Andre's Pet Shop Adventure

Chapter 34: Chapter 34: Awakening of Spiritual Wisdom



Skull

Attributes: Demonic pet

Level: First-order middle

Combat power: 28

Qualification: Low-level

Ability control: Reconstruction of broken limbs

Its attribute panel still looks quite simple, and it only has one basic ability belonging to the skeleton race.

However, compared with the previous time, Skull's changes are really huge.

First of all, its combat power has increased from the original weak and almost negligible 11 points to 28 points in one fell swoop, which is undoubtedly a qualitative leap. You know, 11 points of combat power is only equivalent to the combat level of ordinary humans, while 28 points of combat power is enough for it to easily hunt down ferocious beasts like tigers. The gap between them is self-evident, like a world of difference.

Moreover, in this special place where undead creatures live in the Chaos Dead World, Skull has hardly practiced deliberately, but his level has been successfully promoted from the first-order lower position to the middle position. Although such progress seems small, it is also precious.

"The aptitude has been upgraded from inferior to the lowest, and with the level of the first-order middle, it can burst out a combat power close to the third-order. If it is placed in the ordinary standard, it can be regarded as extremely excellent. But in front of the strict evaluation standards of the system, it can only be barely satisfactory." Andre smiled bitterly and thought to himself. When he thought of the upper-middle-level task requirements, he couldn't help but feel a little frustrated, like a haze quietly covering his heart.

However, Andre immediately thought that after they were teleported to this chaotic dead world, although they had repeatedly experienced countless death tests, in fact, up to now, they have only spent two or three hours here. To achieve such a degree of improvement in such a short time is actually a very good result, as if finding a ray of hope in the darkness.

"Woo!"

Suddenly, the lightning mouse rushed back from a distance like a flash of lightning, emitting a strong signal of vigilance and tension, like a warning of impending danger.

Andre came back to his senses instantly, staring at the Lei Guang Rat with a torch-like gaze, and saw a huge skeleton crawling and chasing after the pile of bones behind the Lei Guang Rat. The skeleton was nearly five meters long, and its posture was peculiar. It had the agility and agility of a wild beast, and seemed to have integrated the twisted outline of a human body. Its whole body was made up of the bones of various creatures, which looked weird and terrifying. At this moment, it was crawling and moving quickly on the pile of bones with its limbs, aiming directly at the Lei Guang Rat. It looked like a demon crawling out of the abyss of hell, exuding a chilling breath.

Seeing this monster appear, Andre did not show any nervousness, but quickly put himself into a state of high seriousness and concentration. He unhesitatingly used his unique "Killing Intent" skill, and shouted, "Go!"

The Lightning Rat, which had originally escaped, suddenly turned blood red after receiving Andre's order, bared its teeth and roared, then stopped steadily as if it had braked suddenly, and then its whole body instantly surged with dazzling lightning, like a shining electric ball, it turned around and rushed back towards the huge skeleton, its momentum was like a warrior who was ready to die, not afraid of the powerful enemy in front of him.

Andre turned his head to look at Skull at his feet, only to see that it was still standing there stupidly, but unlike the pure dullness in the past, it seemed to be immersed in an extremely comfortable and pleasant enjoyment at this moment. All over its body, the originally gray mist was now entangled with strands of blood-colored energy. These energies flowed slowly between all the bones of its body like a lively stream, making those bones gradually become tighter and firmer under the joint spread and nourishment of gray energy and blood, as if undergoing a transformation.

Andre noticed that Skull seemed to be in a critical period of digesting the blood-red gem. After a little thought, he decided not to send Skull to fight for the time being, but let the Lightning Mouse deal with the enemy in front of him alone, so as to take this opportunity to test the growth and strength of the Lightning Mouse.

The combat power of this huge crawling skeleton was obviously better than the humanoid skeleton they had encountered before. The Lightning Mouse simply relied on its own speed, which was obviously difficult to compete with it, and its reaction speed was far slower than that of the other party. Fortunately, the Lightning Rat had previously mastered the "Lightning Flash", one of the ten magical secrets. This ability gave it the magical possibility of leapfrogging the rank of the enemy. Combined with Andre's magical unlimited resurrection ability, it was able to weaken the enemy bit by bit, thus launching a protracted war of attrition, like a contest of endurance and wisdom.

"Bang!"

After experiencing hundreds of resurrections and battles in a row, the Lightning Rat suddenly shone brightly, and a dazzling lightning like thunder shot out instantly, its speed was as fast as lightning that cut through the night sky. Amazingly, when they were several meters apart, the lightning had already struck the crawling skeleton like an arrow from a string, making a deafening roar, as if the thunder in the sky exploded on the ground.

