A lord-level monster with a not-so-smart mind

Ye Chen whispered, “Let’s finish this quickly.”

The King Kong Ape rushed forward, grabbed a monster with one hand, and slammed its massive fist directly onto the monster's head.

The enormous impact directly caved in one of the monster's eyes.

As soon as the Bull Warrior arrived in front of the monster, the monster immediately pounced on him.

The monsters of the Wild Tribe were incredibly agile, belonging to the upper tier of Fourth-Rank races.

It bit fiercely into the Bull Warrior’s wrist, tearing at it wantonly.

The Bull Warrior didn't even frown; he stepped on the monster's tail with one foot, raised his axe, and chopped it onto the monster's neck.

Pfft!

Blood splattered.

The Piggy Dragon and the Beauty Snake chose to deal with one monster.

The Thousand Shadow Whip lashed out at extreme speed, striking a thousand times in just a few seconds.

It dealt a total of 120,000 damage to the monster.

The Flower Fairy flung out vines that wrapped around the monster's body, and at the moment of entanglement, a loud explosion erupted.

The Piggy Dragon first threw fireballs, then used air bullets, and finally delivered a Charge directly onto one of the monsters.

After this combo, the monster's 150,000 health instantly vanished.

The monster that the King Kong Ape was fighting was the first to fall into a critically wounded state.

Ye Chen landed a Great Extinction on the monster, and it died instantly.

After collecting the dropped loot, the six continued forward.

It was already five o'clock in the afternoon; after hunting one more wave of monsters, they could return.

Ye Chen sent a notification to the Blood Asura trio, telling them they could come back.

All three pets said they would return after hunting this wave of monsters.

Twenty minutes later, the three little ones successively returned to Ye Chen's side; they were all very careful and brought back the spoils, original cores, and heart cores.

Throughout the day, the Blood Asura hunted five LV24 monsters and three LV25 monsters.

A total of 35,000 experience points were gained.

Dark Ji hunted four LV23 monsters and two LV24 monsters.

A total of 20,000 experience points were gained.

The lowest-level Alchemist hunted about the same as Dark Ji: four LV23 monsters and one LV24 monster.

A total of 16,000 experience points were gained.

The Alchemist was the smartest of the three because its innate skill was area damage, so it always chose to attack group targets.

Dark Ji was suitable for sneak attacks, catching lone monsters, but since there were few lone monsters now, it wasted time.

The Blood Asura, however, was different; it hunted whatever it saw, never backing down.

After all, the Blood Asura was now LV28, equipped with the Blood God Scythe and Golden Armor. In this Green Expo Garden, there was no monster that could match it. With Ten Shadow Slash, it wouldn't flinch even when facing multiple monsters.

The Blood Asura said smugly, “It seems I’m the one who hunted the most monsters, haha!”

Dark Ji pouted, while the Alchemist showed a helpless smile.

The Piggy Dragon floated beside the Blood Asura, grunting continuously.

“Thank you for the compliment!” the Blood Asura patted the Piggy Dragon’s head.

The Blood Asura, Dark Ji, and the Alchemist—the three of them were noticeably much larger in size.

Could it be that their body size grows a bit with each level up?

Currently, the Blood Asura was the tallest among the three little ones.

Lin Nuoyi smiled from the side, “All three of them have grown so beautiful.”

The Blood Asura trio smiled shyly.

But inwardly, they were very happy.

After all, they were all girls; who doesn't like being praised?

Roar!

“Who dares trespass on my territory!” A voice suddenly rang out.

The group looked over and saw a figure standing before them.

This figure was tall and thin, standing a full three meters three, but its build was very slender, looking almost like the nearby trees.

Its face also appeared unusually gaunt.

Zhu Qiang said in surprise, “This guy, he looks so much like Guide Ge? So weak!”

Ma Zha Hu

Level: LV27

Rank: Lord

Attribute: Fire

Combat Power: 29900

Health: 540000

Race: Ghost Shadow Clan

“So it's a Lord-level Monster. It seems this guy is the boss here,” Zhu Qiang said.

Ma Zha Hu laughed, “Boss? I’m not! The boss here is Lord Gust, I’m just the regional leader!”

Ye Chen frowned and said, “You’re a Lord-level, why didn’t I see you during your monster siege last time?”

Ma Zha Hu snorted coldly, “Back then, I was only Elite-level, not yet Lord-level. I only recently advanced to Lord-level! Isn’t it normal that you haven’t seen me?”

Monsters do indeed advance in rank; it requires vitality and also luck.

From Ma Zha Hu’s words just now, it could be deduced that this guy wasn't very smart.

Whatever was asked, it answered directly; it must have just advanced not long ago, and its intelligence hadn't caught up yet.

Ye Chen smiled, “So that’s how it is. Did you come out to kill us?”

To their surprise, Ma Zha Hu waved its hand and said, “No, no, no, I just came out to show off my status, but speaking of which, why aren’t you afraid when you see me? Don’t my appearance and my rank scare you? Those people before, when they saw me and learned I was Lord-level, they ran away immediately. Why aren’t you afraid?”

Ma Zha Hu looked at Ye Chen and the others with a serious expression.

Uh.

Zhu Qiang: “…”

Ma Zha Hu did indeed have a good appearance, and its looks were quite terrifying. The people it mentioned who ran away scared were likely low-level Pet Masters. Low-level Pet Masters would indeed turn and flee when they saw a LV27 Lord-level Monster, as they were certainly no match and would have to escape.

The Blood Asura, however, laughed heartily, “Run? Why would we run? Let me tell you, I’ve killed several like you! You’re the one who should be running!”

Ma Zha Hu then remembered to check the Blood Asura's level, and upon seeing LV28, it was instantly startled.

“I have something to do; I’ll take my leave first!” With that, Ma Zha Hu turned and ran.
