Chapter 163: The Most Unconventional Player of the Year
Bai Qi and others were a little surprised to see Sabretooth Tiger act like this.
Although Li Xusheng and Tang Miao are at a higher level than Alpha, so far, the damage caused by Alpha to them should be higher.
Could it be that this guy still chooses his enemies according to their levels?
Bai Qi and Wang Huai looked at each other, but because of Sabretooth's choice, Alpha and Gamma successfully joined forces. Gamma's emerald green body attached to Alpha's body, as if wearing a green armor.
Withered Dragon Lord - magic immunity state!
Although he has not yet developed resistance to wind attributes, Bai Qi believes that this is only a matter of time given the saber-toothed tiger's frequent attacks.
However, Sabretooth's fighting style of hiding in the wind is really troublesome, and we can only hope that Alpha's reaction speed is fast enough.
Sure enough, after repelling Li Xusheng and Tang Miao, the saber-toothed tiger disappeared again in the strong wind, and Wang Huai also took the opportunity to drag Li Xusheng and the others back.
"How are you two?"
Wang Huai looked at the two of them nervously and immediately summoned a flower fairy to treat them.
"I'm fine. The saber-toothed tiger seemed to hold back when attacking us. It didn't use its full strength."
"Retract your strength?"
Bai Qi was stunned when he heard this. Could it be that this saber-toothed tiger had lost too much blood and was weak?
As soon as Bai Qi had this thought, he saw a saber-toothed tiger suddenly appear. It slapped Alpha and Gamma away with one claw and directly smashed a big hole in the wall next to it.
Well, he was overthinking it.
Upon seeing this, Wang Huai immediately sent the Barrier Treeman to provide support, and then advised Bai Qi, "Bai Qi, are you sure you don't want your two pets to come back first? Now that the enemy is in the dark and we are in the light, we should take a defensive stance."
Bai Qi shook his head and said, "It's okay. Alpha and Gamma are both very durable. They will be fine."
The core part of Alpha is the head, while Gamma strictly speaking has no core part and can survive as long as it is not completely evaporated.
However, the saber-toothed tiger's attack was too hypocritical. It was submissive to Li Xusheng and Tang Miao, two fourth-level beastmasters, but attacked Alpha and Gamma, the third-level creatures, with heavy punches. It was not the right way to bully the weak and fear the strong.
It's impossible that he stopped just because he saw that these two were humans, right?
Um?
Bai Qi raised his eyebrows, as if he had thought of something.
"Shuke, is there a video of the saber-toothed tiger attacking Li Xusheng and his men?"
"have."
Shuke nodded, and directly played the video of the two people being knocked away, and very considerately lowered the playback speed.
I have to say that the saber-toothed tiger's attack speed is really fast. Even if it was slowed down ten times, its movements were still very fast. It retreated back into the strong wind almost as soon as its head appeared.
But this is enough.
Bai Qi operated on the keyboard for a while and finally stopped the screen at the moment when the saber-toothed tiger was about to attack the two people.
Although it was only a moment, a faint curse pattern suddenly appeared on the saber-toothed tiger's forehead when it was about to attack the two people, and then its power weakened.
"I see. This training ground actually has a protection mechanism. It should be to prevent the ferocious beasts from attacking humans."
Wang Huai heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing this. Since there was a protection mechanism in place, their safety should be fine. Even if they couldn't pass the level, they could still take the saber-toothed tiger's data out.
“It should be about the same.”
Bai Qi nodded, agreeing with Wang Huai's statement, but his eyes were still fixed on the curse pattern on the saber-toothed tiger's forehead.
He always felt like he had seen this spell somewhere before, but he just couldn't remember where it was.
"Ahem, Bai Qi, I think you should take care of your two pets."
Just as Bai Qi was trying hard to recall, Tang Miao finally couldn't bear it anymore and couldn't help but remind him.
Although the Barrier Treemen and the snakes and pythons of the Baili brothers were helping in the attack, the saber-toothed tiger seemed to have set its sights on these two, and almost every time it appeared it would target Alpha.
When Bai Qi heard this, he looked and found that the saber-toothed tiger seemed to be teasing Alpha. It kept slapping Alpha but never hit the vital point.
Seeing this, Bai Qi's eyes turned and sent a message to Alpha.
Crunch.
Alpha received the order and forcibly condensed an ice crystal barrier to separate himself from the saber-toothed tiger. Then he rolled on the ground and turned into a crystal sphere, with Alpha's head and Gamma wrapped inside the sphere.
Although the saber-toothed tiger was curious, it had no intention of stopping. It slapped with its claw, but suddenly let out a muffled groan and threw the crystal ball away, with blood flowing from its claws.
Why did you suddenly get injured?
Wang Huai and others looked at each other, obviously not understanding what had just happened.
But after seeing the crystal ball slowly rolling back, Wang Huai and others didn't know how to comment on it.
This is not a round ball, it's clearly a thorn ball!
The originally smooth crystal shell was now covered with sharp spikes of varying lengths and constantly changing. At the tops of those spikes, one could vaguely see flashes of faint blue light.
Don’t you like playing kicking the ball? I’ll fulfill your wish. It depends on whether you dare or not.
