My Pet Beast is Super Fearsome-Chapter 77 - 76: Zhang Shuizheng (2/2)
Chapter 77: Chapter 76: Zhang Shuizheng (2/2)
Clusters of green seeds squeezed from the flower buds of the great antler tree, trailing long streaks of light as they individually struck the two giant bears and the crowd belonging to Bald Qiang.
The seeds shattered the instant they touched them, sprouting vines that wrapped around their waists and emitted a faint green glow.
The antler flower tree instantaneously shattered, turning into specks of starlight that dissipated into nothingness.
The young deer collapsed to the ground at the sound, quickly cradled in the arms of Shao Zifeng.
It weakly closed its eyes and gently licked Shao Zifeng’s large hand with its tender pink tongue.
“Rest for now,” Shao Zifeng gently patted the deer’s body.
Under the continuous Healing of the Life Seed, the wounds on the two giant bears healed at a visibly rapid pace. They excitedly let out a massive roar and clashed with the Blood-sucking Tarantula once more.
The students of Class Four cheered and looked at Shao Zifeng with grateful eyes.
Seeing the skill take effect, Shao Zifeng nodded at Bald Qiang, “Take care.”
Bald Qiang paused briefly, then clenched his fist, pounding his chest heavily and cracking a relieved smile.
…
Shao Zifeng gave a quick glance around; the Blood-sucking Tarantulas here were all rank three, and their numbers were relatively few. As a rank four battle pet, with the continuous Healing from the Life Seed, Bear Two should be able to lead everyone out of the sewer without incident.
For that reason, the students’ emotions gradually stabilized. Even though some were still anxious, they were no longer paralyzed with fear and could use Bear Two’s protection for some practical combat training for their own pets.
Though individually weak, their numbers were large, capable of relieving a significant part of the pressure on Bear Two.
Seeing this, Shao Zifeng felt a slight relief, carrying the young deer and following behind the group at a leisurely pace.
“Shao classmate, your Plum Deer’s skill is amazing. Can you add one to my pet too, so my little baby can also show off?” Zhang Shuizheng suddenly ran up to Shao Zifeng, curious as he looked at the young deer, clicking his tongue in wonder.
Class leader Sun Qiang opened his mouth but said nothing, instead turning back to direct his own little shepherd dog in battle, hoping in his heart that Shao Zifeng would apply the Life Seed to his pet as well.
A few girls meanwhile pursed their lips, their looks conveying a mix of disdain and scorn.
Shao Zifeng looked at the person before him, somewhat recalling that his pet was a rank one leopard cat, a decent pet in a place like Su City.
But from the start of the battle, he had been shirking his duties, and later simply used the excuse of his leopard cat being injured to recall his pet to the pet space.
Shao Zifeng didn’t like him standing so close, slowed his pace and with a distant smile said, “The deer is too exhausted, and maintaining the skill effect requires effort, so I’m sorry.”
He wasn’t just making up an excuse; although the Life Seed was a continuous recovery skill, it did have a duration. Therefore, to maintain the skill effect for a long time, the deer needed periodic energy supply.
The consumption wasn’t large, but it couldn’t release other skills for a while.
After all, it was still just a newborn baby.
“Tsk, if you don’t want to help, just say it. It’s just releasing a skill,” Zhang Shuizheng scoffed, then his eyes gleamed, “How about this, Shao classmate? If you add a skill to my pet, I’ll stay by your side to protect you. It’s very dangerous for a Combat Training Master with Healing abilities like yourself to be here.”
He figured since Shao Zifeng was about his age, he wouldn’t have the energy to train a second pet.
Shao Zifeng looked at the two-faced man before him with disgust, ignored him, and kept walking. If it weren’t for the situation slowly stabilizing and his inability to leave just yet, he truly wouldn’t want to stick with a group of liabilities.
After all, he owed them nothing.
“Hey, I’m just saying… ah.”
Zhang Shuizheng was about to continue speaking when suddenly a dish-sized black shadow swooped down from above, its two sharp forelimbs instantly piercing Zhang Shuizheng’s neck.
“Save… save… ack…”
Zhang Shuizheng, trying to talk to Shao Zifeng, walked behind everyone, and once Shao Zifeng quickly overtook him, he was left behind alone, which presented a golden opportunity for the Blood-sucking Tarantula that had been lurking overhead.
The odd noises from behind caught the attention of the students in front, and several strong flashlights instantly shone on the scene.
In the horrified gazes of everyone, the fluffy Blood-sucking Tarantula suddenly pulled out its forelimb from Zhang Shuizheng’s neck, and blood sprayed wildly from the wound.
Zhang Shuizheng knelt on the ground, his hands clutching his neck where the artery’s blood could not be stopped, spurting through his fingers, splattering the sewer walls, and then coagulating as it slid down.
He looked up at Shao Zifeng pleadingly, barely opening his mouth to say something when blood poured out like it cost nothing.
This scene happened too suddenly.
Even Shao Zifeng was unprepared. He was not far in front of Zhang Shuizheng, and the blood that sprayed stained his pants, the disgusting warmth discomforting him greatly.
“Quick, everyone, stand together and recall your pets,” Shao Zifeng shouted, backing quickly toward the crowd.
Like awakening from a dream, everyone chaotically clumped together, recalling their pets that were fighting at the front and shining their bright lights around nervously in fear of more Blood-sucking Tarantulas suddenly appearing.
Zhang Shuizheng’s breath grew ever fainter, and he listlessly dropped his head.
The tarantula’s hind limbs gripped his neck, its forelimbs extended threateningly, snapping at the crowd with menacing sounds.
Unlike the time Sun Wan was killed, too far away to see clearly, this time, all his classmates watched Zhang Shuizheng die right before their eyes.
Sun Qiang, as the class leader, already felt more pressure than the others; the continuous death of two classmates overwhelmed him, his eyes bloodshot as he furiously stared at the tarantula, grinning triumphantly while gripping Zhang Shuizheng’s neck. “Everyone, prepare to attack; do not damage Zhang Shuizheng’s body. Little Wolfhound, use ‘tear and bite,’” he ordered.
“Woof-hmm~”
Hearing his master’s command, the Little Wolfhound crouched, bared its teeth, then pushed off with its hind legs, lunging at the tarantula as a black blur.
Seeing the Little Wolfhound attack, the tarantula’s eight eyes glinted with madness. It let go of Zhang Shuizheng’s neck and leaped high, extending its sharp forelimbs to slash a bloody mark on the Little Wolfhound just as it brushed past.
“Awoo~ Woof woof.”
The Little Wolfhound landed unsteadily, tumbling onto the ground, rolling in the mud, and continuously howling in pain.
“Don’t be careless, this mutant creature is second tier,” Shao Zifeng quickly reminded Sun Qiang lest he lose his senses.
At this, Sun Qiang blinked, his anger subsiding a bit, “Everyone, attack together, don’t prolong the fight, grind it down,” he ordered.
Hearing this, everyone nodded and began directing their pets.
Dozens of small pets continuously circled the tarantula, occasionally launching attacks before quickly retreating.
The tarantula cried out furiously, utterly helpless.
As injuries accumulated on the tarantula and its movements slowed down, the group’s eyes brightened, and their tense emotions gradually eased.
“Roar!!!”
Just then, a painful howl erupted from Big Bear in the distance.
The vines on everyone glowed intensely with fluctuating light.
Little Deer frowned, struggling to maintain the skill.

Eventually, after a severe tremor, the vines burst into light points and disappeared.
