Astral Pet Store – Chapter 172
Guo Yuelin contacted her Ground Shaker and said, “Well, I don't feel anything.”
Zhou Jing closed his eyes to speak to his eagle as well. Similarly, he got nothing in return. Old Mo glared at Su Ping. “Sama here. We're sick of your bullshit! Did you know it's a crime to sound a false alarm during an important expedition???” Most people seemed displeased as they all believed that Su Ping was causing trouble. But before anyone could further accuse him, Old Mo spoke again, this time anxiously, “Look ahead!!”
Following his lead, the people saw the empty space in front of them suddenly become blurred, before the Soaring Viper generation entered their sight, hissing menacingly.
The Soaring Viper was merely a wind-type Astral Pet in the lower eighth rank that did not pose much of a threat to the experienced settlers. But it was a completely different matter when their swarm appeared.
“Fighter positions !!” Nie Chengkong shouted to the team as he looked at Su Ping in surprise. He found something in front of everyone?? Goddamn bum. If only I had chosen to believe his words
It's too late to regret. They had lost the opportunity to launch a preemptive strike. They can only survive this moment.
Everyone recognized these famous vipers as skilled when covering their movements by using air currents. Worse, these things always live in large groups. Anyone who was careless would be smashed to pieces within a few seconds.
The scouts looked them in the eyes when they realized that they had failed miserably in their work. And how else; no one with a healthy mind would believe that the Soaring Viper could use such a hot area as a habitat.
Nie Chengkong shouted again to wake his members from their stunned state.
“I'll take care of the defense!” Chen asked his Ground Dragon to create a giant shield from the burning earth that covered everyone inside like a large water bowl, leaving only their fighting pets outside.
Using the opportunity, people stretched their astral powers through shields to assess the situation.
“Eleven, twelve ... sixteen of them!” Nie Chengkong declared with a grim look. Without helpers, their team would definitely be crippled by so many eighth rank monsters gnawing at them.
“I saw their alpha. I'll lower it,” Old Mo said. He felt bad about what he had just said a moment before. He wanted to do something quickly to correct his mistake.
“I understand,” replied Nie Chenkong, “Alright, others will help with handling lower targets! Mister Mo's Death Sickness should be enough to finish off their leader. ”
Hissing!
Beyond “earth shield”, venomous snakes stretch out their webbed wings and invade into one. After adopting a battle position, the objects were at least twenty meters long and ten meters wide, and they were constantly covered by the dangerous wind element.
Most of the team members could defeat Soaring Viper in a one-on-one fight. But that certainly cannot be said when fighting so many of them.
A few blades of wind reached the shield and left some gigantic gaps on it.
Chen sensed the dangerous attack and said to Su Ping, “Sh*te. I forgot to bring your dog inside!” He had realized that Su Ping's Dark Dragon Hound was quite good at surveillance, which meant they had to keep it under protection. Otherwise, it will soon be torn to shreds out there.
Even a rank nine Astral Pet would not be able to survive facing many Soaring Vipers unscathed, let alone a sixth rank one.
“What are you waiting for?? Open and leave inside!” Luo Guxue demanded.
Chen and Nie Chengkong both shook their heads.
“We cannot afford to expose people to danger.” Chen looked at Su Ping with an apologetic look. “I'm really sorry for this, young friend.” Previously, Chen would not care about what happened to the Dark Dragon Hound. However, then, he knew he had made a huge mistake.
Ye Chenshan clenched his teeth and offered, “I will use my Azura Lizard to cover it up! That's good in defending!”
Ye Chenshan did not order his lizard to face the poisonous snake because the creature was not enough to fend off that much. But after some faltering, he decided to take the risk and help Su Ping.
Ye Chenshan nodded and quickly contacted his lizard, only to find that Dark Dragon Hound Su Ping could not be found. “Is-is it dead already ?? Wait..”
Using the vision sent by his lizard, he quickly found the dog in the middle of the herd of vipers instead of staying close to their shield.
“What does it do?”
Su Ping spoke to him, “You can let him. Tell your lizard to help the Death Scythe so we can kill the alpha viper as quickly as possible.”
Through their “” pet relationship, people watched in awe as they watched the herd of snakes turn into total chaos, when the Dark Dragon Hound somewhat playfully ran among the venomous snakes while randomly dropping them to the side. Therefore, no venomous snakes can follow their alpha.
“What is it—How to do it?”
People did not believe that a rank six pet moved so freely under the attack of a group of rank eight monsters, but they also could not see anything at the same time, so they had to believe it.
Luo Guxue suddenly recalled Su Ping's “ outstanding training sessions and suddenly found the matter more understandable. “Kataku... I have to visit his shop,” he muttered. “Master Su?? What the hell is going on?” Nie Chengkong asked with widened eyes. The Falling Priest had yet to join the battle as most of the vipers were attracted by the Dark Dragon Hound. Moreover, he was too astonished back then to give any orders to his pet.
Su Ping maintained his casual appearance. “As I said, my dog is not only good at detecting, but also fighting, as long as we face a common enemy.”
“Enemies together ??”
It's NO ordinary enemy! Nie Chenshan protested in his mind. If we hadn't known it yet, we would have believed that there were rank nine pets helping us!
Everyone who doubted Su Ping earlier changed their minds right then and there; if the Dark Dragon Hound was just “ secondary pets” Su Ping, they would expect more reliable help at this rate.
Chen and Old Mo also exchanged glances as they agreed to treat Su Ping more fairly. They finally understood why Su Ping was promised the privilege of taking the treasure first. It was clear that Su Ping had enough time and resources to become a titled fighting pet fighter in the future. They won't get the bad side.
“Alright, I'm coming!” Nie Chengkong ordered the Fallen Priest to join as well. With dogs bothering them, venomous snakes are no longer a threat.
Alpha viper has been completely isolated. Using this opportunity, Old Mo focused on controlling his Death Scythe so that they could choose “commander of enemies” in time.
This alpha viper was only a mid-level eight monster, whereas the Death Scythe was at the lower ninth rank. Shortly thereafter, the viper was on the losing side.
Luo Guxue and Ye Chenshan exchanged glances in embarrassment when they found nothing to do.
Similarly, Guo Yuelin and Zhou Jing both understood how Su Ping had managed to save Luo Guxue and Ye Chenshan from life-threatening danger.
The feed! Holy hooch!
The Dark Dragon Hound is having fun playing “cat and rat” with a group of enemies he knows best. On the other hand, the viper started to fidget after being played by a dog. Wind blades, tornado traps, and their poisonous bites.
In addition to the dog's burning coat that easily fended off most of the attacks, it also had three types of defensive spells protecting its body, making it stronger than the Earth Dragon.
