Light Spring Murmur
Chapter 115: Ice Dragon Wormworm VS Soul-Possessed Bone Dragon
At this moment, Shi Yu smiled after hearing Chong Chong's declaration to take the lead.
This worm, it turns out, has its eyes on wearing equipment.
Can't beat you barehanded? Can't beat you with a full set of +20 golden legendary equipment?
Indeed, the abnormality of Expert-level Mirage is that it can strengthen the illusion with external objects.
If this ability isn't taken into account, saying that Chong Chong's full-strength is only at the level of an Extraordinary-level ferocious beast from a Low-grade Commander race is a bit unfair to all the skill points he painstakingly added.
He already leveled it to Expert-level, why use it like it's only at the Proficient-level!
However, Shi Yu had a strange expression.
Chong Chong is ruthless.
If he remembered correctly, Chong Chong caught a cold when it trained with ice-type energy crystals and Ice Dragon Whiskers, and spent several days wrapped in a quilt, showing a physiological rejection of cold.
Ice-type energy crystals are fine... but the Ice Dragon Whiskers used by that Dream Shell, even if it isn't a Seventh-level resource targeting Overlord-level creatures, it must be close, right?
As a Green Silkworm, wearing such equipment would naturally be a huge burden.
Of course, with great burden comes great reward.
Chong Chong, who uses Ice Dragon Whiskers and ice-type energy crystals, can create an Ice Dragon whose combat power is pitiful in terms of skills, only capable of using some basic ice-type moves, but it undoubtedly possesses the physical qualities of a dragon, making it very durable.
Just like the Ice Dragon illusion Eleven encountered, its physical quality was outrageous, and its control over elemental energy was also outrageous.
It was completely equivalent to an Overlord race cub without Super or High-level skills but with strong physical strength.
This was already very strong. Just with this alone, it felt like it could contend with ordinary Monarch race creatures. After all, a real Ice Dragon is an Overlord race, and crushing the same-level Commander race creatures is as easy as crushing a bug.
In that case, Chong Chong does have the capital to participate in the professional assessment competition.
Previously, the Ice Dragon Whiskers and ice-type energy crystals were all external forces, and Chong Chong's use was burdensome, so Shi Yu didn't count it into Chong Chong's combat power. Now that Chong Chong wants to try again, it's not impossible...
"How else can we compete? Let's just compete with full strength."
"If you're afraid of affecting the assessment, you might as well just give up." Yu Shu smiled, hoping Shi Yu would back down when faced with difficulties.
He didn't plan to fight one-on-one. After all, his strength lay in pet team battles.
"2 vs. 2?"
"Okay, but shouldn't we first deal with this Earth Rock Dragon Lizard and see what's inside?" Shi Yu said.
"It?" Yu Shu shook his head and glanced at the Earth Rock Dragon Lizard, not paying much attention.
Just an Earth Rock Dragon Lizard of a Low-grade Commander race. Even if it awakened Intimidation, its combat power might only be comparable to the Thunderous Lion Shi Yu encountered during the basic test, with an energy value of just over 1,000.
For a genius like Yu Shu, whose single Bone Dragon has nearly 3,000 energy value, this Earth Rock Dragon Lizard is a ferocious beast that can be killed with a wave of his hand.
"One point, I'll take it."
Yu Shu didn't ask for Shi Yu's opinion and directly ordered his pet to attack.
In the professional assessment, regardless of the race level of the ferocious beast, as long as the growth level reaches the Extraordinary level, hunting them is worth 1 point. Therefore, hunting a powerful ferocious beast like the Earth Rock Dragon Lizard is really a thankless task, but that's for ordinary examinees.
Yu Shu's eyes were full of arrogance, and he looked down on this kind of creature with the word "Dragon" in its name but wasn't a Dragon-type.
"Roar..."
At this moment, the Earth Rock Dragon Lizard's heart skipped a beat, and it suddenly realized that something was wrong.
Now, now doesn't seem like a good time to watch the show???
It subconsciously wanted to burrow into the ground and return to the valley first. Just then, Yu Shu's Nether Bone Wyrm took flight. At the same time, a ball of green soul flames surged within its skeletal body, forming a dragon shape that wrapped around the Nether Bone Wyrm's entire body!