Seeing this, Andre was slightly stunned, and his heart was full of surprise. He had never seen this kind of attack trick on the Thunder Rat before. It was as if the Thunder Rat suddenly realized a new skill in the desperate situation of this fierce battle.

Andre quickly performed an identification spell on the Thunder Rat. After taking a look, he immediately found that there was a new ability in the Thunder Rat's ability column, called "Flying Thunder Arrow".

"Medium thunder ability is usually a skill that thunder flying pets have mastered. I didn't expect this little guy to force out such an ability in battle..." After seeing it clearly, Andre couldn't help but smile with relief, secretly admiring in his heart. Although this is only a medium ability, it can achieve long-range attacks. This is undoubtedly a great help to the Thunder Rat, greatly enhancing its combat ability and giving it more strategies and choices in battle.

It can be seen that this little guy was forced into a desperate situation under the difficult situation of relying on "Thunder Flash" to attack at close range continuously. Only under the huge pressure between life and death, he stimulated his potential and came up with such a clever trick to attack the enemy remotely, like a beam of hope in the darkness, illuminating its way to defeat the enemy.

After mastering the powerful skill of "Flying Thunder Arrow", the combat power of the Thunder Rat has also been significantly improved, reaching 43 points in one fell swoop, and it has a powerful strength that can rival many fourth-level combat pets. It seems that it has grown from a fledgling soldier to a brave and fearless knight in an instant, which is impressive.

After about an hour of fierce fighting, the huge crawling skeleton finally ran out of strength and fell to the ground. The dark turbid air contained in it has been exhausted, and there is no energy to repair the broken bones. It can only helplessly let the Thunder Rat dismantle its huge body, like a collapsed castle, and the winners willfully divide up the spoils.

After the crawling skeleton fell to the ground, Skull immediately trotted over like a gust of wind and picked up the pile of bones with great interest. But this time, it did not pick bones to replace its own parts as it did in the past. Instead, it carefully selected a bone that looked sharper, held it tightly in its hand, and then trotted back to Andre with it.

Andre couldn't help but feel a little funny when he saw Skull holding the sharp bone knife, as if he saw an innocent child finding his favorite toy. At the same time, he was full of surprise and curiosity, thinking to himself: "What use is this thing to it? It seems that it will take a lot of time to digest the blood-red ruby." Andre's eyes fell on the blood-red ruby ​​in Skull's skull. He keenly noticed that the blood energy in the ruby ​​was being absorbed by Skull, and it seemed to have a slight sign of shrinking, like a mysterious star that was gradually losing energy.

Andre did not choose to rest. He knew that in this chaotic dead world full of dangers, only by constantly fighting could he and his pets grow and improve more. So he ordered the Lightning Rat to find prey nearby and lure it over, ready to welcome the baptism of the next battle, like a brave general, constantly leading his soldiers to charge on the battlefield.

Although the Lightning Rat was reluctant, it did not dare to disobey Andre's order. It could only drag its tired body and slowly leave, looking back every three steps. Not long after, it ran back in panic, and behind it, it suddenly attracted two extremely weird skeletons. One of them looked like a beast, exuding a wild breath, as if it was a ferocious hunter from the ancient wilderness; the other one looked like a human skeleton, but it was extremely huge, four or five meters tall, and its body looked quite clumsy. It also held a huge skeleton in its hand, using it as a shield, like a mobile fortress, exuding a strong sense of oppression.

These skeletons obviously have a certain degree of simple intelligence. Their thinking may be derived from the consciousness left in their bones. Because of this, they know how to use equipment to enhance their strength and gain greater advantages in battle, as if they are a group of intelligent undead warriors.

Seeing this, Andre immediately and decisively ordered Skull and the Lightning Rat to fight together, ready to meet this more severe challenge.

Skull waved the small bone knife in his hand and rushed towards the agile crawling skeleton without hesitation, looking like a fearless warrior rushing to the battlefield.

What was unexpected was that when the two skeletons saw Skull, they seemed to be attracted by some powerful magic, and at the same time gave up attacking the Lightning Rat, and turned around and rushed towards Skull frantically, with greed and desire in their eyes, as if Skull had the treasure they dreamed of.

