Chapter 166 - 166: Fleeing? A Fearless Mutated Beast
Looking at the Blazing Golden Crow in front of him, Wang Xiao could not help but reveal a hesitant expression.
At this moment, the secret realm key was in his hand. As long as he crushed it, he could leave. However, facing such a powerful mutated beast that could only change the attributes of the secret realm, Wang Xiao really did not want to give up just like that.
After thinking for a moment, Wang Xiao connected to his territory and took out a purple gold mineral. He raised it above his head and shouted, “I don’t have that many Black Gold Ore for you. Take a look and see if this is okay.”
Although the purple gold mineral was also a rare resource, its value was only one-thousandth of the Black Gold Ore, so Wang Xiao could still reluctantly accept it.
As for the problem of the soldier pit, Wang Xiao did not consider it now. If the [Blazing Golden Crow] insisted on asking for the [Black Gold Ore], he would definitely leave without hesitation. At that time, he would not have to consider this problem.
Seeing the metal with a purple glow in Wang Xiao’s hand, the [Blazing Golden Crow] tilted its head in confusion, as if this was the first time it had seen such a thing.
Then, the [Blazing Golden Crow] bent down and gently touched the [purple gold mineral] with its slender sharp beak. After hesitating for a moment, it finally opened its mouth and took the [purple gold mineral] away. It raised its head and swallowed it.
Seeing that the [Blazing Golden Crow] had accepted the [purple gold mineral], Wang Xiao was immediately delighted. However, this time, after waiting for a
few minutes, he did not hear the notification requesting a contract.
Gradually, Wang Xiao realized something. He looked up at the Blazing Golden
Crow and probed, “You don’t like the ore just now?”
“Chirp!”
The Blazing Golden Crow let out a soft cry and shook its head. Wang Xiao’s expression instantly darkened. If you don’t like it, why did you still eat it? “You shameless mutated beast, are you taking me for a fool?!”
Wang Xiao shouted coldly. A deep gray vortex suddenly unfolded behind him!
Almost at the same time, a heat wave several times stronger than the Blazing Golden Crow spewed out, and the huge body of the [Volcano Melting Lizard] shockingly appeared!
The platinum level six [Volcanic Melting Lizard] was innately able to restrain gold-quality exotic beasts. Almost as soon as it appeared, the [Blazing Golden Crow] immediately flapped its wings and flew into the sky!
However, Wang Xiao had lost two ores for nothing. How could he let the Blazing Golden Crow escape so easily? He raised his hand and pointed, shouting sternly, “Pull it down!”
BOOM!
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire body of the [Volcano Melting Lizard] instantly exploded, and a hundred-meter-tall fire wall soared into the sky!
The claws of the Blazing Golden Crow were not as illusory as ordinary flames. Instead, they seemed to have substance and firmly held the other party back!
The [Blazing Golden Crow] sensed that something was wrong and immediately flapped its wings crazily to escape. Almost all the white sand within a thousand meters was stirred by it. However, not only did the flame not shake off, it even spiraled up along its claws!
Soon, the flustered [Blazing Golden Crow] exhausted its stamina. The [Volcano Melting Lizard] spat out two flames from its nose in disdain and shook its head to forcefully pull the other party down!
BANG!
With a loud bang, the Blazing Golden Crow smashed heavily onto the ground, raising sand waves more than ten meters high!
Immediately after, a bolt of lightning tore through the sand curtain and landed on the head of the Blazing Golden Crow, ruthlessly pressing it back!
Sensing the cold air that seeped into the bone marrow of its sharp claws, the [Blazing Golden Crow] instantly did not dare to move.
Wang Xiao rode on the back of the Ice Thunder Horn Wolf and saw the obedient appearance of the Blazing Golden Crow. He suddenly felt that something was wrong.
Although the [Volcanic Melting Lizard] and the [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf] were both platinum quality, the [Blazing Golden Crow] was at the peak of gold level three and was probably only half a step away from platinum quality.
Moreover, the [Blazing Golden Crow] was huge. Any flap of its wings could set off a sandstorm that covered the sky. Even if it was defeated, it should not have been defeated so quickly, right?
“[Blazing Golden Crow requests to sign a contract with you]
[Your soldier slot is already full. You can’t sign a new contract beast. You have automatically rejected it!]
The notification suddenly sounded. Wang Xiao returned to his senses and looked at the [Blazing Golden Crow]. He did not know if it was his imagination, but he seemed to see pleading in the eyes of the [Blazing Golden Crow].
Just as Wang Xiao was wondering what was going on, a golden light suddenly flashed not far away, and Zhou Xiruo’s figure appeared in the desert.
Seeing the [Blazing Golden Crow] pressed to the ground, Zhou Xiruo’s mouth was shocked into an “O” shape. She stood rooted to the ground as if she could not believe what she had seen.
“Zhou Xiruo? Little Zhou? Lord Zhou!”
Wang Xiao shouted a few times. When Zhou Xiruo came back to her senses, she asked, “Didn’t I tell you to leave first? Why are you back again?”
“I waited outside for a long time but you didn’t come out. I was afraid that you would encounter trouble, so I came in to take a look.”
“Did you do this alone? How powerful are you now?”
“I did it alone, but I don’t think it was because I was powerful.”
Wang Xiao smiled with a strange expression and briefly explained the ins and outs again. During this period, the Blazing Golden Crow had been obedient and did not even move a feather.
When she heard that the [Volcano Melting Lizard] and the [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf] had subdued the [Blazing Golden Crow] in a few moves, Zhou Xiruo also revealed an incredulous expression.
Even if the strength and level of the [Volcanic Melting Lizard] were overwhelming, wasn’t it too easy to defeat the enemy in one move?
After a moment of silence, Zhou Xiruo sized up the Blazing Golden Crow and smiled helplessly. “If it wasn’t a mutated beast, I really think it took the initiative to surrender because it was afraid of death.”
“Afraid of death?”
When Wang Xiao heard this, his heart suddenly skipped a beat. Although mutated beasts usually did not have such thoughts, it was the instinct of all creatures to seek benefits and avoid harm.
Moreover, the world was huge and there were all kinds of strange things. Wang Xiao had even encountered a rebellious youth like the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon]. What else was impossible?
Thinking of this, Wang Xiao raised his leg and jumped off the [Ice Horn Wolf] , landing on the cheek of the [Blazing Golden Crow]. Those terrified and begging eyes were not far from his feet.
“Don’t move, or I’ll kill you.”
Wang Xiao warned first. Then, he pulled a long face and asked coldly, “I know you can understand me. If I’m right, blink.”
The Blazing Golden Crow blinked.
Wang Xiao asked again, “You didn’t really try to attack just now. Do you not want to fight me?”
The Blazing Golden Crow blinked.
Wang Xiao asked again, “Did you escape because you were afraid of death?” The Blazing Golden Crow blinked.
Wang Xiao pondered for a moment. “You’re collecting so many minerals… does it have something to do with your breakthrough?”
The Blazing Golden Crow blinked crazily.
Looking at the eyelids of the [Blazing Golden Crow] flapping crazily, Wang Xiao could not help but curse himself for being stupid.. He should have thought of such a simple matter long ago!
