Beast Taming: Sequence Evolution

Chapter 251 : Summoning the Giant Frog

Chapter 251: Summoning the Giant Frog

The Scorpion-Lion rode the Scorpion-Tailed Lion, holding a golden great spear, and charged toward the battlefield like a mountain torrent erupting.

The berserk momentum instantly caused the battlefield to freeze for a split second.

“Dulag, your time of death has come.”

The heavily injured Wild Lion, lying on the ground, saw the Scorpion-Lion descending from afar like a falling boulder. Blood spilled from his mouth, yet ecstasy instantly surged across his face.

After all, if one could live, who would willingly give up their life?

Previously, he and Bone Fang had risked their lives resisting Dulag because the Wild Lion understood his character. Even if he and Bone Fang chose to submit, Dulag would sooner or later find an opportunity to eliminate them.

“A mid-level Beast Knight, under the suppression of the Tamu World Will, is still not enough to save your lowly lives.”

Sensing the aura emanating from the Scorpion-Lion, the Frogman Dulag revealed a cold smile, secretly pleased that his scheme had succeeded.

The repeated appearances of powerful enemies at the mine had all been orchestrated by him behind the scenes, in order to exhaust the number of times the Duanmu Family’s High-level Professional Beast Tamers could enter the Tamu World.

Once the three entry opportunities into the Tamu World were used up, if they forcibly entered again, not only would their strength be suppressed by more than half by the Tamu World Will, but an invisible misfortune would also shroud them.

As a Bloodline Warlock within the Spellcaster system, most of his spellcasting abilities relied on his own bloodline. However, in terms of knowledge, he was still far more learned than the Wild Lion and the others.

Although he was certain the Scorpion-Lion had not yet advanced to High-level Beast Knight, Dulag remained cautious. He ignored the Wild Lion and Bone Fang and directly used his trump card.

As an ancient scroll filled with archaic aura was opened by Dulag, he began chanting a spell brimming with mysterious energy.

If translated into the language of Blue Star, its meaning was:

“Following the ancient contract, with the origin of the Giant Frog bloodline as witness, Guardian of the Frogmen, descend upon this place.”

Although the translation sounded somewhat plain and lacked the mysterious resonance and unique energy fluctuations contained within the original incantation, that was roughly its meaning.

In the next instant, several streams of water burst from the ground around Dulag’s feet, as if hidden springs had been fully opened.

As the fountain-like phenomenon emerged, the summoning formation concealed within revealed spatial fluctuations. Five Giant Frogs, each three meters tall, appeared—every one of them possessing the strength of a High-tier Ferocious Beast.

Facing the charging Scorpion-Lion, the Giant Frogs opened their massive mouths. Water-element Energy Particles condensed within, and azure water spheres blasted forth like cannon shells.

The aura of death permeating the water spheres immediately sent nearby warriors fleeing in desperation. At this moment, no one dared to remain and watch.

Seeing this scene, the Scorpion-Lion showed no panic. Instead, he raised the golden great spear high.

“A’Yue.”

He called out loudly to his beast. The Scorpion-Tailed Lion beneath him seemed to understand his master’s intent, its fearsome scorpion tail rising high behind it.

“Mountain Sundering.”

As the golden great spear thrust forward, the Scorpion-Tailed Lion’s steel scorpion tail struck in unison.

At that moment, the golden spear and the iron scorpion tail seemed to merge into one. A colossal lion phantom enveloped the Scorpion-Lion and his beast.

In the distance, Zhou Ming, who had been observing, immediately lit up with interest.

“So this is the inherited pairing technique mastered by major forces? The Scorpion-Lion hasn’t even advanced to War Knight, yet he has already vaguely grasped a combined strike skill.”

However, compared to the Scorpion-Lion’s displayed methods, Zhou Ming was more interested in the summoning spell used by the Frogman Warlock.

Since it was not yet time for him to act, Zhou Ming decided to observe the Scorpion-Lion’s strength and conveniently collect data on the bloodline warlocks of the Tamu World.

