Chapter 173: Chapter 120: The Seventh-Rank Master is Severely Injured, in Imminent Danger!
Translator: 549690339
Chen Fan saw Blackie looking utterly devastated and couldn’t help urging: “Hurry up, after you’ve devoured so many Crying Demons and souls, you’ve reached the peak of Level 4, you’re just one step away!”
“Swallow this porridge and you’ll instantly break through to Level 5!” “If you break through to Level 5, our chances of survival will be even higher!”
Chu Xuan remained silent.
By drinking this “porridge”, Blackie could breakthrough to Level 5?
Is that true or false…
Then Blackie, begrudgingly, flew down.
It stood in front of the bowl of porridge and turned to look at Gangzi: “Gangzi, do you really brush your teeth every day? Why haven’t I seen you brushing your teeth?”
Gangzi looked up and thought. Brushing teeth… what does that mean?
“Sigh!”
Blackie sighed deeply: “With wind howling and the river freezing, this poridge will be my undoing.”
“Well, if death is imminent!”
Blackie closed its eyes and gulped down the bowl of porridge.
Once it finished, Chen Fan held Blackie and transferred the system energy over.
Next moment…
In the darkness, countless stars suddenly appeared!
The universe’s elemental energy around them started to converge towards Blackie!
“Level 5!”
Blackie yelled: “Hahaha, damn it, I finally made it to Level 5!”
Gangzi and Snowy rolled their eyes at the same time.
This creature was always foul mouthed, no wonder it got beaten up all the time.
Actually, Gangzi also often cursed.
But no matter how hard Gangzi cursed, people couldn’t understand.
Blackie was different, it actually spoke human language.
Saying ‘old man’ and ‘damn it’ all the time, it was a wonder it didn’t get beat up more than seven times a day.
Chen Fan examined Blackie’s attribute panel.
[Species Skills]: Soul Devourer, Mental Spike, Shadow Arrow (evolved from Sharp Beak Peck), Fear (causes the enemy to run away in extreme fear, lasts for 4 seconds, can target up to 4 enemies at the same time)
Not only had Blackie awakened a skill, even the most useless “Sharp Beak Peck,” had evolved into Shadow Arrow!
With these two skills, it felt like Blackie’s power had greatly increased!
Previously, Blackie’s main use was to use “Mental Spike” in battle, to assist Chen Fan and Snowy in their attacks.
Blackie’s own Sharp Beak Peck, might have been enough to peck at bugs, but using it to peck at people or monsters, was purely comedic.
Even though its Mental Spike was powerful, it could only kill monsters with much lower combat power levels. It wouldn’t stand a chance against monsters of the same level.
Now it was different…
Not only did it have an additional control skill “Fear”, it also possessed the long-range attack skill “Shadow Arrow”!
Chen Fan did not hesitate, he directly maxed out the proficiency of Blackie’s skill “Fear” with 100 points!
Blackie felt a change in its own skills.
It squinted slightly, locking onto Snowy and Gangzi, along with the
Dark-blood Stone Golem and the Desert Wind Falcon with its mental energy.
And then…
“Fear!”
The skill “Fear” was released, like a small black light, crashing into Snowy and the others’ minds.
“Ahhh!”
“Why am I suddenly so scared!”
“Quack Quack Quack! ”
“Roar roar roar roar!”
Snowy and Gangzi, immediately scurried around the room!
The first two voices were Gangzi’s and Snowy’s, which Chen Fan understood.
The latter ‘quack quack quack’ and ‘roar roar roar’, were the Desert Wind Falcon’s and the Dark-blood Stone Golem’s, which Chen Fan didn’t understand.
Under Chu Xuan’s dumbstruck gaze, the four Guardian Beasts darted around for 4 seconds before stopping.
“Sizzle!”
Snowy rushed over with a “Thunder Flash”, pressing down on Blackie’s head, giving it a good beating.
Chen Fan quickly stopped her: “Wait, wait, wait, don’t kill him, we still need him to help kill the Crying Demons.”
Gangzi who just rushed over, glared at Blackie while grinding his teeth.
The Dark-blood Stone Golem scratched its head, looking at Blackie speechlessly.
The Desert Wind Falcon was so angry it was hopping with rage, quacking non-stop in its mouth until Chu Xuan pacified it.
“Hehehe…”
Blackie gave a smug and cheerful laugh: “The tide has turned, don’t underestimate me just because I’m poor!”
“I’m really powerful now!”
Chu Xuan seeing all this, a smile also appeared at the corner of her mouth.
“Don’t celebrate too soon.”
Chen Fan poured cold water straight away: “Crying Demon’s Avatar is split from that Level 32 Crying Demon, Level 5 and 6 we can still handle, what if a
Level 7 or 8 comes…”
Before he even finished his sentence, he instinctively looked towards the door.
“Whew!”
Chen Fan let out a deep sigh: “Thank God I’m not a doom-monger like Shen Dao.”
Chu Xuan:
Chen Fan picked up his long knife and opened the door: “Blackie, be alert, continue to devour as much as you can!”
As soon as the door opened, crying sounds could be heard from both ends of the corridor.
The crying sounds were getting closer and closer! “Close the door, it can actually stop the Crying Demons!”
Chen Fan and Chu Xuan looked at each other.
After closing the door, they didn’t see any Crying Demons attacking the door.
As soon as the door opened, the Crying Demons could immediately sense it and rush over frantically?
If that was the case, staying in the room should be safer.
Chen Fan and Chu Xuan, along with Elder Ape and the others retreated.
The Crying Demon was a soul entity, Elder Ape and the others couldn’t be of much help, also Chen Fan and Chu Xuan hadn’t recovered, and they didn’t have any Thunder attribute weapons, so they had no choice but to step back and let Blackie and Snowy handle the situation on their own.
At this time, Blackie let out a cold sniff and said: “Snowy, don’t act rashly.”
“Let them see how powerful I truly am!”
