Chapter 988: Chapter 989 Stone Elental Elf_1 Chapter 988: Chapter 989 Stone Elental Elf_1 “A Storm Lord?” Song Jian was taken aback, hearing this term for the first ti. A mutated unicorn was just a mount he had; could it also beco a lord?
“Could it be that a re mount can beco a lord, just like ?” Song Jian couldn’t help but ask.
“Of course,” Guyar nodded and said, “In this world, any creature, even any elental being, is qualified to beco a lord. It’s just that the more powerful the creature, the higher the likelihood they’ll beco a lord. In fact, there are many non-human species that are powerful lords in this world, so of whom have lived for over a thousand years with formidable power, comparable to the gods of legend.”
“And the Storm Lord is one of them,” Guyar continued, “Normal air elentals have a certain chance to evolve into greater air elentals upon reaching their maximum level. After that, greater air elentals have a one in ten thousand chance to evolve into lightning elentals, beings that control the power of thunder and lightning. Lightning elentals that continue to enhance themselves, given extraordinary opportunities, have a slight chance to beco a Storm Lord. It is said that in the distant Kingdom of Clouds, a Storm Lord exists…”
“It can be said that any creature with the attribute of lightning has the potential to beco a Storm Lord, and so does your mount,” Guyar said.
Song Jian nodded, though he didn’t really care. After all, he had co to this world only to participate in an assessnt and advance to the second tier of combat power. He would soon leave, and only if he were to stay in this world would he be interested in cultivating his mount into a Storm Lord. The very thought of it felt thrilling.
Along the way, Guyar and Song Jian chatted continuously, enjoying a harmonious relationship. Through these conversations, Song Jian learned many secrets about the world, knowledge that the City Lord Mansion would not have recorded, known only to an experienced old mage like Guyar.
“City Lord, up ahead is the Mire Swamp, a paradise for earth elentals,” an excited expression appeared in Guyar’s eyes.
Although Guyar was also a hero, the army he led had a chaotic array of troop types: there were over a dozen mage apprentices, seven or eight iron golems constructed of steel, and several gargoyles made entirely of rock.
Song Jian suddenly rembered the information from the City Lord Mansion; these troop types seed to belong to a faction called the Tower, so it appeared that Guyar was a hero from the Tower faction.
Boom, boom, boom~
While Song Jian was recalling the City Lord Mansion’s information, a thunderous noise suddenly ca from ahead. Looking up, he saw a huge stone elental, over three ters tall, slowly walking out of the Mire Swamp.
Stone elentals, normally heavy-bodied and unable to traverse swamps, now seed weightless. With every step, they floated across the swamp’s surface, but the friction between the rocks of their gigantic bodies produced a thunderous noise.
“I don’t know if it’s good luck or bad luck that we’ve encountered a stone elental just upon arriving at the Mire Swamp. This is a level forty elental warrior, not soone we can contend with,” Guyar sighed while looking at the distant, enormous stone elental, his face showing a hint of distress.
Although Guyar had planned to claim the earth elental temple within the Mire Swamp and would have to confront these stone elentals sooner or later, his original plan was to capture so lower-level earth elentals first and then steamroll his way through, forming a large earth elental army before starting to look for stone elentals to battle.
“A level forty stone elental?” Song Jian’s eyes narrowed as he gazed at the stone elental.
This stone elental, being a fifth-tier troop type, could completely crush and destroy Guyar’s army single-handedly if a fight ensued.
“I wonder who would be stronger or weaker between it and my pet, Gulu?” Suddenly, Song Jian thought of Gulu, his stone elental pet that had been sleeping in the Pet Space.
With a thought, Song Jian directly released Gulu.
Just awakened from its slumber, Gulu appeared slightly dazed, but very soon, it was attracted to the environnt rich in earth elents surrounding it and couldn’t help but make a joyful “gulu gulu” sound.
The appearance of Gulu, a level 50 lord-level BOSS, imdiately caused chaos among Guyar and his troops, with several Mage apprentices even turning around to flee. It seed the morale of the army led by Guyar was not very high.
After a brief surprise and panic, the experienced Guyar managed to quell the disorder in the ranks. Gazing at Gulu, his eyes sparkled with a different kind of brilliance, and his look towards Song Jian also conveyed a hint of admiration.
“Respected lord, I never expected you to own such a powerful King of Stone Elent Elves, truly enviable. Your formidable strength will surely be renowned throughout the entire human kingdom!” Guyar said respectfully.
Song Jian, intrigued, pointed to the stone elental in the distance, “Do you think Gulu can defeat that stone elental?”
“My lord, your King of Stone Elent Elves is at least a sixth-tier troop, while the ordinary stone elent elves are only fifth-tier. Even a group of such elentals would not stand a chance against it,” Guyar said with an envious look.
“If that’s the case, then I’ll leave Gulu under your command for now,” Song Jian said with a smile.
Guyar was one of his heroes and whether it was he or the troops he led, Song Jian had full control. He did not need Guyar’s consent to reassign his entire army or even to order Guyar, now a re commander without an army, to launch a suicidal charge against a group of powerful monsters.
However, generally, no lord would do such a thing because it would be utterly insane. Should such a deed beco known, it’s doubtful any hero would wish to join his ranks.
Integrating Gulu into Guyar’s army would better utilize Gulu’s abilities. Besides, Song Jian could always retrieve Gulu from Guyar’s army and return it to the Pet Space at any ti.
“Really, Lord?” Guyar’s eyes showed disbelief as he stared at Gulu, his look turning into one of fascination, and he even made an unconscious swallowing motion.
The way Guyar looked at Gulu was akin to a lecher eyeing a beautiful woman, which gave Song Jian the chills.
“You’ll command the upcoming battle,” Song Jian said after integrating Gulu into Guyar’s troops.
“Yes, my Lord!” Tuya’s morale soared as he led the troops, charging toward the stone elental in the distance.
