Chapter 97 - I Really Didn’t Give Any Commands!
“We’re ready,” Wang Ye nodded.
“Then!” Lu Daying waved his hand, “Let the match begin!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the mountain giant began to move forward.
Its speed was unhurried, but it gave off an inexplicable powerful pressure!
Especially when the stones on the surface of its body began to glow faintly.
“Roar!” The mountain giant stomped its foot.
Advanced earth-type skill, Ground Shake!
In an instant, the earth shook!
As if the ground had been lifted, countless stones flew and smashed toward the white python!
The white python immediately floated, using Dynamic Vision to nimbly dodge the stones that were coming at it in all directions.
Unfortunately, the stones were falling like raindrops at a high density!
If this continued, it would be drowned sooner or later!
Boom!
......
The mountain giant stomped its foot again!
Another advanced skill!
Attacks came from both the ground and the air!
It was obvious that its proficiency in its skills was not low. Even if the skills weren’t in the proficient realm, they weren’t far from it!
At this moment, the white python suddenly let out a soft cry. Then, its tail gently swayed while it gently turned its head.
Suddenly, the foot of the mountain giant that was about to stomp once more suddenly froze!
“?” Cheng Xian frowned slightly.
What was going on?
The other party didn’t seem to have used any skills.
historical
The next moment!
“Huji!!” The white python swung its tail again, but it didn’t use Dimensional Cleave.
It seemed to be lifting something with great effort?
In an instant, the mountain giant’s huge body seemed to be out of control as it suddenly started swaying left and right.
This scene made everyone dumbfounded.
Wait a minute, what was going on?
Could the white python control its opponent without using any skills?
“Wait...” Lu Daying’s eyes lit up as he instantly understood, “Good kid!”
Wang Ye thought for a moment and understood as well.
Immediately, the way he looked at the white python changed.
So was this how the big shot would fight?
Taking one step at a time and scheming all the way?
“Roar!” The mountain giant let out an angry roar as its body shook even more violently!
This time, not only its feet, but even its arms, its head, and its entire body seemed to be bound by a spider web, traces appearing one after another.
The lines of the web rubbed the gaps between the rocks on its body.
With that, the green vegetation on its body began to lose its vitality rapidly, as if it had been poisoned.
It would take some time for the plants to grow back.
As such, the mountain giant’s characteristics were thus temporarily weakened.
Boom!
Abruptly, the mountain giant fell. Cracks began to appear on the rocks all over its body as if they were about to fall apart.
The white python then jumped with lightning speed and used Dimensional Cleave as its last attack!
Invisible tails instantly appeared around the mountain giant, hacking down at it from all angles with strength enough to split mountains.
In an instant, the cracks on the mountain giant’s body grew bigger!
Before anyone could come to their senses, it split open.
“Roar...” A weak roar sounded as if announcing the end of the battle.
Cheng Xian was dumbfounded.
Only when the mountain giant fell did he finally understand.
But he still found it quite unbelievable.
“Shadowless Line...” Cheng Xian took a deep breath and said through gritted teeth, “The shadowless lines from the previous match were not put away! You were waiting for the next opponent, huh? Putting that aside, even my mountain giant could not break free from this power! The skill is definitely not just in the great success realm! What the hell, the peak mastery realm? How can a level 2 pet have peak mastery realm skills!”
Even with his experience, he still felt that the white python was too abnormal!
Especially its tactical calculations.
It was obvious that the other party was prepared.
No matter who the opponent was in the next match, they would be defeated instantly with this tactic!
That’s right!
In the previous match, the white python didn’t put away its Shadowless Lines after it finished cutting those thorns. Instead, it simply left them on the platform.
With this, it could defeat the opponent in the next match with one strike!
This was because, for every match, the opponent would definitely grow increasingly stronger.
After all, the weaker ones would not be so foolish as to come onto the platform and send themselves to their defeat.
Those who still dared to come up and challenge would definitely be stronger than the previous ones. Only then would they have the confidence to do so.
If they did not settle the battle quickly, the one who would lose would definitely be the white python!
Hiss, hiss, hiss!
Along with a series of hissing sounds, invisible threads extended out from the mountain giant’s body.
Although the crowd could not see clearly, they instantly came to a realization.
For a moment, they were numb from shock!
“Who is Wang Ye? Is he even a senior investigator? Why do I feel like he has the demeanor of a master investigator?”
“I don’t believe that this tactic was thought of by the pet itself. Wang Ye is quite formidable!”
“He’s too strong! Cheng Xian has been calculated against. He probably thought that the other party would use some kind of skill, but good lord, the other party had released the skill in the last round.”
...
“The competition is over. Wang Ye wins,” Lu Daying announced.
After saying this, he walked up to Wang Ye and sighed, “Kid, I thought you were young and inexperienced in battle. I didn’t expect you to have such scheming abilities! If I hadn’t heard from Commander Lin Rou that you had only become a Beastmaster for half a year, I would have thought that you were some old monster in pretend.”
“...” Wang Ye.
“This...” Wang Ye cleared his throat and said, “If I told you that I didn’t participate in the battle just now, and that it did it all by itself, would you believe me?”
He pointed at the white python.
The white python was currently patting the stones on its tail.
Then it floated onto Wang Ye and rubbed against him, lying down.
It was so tired that it was going to take a nap.
“Do you think I’ll believe in that?” Lu Daying said.
“But I didn’t make a sound the entire time!” Wang Ye said.
