Chapter 11
“Later, I’ll throw stones into the water pit from this side, attracting the attention of those demonic fish. Then you can take the opportunity to attack them with the ‘Thunder Cat Claw’!”
“First, deal with that Level 2 one… Oh, the biggest one, the one that just attacked us with the bomb!”
“As long as we deal with the largest one, the rest will be much easier!”
“Mhm!” Snowy was very intelligent, nodding her head and quickly moving to the other side of the water pit.
She lay down on the ground, motionless.
On this side, Chen Fan picked up a stone and walked to the edge of the pit, throwing it in!
The group of Blue Scaled Demonic Fish in the water pit were furious…
Water Guns were fired continuously, Water Bubble Bombs were also constantly flying out, chasing Chen Fan and incessantly bombarding him.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Snowy on the other side stood up. Her two cat paws were enveloped by the Power of Thunder and Lightning, and she unleashed four consecutive “Thunder Cat Claws” attacks on the Level 2 Blue Scaled Demonic Fish!
The Blue Scaled Demonic Fish was just surfacing and angrily blowing bubbles when, unbeknownst to it, it was struck by four “Thunder Cat Claws” attacks. Several bloody holes were opened up on its head and belly, causing it to flip over and reveal its white belly!
“Snowy, retreat!”
After dodging a few Water Bubble Bombs, Chen Fan waved his hand vigorously.
Snowy responded very quickly, turning around and retreating to a safe area.
Several sharp Water Guns flew by, not even touching a single hair on her.
“Well done!”
Chen Fan laughed heartily and gave Snowy a thumbs up from across the water pit.
“Meow!”
Snowy happily waved her little paw.
Next, it became much easier, as there were only six Level 1 Blue Scaled Demonic Fish left in the water pit.
The Level 1 Blue Scaled Demonic Fish could only use the “Water Gun” skill and did not have the “Water Bubble Bomb” skill.
Chen Fan kept throwing stones on this side, attracting the attention of the blue scaled demon fish.
On the other side, Snowy’s Thunder Cat’s Claw wouldn’t stop attacking.
In less than ten minutes, the six Blue Scaled Demonic Fish were killed and floated on the surface of the water.
Chen Fan had Snowy deliver two “Thunder Cat Claws” to each Blue Scaled Demonic Fish, then used a fishing spear to bring all seven fish up.
The Level 2 Blue Scaled Demonic Fish was more than two feet long, and the Level 1 Blue Scaled Demonic Fish were also more than a foot long.
Chen Fan checked Snowy’s Attribute Panel. To help Snowy upgrade from Level 1 to Level 2, she needed 5 pounds of fresh fish meat of Level 1 or above, 1 Level 2 fish crystal nucleus, and 10 energy points.
The fish meat was enough.
The Level 2 fish crystal nucleus was also available.
Energy… the current system energy was 19 points.
Chen Fan clicked on the details and found that there were 10 points of energy left in the system before. This time, killing six Level 1 Blue Scaled Demonic Fish earned 6 energy points and killing one Level 2 Blue Scaled Demonic Fish earned 3 energy points.
With everything ready and no need for the east wind!
Chen Fan glanced at the method on the system panel, which was very simple… Grill or boil the fish directly for Snowy to eat, then let Snowy use the Power of Thunder and Lightning to refine the Level 2 Blue Scaled Demonic Fish Crystal Core while she’s full!
Very well…
Chen Fan couldn’t wait and took out a dagger, dug out the Level 2 Blue Scaled Demonic Fish Crystal Core, then removed the guts of all seven fish, cleaned them, and placed them on a tree leaf over one meter in diameter.
He found a spacious and safe place, collected some dry firewood and dried leaves, and piled them all together.
Snowy lay next to the tree leaf, watching Chen Fan quietly.
Although she didn’t quite understand what Chen Fan was doing, she didn’t move since he hadn’t let her eat the fish.
After Chen Fan finished all the preparations, he picked up Snowy, grabbed the sack filled with the seven fish, and returned to the side of the firewood pile.
He put Snowy down and pointed to the pile of firewood and leaves, saying, “Snowy, use your Thunder Cat’s Claw to help me make a fire.”
Snowy looked at Chen Fan, then at the firewood and dried leaves, and gently waved her paw.action
“Bang!”
