Starting with Crimson

"Ugh..."

The window was completely undamaged; you couldn't tell it had just been hit by a dog.

However, the husky's eyes were blurry, and it slowly slid towards the sand, close to the window.

What the hell....

This is what you meant by "Crimson: Monarch-level opponents easily defeat Elite-level opponents"...

Who exactly is floating around?!

Li Qingyu was originally prepared to admire how the evolved husky would dominate the entire scene.

This is messed up...

Even Li Qingyu felt a little reluctant...

At this moment, the husky slid onto the sand like a dead dog, shook its head, and stood up with a dazed look in its eyes.

Suddenly, Erha saw Li Qingyu's big face through the window.

The husky immediately wagged its tail excitedly, stuck out its tongue, and happily rushed towards Li Qingyu, showing no signs of having just been slapped.

Seeing that Erha was unharmed, Li Qingyu felt relieved.

However, Li Qingyu was deeply worried about the intelligence of the husky after its evolution.

It seems this silly dog ​​doesn't even realize... it's been hit...

[Crimson: Don't worry, even if a monarch-level physique is only in its infancy, it's not something any subpar elite-level can break.]

[Besides, your puppy still has its original form, so it's even less afraid of these harms. There's no need to worry.]

The Primordial Body?

Li Qingyu narrowed his eyes and began to examine the husky's skill information.

[Primal Form: After taking damage, there is an 80% chance to revert to the physical state three seconds prior. After death, there is a 50% chance to revert to the initial form.]

Tsk tsk tsk....

Upon reading the introduction to the Primordial Body, Li Qingyu was filled with emotion.

That's fucking perverted....

Can someone be resurrected after dying?!

Just as Li Qingyu was about to check out the husky's other skills to see if they were any more abnormal,

The sand scorpion leader in the distance saw the husky he had knocked away get up again, and even wag its tail provocatively with its back to him.

A fierce glint flashed in its eyes, and with a flick of its eight thick scorpion legs, it raised its giant pincers and charged furiously at the husky.

Unfortunately, the husky was completely oblivious to the commotion behind it, still rummaging through the pineapple castle, trying to find the entrance to go in and find Li Qingyu.

Li Qingyu saw the Sand Scorpion leader rushing towards him and didn't have time to open the door for Erha.

With a thought, he directly activated the Heart of the Beast King.

In an instant, Li Qingyu felt his heartbeat suddenly quicken and become heavy.

Yes, no matter how easily Crimson says Monarch-level enemies can defeat Elite-level enemies, Li Qingyu feels he has to go all out. There's no need to conserve energy; it just means expending more stamina, since Beast King's Heart has no cooldown anyway.

As the Beast King's Heart was activated, the husky's tender, small body rapidly expanded.

However, this time, the husky only swelled to half the height of Pineapple Castle, not nearly as big as when it was Cerberus.

Of course, it's not exactly small; it's roughly the same size as the leader of the Sand Scorpion.

Unfortunately, the husky was completely unaware that it had grown bigger.

Just as the husky tilted its head, wondering why Li Qingyu was getting smaller and smaller, and stretched out its paw to paw at the pineapple castle.

Boom! ! !

A loud bang.

The scorpion leader suddenly crashed into the back of the husky.

However, the husky remained standing still, not even moving its legs, let alone being knocked away.

On the contrary, the sand scorpion leader felt as if he had crashed into a hard rock, and was thrown back several steps by the recoil.

This time, the husky finally got the hang of it. It stopped studying Li Qingyu in Pineapple Castle and turned to look at the Sand Scorpion leader.

"Woof woof woof!?"

The husky looked at the scorpion leader with curious eyes.

"Hiss!!"

The sand scorpion leader let out a fierce hiss.

Although the previous charge was unsuccessful, the sand scorpion leader was not intimidated and once again adopted an attack stance.

Its massive body leaned forward, its giant pincers raised, and its scorpion tail stood upright, revealing its sharp, gleaming stinger.

Seemingly sensing the Sand Scorpion leader's aggressive intent, the husky finally became serious.

Its body crouched down, its nose wrinkled slightly, its hair stood on end, and a deep growl came from its throat.

"Woof... Woof!"

"Hiss.... Roar!!"

After the roar.

A scorpion and a dog suddenly lunged forward.

Unfortunately, the husky is still young and lacks experience.

As soon as it got close, before the husky could even bite, the sand scorpion leader grabbed its head, preventing it from opening its mouth or even its eyes.

Although the scorpion leader grabbed the husky's head, its attacks were completely unable to break through the husky's defenses. It could only hold on tightly, preventing the husky from having a chance to attack.

Then, the sand scorpion leader used his scorpion tail to poke the husky's relatively soft abdomen repeatedly.

Although being stabbed won't cause injury, it doesn't mean it won't hurt. The husky, which kept getting stabbed, rolled around in the sand in pain, trying to shake off the sand scorpion leader on its head.

In a short time.

Outside Pineapple Castle, sand and dust were flying everywhere.

Li Qingyu was also helpless. Why does all you know how to do is roll away? Why don't you use some skills? You're getting sillier and sillier.

Looking at the stalemate on the battlefield, Li Qingyu glanced at Erha's other two skills.

[Eternal Darkness Destruction Wave: All light is reduced to darkness; this darkness is born only at the destruction of the universe. The Primal Destruction Beasts can use this darkness to destroy everything.]

[Royal Rule: Under the king's glory, the weak can only obey. The monarch possesses the power of coercion over lower-ranking beings.]

Just as Li Qingyu was checking the skills, the battlefield ahead also changed.

Another sand scorpion leader, lurking in the sand, saw its companion entangled with the husky and unable to break the stalemate, so it burrowed underground and came under the husky.

Followed by.

A sudden thrust.

"Awooooo!~"

The husky's pitiful howl echoed through the sky, drawing Li Qingyu's attention back to the city.

Under the sparse starlight, besides the sand scorpion leader on its head, the husky's lower body was also being held by a sand scorpion leader.

Two against one, this is...

Li Qingyu couldn't see clearly what the later leader of the Sand Scorpion had actually done.

All I could see was that the husky's barking grew increasingly shrill, and it rolled around even more vigorously. It arched and burrowed on the sand like a grasshopper in a frying pan.

Li Qingyu reached out and touched his forehead.

It really is...

It would have been better not to evolve at all...

When it had three heads, it knew how to use its fire-breathing skill, but now that it only has one head, it can't even use its skill anymore.

It seems... I'll have to rely on you again...

After a sigh, Li Qingyu directly used the telepathic ability of the Beast King's Heart to try to give commands to the husky.

"Stop rolling, use your skill... Eternal Darkness Destruction Wave!!"

That's right, Eternal Dark Destruction Wave. The name itself suggests an attack skill, so Li Qingyu naturally chose it.

at the same time.

The husky, which was rolling around, heard Li Qingyu's command in its mind and subconsciously stopped rolling.

The dog's clear black and white eyes suddenly went black, and it abruptly tilted its head back, which was being held by the sand scorpion leader.

A faint black light gleamed from the slightly parted dog's mouth—a darkness purer than the night itself...

next second.

boom!!!

A thick, jet-black beam of light shot out from the husky's mouth and pierced through the sand scorpion leader without any obstruction.

Then, it shot straight into the night sky, extending into the sparse clouds, and punched a large circular hole in the clouds.

This caused the starband, which had just been mostly obscured by clouds, to emit even brighter starlight.
