Chapter 67: A Riding Doll

Translator: Translated Henyee Editor: Translated Henyee

Azure Quetzalcoatl doesn't look good. Without getting first aid from an expert doctor, it would soon end up in Astral Pet's grave.

Fan Yujing glanced at the mist warily. "Master—Master Su, does your skeleton control it?"

He stopped calling Su Ping as “friend.” It would be very strange to call someone who had just displayed monstrous strength this way.

“Sort of, yes.”

From what he felt through the spiritual connection, Su Ping could tell that the Little Skeleton absorbed the Life Corpse energy left behind by the Magical Corpse Beast.

Previously, the Little Skeleton dug a small hole in the body of the Magical Beast and dived, to avoid "bowling ball attacks" and easily tore the beast from within. Even the outer skin of the beast was unable to withstand his bone blades, let alone his vulnerable innards. That is, if this thing has innards.

"Should we go out there and finish it?" ask Li Ying. He had not done so because he felt something sinister coming from the fog.

Su Ping shook his head and took out the Fire Dragon Fruit in a bottle. "Does anyone see the Fire-Tailed Blood Fox around here?"

Fan Yujing and Li Ying were surprised by the question. They did not think Su Ping was still thinking about this matter after what had just happened.

"The Blood Fox of the Fire Tail?" Ye Chenshan frowned. He decided to play it safe with Su Ping for now. “No, I'm afraid we haven't done it yet. That thing in your hand is pet feed for fire-type pets, right? Are you here to catch a fox? ”

“The change should belong to someone on this team. I'm here to help them find it.” Su Ping looked disappointed.

"Help?" Ye Chenshan widened his eyes. He's not a member of their team? Makes sense ... If he was, I would have heard about him.

"Thank you, Mr. Su ..." Fan Yujing only felt an overwhelming sense of gratitude fill him. A moment before, he had thought Su Ping would abandon their duties.

Su Ping simply stared at Fan Yujing unhappily. Come on, I'm not helping you. This is a damned system that forced me.

"First profanity warning."

Forgetit.

"If you are looking for the Blood Fox, I think I saw her footprints somewhere," the woman beside Ye Chenshan spoke up. He seemed unsure of his decision as he did not want to accidentally give the wrong clue.

"Thul? Where did you see them?”

"There's a slope around the forest in front." He pointed in a certain direction. “But those footprints were long abandoned. The aroma is long gone.”

“Now I think about it, he's right.” Ye Chenshan nodded.

Su Ping looked in that direction and kept that information in his mind. "Thank you."

“That's who should thank.” The woman smiled. "It's nice to meet you. I am Luo Guxue from Team Polaris. May I know your name?"

“Su Ping.”

“Su Ping?” Both Luo Guxue and Ye Chenshan failed to find this name in their memories.

Even so, they had more than enough reasons to remember that name. Someone so brilliant will soon be recognized by all the other teams out there.

Fan Ganglie had taken her pet in time to hear their conversation. His Azure Quetzalcoatl will either die or survive with a serious disability at this rate. Learning about the Fire-Tailed Blood Fox did not make him happy.

He looked at Ye Chenshan, who returned an understanding look and placed a hand on his shoulder.

“Mr Fan, I never reneged on my promise. Rest assured."

Ye Chenshan smiled and turned to Lin Mokong. “Wounded Apimu Birds and Six Armed Gorillas as well. I will bear the cost of their treatment.”

Lin Mokong was startled for a while, before he quickly thanked Ye Chenshan. He was able to afford the care of his pet, but saving money was even better.

Lastly, Ye Chenshan greeted Su Ping politely, "Thank you for your help, Mr. Su."

"Thank you back."

The black fog around the Magical Corpse Beast disappeared, causing everyone to look in that direction.

Like water being pulled by a sponge, the mist retreated into the beast's body; it remained motionless, without showing any sign of energy.

The crack!

Little Skeleton emerged from the open wound and looked around using a pair of hollow eye sockets with a fiery red flame within. His dark bones were further blackened by the dark energy swirling around him.

The others suddenly felt a chill on their backs as the Little Skeleton looked towards them, as if they were being examined by something much more deadly.

Su Ping ordered the Small Skeleton to use the Puppet skill, which the small skeleton learned the other day.

Unlike Undead Enslaving, this skill takes time to work. The dead Magical Corpse corpse was the perfect material to make a puppet.

After receiving Su Ping's command, the Little Skeleton pumped more dark energy out of his body, which sank into the corpse below.

Energy slowly repaired the broken bones of the Magical Corpse Beast. A few minutes later, the Magical Corpse Beast twitched; the members of the group almost cried out in fear.

"Silent. That's a doll now,” Su Ping comforts them.

"A doll??"

They all knew about this commonly seen skill, usually available to high level Undead creatures. But they never believed that Su Ping's skeleton was strong enough to turn the savage beast into a puppet.

Following Little Skeleton's instructions, the Magical Corpse Beast slowly stood back up.

Dolls made in this way were always one rank lower than when they were alive. Moreover, the puppet user could only control something that was three ranks higher than himself or below. Back then, this “Magical Corpse Beast Puppet” was only a top seventh rank being.

As for how the Little Skeleton did this as a third rank Astral Pet ... His superior talent has made it possible.

The "at most three-ranked higher" restriction is a conclusion drawn by federal educators. The best potential of this skill was actually, unknown.

"Now we have something to drive." Su Ping walked over to the Magical Corpse Beast first.

Looking at him, the others followed behind, albeit more carefully.

“You need to find the Fire-Tailed Blood Fox, right? We will go with you, ” Ye Chenshan said.

Su Ping agreed without thinking twice. He knew that Ye Chenshan might be taking part so they would not have to return on foot when their pet was injured.

Using the Magical Corpse Beast's speed and Luo Guxue's guidance, they immediately reached the footprints mentioned above and began to search for more traces left behind by the fox.

Su Ping took out the Fire Dragon Fruit and squeezed it. This way, he could use the smell of the fruit to attract the fire-type Astral Pets. These space fractures were mostly occupied by Undead-type beasts, so they did not have to worry about attracting unwanted creatures.

Others were amazed by how Su Ping made such expensive preparations just to find a fox.

A few hours later, they reached the edge of a high cliff, where they found more traces.
