Chapter 429: Chapter 425: Snow Doll’s First Battle
Before, Bai Qi had also asked about Nicholas and the Cowskin Snake’s situation. Luo Xiang mentioned that Master Aleta seemed to be quite interested in Nicholas, allowing him to stay in Eden for a while; he didn’t expect he would return so early.
“Big sis Aleta said there’s nothing more to teach me, so I came back,”
Nicholas nodded, saying.
“Nothing more to teach? Yo, you graduated then.”
Bai Qi immediately gave a thumbs up upon hearing this. It was a story arc common in martial arts novels — if there was nothing more to teach, it meant you had learned everything.
“You’re overthinking it; this stupid dragon was kicked out.”
The Cowskin Snake popped its head out from behind Nicholas, ruthlessly exposing Nicholas’s lies.
“When I was with the Dragon Emperor, even the youngest dragons were better than this stupid dragon.”
“Is that really what happened?”
Bai Qi looked at Nicholas suspiciously. Seeing the latter’s slightly embarrassed look, he sighed helplessly.
He had thought that Nicholas might have gotten in Master Aleta’s good graces this time. Instead, he had been expelled.
“Well, it’s understandable that Master Aleta would find him disappointing considering her strength. Anyway, he’s still a legend, isn’t he?”
Bai Qi patted Nicholas and said, “Good thing we plan to go through the Twilight Tomb, at least with your protection I can explore more confidently.”
Originally, he just wanted to challenge the four or five levels previously validated by Bai Heguang. His experience in the Elemental World was still a bit scary to recall.
Now that Nicholas was back, they could fully enjoy themselves~
“Twilight Tomb?”
Nicholas was stunned at first, then raised his head proudly, saying, “Leave it to me, no matter who we face, I’ll protect you!”
Bai Qi nodded satisfactorily. If Nicholas had been with him in Fire Element World, he wouldn’t have needed to be so rushed.
Hmm, but it seemed Nicholas might not have been able to defeat that Flame Demon anyway.
The two humans, a dragon, and a snake, one after the other, entered the Twilight Tomb. The young Beast Masters around them looked at each other, it took them quite a while to react.
“Did I… just see a giant dragon?”
“Not one, but two. Didn’t you see that there was another bone dragon?”
“Bone dragon? Is that Bai Qiucha, the son of the Legendary Celestial Brilliance? So, is the person next to him Bai Qi?”
“Bai Qi? Don’t tell me that giant dragon belongs to Bai Qi…”
“They bring giant dragons to battle in a dungeon, yet we’re all Beast Masters. Why is the gap so big?”
“No need to envy them, it won’t do us any good after all…”
…
Third floor of the Twilight Tomb.
Just like the last time Bai Qi came, it was still incredibly gloomy. The dense power of shadow constantly surged towards them, as if wanting to drag them into this bone grassland.
Crackle…Crackle…
It seemed to detect the presence of outsiders, and an army of skeleton soldiers crawled out from the ground, swaying their way towards Bai Qi and the others.
“Just some small-fry? I can blow them away with a sigh.”
Nicholas was somewhat disappointed when he saw this. He was looking forward to displaying his current strength, but all they got was a bunch of skeleton soldiers?
“I’m here to train my beasts, not for you to show off. Keep it in check.”
Seeing the skeleton soldiers staggering around with the blow of Nicholas’s dragon wing, Bai Qi couldn’t help but roll his eyes.
“Alright…”
Nicholas pointed his finger somewhat aggrievedly, then turned into a human form, quietly following behind Bai Qi and Bai Qiucha.
Without the interference from Nicholas, the skeleton soldiers got up again and came in droves towards the pair.
“I’ll try out Thunderbolt Poplar’s combat power first.”
Bai Qiucha, ready for the hunt, summoned Thunderbolt Poplar first. Holding the Digital Tyrannosaurus Machine in one hand and eyes staring sternly, he loudly said, “Thunderbolt Poplar, Leap Evolution!”
Thunder!
Thunderbolt Poplar’s roar corresponded, an intense melody echoed as the brilliant Evolution Light enveloped its whole body, causing its shape to change again.
Shortly after, the light disappeared, and Thunderbolt Imperial Rat, imbued with golden thunder, descended from the sky. Without waiting for Bai Qiucha’s command, it turned into a thunderbolt and rushed into the sea of bones.
Although its growth level wasn’t very high, the combination of King-level bloodline and thunder attribute crushed these lowest-level skeleton soldiers. It easily wiped out a large area.
“Although it can only sustain for up to two minutes, its combat power during this period is no less strong. Leap Evolution really is the gospel for Spirit Controllers.”
Seeing the Thunderbolt Imperial Rat rampant among the skeleton soldiers, a smile crept onto Bai Qiucha’s face, even happier than when watching the Bone Dragon slay the King Creature.
However, when Bai Qiucha looked at Bai Qi and the others, he found Bai Qi chuckling quietly.
“What’s wrong? Is there something wrong with the Thunderbolt Imperial Rat?”
Bai Qiucha looked puzzled. Bai Qi noticed his slip, composed himself, and said, “Nothing, I just thought you looked cool when you yelled ‘Leap Evolution’.”
Hearing Bai Qi’s words, Bai Qiucha finally realized, his face turning red.
