Chapter 536 Black Child (1/2)
As the fight dragged on, the difference in tier worried Gao Peng.
Da Zi was Mythical-grade, and although a Xuanhai Silver-Winged Three-Eyed Python could reach up to the Epic grade, this was merely Excellent grade.
Between the Excellent and Mythical grades, there were three levels—Perfect, Epic and Legendary. Mythical was four levels above Excellent.
Even then, the Xuanhai Silver-Winged Three-Eyed Python could only be killed with the help of Dumby and Stripey. Even though Da Zi didn't have much experience for this battle, this made Gao Peng aware of the need to pay attention to the gap between the grades of each level, especially in the later stages.
It would be difficult to collect the materials needed for the advancement of each grade, but if the effort in collecting was focused on improving the level of the monsters, the speed of growth would be faster than the former.
Gao Peng always felt a sense of urgency. Back when the ancient tribe returned, from the way Sang Tong killed the Cherry Sky Tree, one could tell that the people of the ancient tribe didn't regard themselves as compatriots to people like them who lived on the Earth Star.
It was similar to how the Europeans dealt with the Native Americans when they discovered the New World. Without the ability to protect one's self, everything was an illusion. Even these high-quality beasts of theirs could be stolen.
On one hand, Gao Peng would want to improve his monster's grade, because the Earth Star was restricted, and with a better grade, his monsters would have an advantage against others of the same tier.
But having the same tier was also important, as if there was a lag in tier, it would largely impact their strength. It would be easier to upgrade tiers than grades.
There was one thing yet to be verified. When one stored an Earth Star-restricted monster of a certain level within the space, was one then 'smuggling' the monster in? Loopholes like these were always exceptionally exciting.
As long as one brought them in, it didn't matter if one couldn't release them from the familiar space. Gao Peng sighed. He had been away for half a year.... he was beginning to miss home. But he knew that he couldn't return now.
As they said, ”Glory is fleeting, but obscurity is forever.” Since he had yet to be successful, what was the point of heading home?
In Gao Peng's opinion, he would need at least an Overlord-tier familiar, and a huge group of Emperor-tier monsters to be considered mildly successful.
The Sang Tong tribe had an Overlord-tier monster but was only considered a second-grade tribe. If he didn't even have one Overlord-tier monster, he wouldn't even be on par with a second-grade tribe. With this thought, Gao Peng's desire to return home was reduced.
Gao Peng took out the altar on Stripey's back and told Little Black Guy, ”Go decompose this Overlord-tier monster. It would be good if you could find something good.”
Even though Gao Peng tried to control his emotions, one could tell that he had a sense of satisfaction.
The little black guy, without any complaints, placed the Xuanhai Silver-Winged Three-Eyed Python on the altar like a tiny curled up silver snake. The little black guy didn't express any different emotions while decomposing the Overlord-tier monster, as if it was a fairly common affair.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
”Sure. I'll do my best to decompose it better for you.” The little guy nodded and rubbed its palms. ”To think of it, it's been a while since I decomposed an Overlord-tier monster. I'm not sure if my skills have become rusty.”
Gao Peng had a change in expression. ”I don't think you have a name yet.”
”I do have a name. It's the Great Altar Cutter, and I've mentioned this to you.” The little guy was suddenly wary.
”Oh—” Gao Peng nodded in surprise. ”But that's the name of the altar. Although you're one with the altar, you are, after all, an instrumental spirit of this altar. Calling you a Great Altar Cutter doesn't sound good. It feels like I am calling out to this altar.”
The little guy was confused. ”I am one with the altar. We are one, so you can just call me—”
