Free Web NovelChapter 688: Chapter 683: Da Fei
Though the Winged Tooth Beast King was forced by circumstances to become Bai Pu’s summoned creature, it didn’t mean there would be no worries.
There is still a "loyalty" indicator between summoned creatures and their summoners.
Generally, a loyalty score above 60 points is considered the passing line.
If it’s below 60 points, the summoned creature might be passively resisting the summoner’s commands.
If it’s below 40 points, the summoned creature might betray and flee.
The origin of a summoned creature’s loyalty can either be a close relationship with the summoner or fear of the summoner’s power.
Bai Pu looked at the loyalty of the Winged Tooth Beast King towards him and saw it’s only... 30 points.
Those 30 points are probably from the "Divine Descent Warrior’s Comfort" which imposes a forced loyalty, also containing the deterrent effect from pure blood.
A loyalty score of 30 is almost an assured betrayal; as long as Wind Lord Belize removes the electric net, the Winged Tooth Beast King would likely escape on the spot, maybe even turn back to attack Bai Pu.
However, Bai Pu already thought of a way to handle this.
The "Divine Descent Warrior’s Comfort" with pure blood is like a "forced acquisition" stick.
Next comes the carrot.
Make the Winged Tooth Beast King genuinely feel that following him has a bright future!
For a beast like the Winged Tooth Beast King, which lacks the worries of food and drink, nothing is more enticing than "becoming stronger". frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
Bai Pu drew the Doomsday Spear and switched "Adaptive Evolution" to target lightning damage.
The Magic Sand Flying Disc carried Bai Pu, flying slowly into the "Thunder-Binding Net".
Naturally, Bai Pu was struck by the current, enduring both thunder damage and mental dizziness.
Bai Pu couldn’t activate shields like "Mountain and Sea Appearance" because he currently couldn’t mobilize professional energy.
However, the electric shock damage, mitigated by adaptive evolution, along with Bai Pu’s own magic resistance and equipment enhancement level reduction, was already minimal enough that his mere body could withstand it, only causing tiny wisps of smoke to rise from the skin.
The mental dizziness effect was greatly reduced by Bai Pu’s Iron Horn Helmet’s passive "Steadfast Heart".
The remaining mental impact effect was trivial due to Bai Pu visualizing mountains and seas, using the Viewing the Sea Combined Mystical Arts for mind cultivation, merely causing a slight tingling sensation, that’s all.
Seeing Bai Pu enter the "Thunder-Binding Net" without activating energy protection had shocked even the Winged Tooth Beast King.
In its heart, Bai Pu’s power swiftly escalated from "alright" to "profound and unfathomable".
The Huaxia Battle Group Awakened nearby, witnessing Bai Pu enter the Thunder-Binding Net with only slight smoke rising from his body, couldn’t help but gasp silently.
"Doesn’t it seem like Gangxin Leader’s defense is almost equivalent to that of the Winged Tooth Beast King? The electric net from Wind Lord only leaves a bit of smoke on them."
"It’s no surprise that the Winged Tooth Beast King is a beast with a strong template having such defensive power. Gangxin Leader, on the other hand... this!" The speaker gave a big thumbs up.
"That physique is just like a humanoid fierce beast. No woman on the bed could possibly handle that..." commented a sleazy middle-aged Awakened from the Huaxia Battle Group.
Qingyun’s cheeks flushed hearing that.
Mingyue snorted, glaring at the sleazy man: "Chunli, that’s disgusting!"
The sleazy middle-aged man was greatly affected.
Bai Pu entering the Thunder-Binding Net genuinely subdued the Winged Tooth Beast King.
Even when Bai Pu rode on the Winged Tooth Beast King’s back, it didn’t immediately resist, just grumbled a few times, scratching its lion-like mane awkwardly.
Seeing the loyalty trend downward, Bai Pu quickly offered comfort.
[You have entered riding mode.]
[King-level Purple Weapon: Doomsday’s Passive Skill: Man and Horse as One triggered.]
[You gained partial attributes from the Winged Tooth Beast King, which gained some of your skills.]
Bai Pu instantly felt a strong warm current surge into his body.
Besides the Spirit Attribute, both Strength, Agility, and Endurance all increased!
The most increase was in Strength, jumping up by 40 points, while Agility increased the least, but still by 28 points.
Overall, just this passive ability "Man and Horse as One" granted Bai Pu about 100 points of total attributes!
This is the fusion strength of the Winged Tooth Beast King, an enhanced lord template mount, coupled with the King-level Purple Weapon Doomsday Spear, nearly reaching the limits of the Awakened World.
Bai Pu also held the Celestial Human Title.
Although the time of ascending to Celestial Human was still short, Bai Pu, seasoned by numerous battles and defeating many powerful enemies, had already accumulated over 60 Celestial Human Attribute Points. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
Normally, Bai Pu would add Celestial Human Attribute Points to Agility, firstly to meet the equipment requirements of the full version King-level Purple Weapon, and also to balance Agility with Strength and Endurance values.
Now, in Man and Horse as One state, Bai Pu’s total attributes became:
Power 228
Agility 207
Endurance 230
Spirit 113
All three Physique Attributes have surpassed 200!
If Bai Pu activates the two talent abilities Pure Blood Protection and Genetic Fusion, the attribute values would only increase further.
The four-dimensional attributes are an Awakened’s fundamental strength and the "base" for various multiplier bonuses! Their importance is beyond question.
However, Bai Pu was more concerned about his new mount—the Winged Tooth Beast King.
Through "Man and Horse as One," the Winged Tooth Beast King could obtain some of Bai Pu’s skills, and which skill it draws is crucial!
"It must draw a skill within the Viewing the Sea Mystical Arts system..."
Bai Pu silently thought.
At this moment, a series of Spirit Realm Will prompts were received by Bai Pu, displayed on his retinas.
[Your mount: Winged Tooth Beast King temporarily acquired your mystical arts skill: Gang Step.]
[Your mount: Winged Tooth Beast King temporarily acquired your mystical arts skill: Mountain and Sea Appearance.]
[Your mount: Winged Tooth Beast King temporarily acquired your mystical arts skill: Melt Gold Armor.]
"How cautious can you be..."
Bai Pu was speechless; the three skills temporarily acquired through Man and Horse as One include two defensive ones and a mobility-enhancing (escape) Gang Step!
He initially wanted the Winged Tooth Beast King to learn more offensive skills, like the field control "Storm Sea Eye," or the output-oriented magic martial skill Wave Tidal Sand, or at least the domain skill [Prismatic Domain].
However, on further thought, drawing the compound mystical arts skill "Mountain and Sea Appearance" within the Viewing the Sea system was already impressive.
Mountain and Sea Appearance integrates offense and defense, especially with the "cannon bombardment" active attack effect, which could be decisive.
Bai Pu then stopped dwelling on it; at least the Winged Tooth Beast King didn’t learn any of his magic skills, like the Mud Technique, Wind’s Breath, Quicksand Technique...
The Winged Tooth Beast King clearly felt a change, its beast eyes gleaming brightly, eager to test out the newly appeared skills in its mind.
"From now on, I’ll call you Da Fei."
Thinking of the young beast, Ku Fei, Bai Pu sighed and said, "Da Fei, raise a shield; this layer of electric net poses no threat to you anymore."
