Chapter 177: Watching from the Other Side and Enjoying the Efforts
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Without any hesitation, Wang Xiao immediately jumped down from the cliff. At the same time, he summoned the Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon to catch him and rushed towards the few Breakthrough Stones!
At the same time, the [Silver Shadow Leopard] was also attracted by those shiny things. Although it did not know what they were, it could sense the rich energy aura inside!
A silver light flashed, and both sides rushed towards the Breakthrough Stones at the same time.
The speed of the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] was extremely fast. However, it was too far from the target and was slightly slower in the end. Wang Xiao could only watch helplessly as the [Silver Shadow Leopard] took the few [Breakthrough Stones] away.
However, if Wang Xiao let it go like this, it would simply be uncharacteristic of him.
In a flash, Wang Xiao suddenly slapped the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon]. “[Endless Swamp] ! ”
Swoosh!
As soon as he finished speaking, an earth attribute energy ring spread out and instantly turned the surrounding hundreds of meters into a rotten quagmire.
Almost at the same time, a mud pillar suddenly exploded dozens of meters away. Before Wang Xiao could give the order, the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] understood and flew over.
Before long, he arrived and saw a leopard the size of a calf covered in silver short fur struggling desperately in the rotten quagmire. It kicked its hind legs as if it wanted to jump out.
However, every time it exerted strength, it was cushioned by the surrounding mud. In the end, it sank deeper and deeper.
Seeing this scene, Wang Xiao knew that the previous ground explosion must have been caused by this Silver Shadow Leopard. It seemed that other than speed, the strength of the Silver Shadow Leopard could not be underestimated. However, now that the Silver Shadow Leopard had fallen into the swamp, it could not unleash its strength no matter how much strength it had.
At the same time, the [Silver Shadow Leopard] also discovered the Dark Swamp
Crocodile Dragon and Wang Xiao who had rushed over. Although the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] did not show any intention of attacking, the platinum-quality mutated beast pressure still exerted a considerable pressure on the [Silver Shadow Leopard].
Be it fear or calmness, in short, the trembling Silver Shadow Leopard no longer struggled. More than half of its body was submerged in the swamp as it looked at Wang Xiao in fear with its silver-white eyes.
Seeing the Silver Shadow Leopard’s gaze, Wang Xiao suddenly felt a little sorry.
He had not interfered in this battle from the beginning to the end. Now that he had jumped out and obtained it without working, it was more or less a little unreasonable.
Thinking of this, Wang Xiao directly gave up on attacking. He looked at the
Silver Shadow Leopard and probed, “I only want the stones in your mouth. If you give them to me, I’ll save you. How about that?”
Wang Xiao said and gestured for a long time. In the end, the fear in the eyes of the Silver Shadow Leopard became even stronger.
Wang Xiao was immediately speechless. This was the bad thing about low-level mutated beasts. All their actions were driven by their instincts. Unless they signed a lord contract, it was simply impossible to communicate with it.
Thinking of this, Wang Xiao could not be bothered to discuss further. He directly patted the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] and said, “Knock it out!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon turned around and the Silver Shadow Leopard was knocked unconscious by its tail. Then, Wang Xiao asked the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] to remove the skill effect. When the ground condensed again, he jumped down and opened the mouth of the [Silver Shadow Leopard], taking out all the [Breakthrough Stones] inside.
To Wang Xiao’s surprise, other than the five Breakthrough Stones, there was actually another unformed Mutated Core!
Seeing this thing, Wang Xiao suddenly felt a little afraid.
The [Decay Poison Corpse Python] was now at the peak of silver level three. If they had come in a few days later, it would have most likely broken through to gold level one. Coupled with this [Mutated Core], it would be a gold quality dual attribute mutated beast!
Although Wang Xiao wouldn’t be defeated with his current strength, he would definitely suffer heavy losses if he was ambushed by gold-quality exotic beasts.
Thinking of this, Wang Xiao looked at the unconscious Silver Shadow Leopard. Since this mutated beast could kill the [Decay Poison Corpse Python] alone, it must have reached the bottleneck of breaking through. Perhaps it could also drop many [Breakthrough Stones]?
As soon as this thought appeared, it was immediately rejected by Wang Xiao. Although the [Silver Shadow Leopard] did not understand what he said, since he had decided to let the [Silver Shadow Leopard] go, he would definitely not go back on his word.
“You’re lucky to meet someone as trustworthy as me.”
Wang Xiao patted the Silver Shadow Leopard’s head, opened its mouth, and placed the incomplete Mutated Core inside.
The incomplete Mutated Core could not be used for breakthroughs and was not very useful to Wang Xiao. However, the energy contained in it was still very beneficial to the growth of mutated beasts.
After thinking for a moment, Wang Xiao took out two bottles of recovery potion, opened the mouth of the Silver Shadow Leopard, and drank it. He treated it as payment for the [Breakthrough Stone].
After setting up, Wang Xiao climbed onto the back of the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] and left. Although the [Silver Shadow Leopard] was still trapped in the soil, the ground had already condensed. It was not difficult for it to escape after waking up.
However, what Wang Xiao did not know was that the moment the Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon flew into the sky, the Silver Shadow Leopard silently opened its eyes.
After flying quickly, Wang Xiao returned to the spot where he had entered the secret realm. At this moment, a base had already risen from the ground.
Zhou Xiruo made full use of the environment here and built two ten-meter-tall solid walls to connect the two sides of the mountain wall. This way, she did not have to worry about the enemy attacking from both sides.
At the same time, at the top of the two walls, there were five purple quality Flame Magic Towers burning. Once someone attacked from the front and back, these Flame Magic Towers would give the enemy a head-on blow.
“This month of training was really not in vain!”
Wang Xiao sized up this base and thought to himself. In the past, it would have taken Zhou Xiruo at least two hours to build such a base, but now, Wang Xiao had only left for more than half an hour.
At this moment, Zhou Xiruo was building an arrow tower on the wall behind her. From the corner of her eye, she saw a black shadow fly into the base, but there was no reaction from the fortifications. She knew that Wang Xiao had returned.
“How’s the situation?”
Zhou Xiruo asked without turning around.
“The situation here is indeed more dangerous than ordinary small secret realms. I just witnessed an exciting battle
As Wang Xiao spoke, he came behind Zhou Xiruo. “However, the gains here are indeed not small. Look at this.”
Zhou Xiruo turned around and immediately saw the five sparkling stones in Wang Xiao’s hand. Her face immediately revealed a pleasantly surprised expression. “So many [Breakthrough Stones]?! Where did you get them?”
“I picked them up.”
Wang Xiao chuckled and roughly explained the Dragon Tiger Fight just now.
Hearing Wang Xiao knock out the [Silver Shadow Leopard] and snatch the [Breakthrough Stones], Zhou Xiruo could not help but reveal a disdainful expression. “Don’t you feel guilty for taking their spoils of war just like that?” “I didn’t take it for nothing. I even gave it two recovery potions!”
Wang Xiao replied confidently. Before Zhou Xiruo could speak, he said, “In short, I made the right choice to come to this secret realm today.. Perhaps I can gather all fifteen [Breakthrough Stones]!”