With the Thunder Cat’s Claw firing, the firewood scattered.
But, the dried leaves caught fire!
Chen Fan hurried to his feet, gathered the scattered firewood, and then blew a few breaths to make the fire burn more vigorously.
He picked up a fish with a spear and began grilling it directly over the fire.
The delicious aroma wafted through the air, and Snowy, who was sitting next to the fire, drooled.
“Don’t worry, it’ll be ready soon!”
Chen Fan glanced at Snowy and comforted her.
In a short while, the first fish was grilled. Chen Fan tore off a piece and gave the rest to Snowy.
Snowy lay on the large tree leaf with a diameter of more than a meter, grabbed the grilled fish, and began eating it wildly.
Chen Fan also took a big bite.
“This Blue Scaled Demonic Fish tastes really good; it has few bones and a lot of meat, each mouthful is juicy, it’s just a pity there’s no salt…”
Chen Fan ate and grilled fish at the same time.
All seven fish were grilled.
However, Snowy could only finish three before having a full belly.
The rest of the fish, Chen Fan wrapped them all up with large leaves.
“Three fish that weigh about five jins should be enough… On another note, Snowy has started eating significantly more since she awakened and gained new abilities; she can eat so much now.”
Chen Fan took out the level 2 Blue Scaled Demonic Fish’s Crystal Cores and placed them in front of Snowy.
Snowy widened her eyes while looking at the diamond-shaped core.
She clearly sensed the strong Water Attribute energy within the core as well.
Chen Fan also lay on the leaves and said seriously, “Snowy, use your paws to hold onto the crystal core, and then slowly channel the power of Lightning… Remember, slowly channel it. Do not blast out the power like how you did when attacking, understand?”
Snowy: “Mm-hmm!”
To be on the safe side, Chen Fan got a small stone, and let Snowy hold it, then slowly channeled the power of lightning.
“Zzzz!”
Two small paws of Snowy’s were bursting with lightning, enveloping the small stone.
The power of lightning, strong enough to destroy the small stone, managed to wrap around it without instantly detonating!
“Snowy, you’re so smart!”
Chen Fan was overjoyed.
Upon hearing the praise, Snowy squinted her eyes and showed a smile…
“Bang!”
The small stone held by her paws exploded into dust.
“Stay calm, don’t be hasty, and focus!”
Chen Fan patted Snowy’s head, hinting her to use both paws to grab the level 2 Blue Scaled Demonic Fish’s Crystals Core.
“Hold the crystal core with your paws, then slowly channel the power of lightning, wrapping it.”
Chen Fan looked at the usage instructions on the system panel and said, “At that point, the power of lightning will guide the core’s power out, and you will devour it all!”
“Do you understand?”
Snowy nodded her head: “Mm-hmm!”
Under Chen Fan’s watchful eyes, Snowy carefully held the diamond-shaped core.
Her paws began emitting lightning again.
The lightning wrapped around the level 2 Blue Scaled Demonic Fish’s Crystal Core.
The next moment, Chen Fan sensed a powerful force surging out of the core!
“Guide that force, bring that force out, and swallow it!”
Chen Fan felt his palms sweat.
He directed Snowy based on the instructions from the system, but he wasn’t sure if she could maintain control and guide the energy of the core using the power of lightning.
A level 2 Blue Scaled Demonic Fish was not easy to catch; if this one were wasted, it would not be easy to obtain another core in a short time.
Snowy suddenly opened her mouth wide and inhaled forcefully…
“Zzzz!”
She absorbed the lightning wrapped in a strange force, which flowed like water!
The diamond-shaped core held in Snowy’s paws turned into a dim, lightless stone and instantly crumbled!
“It worked!”
Chen Fan suppressed his excitement, stretched out his palm, and gently pressed it on Snowy’s head.
The last step…
Expend 10 system points to help Snowy with the final upgrade!
It was as if an electric current surged from Chen Fan’s abdomen, running through his right arm and finally reaching Snowy’s head.
Snowy’s body trembled violently!
“Boom!”
An extraordinary force blasted away Chen Fan’s palm!
“Meow!”
Snowy let out a fierce cry, and her body suddenly grew larger!
At the same time, her body was wrapped in lightning, making her appear as though she was cast from lightning!
Meanwhile, Snowy’s Attribute Panel in Chen Fan’s view finally changed…
