Playing with fantasy beasts in the martial arts world

Chapter 57 Full Bloom

Of course, there's nothing wrong with outsourcing. Pets that aren't directly tamed can't use pet technology, so you can't expect them to do complicated tasks like crafting, cooking, or making potions. But they can still do things like chopping trees, mining, collecting wild resources, and forming large groups to fight bosses.

If Cha Nan could assemble a team of tens of thousands of mischievous cats, he would dare to challenge even the Stone Slab BOSS.

Moreover, by outsourcing the taming of magical beasts, he doesn't have to be responsible for them, which reduces expenses such as food, living conditions, and living environment. No matter how you look at it, it's a huge profit.

As dawn broke, the chill of the night quickly faded from the mountains and forests. In an instant, the world seemed to have transformed from the frigid Arctic into the mild and spring-like Chengdu.

Such a large temperature change, with almost no buffer time, made everyone feel strange.

There are just too many unsolved mysteries in this world, so a few more won't really make a difference.

With enough Paru ore fragments in hand, the entire base began a full mobilization.

Planting wheat remains the top priority, so most of the working beasts at the stronghold possess some degree of sowing and harvesting abilities. Currently, there are no beasts with watering characteristics, so the task of watering the wheat fields is entrusted to Jellyfish Yin Ji. At the same time, she also serves as the protector of the stronghold. When a group of beasts tries to plunder, she is responsible for leading the beasts in the stronghold to drive the intruders out.

Qi Shaoshang, along with Shi Shugang, took the newly tamed mischievous cats to the woods to find more mischievous cats, help the tamed mischievous cat "Young Tiger" gather its followers, and form a team of mischievous cats. After that, they went to the mining area where there were basically no open-pit mines left to mine.

Following Cha Nan's previous plan, Yun Zhonghe became a lone wolf, using his speed and agility to explore the surrounding area, trying to record the gathering areas of mythical beasts in the surrounding mountains and forests, the distribution range of different mythical beast groups, etc. Finding new teleportation points would be ideal, and it also served as a task to find the traces of the BOSS.

Yun Zhonghe can be described as a scout, and his mission is the most dangerous, with the possibility of dying and returning to the base at any time.

As for Cha Nan, Guo Jing, Huang Rong, and Guo Fu, they formed an expedition team with the aim of finding mythical beasts with greater value in work or combat and subduing them.

Of all the mythical beasts that Cha Nan possesses, only the Gale Falcon is somewhat powerful, but it is an aerial unit, unable to fight tough battles, and even less able to withstand damage.

At this point, Cha Nan's minimum requirement is to find one or two ice-type and fire-type magical beasts and tame them. Ice-type magical beasts generally come with freezing control skills, while fire-type magical beasts deal more damage and have a burning effect. With these two types of magical beasts as a foundation, even if Cha Nan encounters a master of the innate level alone, he can rely on the skill effects of these two types of magical beasts to withstand the attack for a certain period of time.

However, in this world of mythical beasts, different types of mythical beasts seem to follow their attribute characteristics and move around in specific areas. It is not easy to find ice-type and fire-type mythical beasts in the vast mountains and forests.

The mountains and forests are mostly inhabited by non-attribute, earth-type, and grass-type mythical beasts.

In the world of fantasy beasts, there are twelve attributes in total: eight elemental attributes, namely fire, water, wind, thunder, ice, earth, light, and darkness, and four special attributes, namely grass, ground, dragon, and no attribute.

Some of these mythical beasts possess multiple attributes. However, such beasts with multiple attributes are not necessarily stronger. For example, if a beast possesses both water and fire attributes, its characteristics will likely cancel each other out, causing both of its attack powers to decrease. But if the two attributes complement each other, then the beast will be superimposed and strengthened.

Cha Nan and his group first passed through the teleportation point and arrived at the foot of the mountain. Then they continued to walk along the river. Because in the fantasy world, Cha Nan could only release one of the Palu in the party, Guo Fu was recalled to the party halfway. Cha Nan then rode a wolf, while Guo Jing and Huang Rong followed behind using their lightness skills.

As for riding the Gale Falcon, it requires more learning and adaptation. Without unlocking the riding props, even if the Gale Falcon itself has the riding conditions, he still needs to master the technique first, otherwise flying into the sky would just be performing a human vertical fall.

After running for an unknown distance, all that could be seen were mountains upon mountains and trees upon trees. Most of the mythical beasts that came into view did not inspire Cha Nan any desire to tame them.

Finally, after about an hour, Cha Nan managed to stop the running wolf. Just a short distance ahead, there was a canyon radiating scorching heat. Looking down into the canyon, one could see a winding river of lava, and some fire-type magical beasts with flames burning on their bodies were wandering around this lava river.

"Finally found it!" Cha Nan was overjoyed, but she didn't let her joy go to her head.

Just by looking at the piles of phantom beast skeletons near the lava river, you can tell that these fire-type phantom beasts are not to be trifled with.

In the lava river, two fire foxes, each the size of a wolfhound, were locked in a fierce battle, their teeth bared, sparks flying, and their wounds so deep that bone was visible.

Compared to the docile and generally kind nature of the non-attribute, grass-type, and earth-type magical beasts in the mountains and forests, these fire-type magical beasts seem to be more aggressive and have a fiery temper.

If Cha Nan and the others make too much noise and attract their attention, thus becoming the target of their attacks... that would definitely not be a pleasant experience.

Further afield, there are the Blazing Bull and the Flaming Deer that Cha Nan has been longing for.

Cha Nan dismounted from the wolf's back, thought for a moment, and turned to Guo Jing, saying, "Uncle Guo! Look at that big orange-red bull that's all flaming. Do you have the ability to subdue it?"

Cha Nan estimated that the Blazing Bull was at least level seven or eight, and with the fire effects all over its body, it was definitely a difficult target with both offense and defense.

Moreover, the Fiery Bull looked about the size of a small truck, and its sheer size alone exuded an imposing aura.

Guo Jing cautiously replied, "I haven't tried it myself, so I'm not sure!"

"However, I can lure them over and try. Even if we can't win, we can retreat first."

As he spoke, he raised the triple bow in his hand.

With a bow in hand, one can indeed probe from a distance.

Cha Nan shook her head and said, "No need for that trouble..."

As he spoke, he released the burrowing rat from the group, commanding it to burrow underground and sneak up behind a Blazing Bull. It suddenly jumped out, slashed out with its claws, and then immediately burrowed back underground to escape.

The Blazing Bull, whose claw had been inexplicably stabbed, let out an angry moo. Unable to find the culprit, it went berserk on the spot, its body engulfed in rolling flames, and charged at the nearest Fiery Deer.

Caught off guard, the fire deer was sent flying by the impact, spitting out scalding blood mixed with fragments of its internal organs.

"Such a powerful impact! That slam... had seventy percent of my palm strike power!" Guo Jing exclaimed.

Cha Nan was secretly astonished upon hearing this.

The Fiery Bull Phantom Beast, the size of a small truck, charged in fury, but its impact was only equivalent to 70% of Guo Jing's palm strike... This doesn't even take into account Guo Jing's modesty. Just how ferocious must Guo Jing's full-force palm strike have been?
