Beast Taming: I Can Evolve Indefinitely - Chapter 433
Chapter 433: Chapter 429: It’s Common Knowledge That Summoners Excel in Close Combat, Right?
“Dark Race Summoner?”
Bai Qi was taken aback by this, quickly picking up his smart brain to search, finally finding the relevant data in a book detailing extinct pets.
[Name]: Dark Race Summoner
[Nature]: Shadow
[Bloodline Level]: High-grade King
[Introduction]: Formed through the fusion of several powerful souls, it has created a new shadow body through the power of shadow, it can continuously summon the Dark Demons from the shadow for combat.
…
“A creature with a summoning ability? That’s indeed very rare.”
Bai Qi’s eyes lit up at the words. Even though Lords and beings above them could control the behavior of their own race, it’s merely taking control through forceful bloodline suppression, far different from summoning.
With the arrival of the Dark Race Summoner, the number of Dark Demons gradually increased, and those shadow entities, which would crumble upon a touch, also became strengthened, increasingly capable of enduring the Diamond Strength.
“Enhancing summoned creatures, indeed a summoner’s setup.”
Bai Qi nodded lightly, saying, “Schuck and Jerry, the target is out. It’s time to get to work.”
“We’ve been ready for a long time.”
Schuck nodded, the Mechanical Lord operating, instantly transformed into a mechanical turret. The energy cannon condensed by Diamond Strength endlessly plunged into the shadow creatures.
Switching from defense to offense using Diamond Strength, it immediately demonstrated its nature of defeating demons. Coupled with the effects of the Mechanical Heart, even the Dark Demons were smashed by Schuck’s fierce attack.
Despite seeing his summoned creatures being so easily erased, the Dark Race Summoner remained extraordinarily calm. Several shadow vortexes emerged behind him, and several large Dark Demons emerged from them.
As advanced versions of Dark Demons, Dark Demons are much stronger in both size and combat power. After avoiding several artillery strikes, they charge towards Schuck from various directions.
Seeing this, Schuck immediately adjusted his tactics. Several mechanical giant wolves separated from his body, each selecting a Dark Demon to pounce on.
These mechanical giant wolves also contain Diamond Strength, regardless of the astonishing volume of the Dark Demons, they were still firmly suppressed by the mechanical giant wolves when faced with restraint attributes.
With his summoned beasts being suppressed one after another, the number of shadow vortexes behind the Dark Race Summoner increased again. The souls in the abyss seemed to have heard some kind of summons, gathering towards this side one after another.
“Summoners are indeed troublesome.”
Looking at the seemingly endless souls around him, Bai Qiucha immediately withdrew his war-ready state, allowing the Bone Dragon to join the battle.
Being a high-grade king as well, the Bone Dragon also imposed tremendous pressure on the Dark Race Summoner. Those souls and Dark Demons could not withstand a single blow under the dragon breath of the Bone Dragon.
Despite this, The Husky and the Bone Dragon still couldn’t get a step closer to the Dark Race Summoner.
“There’s enough of them now, leave the rest to me.”
Seeing the increasing number of Dark Demons, Jerry opened his eyes again. The Heart of Death God, which absorbed countless soul power, immediately fed back this power to the Husky.
The Mechanical Lord and the Guardian of the Underworld form switched instantly. The transformation process was as smooth as a flowing river, with no delay whatsoever.
However, without the firepower suppression of the Mechanical Lord, the Dark Demons finally untied their hands and feet, they roared and pounced on the Husky. The Dark Race Summoner seemed to see an opportunity and suddenly condensed a halo under him, covering a hundred meters around him.
With the enhancement of the aura, the speed and attacks of the Dark Demons were significantly enhanced, even the speed of summoning increased a bit.
[Skill Name]: Shadow Aura
[Skill Level]: Advanced
[Skill Introduction]: Can enhance the attributes and shadow energy of friendly forces within the aura range.
…
“The combination of a summoner and an aura is indeed strong.”
Bai Qi nodded slightly, lightly stroking Gamma inside his chest pocket.
Gamma had plenty of aura skills, apart from the Holy Storm and Doomsday that had already transformed into force fields, Schizonepeta Body was a counterattack skill, Deadly Poison Aura and Bloodsucking Aura were both debuff skills.
The kind of group enhancement aura like that of the Dark Race Summoner was something he didn’t have.
“Next, it seems worth paying attention to similar aura skills if any, preferably those that are generic.”
His summoned beasts had different races and attributes. If it’s only a single attribute aura, even if he gains it, its effect would be insignificant. If there were a generic aura skill that works for a group, the effect on group battles would be huge.
However, facing the rushing Dark Demons, Jerry didn’t worry at all. The Judgment Scale appeared behind him abruptly, and all the Dark Demons froze in place, no longer moving.
No matter how low their spiritual intelligence were, whether they were souls or the Dark Demons that could execute complicated orders, they all had souls.
As long as there was a soul, facing the interrogation of the Judgment Scale, unless they fought back with equal or stronger spirit power, it would be hard to resist.
Just like that, Jerry broke through to the Dark Race Summoner’s face with ease. The glowing golden scepter slammed straight into the Dark Race Summoner’s skull.
