Beast Taming: Starting From Zero - Chapter 1402

1402. Chapter 1397 Tooth Treasure VS Water Navigator (Two-in-One)

“Water Navigator’s Abyss Barrier withstood the Explosive Flame Bullet’s attack!” Aurore shouted from the commentary booth.

“Fire Sky.”

Fire Sky Qilin exclaimed with a sigh.

It seemed that the Risk Dice from the previous round had indeed had a significant impact on the state of the Burning Emperor.

Nephthys said, “Once the black aura on the Burning Emperor disappears, it means the effect of the Risk Dice has also disappeared. However, I think based on the duration of the effect of the Risk Dice roll of 6, the Burning Emperor’s state should be affected for the entire round.”

Just as the host was commentating, Toothball split into two, two into four, four into countless.

Countless Burning Emperors instantly occupied every corner of the arena.

High in the sky, mid-air, and on the ground, all the Burning Emperors opened their mouths and simultaneously sprayed golden-red beams of light towards the direction of Water Navigator.

The magnificent scene made even the usually ruthless Water Navigator’s expression change slightly.

“Split.”

At this moment, the voice of its Beastmaster entered its ears.

Just as countless golden-red beams of light were about to attack Water Navigator, it suddenly transformed into countless others, also spreading to every corner of the arena.

A deafening roar erupted, and a shockwave carrying flames spread in all directions.

The air vibrated violently, and wherever the shockwave passed, the clones of the Burning Emperor and the Water Voyager vanished.

No screams from the Water Voyager rang out, and in areas unaffected by the shockwave, the clones still remained.

The main body hadn’t been hit… Qiao Sang quickly assessed the situation and said, “Together!”

As soon as he finished speaking, all the remaining Burning Emperors opened their mouths simultaneously. In front of each Burning Emperor, a gigantic head formed from flames, baring sharp teeth and moving in unison, lunging to bite the nearest Water Voyager.

All the Water Voyagers reacted swiftly, moving in sync, raising their tails that instantly swept across the water and lashing them down heavily.

“Bang bang bang!!!”

Deafening explosions echoed one after another. In the fierce collision, almost all the Burning Emperors and Water Nautilus were scattered and disappeared, leaving only one Burning Emperor high in the sky, its jaws firmly biting the tail of a Water Nautilus.

“Water Nautilus!”

The Water Nautilus showed a pained expression, and the water flowing around its tail suddenly doubled in size, its color changing from light blue to dark blue. It swung downwards with increased force.

Toothball was directly blasted away, flying diagonally downwards to the ground.

Amidst the massive water energy, Toothball’s claws dug tightly into the ground, carving a deep trench along the surface after landing.

“The Water Nautilus’s power has gained the upper hand!” Auror shouted from the commentary platform.

Nefertis exclaimed, “Fen Di Duo has already fought once and is still affected by the risk dice. Moreover, judging from its attributes, Shui Hang Niu is a perfect counter to it. This match will likely be difficult for Fen Di Duo.” “

Huo Tian.”

“Huo Tian.”

Huo Tianqi looked at the field with an appreciative expression and called out twice, indicating that Shui Hang Niu’s reaction was perfectly in sync with Fen Di Duo’s offensive rhythm. Even when it used clones, it knew to use the Flying Water Rings to put itself and its clones in the air to fight against Fen Di Duo’s clones.

In the air, each of Shui Hang Niu’s four limbs was now suspended by a rapidly spinning water ring.

“Soaring Water Ring,” a high-level water-type skill, has no offensive function. However, it creates a high-speed rotating water ring under the pet’s feet, granting flightless water-type pets the ability to move in the air. It’s an extremely rare skill, practically unseen among water-type pets. Therefore, even though it’s a support skill without any additional benefits, it’s classified as high-level by the Beast Taming Alliance… After recalling the information about Soaring Water Ring in her mind, Qiao Sang’s gaze shifted from the rotating water ring to Water Navigator.

Others might not know, assuming that Tooth Treasure was affected by the Risk Dice, but she clearly knew that Tooth Treasure’s condition was twice as strong without the Risk Dice’s influence; this was its normal state.

Although Fire Fang is only a mid-level skill, it’s considered Tooth Treasure’s signature move. It had long ago mastered it to the Ultimate level, and its power far exceeded what a simple mid-level skill could define.

Moreover, once Tooth Treasure bites its opponent, it won’t be easily thrown off.

