"What's wrong, Charles? Can't we just deal with this big ferocious beast first?" Ruby asked quietly, a bit puzzled.In her opinion, since there were two Giant Pangolins in front and another one coming from behind, they should take care of the one in the back first to avoid being caught in a pincer attack, which could be dangerous.
"Teacher Ruby, this isn't just any ordinary Giant Pangolin. It's the Giant Pangolin Leader, and it can summon other ferocious beasts." Charles explained.
Ruby's eyes widened in surprise as she exclaimed, "How do you know that? It looks only slightly bigger than a regular Giant Pangolin, there's nothing special about it!"
Even the guide from the Golden Mountain Range, Mountain Rabbit, voiced his skepticism quietly, saying, "I think I've heard that there is indeed a leader among the Giant Pangolins, but since they usually live inside the mountains, few people have actually seen one."
"I saw relevant information in the library, so I can recognize it." Charles casually offered as an excuse. He couldn't very well say it was because he could see hidden information prompts, could he?
After hearing this, Ruby nodded and didn't suspect a thing. In her mind, it was only natural for a genius like Charles to know things that ordinary people did not.
"This is getting a bit tricky. If that Giant Pangolin Leader calls for many companions, we could be in trouble." Ruby said, furrowing her brow as she thought about how to handle the situation.
Before she could come up with a plan, Charles immediately spoke up, "Don't worry, Teacher. I have a way."
Upon hearing this, both Mountain Rabbit and Ruby turned to look at Charles. He patted the mousie on his shoulder and slowly said:
"Mousie, I need you to use your darkness cloak to sneak around behind the Giant Pangolin Leader and project a more agile ferocious beast to lead it away."
The mousie blinked its eyes and nodded its small head confidently, replying, "Don't worry, Master. This task is in good hands!"
In the next moment,
The mousie leaped off Charles's shoulder and disappeared into the darkness of the cave mid-air.
Ruby and Mountain Rabbit held their breath, carefully observing the situation that unfolded.
The massive Giant Pangolin Leader was completely unaware that in the shadows of darkness, the mousie was moving swiftly.
Soon, a level thirty mysterious silver spirit cat was projected by the mousie, creating noise at the entrance of the cave.
The Giant Pangolin Leader immediately stopped advancing toward Charles and slowly turned its body in the cave, changing direction and heading straight for the cave entrance without hesitation.
"That really worked! Charles, you're incredibly smart." Ruby couldn't help but exclaim.
The speed of a genius's thinking is far quicker than that of an ordinary person. In just a few seconds, Charles had come up with the best solution. If it were her alone, she might have ended up relying on brute force and forced combat.
Even Mountain Rabbit, who had spent a long time in the Golden Mountain Range and was known as the best guide, couldn't help but give Charles a silent thumbs-up.
In his view, Charles was truly the clever one. He not only noticed Alyssa and the others' unusual behavior from the start, but also devised a risky yet effective plan when surrounded by the Bloodthirsty Alloy Ants. Now, he was managing to avoid the risk of combat as well.
It was the first time Mountain Rabbit had encountered someone like him.
"We should act quickly, the mousie won't be able to maintain that for long. Once the Giant Pangolin Leader loses interest in chasing its prey, it will come back soon." Charles maintained his calm, analyzing the situation rationally.
Ruby exchanged a glance with him and nodded, directly summoning her mystical beast to use Beast Mastery.
Charles didn't delay either, relying on Mia, Max, and the forcibly awakened Little Gold, utilizing the three mystical beasts for Beast Mastery as well.
"By the way, Teacher Ruby, you can gather earth energy to create a wall of earth to temporarily divide the cave, preventing the sounds of our battle from attracting the Giant Pangolin Leader." Charles said quickly.
Ruby's eyes lit up, and she immediately set to work. In the blink of an eye, a thick wall of earth appeared, splitting the cave into two sections.
As if sensing something unusual, the Giant Pangolins, which had been sleeping, drowsily opened their eyes.
Before the two Giant Pangolins could fully wake up, they saw two figures rushing towards them like lightning!
"Bang!" "Bang!"
Two dull thuds echoed as Charles and Ruby's fists struck the Giant Pangolins' heads with force.