At that moment, the Nether Bone Wyrm's aura became extremely terrifying. Even without Dragon Might, it made the Earth Rock Dragon Lizard feel the soul pressure of a Dragon-type creature!
[Name]: Nether Bone Wyrm
[Attribute]: Undead, Dragon
[Race Level]: High-grade Commander
[Race Skills]: Dragon Claw (Mid-level Dragon-type Skill), Dragon Breath (High-level Dragon-type Skill), Corpse Bone Enhancement (High-level Undead-type Skill), Skeletal Reconstruction (High-level Undead-type Skill)
[Name]: Dragon Soul (Fragmented)
[Attribute]: Undead, Dragon
[Race Level]: Low-grade Commander
[Race Skills]: Possession (High-level Undead-type Skill), Soul Flame (High-level Undead-type Skill)
Two Commander race pets, through the Possession skill, almost instantly completed the fusion!!
In the sky, the Nether Bone Wyrm, wrapped in green soul flames, suddenly condensed a dark black fire breath in its mouth!!!
A powerful combination skill with dragon, undead, and fire properties roared out!!
Whoosh!!!
The scorching Dragon Breath flame swept over.
Below, the Earth Rock Dragon Lizard roared and pebbles flew up around it.
Faced with the attack, it instantly rolled up a High-level skill, Rock Sand Storm, to resist.
The sand and rocks of the sky were twisted into a force that crashed into the Dragon Flame.
However, the Soul Flame Dragon Breath formed by the Dragon Soul possessing the Nether Bone Wyrm, "Bang", almost instantly pierced through the Rock Sand Storm. Under the Earth Rock Dragon Lizard's horrified expression, it turned into raging flames that engulfed it in purgatory!
"Roar—"
A scream from the Earth Rock Dragon Lizard came from the dark green flame purgatory.
The combat power of the two sides was not at the same level at all.
"Are you still planning to compete?" Yu Shu said with a smile.
He had the pride that most Dragon Tamers had, with absolute confidence in his strength.
Not far away, Shi Yu, Eleven, and Chong Chong silently watched this scene.
Flashy.
Isn't it just killing a lizard?
"Ying." Eleven curled its lip. If it wasn't to save energy to use Supersight to find more resources, its Intimidation alone would have directly stunned the lizard.
All along, Eleven's passive Intimidation shown while traveling was at the Beginner-level.
It was already enough to deter the enemy's fighting spirit with such Intimidation fluctuations.
The Proficient-level Intimidation can cause mental damage and directly stun the enemy.
As for the Expert-level Intimidation mastered by Eleven, also known as Monarch Aura, it can condense the vast aura that can stun hundreds of enemies into one force, crushing the enemy. It is Intimidation that can directly confront the Dragon Might of the Ice Dragon illusion.
Any opponent whose mental willpower is not as good as Eleven's, even if they are at the Extraordinary level, would find it difficult to withstand, after all, this is a High-level mental skill at the Expert-level.
At the Extraordinary level, how many pets can train a High-level skill to the Expert-level? Proficient-level is already the best.
However, although Eleven felt that the opponent was flashy, it glanced at Chong Chong. Can you do it?
"Ji!!!" Chong Chong was very dissatisfied because it was looked down upon.
Just wait and see!!
Chong Chong also understood that it would definitely not be able to surpass the leader by just adding points and working hard.
Then, it can only rely on wearing godly equipment.
With the blessing of godly equipment, slaughtering dragons is as easy as slaughtering worms!
"Ying." Eleven shook its head.
It doesn't matter, it's 2vs2 anyway. It doesn't matter if it goes up if Chong Chong can't do it.
At this moment, Yu Shu was waiting for Shi Yu's answer.
However, Shi Yu didn't seem to be intimidated as he had imagined.
"Of course we're competing, but I'll go take a look at what's inside first." Shi Yu smiled slightly.
Want to intimidate him? Not yet.
However, although not yet, Shi Yu casually glanced at the Nether Bone Wyrm. Its four skills were fine, but the Possession skill of that Dragon Soul looked really good.
This is a skill similar to the Fusion Beast Taming Talent.
