Beast Taming: I Can Even Breed Gods and Demons - Chapter 164
Chapter 164: Chapter 116: Has Chu Xuan become so sinister and vicious?
Translator: 549690339
“Hmm.”
Chen Fan returns to the weapons initial interface and starts searching for brass knuckles and other weapons.
Shen Hongxiu and the others curiously looked at Elder Ape and then at Chen Fan’s computer interface.
Buying weapons or battle armor for Guardian Beasts is not a strange thing.
After all, battle armor can enhance defense, and weapons can increase attack power.
However, Guardian Beasts have various shapes, and many have massive bodies, so how easy is it to forge fitting battle armor?
Human-shaped Guardian Beasts are relatively simpler by comparison.
For example, Chu Xuan’s beasts…
The Dark-blood Stone Golem has powerful defenses and defensive skills. Chu Xuan also equipped it with armor and a large hammer, making it aggressive with strong destructive power.
But for the Desert Wind Falcon and Heavy-armored Beetle King, using weapons becomes relatively more troublesome.
Would they bite a knife to chop people?
Helmets, a kind of local area armor, could be used.
Chen Fan wants to get a set of weapons for Elder Ape, mainly because Elder Ape’s current attack skills are a bit awkward.
[Monster Attribute]: Shadow
[Species Skills]: Shadow Canopy, Shadow Poison Claw, Frog Transformation, Ghost Shadow Step
“Shadow Poison Claw, ” this is Elder Ape’s only current attack skill.
When fighting Guardian Beasts or Beastmasters of the same level, combined with Shadow Canopy and Ghost Shadow Step, this move is actually terrifying.
Because ordinary Guardian Beasts or Beastmasters of the same level can’t see Elder Ape, they lose the first move and are almost certain to get hit by this move.
Once hit by the slow poison of this move, unless there is a way to detoxify, defeat is inevitable.
However, even for same-level Guardian Beasts, if they encounter Dark-blood Stone Golem or Black Iron Dragon Turtle with strong defenses, Elder Ape may only hide in the dark with nothing to do.
Because this move is too hard to break through their defenses!
If it comes to a real fight, no one can do anything to the other.
If Elder Ape hides, the Dark-blood Stone Golem and Black Iron Dragon Turtle won’t find him.
But if Elder Ape wants to break their defenses, it’s as difficult as climbing to heaven.
Under such conditions, it’s better to let Elder Ape wield a big hammer or play with a big sword.
Chen Fan had thought about whether to let Elder Ape play with a big sword.
In fact, Elder Ape had played with a big sword once before, and it looked quite decent…
When he encountered a Level 5 Heavenly Fire Ant on Ten Thousand Beast Mountain, Elder Ape used Chen Fan’s sword.
However, not using the available skills for the Guardian Beasts and instead letting Elder Ape learn swordsmanship always seemed like picking sesame seeds while losing the watermelon.
It’s better to keep weapons like swords and blades as a backup.
Regardless of whether Elder Ape’s “Shadow Poison Claw” evolves or not, giving him a weapon now will definitely make him a terrifying existence in this team!
A powerful Shadow Assassin can’t rely on “Frog Transformation” alone in combat.
Chen Fan observed Elder Ape’s claws.
He let Ye Hao bring a metal chair and then told Elder Ape, “Elder Ape, bring out your ‘Shadow Poison Claw’ skill and attack this chair seat.”
Elder Ape nodded slightly, shook both arms, and his claws moved as fast as a whirlwind, leaving a series of afterimages, scratching on the metal chair surface.
Although the chair is made of metal, the surface is quite thin, and Elder Ape’s claws directly scratched out five long cracks!
Chen Fan let Elder Ape come a little closer and looked down at his claws.
When Elder Ape used Shadow Poison Claw, some Star Power condensed on his arms, and more Star Power condensed on his claws.
Its nails became harder and sharper.
When “Shadow Poison Claw” was used, Elder Ape’s claws were extremely fast, so fast that everyone present could hardly capture the movement.
From a speed perspective, it’s difficult for Guardian Beasts or Beastmasters of the same level to dodge this move.
Especially when he sneaks with Shadow Canopy.
But if the sneak attack doesn’t break through the opponent’s defense, it becomes a bit frustrating.
Chen Fan grabbed Elder Ape’s right claw and checked…
After Elder Ape’s claws were used for the Shadow Poison Claw, they turned green, and the poison had completely seeped out.
It seems that as soon as this move is activated, the “Slow Poison” is infused to its fingertips.
But these claws are only sharp relative to ordinary Guardian Beasts.
They’re still far inferior to Gangzi’s teeth.
Gangzi’s teeth are very sharp, and even without using skills, ordinary bites are hard for Guardian Beasts or monsters without defensive skills to resist.
If Gangzi uses the “Crazy Bite” skill, it is possible to break through Dark-blood
Stone Golem’s defense.
But it’s only breaking through defense.
Since Gangzi’s teeth have no poison, even if they break through Dark-blood
Stone Golem’s defense, they may not cause much damage to it.
Chen Fan asked Chu Xuan to summon the Dark-blood Stone Golem.
At Chen Fan’s request, the Dark-blood Stone Golem took off its battle armor and then used the skill “Obsidian Armor.”
Elder Ape went forward and used “Shadow Poison Claw” on the Dark-blood Stone Golem.
“Chi chi chi chi chi!”
The Obsidian Armor was slightly scratched.
But after Elder Ape’s claws broke through the Obsidian Armor, his strength was almost exhausted, finally leaving five scratches on the Dark-blood Stone Golem’s body.
