Apocalypse Gachapon

Chapter 1401: Eating and taking

Silence.

The room was silent.

Alamos, Wen Yan, and the others all felt there was a chance Jiu Long would lose. But just now, a few seconds ago, Jiu Long gave them hope, and they all thought he would win.

Who knew that the battle would end like this?

He could lose, but for him to lose so cleanly and quickly…

The first battle not only didn’t cause the energy to increase, but it also meant they had to be more careful in the next battles.

“He was only seven stars, so it wasn’t hard to understand how he lost to an eight-star opponent.”

Gyanendra started talking after being recognised. Xia Bai’s performance caused his eyes to flash, and no one knew what he was thinking.

Wen Yan nodded, “Him having that earthworm is such a waste. If it were someone else, they would definitely win.”

“That might not be true.”
David suddenly said, “Don’t you think she won too easily? What does that mean? She didn’t use her full strength. She just activated her bloodline to increase some of her strength and relied on the speed of her wings and the sharpness of her scythe. She didn’t even use a single skill.”

Everyone was silent and knew that David was right. Although Xia Bai’s victory took a little longer, it was very simple. It was a crushing victory.

“Look!”

Everyone had turned to each other because of their conversation. Xia Bai’s victory meant she would be teleported, so most people didn’t look at the screen. Hearing that shout, everyone turned.

Xia Bai didn’t disappear and just squatted beside Jiu Bao, looking at the face without eyes.

Of course, this might be its tail.

“Jiu Long and Jiu Bao were deemed as a single body by the space. Jiu Long is dead, but Jiu Bao is alive. She still needs to kill Jiu Bao!”

Someone shouted, but the voice was very soft. Everyone knew that the earthworm was weak due to it buffing Jiu Long. Just a wave of her scythe could kill it.

The question was if Xia Bai was willing to use that strike.

But instantly, everyone realised that something wasn’t right. Xia Bai didn’t wave her weapon and even kept it. She reached her hand out and tried to get close to Jiu Bao.

People who saw this had some guesses but hoped it wasn’t true. They also didn’t think it was possible.

Xia Bai’s hand landed on its skin and that giant body shuddered. But this level eight battle beast didn’t react. Its head and tail wrapped around and surrounded Xia Bai in the middle. No one knew what that was for.

“Impossible, this is impossible.”

There was a sharp voice in the quiet room.

He was Li Lin, originally Thousand Beast Villa’s battle beast keeper. Although he wasn’t a top expert in this field, he did have some knowledge. As one of the members who staged the coup, he controlled some power, so the space recognised him and allowed him to be here.

He saw what XIa Bai did. This would only happen if the battle beast recognises someone as a master.

Mutated lifeforms, even herbivores, would have fierce natures. To turn them into battle beasts, you either raise them from young or have strong contract scrolls. If not, you need to tame them.

Taming sounded simple, but it was extremely hard to achieve. Normally, even if you beat a mutated lifeform to death, it wouldn’t willingly become your battle beast.

You can try using some benefits to seduce the mutated lifeform but these fellows usually wouldn’t think of giving up themselves. Like Yangos. Even if Cloud Peak could give him many benefits, raising his level and helping him recover, he only formed a master and servant relationship with Ye Zhongming through a contract. If not, that dragon would have betrayed them.

Battle beasts were among the most studied aspects of the apocalypse. In Thousand Beast Villa, battle beasts recognized masters on their own. After all, the beasts they nurtured were less hostile than those in the wild.

Thus, Li Lin was familiar with Jiu Bao’s current state. It was accepting an evolved as its Master.

If not, Jiu Bao would retaliate. Even if it couldn’t win, it would only quiet down when it was killed. Especially when it had a Master before, and it was being forced to recognise its master’s killer.

He felt it was impossible, but it was happening.

A dark energy appeared in Xia Bai’s hand, and it spread to Jiu Bao’s body. The earthworm shook. The skin that had turned green after it passed some energy to Jiu Long started to turn dark, and there were golden ring-shaped spots.

At the same time, the two ends underwent huge changes. Features started to appear. There wasn’t any nose, but there were two pairs of eyes, also… A pair of white ears with some fur…

That looked weird.

Why would an Earthworm that lived underground have a pair of rabbit-like ears?

No one could explain it, but it appeared.

The head and tail had such changes.

Moments later, Xia Bai retracted her hand. They could tell that she was very tired, but Jiu Bao had obtained new life. Its black body had golden rings. Four eyes, giant mouth, rabbit ears…

Xia Bai retracted her wings and Jiu Bao lowered its body to let Xia Bai sit on its neck. It then raised its neck and raised its Master into the sky.

In the next moment, they disappeared.

Breaking free was the reward for the victor.

“What happened?”

Wen Yan shouted. They lost that battle, and the other party obtained a battle pet. It was even level eight. This caused Xia Bai to get much stronger. Although Jiu Bao was a support battle beast, how strong would Xia Bai get if she was buffed by it?

Everyone knew how loyal she was to Ye Zhongming. Even if this operation succeeded and Ye Zhongming died, Xia Bai would take revenge. The target would most likely be Wen Yan, who would remain in the country. For such an eight-star and level eight battle beast to target him, even he felt he wouldn’t be able to sleep well.

But he tried his best to calm down. He could only look at the current situation. Since Xia Bai broke free, then Ye Zhongming must die. If not, Wen Yan would be the dead one.
