novelThe Power of the Earth, the Clever Little Silverback
| ← Ch.296 | Ch.298 → |
"This is the power of the earth?"
Hathaway looked at the ground spikes and was stunned.
Silverback Gorillas were not rare Battle Beasts.
They were strong, honest, and easy to tame.
In Water City, many guards chose Silverback Gorillas as their Battle Beasts.
Especially in the logistics department, which was in charge of logistics, Silverback Gorillas were even more common.
Silverback Gorillas were Earth-type Battle Beasts, but they were better at melee combat. Earth only gave them strong defense and a lot of strength.
Even a rare Silverback Gorilla lord could only cast an earthquake spell.
In battle, they would stomp on the ground with their big feet, dealing damage to enemies within two or three meters of them. They also had a stun effect.
Hathaway had chosen the Silverback Gorilla because she trusted Locke.
When she saw Little Silver release an extremely wide range of Earth spikes with a diameter of more than five meters, Hathaway was completely shocked.
With Little Silver as the center, there was a huge circle with a radius of five meters.
Countless Earth spike stalagmites were arranged in an irregular manner.
On each stalagmite, there were at least one or two Bonobos.
This attack had killed at least hundreds of them.
Little Silver's attack range was only so that the number of fish that escaped his net could be counted on one hand.
This was the first time Little Silver had used magic, so he was not familiar with it.
With such a killing efficiency, how many Bonobos would be enough to kill?
Roar!
Dong, dong, dong!
Little Silver seemed to have activated the power of his bloodline.
The first time he had used mana, he was very excited. He tried hard to beat his chest, and his body expanded once more.
With a big jump, he jumped more than twenty meters.
The moment he landed, countless Earth spikes rose.
This time, the range was even larger, and the radius was already over seven meters.
Little Silver was familiarizing himself with his strength.
Against a Battle Beast like the Bonobo ape, which won in numbers, a one-on-one attack was ineffective.
Even if you blew up the air with one punch, how many could you kill?
At this time, the earth spike seemed to be very useful.
Little Silver experimented a few more times and soon discovered the power of the earth spike.
He was as excited as a child.
He kept jumping around and every time he landed, a stalagmite would follow.
The Stalagmite's range was getting larger and larger.
Seven meters, nine meters, 12 meters...
In the forest, patches of stone forest were rapidly forming and quickly shrinking back.
Only patches of dark red blood were left on the spot.
In less than half an hour, more than two-thirds of the surrounding Bonobo apes had died.
The remaining ones were in between the two spells, which was why they were lucky enough to survive.
At this moment, even the Bonobo apes, who were not very smart, realized that the situation was not right.
They looked at each other and saw a hint of unease in each other's murky eyes.
Ji, ji, ji..
Finally, there was a clever way to escape.
They lowered their heads and stuck out their tails, leaving only their dark red buttocks as they plunged into the bushes.
Like a flock of messy sparrows, they scattered in a hubbub.
Roar!
Little Silver also noticed that the Bonobo was preparing to escape.
There was another roar.
This time, it was not a stalagmite, but a black barrier.
Hathaway felt her breathing become heavy.
It was as if the air had become sticky like glue. Even breathing became difficult.
There was a thin layer of black mist. All the Bonobos lay on the ground.
They struggled with all their might, but they could not move at all.
A large-scale gravity spell.
Gravity spell was not a rare spell. Anyone who had learned a bit of Earth magic would use it.
However, it was rare among Battle Beasts.
Gravity magic had limited lethality and it was also difficult to hit the range and distinguish between friend and foe.
Apart from affecting the enemy's cavalry and heavy armor soldiers in war, it was basically useless.
Now, Little Silver was using a super-large-scale gravity magic to deal with the Bonobo ape, which was physically weak.
With the small body of the Bonobo ape, it was completely unable to escape the effects of gravity magic.
It was like a nail being pulled by a magnet.
Little Silver began to adjust his magic, changing the large-scale Earth spikes into a line of small-scale Earth spikes.
He began to call out names one by one on the ground.
Looking at his serious expression, it was clear that he was not going to let any Bonobo off.
Thinking about his experience with the Bonobo race, it was not difficult to understand.
Fortunately, he was still young or the consequences would have been even more unimaginable.
"Not bad, very intelligent in battle.
"You're even more talented than I thought, just right for you."
Locke used his finger to lift Hathaway's chin and began to take credit.
Little Silver was growing at a high speed, becoming stronger every minute and second.
Who could have imagined that just a few hours ago, this was a poor little thing in the hands of the Bonobo ape, who could only be pushed around like a rag doll.
"I know how powerful you are!"
Hathaway lowered her head and gave him a big kiss.
The potential that Little Silver showed was simply much more powerful than Hathaway's previous Battle Beasts.
Hathaway might have once been the woman of a city lord and she was born into a noble family.
Her horizons were not something that ordinary people could compare to.
A Battle Beast that could make Hathaway feel amazed was definitely one in ten thousand.
"Sister Hathaway, can you let me keep one? I also want one."
Angela looked at the two of them being sweet, envious and angry.
He had already done that to her, yet he did not say anything to coax her.
Now, he was still intimate with Hathaway in front of her.
Angela was so angry that she started kicking around with her little feet. In the end, she could not resist the temptation of the Battle Beast and sneaked over.
However, she was still angry with Locke.
Instead of begging Locke, she reached out and pulled on Hathaway's sleeve.
"I can't help you with this."
"You also know that she's a Silverback Gorilla, not a Bonobo on the ground."
"Besides, these Bonobo apes are so disgusting. How can they be worthy of a noble saint like you?"
Hathaway pushed away Locke's large hands and patiently explained to Angela.
Angela naturally knew.
She was a Beast Whisperer. Back then, it was because she communicated with Little Silver that Hathaway was able to smoothly form a contract.
These words seemed to be meant for Hathaway, but they were actually meant for Locke to hear.
Seeing that Locke had not said anything, Angela angrily kicked him, pouting as she walked to the side, continuing to be angry.
"I already told you, you were the one who didn't want to."
Locke was inexplicably kicked, his face full of grievance.
"Nonsense, when did you tell me?"
"Tell me what?"
"Big liar, bad guy, you only know how to bully me!"
Angela turned around angrily and pointed her arms at rock.
"Didn't I tell you to take off your clothes and go to the river? What can I do if you don't do it?"
Locke spread his hands and showed an innocent look.
At this moment, the sound of wings flapping could be heard in the middle of the lake.
Flutter!
A pure white swan flew out of the reeds and flew far away.
