Chapter 275: Battle Beast Fusion, Chimera vs Abyss Hydra
“Beast Fusion!”
The old man roared as rays of dark green light appeared from his body.
A huge monster phantom with two huge snake heads, a body that looked like a dragon and a pair of huge bat wings appeared behind the old man with a roar.
The Twin-headed Chimera’s main body appeared.
It was a Battle Beast that had already entered the mature stage, with a wingspan of more than thirty meters.
The two thick and strong retreating claws were not dragon claws, but two hooves that looked like oxen.
Two giant snake-like heads grew on its long neck with two horns grew on its head.
Its huge body blotted out the sky and toward the Sun.
The entire tavern was not even half the size of it.
Although it was only a phantom, the aura of a level 4 or 9 Battle Beast had vowed the surrounding guards.
Was this the strength of a level 4 expert?
When would a miscellaneous fish like us, who had barely become Beastmasters and could only control level 1 Battle Beasts, be able to possess such enormous strength?
The guards were stuck in the mud of the Netherworld Swamp, unable to move at all.
This battle was no longer a level that they could partic.i.p.ate in.
They could only look up.
“Kid, don’t be a coward. Hurry up and get out.”
The old man had fused with the power of the Twin-headed Chimera, and his entire person seemed to have become much younger. Moreover, he had obtained the ability to float in the air for a short period of time.
Battle Beasts were the same as Foreign Beasts. Although they possessed great power, when they used mana, they were very crude.
Compared to mana, they were more willing to use their powerful physical bodies to bite each other to determine the winner.
Humans were the opposite of Battle Beasts.
Humans were good at manipulating mana. They liked to use the smallest amount of mana to complete the largest magic spell.
After the Battle Beasts merged, the power of humans and Battle Beasts merged into one.
With the wisdom of humans to control the enormous mana of Battle Beasts, the effect was definitely much stronger than the Battle Beasts themselves.
This was not one plus one equals two, but ten or one hundred power buffs.
Although the Swamp Hydra’s power was very powerful and strange, after the old man fused with the Twin-headed Chimera, the old man’s power and his hundred years of combat experience still gave him the right to ignore the Swamp Hydra and shout at Locke.
At this moment, Hathaway, who was resting in Locke’s arms, suddenly became excited.
She panted as she drew circles on Locke’s chest.
“If you can defeat this old guy with only a Battle Beast, I’ll agree to the one you’ve always wanted to try.”
Hathaway giggled, not caring about her injuries at all.
“It seems that you’re ready.”
Locke changed his position to make his eye candy more comfortable.
Then, he straightened his back and pierced through the water. He did not care about the old man’s clamor.
It was only a level 4, rank 9 chimera.
If it had broken through to level 5, Locke would have stayed as far away as possible.
However, it was only level 4 and rank 9, so there was nothing to be afraid of.
Locke could defeat a level 4 Mountain City lord when he was at level 3, let alone now that he had reached level 4. The Twin-headed White Jade Snake had evolved into a swamp nine-headed snake that was not weaker than the Divine Light Dragon.
Hathaway did not expect that Locke, who had just ended the battle, could still be so fierce.
He kept screaming as if he was playing with fire.
Hathaway had no intention of restraining herself and the tavern had been damaged by the battle.
The movements of the two soon spread to the streets.
“B*stard, you dare to look down on me.”
The old man was stunned for a moment, but he immediately understood and became furious.
He flapped his wings and was about to fly to the top of the tavern to unleash his ultimate skill when a huge snake that looked like a bolt of lightning attacked.
The Swamp Hydra was originally waiting for Locke’s summon.
Battle Beasts versus Battle Beasts, and Beastmasters versus Beastmasters were the unchanging rules on the battlefield.
Even if it was a tier 1 Battle Beast, only Beastmasters could fuse with the Battle Beast, and they could easily defeat a tier 3 Battle Beast.
When the old man fused with the tier 4 and rank 9 chimera, the Swamp Hydra obediently dove into the bottom of the swamp and hid.
He thought that as long as Locke summoned it and completed the fusion, he would definitely teach this arrogant old man and Chimera a lesson.
However, he had never thought that Locke had no intention of fusing at all.
In Locke’s opinion, an old man who was more than a hundred years old was not worth his time.
Indeed, the tier five old man he had met in Mountain City had caused Locke to suffer a great defeat.
However, that was mostly because the old man had launched a sneak attack on Hathaway.
If he attacked Locke himself, Locke was confident that even if he was not a match, he would not be captured so easily.
If the mysterious old man’s dragon tooth poison was given to Locke, even if he could not dodge it, Locke would definitely retaliate.
Even if he killed 800 enemies, he would lose 1,000 of his own.
The old man from Cloud City had a huge difference in strength compared to the mysterious old man from Mountain City.
Moreover, Locke had already seen the Chimera’s attributes and skills, and he had shared them with the Swamp Hydra.
The Swamp Hydra had been nurtured by him for so long.
Under the circ.u.mstances of knowing oneself and knowing one’s enemy, if he still could not defeat such an old man, he would be letting down the two sacrificed elves, fire and wind.
Locke’s movements were swift and powerful. Hathaway could not withstand it at all and could only beg for mercy.
The Swamp Hydra sensed Locke’s status and its nine heads let out a crazy roar.
Raindrops of mud hit the old man.
The nine heads of the Swamp Hydra hit him like a windmill.
“Spatial Movement.”
He looked at the nine snake heads that were the size of houses. The corners of his eyes twitched violently and he hurriedly used Spatial Movement.
After the Battle Beasts merged, the speed of Spatial Movement was much faster than that of the Chimera.
In just an instant, the old man had disappeared from where he was.
When he reappeared, he was already a thousand meters away.
“Take this, Firestorm.”
The old man pushed with both hands and violent fire elemental power jumped wildly. Countless fire snakes appeared out of thin air, enveloping the Swamp Hydra.
Roar!
The Swamp Hydra let out a painful roar, its huge body rolling on the ground.
“Hahaha! Animals are animals after all. You wasted your huge mana for nothing.
“I thought it’d be a waste of effort, but I didn’t expect it to be defeated so easily.”
The old man threw his head back and laughed loudly as if the Swamp Hydra’s wail was the most beautiful music in the world.
Whoosh!
Just as the old man was laughing happily, a black shadow flashed past like lightning.
The thick, train-like tail of the Swamp Hydra stretched out from the mud, bringing with it a sharp wind pressure as it lashed out heavily.
“Humph, a small trick.”
The old man flapped his wings lightly and easily dodged this sneak attack.
Although he seemed to be arrogant, the old man had been guarding against this sneak attack.
The apparent relaxation was just to lure the enemy into a trap.
With more than a hundred years of combat experience, he was very clear that he could not be careless in a battle.
The more advantages he had, the more cautious he had to be and the more he had to prevent a counterattack at all times.
