Chapter 298 Ancestral Viridian Crocodile (1/2)
After landing a solid punch on a certain jellyfish, Gao Peng dropped the the issue.
While those Core Crystals were indeed valuable, they had actually been pretty useless just sitting there anyways. Absorbing the essence of the crystals to grow stronger might have actually been a better use for them.
The moment they set foot in the Southern Sky Group, Silly, who was still perched on Gao Peng's head, let out a string of unintelligible sounds that sounded like, ”Fish, fish!”
Right next to the lake, a new pool the size of a soccer field had been built. Within the pool lay an enormous creature, silent and unmoving.
Nasty-looking spikes could be seen growing out of its electric blue skin, like the teeth of a chainsaw.
The moment Flamy caught sight of the creature, it started snarling violently, every feather on its body quivering in rage.
Sensing the disturbance, the creature's enormous tail swished gracefully through the water as it swept a lazy glance in their direction.
”Where did Grandfather find this crocodile?” Gao Peng was puzzled.
It looked like something out of the Jurassic era. It was a 65-foot-long crocodile with electric-blue scales. It's yellow eyes were clear and serene.
There was a lake not far from there that was the White Dragon's territory.
If the White Dragon could accept the presence of this creature, that must have meant that the crocodile was Grandfather's latest acquisition.
This wasn't surprising, to be honest. Ever since the White Dragon had evolved to Emperor-tier, Grandfather's soul strength had to have increased considerably. Taming a few more creatures like this one was hardly a difficult task.
”He's back.” Upon hearing the commotion from the mountain out back, Ji Hanwu knew.
Seeing how thin Gao Peng had become, Ji Hanwu was proud and sympathetic all at once. ”You got a tan.”
Ji Hanwu pointed at the crocodile by way of introduction. ”A month ago, there was a huge flood at the Pearl River Delta that unearthed an enormous underwater cavern. That's where it crawled out from. I was just feeling like training a new familiar, so I caught it and brought it home with me.”
”I didn't know there were crocodiles in the Pearl River Delta...” Gao Peng couldn't quite hide his confusion.
”Crocodile remains have been found there before, so it's not entirely impossible. Maybe this one escaped from a zoo? Or some rich family's private collection?” Ji Hanwu didn't really care where it had come from. All that mattered was that it was his now.
”This crocodile is majestic.” Gao Peng sighed in admiration.
His grandfather's familiars were all so dang cool. A regal dragon and a ferocious crocodile. Just their appearances alone exuded a sense of absolute, indomitable strength.
He couldn't help but notice that his grandfather's familiars were all amphibious. The White Dragon, the Thunder Shell Lord, and now this crocodile.
