Chapter 36 (2/2)

Following the soul force entering Zhang Che’s head, he immediately felt the sense of nausea and dizziness easing up a little. He struggled to crawl back onto his feet with a complicated look, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

To be able to hunt a gold-quality exotic beast, the sense of pride and achievement was sufficient to overwhelm him.

However, it was extremely regrettable that he didn’t get a beast card out of it.

Moreover, the Mutated Puffersword’s sound wave attack not only caused substantial injuries to Zhang Che, it also caused his subdued beasts to lose most of their combat strength for a short period of time.

In particular, the Psychedelic Ghost-Patterned Butterfly that was only at black iron-quality had suffered severe injuries. It was likely that it had to be recalled into his spiritual sea to recuperate for a few days before it was in top condition again.

“I can’t take this; I paid such a heavy price and yet I gained nothing out of this!”

Zhang Che took deep breaths to further ease his nausea as he focused his gaze on that pond of unknown depth.

“I wonder if there are more Mutated Pufferswords in that pond…”

Just as this thought sprouted in his mind, Zhang Che couldn’t help but let out a self-mocking chuckle. He was thinking too much; how could it be possible for gold-quality exotic beasts to gather in groups like low-quality beasts, appearing by the dozens?

However, Zhang Che just couldn’t let it go without trying.

Thus, when the Wind Shadow Wolf gradually recovered, Zhang Che ordered it to approach the edge of the pond once more.

Meanwhile, the Fiery Scorpion lay in ambush about a dozen meters behind the Wind Shadow Wolf, quietly waiting.

The Wind Shadow Wolf came to the side of the pond, ready to dodge at any moment.

A minute passed. No signs of disturbance on the water surface.

Two minutes passed. The water surface was still as calm as ever.

“As expected, I thought too mu-”

As Zhang Che shook his head, about to give up, a sharp splash suddenly rang out from the originally calm water’s surface. A silhouette shot out from the water like a bolt of lightning, heading towards the Wind Shadow Wolf!

-It’s here!- Zhang Che was overjoyed, nearly cheering out loud.

The prepared Wind Shadow Wolf quickly dodged aside, narrowly avoiding the Mutated Puffersword’s attack. It hit nothing as it shot past, falling where the Fiery Scorpion was lying in ambush.

“Sting its mouth!”

Zhang Che was fearful of the Mutated Puffersword’s sound waves attack, and hurriedly gave a precise attack command to the Fiery Scorpion, unwilling to ‘enjoy’ that dreadful experience again.

The Fiery Scorpion quickly pounced forward after receiving the order, swinging its stinger forward like a bolt of lightning and pierced the lower jaw of the Mutated Puffersword with impeccable accuracy. Its entire mouth was punctured through, and its fire toxin started gushing out crazily.

After missing its attack, the Mutated Puffersword was about to make its way back to the pond when its body suddenly convulsed, dragging the Fiery Scorpion with it to a height of nearly a meter.

The Mutated Puffersword wanted to open its mouth for the sound waves attack. However, its mouth and throat were severely damaged by the fire toxin, and it was unable to act as it wished.

What followed after was simple.

As the saying goes, a dragon swimming in shallow waters would get played by shrimps, not to mention the Mutated Puffersword was no dragon to begin with. After leaving the water and being unable to use its skill, it could only be torn apart by the Fiery Scorpion and Wind Shadow Wolf. It held on for less than half a minute before it helplessly turned into a streak of light.

The notification in his brain chimed like the sounds of heaven, causing Zhang Che to roar out in laughter…