This Water Navigator’s energy far surpasses Tooth Treasure’s; even if it’s not at the mid-stage of the Royal level, it should be close… Qiao Sang concluded, her mind racing.

If that’s the case, given Ya Bao’s current state against Water Navigator, the initiative will definitely fall into the opponent’s hands very quickly. Once the initiative is in the opponent’s hands, it’s over…

However, it’s not entirely hopeless. Either ignite the Blazing Flame or make the effect of the Risk Dice disappear.

The former requires intense fighting, and if the initiative falls into Water Navigator’s hands, the Blazing Flame will be ignited sooner or later. The latter, however, can be controlled.

The effect of a 6 on the Risk Dice is about ten minutes. Little Treasure Hunter, Lu Bao, and Steel Treasure can probably stall for about ten minutes, but given Ya Bao’s fighting style, stalling for about ten minutes is unlikely…

Speaking of which, I wonder if the malicious power formed by the Risk Dice can be considered a kind of curse power…

If it is a curse power…

In a flash of thought, Ya Bao had already stabilized his body, but then immediately teleported away.

Water Navigator sensed the danger and quickly moved using the rapidly spinning water rings under his feet.

However, the next second, a tremendous gravity suddenly dropped.

Water Navigator was caught off guard and, under the pressure, “whoosh,” plummeted straight down.

“Water Field,” Gaston responded quickly and issued the command.

The Water Glider crashed to the ground.

However, the expected slam didn’t happen. Instead, ripples spread rapidly across the entire arena the moment it touched the ground.

The next moment, the arena turned blue, transforming into a water field.

The Water Glider fell into it, disappearing without a trace amidst the massive ripples.

“The Water Glider has used Water Field!” exclaimed Nefertis on the commentary panel.

“This move prevented the Water Glider from being damaged and even turned the ground into a favorable field. Gaston’s move was brilliant,” praised Auror. “

Fire Sky.”

“Fire Sky.”

Fire Sky called out twice, indicating that if the Burning Emperor was simply a fire-type, the water field would definitely put it in a difficult position. However, the Burning Emperor had wings and a psychic-type attribute, so as long as it didn’t land on the ground, the water field shouldn’t affect it much.

Just as Fire Sky was analyzing, Toothball raised its head and opened its mouth.

Almost at the same moment Toothball raised his head and opened his mouth, Gaston realized something and gave the command:

“Rain.”

A crimson energy ball containing terrifying power instantly shot out from Tooth’s mouth.

At the same time, dark clouds rapidly gathered in the sky, churning and rolling like thick ink.

With a loud “Bang!”,

the crimson energy sphere exploded at the highest point, unleashing a sudden downpour of fire rain.

The burning flames and rain clashed in mid-air, extinguishing much of the fire.

However, a significant amount of fire still fell onto the water field.

“Bang bang bang!”

The fire rain crashed down, impacting the water field with its violent force, like countless bombs being dropped into it, sending water spraying high into the air.

Amidst the countless splashes, the figure of Water Navigator suddenly emerged, a dark blue barrier enveloping it, blocking the relentless fire rain.

Toothpick immediately opened its mouth, unleashing a magnificent golden-red beam of light that pierced the sky, swiftly striking downwards towards Water Navigator’s location.

Simultaneously, the water field surged wildly like a tsunami, then thick columns of water suddenly rose from within, instantly churning into the sky.

Several of these water columns precisely targeted the golden-red beam of light. With a deafening

“Bang!”

, a fierce shockwave accompanied by flames rippled outwards, while the remaining water columns continued upwards, converging towards the direction of Toothbear.

Toothbear remained motionless, its eyes glowing blue.

The next second, all the water columns rushing towards it were controlled by an invisible force, momentarily suspended in mid-air, before abruptly turning downwards, changing direction and sweeping towards the Water Navigator in the Water Field.

However, just as all the water columns had descended only a dozen meters, they were suddenly controlled again, suspended in mid-air.

Both forces acted on the water columns, causing them to shake violently. Soon, one force gained the upper hand, and all the water columns once again surged upwards, heading towards the direction of Toothbear.

“The Water Navigator has regained control of the water columns!” Auror exclaimed from the commentary booth.

“It seems that in terms of energy, the Water Navigator has the upper hand,” Nefertis said.

“Fire Sky.”

“Fire Sky.”

