Chapter 102: Coco (1/2)
A girl was peering through the branches of a giant tree a few kilometers away, sticking out her tongue from time to time, “It’s so scary here. Should I go away? No, I won’t be able to help anyone if I’m further.”
When Lu Yin and Lulu reached the battlefield, there were almost a hundred Sentinel cultivators surrounding the dinosaur beast. The two looked at the creature and exchanged shocked glances. He said gravely, “This thing isn’t simple; it’s faster, hardier, and more experienced. Do you see that shadow of a battle technique in its attacks as well?”
Lulu acknowledged and clenched her fists, “It’s obviously very hard to fight against, so why are these people fighting it to the death?”
Lu Yin looked across the battlefield and finally below the beast’s legs. No matter what the battle situation was, that beast never stepped on a small mound underneath. “There’s something there.”
Lulu grew excited, “Let’s go, too. I want to know how many punches it can take!”
He’d wanted to wait a little longer, reckoning that there were many other experts waiting for an opportunity, but she’d already charged out before he could stop her. Unable to let her just go alone, he followed helplessly while keeping an eye out for others. It seemed strange that almost a hundred Sentinels couldn’t defeat a mutant beast of equal level, but Lulu grew excited as it dodged her first strike. This thing could sense the danger!
The beast howled, its giant tail sweeping in her direction. Lulu dodged easily, but a dozen others were struck, and almost half their bodies were broken apart and they died immediately while others were sent flying with heavy injuries. Lu Yin was astonished by the violent attack; this wasn’t one whit inferior to the five-star Cosmic Palm.
The biggest difference between beasts and humans was imagination. Humans knew how to be creative, while beasts relied on their bodies and innate gifts. The latter were far more powerful under similar conditions, but humans had the ability to change the environment using their own innate gifts and battle techniques.
Lulu blinked to the mound in the earth and waved her hand, exposing a small, glowing tree. There were several light-yellow fruits hanging from it that seemed quite alluring. As she was puzzled over what they were, the beast roared and exerted all of its strength to get back up.
“Lulu, careful!” Lu Yin barked, and she avoided with the White Flash. Another figure appeared and looked at her in astonishment before reaching towards the tree, but a furious Lulu kicked out with one leg. That figure blocked the attack with his left shoulder, a scene that would have been all too familiar if Meng Yue was around. Sure enough, the figure was sent flying in the next moment.
Lulu snorted and left, grabbing the fruits along the way. Lu Yin felt curious, but didn’t ask more and took to the skies as well. The beast snarled and charged out from underground as he left, intimidating a dozen Sentinels who had run in from hiding into fleeing once more.
“How many did you take?” he asked as they left.
She threw five fruits over, “Ten in total, half each.”
“You didn’t take more?” he grew suspicious.
She answered seriously, “Leave something in everything you do, do not exhaust a natural treasure. That is part of my family’s teachings.” teachings.”
He nodded and said so more, looking to the dozen people who had suddenly appeared nearby. One of them spoke cheerlessly, “Friend, don’t mind sharing some of what you took.”
“Come on, let’s get this done quick,” Lu Yin remained indifferent, vanishing at the same time as Lulu. All of the aggressors rained down from the sky in the next moment. Many other cultivators grew apprehensive at the sight, and were secretly glad that they didn’t act themselves. Someone capable of defeating that beast with one attack definitely wasn’t simple; those two were some of the strongest in this assessment.
Within the big tree in the distance, the dainty girl sighed, “So powerful, I wonder how he compares to Sister Zora.”
