16 Chapter 13 The Strange Jade Slime
Translator: 549690339
The sound of chattering teeth echoed.
Although they still held knives and swords in their hands, none of them dared to take another step forward.
Not only did they not dare to advance, but they didn’t even dare to flee!
Facing Chen Fan and Snowy, who could pierce through one’s chest with a single thunderbolt cat claw, these people trembled all over and were petrified with fear!
Some of them even wet their pants, releasing an unpleasant odor.
Seeing this scene, the glasses-wearing youth awkwardly turned his head, blushed, and whispered, “Little brother, we all came from Earth… they are my companions.”
“I…I…can I…?”
The voice of the glasses-wearing youth grew fainter and fainter.
He knew it was an excessive request to plead for mercy for these people.
After all, just a moment ago, they earnestly wanted to kill Chen Fan and seize the Ragdoll Cat.
Chen Fan was silent for a moment, then said indifferently, “Old brother, it’s not that I don’t want to honor your request…”
“If they just wanted to beat me up or take this rabbit, I wouldn’t have to kill them all.”
“But you saw it; I barely spoke a word, and they already wanted to chop off my head.”
“If I didn’t have a Guardian Beast or this power, my corpse would be lying in front of you now.”
“Why should I spare those who wanted to kill me and acted upon it?”
“So they can seek revenge later on?”
“I’m not afraid of that sort of trouble, but I don’t need to leave it behind.”
No sooner had his words finished than Chen Fan and Snowy took action!
Thunderbolts blinked in the air and two people were killed instantly!
“Run!”
The rest of the group, who were scared out of their wits, didn’t think twice before running away!
“Kill them!”
Chen Fan’s face was stern as he waved his hand lightly.
Snowy let out a sharp cry and swung its claws. The thunder cat claws penetrated through the hearts of the escaping people!
Only the glasses-wearing youth and Scar-face and a few others were left behind.
These people were the ones who had tried to persuade against killing Chen Fan earlier.
The group stood still, their body hair standing on end!
But Chen Fan seemed as if nothing had happened; he picked up the black-haired rabbit from the ground and dragged it over to the glasses-wearing youth.
He smiled and said, “Old brother, what’s your WeChat number? Let me add you.”
“Oh… okay!” The glasses-wearing youth hurriedly opened up his smart wristwatch.
The two exchanged WeChat contacts.
Chen Fan nodded slightly: “My name is Chen Fan, and yours, old brother?”
The glasses-wearing youth hastily replied, “My name is Pan Xiangdong.”
Chen Fan pointed at the black-haired rabbit on the ground, “Brother Xiangdong, take this rabbit with you and head back to the west of the Black Ant Forest as soon as possible.”
“The further east you go, the more dangerous it becomes.”
“With this rabbit, you won’t be short of food for a few days, so it’s better to head back west.”
“No, no, no…” Pan Xiangdong waved his hands and said, “This rabbit was caught by your cat. If you give it to me, what will you and your cat eat?”
“I am a Guardian Beastmaster,” Chen Fan grinned, “I won’t starve to death in this forest.”
Chen Fan gently grasped Pan Xiangdong’s hand, tilted his head slightly at Snowy, and walked through the crowd.
The group was on edge, unconsciously moving to the side.
Chen Fan and Snowy quickly disappeared from their sight.
“Sigh…”
Scar-face sighed, “We’re all from the same place; why did we have to fight and kill each other?”
“We’re lucky we didn’t participate just now, or we would have become corpses too!”
Without saying much else, Pan Xiangdong just nodded slightly: “Let’s bury these bodies together, then head west for some distance. Once we reach a safe area, we’ll pluck the rabbit, cut it into small pieces, and roast it all.”
“Such a big rabbit should feed us for a few days.”
…
Chen Fan and Snowy followed the river, heading eastward.
The further they went, the more Iron-eating Black Ants and Holy Beetles they encountered, all in large groups.
Most of the leaders were Level 2.
Chen Fan and Snowy fought their way through, bloodbath ensued.
The cooperation between the two became more and more seamless.
As night was about to fall, there were already forty-seven monster Crystal Nuclei in the Beastmaster’s Space.
Among these forty-seven Crystal Nuclei, twelve were Level 2!
Unfortunately, while they had found several water pits along the way, they had yet to see a water pit that contained Level 3 Blue Scaled Demonic Fish.
They had caught quite a few Level 1 and 2 fish, however.
Since Snowy liked eating fish, Chen Fan didn’t waste any of them; he roasted all of them and stored them in the Beastmaster’s Space.