A Beast Tamer with Fusion Beast Taming Talent can actively choose to fuse with different pets.
A Undead-type soul pet with Possession skill can also actively choose to possess different pets, or even the Beast Tamer.
This is also a very mainstream life-saving skill among Spirit Mediums.
Shi Yu had heard that there seemed to be a Legendary-level Spirit Medium in the Ancient Capital who mainly developed Possession skills.
He contracted an heroic spirit with explosive combat power. After the heroic spirit possessed him, it was said that this Spirit Medium could suppress Overlord creatures alone.
In short, this is also a good skill. Unfortunately, Eleven and Chong Chong definitely can't learn it, otherwise he would be even cooler!
"What else could there be? Dragon Spirit Grass."
Yu Shu glanced at the scorched Earth Rock Lizard with strange patterns on the ground, shook his head, patted the Bone Dragon beside him, and followed Shi Yu, who was riding an Iron-eating Beast, into the valley.
...
Inside the valley, three plants that looked like they had green wings swayed in the core position.
The plants emitted strong mental fluctuations, fluctuations like Dragon Might.
Seeing these three little grasses, Yu Shu was overjoyed.
There were actually three of them.
"The Earth Rock Dragon Lizard learned Intimidation by relying on this." At this time, Shi Yu and the others stared at the Dragon Spirit Grass, revealing curious expressions.
Shi Yu clearly memorized a large amount of resource information, but in his mind, he still couldn't find information on this resource.
It seemed to be an ultra-rare resource.
"Do you know what this is?" Shi Yu asked.
"..." Yu Shu was speechless. After all this time, you don't even know what it is and you want to compete with me.
"Dragon Spirit Grass, a Level 3 Dragon-type and Mental-type resource, worth as much as ordinary Level 5 or higher resources," Yu Shu replied.
"This plant can only be formed in places where purebred dragons have fallen and their Dragon Might remains after death due to obsession."
"That Earth Rock Dragon Lizard should have used the pressure of the Dragon Spirit Grass to train its mental strength during its growth stage, and thus awakened Intimidation on its own. It seems to have a good talent."
Yu Shu breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it didn't eat it directly!
Dragon Spirit Grass cannot be eaten directly, otherwise there will be a high risk of mental breakdown. It needs to be used with other materials. As long as ferocious beasts aren't stupid, they can sense the danger of the Dragon Spirit Grass. This lizard is very smart and only uses its might to train its mental strength.
As for why Yu Shu knew so much, it was simple. Because his mother had participated in the development mission of Trial Island and personally hunted several Dragon species in this area where Dragon Spirit Grass could be bred.
Now, there are no more Dragon species. High-level ferocious beasts have all been cleared out, leaving only creatures like the Earth Rock Dragon Lizard that may evolve into Dragon-types.
"Is that so?"
At this time, Shi Yu heard Yu Shu say this and knew the purpose of the Dragon Spirit Grass without thinking.
Great.
A Mental-type resource? It feels like it can be used as an evolution material for Chong Chong!
It can even give Intimidation the property of Dragon Might?
Wouldn't it be better to fake Dragon Might when transforming into an Ice Dragon?
The completion of the Ice Dragon illusion has suddenly improved.
Shi Yu and Chong Chong's eyes lit up, feeling that they couldn't miss this rare resource.
"Okay, have I satisfied your curiosity?" Yu Shu smiled and said confidently, "Don't tell me, your second pet is a Green Silkworm waiting to evolve."
The reason why he wasn't afraid of competing with Shi Yu for the Dragon Spirit Grass was because his Fusion double battle tactics were invincible at the same level. Secondly, Shi Yu seemed a little unintelligent, riding an Iron-eating Beast, holding a wooden sword, and contracting a Green Silkworm to participate in the professional assessment... What the hell?
Nether Bone Wyrm, Dragon Soul vs. Iron-eating Beast, Green Silkworm, how can he lose?
Yu Shu didn't know how to lose!
It was only because Shi Yu was also a genius that he thought he could befriend him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have said so much to Shi Yu.
Everyone can compete, but don't hurt the harmony. He wanted Shi Yu to lose convincingly.
"It really is my second pet."
