Chapter 55 - 48 Shocked Cat_2
This kid... something's off!
Meanwhile, Manager Ying, who was sitting on the unfinished building, nodded in satisfaction as she watched their initial exchange.
"This Lu Ran has got something, but it's also because he was on his guard in advance."
"Now, let's see if he can handle an undead pet beast."
At this moment, the gaunt young man had already noticed that Lu Ran was no ordinary case; the guy was definitely prepared.
Otherwise, the strike just now not only would have caught a novice beast trainer off guard but even some higher-level beast trainers without their guard up could have been hit. What normal novice carries a sword with them, and reacts that quickly!
Due to his uncertainty about Lu Ran's background, he didn't dare to let his hidden undead pet beast rashly attack. He activated Black Card's teleportation feature, planning to slip away in 10 seconds and made sure his pet beast was protecting him well.
Extremely cautious!
"Who exactly are you!"
The gaunt young man was a bit panicked by now, not forgetting to ask before slipping away. Could it be that he had exposed himself?
"Just a passerby who punishes evil and promotes good!" Lu Ran looked at him calmly, a summoning formation quickly appeared in front of him, and this move shocked the gaunt young man even more.
That lizard... wasn't the other party's pet beast!
At this moment, the gaunt young man felt like he was facing a formidable enemy. But as Lu Ran's pet beast was summoned, a Husky that looked utterly ordinary and seemed to have undergone no special evolution appeared, the gaunt young man was stunned again.
"Damn, just a Husky below level 10, who the hell are you trying to fool, you scared the hell out of me."
"Had I known, I wouldn't have teleported away."
The saying goes, from great fluctuations come great turmoil; the sight of Lu Ran summoning just a Husky after all that ruse made the young man swear out loud.
He had actually been scared stiff.
However, seeing that he still had a few seconds of teleportation time, his frustration grew.
"Kid, you just wait..." As he was about to be teleported away, the necromancer made a fierce declaration.
But two seconds later, his mood rolled over once again...
Because... the teleportation time had clearly passed, but there seemed to be no sign of it happening to him.
Teleportation failed?
The necromancer's heart was in turmoil again, confused about what had happened; in a very short time, his emotions flipped countless times, and his expression was like being toyed with.
"Woof!" Especially when a seemingly stupid Husky looked at him with eyes of wisdom, seemingly mocking him, it further shattered the necromancer's composure.
"Remember what, do you hold grudges too?" Lu Ran also taunted.
"I'm gonna slaughter you!!!" One twist after another had made the young man's mental state unstable. Without time to figure out what was happening, he finally commanded his hidden undead pet beast to attack.
One of the characteristics of undead pet beasts is their exceptionally strong stealth ability!
Being soul bodies, they can easily pass through walls and become invisible - a factor that makes them extremely difficult to deal with.
At this moment, an Undead Civet Cat appeared out of thin air next to Lu Ran like a ghost, launching an attack at him, with ghost claws ripping through the air.
Not only can it turn invisible, but it can also float!
"Cats again?" n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The one who was also a bit annoyed was Manager Ying on the unfinished building; one reason was her disapproval of the necromancer killing cats to enslave them, and the second was her reluctance to personally witness a cat and dog fight, especially when she was on the dog's side.
"But this undead cat is not simple. It's from a high-level extraordinary race, its level should be at 8, which is higher than that Husky. Lu Ran might not be able to handle it."
"Looks like I might have to step in after all,"
"Necro systems are too much for a novice to handle."
But as swift as words can be, the Undead Spirit Cat's stealth attack had already arrived. Lu Ran gripped the Wind Cutting Sword, slightly startled—this Undead Spirit Cat's concealment and speed seemed to surpass that of the Grass Demon Cat.
Fortunately, Mr. Husky, now by Lu Ran's side, was not the same Mr. Husky from before, and it coldly glanced up into the air.
With a low growl, a wild energy flow encompassed its body, swirling with a gale, and its form vanished from the ground in a mighty leap.
Boom!
The stealth attack of the Undead Spirit Cat failed, and Mr. Husky smacked it away; it fell to the ground like a meteor, letting out a wail akin to a baby's cry.
"Damn, how can this Husky be so fast?" Seeing the failed ambush, the Necromancer got a bit frustrated, but after sensing the state of the Undead Spirit Cat, he relaxed again. The opponent's attack wasn't strong, it was just faster.
He was determined to kill this man and dog.
"Come here," he said menacingly to Lu Ran, while also instructing the Undead Spirit Cat that had just climbed back up. The next moment, the Undead Spirit Cat quickly floated up and flew into the Necromancer's body!
The second trait of an undead pet beast is the ability to possess a Beast Trainer!
It's similar to a ghost possession and fusion, thereby granting both parties greater strength!
"You're dead meat!" In an instant, black mist began emanating from the gaunt young man, his expression growing even more sinister, and he didn't forget to throw in a threat.
Seeing this, Manager Ying from the dilapidated building narrowed her eyes, knowing the critical moment had arrived. The Husky that Lu Ran had trained was not bad, being very skilled in energy flow technique, but limited by race, growth level, and attribute disadvantage, could it still contend with a possessed human using necromancy?
Just when Manager Ying was itching to intervene, her expression suddenly went blank.
Because down below, Lu Ran, who had witnessed this scene, seemed to remain calm and once again pulled out something strangely... the prize money, he had it in the bag!
"So this is your final trump card, huh?" Lu Ran exhaled.
In his left hand was the Wind Cutting Sword, and in his right hand... the Wind Meteor Sword slowly emerged!
The Necromancer and Manager Ying looked bewildered as Lu Ran tossed the Wind Meteor Sword into the air.
The next moment, Mr. Husky leapt once again, biting the Wind Meteor Sword, with a sharp glint in his eyes.
The sword hummed and vibrated fiercely, and the air around it stirred violently. From the moment he bit onto the sword, Mr. Husky seemed to become a different dog.
A terrifying aura immediately pressed down on the Necromancer, making his gaze grow cold and filled with disbelief.
"What is this!" They were dumbfounded, only feeling that the sword-carrying Husky was extremely fierce, bearing the aura of a Wolf King, with an overwhelming presence that made them uncomfortable and somewhat fearful.
Gale Sword Energy!
"Woof! (I have a sword that can slay evil spirits.)"
As he spoke, Mr. Husky wielded the Wind Meteor Sword in midair, and with the boost of his gale skills, he slashed out three or four sword energies in an instant.
With the sword energy enforcing lock-on, it appeared as though a galaxy was falling, with glimmers of light twinkling in the abandoned area.
The chaotic and swift sword energy, arriving fiercely, was like the fang of a canine predator, and at that moment, the Necromancer was still bemused as the sword energy instantly engulfed them, causing a violent explosion on the spot, with dust and debris flying everywhere!!!
Amidst the explosion noise, Mr. Husky landed, revealing a sharp gaze, and seemed to be looking for a pair of sunglasses to put on, modestly concealing his sharpness.
"Manager Ying, although Necromancers are tricky to deal with, it's not too bad... You better check quickly so they don't die, I was a bit nervous and didn't hold back for my first time," said Lu Ran, adding, "We must interrogate him, he's too despicable."
Manager Ying: ???
Damn, Sword-Carrying Dog, what the hell! Cat's head is in shock; you man and dog don't seem like novices at all!