He didn’t feel it just then, but thinking about it, it did seem a little embarrassing.
Eventually, Thunderbolt Imperial Rat’s evolution time ended, and Bai Qiucha withdrew it back into the Green Leaf Ball immediately.
“Two minutes and thirteen seconds. The evolution duration has increased.”
Bai Qiucha glanced at the time on his phone and carefully put away the Green Leaf Ball.
“Leap evolution gives you an overbearing battle strength, but once it’s mastered, it can last even longer.”
Bai Qi nodded, then called out the Snow Doll.
Whirr, whirr?
(Master, where are we? Everything here is so strange.)
The Snow Doll, which had lived in the Fire Element World since it was young, was extremely curious about this novel world. The skeleton soldiers, who looked completely different from elemental creatures, made it even more curious.
“Those are our enemies. Your next task is to kill them. Understand?”
Whirr, whirr…
(I think I understand…)
Jie Ta nodded his head in confusion, but before he could fully understand, he was thrown by Bai Qi directly into the group of skeleton soldiers.
Whirr, whirr!
The sudden action by Bai Qi startled the Snow Doll, but before it could react, it was swallowed by the infinite skeleton soldiers.
“So that’s your Six Pets? Elemental creatures, surely you didn’t form a contract with them in the Elemental World, right?”
Bai Qiucha curiously watched the bewildered Snow Doll dodging within the group of skeletons and said, “From what I can see, it seems quite timid?”
Awuu, awuu?
(Timid? You humans are too young.)
Hearing Bai Qiucha’s words, Beta, who was originally lying on the side watching, suddenly lifted its head. The look in its eyes was full of contempt.
“It’s a bit timid, so that’s why we’re here to build up its courage.”
Bai Qi shrugged his shoulders, although training courage was only one goal. He also wanted to see if there would be any other forms when the Snow Doll’s mood continued to fluctuate.
Whoosh!
Just then, a cold wind blew across the grassland, directly freezing the skeleton soldiers within a hundred meters. The source of the cold wind was naturally the slightly frightened Snow Doll.
“Tsk… it didn’t even change its form. The intimidation ability of these skeleton soldiers is not enough.”
Looking at the gradually calming Snow Doll, Bai Qi couldn’t help but click his tongue. He then couldn’t resist giving Beta a few glances.
Awuu, awuu!
(Human, what did your look just now mean!)
“Nothing, I just thought you looked better.”
Bai Qi casually replied. Scared of dogs but not of skeletons, had the Snow Doll been bitten by a dog before?
There wouldn’t be Arctic Ice Wolves in the Fire Element World.
While Bai Qi was puzzled, the Snow Doll had already encountered the second batch of skeleton soldiers. The Snow Doll had seemingly adapted to the situation, exhaling a gust of icy wind, creating a sudden blizzard that froze the skeleton soldiers into ice sculptures.
“Elemental creatures do indeed possess extraordinary talents. Although its level is almost the same as the Thunderbolt Mouse, its output is so much stronger?”
Bai Qiucha sighed in admiration upon seeing this, and Bai Qi nodded in agreement.
Though boosted by king bloodline, it had such impressive output at the third level. Elemental species merit their reputation as a natural mage profession.
However, he was not just interested in that.
Rubbing his chin, Bai Qi looked around and finally spotted several Nightmare Knights on a nearby hill.
Finally, something big has come~
“Jie Ta, go try to defeat those guys.”
Whirr, whirr?
The Snow Doll curiously looked at the Nightmare Knights, but after sensing their powerful aura, it instinctively ran in Bai Qi’s direction.
When you encounter something stronger than yourself, you must run away. That was the only thing it had learned in the Fire Element World.
The Nightmare Knights obviously would not let go of such an obvious target like the Snow Doll. They rushed to the Snow Doll’s side almost instantly. Their Bone Long Spears, burning with the flames of nightmares, ruthlessly stabbed at the Snow Doll.
Whirr, whirr!
(Please don’t bully me!)
On seeing that, the Snow Doll let out an alarm. Its originally azure blue eyes turned fiery red.
The Snow Doll’s body instantly melted into a pool of clear water, deftly avoiding the Nightmare Knight’s attack.
Not only that, the ice that had frozen the skeleton soldiers also melted, turning into a wave that rushed towards the Nightmare Knight.
“As I thought, it changes forms when it gets nervous.”
Seeing the transformation of Jie Ta into a Water Spirit Child, Bai Qi nodded slightly. Meanwhile, Bai Qiucha seemed quite taken aback and said, “Bai Qi, isn’t your Six Pet the Snow Doll? How did it change into a Water Spirit Child?”
“Jie Ta’s situation is a bit special. Although it has the appearance of a Snow Doll, it’s a king creature of the mythical species.”
Bai Qi shrugged his shoulders and explained the situation of the Snow Doll to Bai Qiucha.
“A mythical species King… Snow Doll?”
Upon hearing this, Bai Qiucha seemed even more confused. Isn’t it a common fact that the stronger an elemental species, the larger its size? Why did everything seem off with Bai Qi?
Moreover, even if it’s a mythical species, changing the form is fine, but how did it completely change its race?
Indeed, none of the creatures that Bai Qi has contracted are normal…
