A God-tier Counter-damage Priest, I am the Master!

82: Frenzied monster killing, accumulating mana”Son, the Lantern Festival is in two days. You didn’t come home for the New Year this year, so Dad will transfer ten thousand yuan to you in a bit. Use it to pay this year’s tuition.”

Bai Tian was suddenly overwhelmed by the unexpected favor.

His penny-pinching father, who in previous years wouldn’t even give him his five hundred yuan monthly living allowance on time, had actually, for once, remembered to give him ten thousand for tuition?

This was something that had never happened before.

His father continued over the phone, ”The money left over after paying tuition will be for your living expenses.”

”If you have time this summer vacation, come home and visit.”

Bai Tian couldn’t quite process his father’s sudden change for a moment.

Bai Tian was a bit dazed, even wondering if he hadn’t woken up yet and was still dreaming. He could only respond blankly, ”Oh... okay.”

His father didn’t say much more, hanging up after giving a few more instructions.

Bai Tian checked his phone, and sure enough, there was a ten thousand yuan transfer from his father.

At that moment, Bai Tian noticed that the [Help Little Help] company had sent a message informing him of their current progress.

After reading it, Bai Tian let out a faint grin.

No wonder his father had just said last time that the pressure was too great and he didn’t plan on giving him any more living expenses, yet today he abnormally transferred ten thousand yuan.

It turned out that Help Little Help had used legal means to help his father’s small renovation company sign several large contracts in a row.

The deposits alone had already earned his father a net profit of 200,000 yuan.

Bai Tian’s mood instantly improved significantly. It wasn’t about the amount of money; he wouldn’t care about ten thousand yuan now.

Rather, this gesture from his father proved that he still cared about his eldest son.

Before, perhaps the economic pressure really was just too overwhelming.

While checking WeChat, Bai Tian also discovered that his mother had sent him several long voice messages this morning.

Her voice was full of joy as she said a large restaurant had signed a year-long delivery contract with her small fish stall.

This large restaurant had even prepaid a deposit of 100,000 yuan.

At the end, his mother scolded Bai Tian slightly, asking why he still hadn’t accepted that 40,000 yuan transfer.

Bai Tian’s face was full of delight. He thought to himself that Help Little Help really lived up to its reputation; their efficiency was incredibly fast, and this money was well-spent.

After replying to his mother with a few smiling voice messages, Bai Tian immediately got out of bed, washed up, and went downstairs for breakfast.

However, this meal was a combination of breakfast and lunch.

After eating, Bai Tian went out to exercise for forty minutes, then returned home to shower and change. He logged into the game feeling refreshed.

It was now 1:21 PM.

The weather in the game today was exceptionally hot, with clear skies and ground that felt a bit scorching to the touch.

Bai Tian summoned his Ancestral Return Strange Horse. After feeding it, he rode it out like an arrow from a bow, drawing countless shouts as he quickly left [Border Wild City].

His task today before entering the [Nether Heaven Great Realm] was to crazily grind mobs to stack his mana points.

An hour later, Bai Tian rode the Ancestral Return Strange Horse to a swamp area on the map.

This swamp was vast and boundless, with countless dried skeletons and rotting vegetation lying across the mud.

Within it, a large number of Level 28 Swamp Crocodiles and Level 27 Swamp Pythons wandered.

These two types of monsters were both common types. Their experience and drop rates wouldn’t be very high, but they were superior in numbers.

Bai Tian summoned the Little Dragon Zombie. By now, it had reached half a meter in height, looking like a one-year-old toddler.

The Level 15 Little Dragon Zombie had undergone massive attribute changes and had also awakened a new skill: [Blood Battle Unyielding].

——[Little Dragon Zombie]!

Quality: 9-Star High Rank (Capable of infinite evolution!)

Type: Bloody Battle

Level: 15 (81.19%)

HP: 6820

Attack: 411

Dual Defense: 820

Skills: [Corpse Howl], [Share Link], [Blood Battle Unyielding], (Automatically awakens a new skill every 10 levels.)

Status: (Owner: Brilliant).

Hunger: 61

——[Blood Battle Unyielding]!

(When HP falls below 20%, automatically enters the Blood Battle Unyielding state, instantly restoring to full status, increasing all attributes by 100%, Refreshing all skill CDs, and ignoring all non-divine control effects for 1 minute.)

(Skill CD: 20 minutes.)

The Little Dragon Zombie’s attributes and skills were indeed fierce. Once it reached Level 20, its attributes would undergo a qualitative change, and it would awaken another new skill.

When leveling up in a swamp area, the only concern was the risk of sinking into the mire.

But the reason Bai Tian still chose to come here to grind mobs and stack mana was naturally because he was counting on the Little Dragon Zombie.

Bai Tian applied a double-effect [Cold Abyss Blessing] and [Body Strengthening Technique] to the Little Dragon Zombie, then said to it,

”Go, help me pull mobs. The more, the better.”

As soon as Bai Tian’s command fell, the Little Dragon Zombie immediately whistled out. It hovered half a meter above the ground, moving as if walking on air.

Bai Tian had noticed long ago that the Little Dragon Zombie seemed to possess the ability for low-altitude flight.

Sure enough, the Little Dragon Zombie did not disappoint Bai Tian at all. With its movement speed increased by 20%, its low-altitude flight speed was even a notch faster.

Instantly, countless Swamp Crocodiles and Swamp Pythons within the swamp surged into motion, chasing after the Little Dragon Zombie.

Relying on the Little Dragon Zombie alone to pull mobs was still too slow.

Bai Tian hopped off the horse’s back, took out ten butterfly orchids to feed the Ancestral Return Strange Horse, and then snapped his fingers at it.

The Ancestral Return Strange Horse naturally understood what he meant. It immediately turned into a mass of white light, charging into the swamp like a startled swan, letting out continuous long neighs.

Legend has it that when a horse’s speed reaches its limit, it can achieve the miraculous effect of treading on snow without leaving a trace.

The Ancestral Return Strange Horse seemed to be no less impressive; it moved across the swamp as if on level ground, its steps flying.

In just five minutes, all the Swamp Crocodiles and Swamp Pythons within a 4,000-meter radius had been drawn in by the Little Dragon Zombie and the Ancestral Return Strange Horse.

Suddenly, the mud was boiling incessantly. Like a beast tide, at least two thousand Swamp Crocodiles and pythons converged crazily.

Bai Tian’s eyes lit up as these two thousand-plus Swamp Crocodiles and pythons approached within a 500-meter range.

Bai Tian immediately applied a Cold Abyss Blessing effect to himself, increasing it by 640%.

——”Roar!”

The S-grade divine skill [Tiger Roar Shakes Mountains and Rivers] was activated. Its sound was so violent it was like detonating a bomb, shaking the surroundings.

Within 500 meters, the bodies of the two thousand-plus Swamp Crocodiles and pythons all stiffened. A terrifying damage number simultaneously appeared above their heads: -130,000+.

The Swamp Crocodiles and pythons had less than 130,000 total HP. They were all insta-killed, with over 2,000 of them harvested in an instant.

This single moment caused the Little Dragon Zombie to level up to 16.

Even Bai Tian’s experience bar increased by 0.08%.

The experience from common monsters was truly too low, but it didn’t matter; Bai Tian’s goal today was originally to stack mana points.

The Little Dragon Zombie must have been hungry. It immediately pounced on the carcass of a Swamp Python and sucked its blood in large gulps.

Only after sucking dry the carcasses of over twenty Swamp Pythons did it stop, satisfied.

”Let’s go, keep working.”