Shi Yu smiled. Not only was the other pet a Green Silkworm, but he even planned to let Chong Chong try to fight one-on-two first...
"Then you're done. Are you planning to let the Iron-eating Beast fight one-on-two?"
"No."
Yu Shu and Shi Yu's gazes became increasingly serious and earnest. Both sides were determined to get the Dragon Spirit Grass.
Since that's the case, they can only follow the traditional method of competition: a battle between the examiners.
The two walked to a relatively open space. Yu Shu was dressed in black, and because he often flew, he also wore a red windproof cloak, looking very imposing.
Under his instructions, the Bone Dragon possessed by the Dragon Soul flapped its bone wings and slowly flew up, looking at Shi Yu and the others with empty green flame eyes in mid-air.
On Shi Yu's side, Chong Chong quickly climbed onto Shi Yu's hand.
Shi Yu reached into his pocket, took out a Level 2 ice-type energy crystal from the Relic Bead, fed it to Chong Chong, and had Chong Chong hold it in its mouth.
As for the Ice Dragon Whiskers, Chong Chong had already tied them to its body with transparent silk!
Armed and ready, Chong Chong looked serious, bent its body, and leaped down after bouncing!
Chong Jump!
Chong Chong successfully landed opposite the possessed Bone Dragon, staring at it with full fighting spirit.
At that moment, on the opposite side, Yu Shu and the possessed Bone Dragon, who had serious expressions, paused.
What do you mean?
Looking at the unmoved Shi Yu and Iron-eating Beast, and the Green Silkworm that jumped out, they were speechless.
Don't tell him Yu Shu that Shi Yu wanted the Green Silkworm to fight his possessed Bone Dragon!!
"Are you serious?" Yu Shu raised his head and looked at Shi Yu, but what did Shi Yu feed the Green Silkworm just now...
"Serious." Shi Yu said calmly, "You're half a Dragon Tamer, right? I forgot to tell you, I am too."
Yu Shu: ???
Before Yu Shu could react, Chong Chong on the ground had already closed its eyes slightly.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!!
At that moment, Chong Chong began to emit a cold aura.
After entering the Extraordinary level, and with Chong Chong's Mirage skill leveled to Expert +4, its mental strength, combined with Absolute Sleep, could instantly create dream images.
However, this was still entirely due to Chong Chong's own efforts to construct it. If Shi Yu could copy a dream-control related skill for it, the quality of the illusions it projected should be stronger. For example, in terms of details, it might really know how many hairs a cat in the dream has.
The Mirage skill is actually equivalent to providing a semi-finished product. As long as the user continuously combines other skills to improve the quality of the illusion, its upper limit is very high.
At this time, Yu Shu didn't know what was happening at all, and the possessed Bone Dragon also felt a little confused. But the next moment, the weather had already begun to change, and the sky suddenly darkened, as if blue snow clouds were gathering.
In an instant, hailstones and snowflakes began to fall one after another. Fine snow mixed with a gale formed a blizzard. Countless snowstorms appeared. Under the cover of the snowstorm, Chong Chong's figure was already difficult to see clearly.
If these changes still allowed Yu Shu to quietly watch what medicine Shi Yu was selling in his gourd, then the next moment, he and the possessed Bone Dragon almost simultaneously widened their eyes, revealing unbelievable expressions.
Because, under the gathering of the snowstorm, a behemoth was forming in the position where Chong Chong was just now: an Ice Dragon!!
Yu Shu and the possessed Bone Dragon looked at the more than three-meter-tall dragon creature in front of them, their mouths wide open.
The Ice Dragon in front of them, its strong body seemed to be composed of frost, its color was icy blue and deep, representing extreme cold.
Not only its body, but also its neck, head, long tail, claws, fangs, four strong legs, and its wings were all strong and powerful. The scales revealed coldness, surrounded by wind and snow, domineering and unparalleled.
"Roar!!!!!"
The Ice Dragon that Chong Chong had just projected roared, and its wings flapped.
During the roar, its deep eyes glanced at its opponent, and the few icy blue whiskers fluttered in the wind, giving the possessed Bone Dragon a feeling of bloodline suppression.
The Ice Dragon, which was bigger than itself and looked more like a purebred dragon, directly stunned the possessed Bone Dragon.
