Chapter 255: Section 43: The Care and Assistance of the Big Guy
“Is this Undead Magic?” the Dragon-man youth’s pupils contracted as he watched the Earth Elents disintegrate.
The Undead Mage was so powerful and eerie; no wonder Cang Xu, despite being only at the Black Iron Level, was so cautiously feared by Zong Ge.
“Chase after them!” the Dragon-man youth quickly steadied his emotions and shouted.
The Big guy roared and took the lead.
The Earth Elents scattered in all directions.
Given the darkness of the night and the fact that the bloody Earth Elents burrowed into holes, the Big guy couldn’t catch up.
“Cang Xu.” The Dragon-man youth turned his head.
The old Scholar nodded and took out the Greedy Divine Bone.
The Divine Bone quivered, pointing in one direction.
“Eh?” The Dragon-man youth was surprised.
Clearly, the majority of Earth Elents fled in that direction, but now the Divine Bone pointed to a lone Earth Elent.
Without hesitation, the Dragon-man youth imdiately led the team to pursue the isolated Earth Elent.
This ordinary-looking Earth Elent, which had shown no abnormal behavior, revealed an exceptional trait once the team caught up and surrounded it.
It was more agile than its peers, full of spirit, and its Recovery Power and defensive power far exceeded those of the sa level.
The team could sense a sense of “cunning” from this Earth Elent!
But no matter what, this Earth Elent was still at the Bronze Level.
The Dragon-man youth left the special Earth Elent to the Big guy to handle.
The Big guy was not yet a Transcendent, but he nevertheless fought the Earth Elent to a standstill, neither gaining the upper hand.
Of course, mostly the Big guy dodged, while the Earth Elent attacked.
Whenever the Earth Elent tried to escape, the Dragon-man youth and Cang Xu would step in to intercept it for the Big guy.
The more agile Earth Elent at the sa level brought greater combat pressure to the Big guy. However, it was precisely because of this that the Big guy’s dodging beca even more skilled.
As this actual combat training continued for a mont, Cang Xu’s face showed a slight Mutation.
“This half-giant Mixed-blood actually has a very decent talent for combat!” Cang Xu recognized.
He could clearly feel that the Big guy’s improvent was trendous and rapid.
The Dragon-man youth was also pleased in his heart.
He had found the best thod to train the Big guy.
The Big guy’s intelligence was not high, but his physical fitness was actually very strong.
In actual combat, whenever the Big guy was hit or injured, his body would rember the lesson. The next ti he encountered a similar situation, he would have a different response than the last.
And these responses were not the result of the Big guy’s thinking but his body’s instinct.
Although often the results of the body’s instinctual responses were not ideal, the Dragon-man youth believed that as long as actual combat training was sufficient, the body’s instinctual performance would continually be corrected, eventually resulting in combat skills and thods that best adapted to the battlefield and matched the Big guy.
The Big guy beca more and more excited.
His excitent ca from two things: one was that the Earth Elent was hitting him less and less, and the other was that the Dragon-man youth kept encouraging him, constantly praising him.
The Earth Elent beca increasingly anxious and desperate, sensing its end.
It didn’t understand why these enemies didn’t chase the main force but targeted it instead!
With despair and resentnt, it suddenly abandoned the Big guy and charged at the Dragon-man youth, who was clearly the leader.
“Dad!” the Big guy shouted in alarm.
As the Earth Elent lunged at the Dragon-man youth, it directly provoked the Big guy’s rage, causing the half-giant to beco furious in an instant.
He abandoned his previous dodging stance and charged at the Earth Elent with frenzied aggressiveness.
The Earth Elent, with its back to him and keen on taking the Dragon-man youth down with it before dying, did not anticipate that the constantly dodging half-giant would suddenly transform into a person of valiant and crazed vigor, startling the Earth Elent.
Bang.
The Big guy forcefully tackled the Earth Elent to the ground, the two massive bodies colliding on the Magnetic Island’s hard surface.
Then, the Big guy and the Earth Elent engaged in a fierce brawl.
The Earth Elent’s body was tough, and the Big guy was unard but wearing armor.
“You want to hurt Daddy! I won’t allow it, never allow it!”
“Die!”
“Big guy will smash you to pieces!”
The Big guy’s voice bood like thunder, completely disregarding punches from the tough Earth Elent landing on him.
He entered a state of absolute fury, his punches raining down on the Earth Elent like a torrential downpour.
The intense fight lasted for more than a dozen breaths before the Big guy, bruised and bloody, gasping for air, stopped his fists.
The Earth Elent beneath him had crumbled into piles of rubble.
Amongst the stones, there was a clump of clay emitting an extraordinary aura.
“Daddy, you’re not hurt, are you?” The Big guy, realizing the Earth Elent was dead, suddenly snapped to his senses, stood up, and ran to the Dragon-man youth’s side.
Looking at the Big guy’s worried and tense face, a strong surge of warmth filled the Dragon-man youth’s heart.
He patted the Big guy’s leg and comforted him, “Didn’t you see that Daddy is standing here, all well? It’s all thanks to you protecting Daddy.”
The Big guy imdiately grinned a silly, happy smile.
Cang Xu examined the unusual clump of clay: “This is Rubber Clay, a Golden Level Alchemy Material, which can be sculpted into the external shape of most objects.”