Fire Sky Qi called out twice, indicating that Water Flight’s strength lay not in its higher energy level than Burning Emperor, but in its control over water energy. It’s important to understand that when both forces exert their control on a water column, the column would easily collapse and explode. However, the water column withstood the pressure and launched a second attack. This required precise control from the stronger force; otherwise, if the force was too strong or too weak, the water column wouldn’t be able to launch a second attack.

Nefertis remarked,

“Fire Sky Qi’s analysis is very insightful.”

Auror echoed, “The risk dice have a huge impact on Burning Emperor; otherwise, Burning Emperor might not have lost to Fire Sky Qi in the energy confrontation.”

As they spoke, Toothball in the sky grew increasingly excited. It teleported away, dodging the concentrated attack of all the water columns.

However, suddenly, it sensed something and frowned.

Just then, countless water columns surged forth from the water field again, spraying towards Toothball.

This time, the water columns didn’t attack in unison.

Toothball teleported, dodging the oncoming water columns.

However, when it appeared in another location, another water column came hurtling towards it.

Toothless was enormous, and the water column attacks were dense. At first, it dodged relatively easily, but later, its speed noticeably slowed down, and it was even nearly hit, only able to rely on its flame-breathing ability to break through the incoming water columns.

On the commentary stage, Fire Sky Qi showed a puzzled expression and called out,

“Fire Sky?”

The reaction speed and reaction time of Fen Di Duo were clearly slower. Could it be that the effect of the Risk Dice only became more pronounced over time?

“It’s not the Risk Dice,” Nephthys said, “It’s Heavy Rain.”

“It must be Heavy Rain, otherwise how could Fen Di Duo’s reaction be so slow?” The audience began to discuss among themselves.

The fact that Water Voyage New York had encountered Heavy Rain was no secret.

“Holy crap! So Shui Hangniu used Heavy Rain! I thought Fen Di Duo’s slower reaction time was due to the Risk Dice.”

“Both reasons are true. Fen Di Duo has been weakened too much, with both Risk Dice and Heavy Rain.”

“I thought Fen Di Duo could win this match…”

“Why can’t he win? Fen Di Duo hasn’t even unleashed his Fierce Fire yet. Have you forgotten? His Fierce Fire is golden.”

On the high platform, Qiao Sang stretched out her hand, feeling the rain falling on the field.

With each drop of rain that landed on her hand, she felt her hand become heavier.

Heavy Rain, a high-level water-type skill, the falling rain becomes heavy, and when it lands on the target, it continuously increases the target’s gravity, slowing them down… Qiao Sang withdrew her hand, and after recalling the relevant information in her mind, her expression remained unchanged as she issued the command:

“Rise.”

Water-type pets have never had an advantage in aerial combat because flying-type or psychic-type pets can continuously ascend, while water-type skills, no matter how powerful, are limited in their range.

Rain-type skills are indeed effective against aerial beasts, especially Heavy Rain, but they are more effective against Flying-types than Psychic-types.

Toothbear teleported away, appearing at a height beyond the reach of the water columns.

Immediately afterward, Josang issued another command: “Purify.”

Although Toothbear appeared as a red dot from the ground, it clearly heard its Beastmaster’s voice. It was startled at first, then its eyes lit up as if it had realized something.

Unseen by anyone, golden flames suddenly ignited within its body, and wherever it passed, the black aura vanished at a visible speed.

The Holy Fire could actually purify the malicious effects of the Risk Dice… Josang, who had been monitoring Toothbear’s state, had a gleam in his eyes.

Purify? What does that mean… Gaston didn’t think too deeply and said,

“Original Claw.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a thick column of water suddenly surged from beneath the Water Navigator, instantly propelling it into the air.

“Water Navigator!”

Then, the Water Navigator raised its claw and stomped down hard.

The thick column of water below collapsed with a roar, but the Water-Boarding Beast didn’t fall with it. The rapidly spinning water rings on its limbs kept it suspended in mid-air.

Just as the Water-Boarding Beast’s claws slammed downwards, all the falling rainwater in the sky suddenly converged in one place, rapidly forming a colossal claw about a hundred meters long with four enormous toes!

Its appearance was exactly the same as the claws on the Water-Boarding Beast’s limbs.

Primal Water Body, a super-tier water-based skill, allows all surrounding water energy to converge into a shape identical to its own, enabling it to unleash a tsunami-like attack with a mere flick of its wrist.

If one’s skill level is insufficient, one can only condense a part of the body. (End of Chapter)
