158: You forced me to take it seriously.

The Consultant didn't intend for Slime to use the ultimate skill it learned from the Haiya Emperor.

This wasn't to hold back.

Rather, the Consultant wanted to try and have Slime imitate the Mudmire Fish's move using its own water element.

And in fact, Slime did it!

After a tremor, its body swelled slightly, then rapidly contracted!

A stream of water mixed with mud surged out, forming a high-pressure water column that aggressively slammed into the Firepower Bird!

The Haiya Emperor's crystal core had immense potential, bringing Slime far more than a small improvement!

This muddy stream was far more powerful than when the Mudmire Fish used it, practically like a water cannon!

Bang!

The Firepower Bird couldn't dodge in time and was hit by the swift and powerful muddy stream!

A large amount of water instantly extinguished the remaining flames on its body, leaving it in an exhausted state!

Ruby hadn't even reacted yet, and the second magical beast had already fallen!

He looked at the Consultant, his eyes filled with frustration and unwillingness!

How could this be?!

As one of the many Beast Tamers in the Silver Moon Forest, he was familiar with the people who frequented this area.

Yet now, he was being pushed to such a state by an unfamiliar Beast Tamer.

And that Beast Tamer had only sent out one Slime, not even deploying the black snake by his side!

To Ruby, this felt like a blatant mockery!

"Forest Lizard, go!"

Ruby shouted to his last magical beast.

This Forest Lizard was the same level as the other two, but its temperament was clearly more stable!

Upon hearing Ruby's command, it didn't foolishly charge forward like the Firepower Bird earlier. Instead, it pushed off with its feet and leaped onto a tree in the forest.

Then, after a few flashes of its figure, it actually disappeared into the foliage!

Ambush, accumulate power, then use Razor Leaf for harassment, seeking an opportunity!

This was the strategy Ruby had arranged for the Forest Lizard.

Although the Consultant's Slime was powerful, the Consultant's experience as a Beast Tamer seemed somewhat lacking.

He planned to use his skilled Beast Taming experience to turn the tide of the battle back in his favor!

Seeing this, the Consultant quickly calmed himself and said soberly:

"Duen Dwen, be on guard!"

Slime's reconnaissance ability wasn't strong, and the Consultant couldn't see the Forest Lizard's position, so he could only give this warning.

But just as he finished speaking, a sound came from the nearby woods.

Swish, swish, swish!

Several faint rustling sounds tore through the air!

The Consultant's pupils instantly contracted as he noticed green leaves flying in from several directions!

These green leaves were clearly just plucked from trees, but each leaf was imbued with wood-attribute magic power!

As sharp as flying knives, they shimmered with cold light under the dappled sunlight!

The Forest Lizard's attack! It had arrived!

It was like an assassin hiding in the forest; its first move was a fierce killing blow!

But the moment the Consultant noticed those Razor Leaves, Slime had already reacted automatically!

"Gurgle!"

Slime let out a soft sound, its body rapidly shrinking as it activated its Liquefaction ability again, intending to dodge these Razor Leaves!

But at the same time, a system prompt appeared before the Consultant's eyes... [Forest Lizard absorbed sunlight!]

Seeing this line of text, the Consultant paused slightly, then immediately reacted!

Oh no, that Forest Lizard wasn't just using flying leaves for a sneak attack; it was also accumulating some powerful attack!

However, it was already too late to warn it now!

At this instant, Ruby's eyes lit up, and he shouted loudly:

"Forest Lizard, now! Solar Beam!"

As soon as his voice fell, a black shadow suddenly appeared in the forest!

It was the Forest Lizard that had just disappeared into the jungle, appearing swiftly in the air like a flying dragon with outstretched wings!

And its wings behind it were translucent and willow-shaped!

Sunlight transformed into scorching rays, heading towards the Slime that had just turned into liquid!

The Consultant's heart tightened!

This was clearly the Forest Lizard's ultimate skill, and its power even exceeded the Consultant's imagination!

But when Ruby saw it, a hint of joy appeared on his brow, and a slight curve formed at the corner of his mouth!

The situation was urgent, and to prevent Slime from getting hurt, the Consultant subconsciously used Beast Taming Power!

A green glow appeared on his body, and at the same time, the same light appeared on Slime's body!

Duen Dwen, Mimic Dragon Transformation!

At this moment, the Consultant suddenly felt an unprecedented shared consciousness with Slime!

He didn't even speak; the moment he thought of a countermeasure, Slime's color changed to crimson!

In an instant, a red mist exploded, enveloping Slime's body!

Ruby, who had never seen such a sight, was immediately stunned.

However, the Solar Beam also shot into the crimson mist at the same time!

The scorching heat even distorted the air!

"It succeeded!"

Ruby was ecstatic and couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice.

But the next moment, his smile froze on his face!

"Owoo!"

With a sound like a wolf's howl, an ugly, terrifying blood wolf rushed out of the smoke unharmed!

That was Slime, having entered its Dragon Transformation state!

"What... what is this thing?!"

A hint of fear entered Ruby's tone.

The Forest Lizard in mid-air also paused.

But it was too late to dodge!

Slime, transformed into its gore magala form, soared into the sky with agile movements, easily grabbing the Forest Lizard's wing with one claw, then biting down!

Its pale fangs pierced through the Forest Lizard's wing.

Then, Slime shook its head, slamming the Forest Lizard's body heavily onto the ground!

Slime in its Dragon Transformation state had an extremely strong desire to attack, and its movements could even be described as incredibly brutal!

It showed no intention of stopping, kicking off with its four claws in mid-air!

Despite having no leverage, it easily changed direction, speeding towards the utterly defenseless Forest Lizard!

Just as the Forest Lizard was about to be torn to shreds by Slime in its Dragon Transformation state, a figure lunged forward!

It was Ruby, who had just been stunned with fright!

His movements were stumbling and clumsy, and the bewilderment on his face hadn't even disappeared, but his body had instinctively pounced onto the Forest Lizard, intending to protect his Soul Beast with his flesh and blood!

"Duen Dwen, stop!"

The Consultant frowned, once again using Beast Taming Power to forcefully halt Slime's killing blow.

At the same time, he made it release its Mimic Dragon Transformation form, turning back into a round, plump shape.

"Phew..."

The Consultant let out a slight sigh of relief before looking back at the Forest Lizard and Ruby.

He felt a slight surprise in his heart.

Since his transmigration, the attitude towards magical beasts in Dragon County, the school, and the Bounty Guild was to kill them if possible.

But this person actually protected a magical beast, regardless of his own life.

Are all Beast Tamers in this world like this?
