Chapter 260: Capture

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Pets and Equipment were not that different in the fact that there were good and bad ones even if they were of the same type.

The Lightning Leopard’s name would be gold in color under normal circumstances. However, the one that stood in front of them was different. It was the extremely rare purple colored one!

The rarity of items in the King of Pantheon were categorized by colors where white, blue, green, gold, purple, and orange would signify basic, normal, average, above average, rare, and legendary respectively.

This meant that the Lightning Leopard with a purple name was of rare quality, a step higher than the common spawning gold name Lightning Leopard. The overall attribute differences would be obvious too, they were a world’s part.

“Dear, we’ve hit the jackpot!” Not Gray Wolf’s eyes were wide open.

“Slap! Slap!”

Call Me Red Wolf gave Not Gray Wolf two hard slaps and the latter was stunned.

“What’s that for dear?”

“I’m just checking if I’m dreaming.”

“Oh…”

Call Me Red Wolf used Capture and a progress bar appeared on Lightning Leopard’s head.

[1%… 2%…]

Pop!

[1%… 2%…]

Pop!

[1%… 2%…]

Pop!

All three attempts on capturing the monster had failed.

The Lightning Leopard gave off a deep growl as it disappeared. In an instant, it had appeared in front of Call Me Red Wolf catching her off guard, its claws gleamed as it swiped at her mercilessly.

Thud thud thud thud thud thud…

Call Me Red Wolf’s HP was depleted in an instant and she died on the spot. She was not in a pseudocide state and she was in fact actually dead.

Thud thud thud thud thud thud…

The Lightning Leopard’s lightning quick sweeping attacks had made quick work of Call Me Red Wolf, then it pounced towards Not Gray Wolf who had been standing by his wife and the latter met the same fate as well…

The Lightning Leopard had only taken 5 seconds to deal with this perfect pair.

“Awooooo…”

The Lightning Leopard laid on the ground proudly as it started to lick its claws.

Li Yi was surprised as well when the Purple Lightning Leopard spawned, but he did not immediately go down to capture it. Instead, he watched how the Lightning Leopard tortured this couple to death patiently.

It was impossible to capture the Lightning Leopard directly regardless of how many tries the player attempted. The probability of successfully capturing it would only be there when its HP was down to less than 1,000,000.

There was still a lot of time left and Li Yi was patient enough.

The couple revived together as Red Wolf pointed at Gray Wolf and gave him a harsh scolding.

“I’ve told you countless times to gather more people for this and you didn’t believe me at all. Great. Now that we’ve encountered such a powerful one, we have no chance of winning against it. How are we supposed to capture it?”

“Be mindful dear. You’re the one who told me to not gather a single soul. You said that it will be better if fewer people knew about this. You also mentioned that…”

“How dare you talk back to me!”

“Slap! Slap!”

Call Me Red Wolf gave him two hard slaps and Not Gray Wolf toned down immediately as he apologized while crying. “I’m sorry dear.”

Despite her scolding, they still had to capture this super rare pet roaming in front of them.

The Golden Lightning Leopard had only 6,000,000 HP whereas the Purple Lightning Leopard had 12,000,000. The difference between the two was obvious from comparing their HP itself.

“We’ll grind her to death!”

Call Me Red Wolf was determined as she placed multiple traps on the ground before attacking the Lightning Leopard.

Call Me Red Wolf had learned her lesson as she ran away the moment she shot her first arrow. As expected, the Lightning Leopard appeared where she was standing previously in the blink of an eye. The Lightning Leopard’s speed was ridiculously fast and any player would be clawed to death if they stood on the spot foolishly for too long.

Fizz…

Frost started covering the Lightning Leopard’s body. The Frost Trap had been activated as it started enveloping the Lightning Leopard.

Not Gray Wolf, too, was fired up. He bit his fingertips as he smeared his blood onto his Skull Staff before raising it up high. “Headless Horseman, I summon thee!”

“Huh… Who calls for me?”

A cloud of black gas gathered on the ground as a Headless Horseman walked out from it.

It was the Sacrificial Summon which summoned an undead creature, the Headless Horseman!

“Stop playing dumb and hurry up!” Not Gray Wolf’s HP was still draining as he summoned the Headless Horseman. Although it was just a decrement in the tens, he would not be able to last if it took too long to summon it. This was typical for any typical Sacrificial Summon Spell as the owner would receive greater punishment if the pet they were trying to summon was stronger.

It took no time for the frozen effect to dissipate. As the Lightning Leopard was about to start growling and attacking again, the Headless Horseman managed to intercept it in time.

“Steel, Sword, Slash!”

[-1235]

A sword flashed across space as the Headless Horseman pierced through the Lightning Leopard’s body like a spirit. He then gave a classic post showing his back as he slowly sheathed his sword.

As the Headless Horseman had landed his attack, the Lightning Leopard stopped moving as if its acupoints had been hit.

The Headless Horseman’s skill, Steel Sword Slash, which he had used earlier could paralyze its target for 12 seconds.

Taking advantage of this opening, Call Me Red Wolf began spamming Capture on it…

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

4 sneak arrows flew towards Call Me Red Wolf, hitting her vital spots. Then, the Golden-feathered Eagle plunged from the sky, reaching out its claw to blind her for 12 seconds.

“Dear, save me…” Call Me Red Wolf screamed as she used her skill Keep Going If Alive.

The person who ambushed her was none other than Princess Huaiyu. She did not leave the area because she was waiting for this golden opportunity.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

It was another 4-hit combo and this was enough to drop her to the ground. Once bitten twice shy, Princess Huaiyu had learned her lesson and gave Call Me Red Wolf another arrow to her corpse.

[-1]

“Motherf*cking b*tch…” Call Me Red Wolf screamed in anger as she was really dead this time around.

