Chapter 92: I'll Help You!
Chapter 92: I'll Help You!
Thunder Swift should have easily overpowered Stone Helmet Spirit.
However, its old injuries were too severe, and the energy within its body was nearly depleted. Its once-prideful wings were damaged from a recent battle, making it unable to fly, let alone walk steadily.
Stone Helmet Spirit also had old injuries, but they were far less serious.
Most importantly, Stone Helmet Spirit could disappear and create distance, while Thunder Swift could only stay in place, using lightning for both attack and defense.
Surprisingly, the battle seemed to be tilting in Stone Helmet Spirit's favor.
Stone Helmet Spirit's round eyes glowed purple for what seemed like the umpteenth time, and the black ground opened up like an abyss, swallowing Thunder Swift.
The Night Spirit Feast skill was practically unavoidable for Thunder Swift at this point.
For the third time, Thunder Swift was consumed by the black ground.
"Stone Helmet~"
Whenever Thunder Swift was caught by the Night Spirit Feast, Stone Helmet Spirit would emit a strange, drug-like cry.
When Thunder Swift emerged from the ground again, its feathers were even more dull and lifeless, as if they had wilted.
"Thunder Swift."
Thunder Swift looked up at Stone Helmet Spirit with a mix of anger and frustration.
If it hadn't taken so much damage while breaking through the encirclement, Stone Helmet Spirit wouldn't be in a position to dominate it like this.
All those who promised it a glorious future were nothing but empty words.
Now, since it left the mountains, it had to fight every day. If it lost, it would be chased and beaten by a group.
It couldn't even enjoy a good meal or a peaceful night's sleep.
Its favorite wings were now bald, and its once-strong claws were broken.
Because it was the newcomer, it had to do all the dirty and exhausting work.
Here, Silver-tailed Seasnake could guard the fruit and sleep.
But Thunder Swift had to stay at the signal tower, emitting electromagnetic waves, with the instruction that it couldn't directly destroy anything, only interfere.
It couldn't use its skills freely, couldn't sleep when it wanted, and had to constantly release electromagnetic waves.
This unfair treatment was driving it insane!
Thunder Swift grew angrier the more it thought about it.
"Thunder Swift!"
It howled to the sky, gathering the remaining energy within its body.
Moments ago, the sun was high and the sky clear, but now the sky above turned dark.
Dark clouds gathered, and lightning, branching out in bizarre shapes, stretched in all directions, accompanied by deafening thunder.
In the next second, several bolts of lightning shot out like claws, striking around Stone Helmet Spirit, creating massive arcs of electricity in the air.
This spectacle quickly caught the attention of the police officers rushing to the scene.
"That's Zhou Xian's Thunder Swift", the middle-aged woman said with a heavy expression.
How could this happen? Why such a sudden commotion?
Who is Thunder Swift fighting?
Is there someone else on the mountain besides the child who reported it?
"Ah Feng, faster", Ye Ranran patted Wind Carver.
"Wind Carver", it called out, and immediately sped up.
Qiao Sang watched in fear and awe.
This was the first time he had been so close to lightning...
Qiao Sang seemed to have forgotten about the recent attack by Magnetmouse.
The lightning's range was vast, but within a two-meter radius around the man, not a single bolt struck.
Stone Helmet Spirit panicked and dodged frantically, but the wide attack range meant it was hit no matter where it moved.
Soon, a bolt of lightning struck Stone Helmet Spirit directly, and it fell to the ground instantly.
"Stone Helmet!!!"
Stone Helmet Spirit let out a piercing scream.
The lightning continued to fall from the sky, showing no signs of stopping.
Fangflare was captivated by the scene of the lightning ravaging the area.
It forgot to maintain the energy for Flame Fang, staring intently at the dazzling lightning.
Fangflare's eyes held a look of longing.
When could it become so powerful...
At that moment, the man on the ground was awakened by the loud noise. He frowned slightly and slowly opened his eyes.
Just then, Fangflare turned its head and met the man's gaze.
Both the man and the beast were taken aback.
In the next second, Fangflare’s eyes turned fierce, and it charged headfirst into the attack.
The man, still dazed, blacked out again before he could react.
Fangflare let out a sigh of relief.
It had almost gone wrong...
Qiao Sang didn’t notice the small incident with Fangflare.
She looked at the two familiars before her, both covered in wounds, and had a bold idea.
The lightning raged for nearly half a minute before finally subsiding, the dark clouds dispersing.
Thunder Swift, already low on energy, had been drained almost completely by the three Night Spirit attacks.
The storm of thunderclouds it unleashed with all its might had exhausted the last of its energy.
Thunder Swift’s body wobbled, barely staying upright by sheer willpower.
It looked at Stone Helmet Spirit, which lay on the ground, burned to a crisp, trying to crawl but failing to rise, and felt a surge of satisfaction.
You little thing, I’m still the big brother.
Even in this state, as long as I have enough energy, a single Signature Move would still finish you off instantly!
"Thunder Swift."
"Thunder Swift."
Thunder Swift taunted Stone Helmet Spirit with a smug call.
"Stone Helmet."
Stone Helmet Spirit glared at Thunder Swift with hatred, struggling to get up, but its limbs were powerless.
Its vision began to blur, and at that moment, it suddenly thought of its master.
Stone Helmet Spirit ignored Thunder Swift’s taunting and looked at its master, who was still unconscious.
It didn’t move, but its eyes glowed purple once more.
This time, the black ground started to spread from where it lay, slowly extending toward Qiao Sang.
Qiao Sang watched as the black ground passed Thunder Swift and continued toward her, a bad feeling settling in her stomach.
No more waiting!
Although she didn’t know the limits of a High-Class Beast Companion and a Champion-level familiar, their current state suggested they were at their last straw.
"Stone Helmet Spirit, I’ll help you!" Qiao Sang shouted.
Stone Helmet Spirit froze at her words, forgetting to continue its skills.
Help it?
What kind of help?
"Fangy, use Blazing Charge on Thunder Swift’s featherless wings!" Qiao Sang commanded.
Even if this attack didn’t take down Thunder Swift, it didn’t matter.
She could always summon Fangy back to the Beastmaster Codex.
This made Thunder Swift furious.
As Qiao Sang spoke, the range of the Night Spirit skill stopped just short of Thunder Swift’s feet.
"Thunder Swift!"
Thunder Swift ignored the ground, turning angrily to charge at Qiao Sang.
Featherless?
Who’s featherless?!
Who’s featherless now!
Thunder Swift tried to move, but its legs buckled, and it collapsed.
Fangflare’s eyes lit up at the command.
It had seen Thunder Swift’s lightning and knew this was a formidable opponent.
For its Beastmaster to call on it to attack, it must be trusted!
"Tooth!"
Fangflare’s body erupted in flames, and it eagerly channeled its energy. In the next instant, it shot forward like a red bolt of fire, colliding forcefully with the immobilized Thunder Swift.
"Thunder Swift!!"
Thunder Swift let out a painful cry, feeling utterly humiliated as it looked at Fangflare, which was about the size of its paw.
Its feathered wings struggled to move, trying to attack Fangflare.
"Fangy! Use Flame Fang to bite it!" Qiao Sang said at the right moment.
Fangflare opened its mouth, and its flame-enshrouded fangs clamped down on Thunder Swift’s wing, which was reaching for it but had no strength left.
"Thunder Swift!"
After this final cry, Thunder Swift finally succumbed to unconsciousness, its will unbroken.
When Wind Carver arrived, Ye Ranran and the others saw this exact scene.