His claws didn’t tear through the Dark-blood Stone Golem’s body.
Elder Ape felt embarrassed and scratched his head.
Being a Level 5 Guardian Beast, its attack power was indeed much weaker than that of the Dark-blood Stone Golem.
After a moment of silence, Chen Fan began to examine various weapons like brass knuckles, iron fist gloves, and so on.
However, he couldn’t find a suitable weapon for Elder Ape.
Although brass knuckles were stronger than Elder Ape’s own claws, they couldn’t perfectly combine with the “sluggish poison effect.”
If there wasn’t a suitable weapon, he might have to put in some effort to create a customized weapon for Elder Ape.
Customized weapons were available in the East Sea City weapon storage.
It would just take more time and cost more money.
Shen Hongxiu saw Chen Fan frown and couldn’t help but ask, “You want to make gloves for Elder Ape that can increase its Attack Power while allowing it to use the sluggish poison effect?”
Chen Fan nodded and thoughtfully said, “I want to make a pair of steel gloves for him, with sharp blades on the fingertips.”
“Each fingertip will have a blade, so his hands will be like ten daggers…
“Inside the blade, there will be small holes designed… so when he uses ‘Shadow Poison Claw,’ the poison will flow into the blade through the holes.”
“In this way, when his claws scratch the enemy and break their defenses, even a small cut would inject the sluggish poison into the enemy’s body.”
“With such gloves, even the Dark-blood Stone Golem might not be able to resist his attack.”
As soon as Chen Fan finished speaking, Chu Xuan handed him a piece of paper.
“Huh?”
Chen Fan was stunned, taking the piece of paper.
It was a blueprint that depicted the weapon he had just described.
Chen Fan was speechless, looking at Chu Xuan, “You drew this while I was speaking?”
Chu Xuan nodded, “Yes.”
Chen Fan sighed in admiration, “You really should have been a painter.”
Back in the classroom, Chu Xuan had sketched lifelike images of various Guardian Beasts while researching how to defeat Shen Daodao’s Level 6 Dragon Blood Mad Lion.
Unexpectedly, the blueprint was completed just as Chen Fan finished speaking..
Chen Fan grinned and tapped the blueprint in his hand, saying, “It’s just what I want. I’ll send a message to the people at the weapon storage and have them come over to research this weapon with me!”
This weapon not only had strong attack power but also protected Elder Ape’s claws and wrists.
With this weapon, Elder Ape could even directly block an attack from a sword!
Ye Hao was very astonished, “Brother Fan, how did you come up with this?” Chen Fan replied, “How did I think of it? With my brain, of course!”
Ye Hao asked, “Can you help me think of some equipment for my Guardian Beasts?”
Chen Fan retorted, “Provide for yourself! Think about it yourself for your Guardian Beasts! ”
Shen Daodao looked unhappy and mumbled, “Chen Fan, doing this would make it hard for others to survive. Your Red-eyed Shadow Ape can turn invisible, sneak behind the enemy, and scratch them a couple of times to determine the winner?”
Chen Fan nodded, “That’s exactly what I was thinking.” Shen Daodao fell silent.
None of his three Guardian Beasts had defensive skills.
If Chen Fan’s Red-eyed Shadow Ape got such gloves, even his Level 6 Dragon Blood Mad Lion would be disabled by the sluggish poison if it was caught off guard!
Shen Daodao scratched his head in frustration, “No, I must equip my three Guardian Beasts with Battle Armor… the airtight kind!”
“Damn, this is too scary!”
Shen Hongxiu slapped Shen Daodao in the back of the head, “Don’t swear!”
Ye Hao agreed thoughtfully, “I’ve thought about Battle Armor and weapons for Guardian Beasts before.
“But my family only gives me 400,000 union coins every month, and with the school’s 80,000, that’s only 480,000. After buying high-level monster meat for the Guardian Beasts, there’s hardly any money left…”
“Now that we have 30-40 million, we can genuinely consider equipping them with powerful Battle Armor and weapons!”
Chu Xuan nodded, “When my Dark-blood Stone Golem first struck that black-robed man with a hammer, he caught it and almost crushed it…
“I plan to get a higher-level, tougher Wolf Tooth Hammer for it, and coat its spikes with poison.”
Shen Daodao and Ye Hao gasped, “Damn, when did you become so crafty and ruthless?”
Chu Xuan expressionless, “Those who live beside ink will turn black.”
Chen Fan’s face suddenly stretched, “Who are you talking about?”
Chu Xuan clarified, “Don’t get me wrong; I’m praising you.”
Chen Fan was speechless.
Shen Daodao squinted his eyes, “Speaking of poison, it reminds me… the itching powder Chen Fan used that day was really awesome!”
“Once the itching powder was out, the two black-robed men and their Guardian
Beasts nearly broke down!”
“After that, we had a chance to counterattack!”
“I’ll get some itching powder.”
Ye Hao pushed Shen Daodao, “It was us, not you. You were watching the whole time.”
Shen Daodao fell silent.
Shen Daodao opened his “computer” and prepared to buy some itching powder.
Ye Hao smirked slightly, “Don’t bother looking, there’s no more itching powder on the market.”
“What?” Not just Shen Daodao, Chen Fan and the others were also taken aback.
Ye Hao proudly said, “There were 16 merchants selling itching powder, with just two or three kilograms each. The night before last, I bought up all their itching powder and antidotes.” “Now there’s nothing left on the market.”
Everyone was left speechless..
