Chapter 1778: Chapter 1778

Du You never expected that an eighth-tier powerful opponent could be so reckless. If the opponent had even a little tactical skill, he could calmly complete his setup, but it seemed the opponent had used all their skill in applying their strength.

Seeing the opponent charge forward again, Du You felt a bit frustrated; he didn’t want to be knocked away again.

"It seems relying solely on myself might not be enough," Du You thought silently.

Originally, he wanted to use his own strength to eliminate the opponent. As his power gradually increased, Du You was becoming more confident in himself. But now, it seemed a bit troublesome.

Du You remained very confident in his own strength. He could indeed deal with the opponent by himself, but it would start off a bit embarrassingly and consume a considerable amount of time. Whether he could finally make the opponent stay was uncertain.

It’s not that the opponent’s strength was particularly strong, Du You understood this well; it was just that the opponent had a mount. Using special means to stack their powers, the opponent’s solid strength was approaching his own.

Dragging this battle on the battlefield would inevitably create trouble. If others came to assist, it would be even more difficult to handle.

Unlike the Beastmen, who use fierce battles to ignite their fighting spirit and improve themselves, Du You needed to defeat his opponent to obtain loot boxes and plunder resources by killing them.

Therefore, taking down the opponent was Du You’s goal. Watching the opponent charge crazily again, Du You simply released his summoned beast. "Not only do you have a mount, but I also have a summoned beast."

As Du You spoke, a gigantic figure appeared before him. The Death Gorilla, upon appearing, enlarged its body size. With its two hands, it grabbed the Saber-Toothed Elephant’s tusks. The sharp tusks were of no use to the Death Gorilla, completely unable to pierce its skin. Meanwhile, the poison from the Death Gorilla seemed to be blocked by the Saber-Toothed Elephant.

An immense force erupted, turning the ground beneath them into a large pit immediately. Those professionals and Beastmen close by didn’t know how many were blown away. Fortunately, everyone was strong enough, and at least no one died.

"Ha, I didn’t expect you were also a beast tamer. Or rather, as you call it, a Summoner. To elevate your summoned beast to this level, you are indeed remarkable."

The Tiger Person could sense that the creature in front of him wasn’t just a pet but a summoned beast. As he spoke, his hands didn’t stop moving, and his spear struck fiercely at the Death Gorilla’s head. However, the massive recoil made the Tiger Person realize that the defense of the creature in front of him was completely different from what he had imagined.

The immense power couldn’t breach the opponent’s defense; not even a single hair was harmed.

For magic-class professionals, it seemed common to have a defense-oriented summoned beast.

But before he could make another move, an even larger figure appeared beside him; this time, it was the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs.

"I don’t have the time to play with you slowly, let me show you my summoning abilities," Du You exhaled, as the two summoned beasts started a fierce battle with the opponent.

Furious fighting erupted, with waves of shockwaves spreading in all directions.

The Death Gorilla’s defense was such that even with full force, the opponent could only barely make a mark, leaving a slight scar on the Death Gorilla. Unfortunately, this scar was insignificant to the Death Gorilla.

However, the opponent had to be careful with the Death Gorilla’s venom, as the consequences would be dire if poisoned.

Meanwhile, the power of the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs stunned the Saber-Toothed Elephant, rarely seeing a giant beast more powerful than itself. The Saber-Toothed Elephant acted like a hedgehog, reflecting damage with each attack it received.

But the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs were too large, and the injuries were like mere scratches. Furthermore, as an undead creature, the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs didn’t care about whether it was injured. The Tiger Person and the Saber-Toothed Elephant couldn’t even make the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs pause in their assault.

The passive abilities on its body activated, with Flowing Fire continuously scorching, significantly draining the Elephant Venerable’s power.

The Elephant Venerable could feel his strength dwindling rapidly, and his heart filled with caution. His own strength was fine, but the strength of his elephant depended on its stamina converted into power.

"As I thought," Du You laughed. He had speculated as such during the earlier attack.

This Elephant Venerable’s strength was akin to Elsa’s, elevated from Holy Beast Yuan Power, not from ordinary Dou Qi. As for the giant elephant, its synergy with Yuan Power suggested its strength wasn’t from a special energy. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩⚫𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢⚫𝔫𝔢𝔱

Its power was derived from self-stamina conversion, similar to the Death Gorilla. This power created through stamina conversion was very pure and dominant, capable of combining with various forces.

Now that a monster like the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs, capable of absorbing stamina, appeared, it effectively countered the opponent. The two summoned beasts worked together to forcefully restrain the Elephant Venerable in place.

"Damn, have the guts to face me head-on. What kind of warrior uses such despicable methods?"

The Elephant Venerable, after triggering another Hellfire Spider trap, couldn’t suppress his rage any longer.

Du You had set up numerous Hellfire Spider traps around. These fire spiders would explode upon contact with him but remained inert against his foes. Some Hellfire Spiders clung directly to the two summoned beasts, using their contact to stick to the opponent for an explosive effect. The Elephant Venerable felt his power depleting more rapidly.

Without the power to maintain his layer of defense, he lacked the confidence to face a powerful mage.

These damned professionals always had so many tactics, and today there were even more.

Du You smiled: "I am not a warrior, to begin with. If you have what it takes, come at me yourself; what’s the point of relying on a mount?"

"A mount and its rider are one entity," the other retorted.

Du You sneered, "So, are my summoned beasts not a part of me?" Such double standards. While Du You didn’t understand his opponent’s rules or mindset, saying such things was truly shameless.

With differing values, the Elephant Venerable felt Du You was incredibly shameless.

As time passed, Du You noticed the opponent’s strength was depleting swiftly. This combat style was never efficient, combined with the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs’ power absorption; lasting this long already proved the opponent’s thick reserves of power.

Unfortunately, he wasn’t like Du You, who had recovery skills, meaning the risk of power exhaustion remained.