Bang!
With a loud noise, Jerry, who had been reinforced with a lot of soul power, was sent flying out. While the Dark Race Summoner, who was supposed to be severely injured under Jerry’s attack, was indestructible and gradually descended to the ground.
Watching Jerry, who quickly stabilized his figure and was preparing to continue the attack, the Dark Race Summoner opened his mouth. The nearby Dark Demons were suddenly pulled back, all drilling into the Dark Race Summoner’s mouth.
At the same time, the Dark Race Summoner’s body gradually swelled. The black cloak outside also gradually merged into the stout body of the Dark Race Summoner.
In the blink of an eye, a frail summoner instantly transformed into a robust warrior.
“As expected, it’s common knowledge that summoners excel at close combat…”
Bai Qi sighed helplessly at this sight. No wonder even Nicholas had noticed this Dark Race Summoner; he truly was extraordinary.
“Bai Qi, should we step in to help?”
Noticing the tremendous changes in the Dark Race Summoner’s aura, Bai Qiucha furrowed his eyebrows, preparing to assist.
Although their main objective for the visit was to train their beasts, the premise was naturally safety.
If they rushed and caused damage, it would be a significant loss.
“Don’t worry, Jerry still has strength to spare.”
Bai Qi contemplated for a moment, rejecting Bai Qiucha’s offer of help.
Even though Jerry had been at a disadvantage during the first exchange of blows, his main shortcoming was underestimating his enemy. Having accumulated so much Power of Soul, Jerry wasn’t finished yet.
Besides, the Dark Race Summoner had just done something incredibly foolish.
Looking at the summoner’s increasingly colossal body, a ray of contempt flashed through Jerry’s eyes. Dark gold energy gradually spread to his scepter, etching an odd rune upon it.
From a distance, it appeared somewhat similar to the Judgment Scale behind Jerry.
Roar!
Upon seeing this, the Dark Race Summoner no longer hesitated. Taking a thunderous step, he transformed into a shadow and pounced in front of Jerry. His massive fists continuously hammered at Jerry, forcing him into a defensive position with the scepter due to the swift speed and immense power.
The high-grade king of the six stages had indeed massive advantages in all attributes.
However, gradually, the Dark Race Summoner’s actions became slightly slower, his strength progressively weakened, and the rhythm slowly started shifting in favor of Jerry.
“Has the enhancement duration expired?”
Bai Qiucha frowned slightly, putting on the Bone Dragon Helmet once again, only to surprisingly notice that the Dark Race Summoner had been enveloped by strands of dark aura at some point. Moreover, with Jerry attacking, the dark aura was increasing continuously.
“Shadow Power? No, it seems a little different.”
“That’s the power of a curse.”
Bai Qi explained.
Any creature attacked by the Judgment Scale would be corroded by the Curse Power. However, the spirit power of the Dark Race Summoner was far superior to Jerry, so the Judgement Scale could only impede his actions at most.
However, the situation completely changed once the Dark Race Summoner started consuming Dark Demons.
Bai Qi wasn’t quite clear about the current state of Dark Demons inside the summoner, but as per Jerry, the souls of the Dark Demons had remained intact within the summoner’s body.
Therefore, these Cursed Powers were not the Dark Race Summoner’s but belonged to the Dark Demons within his body.
But, it didn’t matter whose they were anyway.
As the Cursed Power kept accumulating, the Dark Race Summoner’s condition became worse. Both his Spirit Power and Energy Value began dwindling visibly at an alarming rate, reducing him to a mere target for Jerry.
Soon, the Dark Race Summoner also realized where the problem lay, and he attempted to vomit out the Dark Demons within his body.
However, Jerry had long been prepared for this. As soon as the Dark Race Summoner opened his mouth, Jerry precisely thrust his scepter into it. The Diamond Strength surged forth, piercing directly through the Dark Race Summoner’s skull.
The soul core was broken, and the body of the Dark Race Summoner scattered into fragments of shadow power. This attracted nearby shadow beings, scrambling to devour them.
The power of a High-grade King of Six Stages was indeed a big supplement for these low-intellect shadow beings.
But similarly, it was the same for Jerry.
Jerry took a deep breath, swallowing all the shadow power along with a few nearby souls.
After absorbing the escaping shadow power from the Dark Race Summoner, Jerry’s exhausted energy was replenished. Instead of hurrying back to Bai Qi, Jerry pulled back his scepter and carefully took a crystal from it.
A Soul Crystal was condensed from the soul of the Dark Race Summoner, refined by the Diamond Strength.
Woo woo!
(What a delicious aroma, I want to eat!)
Beta was the first to notice the uniqueness of this Soul Crystal, just as Alpha and the Bone Dragon, who also belonged to the Undead Department, stirred up unconsciously.
Jerry simply ignored the stirring of the three pets, picked up the crystal and swallowed it directly.
Woo woo…
(My Soul Crystal…)
“We’re one entity, does it matter who eats it?”
Jerry glanced indifferently at Beta and said.
Woo~
(But I didn’t get to taste it~)
