Beast Taming: I Can Evolve Indefinitely-Chapter 378 - 374: Death Wing Bear Dragon
Chapter 378: Chapter 374: Death Wing Bear Dragon
On the broad display screen, Gu Shan was still standing upright in his original position, but his closed eyes and faint snoring indicated his current state.
He was asleep.
“He actually fell asleep during the battle, it seems that Gu Shan has slacked off in my absence.”
Zhou Yan put on a face full of sorrow and anger, obviously not very satisfied with Gu Shan’s performance. But Lu Qing on the side saw some indications.
“I think, Gu Shan must have been affected by Beast Master Bai Qi’s pet beast.”
“Pet beast?”
Upon hearing this, everyone looked over. Sure enough, they noticed that Gu Shan’s eight pets were also asleep, lying motionless on the ground. On the other side, Bai Qi’s insect was emitting a rainbow-like, seven-colored glow.
“Is it a hypnotic skill? But Gu Shan is in the battle room, how could he also be hypnotized?”
Zhou Yan became more confused. He glanced at Gu Shan, who seemed to be dreaming about something happy. He was still giggling even though he was asleep, which made Zhou Yan even more puzzled.
“We’ll know once Bai Qi comes out.”
Xiao Yuan deeply glanced at Bai Qi’s indifferent face on the screen, his fighting spirit increasingly intense.
“Epsilon, why did you hypnotize Gu Shan as well?”
Bai Qi also noticed that Gu Shan had fallen into a deep sleep and couldn’t help but ask.
“Leader, is that not allowed? I sensed his Spirit Power when I was hypnotizing the other pets, so I put him to sleep as well. If the master dislikes it, I will wake him up immediately.”
The bug, who was under the Dragon Sleep condition but was still mentally active, became somewhat anxious upon hearing Bai Qi’s question.
“No need, let him continue sleeping like this.”
Bai Qi shook his head and said, “But what dream is Gu Shan having now that he’s laughing so happily?”
The bug fell silent upon hearing this. After hesitating for a long time, he said, “Leader, you should see it for yourself…”
As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Qi felt the scene before him change. The eight pets who were originally deep in sleep were now unleashing their power in the battlefield. In front of them was the “bug”, beaten and bruised all over.
“Tsk, tsk, this effect, it’s become much more realistic than before.”
Looking at the epic scene before him, Bai Qi couldn’t help but give the bug a thumbs-up.
Although he had already tried it, this was the first time he was seeing such a large number of combat scenes. However, it seemed that the effect was good. It was a pity that virtual reality gaming had not yet been developed before he came to this world, otherwise, he would be able to make a comparison.
Gu Shan didn’t seem to notice Bai Qi’s consciousness entering. What he could see were only a grief-stricken Bai Qi, full of sorrow because his pet had been injured.
“It’s okay, the Tower of Competition will teleport the pets out before they suffer fatal injuries, and the healing spells are also quite sophisticated.”
Looking at the bug that had completely lost its combat power, Gu Shan asked his pets to stop attacking and started to console Bai Qi.
However, Bai Qi seemed to still be immersed in the shadow of defeat, suddenly letting out a roar at Gu Shan. Gu Shan, on the other hand, was patiently pacifying him, looking like a great general indeed.
“I mean… Is it necessary to make me look so intolerant of failure?”
Bai Qi’s eye twitched. He looked at the impotently furious “him” and directed an extremely dangerous look at the bug.
“Cough, cough… Leader, please let me explain.”
The bug hurriedly shook its head and said, “My Dream Weaver melds the dreams of the targets together. In order not to let them find out, I didn’t interfere with their dreams.”
“So, this is Gu Shan’s own dream?”
“Correct.”
Bai Qi couldn’t help but laugh upon hearing this. He began looking at Gu Shan with a more peculiar gaze.
Who would have thought, Gu Shan was quite a person given to thinking secretly.
“Although I know it’s a dream, it still feels quite uncomfortable to watch. Better to end the battle sooner.”
Bai Qi smacked his lips, and the bug immediately understood. With a thought in mind, the entire dream suddenly changed.
The “himself” that had completely lost its combat capability after being hit by the elemental obliteration bullet suddenly collapsed. The pitch-black body was like a black hole, swallowing everything on the grassland. The eight pets that sensed something was wrong tried to dodge, but they were soon swallowed by the darkness.
For a moment, the eight pets were as if they were in the universe, and deep in the universe, a slowly approaching sun that continuously emitted heat and light appeared.
“This is, a force field technique?”
Gu Shan slightly furrowed his brows, suddenly hearing a dragon chant in his ear. When he looked over, he was completely stunned by the scene before him.
He saw that in the endless darkness, as the sun gradually approached, the surrounding darkness was slowly dissipating. Meanwhile, a huge dragon that seemed to traverse the universe slowly appeared before the eight pets.
The emerald-green vertical pupils of the dragon were coldly staring at the eight pets, and its long whiskers moved around the eight pets like a long river.
Compared with this, the eight pets were no different from fish in a river.
“A dragon of this size, how is it possible!”
Gu Shan’s face was full of disbelief, while the eight pets began to launch attacks. But the effect was pitiful. They couldn’t even make a giant dragon shake.
Roar!
