Water World Beast Taming: My Pets Can Evolve Infinitely

Chapter 18 Saury

"Help...help me..."

The effect of sound propagation: regardless of distance or speed, iron (solid) is better than water (liquid) which is better than air (gas).

Therefore, it is easier to hear cries for help in the water, and it is also easier to hear cries for help from a greater distance.

Hearing the faint cry for help, Jiang Chen was slightly taken aback.

Nangong Yan was also stunned for a moment, but the next second he jumped up from the ground, his eyes glowing green, and said excitedly and anxiously, "That voice!"

"That voice belongs to Zhang Mingwan. She's in danger; she's calling for help!"

Jiang Chen asked, confused, "Who is Zhang Mingwan?"

"Our classmate, the deskmate of the goddess Ke Zixuan!"

Jiang Chen remembered Ke Zixuan.

Ke Zixuan is the goddess recognized by the boys in Class 3 of Senior Three. It would be difficult for Jiang Chen not to know her.

"Why do you seem a little excited?" Jiang Chen glanced at his reserved deskmate.

Nangong Yan clenched his fists, his face resolute, and said, "With all my attributes, there's absolutely no way I can win over Goddess Ke Zixuan!"

"But Zhang Mingwan, I can still give it a try!" Nangong Yan's eyes shone with hope.

Jiang Chen: You do have a good sense of self-awareness...

"Hurry, hurry, let's go and be the hero and save the damsel in distress! Maybe Zhang Mingwan will fall in love with me because of this!" Nangong Yan said, urging Jiang Chen to move forward.

Jiang Chen said quietly, "Didn't you say that being your homeroom teacher was your life's goal? Xiao Yan, you've lost your dream!"

Nangong Yan retorted, "I call this keeping my feet on the ground while looking up at the stars!"

"Being a homeroom teacher is the ultimate dream, but before that dream arrives, we need to break down our goals!"

"First, pursue some girls who are relatively easy to get, then gradually challenge yourself with more difficult ones, and finally climb to the peak of becoming the homeroom teacher!"

Jiang Chen rolled his eyes. If you're so affectionate and loving, just say so. What kind of excuses are you making up?

Alright, since we're classmates, I'll lend a hand if I can.

The place where Zhang Mingwan's voice came from was directly in front of the two of them. After walking in the direction of the voice for about fifteen minutes, the terrain in front of them suddenly bends down, forming a depression, like a basin with a large bowl.

Zhang Mingwan's cries for help came clearly from below the basin.

Because of the terrain, Jiang Chen and Nangong Yan could see the situation below at a glance.

At this moment, in the very center of this basin, two graceful figures were moving about, their spiritual energy bursting forth as they dodged attacks that came from all directions!

These two people are Ke Zixuan and Zhang Mingwan.

As for the weapon that attacked the two, Jiang Chen was very familiar with it; one glance and his mouth watered…

They were slender, knife-like fish-like marine creatures, about a meter long, with dark blue backs, silvery-white bellies, and slightly yellow snouts and tail peduncle.

That's right, these marine creatures are saury!

He was a regular customer at the barbecue stall that Jiang Chen frequented in his previous life!

However, the saury Jiang Chen had encountered in his previous life were only 20 centimeters long at most, but the ones appearing in the field now were all a meter long and as thick as a thigh!

The positions of hunter and prey have been reversed!

[Name] Saury

[Level] Early Awakening

[Bloodline] Late Awakening

[Skills] Water Blade, Rapid Surge.

Pacific saury is a type of saury marine mammal. It is said to be named Pacific saury because its breeding season is in autumn.

Don't underestimate the food at these barbecue stalls. When these creatures evolve into sea monsters that are a full meter long, their terrifying nature immediately becomes apparent!

Among those of the same level, usually no other sea beast dares to provoke them!

Pacific saury, as its name suggests, has a long and slender body, resembling a long knife.

After it evolved into a sea monster, the scales and fins on its body immediately became extremely sharp, like tiny serrations.

When it flies rapidly toward you, it is no different from a throwing knife!

If it hits, the result will be skin torn and flesh torn apart!

If you accidentally cut your limbs or neck, the consequences will likely be even more dire!

What's most frightening is that saury are social creatures!

