Chapter 654: One Against Three

Da Feng bent its back like a bow, its wings on both sides nowhere to be seen. It stared intently at Da Zi as if it were a vicious hunting dog slowly approaching.
Intentionally, Gao Peng pretended not to see it and casually maneuvered Da Zi to look to the left. This allowed its back to be completely exposed to Da Feng’s fangs.
Da Feng took a deep breath while its eyes shone as it stared at the back of Da Zi’s neck. Its body shook, turning into a shadow and vanishing on the spot.
On Da Zi’s left, a gust of wind began gathering out of thin air. This monster even knows how to create diversions. Gao Peng gave a faint smile. But even so, it will all end here.
The wings on Da Zi’s back quietly gathered intense lightning as the lightning condensed in the void to form a terrifying power that became stronger and stronger.
Now! Da Feng’s eyes shined bright as a flash of ferocity passed through its eyes. I gave you a chance, but you asked for it.
Boom!
Da Feng’s body shuddered, making its silhouette seem especially blurry. It transformed into a mass of shadows that went directly for the back of Da Zi’s neck. For most monsters, the back of the neck was the absolute Achilles heel!
Da Zi raised its head and took a deep breath, inhaling strands of lightning that entered its nostrils.
Da Zi’s body glowed brighter and the emanating light gradually became more radiant. “Silver Thunder Wrath.”
A wild roar tore from Da Zi’s throat as the air erupted with a series of sharp whistling sounds. Its huge tail swept to the side like a dragon waving its tail.
The lightning-patterned wings on its back flashed as thunder echoed and rumbled all over the place. In an instant, the earth turned dark purple, red, and silver as three very different types of lightning transformed into three thunder dragons that attacked Da Feng vigorously.
Da Feng, completely unable to dodge, was hit directly. It growled in anger as it condensed the power of the wind element within its body furiously to counter the lightning. However, it was a heavy burden for the wind element within to bear.
One second, two seconds, three seconds, four seconds… A minute had passed and a sense of despair rose from the bottom of Da Feng’s heart. How is it possible to have so much power of lightning? Is it a pig?!
The lightning tore through its skin and pierced its cheek, causing blood to spurt everywhere. The blood spilt was even cleanly evaporated by the lightning in mid-air.
Da Feng was thrown back and tumbled back a few times. Finally, it landed harshly on the ground. Its front upper body was a mess of blood and flesh charred black from lightning, the rise and fall of its chest the only proof that it was still alive.
Following Da Feng’s heavy injury, the darkness shrouding the area had also vanished to reappear as two pairs of wings on Da Feng’s back. Gao Peng called Second Baby back quietly without anyone noticing.
With a shake of its wings, Da Zi flew into the air and looked down upon the people below. “Both of you can attack together,” said Da Zi indifferently.
The Yak King and the eight-tailed Thunderbeast glanced at each other, and with a silent understanding, they attacked Da Zi from the left and right.
“Moo—” The horn atop the Yak King’s head was raised up high as it gleamed coldly with pink light and released a large amount of pink-colored fog. “Ultimate Musk.” The musk in the Yak King’s body turned extremely thick and wafted in all directions.
Although musk was a medicine, once the concentration of the musk absorbed had surpassed a fixed amount, even a tonic could become a poison.
The Ultimate Musk itself was a very toxic poison produced from a mutation of extremely concentrated musk.
Gao Peng was astonished. “I never thought that you, the Yak King with big eyes and thick brows, would play with poison!”
The Thousand Lightning Field expanded, forming a barrier that kept the Ultimate Musk out.
“Lightning Sea of Purgatory!” Da Zi growled.
As the lightning element of the earth was drawn, a sea of lightning rumbling across the sky struck down at the two familiars.
Although Da Zi was only at Level 81, lower than either of them, in the aspect of Elemental Power reserve, Da Zi could beat them by a great deal.
Lightning bolts fell heavily, like rain. Both the Saint-tier monsters expended their efforts to withstand the onslaught of the lightning, so much so that they were completely unable to find an opportunity to attack Da Zi.
After five full minutes had passed, Da Zi began to slowly tuck in its wings. The dense lightning vanished into thin air.
Gao Peng calmly said, “Now can you let me have a look at the map?”
“No way,” replied Lei Yi out of habit.
“All right, another five minutes then,” said Gao Peng plainly.
After five minutes, “How about now?”
Without even waiting for Lei Yi to speak, another Saint-tier monster trainer quickly answered, “Take it; it’s all yours.” I would really die after another five minutes!
Gao Peng took all the maps from the other monster trainers with a smile, looking through each and every map.
These monster trainers watched Gao Peng anxiously, afraid that he wouldn’t return the maps to them.
“You said you would only take a look,” said Tong Ling poutily with tears about to drip from her watery eyes.
“Don’t worry, I always keep my word,” said Gao Peng as he proceeded to summon Silly and retrieve a mobile phone from Silly’s space to take pictures of each map.
For each picture taken, he would return a map to someone. These people who had never really seen a mobile phone before looked at the scene before them in confusion. What is this?
“This, this looks like a mobile phone,” said someone strangely. He had heard of mobile phones before and understood some of their functions, but he had never really cared before. Yet this time…
“What is he doing with this thing called a mobile phone? By swiping it twice, this monster will remember the map?”
At this moment, Tong Ling spoke, “I know. Mobile phones aren’t monsters. They’re tools, just like the pots and pans you all use to eat rice. Anyone can use it.” This caught everyone’s attention.
“I’ve been to the Earth Star before,” said Tong Ling. “So I’ve also used a mobile phone. It can take pictures, and anything that has been captured will be replicated in the mobile phone to be browsed through at any time.”
“Whew, that’s amazing.”
“So where can I buy this mobile phone?”
“Although I dislike Gao Peng, I’ve heard that Earth Star’s Huaxia Region has the best mobile phones, especially from the Southern Sky Group, which is Gao Peng’s family’s company. They produce mobile phones that have the best quality,” said Tong Ling calmly.
“So that’s the case…” The whole group of monster trainers nodded.
“Other than mobile phones, they also have many interesting little gadgets. Even if they aren’t much use normally, they can come in pretty handy during certain instances.”
By this time, Gao Peng had finished taking pictures. Holding the phone, he returned the maps to everyone. “I told you all that I would only borrow them for a while, and I didn’t lie.”
After taking back the maps, these monster trainers had perplexed looks on their faces.
Gao Peng was silent for a moment, then he spoke, “How about this; I won’t take your maps for free. Since you all know about mobile phones, you should know that besides mobile phones, we still have computers, the internet, and many other high-tech products. But these things need a network… meaning that to unleash their biggest function, you need something called a base station.”
“Base station?” Naturally, these monster trainers had never heard of this term before.
“Yup, a base station.” Gao Peng paused for a second, and with a tone that portrayed just how big of a bargain they were receiving, he said, “As compensation, I will install a base station from Huaxia in everyone’s tribe for free! I won’t take a single cent!”
