Studying Science in the Alternate World

  Chapter 55 Toad Wolf Beast

  No one knew that Duke was promoted from a one-star spiritual apprentice to a four-star spiritual apprentice in just five months.

  In addition to going to the waste card station in Shenjiao City to buy cards, and sending refurbished cards to the consignment stores in the town.

  He spends most of his time at Little Duke Farm.

Precisely.

   Most of the time is spent exploring the jungle in the south of Xiaohe Bend. Occasionally, I will entertain the old hunters who have returned from hunting and ask them for some hunting experience in the forest.

  Not all dangers in the forest come from spirit beasts.

   There are also swamps, poisonous plants, poisonous flowers, poisonous insects, and various traps set by predecessors.

  For example, at this moment, he was cutting a path to the thorny forest with a machete, when something scratched his arm accidentally.

   Looking back, he suddenly took a deep breath.

   "It's leprosy vine!"

  Hearing the name is very interesting, but in fact this is a highly poisonous substance, which can basically seal the throat with blood, even if the old hunter is not paying attention, he will die under the leprosy vine.

   Fortunately, Duke did not panic.

  The fighting energy was running, and the blood from the wound spurted out immediately, and the poison of the mangy vine was also sprayed out along with the blood. He stopped running the fighting energy only after making sure that the wound was free of toxins.

   "Huh!"

   "If I hadn't cultivated Dou Qi, I wouldn't dare to go deep into the forest to explore alone." Duke took out a hemostatic bandage from his pocket, and carefully bandaged the wound. "As a zero-ring knight, let alone a hundred poisons are invulnerable under the running of Dou Qi, and the small bag can help me continue my life."

  After the knight makes a contract with the spirit beast, they are companions who share life and death.

  When encountering this kind of toxin that sees blood and seals the throat, there are also contracted spirit beasts to continue the life of the knight, supporting the time to find the antidote.

   "Really, Xiaodou?"

   "Chichi!" The long-haired meerkat on his shoulder bared his teeth at Duke in agreement.

  Xiaoyi hangs up "Rainfall Breathing Method" to monitor the surrounding environment at any time, coupled with Xiaodou's vigilance as a spirit beast, it doubles Duke's sense of security.

   Split the thorns blocking the road, and there is a small pool in the forest ahead.

  The water pool is only one meter square, and it is crystal clear. There are no small fish and shrimps in it, only some tiny aquatic insects.

  By the edge of the pool, on the muddy ground, there was a plant that looked like a thorn. On the branches hanging around, there were some small blue flowers blooming, some of which were gorgeous, and some of them had withered.

   "0 ring spiritual plant - Vitex foxtail." Xiaoyi judged, "This plant can already sort out free spirituality and form a spiritual aura."

"good!"

  Duke was overjoyed.

   It was worthwhile to go through all the thorns and thorns all the way, and finally found a 0-ring spiritual plant that can sort out the spiritual energy. Without talking nonsense, I started digging directly.

  The Vitex foxtail is a very large plant with very deep roots.

  However, what Duke has is strength, and his grudge is running for blessing, the shovel is flying up and down, and pieces of mud are thrown into the pool.

   When he was halfway through the excavation, Xiaoyi suddenly gave an early warning: "At five o'clock, there are spirit beasts approaching, master, please be careful!"

  Xiaodou also noticed the abnormality, and made a rapid "chi chi chi" sound in Duke's ear.

  Put down the shovel.

   With a shake of his right hand, a ring of sand eagles is already in his hand.

  Duke quickly looked towards the 5 o'clock direction of the small art newspaper. The thorns there trembled from far to near, and then an ugly monster jumped out of the thorn bushes. It looked like a combination of a toad and a kangaroo, and its thick hind legs jumped high.

   Poof!

   Poof!

   Poof!

  Duke fired at the same spot and fired three bullets.

   The monster obviously didn't know the power of the pistol, jumped into the air and couldn't dodge, was shot three times solidly, and screamed blood and screamed on the spot.

   "Wow!"

  Duke rolled on the spot to avoid the falling monster.

  Then he raised his hand and fired again. There was a continuous burst of subtle gunshots, and only one pair of magazines was completely emptied.

   BANG BOOM!

  The monster fell into the pool, and the dark red blood directly stained the pool.

  Duke found out only when he changed the bullets that the monster had sunk into the pool and remained motionless, with bullets piercing its head, chest, and abdomen.

"died."

   "Xiao Yi, have you figured out what kind of spirit beast it is?"

   "According to the comparison of the atlases in the database, there are two kinds of spirit beasts that are more consistent. One is the 0-ring spirit beast-the jerboa, and the other is the 1-ring spirit beast-the toad wolf."

  Xiaoyi did not give a definite answer, after all, most of the books about spirit beasts that I have read are hand-painted illustrations.

   Too much distortion.

  Duke nodded: "Then it should be a jerboa with a scarlet head. I shot it to death randomly. It didn't even activate a ring of arcane magic, so it can't be regarded as a real spirit beast."

  He stepped on the mud by the pool, grabbed the mangy jerboa by its tail, and pulled the whole body out of the pool.

  However, when he sensed it with spiritual power, he suddenly realized that there was a lot of spirituality surrounding the corpse of this spirit beast, which far exceeded the standard of a 0-ring spirit beast.

   "Ho!"

   "It's not a jerboa, it's a toad wolf, a ring spirit beast!" Duke exclaimed in surprise.

   This is the first 1-ring spirit beast he has encountered in a while, and he was shot to death by a ring of sand eagles after just meeting him, making him mistake it for a 0-ring spirit beast.

   After all, when he rode the black beetle car, he often saw the big knight fighting with 1-ring spirit beasts or even 2-ring spirit beasts.

  As real spirit beasts, they all have inborn solidified arcana.

  Or a wind blade, or an ice pick, or a string of lightning, or a cluster of rockets, or armor such as stone armor.

  For example, the small pocket on his shoulder, after the bloodline awakens, it will condense his solidification arcane.

   "I didn't expect that the 1-ring spirit beast couldn't even release arcane spells under my gun... Maybe the toad wolf was careless. I didn't expect that I, who didn't seem to be strong, had a ring of arcane weapons... I'm afraid it was the most powerful one among the 1-ring arcane weapons."

   No matter how strong the spirit beast is, it is still afraid of real guns.

  Duke is in a great mood.

   Quickly dug out the foxtail wattle, carefully wrapped the roots with plastic film, and then put it in a backpack for carrying.

   Then tie the toad wolf beast with hemp rope and carry it on the shoulder.

   "Xiaodou, let's go home and eat meat to practice!" With the Toad Wolf Beast, a 1-ring spirit beast, there should be no need to spend money on spirit beast meat for half a month's practice of blood refining.

   "Chichi!" Xiaodou jumped onto the corpse of Toad Wolf Beast, showing off his might.

   He took a bite directly from the wound, tore off a small piece of flesh, and ate it voraciously, enjoying himself.

   All the way back to Bieye smoothly.

  Levin was digging a water trough, and when he saw Duke carrying a monster, he regarded it as hunting an ordinary beast, and did not ask curiously.

   "Good afternoon boss, you came back really early."

   "Well, rest when you are tired, work is not done in a day." Duke nodded.

   "Wow!"

  The five little ones ran over from Levine, and jumped around Duke's trousers, trying to please—they could tell who was the master.

   "Go and play." Duke drove away the five little ones.

  Put the toad wolf beast in the living room, and plant the foxtail wattle in the backpack first. This is a 0-ring spiritual plant that can sort out the aura.

   "Slowly, I can arrange the spiritual aura myself, without buying any spiritual plants!"

   "Save money!"