However, the giant dragon seemed to be angered by the attack of these ants. It slowly opened its mouth and let out a deafening dragon roar.
Pant… Pant… Pant…
The sky-shaking dragon roar echoed in Gu Shan’s ears, startling him awake. He gasped heavily, then began to check the situation around him.
There was no universe, no sun, and certainly no excessively large giant dragon. Only the eight pets that had also been awakened and the unscathed bug on the opposite side remained.
“Was everything just an illusion?”
With a thoughtful expression, Gu Shan felt somewhat frustrated when he saw the smile on Bai Qi’s face.
Not realizing when he had been hypnotized by Bai Qi’s pet, he had underestimated his opponent.
However, he wasn’t ready to admit defeat just yet.
Gu Shan forcefully slapped his own face, robustly intending to command his pets for another attack. But, he found that his eight pets didn’t respond to his commands. Instead, they conveyed a feeling of fear.
“It seems they were scared…”
Seeing his eight pets behaving as if they had woken up from a terrible nightmare, Bai Qi let out a helpless sigh.
Though the giant dragon was an illusion created by the insect-grass, its dragon might was real, from the Green Dragon. And, combined with the King-level aura from the insect-grass, even the combined strength of his eight pets was no match.
He hoped it didn’t leave a psychological shadow on them.
Bai Qi turned to Gu Shan: “I guess, there’s no need to continue, right?”
Gushan froze at the sound of Bai Qi’s voice; a surge of exhaustion welled up from deep within his soul.
Though he wasn’t directly hit, he was also in the same dreamland. It was impossible not to be affected. Being openly confronted by Bai Qi, he felt somewhat defeated.
“I lost…”
Gu Shan admitted his defeat with a sorrowful tone. Xiao Yuan and others who were watching from outside also fell into silence.
After a while, it was Xiao Yuan who broke the silence.
“Let me go next.”
Although they were left in confusion, they had a rough guess about the attributes of the insect-grass.
Spiritual.
Also…
Dragon.”
“Hey, I should be the one going next! I was looking forward to avenging Gu Shan.”
Zhou Yan was obviously reluctant, and said: “I have also promoted my Soul of the General to King-level, and Bai Qi’s fifth pet still hadn’t been there for long. It may not be my match, right?”
“I know, but let me go this time.”
Xiao Yuan gave Zhou Yan a deep look. Seeing the firm determination in Xiao Yuan’s eyes, Zhou Yan reluctantly nodded.
It was the first time that Xiao Yuan had shown such a strong will to fight.
“Thank you.”
Seeing Zhou Yan agree, Xiao Yuan smiled, nodded at the others, and then walked towards the competition room.
Confused about his own inexplicable loss, Gu Shan was so deep in his thoughts that he nearly bumped into Xiao Yuan.
“You are drained. Go rest in the spectator room.”
Xiao Yuan patted Gu Shan’s shoulder, said, “I’ll take it from here.”
Gu Shan nodded and silently returned to the spectator room, took a seat and stared motionlessly at the screen.
Seeing this, Zhou Yan and the others also stopped talking and attentively watched Xiao Yuan and Bai Qi’s fight.
In the arena.”
Xiao Yuan walked to his position, looked at the still lively insect-grass, and asked: “Great Sun Dragon Cicada, is this another new pet spectre created by you, Bai Qi?”
“I suppose so.”
Bai Qi shrugged. Being both the Sun Beetle and the Green Dragon Bloodline, theoretically the insect-grass is indeed a new spectre.
“Great Sun Dragon Cicada, a mixed blood of the insect-class and dragon-class. Let me appreciate it later. However, now, let’s start the battle.”
A spark flashed in Xiao Yuan’s eyes. A monstrous beast resembling a bear and a dragon emerged from the array with huge, ragged, black wings on its back. As it exerted its overwhelming Dragon aura, it strode towards the insect-grass.”
“Xiao Yuan, Fifth Stage Beastmaster, King-level Death Wing Bear Dragon!”
“Death Wing Bear Dragon? Has Xiao Yuan’s Tardigrade Thunder Dragon evolved?”
Zhou Yan was surprised by Xiao Yuan’s words.
“Yes, it evolved half a month ago.”
Li Mu nodded and said, “I heard it nearly failed during the evolution. If Master Xiao wasn’t there, the Tardigrade Thunder Dragon might have devolved.”
Zhou Yan frowned slightly, while Bai Qiucha explained: “The Tardigrade Thunder Dragon’s life force is strong. Almost no attacks can directly kill it. However, during evolution, its strong life force becomes a limitation. If it’s unlucky, it could even die.”
“That serious?”
“Yes. But after a successful evolution, it’s different. The Death Wing Bear Dragon not only possesses a strong life force but also a powerful ability to attack that the Tardigrade Thunder Dragon lacks.”
Bai Qiucha paused, “Of course, its temperament may become relatively more violent.”
“Violent? That doesn’t quite seem to match Xiao Yuan’s combat style.”
Bai Yuxiao muttered. Xiao Yuan’s combat style mostly played a war of attrition. If he was to suddenly take the initiative to attack ferociously, they would actually feel uneasy.”
“Let’s just watch the match for now and we’ll know the result soon,”
Lu Qing pushed his glasses, interrupting their conversation, and everyone immediately stopped and fixed their eyes on the screen.