What's going on, what happened...
"Impossible!!!" Yu Shu shouted, staring blankly at the Ice Dragon.
Could a pre-professional Beast Tamer summon this kind of creature? Even a Legendary Dragon Tamer can only tame a few Ice Dragons!
This wasn't a real Ice Dragon at all. Yu Shu's eyes narrowed, and he looked incomprehendingly at the disappeared Green Silkworm. "It is, that Green Silkworm?"
"That's not a Green Silkworm. It's a pet that can transform. It just turned into a Green Silkworm. And now, it's become an Ice Dragon." Shi Yu chuckled, while Yu Shu began to curse in his heart.
Damn it, I've never heard of this!!!
Is it appropriate for you to deceive people like this?
Is it appropriate to let a powerful pet transform into a Green Silkworm to pretend to be a worm to eat dragons!
Moreover, he looked at the Ice Dragon and swallowed. Is this why you said you were half a Dragon Tamer?
Yu Shu had a solemn expression. In short, he didn't believe it.
The Ice Dragon is an Overlord Dragon race. How can your pet, a pre-professional Beast Tamer, transform into it as it pleases?
It's just a show. He'll immediately make this Ice Dragon show its true colors.
"Roar!!!!!"
Faced with the Ice Dragon illusion in front of it, the possessed Bone Dragon didn't notice that it was illusory. Knowing that this wasn't an illusion, but a physical illusion, it condensed a Soul Flame Dragon Breath in its restless mouth and launched an attack under the Beast Tamer's command!!
Boom!!!
A thick, half-meter-diameter dark black fire pillar suddenly swept towards the Ice Dragon illusion. This Dragon Breath flame, which could burn the body and soul, had no pressure to instantly kill the Earth Rock Dragon Lizard. However, at this time, facing this Soul Flame Dragon Breath, the Ice Dragon illusion was not afraid at all and spat out a breath as well!
It was just a simple cold breath condensed by ice-type energy!
However, even the cold breath seemed to be spat out by a real Ice Dragon, carrying a strong Dragon Might, like a flying Ice Dragon. Its power was extremely huge, completely different from the cold breath of those low-level ice-type creatures!
With a "Ka" sound, the Soul Flame Dragon Breath and the cold breath collided, and the result was that the cold breath instantly overwhelmed the Dragon Breath and had a tendency to freeze the breath.
Watching the Dragon Breath that was instantly frozen and pushed back, Yu Shu's pupils constricted. The soul fluctuations around him surged. As a Beast Tamer with a soul strengthening talent, he could strengthen the power of the undead. With a "Boom", Yu Shu and the possessed Bone Dragon resonated!!!
At the same time, a huge soul wave surged from their bodies. The Soul Flame Dragon Breath of the possessed Bone Dragon was even more vigorous at this moment. Its power instantly became equal to the ice breath. A violent dust swept up between the two breaths, and the airflow spread to both sides—
"Enhance, Claw Attack—"
"Roar!!"
Amidst the smoke, the figure of the possessed Bone Dragon suddenly flew out. After the Corpse Bone Enhancement skill was activated, the bones on its body exploded, as if it was wearing a bone armor. Its whole body was extremely heavy!
At this time, it held the Soul-Reaping Dragon Claw in both hands and tore towards the Ice Dragon illusion in a crisscross pattern!
Faced with the attack, the Ice Dragon illusion stood still and just looked coldly.
Too many movements would only lead to more consumption. It only needed to use its powerful strength to ignore and crush all attacks!
With a "Boom" sound, the Ice Dragon illusion endured the attack head-on. Tiny cracks appeared on the Dragon Scales. At the same time, the Ice Dragon's broken body bloomed with a terrifying cold aura, freezing the curse energy and directly freezing its entire body along the possessed Bone Dragon's claws.
Ka.
The enhanced Dragon Bones were frozen and shattered, but under the repair of the Skeletal Reconstruction skill, the possessed Bone Dragon quickly recovered as before. However, the next moment, the huge Ice Dragon turned around and slapped out a claw. Before the possessed Bone Dragon could react, its entire body was smashed by the Ice Dragon illusion's Ice Crack Claw and smashed away several meters—
"Roar—"
During this process, the Nether Bone Wyrm and the Dragon Soul were forced to separate, making painful cries. The Ice Dragon Chong severely injured the two pets with one strike.
