Chapter 407: Chapter 186: Killing a Level 3 Lord_3
Wang Tao felt some relief, grateful that he had dragged him over here. The others were far away, otherwise, if they had been sprayed, they probably would have been done for!
Watching the big fish open its gaping mouth once more, Wang Tao wasn’t sure if it was roaring or spraying water, but a Slime Grenade appeared in his hand, which he threw directly into that bloody maw.
Splat!
A clump of white slime appeared and instantly stuck the zombie fish’s mouth shut.
Although it only held for a few short seconds, it successfully interrupted the zombie fish’s casting, rendering its attack ineffective.
Wang Tao charged to its side again, with Jiang Shixue attacking from the left and right in a pincer move.
[-3592]
[-1349]
[-3521]
[-1298]
Just then, the zombie fish swung its tail violently with incredible speed. Relying on the Entangling Roots on his body, Wang Tao withstood the hit, but Jiang Shixue was sent flying.
[-128]
[29999/29999（9872/10000）]
The purpose of Wang Tao enduring that blow was to land the final strike!
Splat!
[-3156]
[0/40000]
This punch sank directly into the zombie fish’s head. Even through the Entangling Roots he wore, Wang Tao could smell a fishy stench.
But he immediately felt the zombie fish’s Crystal Core, swiftly pocketing it along with the Loot Pack, then he hurried over to Jiang Shixue. Jiang Shixue had just lost over four hundred HP.
“I’m okay, Brother Wang.”
Wang Tao used a medical kit on Jiang Shixue and carefully checked her over. Once assured she was fine, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Turning back to look at the huge corpse of the zombie fish, his mouth hidden beneath the mask of roots almost stretched to his ears.
The Level 3 Fish Zombie Lord was very strong, but sadly, it was weakened by 90%, and out of water, it lost its maneuverability—no, it had no maneuverability at all, making it nothing but a target for him and Jiang Shixue!
So although it was a Level 3 Lord, Wang Tao found it extremely easy to kill, even more so than the Night Demon he had faced the night before!
After all, the Night Demon had managed to hit him several times, while the zombie fish only landed a single blow on him. And if he hadn’t wanted to finish it off quickly, he might have had a chance to dodge even that attack.
After the zombie fish died, there were still numerous roe inside it. Wang Tao launched some Shockwaves, randomly shattering these egg-sized roe. As a result, they even released loot packs—
[Obtained: Roe x103483]
[Roe: Edible, non-toxic, delicious]
“Good heavens, a hundred thousand roe? And it’s food?”
Wang Tao was somewhat surprised. Each piece of roe was the size of a chicken egg—didn’t a hundred thousand pieces of roe equate to a hundred thousand chicken eggs?
Just the roe alone was a massive haul!
However, Wang Tao didn’t rush to check his loot but went instead to wake the others up, as they were still in a state of dizziness up until now.
It took some effort, but the two of them finally managed to rouse everyone.
“What happened…”
Many were still somewhat out of it after being continuously dazed several times.
Yang Changhong and Xu Xiaojun recovered the quickest.
Seeing the zombie fish with a crushed skull, Yang Changhong was shocked. Her memory stopped just before the dizziness set in. It felt like one moment she closed her eyes and the next the battle was over? Had Wang Tao triumphed? Even though the zombie fish’s strength would certainly be limited on land, it was still a Level 3 zombie!
Xu Xiaojun, on the other hand, took it as a matter of course—Brother Wang was in action, so of course there would be no issues!
“Is everyone okay?”
Yang Changhong didn’t have time to ponder; she asked concernedly after Wang Tao and the others, and after seeing that they were all right, she quickly went to check on everyone else. Assured that the rest were just a bit dizzy and not seriously injured, she finally relaxed.
“You all rest well tonight, we’ll leave tomorrow morning,”
Wang Tao said to Zhang Hong.
“Hmm!”
Zhang Hong nodded. The fish here had almost all been caught, and the Level 3 Fish Zombie Lord was slain by Wang Tao, so it was time to leave.
The others were somewhat reluctant to leave, but the Level 3 Fish Zombie Lord had dazed them for such a long time that they all had psychological shadows and wanted to leave as soon as possible.
Watching everyone start to clean up the battlefield, Wang Tao began to take stock of his loot as well.
The Zombie Fish had brought him 9,600 Special Energy! This brought Wang Tao’s total Special Energy to 24,340!
It can only be said that a Level 3 Lord indeed was terrifyingly powerful!
Then came the Loot Packs, three in total.
The first was naturally the Crystal Core Gift Bag, which contained four Crystal Cores. Along with the one from the Zombie Fish’s head, that was a total of five Crystal Cores.
[Level 3 Crystal Core – Aquatic Breath]
[Quality: Excellent (40%)]
[Purity: 40% (Side effect: Some parts of the body will grow fish scales)]
A Level 3 Aquatic Breath Crystal Core from inside the Zombie Fish’s head, nothing much to say about it; it wasn’t the type Wang Tao liked.
[Level 3 Crystal Core – Ascension]
[Quality: Excellent (80%)]
[Purity: 40% (Side effect: None)]
Another Level 3 Ascension Crystal Core!
Counting this one, Wang Tao now had four Level 3 Ascension Crystal Cores! One Excellent, three Excellent!
He hadn’t completed his collection of other Crystal Cores yet and had already finished the Ascension ones… which felt somewhat magical.
[Level 3 Crystal Core – Shockwave Dizziness]
[Quality: Excellent (60%)]
[Purity: 40% (Side effect: Mouth gets bigger)]
[Shockwave Dizziness: Can daze creatures for a long time (the duration of dizziness is related to the opponent’s spiritual power), but they will awaken if disturbed by external things]
This Crystal Core was the dizziness ability used by the Zombie Fish earlier. Its dizziness lasts for quite a while, but any major disturbance would wake the victims.
Moreover, the length of dizziness is related to the opponent’s spiritual power. If Jiang Shixue was unaffected, doesn’t that mean she had high spiritual power?
Even though it was the same type of dizziness, Wang Tao still preferred the earlier War Cry Ability.
As for the side effect, if one wasn’t too concerned about their appearance, it seemed ignorable, right?
[Level 3 Crystal Core – Corrosive Saliva]
[Quality: Excellent (80%)]
[Purity: 40% (Side effect: Belly gets bigger)]
[Corrosive Saliva: Stores one-tenth of the water ingested in the stomach and fuses it with stomach acid. The fused water can be spat out with strong corrosive properties]
This was the spouting water ability used by the Zombie Fish earlier, similar to the Spittle Nail; one spits food, and the other saliva.
Wang Tao felt that the success rate for fusing these two Abilities must be quite high. If he fused these two abilities, wouldn’t he be able to spit both projectiles and corrosive water? It seemed interesting to consider.
As for the last Crystal Core, it was a passive Ability.
[Level 3 Crystal Core – Swimming Champion]
[Quality: Epic (100%)]
[Purity: 40% (Side effect: Some parts of the body will grow fish scales)]
[Swimming Champion: Passive Ability, greatly increases swimming skills]
