Beast Taming: Starting From Zero

Chapter 479: Simple ways to cope

Arrogant Poison Star, a High-level Pet with dual Poison System and Superpower System attributes, can absorb pollutants from the atmosphere, using contaminated air and poisonous gas as nutrition. The toxins accumulated in its body will leak poisonous gas to the outside world at any time with speech or breathing. Even a trace amount of this gas, if inhaled, will cause the whole body to become paralyzed and unable to move… Qiao Sang looked seriously at the star-shaped Pet in the distance, which was mostly black and purple.

The reason Zhao Chuanyu could become a popular candidate for this National Campus Pet Beast League, in addition to Scarlet Horned Dragon, Arrogant Poison Star also contributed.

What was most troublesome about this Pet was not its toxins, nor its Superpower, but its Chemical Change Gas characteristic.

In battles, besides skills, strange characteristics also play a very important part. A useful characteristic can often allow a Pet to win a battle even when its strength is inferior to its opponent.

And when a Pet with the Chemical Change Gas characteristic is present, all other Pets’ characteristics on the field will disappear or become ineffective.

In other words, facing Arrogant Poison Star, Lu Bao’s characteristics could not be used anymore.

“qu!”

The whistle blew.

“Arrogant!”

Arrogant Poison Star immediately rose to high altitude, rotating at high speed 360 degrees.

As it rotated, black, cloud-like gases quickly enveloped the battle arena.

“Ice Ke.”

At the same time, Lu Bao looked up, opened her mouth, and called out.

The surrounding temperature suddenly plummeted.

Is she directly using Ice Flower Seal…? Black gas covered the entire sky of the arena, and before any snow appeared, Zhao Chuanyu keenly realized the skill Ice Kexilu was releasing.

He did not issue any commands.

The current situation was still under control.

Arrogant Poison Star did not have skills that could instantly defeat Ice Kexilu, but Arrogant Poison Star’s poisonous gas had been cultivated to the High Level, and could last for a full five minutes in the air.

Once a large amount of highly toxic gas was released, Ice Kexilu would fall into a poisoned state if she inhaled it.

In a poisoned state, it would be difficult for Ice Kexilu to launch an attack, unless she used Healing Light.

Even if Healing Light fully recovered her, the poisonous gas would still be there.

At that time, the newly recovered Ice Kexilu would inhale the highly toxic gas again.

She would have to continue using Healing Light, in a cycle, until her energy was depleted.

He had watched Qiao Sang’s battles, and Ice Kexilu’s Ice Flower Seal did not last for five minutes.

As long as they endured the Ice Flower Seal, while Ice Kexilu was still in a poisoned state, perhaps the battle could end early without waiting for her energy to run out.

Zhao Chuanyu looked at the young girl in the distance and thought to himself that Qiao Sang’s failure to prevent Arrogant Poison Star from releasing so much highly toxic gas was her biggest mistake.

“Arrogant!”

In the high sky, Arrogant Poison Star, who was releasing highly toxic gas, felt a bone-chilling cold. It followed its instinct and quietly lowered its altitude a bit.

Just then, a thick Water Gun came directly at it.

Arrogant Poison Star reacted quickly, and its poisonous gas immediately transformed into a Sludge Attack.

Sludge emitting purple poisonous gas attacked the Water Gun.

“Bang!”

The Water Gun exploded, and water droplets mixed with poisonous gas splashed everywhere.

Ice Kexilu’s speed in using Ice Flower Seal seemed to have increased significantly, but it was just right, the amount of highly toxic gas released by Arrogant Poison Star was also sufficient… Zhao Chuanyu looked up at the thick black gas that had already covered the entire arena, feeling satisfied, and said:

“Light Wall.”

Hearing his Yu Beast Master’s words, Arrogant Poison Star’s eyes glowed blue, and a Light Wall about one meter in diameter instantly formed above its head.

Counting the time, the snow from Ice Flower Seal should be falling now, and the poisonous gas should have been inhaled by Ice Kexilu… Zhao Chuanyu looked at the blue Pet in the distance, and his expression suddenly changed slightly.

What’s going on? Why isn’t Ice Kexilu using Healing Light and still able to move?

He saw water currents swirling around Ice Kexilu, and under the pervasive poisonous gas, she rushed towards Arrogant Poison Star at extreme speed!

“Arrogant!”

Arrogant Poison Star instinctively teleported dozens of meters away, but it was also because of the teleportation that the Light Wall above its head disappeared.

At the same time, large flakes of snow fell through the pervasive black gas.

How could the highly toxic gas be useless against Ice Kexilu? How is this possible? Zhao Chuanyu frowned, feeling the difficulty of the situation, but he wasn’t particularly panicked. He immediately changed his plan mentally.

The highly toxic gas being ineffective might be because the poisonous gas was too dispersed. If so, then switch to a more toxic skill.

As long as Ice Kexilu is hit and her status is weakened, he doesn’t believe that so much poisonous gas will still be useless against her!

Zhao Chuanyu’s gaze was fixed on the blue water pillar still darting around in mid-air, and he said, “Light Wall.”

Arrogant Poison Star’s eyes glowed blue, and a Light Wall condensed above its head.

Snowflakes fell, seemingly carrying some black gas.

Lu Bao, enveloped in water currents, shot towards Arrogant Poison Star.

Just when the “water pillar” was about 5 meters away from Arrogant Poison Star, Zhao Chuanyu’s eyes flashed, and he shouted loudly:

“Poison Liquid Impact!”

This is going to be a mutual destruction… Qiao Sang heard the opponent’s command, looked at Lu Bao, who was enveloped in water currents, and a flicker of worry crossed her eyes, but it quickly turned into trust.

Lu Bao, enveloped in water currents, was like a water pillar cannonball, fiercely charging towards Arrogant Poison Star’s location.

Just as she was about to collide, Arrogant Poison Star suddenly opened its mouth, removed the Light Wall, and sprayed corrosive poison liquid with a black aura.

The toxicity of the poison liquid was so intense that it almost corroded the air.

“Hiss hiss~~~”

Lu Bao collided head-on with the poison liquid. The poison liquid penetrated the outer layer of water and splashed onto Lu Bao’s scales.

The scales immediately emitted black gas, and small areas of corrosive wounds quickly spread around.

Lu Bao gritted her teeth, enduring the pain and forcefully crashing into Arrogant Poison Star.

“Bang!”

With this impact, Arrogant Poison Star directly smashed into the ground, even causing the ground to indent slightly.

Immediately after, Lu Bao also fell to the ground, covered in wounds.

Snowflakes mixed with black gas fell.

Exquisite ice flowers bloomed on Arrogant Poison Star’s body, but due to the continuous interference of black gas, the ice flowers did not bloom particularly quickly.

“Healing Light!”

“Light Wall!”

Qiao Sang and Zhao Chuanyu’s voices rang out simultaneously.

Lu Bao took a deep breath, as if she hadn’t been breathing air at all just now, and then, a blue light emanated from her body.

Zhao Chuanyu keenly saw this scene, and a flash of inspiration struck him, making him suddenly understand.

Damn it! I knew something was off earlier, why so much highly toxic gas was useless against Ice Kexilu. It turns out she was holding her breath the whole time!

Zhao Chuanyu felt frustrated.

He never expected Qiao Sang’s method of dealing with the poisonous gas with Ice Kexilu to be so simple and unadorned!

If that’s the case, if Ice Kexilu heals herself with Healing Light and then continues to hold her breath, wouldn’t Arrogant Poison Star’s previous attack be a huge loss? Would others think it was foolish?

Thinking of this, Zhao Chuanyu’s expression became somewhat unpleasant.
