“Rainbow, you lead the way up front.” David Jones looked at the lush forest not far away, his brows slightly furrowed.
Unlike a Class IV beast, if a fifth-order Leader beast had the intent to kill, it could instantly wipe out their pets. He wouldn’t dare to let Yann York’s
Iron-Spring Python continue to take the lead. The level of danger was too high.
Thinking of this, David Jones cast an indiscernible glance at the azure sky.
“What a keen perception! Indeed, without a specially made high-level arcane implement, it is extremely difficult to hide one’s presence from the Penetrating Eye.”
A bitter smile appeared on Drill Instructor Law Webster’s face, as he rode a crane-like pet beast with a bright red crown on its head, long legs, and a powerful build.
Because Mountain Everlasting was too dangerous, according to the legion’s safety assessment for newbie squads, every newbie squad had an instructor or a Master Trainer protecting them to prevent unexpected accidents.
And he was the bodyguard responsible for David Jones’s squad’s safety.
“Watch me take it down!” Rainbow excitedly charged ahead at David Jones’s command.
“Don’t be careless, the forest is its home turf!”
After warning Rainbow through thought, David Jones turned his head and reminded the team members, “There is a fifth-order Azure Dryad in the forest ahead. Be careful of attacks coming from the ground.”
“Azure Dryad?” Daphne York’s interest was immediately piqued.
Azure Dryads are plant type beasts with strong territorial awareness, often attacking all creatures that invade their territory.
However, the Azure Heart nurtured within the bodies of Azure Dryads is an excellent elixir that can be used to make a class V S tier elixir, the Longevity Elixir.
It’s worth noting, this rare Longevity Elixir can extend the life of a Trainer by three years, and hence, the value represented by the Azure Heart is immense.
“Hmm?”(Attack now?) Rainbow turned its head to look at its trainer.
“No, let me gather some information first.”
As soon as he finished speaking, David Jones made a motion on the Star Ring, and Daphne appeared in front of him, surrounded by a dazzling white Rune Circle.
“What’s this pet? It looks so strong!”
Everyone looked astonished when they saw the pet beside the team leader, its eyes like red glare, its body radiating a mysterious silver light.
David Jones did not pay attention to his teammates’ surprise seeing Daphne nearby to protect him.
He looked at the distant forest, which had completely turned into a lush green ocean of plants, a flash of gold flickering in his calm eyes.
“Pet Name”: Azure Dryad
“Pet Type”: Wood, Water, and Earth
“Species Level”: Commander
“Strength Level”: Class V lower-level
“Species Skill”: Azure Heart, Revival Droplets, Iron Vine, Vine Territory, Endless Ground Split
“Class V lower-level, it seems Rainbow and Daphne will have to work together to be safe.”
David Jones scanned the forest floor with his Penetrating Eye and finally located the hiding place of the Azure Dryad’s roots, a mass of crystalline giant roots intertwined and glowing. He muttered, “Frozen Wasteland+Frost Starfall.”
David Jones conveyed his thoughts.
With large-area skills like Frost Starfall and Ice Tornado, which pose a high threat to Wood-type pets, he, of course, wouldn’t foolishly enter the forest to fight wood-type beasts who have a home-field advantage.
He then turned his gaze to the eager Daphne on his right.
“Prepare the most potent Destiny Judgement.”
At his words, his two pets immediately let out an excited soft hum.
Soon afterwards, Rainbow was the first to soar high into the sky, her slender form radiating an awe-inspiring frostiness.
In just a few seconds, an overwhelming amount of Ice-type Arcane Force gathered in the sky, ultimately forming into a frost star with a diameter of a hundred meters under the astonished gazes of everyone.
For a moment, the Azure Sky was adorned by another stellar body beside the Big Sun, emitting a chill that seemed to freeze space itself.
Such a drastic disturbance couldn’t escape the perception of the Azure Dryad.
The next second, an intense rumbling sound was heard. There was a strong sensation of the earth trembling, and numerous bright green vines shot into the sky, heading towards the frost star.
Unquestionably, this was the Azure Dryad’s counterattack upon sensing danger.
However, in Rainbow’s view, all these helpless counterattacks seemed too late.
Rainbow’s majestic eyes then burst with a fierce blue light. The frigid giant Frost Star, as though receiving significant augmentation, roared down into the forest with an unstoppable momentum.
“Hmm!” A deafening blast accompanied by a mournful scream hit their ears.
The originally verdant forest showed large spider web-like cracks in an instant under the impact of the Frost Star.
The spot where the Azure Dryad used to be had become an enormous ice crystal pit, hundreds of meters in both length and width. The morning sunlight refracted from it, radiating a chillingly cold glow.
“Is this the true strength of the commander? Defeating a Fifth-order Leader Beast as easily as drinking water!”
The team members looked up at the suddenly appeared ice crystal pit, their faces filled with admiration and shock.
They honestly hadn’t seen a more shocking scene of destruction, not because they lacked exposure, but because it seemed too exaggerated that such a powerful skill was demonstrated by the pet of a newcomer!
At that moment, David Jones had confirmed through his Penetrating Eye skill that the Azure Dryad had already fainted without showing up. He had no choice but to tell Daphne: “Cancel Destiny Judgement.”
He initially thought it would take the combined strength of Rainbow and Daphne to defeat a fifth-order leader beast due to its extreme power. But he hadn’t expected that he had overestimated the strength of the fifth-order leader beast and underestimated the terrifying strength of Rainbow, which was enough to cross two layers of battle!
“Mi.”
Upon hearing David Jones’ command, the evanescent Destiny Ring suddenly disappeared from behind Daphne.
“Such a pity, the opponent was too weak!” Daphne said as she looked at the ice pit in front, shaking her head in dissatisfaction.
“Picking the Azure Heart is quite complex. Do you know how to harvest it, Commander?”
Seeing the perplexed commander facing the felled Azure Dryad, Yolanda York couldn’t help but ask.
“You know?” David Jones was astonished.
He did not know what to do with the Azure Dryad precisely because he knew how precious the Azure Heart was.
“I’ve learned a bit. If you trust me, Commander, I can help you harvest the Azure Heart,” Yolanda York volunteered.
Though the Azure Heart was not considered a high-level pet resource, it was a rare resource with longevity properties, and it was rare to see even in auction houses.
“Then I’ll have to trouble you,” David Jones replied, nodding in delight.
Only an hour into the exam, their team had completed the experiential task. This meant that they had already secured the entrance qualification to the Origin Emperor Relic..
