Chapter 316 - 310: Glaze Horned Dragon
“Do you all want to go back to the base and submit the mission first, or earn some more credits in the Mountain Everlasting range?”
After putting the translucent Azure Heart into his Star Ring, David Jones looked around and asked his teammates.
There aren’t many opportunities to earn lots of credits. Why don’t we go deeper into the Mountain Everlasting range?” Sylvia Creek suggested.
With our captain here, I think there won’t be a problem.”
Everyone agreed one after another.
Seeing this, David’s face also showed an excited smile.
As the captain, he had a double credit bonus. If they continued to stay in the Mountain Everlasting range to hunt the beasts, he might earn a lot of credits in one day.
Just as David and his teammates were eager to have a try, Instructor Law Webster fell silent as he looked at the Azure Dryad, whose resources had been completely stripped away.
“It seems not only I, but also Commander Easton, has underestimated this monster David! A Class V lower-level Commander beast is not enough for David to use Beastmaster Cooperation to fight against, let alone give him a sense of crisis!”
After thinking about it, Law Webster looked at the far-off area in the opposite direction of David’s team’s advance, where a cold pool that never saw sunlight was located.
“In the middle layer of the Mountain Everlasting range, there is a Glaze Dragon with the strength of a Class V lower-level. Perhaps it can bring a life-and-death crisis to David, but trying to lure that greedy Glaze Dragon requires quite a lot of ice resources.”
As he thought about this, a painful expression appeared on Instructor Law Webster’s face.
Unlike other wild pet beasts, the Glaze Dragon in the Mountain Everlasting range is a dragon species born from Commander Easton’s ace pet beasts, with the species level reaching the Overlord level and a very deep background.’ Even as a King Trainer, he could only allure the lower-level Class V Horned Dragon with benefits, not to mention forcing it would be absolutely impossible. After all, Law Webster didn’t want an Overlord-class True Dragon, the Jade Dragon, to come knocking on his door!
“Seems like I’m going to offend a talented freshman with immense potential again!” Law Webster bitterly smiled, then tapped the communicator on his wrist.
Who would have thought that facing death would be the ultimate goal of this freshman training assessment?
Research by the Beast Legion showed that beast taming geniuses who undergo tremendous terror between life and death have a certain chance of gaining insight, allowing their soul level to reach Green level.
The so-called soul level of trainers is not divided by the strength of psychic power but is divided into four levels according to the mental state of the trainers: heaven, earth, mysterious, and yellow.
Being able to see through life and death, gain insight, and reach to the depths of their hearts is a Green-level soul.
A Green-level soul can increase the probability of advancing to the King by 50% and even has a 20% increase in probability when promoting to the level of Epic.
However, not every beast taming genius is able to gain insight in the face of death. Many geniuses die on the battlefield, but only a few trainers can comprehend the Green-level soul and survive.
Nevertheless, Law Webster believes that even if other trainers are unable, David’s monstrous aptitude absolutely will enable him to gain insight in this ordeal. It is all worth it!
When the sun began to set, the new students’ assessments were nearing their end.
Under David’s guidance, the group killed more than a hundred Class III superior beasts and over thirty Class IV elite beasts in the Mountain Everlasting range.
As for the Class V lower-level Commander beasts, they killed as many as four one of which was wiped out by Daphne’s Destiny Judgement, causing the members of David’s team to look at Daphne with some fear.
It was precisely because Daphne’s skills were too destructive, vaporizing the resources on the beasts’ bodies with a casual blow, that David assigned her protection tasks and tried to keep her from participating in the battles among the team members.
At this moment, David watched as the terrifying Ice Tornado roared like thunder, blocking the Ice True Dragon that suddenly appeared in front of him.
However, the results were minimal, barely leaving any scars on the flawless, glass-like body of the opponent.
David Jones’s pupils suddenly contracted, and his face became serious, unconsciously commanding.
“Rainbow, use Confusion to restrict its actions!”
Daphne, prepare to use the most powerful Destiny Judgement.”
“Violet, have your Copper Turtle retreat quickly, or it will be instantly killed! The same goes for everyone else’s pet beasts, keep a safe distance and retreat!” Upon hearing this, the people who knew they would only be dragging their feet reluctantly nodded, then followed the captain’s instructions to quickly command their pet beasts to retreat.
“Standing back, use Red Warmth Flame to restore the captain’s pet beasts’ strength.”
Yolanda York looked at the distant majestic creature and gritted her teeth, directing the Redwarm Rabbit.
Use Holy Light to bestow a buff on the captain’s pet beasts.”
After retreating to a safe position, Cecily Mansfield, who was unwilling to be a spectator, also commanded her Holy Stardust to use the skill.
Seeing this, even though they knew it would be a drop in the bucket, other teammates also had their pet beasts cast buff skills.
In an instant, colorful skills fell on the serious-looking Rainbow and Daphne.
Now confronting them was an ancient, mysterious creature-a True Dragon- as if it had walked out of mythology.
“Damn it! There really are horned dragons dwelling in the Mountain Everlasting!”
Margaret Yule stared at the beautiful Horned Dragon, with round dragon eyes thick eyebrows, sharp and slender tail like swirling clouds, full of disbelief.
“Are we going to die here?”
Violet Cooper’s eyes reddened, as if she imagined herself being devoured by a True Dragon.
“Don’t be afraid, with the Captain here, we’ll be fine!”
Sylvia Creek patted Violet Cooper’s head while suppressing fear in her heart, comforting her.
Iron-Spring Python, seize the opportunity to strike it with a deadly poison.”
Yann York’s right hand trembled slightly as he stroked the body of the trembling Iron-Spring Python, whose head was pressed tightly against the ground.
In the face of the terrifying Dragon Domination from the True Dragon, he knew that the snake-like Iron-Spring Python was utterly powerless and would even choose to die obediently.
But Yann York was not willing to give up, even if the chances were slim, he still wanted to fight side by side with the captain.
Unfortunately, with fear covering its thoughts, the Iron-Spring Python still lay on the ground, completely losing its consciousness.
Meanwhile, David Jones looked at the Glaze Dragon in the sky, its eyes filled with killing intent, and felt the Overlord Domination that pervaded from its body, filling his mind with doubts.
With his Second Talent, Dragon-Wielding, he should not have been attacked by a True Dragon, unless someone instructed it!
Thinking of this, David Jones’s eyes imperceptibly glanced towards the horizon.
Mr. Clark, who had been hiding nearby and secretly protecting them, had disappeared at some point.
“Is this a coincidence or man-made?” David Jones’s eyes sank.
