Chapter 362: Defeated Its Opponent
Bang!
The steel claw of the Steel-Clawed Lizard slammed into the ground, instantly creating a huge pit with a diameter of two meters. Its power was extremely powerful, like a huge hammer smashing into the ground.
“Roar!”
The scarlet compound eyes of Big Mouth rotated slightly, using its hook claw to slam heavily onto the ground, and then it made a provocative gesture towards the Steel-Clawed Lizard.
“Hiss!”
The Steel-Clawed Lizard, who was vicious and brutal by nature, was instantly enraged. It continued to charge towards Big Mouth, wanting to tear its disgusting body into pieces.
Big Mouth did not fight with the Steel-Clawed Lizard head-on. Instead, it used the advantage of being able to fly to continuously dodge the opponent’s attacks. In order to maintain the Steel-Clawed Lizard’s desire to attack, Big Mouth would occasionally turn around to feign attacks and continue to provoke the opponent.
“Observe and analyze? A smart choice!”
Lugh muttered in a low voice. He could tell at a glance that Big Mouth was trying to understand the opponent’s attack style, and at the same time, it was also trying to probe the opponent’s depth.
For an opponent who had no battle experience, observing and analyzing first was the wisest choice. As the saying goes, know yourself and know your enemy, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles.
After dodging the Steel-Clawed Lizard’s attacks a few times in a row, Big Mouth had already figured out the opponent’s attack style. The Steel-Clawed Lizard’s attacks were too open and unrestrained. There was no technique at all. It was purely relying on the advantage of its body to attack.
Bang!
Another sound of the Steel-Clawed Claw hitting the ground could be heard. After Big Mouth jumped back to dodge this attack, the wings on its back flapped, and it accelerated towards the Steel-Clawed Lizard that had just released its Steel-Clawed Claw and had used up all of its strength.
The Steel-Clawed Lizard’s Steel-Clawed Claw was indeed powerful and violent. If it really hit Big Mouth’s Thorn Beetle Armor, it might be able to cause damage to Big Mouth.
However, the opponent did not have a deep understanding of the origin technique. The tyrannical attack style of the Steel-Clawed Lizard caused its body to pause for a moment after the attack landed.
This pause was very short, but it was enough to kill Big Mouth!
“Physical Strengthening!”
Dong, dong, dong…
The sound of a strong heartbeat came from inside Big Mouth’s body. Its body instantly expanded by half a circle, and the feeling of muscles spread all over its body. The physical strengthening of the perfect mastery level directly strengthened Big Mouth’s body.
Big Mouth’s huge body was not inferior to that of the Steel-Clawed Lizard. It quickly approached the Steel-Clawed Lizard that was still in its undeveloped state. Suddenly, a few blood-red streams of light flashed past.
The blood-red light flashed and disappeared. Big Mouth had already landed on the back of the Steel-Clawed Lizard.
Puff…
Along with the sound of water vapor erupting, the surrounding ground was instantly dyed red.
Several blood lines flashed across the Steel-Clawed Lizard’s body. Its widened eyes were filled with shock, and its body began to spray blood everywhere.
The Steel-Clawed Lizard’s body swayed, and then it fell straight to the ground. The Steel-Clawed Lizard’s head was also separated from its body as it fell to the ground.
“First, Big Mouth observed and analyzed the opponent’s ability. Then, it discovered the Steel-Clawed Lizard’s temporary weakness after each use of its origin skill. Finally, it quickly killed it with lightning speed. It’s rare to see you appear calm and decisive. Well done, Big Mouth.”
Lugh avoided the ground where the Steel-Clawed Lizard’s blood had flowed. He walked to Big Mouth’s side and patted its head as he praised it.
Proper praise from a Beast Master could cultivate the source beast’s confidence, and also allow it to continue fighting bravely in the future. This was also a basic Beast Master skill that needed to be learned.
“Roar!”
Big Mouth seemed to be very happy after receiving the praise. Then, it started rolling on the ground without any form of image.
Seeing Big Mouth acting like a coquettish puppy without any form of image, Lugh’s face was bitter. He thought helplessly in his heart, ‘There’s no pressure from the dragon race at all. It looks like it’s a bad habit formed from the coddling of the flowers…’
‘If it’s a fox, it’s fine for a source beast like a cat to act coquettishly. After all, it’s nature. The problem is… This fellow is a noble dragon. Can it have some self-respect and self-respect from the dragon race?’
‘Moreover, Big Mouth’s act of acting coquettishly isn’t cute at all!’
