Chapter 104: Three-Star
Chapter 104: Three-Star
There are no cultivation techniques or secret methods for enhancing the strength of Summon Beasts. The only way to improve their power is through training and combat.
Some Summoners proposed the concept of an experience bar for Summon Beasts, believing that there's an invisible experience bar that governs their strength. They theorize that a Summon Beast's strength can only increase once this hidden bar is filled.
While this theory couldn't be verified, it also couldn't be disproven. With the rise of gaming culture and the lack of progress by Breeder trainers in this area, most Summoners have come to accept this idea.
Based on this theory, they've even developed tricks to quickly increase experience points. One such method is Tier-Skipping Battles.
Summoners generally believe that Tier-Skipping Battles significantly boost the experience points of Summon Beasts. Furthermore, they think that when the experience bar is nearly full, there's a high chance of leveling up through a Tier-Skipping Battle.
However, Li Wu now finds this idea dubious.
His Mini Skeleton, with just a single swing, has knocked out over a dozen Three-Star Summon Beasts in half an hour. Logically, the experience bar should be full, and the Mini Skeleton should have leveled up, but it still shows no signs of upgrading.
"As expected, these Summoners know nothing about Summon Beasts. How can a Tier-Skipping Battle possibly lead to an upgrade? In the end, leveling up still depends on smashing phones!"
As Li Wu spoke, he prepared to take out his phone and summon the Mini Skeleton to show it who's boss.
Just then, a ringtone sounded from the left, indicating another prey had arrived.
Since there was prey, he might as well earn some points first.
After all, it was just a matter of a single swing.
However, this time, things were a bit different. Instead of a Mole, a grey, rock-like Great Rock Snake appeared.
Li Wu was taken aback, "What the hell? This isn't the area where Great Rock Snakes usually roam. How did one end up here?"
Li Wu quickly signaled to the Mini Skeleton not to engage the Great Rock Snake, as it would be a waste of effort.
It would be better to let it go! But just then, behind the Great Rock Snake, a Mole with lumps on its head, clearly having been beaten recently, emerged. The Mole jumped and squeaked by the Great Rock Snake, as if communicating something, and then pointed in Li Wu's direction.
"What's going on here? Is the Mole reporting to the Great Rock Snake? Is it seeking revenge with the help of the Great Rock Snake?
Is this world going crazy? Shouldn't snakes and mice be natural enemies?"
Well, in the natural world, snakes and mice are indeed natural enemies, but the Underground Cavern is different.
This Mystic Realm has been managed as a commercial trial ground for several decades, and the Summon Beasts here are all seasoned veterans of at least a few years.
They are, in essence, domesticated Summon Beasts.
Being fellow domesticated creatures, they naturally have fewer conflicts. Moreover, having endured beatings together fosters a closer relationship.
In such circumstances, it's not unusual for a beaten Mole to seek help from a Great Rock Snake for revenge.
Most importantly, the Mystic Realm manager noticed Li Wu's situation. In gaming terms, Li Wu's actions could be considered exploiting a bug to farm monsters, and the manager couldn't just stand by.
As Li Wu was still in a daze, the Great Rock Snake charged towards him. By this time, it was too late for Li Wu to escape, so he had no choice but to face the challenge.
"The Great Rock Snake is charging. It's all up to you, Mini Skeleton. Do you have the confidence?"
"!"
The little skull was confident, and the little skull was super capable!
The little skull, which had drawn so many moles, was now especially excited. As soon as it saw the Great Rock Snake approaching, it charged forward with its flail.
At the start, the electric baseball bat swung up in its hand, and the power of the charge was imbued onto the bat as it smashed into the Great Rock Snake's head.
If this blow had landed on a mole's head, it would have been knocked askew. But the situation was different when it hit the Great Rock Snake.
The snake was a rock-type summoned beast with extremely high defense, so this blow didn't cause it any pain or discomfort.
Instead, it seized the opportunity to tilt its head back, almost causing the little skull to lose its grip on the bat. At the same time, the snake's tail lashed out, striking the little skull's skeleton.
If this hit, the little skull would have been crippled even if it didn't fall apart.
"Left side, use Block and Leverage!"
Li Wu immediately issued the command, and the little skull instinctively followed Li Wu's order, using the electric bat to block the snake's tail while leaping up, allowing the force to knock it away.
Then, during the moment it was knocked away, the little skull turned around, and its skeletal frame stepped onto the wall.
"Now, use Charge and Power-up, and smash its waist!"
At this moment, Li Wu couldn't afford to let the little skull hold back anymore.
In the One Six One Nine Book Bar One Look Wu One Correct Version!
If they couldn't pass this stage, there was no point in pushing for the boss.
With Li Wu's command, the little skull flashed with electricity and instantly smashed into the Great Rock Snake's body. With the electric light, the bat landed a blow, causing the Great Rock Snake to convulse.
At the same time, Li Wu's bracelet rang with a notification.
But Li Wu didn't have time to pay attention to the notification because, at that moment, a cool energy surged onto his forehead, clearly indicating that the little skull had directly reached 3 stars in this battle.
On the little skull's side, after knocking down the Great Rock Snake, it turned its head towards Li Wu and gave a thumbs-up with a tilted head!
"Well done!"
In his excitement, Li Wu couldn't help but want to rush over and hug the little skull, giving it a big kiss.
The summoner's summary was indeed useful, at least saving him the cost of a new smartphone.
However, before Li Wu could get too happy, bells started ringing from all directions.
"Damn!"
Li Wu's expression changed as he realized the situation had gotten out of control, and it was very likely that the Realm Administrator had arrived to fix a bug.
Li Wu dared not stay any longer. He closed his eyes to listen carefully, and then suddenly opened them.
"There are no summoned beasts in the left fork, so we're heading left!"
It must be said that Li Wu had made thorough preparations for this ranking push. Not only had he set up an early warning, but the bells at each of the four forks were different, and the sounds were distinct.
Li Wu could tell with a single listen which fork had beasts and which didn't.
Not only that, but after rushing into the left fork, Li Wu didn't forget to throw a little ball towards the center.
This was also a tool Li Wu had prepared for this situation. The ball landed and immediately emitted thick smoke.
This was Li Wu's move, leaving the Realm Administrator momentarily stunned.
They had seen crazy moves before, but never one this crazy.
On Li Wu's side, after throwing the ball, he immediately led the little skull towards the gatekeeper boss of the third level.
"It's just as I expected. The summoned beasts have all rushed over here, making the third level relatively empty. This is our chance to break through. If we can find the third-level boss, defeat it, and enter the fourth level, skipping two levels will get us at least 200 points, and the top spot will be easily secured!"
