46: Dinosaur World Dungeon (Part 2)

Hong Yuantai rubbed his ears, suspecting he had misheard.

Gu Shaoqiang, however, flew into a rage, forcefully kicking a Plateosaurus off the cliff while cursing loudly.

"Old Lin, no, wait, Lin Feiyu, was that even human language you just spoke?"

"Xiao Le just helped you successfully defend the line; not only are you not thinking of repaying him, but you're also thinking of poaching his Little Dog and Little Black Snake."

"Can you try acting like a human?"

Lin Feiyu's mouth twitched. He knew Gu Shaoqiang's impulsive nature and his hatred for evil; even the principal was wary of him.

Not wanting to argue with him, he simply beckoned, "Come here."

"I'll come, I'll come. You think you can coerce me?"

Gu Shaoqiang either hacked to death or kicked away the surrounding dinosaurs, and taking advantage of the gap, he dashed rapidly toward Xu Le's defensive line.

Just as he was about to sternly question him, he saw the empty defensive line, where over a dozen Little Dog Clones were so bored they were fighting over prey, actually tearing a sparrow-sized bird-dinosaur into seven or eight pieces.

The Little Dog's main body was even sleeping under the Little Peach Tree.

This, this is just too damn idle.

Thinking of how he was tired like a dog—no, he was ten thousand times more tired than a dog—while over here, they were almost pouring tea and playing mahjong.

Is this fair?

Is this justice?

Can this Little Dog share a few of its Clones with me?

He asked the last sentence somewhat awkwardly.

The Little Dog perked up its ears, checking Xu Le's expression. Seeing him nod, it split off ten Clones to follow him.

Under the buff of the Little Peach Tree's "spirit Domain," its mana recovery speed was four times the original rate; three minutes was enough for it to recover a large chunk of mana and summon new Clones to "continue the body."

Hong Yuantai was beyond furious when he saw Gu Shaoqiang leading a group of Little Dog Clones back.

Isn't this bullying his student!

Two minutes later, he also brought a group of Little Dog Clones to defend the line together.

Bai Yuru crept over.

For so long, she hadn't helped restore a single bit of health or mana.

The three old teammates were exceptionally fierce today; the recovery speed of their health and mana bars was terrifying.

"Your three contracted beasts are all so strong; they're even more powerful than average SSS-Rank pet beasts."

Xu Le grinned.

To be fair, his pet beasts were comparable to the strongest Dragon Clan.

Compared to the last Devilish Dragon, although the Little Black Snake didn't have the god-tier Skill for bullying weaklings—Corrosive Dragon Flame—its innate damage reduction was higher, and the "Elephant Swallowing" Skill was a god-tier Skill that could attack, tank, and control.

The only drawback was that it was a bit lackluster in group battles.

Wait, why three?

As if guessing his thoughts, Bai Yuru's gaze inadvertently glanced at the Little Peach Tree.

Although it didn't say it directly, the Little Peach Tree was very angry.

Rational as it was, it realized it immediately.

It was so angry its branches and leaves were swaying wildly; if it weren't truly reluctant to lose its peach leaves, it would have probably unleashed Skills like "Flying Leaves" and "Falling Flowers" recklessly.

Just as Xu Le was about to soothe it, Bai Yuru exclaimed in sudden realization: "Wait, this quadruple health and mana recovery is buffed by this little guy?"

Her voice trembled slightly, as if she were so excited she was about to cry.

The Little Peach Tree instantly turned its sorrow into joy, its leaves shivering, and a faint, lingering fragrance wafted out.

Xu Le: As expected, Zhang Wuji's mother was right; the more beautiful a woman is, the more she loves to lie, even lying to trees.

He had been deceived before too, but her transition was too stiff; only the Little Peach Tree hadn't realized it, or perhaps it was a case of being too close to the situation.

"Awoo..."

Through the Mind Link, the Little Dog sent a feeling of grievance.

Xu Le looked over.

Its mana was already nearing half.

Because the "Call Friends and Companions" Skill could only last for 3 minutes, it needed to split off nearly 50 Clones every three minutes, and its mana expenditure exceeded its income.

