Chapter 232: Pet.i.te Dragon
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In Happy’s previous life, Silver Wolf had been one of the regrets Happy had in his training to become a powerful player. However, in his new life, he was no longer as pa.s.sionate about fighting against various great players. The betrayal of his love, the destruction of his three years of hard work, and the baffling persecution made him form another goal a few months ago.
He did not wish to interfere with other people’s lives too much.
To him, this was the responsible act. Hence, even though he ran into Silver Wolf, he squashed down his desire to fight him and did not challenge him.
Besides, it was not a good time right then.
With his power in Mystical Realm, his Golden Bell Coc.o.o.n in the ninth realm, Phantasm Body Movement Skill, Dragon Capture and Pet.i.te Dragon, which were the first and second styles of Ten True Dragon Styles, if he fought against any player in a one-on-one battle, he would look as if he was bullying them. Hence, challenging another player was no longer a phrase he could use.
He calmed down, and after reading out loud in the private school for a few hours, he finally managed to increase his Comprehension to 60.
During that period of time, Silver Wolf had left the private school. Not everyone could be like Happy and spend tens of thousands of taels of silver in one go to increase a few points of Comprehension in the early stages of the game.
At the moment the last book disappeared from his hands, Happy released a breath of relief as if a huge weight had been lifted off his shoulders. He stood up from his seat, flung his robe backwards, and under the reverent gazes of the other players, he left the hall without hesitation.
‘I can finally practice sword skills now.’
Once he left the private school, Happy summoned his purplish-red horse without a single word. He then tugged its reins.
“Giddy up!”
The horse galloped out of the city in Wuhu.
With a piercing neigh, the purplish-red horse rose its front hooves high in the air outside White Tiger Forest. Once its feet landed on the ground once more, it paced around and moved back uneasily. No matter what Happy did, the horse refused to take a step further.
Happy naturally knew that the purplish-red horse had been frightened by the aura of the White Tigers that filled the air. It was because they were in the King of Beasts’ territory. Normal animals would definitely not dare to trespa.s.s into such land! However, top-cla.s.s high-grade horses like Hoof Shadow would not be wary and refuse to go forward because of White Tigers’ aura. They were not oppressed by the aura of the powerful. It was one of the many reasons why Hoof Shadows became the prime choice of mounts for countless players during the later stages of the game.
If the mount was terrified by normal aura and might, then would the rider not be heavily embarra.s.sed if the horse got frightened when they went to fight someone?
Whoos.h.!.+
Happy jumped down and put away his purplish-red horse into the Horse Plate. He brought out his Silver Wolf Emperor Breaker Sword, which had a unique and astonis.h.i.+ng appearance, and shot into White Tiger Forest with his blue robes fluttering behind him.
The wild and free roars of tigers in the forest came from the side, and they grew louder the further Happy went into the forest. It sounded like there was someone provoking the White Tigers, and judging by the frequency of the roars, there seemed to be quite a lot of the animals.
Happy did not slow down and soon arrived at the place where the fight was happening.
Little North and Thunderous Battle were moving about, dodging, and counterattacking eight White Tigers with astonis.h.i.+ng presences. The two zombies stood nearby controlling the movements and positions of two other White Tigers who had appeared on the side. The situation might have looked dangerous, but it was within the two men’s range of abilities.
Thunderous Battle and Little North both had high-tier body fortification techniques, and Thunderous Battle’s realm in it was not low. It should have already reached the tenth realm, and he should be able to withstand most of the White Tigers’ attacks.
Since it had not been a long time since Little North had begun to practice Illusory Spirit Body, his body fortification technique had only reached the fifth realm. It was very difficult for him to withstand two White Tigers’ attacks, so he could only lure and guide their attack when Thunderous Battle restrained them. When the defenses of his Illusory Spirit Body were no longer enough, he would immediately ask Thunderous Battle or his zombies to attract the White Tigers’ attention while he ran to the side to quickly restore his qi.
“Boss!”
“Happy?”
Happy’ return lifted the duo’s spirits.
“You’re done?”
The two naturally knew that Happy had left White Tiger Forest to spend his money extravagantly in a private school for the sake of being able to learn the Mystical Realm high-tier sword technique–Seven Stars Sword.
