This Summoner Is Too Powerful

Chapter 478 387: Ugly Little Wolf’s Second Awakening - Part 2

But this might not be a bad thing. Most young people are proud and ambitious. Learning to recognize oneself and lower one's posture early might be more helpful for growth.

As for the ugly little wolf at this moment, it was standing in front of the rolling turtle, lifting its hind leg, ready to perform the victor's ceremony.

Fortunately, Li Pu kicked it away in time and then quickly tended to the rolling turtle.

Because this big guy looked like it was on the verge of dying.

Compared to Long Ren's distraction, he was actually always paying attention to the changes on the field.

After completing the Black Dragon Transformation, the ugly little wolf quickly ran around the training field, gathered enough energy, and fired a Wind Thunder Roar.

Originally, as an A+ skill, the Wind Thunder Roar was already very powerful.

In addition, the Source of Thunder increased its lightning power, which greatly enhanced the power of the Wind Thunder Roar's thunder.

Now it seems that the Black Dragon Transformation also enhances wind, thunder, and physique, equivalent to a comprehensive boost for the Wind Thunder Roar.

After a multi-level jump, the power of this A+ skill was no less than that of an S-level skill.

So even at just 2nd turn LV1, it could almost instantly kill the 1st turn LV37 rolling turtle.

But just now, even if Li Pu hadn't intervened, the ugly little wolf wouldn't have been able to cause any threat to the rolling turtle through the so-called victor's ceremony.

Because it seemed as if its body had been drained, it couldn't even pee out a drop of electricity.

Now that each of his three summoned beasts has its own signature killer move, Li Pu was very happy.

However, he did have a little concern.

As the strength of the summoned beasts improved, the rolling turtle seemed to no longer be sufficient as a target.

Fortunately, just as Li Pu was wondering how to motivate Wu Guinan, this guy's fighting spirit was already ignited.

Wu Guinan: "Being friends with a freak like you is surely the sorrow of geniuses like us."

Long Ren: "That's right, I agree."

Wu Guinan: "But during the winter break, I'm going to train hard and get back at you next semester."

Long Ren: "Me too, me too."

Li Pu: "Oh?"

Wu Guinan: "By that time, your summoned beasts won't be able to one-shot me anymore; it'll take at least two moves."

Long Ren: "Look at your ambition. My goal is to last through three moves."

Li Pu: "..."

In any case, it's good that his friends weren't discouraged by this.

Li Pu now just needed to complete one last thing before planning to leave school and go home.

Which was to visit the guardian beast in the abyssal trench and get a meeting gift from Long Zuo.

He had heard from Long Ren that even the Fire Tongs Scorpion got a scale from it later.

Back then, Li Pu secretly thought that once he got a dragon himself, he must go and ask for a benefit too.

If even a creature like the Fire Tongs Scorpion could get one, then the Black Dragon element surely could too.

You know, each scale is worth 200,000, so why not take it?

Moreover, after the ugly little wolf's 2nd turn, he understood even more that the value of dragon scales for him couldn't be measured by a mere 200,000 crystal coins.

So under Long Ren's guidance, they easily made their way back to the bottom of the abyssal trench.

Then, smoothly obtained a scale from Long Zuo.

Upon seeing the ugly little wolf looking a bit like a qilin, Long Zuo seemed a bit surprised. Perhaps because of this, it gave them an especially large scale, two to three times bigger than the one the half-dragon human got before.

After keeping the scale safely, Li Pu was satisfied.

Returning to the dormitory, the group began to say their goodbyes.

The little tree person seemed particularly sad.

Because Li Pu and Wu Guinan had both been accepted as exchange students, next semester they would head directly to Imperial University for a whole semester.

Long Ren, too, although he only stayed here for half a semester, felt it wouldn't be meaningful to remain after they left, so he applied to return to school next semester.

By the time they returned, only the little tree person would be left here.

Maybe by the time Li Pu returned in his second year, it would have already experienced its 1st or even 2nd turn.

Now there weren't many people left at the school; Li Pu and his friends were among the last to leave.

However, Guan Heshi was still at school, working on some research projects.

Upon learning that Li Pu and the others were leaving, he sent the Guan Bird to see them off, taking them directly to the airport in Western City.

Wu Guinan didn't need to take a plane, as his home was in Western City itself.

So he chose to jump out of the vehicle midway in the air; surprisingly, his storage space even contained a parachute, which gave Li Pu a small shock.

Even the rolling turtle and egg turtle wore parachutes.

Long Ren's home was near the imperial capital, so he needed to fly there first and then transfer by car.

As for Li Pu, he had to fly in a different direction.

While sitting in the waiting room, through the glass window, they could see large airplanes parked at the edge of the runway.

On the nose of almost every plane, there was a statue of a gargoyle.

Previously, Li Pu had flown on such planes to Western City, so he knew what they were.

They weren't really statues but were the summoned beasts of the crew's security personnel.

A type of flying creature that, in its statue form, could emit anti-beast magnetic waves.

The airspace within the Federation's borders couldn't be guaranteed as 100% safe.

Even with regular cleanup of flying routes by summoner squadrons, there would still be a few fish that slipped through and harassed passenger planes.

The magnetic waves of these gargoyles could make most flying beasts stay away.

And even if they encounter one with no sense to approach, they could lift their stone state and repel the beasts.

Last time when flying, Li Pu was secretly amazed at these creatures.

But now, looking at them again, they seemed rather ordinary.

To reassure the passengers, each flight's announced crew list also included a note of the summoned beasts' general strength.

Merely E-level 3rd turn gargoyles, he no longer thought highly of them.

He felt that even the ugly little wolf might be able to beat them.

[Attention passengers bound for the Imperial Capital] x3

[Flight number A3415 is now ready for boarding] x3

[Please proceed to the designated gate for boarding] x3

Not long after, the flight number for Long Ren's flight was announced over the broadcast.

"Alright then, see you next year."

Long Ren stood up and gave a casual wave.

"When I get over there, I'll introduce you to the rest of the top ten."

"Hehehehehe…"

The final sinister laugh made him less cool than he appeared.

"Safe travels."

Li Pu wasn't interested in what he mentioned, only waving back.

Soon after, his flight also arrived.

Because summoned beasts couldn't board the plane, he had to let them retreat into their storage space.

After a few hours of flying, Li Pu arrived at his destination city, located on the edge of the Hua region.

This place was even further west than Western City.

After exiting the airport, he smoothly took a high-speed train, then a bus to a small nearby town.

He found a taxi at the town's station, driving all the way to the edge of the city.

Until they reached where there were no roads, and the driver refused to go further, he got out.

Crossing three mountains, leaping two rivers and a cliff.

On the way, he fended off some short-sighted beasts, waited for the scarecrow that fell off the cliff to climb back up, and retrieved the ugly little wolf's Daibo, which had been swept away by the river's current, taking quite a bit of time.

Fortunately, there weren't any magic beasts within a hundred miles, having been entirely cleared by grandpa before, or it could have been more challenging.

In total, from the time he boarded the flight, it took a full 24 hours.

Finally, a week before New Year's Eve, Li Pu returned home.

A research institute nestled at the foot of a mountain.

The outer walls of the institute were made entirely of specially-made steel plates.

Coated with gray protective paint, it blended almost seamlessly with the mountain rock.

Yet the exposed patches of rust showed it had a long history.

Disregarding its remote geographical location, just from its appearance, calling this place home seemed to lack some warmth and human touch.

However, Li Pu didn't care about such things.

Because where there are people, there is home.

"Finally back, whew."

Standing before the cold iron gate, he wiped the sweat from his forehead.
