Chapter 620: The Shock 24K Created
“Hm? Wait… this one is Elite-Grade.”
Other than having some doubts about its appearance, as it had a brain that looked like a snake growing insect-like legs which looked like a jet beetle.
Some people also noticed that the one which came out of the black hole was an Elite-Grade monster.
With 24K’s summoning ability, it naturally attracted many participating player’s attention.
This was especially when everyone’s goal upon reaching the island was for the Quasi-Boss pet Chips.
A pet that had abnormal powers to summon wild creatures had received quite a lot of attention.
However, due to the ten Blade Beetles that Feng Luo summoned from before, they were all Commander-Grade monsters. Although their levels were not low, they are Commander-Grade monsters where, in reality, their combat powers were not very powerful.
After evaluation, a lot of people thought that, without considering 24K’s reconnaissance capability, its combat power should be at the level of a Commander-Grade pet.
Although they were curious about 24K’s mystical summoning ability, they did not observe its detailed attributes.
Even so, a pet with combat strength at Commander-Grade, for players of their caliber, it would not make them super envious.
However, upon discovering that 24K’s summoning of another new monster, it was still Elite-Grade.
Other than Feng Luo and Big Pineapple, it caught most of their attention.
That was because, in theory, a Commander-Grade pet’s combat strength was comparable to an Elite-Grade wild creature. However, this Jet Beetle was a social monster, hence its strength would be weaker, but even then, it was still an Elite-Grade monster.
“Since it was able to summon those ten Blade Beetles, then for these Elite-Grade Jet Beetles, how many can it summon?” Green Arrow asked as she stared at the black hole on the ground.
However, what made her surprised was, other than that Elite-Grade Jet Beetle which crawled out from that black hole, there were no other beetles that crawled out.
“Could it be because of the wild monster being Elite-Grade, then it was only able to summon one. That way, why not just summon ten Commander-Grade monsters, wouldn’t that be more useful?” However, she knew she guessed wrong right after.
The reason only one was summoned was that Feng Luo simply just wanted to test it.
After the first Elite-Grade Jet Beetle came out, it quickly raised its neck and faced that alloyed door, and spat out a trail of green “saliva.”
“Psh!”
After the saliva of the Jet Beetle hit the alloyed door, it immediately started a reaction.
With the naked eye, you could tell the position at which the alloyed door was hit by the saliva, where it gave off huge, thick bubbles and white smoke, as it formed corroded traces.
As the saliva flowed down due to gravity, and the area of corrosion expanded exponentially.
The Jet Beetle’s strong toxic and corrosive abilities, no matter whether it was Armored or Energy Shield, it would be able to corrode. This alloy door was sturdy in its material, but against this corrosive toxic attack, it did not have enough resistance.
“There is an effect, however, because this door was too thick the amount of toxic saliva it required to corrode the door is not estimated to be this low.” Clear Sky’s face had some joy, then he turned and looked at Feng Luo as his tone carried some inquiry.
The effect of Jet Beetle’s saliva was indeed not bad.
However, from the body area of this Level-42 Elite-Grade Jet Beetle, at most, it could only spit a few more times before its saliva runs out. If they want to break down this door, they would need a lot more Jet Beetles.
“Tsk!”
Feng Luo did not say anything, he only gave a signal to the 24K on his shoulder, the black hole on the ground formed a green shadow once again.
“Another Elite-Grade Jet Beetle, it could continue summoning.” Green Arrow looked at this new Level-39 Elite-Grade Jet Beetle appearing, as she thought to herself.
However, following that, her eyes widened.
After the second Jet Beetle appeared, the Jet Beetles crawling out of the black hole did not cease, but instead, more Jet Beetles continued crawling out.
One beetle, two beetles, three beetles…
When the number of the Elite Grade Jet Beetles reached five, other than Big Pineapple and Feng Luo, the other five people were surprised yet again.
This was because, in theory, these five Elite-Grade monsters, even if it was a social monster, its combat strength would still be comparable to at least one Commander-Grade pet.
Compared to the combat style of a common Commander-Grade pet, being able to summon beetles with different features, 24K’s practicality was a lot higher.
Just based on this point, 24K was already superior to the majority of the Commander-Grade pets.
Most importantly, the green shadows which were crawling out of the black hole did not cease.
Six beetles, seven beetles, eight beetles…
After one minute, there were 15 Jet Beetles, as they lined up in front of the alloyed door, they split towards the door vigorously.
Trails of green liquid, as it flowed down the alloy door, the door was quickly corroded, which was originally unbreakable.
Upon seeing 15 beetles, which were lining up and spiting their saliva onto the door, the other five people, other than Sword Ki Long River, who was naturally quiet, suddenly did not want to say anything anymore.
15 wild monsters which averaged out to Level-40, and despite half of which were Commander-Grade monsters.
Purely based on combat strength, it has completely exceeded Commander-Grade pets, they could be considered as a Quasi-Boss Grade pet.
However, quickly afterward, they then discovered that they would also need to remove that possibility afterward.
After three minutes of the 15 Jet Beetles spitting, the first Jet Beetle’s belly sac, which stored the toxin, was completely empty.
At this moment, the thick alloyed door was already corroded by one third.
The first Jet Beetle, after finishing using all of its saliva, turned and crawled back into its black hole. After a few seconds, a new Elite-Grade Jet Beetle with a full stomach re-crawled out of the black hole.
“In that summoned hole, they can refill their toxins?”
“No, this beetle’s level and the first’s are not the same… it could change its summons in the middle of combat?”
The people who initially thought that this Jet Beetle was the same as the one which crawled back in, after noticing the level of this beetle, gained a message which made them feel bittersweetness.
Only 15 social monsters, based on combat strength, might only exceed Commander-Grade monsters and still not reach a Quasi-Boss Grade pet.
If they add this beetle, which was exchanged in the middle of the battle, then wouldn’t it be comparable to the combat strength of a Quasi-Boss.
A Quasi-Boss pet? How many of these can they find during the entire wartime?
At this moment, other than the guild, isn’t everyone coming for the Quasi-Boss pet Chips?
As for Boss-Grade Chips, whether there were any in these wastelands, it was still an unknown number.
After the first Elite-Grade Jet Beetle changed shift, the second and third ones followed right after.
After the 15 Elite-Grade Jet Beetles from the first wave emptied their stomachs, the black hole did not have any new Jet Beetles crawling out to “switch shifts” with them.
That was because, at this moment, the alloy door was already corroded by two thirds. Upon calculation, they did not require any more Jet Beetles.
…
After spending around half an hour, where two waves of Jet Beetles finished all of their stored toxins.
This final alloy door blocking the way into the main research base, under the detection of the Scouts, was finally corroded down to a thin layer.
“Click!”
Sword Ki Long River walked directly in front, as the golden legendary alloy sword swung, directly breaking through the now thin door, creating an entrance.
He shook his hands, retracted the blade, and slashed again.
Quickly, a hole in this door opened which was sufficient for an entire person to pass through.
“Tick!”
However, after this alloy door completely opened, in the complete darkness within the base, a pair of red dots were aggressively flashing.
“Intruder discovered, intruder discovered, recognizing identity, it belongs to people who don’t have access permission! Warning! Intruder, leave NG-164 Research Base Scope in ten seconds, or else they will be given armed deportation. Warning…”
At the same time, a series of machinery noises started to ring.
