"Sure enough, it’s a swamp."

Li Pu glanced around and stated the obvious.

Apart from the rocky landing near the dungeon’s light gate, there was mud everywhere as far as the eye could see.

Not knowing how deep one might sink if they stepped into it.

"Everyone be cautious, this dungeon is tough to deal with."

"It’ll be harder to conquer without Mei Kong."

While staying alert to the surroundings, Mumu reminded everyone.

"She’s right, Mei Kong is crucial in our team as our tank, healer, and support."

"And in the Wild Beast Swamp, these three roles are essential."

Hu Hu concurred.

"..."

Li Pu fell silent upon hearing this.

Thinking that aside from a tank, healer, and support, what else is there in a team?

It feels like everything depends on her alone.

"Could it be that you guys are all damage dealers?"

Wu Guinan couldn’t help but gripe.

"That’s right, the three of us have nine summoned beasts, technically speaking we’re damage dealers..."

Hu Hu scratched his head, feeling a bit embarrassed.

"Oh my, seriously, I serve YOU guys."

Wu Guinan was left speechless.

Meanwhile, Quan Shuren was completely focused elsewhere and not on the group’s conversation.

He was repeatedly checking how Li Pu’s summoned beasts had changed.

The former grass man and kangaroo were gone, replaced by a black owl that could sleep standing?

"But brother Quan’s sturdy tree and the summoned little tree man should handle some of the tanking, right?"

But at this moment, Hu Hu cued him.

"Uh, halfway I guess."

"There’s just not many trees around here, so it’s hard to summon many treemen."

Quan Shuren could only temporarily collect his thoughts.

"Then I’ll take care of the other half."

Wu Guinan took off the rolling turtle from his head and put it on the ground.

[Roll!]

With a roar, the rolling turtle grew larger. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

"Wow, turtle junior, you’ve really solved our urgent need!"

Hu Hu’s eyes lit up at once.

This big turtle looked like a typical meat shield, and paired with the sturdy tree, it shouldn’t be too much of a problem.

"But... we’re still missing a healer."

Mumu remained concerned.

None of them had learned [Healing] by chance.

"I can handle the healing."

Li Pu raised his hand.

This action drew everyone’s attention, waiting for him to release a healing summon.

"Um? Oh..."

Li Pu was stared at for a while before he realized.

Originally, he meant to say he’d act as the healer himself.

But it seemed everyone misunderstood.

Oh well, might as well go with it.

Letting number 2 practice might not be a bad idea.

So he took out the mecha-like model from his pocket and tossed it.

Clang clang clatter!

The model flashed in mid-air, turning into a gigantic mecha head.

"Ah, what is that?"

"Such a big head, wow!"

Mumu and Hu Hu were a little startled.

"!!!"

As for Quan Shuren, he was astounded.

This guy, why does he have a new summoned beast?!

Grass man, kangaroo, little wolf, owl, mecha...

For a moment, he felt dizzy.

Isn’t this five summoned beasts?!

At this moment, Quan Shuren wanted to speak, but felt something stuck in his throat, unable to make a sound.

Could it be... this guy is a five-contract summoner??

Like those top seniors in year four, a five-contract summoner?

Looking at Mumu and Hu Hu, these two seemed completely unaware, which pained him.

Why does such a shocking revelation only let him bear it!

Huh?

But the next second, his gaze swept to Wu Guinan.

This sidekick junior (Wu Guinan: Hey), smiling warmly at him.

Yet in Quan Shuren’s mind there’s only one thought.

Should I tell them?

Or not tell them?

Should I tell them?

Or not tell them?

Unconsciously, he noticed Wu Guinan smiling and shaking his head as if seeing right through him.

Oh, is this something meant to be kept secret temporarily...

Quan Shuren was confused at first but soon understood.

Having made this decision, seeing Hu Hu and Mumu still in the dark, he suddenly felt a subtle feeling—a bit superior.

"Yes, yes, exactly that."

Witnessing the change in expression, Wu Guinan’s smile seemed to carry a divine quality.

"Junior, what a quirky summoned beast you have, and... are you sure it’s a healer, not a meat shield?"

"Right, such a big lump of iron, it should be tough against blows."

Hu Hu and Mumu scrutinized number 2, then focused on Li Pu.

Li Pu didn’t explain further, he just gently tapped number 2’s mecha panel.

[Prepare to meet your end!]

Prompted by the command, number 2’s eyes flashed red.

The metal mask-like face opened, revealing the green energy within.

"Junior! What are you doing!"

Aimed at Hu Hu, he only managed a shout before being struck by the green energy beam.