Imagine a swarm of flying knives hurtling towards you like a whirlwind; that scene is absolutely terrifying!

At this moment, Ke Zixuan and Zhang Mingwan were being besieged by a group of saury sea monsters in the basin.

This group of saury numbered nearly 30, each at the early stage of awakening level. They were like sharp, gleaming silver swords, swinging them around and viciously slashing at the two of them, making continuous clanging sounds!

The surrounding seaweed and algae are as fragile as paper in front of these saury, turning into various grass clippings and algae strands that fly around in the seawater.

Various types of grass and soil were overturned by the attacks of these saury, exposing the red soil underneath and stirring up the surrounding seawater into turbidity.

Facing attacks from numerous saury, Ke Zixuan's pet beast, [Gem Starfish], is fighting valiantly.

[Name] Gem Starfish

[Level] Mid-Awakening

[Bloodline] Elite Late Stage

[Skills] Water Gun, High-Speed ​​Spin, Metal Hardening

The gem starfish is about one meter tall and its appearance is made up of two overlapping pentagrams, with an octagonal red gem in the middle of its body.

The gem starfish spun and flew rapidly around Ke Zixuan, using its metal hardening skill to block all the close-range attacks from the saury.

However, there were simply too many saury sea monsters. Only the mid-awakening gem starfish tried to save the day, but it was still insufficient and they were exhausted.

Zhang Mingwan's situation was even worse; her pet was a green thorny vine.

In yesterday's battle, Zhang Mingwan's thorny vines performed well. She used the thorny vines to bind the sea beast, and then the gem starfish took the opportunity to attack. This combination was simply invincible.

However, today, facing this saury and sea beast swarm, Zhang Mingwan's pet beast's weakness was immediately exposed!

The thorn vine is a plant-type creature, while the saury is a metal-type creature. Under the attack of the saury, the thorn vine's flexible and unyielding body is like solid ice meeting the scorching sun, unable to withstand it and quickly melting away!

This is also why Zhang Mingwan frantically cried for help!

Today is only the second day of practical training, and she really doesn't want to be eliminated like this!

As she watched helplessly as her pet beast was attacked by the saury sea monsters, its vines being dismembered and shredded one by one, Zhang Mingwan's face contorted in pain. She had no choice but to take out the protective shell given to her by the school.

Just by inputting a wisp of spiritual energy into the shell, this protective shell will transform into a shield to protect it, but activating the protective shell also means that she is eliminated!

The intense fighting in the basin, along with Zhang Mingwan's cries for help, attracted the attention of several students at the edge of the basin.

However, these people were clearly not from Class 3 of Senior Three, and there were 30 early-stage awakened saury in front of them, which was a bit beyond their strength.

Seeing that these people seemed unwilling to help, Zhang Mingwan shouted, "As long as they are willing to save me, I will do anything."

That's a strong will to survive.

Nangong Yan, who rushed over in a hurry, also changed his expression when he saw the 30 saury in the field!

His tentacle shrimp could only handle four or five saury sea monsters at most at a time, plus Jiang Chen's fishing cat, that would be ten.

There are simply too many of them in the basin right now. If the two of them act rashly, they will not only fail to save Zhang Mingwan, but they may also get themselves killed.

"What...what do we do now?" Nangong Yan looked at Zhang Mingwan below, who was struggling to hold on and screaming in terror, and asked anxiously, scratching his head and cheeks.

Jiang Chen also frowned, as the situation below the basin in front of him was becoming increasingly dire.

Zhang Mingwan was struggling to cope, and so was Ke Zixuan.

Ke Zixuan's pet, Gem Starfish, has a strong sea beast bloodline and is of elite level, which is one level higher than Xiao Jiu's awakened level.

The battle on the field at this moment also demonstrated her strength; Ke Zixuan's pet beast had no problem dealing with the attacks of seven or eight saury at once.

However, at this moment, she was attacked not by seven or eight heads, but by a full dozen or so.

However, one can imagine that when Zhang Mingwan uses the Guardian Shell, the saury attacking Zhang Mingwan will lose their target and immediately swarm towards Ke Zixuan!

This is a chain reaction!

The two of them will most likely meet their end here!
