Although the big wolf had already moved ten meters away into a dangerous distance, everyone couldn't help but turn back to look at the source of the sound.
They saw the scarecrow standing there upright, with its arms crossed, muttering incantations.
This was an instruction from Li Pu.
The fat wolf walked leisurely, and its big belly seemed to indicate low agility.
In his eyes, it was completely a good target.
Mister Wolf, sorry.
You chose the wrong target for show.
"Can you..."
Hang Xing looked at Li Pu, wanting to ask if he could make the scarecrow quieter.
Unfortunately, his words were interrupted again.
[Eat the groove ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!]
Boom!
Under everyone's gaze, a blue beam of light spewed out of the scarecrow's mouth.
Flames wrapped around the edges of the beam, and it moved quickly.
Shooting straight, it extended through their formation towards the big wolf.
[Small Fireball]: Release a controllable Nether Blue Flame for attack
Li Pu and the scarecrow found through practice that the term "controllable" was broader than imagined.
It can even control the shape of the Nether Blue Flame.
Turn "one cluster" into "one beam."
Compared to the small blue flame bird, it lost control over direction and trajectory, but its speed was faster.
As Li Pu guessed, this fat wolf wasn't a beast good at speed.
The Small Fireball (?) hit perfectly, instantly engulfing it in Nether Blue Flame.
[Awooooo!]
The flame indeed had no burning sensation, but its scorch on the body was unusually painful.
The big wolf, unable to bear it, fell to the ground and rolled continuously, unable to extinguish the fire.
This situation stunned the other few people present.
Chang Shilian: "Um... did I just see things wrong? Did that scarecrow spit... a laser from its mouth?"
Hang Xing: "What kind of robot-like summon is this? Is it actually just disguised with grass outside?"
Chang Shoushang: "The attack mode of your scarecrow looks so insane."
Much like the Summoners, the Porcupine Mouse and other summons were frozen in place.
They didn't expect this character, thought to be a support, to spew so fiercely when it opened its mouth!
[Umph!] xN
Seeing their leader in trouble, the Cloud Wolves finally lost their momentum and fled.
Rustle, rustle, rustle, rustle!
But the reappearing vines tied them all in place.
In Li Pu's eyes, a Cloud Wolf was equivalent to 1/100 of a Climbing Wall Vine leaf, no way they'd be allowed to escape.
"Well done."
Jiang Guiju was the first to come to his senses and immediately gave an order to the Porcupine Mouse.
[Stab, stab, stab, stab!]
The Porcupine Mouse shrieked and hurriedly shot out the gold spines.
[Umph~~] xN
All the Cloud Wolves were pierced by the enlarged gold spines.
While attacking the big wolf simultaneously, it didn't hit due to the wolf's erratic rolling on the ground.
"Stop spacing out, hurry up and besiege the big wolf!"
Jiang Guiju's shout finally snapped everyone out of it.
Besides Chang Shilian, who deployed the Black Silk Beast to watch other Cloud Wolves to prevent escape, the rest of the summons charged and attacked the big wolf.
The saying goes, two fists can't resist multiple hands; and after waiting for the Nether Blue Flame to extinguish, the big wolf, nearly burned into a bald wolf, fell dead in both body and mind quickly.
After the big wolf perished, the surviving Cloud Wolves were quickly wiped out.
Li Pu didn't make a move the entire time but spectated.
Now as the battle ends, everyone started cleaning up the battlefield while he focused on harvesting the Cloud Wolves' thick, tough tails.
These tails were tokens for the Climbing Wall Vine commission; with each tail, it's like he's clearing one Cloud Wolf.
During a visit to the trading station, he specifically inquired about this matter.
The price of Cloud Wolves isn't actually high.
A whole Cloud Wolf corpse prices between 80~100 Crystal Coins at the trading station.
This price is comparable to Night Luminous Spiders.
As a reference, a Mushroom-eating Lizard of the same D-grade can sell for 400~800.
The reason is simple, as there are too many Cloud Wolves in East Wilderness Ridge.
If brought to places without a source of Cloud Wolves, they could sell at Mushroom-eating Lizard's price.
After discovering the price, Li Pu had an idea.
It was to bulk purchase Cloud Wolf tails from students and exchange them for leaves with the Climbing Wall Vine.
Because the tails' purchase and sale price at the trading station is about 20~30 Crystal Coins each.
If he wants to buy in bulk, he'd have to offer higher than the trading station price.
Let's say 35 Crystal Coins each, and 100 tails would be 3500 Crystal Coins.
The Climbing Wall Vine leaf can sell for 4000 Crystal Coins.
He'd earn a 500 Crystal Coin profit in between.
But ultimately, this was just a thought and wasn't acted on.
Setting aside possible detail difficulties in actual operation, Li Pu didn't do it mainly because of the agreement with the Climbing Wall Vine.
The essence of the agreement wasn't to exchange tails for leaves.
Rather, it required cleaning up enough Cloud Wolves personally to exchange for leaves.
If bulk purchasing increased everyone's motivation to clear Cloud Wolves, resulting in indirectly completing the Climbing Wall Vine's commission, it's understandable.
But the problem is Li Pu doesn't believe his mere increase of 5 Crystal Coins in tail price is sufficient to boost enthusiasm.
Thus, Li Pu preferred to honor his promise.
Anyway, he's supposed to roam East Wilderness Ridge recently, not worried about gathering enough tails.
As for related goods from Cloud Wolves, it's their eyelashes.
A fur-type skill that's useless to both the scarecrow and Bu Bu, suitable only for Sacrifice.
Though Sacrificing a D-grade skill should provide considerable energy.
Once obtaining the full quantity of related goods, Li Pu quietly used it on the scarecrow.
Scarecrow: Level 14→17, Listen to the Wind
Strength: 103→112, F
Indeed, it gained 3 levels, moving closer to the next reincarnation.
Among so many Cloud Wolf corpses, Li Pu collected three.
Senior students each collected several too; the rest are planned to be kept in Chang Shoushang's space to be divided later.
But Chang Shoushang's storage space isn't limitless; prior to storing these Cloud Wolves, he had to dump all the Bipedal Catfish.
Even so, it still wasn't enough to load all the Cloud Wolves, they could only collect relatively valuable parts.
After completing all this, Li Pu waited for the seniors to speak and set off again.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Guiju pulled out a fist-sized light orb at this moment.
"Your luck, kid, is really good."
She said this laughingly to Li Pu.
