I've Activated The Hidden Path of Beast Evolution - Chapter 215
215 Good at Invisibility
“Not good, it’s the Blue Viper!”
Seeing this, Xiao Xiao immediately summoned his pets, the Frost Tyrannosaurus and the Venomous Ant Queen. The Frost Tyrannosaurus and the Venomous Ant Queen were both intermediate Rank-7 pets. There was also a humanoid pet in armor, which was at the early Rank-7.
He asked his pets to attack the giant snake, which diverted its attention. Only then did Xiao Wu return to the team safely.
“Where did you go? Why did you attract the Blue Viper?” Xiao Xiao asked seriously.
Xiao Wu handed the spirit herb to him with an aggrieved expression. “I saw a Fire Silkworm Spirit Herb, but it grew on the cliff. I climbed up to pick it and found a snake guarding it.”
The Blue Viper spat out its venom to attack. The Frost Tyrannosaurus immediately froze with its attack. The Blue Viper’s venom was a hundred times more poisonous than the Purple Viper’s. If anyone touched it, their skin would fester and their entire body would be poisoned. If it was serious, they would die on the spot.
The Venomous Ant Queen immediately attacked with its venom. Her venom was not as strong as the Blue Viper, but its power was not low. The strength of the poisoned monster would be reduced by half. This Venomous Ant Queen was Xiao Xiao’s trump card. He would not use it unless it was such an important moment, but in order to save Xiao Wu, he did not care so much.
However, after the Blue Viper received the venom attack of the ant queen, its combat strength only decreased by half. This surprised Xiao Xiao. He did not expect the Blue Viper to be so difficult to deal with. It was only an intermediate Rank-7 monster, but it was actually so troublesome.
At this moment, the humanoid armored soldier had already jumped up with a saber and slashed at its target, the Blue Viper. The slash was fast, accurate, and ruthless. The Blue Viper didn’t have time to react before it was hit. The scales and armor on its body were cracked. If it was hit a few more times, it might shatter. At that time, the Blue Viper would lose the scales that protected it and become much easier to deal with.
Thinking that, Xiao Xiao ordered the three pets to continue taking turns. While exhausting the Blue Viper, they could also find an opportunity to attack.
Seeing Xiao Xiao’s experienced reaction, Ye Fan’s eyes flashed. Along the way, he could tell that Xiao Xiao was interested in Xiao Wu. Since Xiao Xiao could deal with this monster, he would not interfere. He would not participate in such a heroic act. Then, he moved his gaze to the system interface and looked at the information of the Blue Viper.
Name: Blue Viper
Level: Intermediate Rank-8
Skill Characteristics: The venom’s effect is fierce. The poisoned person will explode and die in five minutes. It’s good at invisibility.
Detoxification: There is an antidote for the poison in the materials dropped after death.
Wait! He had forgotten about the invisibility ability. Just now, he was wondering why Xiao Xiao could fight so easily. There was general information about the Blue Viper on the Internet. It said that it liked to attack other monsters when it was invisible.
Ye Fan suddenly raised his head to look at the battle, he saw that the Blue Viper was drawing out the battle and slowly retreating. Xiao Xiao’s group members all looked like victory was in their grasp, they felt that their leader had completely grasped the rhythm of the battle and was about to take down this Blue Viper.
Only Ye Fan knew that this was not the case, because the Blue Viper was aggressive, just like the Purple Viper. Even if it knew that the other party was strong, it was not afraid at all. Instead, it kept attacking, unwilling to let the enemy go. Thus, there was definitely a reason for this. This Blue Viper was not retreating or trying to escape, it was planning to turn invisible at the right time and launch a sneak attack.
Realizing that, he was about to remind them when he saw that the battlefield was already far away. Xiao Xiao felt that they should pursue the victory. After all, the materials dropped after the Blue Viper was defeated were several times more than those dropped by the Purple Viper. For the sake of the materials, the Green Stone Hunter Corps naturally couldn’t let the monster escape. Therefore, he ordered his three pets to chase after them.
“Wait! Xiao Xiao, the situation is not right. Retreat!”
After Ye Fan finished speaking, the other members were stunned and laughed. Zhang Xiong also smiled and patted Ye Fan’s shoulder.
“What’s wrong? The team leader defeated that Blue Viper. As long as he attacks again, he will definitely win. If we don’t chase after it now, wouldn’t we have let a big fish escape for nothing?”
“That’s right. Although the leader’s strength is inferior to yours, he’s the strongest among us. Our leader can still deal with a Rank-7 Blue Viper!”
Did he think that he was stronger than them just because he had defeated a Fire Swallowing Beast? He hadn’t even moved when Xiao Wu had asked for help. Now that their leader was about to win, what did he mean by stopping their leader?
No one listened to Ye Fan now. They just stood there and watched the commotion, waiting for the three pets to return with good news.
Ye Fan frowned slightly, he could only follow, but in the next second, he was pulled back by Zhang Xiong, whose arm hanging on his shoulder.
“Brother Ye Fan, don’t worry, our leader will definitely be fine.”
Being restrained by Zhang Xiong, Ye Fan was a little anxious, he could only ask Anissa to chase after him. Anissa heard her master’s instructions and immediately chased after him. The group members felt that Ye Fan was thinking too much. They were about to win, what was there to be nervous about?
However, ever since the pets chased after it, they had been unusually quiet. When Xiao Xiao realized that something was wrong, there was suddenly a loud bang. The energy wave shocked everyone.
“Not good!” Ye Fan and Xiao Xiao immediately chased after them to check on the situation. They saw Xiao Xiao’s three pets lying on the ground with injuries. The Blue Viper opened its bloody mouth and let out an especially deafening cry, as if it was mocking them.
Suddenly, the Blue Viper spat venom at the three pets. At the critical moment, Anissa blocked it with her blood shield. However, the blood shield was filled with venom and could not be used again.
Although the three pets were saved, Xiao Xiao was dumbfounded. The other members were also dumbfounded. They didn’t know what had happened at all. Why had the situation changed so drastically? The Blue Viper, which had fled in a sorry state just now, was exceptionally strong at this moment. The three pets that had the upper hand just now were all injured.
“It’s the invisibility skill. This is the talent of the Blue Viper. Xiao Xiao, didn’t you come here once before?”
The Blue Viper was different from the Purple Viper. The Purple Viper did not have the ability to turn invisible, but the Blue Viper had the ability to turn invisible. Ye Fan calmly looked at Xiao Xiao.
Xiao Xiao was shocked, he had forgotten about this, but no one had reminded him at that time. Ye Fan seemed to want to say something, but they did not care, that was why this happened. Xiao Xiao’s expression was a little bad, he realized that he had been too careless and had actually forgotten such an important point.
The other members were also stunned when they arrived, they could not believe that the situation would change so drastically. After hearing Ye Fan’s words, they understood why this happened. Zhang Xiong blamed himself for stopping Ye Fan, the others also wanted to say something but did not know how to comfort him.
In this moment of delay, they still had to deal with the Blue Viper in front of them that had activated Berserk mode. The blood that was originally used for combat could not be used repeatedly at this moment. The blood in her body had yet to recover. Anissa originally wanted to use the blood to transform into a weapon to fight. However, the Blue Viper’s venom could be spat out three times in a row, which meant that there was still one more time. If Anissa’s blood could not withstand another attack, it would affect the battle.