So, that explained the issue with the Greedy Divine Bone’s direction.
This bone of Divinity was still quite useful.
However, the Rubber Clay was the biggest gain of the night.
The Magnetic Island was vast and plentiful in islands, and with the Dragon-man youth focused on training the Big guy, they managed to clear three Earth Elent settlents by dawn, obtaining so Earth Elent essences and magnetic stones.
At dawn, the Dragon-man youth led his team directly back to the Justice.
The camp left on the Magnetic Island was also dismantled.
By noon, news ca from the Deep Sea Monster Fish — they hadn’t found any traces of the i Lan temple.
Thus, the Dragon-man youth, without hesitation, set sail again, the small fleet of three ships heading straight for the second suspect location.
The next day.
“Old man, hustle up and get to work!”
“Joining our Justice Pirate Group isn’t such an easy task.”
“Clean this entire deck and only then can you have your al today, got it?”
Waffle, his brows knitted in distress, retorted, “But cleaning this deck is your job.”
Smack.
The whip struck Waffle soundly, knocking the old man to the ground.
“Just wipe when you’re told to wipe, what’s with all the nonsense!”
“Do you still want to hang around on the Justice or not?!”
Several pirates shouted rowdily.
Bang.
Just then, the door to the forward superstructure burst open.
The big guy, his face twisted in a savage grimace, stooped as he stepped out of the door, snarling, “Who’s disturbing my sleep?”
The few ordinary pirates, who had been so imposing monts before, suddenly beca terrified, shaking their heads in denial that it was their fault, then all pointed their fingers at Waffle.
“It’s you!!”
“How dare you wake up!”
The big guy brutally advanced on Waffle.
The old man kept backing away, quickly retreating to the side of the ship.
Without hesitation, the big guy reached out, seized the old man’s legs, then turned and dragged him back.
“Let go, let go!”
“Help, help….”
Waffle cried out desperately, struggling with all his might, but his old and frail body was no match for the big guy, who hauled him into the forward superstructure.
“It’s over, I think soone is going to die!”
“Quick, let’s get out of here, it’s got nothing to do with us.”
“Right, right, we didn’t see anything!!”
As the pirates watched the big guy slam the door shut, they were all terrified and fled in panic.
As the door shut heavily, darkness fell before Waffle’s eyes.
“Don’t kill , please, spare !” The old man’s face was etched with terror as he shouted hoarsely.
“Shut up, or I’ll eat you!” The big guy glared at the old man.
The old man instantly fell silent.
The big guy exhaled a heavy breath and crawled back onto his bed.
His bed was a round patch of fur laid directly on the floor, quite comfortable.
Lying down with his back to the old man Waffle, the big guy’s ferocious expression imdiately collapsed, replaced by worry and conflict.
“Was my performance just now okay?”
“Did I reveal any flaws?”
The fierce display was all instructed and entrusted to the big guy by the Dragon-man youth, Cang Xu, and others.
The act just now had exhausted all of the big guy’s effort.
He had been cultivating his Fighting energy, and hearing the commotion outside, he knew Waffle was being bullied.
This made the big guy imdiately recall how he too had suffered similar oppression, filling him with sympathy for Waffle.
Therefore, he ran out and took Waffle into his own cabin.
But now, he regretted it.
“What should I do next?”
“Dad never taught what to do!”
“What to do, what to do?”
The big guy had instinctively dragged Waffle into his room because when he was bullied on the Pig Kiss, the old shipwright had also pulled him into the cabin to avoid conflicts.
The big guy was simply acting on impulse.
As the big guy was in turmoil, he suddenly heard so noise behind him, he turned around and saw Waffle tiptoeing towards the door, gently trying to open it.
The big guy’s eyebrows shot up in alarm, a surge of concern welling up inside him, “How can you just leave?”
“If those people continue to bully you, I won’t be able to help you.”
But he knew he couldn’t let these words escape his lips, and for the sake of keeping up his disguise, he shouldn’t.
So, he slamd his fist on the floor and roared, “Stop right there! If you run out, I’ll break your legs.”
Waffle trembled violently all over, and imdiately stood still.
He quickly pleaded for rcy, “Please let go, sir, I was wrong, I really was. I shouldn’t have disturbed your sleep.”
The big guy frowned imdiately.
He knew it was the other pirates’ fault.
So, the big guy shouted again, “Shut up! Speak again, and I’ll beat you to a pulp.”
The old man imdiately clamd up, not making a sound.
The big guy was quite pleased, his heart calming a little, even feeling a bit of joy and delight.
“This must be what caring for and protecting others feels like.”
“Dad was right; this feeling is wonderful!”
“I can help others too.”
“It’s just so great.”
A flush of red blood on each of the big guy’s cheeks.
He gazed dizzily at the old man before him and then noticed the injuries on his body.
The big guy smiled, thinking, “I have the Healing Potion dad gave , and I can help him a bit more.”
His appearance was too dreadful, his hair disheveled, his mouth full of yellow teeth, his massive physique, his eyes shining brightly, and amidst his crude and simple exterior, there was a hint of crazed deanor.
Waffle shivered uncontrollably, seemingly about to faint at any second, which would hardly have been surprising.