Boom—

In an instant, the Scorpion-Lion collided with the water cannons spat by the Giant Frogs. A scene resembling heavy artillery bombardment erupted across the mine, causing the mountains to tremble and the earth to shake.

As the violent explosion subsided, the Scorpion-Lion rode the Scorpion-Tailed Lion and leapt out from the cloud of dust. The power he had been accumulating for so long burst forth instantly.

A dazzling golden spear radiance tore through the void, directly sending one Giant Frog flying.

The remaining Giant Frogs did not sit idly by. Their massive tongues shot out like siege crossbow bolts, stabbing toward the Scorpion-Lion.

Facing the attack, the Scorpion-Tailed Lion swiftly evaded, carrying its master straight toward Dulag.

Having just expended Spiritual Power and bloodline energy to summon the Giant Frogs, Dulag understood the formidable close-combat capabilities of Beast Knights. Enduring his weakness, he immediately cast Berserk Spell and Bloodthirst Spell upon the Giant Frogs, enhancing their power.

The Giant Frog that had been sent flying regained vitality under Dulag’s spell enhancements and charged once more at the Scorpion-Lion.

The spear swept horizontally, the scorpion tail stabbed sharply. The Scorpion-Lion and his beast were perfectly attuned in mind and spirit, coordinating flawlessly. Even against five Giant Frogs with strength comparable to High-tier Ferocious Beasts, he managed with ease.

However, once Dulag consumed a potion that restored Spiritual Power, the Scorpion-Lion’s situation instantly reversed.

“Touch of Weakness.”

A gray ray of light appeared, and the previously valiant Scorpion-Lion suddenly felt overwhelming fatigue.

The low-tier curse spell Touch of Weakness could devour the vitality of flesh-and-blood beings, rapidly diminishing their strength.

With Dulag’s strength as a High-level Bloodline Warlock, ordinary people struck by Touch of Weakness had a high probability of sudden death.

Although the spell’s effect on the Scorpion-Lion was not too severe, it was enough to alter the balance of the battlefield. After all, the Giant Frogs’ strength was already comparable to that of a mid-level Beast Tamer.

If an ordinary mid-level Beast Tamer faced the Giant Frogs under the suppression of the Tamu World Will, they would have long since been decapitated.

From this clash alone, it was evident that Beast Tamers backed by major forces and equipped with paired inheritances were far stronger than ordinary Beast Tamers.

Just as the Scorpion-Tailed Lion was sent flying by a Giant Frog’s long tongue, Zhou Ming finally chose to intervene.

If he did not act now, the resources he had secured might very well be reclaimed by the Scorpion-Lion.

As the ground suddenly began to tremble, a Dark-gold Purple-patterned Python with a body length of thirty meters burst forth from beneath the earth. Its truck-sized head immediately swallowed one of the three-meter-tall Giant Frogs.

Even under the suppression of the Tamu World Will, the Dark-gold Purple-patterned Python’s size remained terrifying.

Its massive body and ferocious, domineering appearance plunged the mine—where slaughter had raged moments before—into complete silence the instant it appeared.

“How is this possible? There are still High-level Professional Beast Tamers within the Duanmu Family who can enter the Tamu World?”

Dulag had considered the possibility that the Duanmu Family might seek external assistance. However, this mine was one of their key resource sites. Unless absolutely necessary, they would never expose it.

Dulag’s shock did not hinder the Dark-gold Purple-patterned Python’s actions.

Facing the Giant Frogs as though hunting prey, the frogs had no ability to resist. They were directly swallowed into its belly, transformed into energy to nourish the snake swarm.

“Ten Thousand Snakes, did you only decide to help when you saw me suffering losses?”

The Scorpion-Lion, his body faintly aching, saw Zhou Ming walking over and immediately expressed his dissatisfaction.

Yet when he saw the Dark-gold Purple-patterned Python’s colossal body, he could no longer associate it with the one-meter-long black snake he had once seen.

“I thought you could handle it, so I didn’t want to steal your spotlight. Who knew you weren’t up to it?”

“You…”

Hearing Zhou Ming’s teasing, the Scorpion-Lion instantly felt the urge to curse.

If I could handle it, why would I have paid the price to ask you to intervene?