It seemed they still had to go to Sinking Star River and fight the Blue Scaled Demonic Fish.
Two Level 3 Blue Scaled Demonic Fish Crystal Cores were essential for Snowy to increase its Combat Power Level to Level 3!
Chen Fan stroked his chin, leading Snowy to the riverbank, preparing for a battle with the Blue Scaled Demonic Fish.
Suddenly…
He raised his foot, then gently set it back down.
There was a pile of multi-colored, squirming slime-like matter in front…
[Monster Name]: Slime
[Combat Power Level]: 1
[Species Level]: Extraordinary/Low
[Monster Attribute]: Water
[Monster Status]: Leisure
[Monster Weakness]: Earth
[Species Skills]: Spitting Saliva
[Potential Level]: One Star
“Slime?”
Chen Fan was slightly startled and then gave Snowy a look. They hid behind a big tree and opened the smart wristwatch.
He searched for “Slime” on Qiandu.
Slime…
This is the lowest level magical creature, with a jelly-like or droplet-like appearance.
Slimes come in various colors such as red, yellow, blue, and green. Some are opaque, others are translucent, and they generally have a docile nature and won’t actively attack humans.
Their bodies can change shape, split, and merge, so physical attacks have little effect on them.
However, because of their low potential and lack of attack skills, it is extremely difficult for them to increase their species level. Thus, few Guardian Beastmasters choose Slime as their guardian beasts.
On the contrary, due to their cute appearance and gentle nature, many children have taken them in as pets, like unawakened cats and dogs, and they have become companions for children as they grow up.
“It doesn’t seem like this monster is dangerous…”
Chen Fan let out a sigh of relief.
Because the further east he went, the more monsters he encountered, and the more dangerous they became, he had been cautious and vigilant on his journey.
Let’s head to the Sinking Star River.
He has important things to do…
Chen Fan led Snowy out from behind the tree.
They walked through a group of slimes, startling them and causing them to crawl away from their path.
None of the slimes attacked them.
Chen Fan’s eyes scanned over the slimes that were about twenty centimeters in diameter, curious about how they had grown from such small creatures.
Just then…
Chen Fan suddenly paused, stopping in his tracks.

“What the hell? A level 2 Slime? With a potential level of six stars?”
Chen Fan thought he saw it wrong and wiped his eyes subconsciously.
There was no change in the system panel…
It truly was level 2.
With dual attributes!
And a potential level of six stars!
Is this really the lowest level of magical creature?
Chen Fan shifted his gaze to the other slimes.
The combat power level of all other slimes was 1.
And the potential level of all other slimes was one star.
As he checked the other slimes nearby, they all had a potential of… one star!
It seems like he stumbled upon treasure, didn’t he?
Chen Fan squinted his eyes as he looked at the Jade Slime.
Even those ferocious Guardian Beasts in the Guidance Plaza only had a potential level of three stars.
A low-level magical creature like a Slime had actually reached six stars, just like Snowy?
Chen Fan’s heart soared…
It seemed that the Jade Slime noticed Chen Fan’s gaze, and the status on its system panel changed to “Fear.”
But it still crawled slowly on the cyan stone without any difference from the other slimes.
“This Slime is highly intelligent!”
Chen Fan’s eyes lit up, and he quietly instructed Snowy. They split up and approached the Jade Slime from both left and right.
The Jade Slime slowly crawled towards the riverbank.
Just as Chen Fan and Snowy were less than six meters away…
“Whoosh!”
Incredibly, the Jade Slime shot up into the air, soaring seven meters high, and spread out a pair of transparent wings on both sides of its body. It glided rapidly towards the Sinking Star River!
“Trying to escape?!”
Chen Fan sneered, “Snowy, bring it down!”
Prepared for this, Snowy quickly swung its small paw!
“Crack!”
A flash of lightning sparked in the sky, and the Jade Slime let out a shriek, falling to the ground!
Chen Fan rushed over with all his strength, and together with Snowy, trapped the Jade Slime between them!
“Chirp chirp!”
The Jade Slime panicked and instinctively opened its mouth, exhaling a cold breath.
“Whoosh!”
A gale swept out, pushing Chen Fan towards the Sinking Star River.
“Damn it…”
Chen Fan’s face turned pale, feeling his whole body go numb.
Although the Jade Slime was already level 2, its “Gale” skill didn’t have much attack power, merely blowing Chen Fan’s body backward.
The problem was…
Just a few meters behind him was the Sinking Star River!
That group of Blue Scaled Demonic Fish in the river were all battle maniacs, and all of them even had their own machine guns!