Happy’s return meant that he had successfully reached the Comprehension requirements to practice Seven Stars Sword. When they came to a realization that they were about to witness a Mystical Realm high-tier sword technique, the two became incredibly excited and enthusiastic.
Happy did not say anything, but lifted his Silver Wolf Emperor Breaker Sword and charged into the White Tigers. His gaze focused, and a great presence surged out of his body while golden light covered him.
Whoos.h.!.+
Thunderous Battle and Little North’ reactions were very quick, and they broke free from the streak of White Tigers like cannonb.a.l.l.s charging out of a battlefield. It made all the White Tigers s.h.i.+ft their attention to Happy.
Clang, clang, clang, clang…
White Tigers were, after all, Mystical Realm creatures, and their combat abilities were not to be underestimated. They reacted quickly, and the moment Happy activated his Golden Bell Coc.o.o.n, they roared! Their attacks came like a stream! Happy’s Golden Bell Coc.o.o.n shuddered madly, and the brightness faded away quickly.
“Boss, your equipment!”
When Little North saw that Happy’s Golden Bell Coc.o.o.n had been damaged horrifically after it received such powerful attacks, he was shocked. It was only then that he noticed that Happy was dressed in his blue robes, which did not have any defensive properties, instead of Yellow Dragon Archer Gear, and he quickly cried out to warn him.
Thunderous Battle was also shocked. He tapped on the ground and dashed back to the battlefield like an arrow let loose from a bow. He was prepared to run back into the streak of White Tigers and save Happy, but to his surprise, even though the strength of Golden Bell Coc.o.o.n’s defenses were getting weaker quickly in the face of the White Tigers’ encirclement, Happy did not show any signs of alarm on his face. Instead, he looked confident, as if the fight was in the bag.
Boom!
Before the next round of attacks, an astonis.h.i.+ng aura rose from Happy’s body.
Gate Realm… Blessed Realm… Mystical Realm!
Streams of aura began surging with Happy at the center. Dust flew, and Golden Bell Coc.o.o.n instantly gained a dazzling golden light from its initially dim and l.u.s.terless state.
Bang, bang! Bang, bang!
The White Tigers, with their shocking bodies and presences, were fierce creatures which were as intelligent as humans. They had wanted to tear Happy apart once his Golden Bell Coc.o.o.n’s light dimmed, but when they swung their claws at him again, they felt as if they had knocked into an iron pillar. Happy did not budge in the slightest bit.
All the White Tigers faced the same problem!
Regardless of whether they headb.u.t.ted him, swung at him, or tore at him, they felt as if they were blocked by a st.u.r.dy wall of steel. It shuddered slightly, but withstood the attacks without suffering any damage.
Little North and Thunderous Battle were rendered speechless.
The unexpected scene made Thunderous Battle come to a screeching halt. He stared in disbelief at Happy who was holding his Silver Wolf Emperor Breaker Sword with both hands and had a smile on his face. It was only at that moment that he noticed that the sword Happy held was actually vibrating faintly.
Hum…
There was a barely noticeable sword whistle among the tigers’ roars.
An invisible might and aura rose from Happy’s body!
Once Golden Bell Coc.o.o.n’s defenses were strengthened by Mystical Realm, they increased even more. However, Happy’s Seven Stars Sword, which was at Level 1, also seemed to be displaying some unimaginable effects.
“What’s going on?”
Little North and Thunderous Battle were dumbstruck. They absolutely did not understand what was going on.
Happy moved at that moment.
Silver Wolf Emperor Breaker Sword might have been vibrating and humming like it was very unstable, but Happy swung it in a steady and swift manner. Blood gushed out of a White Tiger nearby.
Whoos.h.!.+
Happy did not move a lot. He let the White Tigers surround and strike his Golden Bell Coc.o.o.n while he swiftly attacked with his sword. He left many wounds on the White Tigers around like a G.o.d of War in battle.
However, this strange scene did not last for long.
Happy had just reached Mystical Realm. He could keep his qi realm and Golden Bell Coc.o.o.n activated for a long period of time, especially when he was attacked by eight White Tigers in a tight encirclement. His qi was drained quickly, and with just two rounds of attacks, his qi realm automatically fell to Blessed Realm.