As a level seven Beast Master, Ruby unleashed her full power, making her incredibly strong.
With the boost from Beast Mastery, a simple punch caused the newly awakened Giant Pangolin to close its eyes once more and fall into a coma.
Charles, on the other hand, was facing a bit of trouble. The 55-level Giant Pangolin had exceptionally hard armor, and the fat and muscle beneath it continuously weakened Charles's strength.
After delivering a punch, Charles felt his fist go numb, the damage he inflicted was nowhere near enough to knock the Giant Pangolin unconscious.
Without any hesitation, Charles directly used his self-created combat technique, Divine Domain!
In the next moment,
Every scene in the cave appeared within Charles's perception, including the worms wriggling beneath the dark, damp soil, which he could sense clearly!
"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"
Three dull thuds rang out in quick succession, if one wasn't paying close attention, they might think it was just one impact.
The struggling Giant Pangolin instantly lost its ability to resist, closed its eyes, and fell into a coma.
"Not bad! I thought I'd have to step in to help you." Ruby said with a smile, her rosy lips moving.
Charles shook his slightly numb right hand, the defense of this Giant Pangolin was truly remarkable. seaʀᴄh thё novёlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
It was the strongest defense he had encountered so far.
If he hadn't used his self-created combat technique Divine Domain and the black gold knife glow, he probably wouldn't have been able to resolve it in a short time.
Mountain Rabbit peeked out from behind, watching the scene before him, swallowing hard.
Had those two Giant Pangolins already been dealt with in just a few breaths?
Watching Charles rummage through the pockets in the belly of the Giant Pangolins, Mountain Rabbit finally dared to approach slowly.
"My goodness, Mr. Charles, you guys are incredibly strong! If we could drag these two ferocious beast corpses out to sell, they'd be worth quite a bit of gold!" Mountain Rabbit said, though his footsteps had stopped.
As a guide in the Golden Mountain Range, the worst thing one could do was be greedy.
"It's too much trouble, I'm just here to find the Golden Stone." Charles replied, continuing to search rapidly.
He kept glancing at the information prompts. The first Giant Pangolin's belly pocket was empty!
The second Giant Pangolin's belly pocket was also empty!
"Is my luck really that bad today? They're just ordinary ores." Charles frowned.
At that moment, not far behind the two fallen Giant Pangolins, a plump figure appeared, wobbling slightly.
It was a young Giant Pangolin, looking only a bit over a meter tall and wide, like a little ball.
Charles initially glanced over out of curiosity, but unexpectedly spotted a fist-sized ore in the young Giant Pangolin's grasp.
Golden Stone [purple-quality]: A special ore found in the Golden Mountain Range, containing a large amount of gold energy, which can help mystical beasts level up and accelerate their growth.
"That's it! I can't believe it's here!" Charles immediately stood up and cautiously approached the young Giant Pangolin.
Sensing a dangerous presence, the round little one tried to turn and flee!
Charles quickly activated Moon Riding Wind, moving with ghostly speed to appear behind the young Giant Pangolin, reaching out to grab it.
The young Giant Pangolin was extremely frightened, struggling wildly, causing the Golden Stone to fall from its grasp onto the ground.
Charles bent down, picked up the fallen Golden Stone, and stored it in his storage space.
Then, he took some metal materials from Alyssa's Black Jade Ring and placed them in front of the young Giant Pangolin, saying,
"You haven't done anything to provoke me, so it wouldn't be right to take your things. These metals are much better than what your parents have in their pockets, so consider it compensation."
Seeing this, Ruby immediately smiled and said, "Charles, you're quite kind. If it were any other Beast Master, they might not let this young one go."
Charles didn't pay much attention, he just thought the round little creature looked quite pitiful, not crying or shouting in such a situation, but merely trembling with fear.
At that moment, a voice in his mind suddenly alerted him: "Master, that big guy is coming back!"
Charles quickly shouted to Ruby and Mountain Rabbit, "Hurry up! The Giant Pangolin Leader is about to return, and we need to leave immediately!"
Without any delay, Ruby broke the freshly formed earthen wall, and the three of them quickly ran toward the cave's exit.
Just a few steps later, a massive roar echoed from outside the cave!
