Chapter 64 - Buried
Following their orders, both pets rushed forward. The Snake Lizard directly burned a large number of the cub"s thorns and vines on the road ahead.
Soon, they rushed in front of it. One sprayed a powerful poisonous fire at the cub, while the other used mud to block its path.
Alas, the cub had already dodged the moment they attacked, leaving Zhang San and Li Si flabbergasted at its speed.
"Snake Lizard, rush forward and tear off its claws!"
"Flower Pool Devil, bite it to death!"
These two were in their heyday two-on-one and were not afraid.
"Buddy, attack the Flower Pool Devil with Super Vine Whip, and knock down the Snake Lizard with Energy Burst!"
At this time, Su Bai issued his orders.
By then, though, the cub had already summoned its spiritual power. First, a few thick vine whips besieged and trapped the Flower Pool Devil from all directions. Now that it was trapped inside the domain of thorns, the cub"s control of its vine whips became handier.
The Flower Pool Devil struggled fiercely and desperately bit the vine whips but to no avail. Each vine whip had a toughness that this pet could not understand. Instead, a large amount of poisonous and hypnotic powder entered its body along with the thorns, making it gradually lose its ability to resist.
On the other side, the Snake Lizard ignored its trapped comrade. It could have easily rescued it, but Zhang San did not order it to do so. While its ally was under attack was the best time for it to launch a sneak attack.
"Hiss!"
As the Snake Lizard approached, a mouthful of purple-black poisonous fire spewed out, and the hot temperature instantly turned the surrounding into a purgatory.
"Now, buddy!"
Bang bang bang!
At the exact moment, the cub"s mouth suddenly lit up, and dark green energy bullets the size of rice dates flew out one after another.
Unexpectedly, despite these small energy bullets colliding with a flame of nearly twenty centimeters in diameter, they did not get engulfed but caused a violent explosion, instead.
Accompanied by a small energy shockwave, the black Snake Lizard directly rushed out and flickered its claws straight for the cub"s throat.
Bang bang bang!
With another series of energy bullets, the Snake Lizard"s figure swayed as it dodged left and right. However, under the cub"s powerful gunfire, it was still hit by a few bullets. It immediately covered its flesh with its scales. Unfortunately, the paralysis effect attached to the bullet made its body feel like an electric current was charging through it, which greatly reduced its speed.
"Quick, use Tail Dock!"
Upon seeing the bunch of energy bullets that followed, Zhang San yelled at his pet as he cursed wildly in his heart. How could such a scrawny la.s.s be so powerful? Was it not the best only at playing tricks?
The Snake Lizard broke off its tail and threw it out as a stand-in to resist all the attacks.
"Buddy, use Vine Whip to lock it in place, then fire continuously with Energy Burst!"
Su Bai remained calm throughout the battle. The cub had just broken through and was full of spiritual power, so he could order it with confidence.
The earth shook, and the thorns, which had been burned previously by the Snake Lizard, sprouted again, entwining around it like flexible pythons. On the other side, the cub indiscriminately fired energy bullets, showing off the magical effect of its mult.i.tasking ability at this critical moment.
"Hiss!"
The lesser of two evils. The Snake Lizard spat a few fireb.a.l.l.s to resist the far more terrifying energy bullets, but its body was entangled with the thorns and vines, causing the hypnosis and poison effects to erupt at the same time.
Bang bang bang!
When it tore the vines, another bunch of energy bullets flew over. Although it trashed desperately, it was still hit by some. In the end, the Snake Lizard was severely injured and completely lost the ability to defend itself.
Meanwhile, the mid-level servant pet, Flower Pool Devil, had long been poisoned and hypnotized.
"What did you just say? Say it again!" Su Bai jumped out, figuring that this was the best time to act like a boss.
With a puff, Zhang San knelt on the ground. "Big brother, I was just joking with you. Please let bygones be bygones, and just disregard our existence."
"Yes, Brother Su, we both came over to help you practice. We only deliberately said that it"s robbery to achieve the full effect. In fact, we"re all good law-abiding citizens, so how could we possibly do such a despicable thing?"
Li Si also hurriedly made excuses.
They were feeling extremely bitter in their hearts. Having finally found an opportunity to capture Su Bai alone, both originally wanted to teach him a lesson, but who knew that he was a big boss with a pet that had broken through to a high-level servant? Furthermore, the power of its skills were even more outrageous.
Instead of catching him, they had obviously sent themselves to be whaled on. It was simply a ridiculous feat.
They had no other choice but to kneel and call him big boss.
"No, you made me very upset. Buddy, dig a hole and bury them."
Su Bai ordered indifferently.
"Howl! ヽ( ̄▽ ̄)ノ"
The cub summoned two vine whips and directly tied the two together.
"F*ck, brother—big brother, don"t bury us; please don"t bury us. We"ll give you money. Can you forgive us?"
Upon hearing his threat, both boys panicked and almost called him "dad".
"How much money do you have?" Su Bai glanced at them. Both were clearly poor yet still wanted to pretend. If they had money, they would not have come to rob him.
"A total of 5,000 yuan. We have exactly that much. Big brother, let me go, and I"ll find someone to transfer the money—"
Before they finished speaking, Su Bai directly walked over and took their cell phones. He then turned to Purple Jade and said, "Bury them!"
"Dad, we were in the wrong—"
"Say another word of b*llsh*t, and I"ll drag you out to feed the Blood-bursting Mosquitoes!" he shouted.
The two trembled and shut their mouths quickly, thinking how if they managed to escape this time, they would never provoke this guy even in death.
Ten minutes later, they were both tied up and buried in the ground, with only their heads exposed.
A rattan hung on a tree in front of them, and their phones were tied to its other end.
"Work hard, guys. You can call for help by licking this rattan and breaking it. I"m confident that you two can do it."
The laughing Su Bai carried his backpack, while the cub tied two large bags of volcanic rocks with rattan and then dragged them away.
"Dad, don"t go…"
Zhang San and Li Si stared and shouted desperately at the leaving boy.
However, not long after, Su Bai had resolutely disappeared from their sight. The two cursed quietly for a while, then they looked at the spiked rattan in front of them. Would their tongues not break if they licked it?
The distance between the two could just barely reach the edge of the rattan.
Zhang San hesitated for a while and licked it.
"F*ck! It hurts…"
...
...
"Yes, this is it. Buddy, dig down to see if there are any bones."
Su Bai found the place where the monsters and people were buried according to the information he had received. He then asked the cub to dig up the monsters.
"Howl! ┑( ̄Д ̄)┍"
About ten minutes later, Purple Jade called him, indicating that there were no bones at all.
"Not one? Did someone dig everything? That"s impossible, isn"t it?" The boy scratched his head. How could there be no bones left? It was impossible.
After hesitating for a while, he shook his head. "Let"s go back; it seems like we"ll have to buy the undead"s crystal nuclei."
Although there might be some spirit bones in the place where people were buried, he decided to give up in the end.
Those who had lost their lives in the disaster were too pitiful, and he did not want to disturb their resting place.