Skul waved the small bone knife in his hand, jumped up, and chopped the crawling skeleton with all his strength. However, the small bone knife failed to cut the opponent's hard bones. Instead, because of excessive force, it was hit hard by the opponent's skeleton. In an instant, Skul's body flew backwards like a kite with a broken string and fell heavily to the ground. But surprisingly, its body seemed to be much tougher than before, and it did not fall apart instantly like before. It seemed that after the previous transformation, its body strength was greatly improved and it had a stronger ability to resist blows.

Andre quickly performed an identification spell on the crawling skeleton. After seeing this, he couldn't help but frowned slightly, and his heart was full of solemnity. I saw that the combat power of this crawling skeleton was as high as 52 points, far surpassing Skul and Lei Guangshu, like an insurmountable mountain, lying in front of them.

The crawling skeleton rushed to Skull like a black lightning, opened its bloody mouth, and bit Skull's whole body, and then began to chew and shake it, as if it wanted to eat Skull completely and turn it into a part of itself. The scene was extremely terrifying and bloody.

But at this critical moment, the giant skeleton following behind suddenly attacked. The huge skeleton shield in its hand was like a huge hammer, hitting the crawling skeleton heavily, making a dull loud noise. This sudden attack successfully rescued Skull from the crawling skeleton's mouth. However, before Skull could recover, the giant skeleton stepped on it again, grabbed Skull's body that was about to fall apart, and then threw it directly into his mouth. In an instant, the dark turbid air of the giant skeleton surged out like a surging tide, as if to completely assimilate Skull's entire body and make it a part of its own body. The scene was like a dark swallowing battle, which was horrifying.

"Crack".

Under the crushing force of the giant skeleton, Skull's body was unable to bear it after all, and it shattered in an instant. At the same time, the blood-red ruby ​​in its skull also fell out, like a star that had lost its support and floated in the head of the giant skeleton.

Almost at the same time, Andre also received the prompt information of Skull's resurrection in his mind. He was slightly startled, and his heart was full of doubts and surprise. He didn't expect that after Skull died, the blood-red ruby ​​would fall out. Could it be because it had not been completely absorbed?

Andre didn't have time to think about it. He quickly and decisively resurrected Skull, and then immediately ordered it to cooperate with the Lightning Mouse to concentrate on attacking the giant skeleton. At this moment, in his mind, only by defeating the enemy in front of him as soon as possible can they ensure their survival in this dangerous chaotic dead world, as if they were racing against the god of death, and every step could not be slack.

At this time, in addition to Skull and the Lightning Rat, the crawling skeleton hit by the shield seemed to have a strong interest in the blood-red ruby ​​in the giant skeleton's head. It ignored the brief conflict with the giant skeleton before, turned around and pounced on the giant skeleton, and started a fierce battle with the giant skeleton, as if two hungry wild wolves were fighting for a delicious prey, neither of them giving in.

"Use lightning flash, drill directly into its brain, and bring out the gem!" Andre quickly passed his battle plan to the Lightning Rat through his mind, and the order was like a military order that could not be disobeyed.

After receiving Andre's meaning, the Lightning Rat used the "Lightning Flash" skill without hesitation. I saw its body flashing continuously like a flash of lightning, and it disappeared in an instant. Then, it appeared directly in the giant skeleton's huge skull and bit the blood-red ruby ​​suspended in it. Then, the electric light on its body flashed again, and it left the giant skeleton's head like a flash of lightning, and then flashed twice in a row, and then appeared in front of Andre like a ghost. The whole process was done in one go, like a wonderful magic show.

Andre quickly reached out and caught the blood-red ruby ​​in the mouth of the lightning mouse, and then directly put it into his storage space. He thought to himself that although this thing had a great effect on Skul, given Skul's current physique, it seemed that it would not be possible to fully absorb this thing in a short time. Moreover, they were now in this dangerous chaotic dead world. If they suddenly encountered an accident and died, if this precious gem was favored by other powerful beings, there would be no chance to snatch it back, just like a precious treasure exposed in the dangerous wilderness, which could be taken away by others at any time.

"I can only wait until I have time to absorb it slowly, and let the system identify what this thing is." Andre made a decision in his heart. He looked up at the battlefield and saw that the two crawling skeletons stopped fighting after losing the attraction of the blood-red ruby. At this moment, their eyes fell on Andre and Lei Guangshu again. The viciousness in their eyes seemed to announce to them that a new battle was about to begin. "Kill!" Andre gave the battle order again without hesitation. His voice was firm and powerful, like a battle horn, inspiring Skull and Lei Guangshu to move forward bravely. On the battlefield of this chaotic undead world, they can only survive in this dangerous and unknown world by fighting continuously and write their own legendary stories.