An evil smile appeared on Bai Qi's face. Although the power of withering could only be released externally, it could still flow within the crystal skeleton, but at a slower speed.
Anyway, there is no way they can surpass the saber-toothed tiger in speed, so they might as well give up the attack and wait for the opponent to come to them.
If you don't let me use energy attacks, I'll wait for you to come by yourself. With the power of withering attached to the spikes, Bai Qi is not worried about not being able to break the defense.
As for the anti-armor, it’s all about defense and counterattack.
Thinking of this, Bai Qi simply asked Gamma to turn on the poisonous aura, and just lay there quietly waiting for the saber-toothed tiger to come.
Seeing this, the saber-toothed tiger seemed to realize that this was a tough nut to crack, and immediately changed its target, wanting to deal with the other pets first, but found that the Barrier Treeman and others had been summoned back to the Beast Taming Space at some point, and even the Husky and other pets had been put away.
"Bai Qi, aren't we taking this too risky?"
Following Bai Qi's advice, Wang Huai stood defenselessly in front of the saber-toothed tiger, feeling a little panicked. So did the others, all ready to summon their pets at any time.
After all, they have received various professional trainings, and almost every tactic is the most effective method explored by countless people, but people like Bai Qi really do not act according to common sense.
"What else? A fifth-order monarch-level ancient species, do you expect us to win?"
Bai Qi couldn't help but roll his eyes. Judging from the feedback from Shuke's energy detector, the saber-toothed tiger was obviously in a state of extreme energy deficiency. Simply put, it was malnourished.
If the big cat continued to vent its strength mindlessly like it did at the beginning, they would have a chance to slowly drain its blood and wear it out.
But now, this guy clearly intends to launch a sneak attack on you, and he is still in his own king's position. Don't even think about a sneak attack, and a forceful attack is also unlikely, so defending instead of attacking is the best method.
As for them, instead of letting the saber-toothed tiger change its target and consume their combat power bit by bit, it would be better for them to be single and take a gamble, leaving the saber-toothed tiger with no choice.
Fortunately, Bai Qi made the right bet.
After seeing Bai Qi and the others just standing there, Sabretooth Tiger immediately wanted to launch an attack. But just as it was about to do so, the rune appeared on its forehead again, forcibly stopping Sabretooth Tiger's actions.
There are indeed restrictions!
Seeing that the saber-toothed tiger really could not attack them, Wang Huai and others secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but Li Xusheng looked at Bai Qi deeply, with a complicated look in his eyes.
Unable to attack Bai Qi and others, the saber-toothed tiger could only turn its attention to Alpha, only to find that Alpha had expanded in size again at some point.
Correspondingly, the number of bone spurs on the body surface has increased significantly.
Seeing this, the saber-toothed tiger once again hid in the strong wind and kept moving around Alpha, while the spikes on Alpha's body were also slowly adjusting their direction. As long as there was a possibility that the saber-toothed tiger would appear, the spikes on that end would instantly extend.
The saber-toothed tiger was obviously unwilling to continue waiting like this, and suddenly left the strong wind and grabbed Alpha, with a dark light flashing on its sharp claws. It was obvious that it was going to fight head-on and smash Alpha to pieces with one claw.
Then, just as the saber-toothed tiger was about to hit Alpha, the spikes on Alpha's body suddenly grew rapidly and pierced its claws before the saber-toothed tiger could.
Oooooh!
The saber-toothed tiger instinctively wanted to throw Alpha away in pain, but Alpha had predicted this behavior of the saber-toothed tiger. The moment the bone spur pierced into the saber-toothed tiger's palm, it quickly spread and split deep into the saber-toothed tiger's flesh and blood, and was completely fixed on the saber-toothed tiger's palm, while injecting the power of withering into it bit by bit.
The saber-toothed tiger immediately noticed something was wrong and simply swung its claws towards the ground, trying to smash Alpha directly. However, the moment it touched the ground, it did not feel any force at all, but found that Gamma had appeared out of nowhere and acted as a cushion.
However, facing the Sabretooth Tiger's enormous strength, Gamma has reached his limit and may be crushed at any time.
However, because of Gamma's delay, Alpha took the opportunity to enlarge the saber-toothed tiger's wound and actually drilled into it. Gamma was not willing to be left behind and drilled into the saber-toothed tiger's forelimbs along Alpha's bones.
Faced with this attack from within the body, the saber-toothed tiger had no idea where to start and could only roll and scratch on the ground, but it was unable to stop Alpha from moving slowly inside its body.
Finally, after struggling for a while, the saber-toothed tiger's movements suddenly stopped, its huge eyeballs suddenly turned blood red, and it gradually became silent.
Even a monarch-level creature cannot survive if its brain is destroyed.
"Bai Qi, is this how all the beastmasters in your association fight? Did you know that you just jumped two levels and killed a monarch-level beast?"
Wang Huai stared blankly at Alpha and Gamma, two third-level lord creatures. They actually killed a fifth-level king-level ancient species just like that. Wang Huai was still a little dazed.
Is this really something a normal person can do?
"I don't know about others, but I don't think so."
Bai Qi shrugged, then pointed behind the two and said, "Besides, you don't really think that monarch-level creatures are so weak, do you? They are obviously suppressed, am I right, Instructor Luo?!"
