Chapter 16 Vava's First Battle
Chapter 16 Vava's First Battle
After swallowing the last small jar of Wawa No. 1 nutritional medicine that Xu Xian was carrying, Wawa felt a sense of comfort throughout.
After a while.
"Croak!!"
Wawa raised her arms, looking as if she had regained her energy.
"It's almost time." Xu Xian looked at the sky, which was gradually darkening.
Wawa took a deep breath and then exhaled heavily.
What follows will be its first battle since its inception, and it's impossible not to be nervous.
However, with the beast tamer by his side, his tension lessened considerably.
"Keep the video on." Takagi sent a message in the four-person chat group.
Four faces quickly appeared on the phone screen.
Takagi said, "Be careful, and act within your capabilities."
Xu Xian knew that he was mainly saying this to him.
After all, the three of them knew each other well, and he was the only newcomer.
The four of them chatted on their phones, exchanging a few words here and there, until it got completely dark.
The nights in the countryside are deeper and darker than those in the city.
In the far distance, some lights can be seen twinkling.
Those were the neon lights of Tree City, bright and dazzling, yet no wild spirit beast dared to disturb them.
"Coming!" Wang Qiang's voice came from the phone.
Xu Xian glanced at him; the phone was showing him taking a picture of the dimly lit environment.
Suddenly, two scarlet eyes flashed in the darkness, and the sound of its wings flapping was like a small electric motor with a piercing tearing sound.
[At this point, I hope readers will remember our domain name 1110 ...
"Croak!" Wawa cried out, and Xu Xian shifted his gaze from his phone to what was in front of him, where the fist-sized monster he had seen on the phone had appeared.
One, two, three... fifty, one hundred and nine!
The Eroding Locust is an insect-type creature, classified as a low-grade black iron, with the innate ability of "Swarm Toxin" and no other skills.
When the number of locusts exceeds one hundred, their innate ability 'swarm toxin' will be secreted from their bodies on its own.
At this point, the locust will automatically enter its life countdown.
However, during this process, some locusts will undergo toxic mutations and possess the special property of "poison".
At this point, the Eclipse Locust's racial level rose directly from the lower grade of Black Iron to a higher grade, becoming a mid-grade Black Iron spirit beast with both insect and poison attributes, and successfully mastered the basic skill "Poison Fang".
Xu Xian looked at the 109 fist-sized locusts, each with its claws gleaming with a faint green light and drool dripping from their mouths.
Beneath its scarlet eyes were sharp claws like daggers, and its buzzing wings flapped incessantly, a sound that sent shivers down one's spine.
Xu Xian frowned, his face showing surprise.
Xu Xian had initially thought they were just low-grade Black Iron Erosion Locusts, but now it turns out that these fist-sized Erosion Locusts are all mid-grade Black Iron. Xu Xian didn't know much about this kind of spirit beast, but he had carefully checked the information while waiting for Gao Mu and his two companions. Judging from their size, each of these Erosion Locusts probably has an energy level of at least the fifth level of the initial stage.
"Is the toxic mutation of the grasshopper so easy?" Xu Xian wondered.
Filled with doubt, these rice-eating locusts, though they had evolved once, still had very low intelligence. They instinctively wanted to devour rice leaves and grains to replenish their life force, but were intimidated by the pressure emanating from the blood aura of various high-level spirit beasts within the blood monument.
"Waaah!" Xu Xian pointed to one of the locusts, "Catch it with your telekinesis."
Takagi, Wang Qiang, and Liu Mei: "!!"
The three of them were all startled when they heard the voice on the phone and looked at it.
The mental attribute skill, psychic power?
"Croak!" Wawa's eyes gleamed with blue light.
With a flick of his left wrist, an invisible hand gripped a locust, causing it to plummet to the ground and fall unconscious.
Xu Xian's phone happened to capture this scene, and Gao Mu and the other two were immediately shocked.
This frog junior actually knows psychic telekinetic abilities!!
For spirit beasts with the spirit attribute, psychic skills can only be considered basic skills.
Although it is the foundation, its upper limit is not low, and many mental attribute skills can even be extended by mental power.
Of course, the key point is not that, but that a frog junior actually learned telekinesis at the intermediate level one. What an incredible talent that is!
Wawa used her telekinesis to send the unconscious locusts to Xu Xian's feet. Xu Xian continued to command, "Don't be shy, use water arrows to wipe them out!"
As he spoke, he glanced at the footage taken by the other three people on his phone.
On Takagi's side, the Firehound unleashed a mid-level skill, "Flame Breath."
A thick pillar of fire swept away a large swath of locusts, charring them and sending them falling to the ground.
Wang Qiang's rock wolf attack wasn't that strong; only one "ground spike" protruded, directly stringing together three closely packed grasshoppers like a candied hawthorn.
Liu Mei's flower parrot has the weakest attack power, but it comes with a hypnotic scent similar to "floral fragrance".
The trumpet-shaped flowers above stretched to their limit, and a large amount of pink powder drifted like smoke, making each locust sway precariously.
Xu Xian nodded secretly.
As a sophomore at Tree City University, the skill proficiency of his three spirit beasts was not low.
The power of the skills is also quite impressive.
Among them, Takagi's Firehound was the most powerful. Under the four "Blazing Breaths", except for two or three locusts that instinctively ran away when they felt their lives were threatened, the rest were all burned into roasted locusts by the Firehound.
However, after four consecutive "Blazing Breath" attacks, the Firehound's tender red tongue lolled out wildly, and it was panting heavily, clearly indicating that it had expended a lot of energy.
The gaze returned.
Xu Xian looked at the water arrow that Wawa spat out.
Thanks to my improved proficiency with water rockets this morning.
Vava is now using it with ease and with reduced energy consumption.
With a single spit, three water arrows shot out.
Despite their small size, only about the length of a baby's arm, these arrows possessed a penetrating power comparable to that of arrows fired from a modern composite bow.
These locusts were only at the initial level five or six in terms of energy; a single water arrow easily pierced their bodies, bringing out splattered green blood.
The water jets didn't consume too much energy for Wawa, but after continuously spitting out water jets, Wawa couldn't help but start panting heavily.
As a beast tamer, Xu Xian could sense that half of the energy in Wawa's body had been consumed.
Meanwhile, many of the locusts that erode crops were eliminated.
He was angry at Vawa, but dared not enter the area radiated by the Blood Stele because of it.
Although its intelligence is very low, it knows that it will be impossible to enter this place tonight to get the food it wants.
The locusts turned around and tried to fly away.
"Don't let them get away, Wawa, try using all your mental power to bind them and smash them into the ground!" Xu Xian suddenly spoke up.
Vawa did not hesitate.
His whole body was suddenly bursting with blue light.
An invisible force surged from its body like a gust of wind, covering the remaining eighty-odd locusts.
"Quack—Quack!!"
Wawa roared and slammed his arms down hard.
Instantly, it seemed as if a tremendous force was crashing down from above the locusts, pressing them down and slamming them into the ground like falling rocks.
Unfortunately, despite its seemingly powerful tactic, the locusts did not suffer heavy casualties.
Apart from the twenty-odd birds that were stunned and knocked unconscious, the rest flew up and fled in panic.
The person who started all this collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.
A thumbs-up was held up in front of him. Wawa glanced to the side and saw Xu Xian's gentle smile. "Well done!"
