Chapter 135 - 135 Water Arrow Frog (Bonus)
Bonus Chapter 100 power stone
They cursed themselves for being blinded by the allure of the Hell Nether Bloom and for their misfortune in encountering a foe capable of limiting their speed.
Yet, it was too late for any regrets. Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang! The Purple Eyed Tyrant continued to swing its Scepter. Each strike wasn't particularly fast, but it hit the Ink Deer with precision. After five consecutive strikes, all the Ink Deer lay defeated.
The Purple Eyed Tyrant had proven its might through its actions. "Well done!" Watching from outside the arena, Ethen couldn't help but applaud. Senior Alif's performance was always so inspiring.
Inside the Grand Horizon Colosseum. Mila had successfully harvested the Hell Nether Flower, but she did not choose to have ""Green Vine"" consume it immediately.
According to the ""Pharmacological Dictionary"", when dark type magical beasts consume the Hell Nether Flower, it's best to assist with some other materials to neutralize its effects, making it safer.
During their trip to the Grand Horizon Colosseum, Mila had not carried any extra materials; all three of them had left their surplus materials with Ethen.
Mila planned to wait until after today's competition to gather the materials before feeding ""Green Vine"" the Hell Nether Flower.
After successfully acquiring the Hell Nether Flower, Alif and the others did not linger in the area and chose to proceed further.
They entered a nearby valley. As soon as they entered the valley, the trio encountered the second wave of wild monsters.
""Water Arrow Frog""!
The three encountered an extremely agile Water Arrow Frog. This Water Arrow Frog was at Bronze Level 8, making it one of the more powerful magical beasts.
From a distance, Scent Seeking Butterfly detected the scent of the Water Arrow Frog and immediately reported its appearance to Mila.
Mila quickly informed Fuad and Alif about this. Upon hearing it was a Water Arrow Frog, the two obviously perked up. Fuad, in particular, was especially excited.
The heart of the Water Arrow Frog is a renowned medicinal material known as ""Water Arrow Frog Heart"", which provides excellent enhancement effects for stone type battle pets.
If they could kill the Water Arrow Frog and obtain its heart, Fuad's Vine Stone Giant had a real chance to break through and advance further. "I must get the heart of this Water Arrow Frog!" Fuad declared to Alif.
Alif understood very well what the Water Arrow Frog's heart meant for Fuad. He nodded gently, then signaled the team to swiftly move toward the location of the Water Arrow Frog, guided by the Scent Seeking Butterfly.
At this moment, the Water Arrow Frog had no idea that the Black Falcons team had set their sights on it. Its attention was drawn to a ""Bouncing Kiwi"" that was about to ripen.
The Bouncing Kiwi is a specialty fruit found in the Grand Horizon Colosseum, and it is quite rare. It contains a large amount of ""elasticity factors"".
If a battle pet consumes the Bouncy Kiwi, it can significantly enhance its jumping ability. This is common knowledge covered in the university's Herbal Medicine and Supplies course, so everyone is aware of it.
The Water Arrow Frog has two major tricks: its lethal water arrows and its extraordinary jumping ability. Despite its small size, standing only about 20 centimeters tall, its jumping capability is astonishing, able to leap up to 6 meters. This means it can jump about 30 times its own height, which is truly remarkable.
It is precisely due to its incredible jumping power that the Water Arrow Frog has carved out its own territory in the competitive environment of the Grand Horizon Colosseum. Upon seeing the Bouncy Kiwi, which could further enhance its jumping attributes, the Water Arrow Frog was immediately tempted.
However, the Bouncy Kiwi differs from ordinary fruits in that it is quite agile; if it senses danger, it can escape by bouncing away. Therefore, the Water Arrow Frog dared not act rashly. It quietly lay in ambush, motionless, waiting for the Bouncy Kiwi to ripen so it could capture it in one swift move. At this moment, the Bouncy Kiwi was about five minutes away from ripening.
Due to the Water Arrow Frog's stealthy presence, the swamp area was unusually quiet. Soon, the Black Falcons team arrived nearby.
"Stop!" Mila warned. She frowned because, according to the information from the Scent Seeking Butterfly, the Water Arrow Frog was lying still ahead. Given the nature of amphibian magical beasts, such stillness was rare. This likely indicated that it was lurking, ready to hunt. To avoid alarming the target, Mila quickly halted the team's advance.
"Mila, what's wrong?" Fuad asked, looking at her with some confusion. Mila immediately shared the Scent Seeking Butterfly's findings with her two teammates.
"You mean to say that the Water Arrow Frog is likely in ambush, hunting?" Fuad asked.
"Yes, there's a high probability of that. If we continue advancing as a team, we might disturb it. As you know, encountering a Water Arrow Frog is rare, and if we scare it away..." Mila looked at Fuad with some concern.
She understood the significance of the Water Arrow Frog's heart for Fuad, which is why she had been extremely cautious throughout the journey, worried that any mistake on her part might dash Fuad's hopes.
Upon hearing this, Fuad also frowned. He knew that Mila's concerns were valid.
If the three of them continued to advance so blatantly, they would certainly be detected by the Water Arrow Frog. Given its jumping ability, escaping their pursuit in the swamp wouldn't be difficult for the Water Arrow Frog.
"Here's the plan: you two stay here in hiding, and I'll go deal with the Water Arrow Frog," Alif suggested suddenly.
Hearing this, both Fuad and Mila looked at Alif. It was indeed a viable plan! Fuad's battle pet, the Vine Stone Giant, was enormous and caused a lot of commotion, making it unsuitable for a stealth attack.
