Setting Out

Hearing Tusk ask that question, Xiao Fan knew what these animals were like...

They shouldn't be called animals; they should be called Magic Beast.

These Magic Beast had no idea about the Space Beast's Flash ability, but he still patiently explained it to them.

"CD stands for skill cooldown time. It's the time between using a skill and being able to use it again."

"Oh, so this is a CD." Tusk nodded in realization.

"I really haven't noticed that before. Does any of you know?"

The Tusk's gaze fell upon its Magic Beast, Magic Beast one by one entered a state of deep thought.

The Big Rabbit tilted its head and thought for a moment, "Last time I watched the Saber-toothed Tiger fight the Space Beast, I remember its Flash skill had a very short cooldown, probably... probably only a few dozen seconds!"

If you count to several dozen, that's about ten seconds.

This CD is quite short.

"It seems that Space Beast are indeed difficult to deal with," Xiao Fan thought to himself.

"The Flash distance is probably around 100 meters. I've thought about it carefully. During the battle, the Flash location of the Space Beast has always been within this distance range." The Big Yellow Ox squinted as he thought and answered.

100 meters... what's the difference between that and teleportation?

Xiao Fan's expression turned grim.

With Flash distance of 100 meters and a cooldown of ten seconds, it's no wonder these Magic Beast can't defeat the Space Beast.

Xiao Fan only needs to consider one thing now: how to lure the Space Beast into the mark of his skill Flower Grafting.

As long as their health can be exchanged, they only need to reduce the Space Beast's health by a little more before the skill mark explosion will kill it instantly.

"If only I had a little blood left," Xiao Fan said regretfully.

He won't lose a single drop of health unless his mana is completely depleted.

As for those Magic Beasts, hehe.

Xiao Fan felt that if he dared to suggest that they lose only a sliver of blood, they might immediately turn on him.

There was no trust between him and these Magic Beasts.

"Jiu Chen, why are you asking so many questions? What's the solution?" Tusk bent down, bringing his huge wolf head close to Xiao Fan's head, his amber pupils fixed on him.

Xiao Fan's mind raced, and combining the number of Magic Beast present with the methods they had mentioned before, he finally came up with an excellent solution.

He shared his idea with the group of Magic Beast, and upon hearing it, the Big White Rabbit excitedly stood up and patted Xiao Fan on the shoulder.

"Jiu Chen, do you really have such amazing skills?"

"Of course, this is my signature skill." Facing a group of story-driven Magic Beast, Xiao Fan had no need to hide it.

Tusk stared at Xiao Fan.

To be so "skinny" yet still be an adventurer, one's skills must be genuine.

"This matter depends on you."

"Mm." Xiao Fan nodded.

"However, whether the Space Beast can enter the mark I've made depends on your cooperation."

"Don't worry, we'll definitely cooperate with you," Little Fire assured, patting its chest with its enormous wings.

"Let's not delay, let's set off now."

The Space Beast devoured Life Crystal extremely quickly, and in order to protect the crystal mine, the Tusk and their companions couldn't wait a moment longer.

Little Fire and Little Blaze, as flying Magic Beast, went out first to scout ahead.

As a human, Xiao Fan simply couldn't keep up with the speed of these Magic Beasts on foot.

The Old Yellow Ox volunteered to let Xiao Fan ride on its back.

Actually, Xiao Fan thought riding Tusk or Big Lion would be better, but the other two didn't think so, so there was nothing he could do.

The scenery along the way through the valley broadened Xiao Fan's horizons.

So beautiful!

It was almost like the beautiful scenery in the special effects of movies from my previous life, and the valley felt full of life.

Xiao Fan guessed that it was probably related to that Life Crystal Mine.

"I wonder what the Life Crystal Mine is used for. Can I bring some back to Zone 18 after completing this adventure?"

According to the Old Yellow Ox, there are five Life Crystal Mine in the valley, and the Space Beast has already devoured three of them, which is simply insane.

They wouldn't have united against it if they hadn't been forced into a corner.

Along the way, Xiao Fan discovered that there were actually many normal animals and insects in the valley, and he wondered why the Tusk were different.

"Hmph! Don't compare us to those ordinary animals. We are Magic Beast that have fused with Evolution Fragment." The Old Ox raised its head proudly when Xiao Fan asked.

"Evolution Fragment!" Xiao Fan nearly lost his balance and fell to the ground.

He never expected to hear about Evolution Fragment during a serendipitous encounter.

"That's right, the more Evolution Fragment we fuse, the stronger we become, and the faster we evolve. I've only fused two Evolution Fragment so far, but Tusk is the most powerful; it has already fused four."

"What exactly are Evolution Fragment?" Xiao Fan finally couldn't help but ask.

Old Ox shook his head. "Actually, I don't know either. I only know that after fusing with the Evolution Fragment, the fragments will help us absorb the power brought by the Life Crystal of the valley, making us stronger."

"So that's how it is." Xiao Fan had always thought that Evolution Fragment required collecting a certain number of fragments to complete the set, but after hearing what Old Ox said, Evolution Fragment seemed to be more like an auxiliary tool to help absorb power.

Just as Xiao Fan was about to ask Old Ox how they obtained the Evolution Fragment, the Magic Beast team in front of him stopped.

"The Life Crystal Mine is just ahead, and the Space Beast is there," Old Ox explained.

The vibrant life force permeating the air invigorated Xiao Fan. He noticed that the flowers, plants, and trees here were even more lush, as if they contained a vibrant source of life.

It goes without saying that it's because of the Life Crystal.

I'm just wondering what the Life Crystal is in the game? Is it an item or an energy source? And can it be taken out of the story?

As Xiao Fan pondered, Little Fire and Little Blaze flew down from the sky and landed on a stone by the roadside.

"Damn it! That Space Beast has devoured half of the Life Crystal again. If we're any later, this vein will be completely devoured." Little Fire's voice was both cute and fierce.

The Magic Beast couldn't wait any longer upon hearing this.

"Damn Space Beast! We must kill it this time!"

"Kill the Space Beast!"

"Kill the Space Beast!"

Seeing the beasts' enraged expressions, it brandished its Tusk and claws. "Proceed according to plan."

The beasts immediately separated and began preparing according to Xiao Fan's plan.

Xiao Fan jumped onto Little Fire's back. "Let's go."
