Chapter 79 - The Heart of the Trainer
The lightning ball was already in front of Ah Li. There was no time for Ah Li to dodge. Ah Li was hit and sent flying.
Fortunately, Ah Li did not faint. Instead, it immediately woke up.
At this time, Ah Li’s body seemed to have been set on fire. Flames kept flashing behind its back.
Looking at Ah Li’s appearance, the chestnut ball man smiled and said, “From now on, your pet will receive continuous fire damage.”
As soon as he said that, he was stunned again.
The fire on Ah Li’s body had been extinguished!
Not only did the special effect of the attack not take place, but the damage that Ah Li received seemed to be automatically healed. The chestnut ball man muttered to himself in confusion, “How could it be? This move has a miraculous effect on thunder-type pets!”
Although Fang Yuan did not know what had happened, he said, “The hit rate of thunder-type damage to the same kind may not be 100%. Don’t think that you can do whatever you want just because your level is high.”
The chestnut ball man looked at Fang Yuan and said, “You don’t seem to understand the power of that move.”
After saying this, the chestnut ball with the crown rose into the air again. His expression showed that he did not believe what was happening before his eyes.
He launched another fireball attack. This time, it was even more exaggerating. It was totally ineffective.
The chestnut ball man said with a cold face, “Why? It’s understandable that lightning damage is ineffective, but why is the fire damage ineffective?”
Fang Yuan looked at Ah Li, who was baring its fangs and brandishing its claws, he suddenly realized, “It’s due to spirit stone and thunderbird feather. Thunderbird feather reduces lightning damage, spirit stone reduces fire damage. Together with Ah Li’s own resistance, it doesn’t have any other damage except some slight physical damage!”
After Fang Yuan’s speculation, his confidence was rekindled. He pretended to be fine and said, “Ah Li, use your sharp claws to attack!”
However, the chestnut ball man was obviously not in the right state. He looked at Ah Li with a confused expression, as if he was mumbling something to himself.
Fang Yuan found it funny. No matter how high his level and grade was, [ lightning crackle ] could not cause any damage to Ah Li.
After all, Ah Li had the protection of [ thunderbird feather ] and [ fire soul stone ] . These were not things that ordinary people could come into contact with.
Since he was not as skilled as Ah Li, he could not blame anyone else.
Ah Li’s sharp claws and the charm effect made it easy for it to scratch the platinum chestnut ball.
The chestnut ball also changed its attack style. It no longer accumulated lightning, but pounced on Ah Li as if it wanted to use its huge body to crush it.
“Ah Li, let him experience the feeling of being penetrated by lightning!”
Ah Li took advantage of the moment when chestnut ball was completely unprepared to unleash its full power. The effect was outstanding.
On the other side, chestnut ball was already exhausted. No matter how its trainer controlled it, it would be ineffective.
Could it be that the opponent’s pet could use mind control?
The chestnut ball was shocked, but the moment this thought appeared, their battle was already nearing its end.
Ah Li opened its mouth, and a bolt of lightning shot out from her mouth. The target was obviously the chestnut ball’s eyes!
The chestnut ball’s entire body was covered in thorns and had a hard outer shell, but its eyes were too big, making it the best living target!
Fang Yuan heaved a sigh of relief after the final fatal blow.
Seeing the chestnut ball fall, its trainer also knelt down.
He smiled at Ah Li, who was in the ring. Such a powerful pet beast, yet the director casually threw it away. He was really blind. It seemed that Ah Li was not an ordinary pet beast at all. Even the way it evolved was fundamentally different from other pet beasts.
As long as it reached platinum grade, its strength would be beyond imagination.
After calming down, Fang Yuan turned to look at chestnut ball. He said with self-reproach, “It’s really a pity. As I’m too weak, I can’t avenge my clansmen.”
Hearing his words, Fang Yuan’s gaze fell on the chestnut ball again.
The reason why they killed the chestnut ball so wantonly was partly to complete the mission, and partly because they felt that the pet beasts in the arcane realm had to get used to the survival principle of survival of the fittest.
But in fact, they were also living beings.
As soon as this thought appeared, Fang Yuan’s heart also became heavy.
Looking at him kneeling on the ground and crying in pain, Fang Yuan could not say a word. His desire to win had all been thrown to the back of his mind.
Fang Yuan clenched his hands, feeling pity for him.
At this moment, Lei Lin appeared.
She deliberately walked towards the chestnut ball man and looked at him with deep and firm eyes. Then, she stretched out her hand and chanted an incantation to the sky.
In an instant, the chestnut ball that was killed by Ah Li for the past few days seemed to have been reborn.
“Challenging the arcane realm is a fair competition for ability, but we are also willing to do our best to help every righteous trainer” Lei Lin said in standard commentary language.
“They……” Fang Yuan asked unconsciously, “Do they really exist?”
Lei Lin shook her head.
Just as Fang Yuan wanted to ask more questions, Lei Lin suddenly disappeared. All that was left was the chestnut balls on the ground, and the chestnut ball man was staring at him.
The chestnut ball man had lost so much face in front of Fang Yuan just now, and now he felt ashamed. However, Fang Yuan didn’t look like a bad person.
He looked up at Fang Yuan and suddenly realized that the reason why Fang Yuan could communicate with so many pet beasts was because he had the heart of a trainer.
Everyone wanted pets, but very few people cared about the thoughts of pets.
The [ heart of the trainer ] was a very vague concept, but only people with such thoughts could challenge the peak of the pet beast.
After understanding, the chestnut ball man shook his head and summoned the chestnut balls back, walking toward Fang Yuan and Ah Li.
Then, he looked at Ah Li.
Without a doubt, Ah Li was the most suitable pet for Fang Yuan.
The chestnut ball man reached out his hand to Ah Li. Fang Yuan wanted to stop him, but he saw through it. The chestnut ball man would not hurt Ah Li, but gave it an ability.
“I have already engraved the lightning fire mark on its body,” said the chestnut ball man. “You can re-observe its skills.”
Fang Yuan took a look at chestnut ball man and began to check Ah Li’s attributes. The other attributes did not change, but there was an additional “lightning fire” skill in the skill pane.
[ Check skill: Lightning fire ]
[ Description: Lightning fire is a special permanent skill. When a pet beast uses the lightning skill to cause damage, it will generate a ball of fire on the opponent’s body. Every second, the opponent will deal 50% of the damage from this attack. Duration: one minute ]
Fang Yuan was so shocked that he took a deep breath. This was an unimaginable powerful support skill for any thunder-type pet beast. It was equivalent to a skill that could deal 30 times the amount of damage. It just needed some time. With Ah Li’s dodging skill, it was simply perfect.
The chestnut ball man said, “Thank you for the opportunity to fight with you. You are an excellent trainer. I have to go back and cultivate well. The next time I see you, I will not lose again.”
Fang Yuan nodded.
After the chestnut ball man disappeared, Fang Yuan began to confirm his points through the mission blueprint. He eliminated 10,000 chestnut balls and added 100 times the points, obtaining 50,000 points in one go.
He had already gathered enough points to exchange for Pick’s and Ah Li’s evolution materials.
There were still two days left on the map. He made another decision in his heart.