"Roar!!!" The Ice Dragon illusion still stood in place like an Overlord, looking down at them and making a high-pitched cry.
Yu Shu widened his eyes.
"Impossible, impossible, impossible."
He looked at the possessed Bone Dragon, which was completely crushed in the one round of the confrontation, and his expression was shocked.
How is it possible!
The physical quality of this Ice Dragon is actually comparable to that of a purebred Dragon race from the Overlord race!!!!
Relying solely on its physical quality, it completely crushed his possessed Bone Dragon. In fact, apart from the two basic skills of Ice Breath and Ice Crack Claw, it didn't use any other skills!!
This is unscientific. How can there be such an outrageous transformation skill? He's never heard of it!!
"Do you want to continue fighting? I think it's not necessary." Shi Yu said.
If they continued to fight, the Nether Bone Wyrm and the Dragon Soul would definitely be severely injured. Similarly, Chong Chong would suffer serious mental exhaustion from using the Ice Dragon Whiskers to transform into such a powerful Ice Dragon. Even with the Expert-level Absolute Sleep constantly and quickly recovering its energy, that one round of confrontation had already consumed more than half of Chong Chong's power.
The recovery speed was far lower than the consumption speed.
Continuing like this wouldn't be very meaningful, because Eleven hadn't even made a move yet. Even if Chong Chong didn't have enough energy, the outcome of this battle was obvious.
"Ying—" Shi Yu sat down, and Eleven showed a kind expression to Yu Shu and the others.
Yu Shu's face immediately turned pale, mmp, what's going on with this Shi Yu!!!
What kind of pet did the Ice Dragon in front of him transform from? This is a doggone shame!!!
"Roar..." The Bone Dragon and the Dragon Soul advised their Beast Tamer not to fight.
Mmp, it feels like they can't win.
At this time, Yu Shu was completely numb. The Bone Dragon and the Dragon Soul cautiously stared at the Ice Dragon opposite them. He looked solemnly at the Iron-eating Beast with an energy value of 3186 and the calm Shi Yu, and immediately judged that he really couldn't compete with this guy. He was full of confidence at first...
This is a doggone shame, that's not a Green Silkworm at all!!!
Yu Shu was deeply resentful.
Whether the Ice Dragon in front of him was real or fake, its combat power was definitely not inferior to a purebred Dragon race of a Low-grade Monarch race!
Dragon Spirit Grass...
"You win." Yu Shu's face turned dark.
Dragon Spirit Grass, a mere low-level resource, he didn't want it anymore.
Yu Shu didn't want to end the assessment early because of three Dragon Spirit Grasses. If they continued to fight, his Bone Dragon and Dragon Soul would definitely lose their fighting ability. He would have difficulty moving forward for the remaining two days.
"I admit defeat, you're awesome. See you in the ranking battle. Also, remember not to use Dragon Spirit Grass directly." He said ruthlessly.
Then, he greeted the two pets and turned to leave.
He didn't want to stay in this place.
"Are you leaving? Be careful~" Shi Yu waved his hand. This person was as easy to talk to as Yin Zhengfan. He was a good person.
Just not as strong as Yin Zhengfan.
At the same time, on the ground, the Ice Dragon illusion gradually dissipated, and the Green Silkworm lay trembling on the ground.
Chong Chong: "Achoo!"
"Achoo—"
Hopefully it doesn't catch a cold...
"Ji..." Although it was cold all over, Chong Chong was particularly excited at this time, because these three Dragon Spirit Grasses were earned by it itself!
It quickly climbed to the edge of the Dragon Spirit Grass, sensing the Dragon Might. At this moment, Chong Chong's eyes shrank. It didn't eat the Dragon Spirit Grass at all, but a powerful mental pressure suddenly burst out from its body!!!
Boom!!!
It, independently awakened the Intimidation skill.
Not far away, Yu Shu, who hadn't gone far, turned his head slightly and looked at the Green Silkworm King, who was bursting with Intimidation, and was directly stunned in place...