Big Mouth’s ferocious appearance wasn’t suitable for such cute little actions. Big Mouth’s act of acting coquettishly was a little disgusting to Lugh…
After all, this was the first time the young Lugh had seen a source beast that was so cute that it was disgusting. However, in order to take care of Big Mouth’s weak heart, Lugh could only force a smile and cooperate with Big Mouth’s performance.
After that, Lugh chopped off the steel claw of the Steel-Clawed Lizard with his origin gold dagger and kept it in his spatial pouch. Then, he continued to search for source beasts to continue fighting. In these few days, he wanted Big Mouth to accumulate more battle experience with his own source beasts.
Although Big Mouth’s strength was very strong, Lugh still maintained his reverence towards the unknown domain.
He was not arrogant enough to intrude into the inner area of the Forest of Despair. He had been carefully moving around the outer area, not daring to be careless.
Creak, creak, creak…
In an empty space where there were relatively few trees, Big Mouth was busy devouring the meatballs of the insects. The sound of chewing kept coming out from his mouth.
The body of Big Mouth was covered with traces of battle. Two of its legs drooped weakly, and a few of the sharp thorns on its back were broken. Some parts of the insect armor were still dented.
However, with the help of the innate ability of the Wyvern, Big Mouth, who was recovering its source energy while eating, had some cracks on its body. The Thorn Beetle Armor was emitting some white smoke, and was healing at a slow speed. All the injuries were slowly recovering.
[Insect Race Self-Healing (Intermediate): Possesses an efficient self-healing ability. It is a widespread innate ability of the insect race. As long as the intermediate self-healing speed is not a broken head or leg injury, it can drive source energy to slowly recover the injury. At the advanced level, source energy can be used to perform high-efficiency self-healing for a short period of time. However, it is unable to regenerate limbs or organs.]
“What bad luck. I actually met a rank 2 White-Browed Rock Ape. This should be considered the strongest batch of source beasts in the outer area of the Forest of Despair.
“Fortunately, by relying on Big Mouth’s low-grade general-grade battle strength, Big Mouth was able to cross levels and fight against high-grade source beasts that were lower in quality than it.
“At the last moment, he successfully used the venomous insect claws to injure the other party, preventing the poison from chasing after him. Otherwise, both Big Mouth and I would have died at its hands.”
Lugh used his own cloth to stop the bleeding on his injured shoulder. The laceration on his shoulder was from the aftermath of the battle between Big Mouth and the White-Browed Rock Ape.
As he bandaged his wound, Lugh’s eyes were still filled with fear. After three days of training, Big Mouth had also broken through to level 10.
There were victories and defeats during this period. Even if it couldn’t defeat the White-Browed Rock Ape, it wouldn’t be a problem for it to retreat. After knowing that it had encountered a rank 2 White-Browed Rock Ape with Big Mouth wide open, both of them had almost lost their lives.
Fortunately, the White-Browed Rock Ape was a low-level soldier-grade source beast. Although its rank 2 combat strength was strong, it was still at the level of being able to directly kill Big Mouth.
Big Mouth relied on the Thorn Beetle Armor to defend against several of the opponent’s fatal attacks. However, it was still heavily injured by the White-Browed Rock Ape.
At the last critical moment, Big Mouth had finally injured the White-Browed Rock Ape. After dealing both poison and sinister poison damage to the opponent, Big Mouth’s heart was filled with fear. Only then was it able to forcefully escape from the enemy’s hands.
“Although we almost lost our lives in that battle, the training over the past few days had been quite effective.”
In recent days, Big Mouth had fought against the plant race, beast race, insect race, and opponents who had mastered various attributes. It had accumulated a lot of battle experience, and its battle methods had become more mature.
Lugh glanced at Big Mouth, who had been recovering its stamina after eating, and thought to himself.
Apart from the accumulated battle experience, Big Mouth’s level had also risen to level 10. Its origin skill, Bloody Claw, had also broken through to the perfection realm during the battle. Its attack range and explosive power had also increased significantly.
After resting on the spot for a period of time, Lugh’s stamina had almost recovered. After informing Big Mouth, who was in charge of keeping watch, he was ready to pack his things and prepare to return to the village.
This experiential learning was almost done. Tomorrow at noon, he would participate in the neighboring village competition that was jointly organized by several neighboring villages. He would go back and rest well to ensure that he would be fully prepared for tomorrow’s competition.
On the way back to the village, he did not encounter any powerful opponents like the White-Browed Rock Ape. Occasionally, some blind source beasts’ attacks were easily dealt with by Big Mouth.
After walking out of the Forest of Despair, Lugh finally returned to the Iron Cloud Village.
When Lugh returned home, he found that there were already many guests at home, and they had been waiting for him for a long time.
His name was Austin.