“After a contract is signed between pet and human, telepathic communication is possible after a higher degree of intimacy is achieved. You wouldn’t have needed to open your mouth to command. Did you think I wouldn’t know this?” Lu Daying patted Wang Ye’s shoulder, “I’m complimenting you, so what are you being shy about? You haven’t experienced many battles, yet you have such excellent battle performance. It seems that whether it’s in battle or in cultivating pets, you’re ridiculously talented!”
“...” Wang Ye.
It really wasn’t him!
He really didn’t give any commands!
It was all thanks to the big shot, the white python!
Wang Ye was helpless.
“Go get ready. We’ll immediately enter the relic of life after two hours of resting time,” Lu Daying coughed.
Wang Ye sighed and walked off the platform/
At this moment, Cheng Xian, who was opposite him, walked over and said, “Impressive. The Investigation Corps is indeed full of hidden talents. It’s not inferior to the university at all. I didn’t expect to meet a senior beastmaster with such combat talent here!”
“...” Wang Ye.
“With those Shadowless Lines, it seems like you’ve already anticipated that I’ll be challenging you later,” Cheng Xian shook his head slightly, “Me losing was as deserved. However, entering the relic is another matter. You’ll be entering half a day earlier than me. I hope I’ll be able to meet you again when the time comes.”
After saying that, Cheng Xian smiled and left. He wasn’t disheartened by his loss.
Wang Ye fell into deep thought.
Although it was said to be a battle between pets, in reality, as a Beastmaster, he didn’t seem to have commanded much.
Xiao Jiu just barged through everything, while the white python was purely a big shot who lead the way to victory by being stable and cautious, calculating step by step.
“Aren’t I a little too useless?” Wang Ye fell into deep thought.
Hmm... It couldn’t be put that way either.
He entered the resting room.
“Forget it. We’re about to enter the relic, so let’s recover first and run a simulation again.”
The threats and obstacles in an unknown relic weren’t cleared yet, so there was a certain level of danger.
Moreover, due to the limitations of the rules, there might be some unknown checkpoints or tests.
The slightest carelessness would be disastrous.
After the white python was rested, Wang Ye began a reality simulation.
“Don’t take too long in the reality simulation later,” Wang Ye said, “If we can get out of the relic, we can at most survive for a few years, then do something that will risk our lives. Otherwise, we might have problems if the time you maintain survival in the simulation is too long. Do you understand?”
This couldn’t be helped. The white python was too different from Xiao Jiu.
It was just too cautious. Its reality simulation could last for more than ten years, or even a few decades.
Wang Ye felt that his spiritual power might not be able to endure it, and there wasn’t enough time either.
If the simulation was too long, it wouldn’t be good either.
It would be fine as long as they could simulate a few years, increase its strength and get a reward.
The white python pondered for a moment, then reluctantly nodded in agreement.
[The reality simulation begins. Loading...]
[Two hours later, you and your Beastmaster entered the relic. You discovered that the place was a world on its own. It was just like a huge subterranean world. At the end of the horizon, the two of you saw a silver ancient tree that reached the heavens.]
[You guys began to advance. With your outstanding experience, you carefully avoided many powerful fierce beasts. Your Beastmaster didn’t think that avoiding was a good choice, so he gave you a lecture and you got a little angry.]
[As you advanced, you recorded the data. At this moment, the space changed slightly, and two paths appeared. You wanted to go left, and your Beastmaster wanted to go right. In the end, your Beastmaster listened to you and the two of you went left. You were pleased.]
[However, at the end of the path on the left, you suddenly discover another Beastmaster, who looks exactly the same as your Beastmaster who was next to you! You tried to differentiate between them with haste but discovered that the two were exactly the same. You suspected that you were under a spiritual illusion, so you activated the Spiritual Barrier and interrogated them. However, you were still unable to determine which one was real. Helpless, you could only advance together with both Beastmasters.]
[At the end of the path, you felt a rich aura of life from a shining pearl. You found it suspicious at the first moment, so you didn’t make a move. However, both Beastmasters told you to take it. They said that as long as you did so, one of them would reveal its true form! You pondered for a long time. In order to determine who your Beastmaster was, you decided to do as they said.]
[After you took the shining pearl, a giant black mantis appeared. It killed both Beastmasters with two strikes, severely injuring the angry you. At the critical moment, you calmed down and used Spatial Flash to leave the place. You returned to the intersection and escaped the relic.]
[ outside the ruins, you found your beastmaster and pounced into his lap. It turns out that after entering the left path, your Beastmaster had been sent out in a daze... Both Beastmasters had been fake.]
[You found nothing in the relic of lice. Some of the others chose the right path, but didn’t manage to clear it either. It was said that this might just be the first stage of the relic of life. Later on, you heard that Xinghai Province’s Qixing Investigation Corps had mobilized some members and forcefully broke the rules of the relic of life by barging in. Following that, a world-shaking battle broke out. Not long after that, a sword light suddenly burst out from a certain secret realm. It was quickly suppressed and vanished into thin air...]
[A few years later, you broke through to level 4. However, because you were courting death, you and your Beastmaster died in a large-scale secret realm.]
[The simulation has ended. The white python survived for three years and broke through to level 4. You may retain one of the following three options.]
[Obtain one of the current six dimensions of your pet.]
[Obtain one of the current skills of your pet.]
[Obtain one of the current characteristics of your pet.]
“...”
Wang Ye glanced at little white python.
Its performance in the reality simulation was indeed not bad. It was better than Xiao JIu.
If it had been Xiao Jiu, it would’ve either died in the first stage or just cleared it by force.
In contrast, the white python managed to calm down and escape at the critical moment. It even found a way to grasp the information behind it.
“What should I choose for the reward this time?”
