Chapter 23: Just a little electricity
Half an hour later, the trainee entered the shore of Taize Lake under the leadership of the Beastmaster Corps, while more beastmasters returned in disgrace.
"I really envy these rookies. I heard that this secret tower is a trial-type tower. Even if you only clear one level, you can still gain a lot of resources."
"Tsk, if you have the ability, become an apprentice beastmaster and see if the instructor will beat you to death. If you survive, you can go."
The instructor turned around and glared at several soldiers, saying, "Stop making trouble, go to your respective positions, and don't let any casualties occur."
"yes!"
The soldiers' faces immediately straightened, and after all the trainee beastmasters entered the shore of Taize Lake, they quietly followed behind.
Although the instructor's previous words were meant to scare people, this experience was indeed a little different from usual. The order they received was to protect these rookies in secret and not to provide assistance unless necessary.
However, the trainee beastmasters inside would not know this.
…
The shore of Taize Lake.
A group of trainee beastmasters scattered after entering the shore of Taize Lake.
This experience concerns a spot in the secret tower, and no one wants to waste time.
"Bai Qi, why don't we team up together so we can take care of each other."
Gao Cheng's pet beast is already at the first level. Although he has not yet passed the professional beastmaster assessment, it can still handle this kind of experience with ease, so he doesn't mind bringing Bai Qi along.
"Thanks, but I still want to try it myself."
Bai Qi rejected Gao Cheng's kindness. Points were important, but catching beasts was also important. It was always inconvenient to act with Gao Cheng.
"Then be careful and try to complete the task as soon as possible."
Gao Cheng didn't care about being rejected by Bai Qi. He summoned the Fire Scorpion and headed towards the depths of the lake.
Although you can pass the training here by accumulating enough points, there will definitely be a ranking, which may directly affect the order of entering the secret tower.
After Gao Cheng left, Bai Qi quickly determined his goal.
【Name】: Crystal Crocodile
[Race]: Crystal System
[Growth Level]: Level 0, Level 8
[Bloodline Level]: Mid-level elite
[Racial Skills]: Crystallization, Bite, Charge
[Introduction]: Hide in the lake and launch a sneak attack on the enemy.
[Points]: 200
Although the Crystal Crocodile is only two levels behind the Ice Ghost, the points difference is a full 800 points. However, compared to a guy like the Chinchilla who only has 30 or 40 points, it is already pretty good.
However, the reason why Bai Qi chose the crystal crocodile was not its points, but its attributes.
The most common beasts in Gusu City are wolf and ice beasts. Although there has been a craze for the undead recently, it is still difficult to shake the status of these two beasts in Gusu City.
Bai Qi rarely encounters ferocious beasts with properties like the crystal crocodile.
"Let's go, let's hurry up and get some beasts."
Bai Qi determined his goal, which was to summon Alpha and strode towards the direction of the crystal crocodile. Although the Husky was reluctant, he had no choice but to follow obediently.
As an important means of transportation and biological radar, Bai Qi will not let it go easily.
"Alpha, pay attention to the situation around you. If any ferocious beast appears, be the first to attack."
This was Bai Qi's first time to participate in a training. Although the mechanical eye floating above his head confirmed his suspicion that he was still protected, it is better to be safe than sorry.
I finally unlocked the golden finger. It would be a huge loss if I died during the training.
He who strikes first is the strongest; he who strikes last will suffer.
Bai Qi still understood this principle.
…
Lakeside.
The map in the points atlas was very detailed. Bai Qi and Alpha walked along the river bank for a while and arrived near the lake.
During this period they also encountered some creatures, and Bai Qi even encountered Alpha's kind, but most of them did not have many points, and some even had no points at all, and they were all easily dealt with by Alpha.
Based on the principle of not wasting, Bai Qi wanted to collect them all, but after seeing the resentful look of the Husky, he chose to give up.
Although the mechanical prosthesis has almost been integrated with the Husky's flesh and blood, it is still a disabled dog after all, and it is not good to exploit its labor force too much.
"found it!"
The two of them walked cautiously along the lakeside, and saw a huge crystal crocodile on the river bank sunbathing with its mouth wide open. The crystal cluster on its back reflected colorful rays of light under the sunlight.
Roar!
The crystal crocodile was very alert. As soon as Bai Qi and the others approached, it sensed something happening. It roared, and its pair of fierce little eyes fixed its gaze firmly on the suddenly appearing enemy.
However, after seeing the enemy's appearance clearly, the Crystal Crocodile suddenly showed no interest.
I thought it was food delivered to my door, but it turned out to be a pile of bones. It was really boring.
However, the dog and human at the back seemed to taste good.
A long line of saliva immediately appeared in the crystal crocodile's mouth, and its short limbs swung at an alarming frequency as it quickly charged towards the men.
Charge!
The crystal crocodile is quite large, so it usually moves slowly. However, after using the charge function, its speed will increase dramatically, and ordinary enemies will not have enough time to react.
"Alpha, its body is very tough, attack its eyes."
Bai Qi gave Alpha a few instructions through the contract and then quickly hid aside. However, the Husky was even faster and had already found a big rock to hide behind.
Compared to the huge body of the crystal crocodile, the pair of small eyes takes up almost no proportion, so it is extremely difficult to hit them. In addition, the huge force it carries when it charges can cause serious injuries if you are not careful.
If it was before, Alpha might just run around stupidly to consume the energy of the crystal crocodile, but now...
Alpha was dancing with two bone daggers in his hands, his entire skeleton was shining with metallic luster, the soul fire in his eye sockets kept flickering, and he stared at the crystal crocodile that was getting closer and closer in front of him.
In Alpha's perception, the speed of the crystal crocodile was almost the same , so it did not move aside until the crystal crocodile was about to hit it, and then stabbed the crystal crocodile's eyes with a knife.
The crystal crocodile sensed the threat and instinctively used its defensive skill, crystallization. A transparent crystal spread out from the crystal cluster on its back, trying to cover its body.
But Alpha's speed was still too fast. Before the crystal could spread to his eyes, the dagger had already pierced into his eyes.
After playing steel man pole for so long and being influenced by countless movies, Alpha's movements became simpler and clearer, and he finally brought out his speed advantage.
The intense pain made the Crystal Crocodile scream, and it opened its huge mouth to bite Alpha.
After all, Alpha's dagger was still a little short and failed to hit the crystal crocodile's vital point.
At this moment, fine electric currents suddenly emerged from Alpha's palm and flowed into the body of the crystal crocodile along the metalized bone dagger. The crystal crocodile's movements suddenly froze and stopped.
The crystal crocodile's brain was forcibly destroyed by this strong electric current.
