Chapter 234: Fierce Beast Eating Wood in Illusions
However, the reward this time was a little special. It was for the pet beast to comprehend powerful skills.
Fierce Beasts were the same as divine pets. Most of them had comprehended skills through continuous battles.
Experts believed that this kind of skill came from the bloodline of Fierce Beasts and needed to be stimulated through continuous battles.
The more skills the pet beast learned, the better it was.
If they were lucky, they might even be able to comprehend some of the more powerful skills.
For example: the explosive power of the Berserk Bear.
Following Elisa’s mission, Lugh soon met with thirteen members of the emergency team.
Among them were Bruce and Colin. It seemed that they had lost at least two Gold-tier beasts in the last battle.
“Captain.”
“h.e.l.lo, everyone. Get ready. We’ll set off in half an hour.”
“Yes.”
The thirteen Gold-tier Beast Masters were all packed up in five minutes and appeared in front of Lugh.
Even Lugh felt that it was a little exaggerated to gather like this.
After all, the management of the members of an ordinary Emergency Response Team was relatively lax.
However, seeing that everyone was full of energy, Lugh was happy as well.
After registering, Lugh sat on Bruce’s Azure Eagle and rushed to the nest of the Black-Gold Armored Spiders.
This time, their destination was not Hepeng Valley.
With the high-alt.i.tude reconnaissance of the Stormhawk, after flying for seven days, Lugh and the rest finally arrived at the first Black-Gold Armored Spider nest.
A thousand meters away from the nest, a Gold-tier Black-Gold Armored Spider unintentionally approached Lugh and the rest. Without thinking, Lugh jumped up and killed them with one punch.
[Ding! Your Divine Pet, Berserk Bear, has killed a Gold Mid-Tier Black-Gold Armored Spider. EXP: 10,000,000!]
“Captain?”
“Captain, why did you kill it?”
“Yes, Captain.”
…
Lugh said casually, “This Black-Gold Armored Spider can’t even take a single punch from me. It must be useless. It won’t be of much help in improving your combat power.”
Everyone looked at each other in silence.
Lugh’s strange strength could even withstand a Rock Armored Rhinoceros, let alone a Black-Gold Armored Spider.
Soon, the nearby Black-Gold Armored Spider heard the noise and ran over.
In the end, they were all killed by Lugh’s punch.
When everyone saw Lugh’s violent actions, they didn’t even dare to say a word.
He was really too strong.
Even a Top-tier Gold Fierce Beast couldn’t withstand a casual punch from Lugh.
After killing more than twenty Black-Gold Armored Spider, just when everyone thought that Lugh was going to continue killing, Lugh suddenly pointed at a Black-Gold Armored Spider and said, “That one, look at that one. That one looks pretty good.”
Everyone looked over. They did not see anything special about an ordinary Top-tier Gold Black-Gold Armored Spider.
It was the same as the other Black-Gold Armored Spider that had died in Lugh’s hands.
Lugh reminded them, “Look, its blade legs are moving on the rock wall. Is it stabbing deeper?”
Lugh could see through the detailed information of Fierce Beasts and knew about the Black-Gold Armored Spider’s talent. Naturally, he could deduce it from the back.
That Black-Gold Armored Spider had an ordinary Sharp Blade Legs talent, so its attack power was stronger.
Some members of the team observed it and indeed saw some clues.
“Either it’s heavier than the other Top-tier Gold Black-Gold Armored Spider, or its knife-foot is sharper. Which one of you wants it?”
“The Captain has good taste.”
“But it seems to be running away.”
“It was scared by the Captain.”
…
Lugh smiled and said, “Don’t worry, he won’t be able to escape.”
The Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic b.u.t.terfly appeared beside him.
Lugh pointed at the Black-Gold Armored Spider that was running away on the rock wall and said to the Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic b.u.t.terfly, “Let it come over. Don’t let your mind control it. Just use an illusion.”
The Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic b.u.t.terfly nodded.
Then, everyone saw that the Black-Gold Armored Spider that was planning to escape turned around twice and ran in their direction.
“Who wants it?”
“I’ll do it.”
Bruce stood up.
“The rest of you, back off.”
When the Black-Gold Armored Spider ran in front of Bruce, Lugh had the Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic b.u.t.terfly dispel the illusion.
Bruce released the Black Forest Boa and, together with the Azure Eagle, easily subdued the Black-Gold Armored Spider.
Lying on the crown of a tree far away from the Black-Gold Armored Spider, everyone saw that there were many Black-Gold Armored Spiders surrounding the nest.
