With Wang Nuonuo's reminder, everyone was on high alert.

I have to admit, having a scouting-type summoned beast is pretty good.

Li Pu felt a bit envious.

Since he was on a solo mission, a summoned beast like this was essential.

He wondered when his third contract would occur; it would be great to find a summoned beast like Leggy Yoyo or Saildog.

Although their focus was different, both excelled in mobility and could warn ahead of time.

[Mushroom Charge!]xN

Soon, a flurry of mushroom figures, accompanied by flying sand, rushed from afar.

Looking around, there were about four or five.

"Prepare for battle, everyone."

"Let's deal with this batch early, to prevent them from merging into a larger group with the reinforcing Shashago mushrooms."

Wang Nuonuo waved her hand, sending her Sturdy Steel charging forward first.

[Identify, Enemy, Obliterate!]

Sturdy Steel's bulbous eyes flashed rapidly, while its tracks spun furiously.

Rumbling...

But its speed wasn't very fast, and it had only surged a few meters when it was overtaken by Li Qiangqiang, who was riding a rock-armored horse.

She tightened her legs around the horse's belly and aimed at the lead shashago mushroom, pulling the trigger in her hand.

[Chirp, chirp!]

The mechanical gun in her hand rang out, shooting a laser as thick as a finger.

[Mushroom Pain!]

The laser struck the shashago mushroom, instantly burning a charred black hole.

Li Qiangqiang was following a guerrilla strategy, so the rock-armored horse wasn't heading directly toward the shashago mushrooms.

Instead, it veered from afar while luring away the mushroom she had just shot.

[Hiss!]

As for Liu Tietie's giant anaconda, it chose to confront the enemy head-on.

Its forked tongue flicked out, slithering rapidly forward.

It was clad in a well-fitted mechanical armor.

This was the mechanical arm Liu Tietie had equipped earlier.

The left-arm-style armor was just a hobby of hers.

In a real fight, it's better to let the mechanical beast assist the anaconda.

As a summoner without much physical prowess, there's no need to risk oneself.

"Sisters, don't hold back, I'm here for you!"

Wang Nuonuo stood at the back, commanding Sturdy Steel to block the shashago mushrooms.

Her summoner talent was less about summoning beasts and more about quickly replenishing the spiritual power of other summoners, letting them use their skills more quickly, frequently, and intensely.

"Been waiting for your signal! Get going!"

From the distance, Li Qiangqiang responded boldly, then controlled her rock-armored horse to charge at another shashago mushroom.

[Mushroom Charge!]

Seeing the enemy approach, the shashago mushroom opened its mouth to shoot a sand arrow.

However, the nimble rock-armored horse sidestepped it.

"Roasted mushroom's on the menu!"

When only 5 meters away, Li Qiangqiang pointed towards the shashago mushroom.

[Mushroom Heat!]

Instantly, a torrent of flames engulfed it.

Summoner Skill, [Ignite].

This particular [Ignite] was unusually powerful.

Because Li Qiangqiang's summoner talent was a common amplification ability, enhancing her fire-related summoner skills.

[Power Punch!]

[Hiss!]

On the battlefield, Sturdy Steel and the armored anaconda fought the remaining shashago mushrooms.

Liu Tietie positioned herself near them, frequently casting streams of green light.

Initially, Sturdy Steel and the mechanical armor of the anaconda would get dented or damaged by the punches, headbutts, or sand arrows of the shashago mushrooms.

But under the nourishment of the green light, they quickly recovered, not impacting the battle at all.

This was her summoner talent, allowing rapid repair treatment for mechanical summoned beasts.

It was clear that the three sisters had excellent coordination.

From a team composition perspective, it was quite reasonable.

The warrior-mage-healer triangle structure is the most stable kind.

"How about it? My team is reliable, right?"

Wang Nuonuo stood at the back of the line, looking towards Li Pu beside her.

"Impressive."

Li Pu nodded.

This kind of team coordination was something the Strawman and Bubu couldn't pull off at the moment.

It'd be a relief if Bubu didn't kick the Strawman to death.

One minute later, the shashago mushroom frequently attacked by Li Qiangqiang finally fell.

[Mushroom Falls!]

Thud!

Though it lay on the ground without exploding, it was clearly on the verge of death.

Li Qiangqiang had held back intentionally, as this approach was the best way to prevent the shashago from exploding.

Directly killing it would result in a yellow sand mushroom cloud.

Letting it slowly succumb ensures no sand explosion.

"Keep it up, sisters, four more to go!"

Riding the rock-armored horse rapidly toward the center of the battle, she shouted while using her laser to pull another one away for further distraction.

This was their usual tactic, every move was calculated.

"Oh no."

However, Wang Nuonuo's previously relaxed expression suddenly darkened.

"What's wrong, senior?"

Li Pu, seeing her expression change, could already guess.

"Yoyo just sent back a message, there are several shashago mushrooms quickly approaching over there as well."

Sure enough, Wang Nuonuo pointed to another direction.

"It's your time to shine."

"Could you hold them off or lead them away first?"

"As soon as we're done here, we'll come to back you up right away."

If the shashago mushrooms gathered over there, it would exceed the team's limit for engagement.

If it was just the three of them, this might have been the cue to retreat wisely.

But things were different now, as they had an additional member, Li Pu.

Having worked together before, Wang Nuonuo knew of Li Pu's capabilities.

Based on how he performed in the Little Yama Realm, distracting the incoming mushrooms shouldn't be an issue.

"Alright."

Li Pu did not disappoint his senior, nodding before heading over with the Strawman and Bubu.

"Can he do it?"

Seeing Li Pu's departing figure, Liu Tietie, who had returned to replenish her spiritual power, voiced her concern.

"He'll be fine, delaying them is something he's capable of."

Wang Nuonuo said while restoring her friend's energy, keeping her eyes frequently darting in his direction.

But that limping guy was fast and soon disappeared from their view.

Three minutes later.

[Mushroom I Fall~]

Another shashago mushroom finally fell under the combined assault of Sturdy Steel and the armored anaconda.

"Good, good."

Wang Nuonuo wiped the sweat from her forehead, glancing toward Li Qiangqiang's side.

Her target was nearly finished as well.

Just then, a sudden explosion reverberated from afar.

Boom! x6

Six mushroom clouds rose almost simultaneously.