“How dare you kill my wife. I’ll widen your *ss!”

“Unparalleled Blow!”

The Headless Horseman raised its black sword up high, turning it into a huge sword which spanned dozen of meters by covering it with a cloud of black gas before throwing its slash towards Princess Huaiyu.

“Purple-gold Combat Tiger!”

Princess Huaiyu did not move an inch as she raised her hand and summoned the Purple-gold Combat Tiger while watching the black giant sword hurling towards her.

“Growl…”

The Purple-gold Combat Tiger appeared and welcomed the black sword with its claw, dispersing it into oblivion.

The tiger slammed the ground with its claw. It had used Malicious Nullification!

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Princess Huaiyu took the opportunity when the Headless Horseman was still in a daze and started attacking Not Gray Wolf. She was able to deal with him with ease as he only had half of his HP, two arrows was all it took to kill him.

“Just you wait you bigot. If I can’t get it, don’t think that you can catch it as well!” Not Gray Wolf scolded out loud as he released his soul.

The Purple-gold Combat Tiger blitzed towards the Lightning Leopard and stood right in front of it. As the two purple class pets stared each other in the eye, they both growled as they began clawing at each other.

The Lightning Leopard’s claws were incredibly fast and it attacked at an extremely fast rate just like an electric fan. Anyone would have little chance of surviving if they were caught in its attack. On the other hand, the Purple-gold Combat Tiger stood on the other end of the spectrum. Its claws were slow but it was able to stun its target.

The two pets exchanged blows. The Purple-gold Combat Tiger’s HP had dropped by 1000+ whereas the Lightning Leopard’s HP had dropped by 5000+ and was stunned simultaneously.

Red light glowed around Princess Huaiyu’s hands as she used Capture on the Lightning Leopard.

1%… 2%…

Pop!

1%… 2%…

Capture from a Pet Path Archer was completely ineffective as well and the Lightning Leopard was not having any of it. As soon as the channeling started, it would immediately pop and would never reach above 3%.

Li Yi fooled around with the longbow in his hand and did not blink even once as he watched the situation below him unfold.

He was very determined to have the Purple Lightning Leopard and he did not take any action because it was not yet time. He had been watching closely all this while and he would definitely not allow Princess Huaiyu and the rest of them to survive if the channeling were to progress further.

Admittedly, it was rather despicable to ambush them, but which of those characters below were better? They would just backstab each other. This would be absolutely unforgivable in real life but in the game, it was within the rules. In order to survive in a game, one only needed to know one thing, which was strength could overcome reasoning!

Whoosh… Whoosh… Whoosh…

Three arrows pierced through the atmosphere and landed on Princess Huaiyu’s back. Two of the three arrows was a critical hit, dealing -1200 damages per arrow and this instantly put Princess Huaiyu to the ground!

“B*tch. What goes around, comes around. Weren’t you tall and mighty just now? Come on, stand up. I’ll kill you as long as you dare to stand up!”

Unease Without Ejaculation stood far away with his bow in his hand as he sneered at Princess Huaiyu.

The Purple-gold Combat Tiger vanished as its owner had perished during combat. As the Lightning Leopard’s stun had dissipated, it set its eyes on Unease Without Ejaculation.

“Howl…”

Unease Without Ejaculation turned around and ran away without any hesitation. He had witnessed everything, the situation where the Wolf couple were instantly killed by the Lightning Leopard. He knew that it would be suicide fighting against this beast, which was the reason why he decided to retreat.

Although Unease Without Ejaculation’s reasoning was very sound, he had vastly underestimated Lightning Leopard’s speed. It took the Lightning Leopard three seconds to close the distance of a hundred meters and with a swipe of its mighty claw, Unease Without Ejaculation met his end…

After a while, the Wolf couple stood back up. They did not attack the Lightning Leopard immediately this time around. Instead, they hid a distance away as they discussed how to capture it.

Similarly, Princess Huaiyu revived and hid away as she waited for the situation to develop further.

Unease Without Ejaculation had returned as well but he did not choose to revive. In fact, he tailed behind Princess Huaiyu as a soul, plotting a scheme to kill her again.

“My friends, we’ve all witnessed this Lightning Leopard’s strength. We won’t be capturing this beast if we were to keep fighting against each other. I suggest that we work together for a better cause. Are you okay with this?” Not Gray Wolf sent a message in the Region Channel.

“What’s the plan?” Princess Huaiyu asked.

“We’ll team up and reduce its health to less than 1,000,000 HP. Then, we will take turns to capture it and it’ll belong to whoever catches it first. It’s fair and square.”

“I agree!” Unease Without Ejaculation responded.

Princess Huaiyu pondered for a moment before responding. “Fine. I agree as well!”

No enemies were eternal. Enemies would temporarily become comrades in the face of temptation and interest, even if they were sworn enemies. Although this was merely a relationship of taking advantage of each other, everyone understood very well that it was very just.

No one would be able to capture the Lightning Beast if they were to keep fighting against each other. All of them knew that the only chance to capture it was to work together, which was the reason why they decided to do so.

Not Gray Wolf sent a party invitation to Princess Huaiyu and Unease Without Ejaculation. He had even set the party as a party without a leader and free to loot mode in order to show his sincerity.

Since there was no party leader, no one would be kicked out and the item would belong to anyone who looted first in free to loot mode!

“Alright comrades, the reason we’re killing each other is that we don’t know each other. We will be good friends once we get along, right? Hahaha. My wife and I will go first and you guys can follow up afterward.”

Although Not Gray Wolf sounded extremely sincere, both Princess Huaiyu and Unease Without Ejaculation understood that this cooperation was completely unreliable…

“Howl…”

The Lightning Leopard focused its gaze and pounced towards Call Me Red Wolf…
