Chapter 309: The Grand Finale
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“You’re not convinced?” A cold voice sounded.
Everyone felt their vision blur. Before the barking stopped, Medusa had already appeared beside the Cerberus.
The two were so close that the Cerberus’ nose had already touched the scales on Medusa’s body.
“Woof…”
Just as the Cerberus was about to bark, its middle head received a heavy punch. It was so painful that tears flowed down its face and its majestic howl turned into a whimper.
“You’re not convinced?”
Medusa still maintained her original posture. No one could see how she had attacked. Her speed was so fast that there were no afterimages.
“Woof!”
The Cerberus was furious. For thousands of years, no one had dared to offend its majesty.
Although it had not fully matured, it was still the uncrowned king in the Hundred Thousand Mountains. No one had ever dared to anger it.
With a bark, the pitch-black flames of hell swept up. From its four claws, it began to burn crazily.
The pitch-black smoke blotted out the sky and covered the sun. Countless black lines seemed to have life on its own as they swept toward Medusa.
“Buzz!” An ear-piercing buzz sounded.
Faced with the power of death that was about to wrap around her body, Medusa did not dodge or block. Instead, she gently opened her eyes.
The black lines that filled the sky seemed to have been strangled. Suddenly, they lost their strength in the air. Then, they began to shatter and collapse as if rocks that had been destroyed over time for countless years.
The effect of weathering was even going against the source of the black lines and continued to spread to the Cerberus’ body.
“Woof!”
The Cerberus’ six eyes were already filled with fear. Earlier, its claws were about to hit Medusa’s body, but now, as if it had encountered a plague, it retracted its claws in panic.
It used all its strength to summon the power of death in its body and desperately resisted this strange power of weathering.
“Eye of Petrification, is this the legendary power of time destruction? It can even corrode the three-headed Cerberus’ power of death?”
Angela looked at everything in front of her and was beyond shocked.
The three-headed Cerberus was a vicious beast recorded in the church’s canon. According to legends, a thousand years ago, a three-headed Cerberus had invaded the human world. It brought endless destruction and death.
In the end, it was the pope who paid the price of his life to summon the legendary Six-winged Seraph. He used the forbidden light spell, the twelve gospels of light, to drive it away.
The price was that the Six-winged Seraph burned itself to ashes.
The three-headed Cerberus had the power of death. Legend had it that it had an immortal body, so it was impossible to kill it.
Now, just by opening its eyes, Medusa had forced it to panic and keep barking. Even without the Beast Whisperer’s talent, it could feel the panic in its heart.
This was the fear of death. The Cerberus that represented death actually feared death?
“Are you convinced?” Medusa’s cold voice sounded again, without the slightest fluctuation of emotion. It was as if she really only opened her eyes and did not have any practical power.
“Awooo…”
The Cerberus crawled on the ground and let out a low whimper. It was like a child who had been wronged.
It was also like an unlucky person who was bullied and wanted to run but did not dare to. It was begging for forgiveness.
“Brother Locke, it said that it was convinced. It’s willing to give up its blood and hope that we can spare his life.” Angela quickly translated.
Such a Battle Beast that only existed in legends must have a trump card. If they forced it into a corner, it would have no choice but to risk its life. The consequences would be unimaginable.
“Are you convinced?” Medusa did not seem to hear Angela’s words and continued to ask coldly.
“Woo, woo, woo, woo!” This time, the Cerberus’ voice was even more pitiful.
The wind power had already corroded its body and some of its fur had even started to disappear. If it still did not give in, the next thing would be its head.
“Brother Locke, it said…”
Angela was so excited that she was about to translate, but was interrupted by Locke.
“It agreed to be my mount.” Locke completed the second half of its sentence.
It was not that he had suddenly awakened the ability of the Beast Whisperer, but it was because Medusa had already ridden on the Cerberus.
“Legend has it that only death can ride it. Isn’t that unlucky?” Angela asked softly.
“Woof!”
The Cerberus had very sensitive ears. When it heard Angela’s words, it quickly shook its head, indicating that these were all rumors.
To prove that it was an outstanding mount, it even started running on the spot. It was actually very stable.
Medusa sat cross-legged on its body and did not feel the slightest bit of turbulence.
“You guys aren’t satisfied?”
Medusa dismounted the Cerberus and turned to look at the Bronze Dragon beside it.
“Woo, woo!”
The Bronze Dragon shivered. In its nervousness, it even imitated the bark of a dog. It quickly landed on the ground and shrunk its body.
It stuck out a mouthful of blood essence in its palm and ran toward Locke.
“Give the Earth Bear’s blood essence to King Kong and the rest to Fallen Angel. With this blood essence, they’ll evolve very quickly. At that time, no matter where you are, even if I’m not by your side, you won’t be in danger again,” Locke said.
“Thank you, Brother Locke.”
Angela smiled sweetly and ran over to give Locke a passionate kiss on the cheek.
Fallen Angel felt the aura of these Battle Beasts and was so scared that it did not dare to move.