Lugh pointed at the entrance of the nest and said, “That one, squatting on the rock, I think it’s very strong.”
“Captain, how did you see it?”
“It stood tall and seemed to be very arrogant. I saw the light in its eyes.”
“But they are so close to the nest. Once we get close, we might be surrounded, and they might escape.”
Lugh turned to the Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic b.u.t.terfly lying on the tree trunk and said, “Tell that Black-Gold Armored Spider on the rock to come over.”
Soon, the members of the team saw that the Black-Gold Armored Spider on the rock seemed to have seen delicious food. It jumped up from the rock and with a few jumps and burrowed into the bushes where they were.
It was lying on the ground and gnawing on a piece of wood. Its eyes were intoxicated, as if it was tasting a supreme delicacy.
Poor guy. It was clearly a ferocious carnivorous Gold-tier beast.
Now, it was actually hugging a piece of rotten wood and gnawing on it with a look of relish.
All the members of the team looked at Lugh’s beautiful Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic b.u.t.terfly.
It was too terrifying to pull a Gold Top-tier beast into an illusion so easily.
If the Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic b.u.t.terfly were to deal with them, they would most likely not be able to escape.
“What are you still standing there for? Don’t you want it?”
“Yes.”
…
The team members successfully captured another Black-Gold Armored Spider.
“Captain, now there are two more.”
“Those two don’t look very strong. Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic b.u.t.terfly, kill them.”
The two Black-Gold Armored Spiders stabbed their sharp blades into their soft abdomen.
More than ten team members swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
…
[Ding! Your Divine Pet, Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic b.u.t.terfly, has been upgraded to Middle-Tier Gold.]
After seven days, all thirteen Gold-tier Black-Gold Armored Spiders that the party members needed had been gathered.
None of the thirteen party members were dissatisfied.
After receiving the notification that the mission had been completed, Lugh did not hesitate and immediately chose to let the Berserk Bear comprehend a skill to try.
The Berserk Bear had learned a new skill, and he could use it as well.
[Ding! Your Divine Pet, Berserk Bear has learned a skill — Earth-Shaking Mountain.]
[Earth-Shaking Mountain: When this pet beast stomps on the ground, it will form a powerful shockwave that will cause the surrounding land to shake violently. If it is strong enough, it can bounce up the surrounding enemies and even cause a large-scale collapse of the ground.]
Lugh looked at the system’s introduction of this skill seriously.
This skill not only required the earth attribute, but also a powerful strength. It was indeed tailor-made for the Berserk Bear.
Moreover, Lugh felt that this skill was quite cool and suitable for him.
After returning to the seventh party, Elisa was very satisfied with Lugh’s mission completion rate.
“Oh right, your family has been brought to Skylight City a few days ago. You can go back and take a look.”
Lugh was pleasantly surprised. “Really?”
“Yes. Go back and take a look.” Elisa smiled. “It’s been hard on you these few days. I’ll give you three days of vacation.”
“Thank you, Captain.”
After returning to the inner city of Skylight City by military vehicle, Lugh went straight to the villa.
Just as he pushed the door open, Lugh saw Hestia fighting with the maid for the mop.
“Aunty!”
Seeing Lugh, she immediately let go of the mop.
“Aunty, what are you doing?”
“I have nothing to do. I just want to mop the floor, but she won’t let me.”
The maid looked at him with some grievance.
“Are you still used to living here these few days?”
She said helplessly, “I’m still not used to it. There was a vegetable field in Seven Star City. I’ve scattered the vegetable seeds. I was just about to pick them, but I ended up moving here again.”
“It’s okay. We can also plant them here. If you can’t handle all of them, let them help.”
“Is that okay?”
The maid quickly said, “We can help. We all know how to plant vegetables.”
“You might not be used to it now, but you’ll get used to it in the future.” Lugh did not see Xu Xiaoxiao’s figure, so he asked, “Where’s Xiaoxiao?”
“She went to school. I hope she can make new friends.”
“Yeah.” Lugh nodded. “I just want to make this place safer. After Starry City is gone, Seven Star City’s situation isn’t too good either.”
Hestia said, “I understand what you’re thinking. It’s also good to move here. It’s quite safe.”
At night, Xu Xiaoxiao finally returned.
When she saw Lugh, Xu Xiaoxiao was quite happy.
“Xiaoxiao, how is it? Did you make any new friends at school?”
Xu Xiaoxiao nodded. “Yes.”
In just a few short months, Lugh realized that Xiaoxiao had grown.