Xu Le turned his gaze to Bai Yuru for help.

Bai Yuru was overjoyed when she heard this; she had been "standing in timeout" the whole time and could finally move.

She hurriedly cast her Skill to restore the Little Dog's mana.

...

Time passed rapidly.

An hour passed.

The cliffs on all four sides were finally cleared.

Xu Le also gained a massive amount of experience points, and his Rank soared.

[Rank] 35 (5680 / 7000000)

Each Rank required millions of experience points; after reaching Rank 30, the difficulty of leveling up became even greater.

It was unimaginable what life would be like after reaching Rank 60; every time one leveled up, it would increase by ten million experience points.

The group unanimously decided that Hong Yuantai would be responsible for staying on the mountaintop to observe and avoid sneak attacks from the dinosaur legion.

They, on the other hand, descended to the mountainside to attack tall species like the Diplodocus.

Bang!

A dense barrage of attacks bombarded the nearest head.

Sword Qi, Mental Shock, heavy blade slashes, and various Skills were smashed out; in just one minute, the Diplodocus couldn't hold on and collapsed to the ground.

[Experience + 450000] (after being split equally among 5 people)

The group aimed at another Diplodocus.

However, most of their Skills were still on cooldown.

Xu Le could only cast Earth Spike.

The Diplodocus felt a pain in its abdomen, let out a miserable shriek, and then it was gone.

The descending health bar barely disappeared.

As for direct slashes and other ordinary attacks, although they weren't low, the target wasn't dead and knew how to run away.

The effort of just over a minute ago directly turned into nothingness.

"Roar!"

An angry, long-drawn-out sound resonated, leaving Xu Le and the others' ears buzzing.

The dinosaurs at the foot of the mountain immediately retreated, fleeing toward the distance.

Xu Le hurriedly ordered the Little Yellow Chicken to chase them and spit fireballs, but those dinosaurs didn't turn back at all, letting the fireballs bombard them.

Hong Yuantai slid down from the platform: "No need to chase, it's useless. Even if we kill a group, under the orders of the Tyrannosaurus Rex Lord, no dinosaur will stay behind."

"Do we have to fight head-on later?" Xu Le counted; there were at least over three hundred dinosaurs left, all of the mighty and imposing type; fighting head-on would definitely lead to more losses than wins.

"We can still use guerrilla warfare!" Hong Yuantai sighed. "After being called away by the Tyrannosaurus Rex Lord, they will never come over no matter what."

The group began to pursue.

Sure enough, the whole way was marked by traces of crushed forest; not even half a dinosaur could be seen.

They chased all the way to a vast waterside before they finally saw traces of the dinosaur herd.

The Tyrannosaurus Rex Lord stood in the innermost part, 35 meters long, exactly like a gray wall.

If one were to take a tail swipe from this, they would probably lose half their life if they didn't die.

Divine Eye activated, and the Tyrannosaurus Rex Lord's attributes popped up.

[Ancient Tyrannosaurus Rex]

[Rank] 60

[Health] 620000 / 620000

[mana] 80000 / 80000

[Strength] 4800

[Agility] 2800

[Physique] 5600

[spirit] 2200

[Talent] Ancient Overlord, Infinite Strength

[Skill] Command Beasts, Bash, Furious Pounce, Enraged Tail Swipe, Berserk Bite, Violent Stomp, Blood Bravery, Devour

A gorgeous panel.

The four-dimensional attributes alone were suffocating.

Although the damage reduction couldn't compare to the Devilish Dragon, it still had a 50% reduction.

The only good news was that it was purely physical damage and had no magical Skills.

If it added something like Dragon Breath, they could just retire from the dungeon early.

Wait!

Xu Le suddenly felt something was wrong.

He carefully examined the attribute panel again and finally discovered the peculiarity.

This Tyrannosaurus Rex Lord was actually not contaminated by Demonic Qi Contamination.

To be precise, it wasn't just the Tyrannosaurus Rex; all the dinosaurs were not contaminated.
