Chapter 347 The End (2/2)

Suddenly, a tail collided with the Savage Sabertooth Tiger, smacking it into the water. The tiger tried to swipe at the yellow creature with its claws, but the creature nimbly evaded the attack and slammed its massive body against the tiger, causing it to spin about uncontrollably in the water.

The Savage Sabertooth Tiger tried to regain its balance. It madly flailed its limbs about, hoping to swim back to the shore before its assailant struck again.

The sea was where the yellow creature reigned supreme. The Savage Sabertooth Tiger thrashed helplessly in the water. When it had already paddled some distance towards the shore, a huge wave pushed it even further away. The tiger's desperate yelping could be heard in the confusion of the waves.

In the next second, the Savage Sabertooth Tiger was pulled into the sea by its attacker.

A 16-foot-tall black tortoise leaped into the water upon seeing what had just happened. It belonged to a famous Southeast Asian trainer named the Black Saint.

This was his and his familiar's codename.

The Sandshadow Carpet Shark had sunk its fangs into the Savage Sabertooth Tiger's leg and was now dragging it down into the ocean's depths.

This is such an effective way of dealing with landlubbers, thought the Sandshadow Carpet Shark gleefully.

Suddenly, there was a sharp pang of pain on its tail, as if something had stung it. Its tail hurt a few more times...

Turning around, it could see a strange-looking creature behind it, all white from tip to toe. It looked like an octopus, but there was a strange spectral flame burning in its eye sockets. Its tentacles lashed out at the carpet shark like whips.

At first, the Sandshadow Carpet Shark didn't wish to engage it. However, its tail was now hurting so badly that it couldn't help but release the Savage Sabertooth Tiger's leg from its jaws. Upon feeling the carpet shark's jaws loosen around its leg, the tiger quickly turned around and rammed into its assailant.

The tortoise named Black Saint reached the tiger at that moment. Even in its domain, there was no way the Sandshadow Carpet Shark would be able to take on two Lord-tier monsters on its own.

Reluctantly, it turned around and swam back into the ocean.

It decided not to waste any more of its time fighting such difficult prey.

The Lord-tier sea monsters began to pull back. In contrast with other lower-tiered monsters, their relationship with the King Coral Monster wasn't unlike that between an aircraft carrier and a cruiser.

While capable of working in tandem, both parties weren't symbiotically dependent on each other to survive.

A Lord-tier sea monster rarely had any concept of sacrificing oneself for the ”greater good.” When threatened, they would run away faster than any Commander-tier monster.

With the Lord-tier monsters pulling back, the rest of the Commander and Elite-tier monsters had no choice but to retreat as well, knowing that they wouldn't be able to keep up the offense on their own.

They were now entering the final stages of the battle. Soon, it was time for the humans to reap the fruits of their victory.

”It's finally over,” breathed some of the trainers.

”That island-looking monster is swimming away!”

Some were pointing at the King Coral Monster, which was gradually sinking beneath the waves in the distance.

”Take the King Eel's carcass back. That will be all,” said Gao Peng. Someone had invited him to a victory feast, which he politely declined.

The King Eel's carcass was the only thing that had any value. Everything else was simply not worth Gao Peng's attention. However, the real prize was the three-year tax exemption policy that the Yangcheng government had promised them.

Goldie didn't follow Gao Peng back home. Instead, it decided to stay behind and pick up all the fish carcasses left behind on the battlefield. It was using a pair of tweezers to facilitate the process.

”Five hundred, one thousand, fifteen hundred, two thousand...” counted Goldie happily as it gathered up all the fish lying on the ground.
