Chapter 118: Battle Companion
The Stormhawk landed on the Gray-Toothed Rabbit’s corpse. With Lugh’s permission, it began to devour the rabbit’s flesh and blood.
Pet Divine Beasts would also feel hunger.
However, when the Pet Divine Beasts were in tattoo form and attached to Beast Masters, or when they entered the Beast Master Space, the consumption would be greatly reduced!
“Peck here!”
Lugh pointed at the Gray-Toothed Rabbit’s head.
The Stormhawk pecked twice with its sharp beak, piercing through the Gray-Toothed Rabbit’s head and taking out a gray crystal core.
Strictly speaking, this was the Stormhawk’s second battle. It still didn’t know the location of the Fierce Beast’s crystal core, and needed him, a Beast Master, to teach it.
“Give me the crystal core!”
The Stormhawk didn’t linger. It preferred a wind-attribute crystal core. It opened its mouth, and the crystal core fell into Lugh’s hands.
After the Stormhawk had eaten its fill, there was not much left of the Gray-Toothed Rabbit.
Even if it had not been bitten by the Stormhawk, Lugh did not want to bring it along.
The rabbit that was half the height of a human instantly made him lose the idea of eating the rabbit’s head!
Lugh brought the Stormhawk along and continued to hunt down Low-Grade Fierce Beasts nearby!
[Ding! Your Pet Stormhawk has killed a Low-Grade Black Iron Gray-Toothed Rabbit. EXP: 3!]
[Ding! Your Pet Stormhawk has killed a Medium-Grade Black Iron Gray-Toothed Rabbit. EXP: 10!]
[Ding! Your Pet Stormhawk has killed a Low-Grade Black Iron Black Plague Rat. EXP: 3!]
[Ding! Your Pet Stormhawk has killed a Low-Grade Black Iron Demonized Cockroach. EXP: 3!]
“…”
The Stormhawk soared into the sky and looked down at the earth.
Its sharp eyes scanned the earth. With the blessing of the Eagle Eye, almost no prey on the ground could escape its eyes!
Once it was stared at by the Stormhawk, the prey would have to face the Stormhawk’s lightning-fast attack and the bombardment of countless wind blades!
In Lugh’s eyes, the Stormhawk was a cannon that could fly and move quickly!
As he had killed too many Fierce Beasts, Lugh had no choice but to give up the dead bodies of the Fierce Beasts and take away the crystal cores instead!
[Ding! Your Pet Stormhawk has killed a High-Grade Black Iron Gray-Toothed Rabbit. EXP: 30!]
After killing the Gray-Toothed Rabbit, Lugh looked at the figure on the hillside in the distance and waved at the figure. The figure also waved at Lugh and then disappeared.
Lugh knew that it was definitely the hands of their teacher.
Looking at the sky, the sun was setting. Lugh knew that it was about time for him to go back!
This Black Iron High-Grade Gray-Toothed Rabbit was about 200 kilograms. Lugh grabbed its fur and forcefully carried it onto his shoulder.
After his body was strengthened twice, Lugh’s strength had already surpassed that of an ordinary adult.
It was just that… the road back was a little too far!
He was too excited from the battle!
Just as Lugh took a few steps forward, he suddenly felt his body lighten!
He raised his head and saw the Stormhawk grabbing the Gray-Toothed Rabbit’s corpse. Its claws dug into the corpse and flapped its wings, lightening Lugh’s burden!
“This fellow!”
His heart felt warm and touched!
In the school, the teachers had repeatedly taught him that pets weren’t tools, but loyal battle companions worthy of Beast Masters’ life-and-death trust. Lugh could finally understand now!
In the garrison area, as the sky turned dark, a group of students began to rush back.
Since it was the first day of the actual combat class, Karenina and the three people in charge of the actual combat class stood at the entrance of the garrison and began to talk softly.
Karenina asked, “What do you think those kids can bring back as prey?”
Sask took a puff of his cigarette and smiled with narrowed eyes. “They might not be able to bring back anything…”
The smile on Karenina’s face froze!
Rawls did not spoil Karenina’s mood. He said, “That seven-man team might be able to bring back a Mid-Grade Black Iron beast corpse!”
“Someone’s back!”
Karenina saw Nana’s three-man team bring back a Gray-Toothed Rabbit that was half the height of a man. Judging from its size, it should be a Low-Grade Black Iron beast, and a smile appeared on her face.
It was the first battle for three rookie Beast Masters. It was already pretty good for them to be able to bring back a Fierce Beast without getting injured, even if it was only a Low-Grade Black Iron beast!
“Hello, Teacher!”
“It’s Nana! Not bad! Not bad! Keep up the good work!”
“I’ll keep up the good work!”
Although Nana knew how black-bellied Karenina was, they had been getting along quite well recently.
After Nana’s team returned, the other teams also returned one after another.
Those who could return first had some prey in their hands, and most of them were Low-Grade Black Iron beasts.
The seven-man team brought back a Medium-Grade Black Iron Black Plague Rat. Although two of the students were injured, it still shocked the entire class.
Rawls asked, “Teacher Karenina, are all the students in Class One here?”
Sask lit another cigarette and looked at the sky. “I remember, there should be another one! The one with a big black bird!”
A big black bird?
Katarina glanced at Sask with her confused eyes. “Yes, Lugh is not back yet. He should be the strongest!”
In the supermarket, the students put their spoils of war on the counter one by one.
“I want a quilt!”
“I want to take a bath!”
“I want to eat!”
“…”
The supermarket cashier smiled and said, “Take your time, one by one!”
“Thank you for your patronage! A bed sheet needs a Low-Grade Fierce Beast core!”
“Thank you for your patronage! There is a bathroom behind the supermarket. A Low-Grade Fierce Beast core can be exchanged for five bath coupons. There is hot water and shower gel!”
“Thank you for your patronage! Our supermarket only has fast food. A Low-Grade Fierce Beast core can be exchanged for ten barrels of instant noodles and five kilograms of bread!”
“Fierce Beast core crystal and Fierce Beast corpse can be used separately. The value of the core crystal and the intact corpse is the same!”
“…”
“F*ck, is your supermarket a black shop?”
“I’ve never seen anyone so black!”
“A Fierce Beast corpse weighs 100 kilograms. Tell me, it can only be exchanged for five kilograms of bread. Why don’t you rob us?”
“…”
Facing these doubts, the cashier of the supermarket didn’t care at all.
They had always run a black shop!
However, they couldn’t tear off the cover that they should have.
Therefore, the cashier revealed an extremely standard professional smile. “If you are not satisfied with the pricing of our supermarket, you can not come here to spend money!”