“After all, it’s an innate deficiency. There are some disadvantages to forcefully evolving through blood sacrifice. Fortunately, when you grow up and become stronger, you’ll slowly make up for it. Help her!”
Locke looked at Fallen Angel and felt a little disappointed.
“Yes, be good. When you eat it, you’ll become as powerful as them in the future.”
Angela carefully took the blood essence from the Battle Beast and fed it into Fallen Angel’s mouth.
After getting the blood essence, Fallen Angel’s body emitted black and white light. Its body could not help but tremble and its aura became stronger.
“Hahaha, my six-winged Flame Demon, are you finally going to be born? With it as your Battle Beast, it will definitely be able to help you rampage through the world. No one will be your match.”
A mysterious old man appeared. It was the fifth rank Beastmaster who had once poisoned Locke with the dragon tooth poison.
“It’s you. It seems that we don’t have to wait for the three-year agreement anymore.”
Locke turned around and saw the old man. The corners of his mouth curled up into a cruel smile.
For such a long time, Locke had never forgotten the humiliation of that day. He had thought that he would only have the chance to take revenge after three years. He had not expected to meet him here.
“It’s you. Why isn’t she dead? This is impossible. No one in the world can cure my dragon tooth poison.”
“No, why are you here?”
“This is the Earth Bear, the ancient Bronze Dragon, the Raging Flame Tiger, and the Cerberus!”
The rank 5 elder’s eyes almost popped out when he saw the Battle Beasts around him.
“Master, where are the Battle Beasts you prepared for me? Can I have this dragon?”
A middle-aged man with a gloomy face walked out. Seeing so many Battle Beasts present, he thought that the old man had prepared them for him. He even picked a fight with them.
“This is the opponent you prepared for me, your last disciple? He doesn’t look good.”
Locke glanced at the other party, a Beastmaster at the peak of rank 3.
In the eyes of others, he might be a good talent, but in Locke’s eyes, he was nothing.
“Who are you? How dare you talk to me like that? Do you know who I am?”
The man saw that Locke seemed to be very disdainful of him and was instantly enraged. He was prepared to self-expose his identity.
“Noisy!”
Locke snapped his fingers. The ancient Bronze Dragon beside him understood and opened its mouth to let out a dragon’s breath.
Whoosh!
A flame that could melt steel shot out, leaving only a charred figure on the spot. The body of the hidden man was directly burned into ashes.
“Looks like I won. Next, it’s your turn.”
Locke turned around and looked at the rank 5 elder.
“D*mn it!”
The rank 5 elder’s worldview was completely shattered by the scene in front of him.
Even in his dreams, he would never have thought that there was someone who could command an epic-level ancient Bronze Dragon.
He hurriedly summoned his Battle Beast. His body twisted and disappeared from everyone’s view.
“Spatial magic?” Angela asked in confusion.
“No, there are no traces of spatial fluctuations.” Hathaway looked around vigilantly. Back then, she was injured by the old man’s mysterious attack and she still had lingering fear.
“A mere rank 5 Battle Beast, the Chameleon, dares to show off in front of me. Cerberus, bite him.”
Locke saw through rank 5 elder’s trick with a glance and kicked the Cerberus beside him.
“Woof, woof, woof!”
The Cerberus received the order and pounced forward. It bit an empty spot.
Following a scream, a figure covered in blood fell out of the void. It was the rank 5 elder who had just disappeared.
The rank 5 elder held a dagger in his hand. It seemed like he was not giving up and was preparing to launch a sneak attack.
“I’ll give it to you.”
Locke no longer had any interest in fighting the elder. The difference in strength between the two was so great that they did not even have the interest to torture him.
The Cerberus received the order and bit its lips. The rank 5 elder was crushed like a doll.
Following the old man’s death, the dragon tooth poison in Locke’s body also disappeared.
“Locke, are you alright?!” Hathaway gently hugged Locke.
After getting his revenge, Locke did not seem happy at all.
“I’m fine. I was just thinking about where we would go in the future. This trip to the Hundred Thousand Mountains was originally to take refuge. I didn’t expect it to end up like this.”
“With my current strength, I don’t know who else in the entire continent can be my opponent. I suddenly feel a little lost,” Locke smiled and said.
“This place is actually very good! With Medusa and the others, we’ll never encounter danger again. And we also have the little langurs to help us brew monkey wine. Why don’t we stay here?”
Angela could see that Locke was a little tired of the outside world’s struggles, so she deliberately said this. She was a saintess, but she gave her body to Locke. Plus, she was a Beast Whisperer.
If they left this place, they would face the church’s endless pursuit.
“This place is very good, I like it too.”
Hathaway understood Angela’s meaning, and hugged Locke as she giggled.
Besides his enemies, Locke had a lot of romantic debts. If she stayed here, she could have this man all to herself. It was not a bad idea after all.
“In that case, let’s stay here for the time being!”
Locke looked into the distance, thinking about something.
The end of the book.
