Ch. 56 - One Pee Solved a World-Class Problem
After a full two hours of relentless pursuit, the Ice Field Rabbit Lord still hadn't given up, though only a few dozen of its followers remained.Only the Ice Field Rabbit Lord was Black Iron rank—the ordinary Ice Field Rabbits didn't have nearly enough stamina for this marathon chase.
But the Flame Bird was just as exhausted by now, its tongue hanging out like a dog's. If this kept up much longer, the poor thing might just keel over and die.
"Hang in there, little fire bird!"
Chen Shu patted the Flame Bird's back, having already ditched all their baggage along the way.
Another half hour of pursuit passed, until finally only the Ice Field Rabbit Lord remained in hot pursuit.
Chen Shu couldn't help but complain, "I just peed on you once! Was that really worth this obsessive chase? What a severe germaphobe!"
He'd learned a valuable lesson today: don't relieve yourself anywhere you please—not even in alternate dimensions!
The mission briefing had mentioned that Lord-level Ice Field Rabbits were extremely clean freaks with incredibly high standards for their habitat.
Chen Shu pissing all over it was basically spiritual torture for a severe germaphobe. Of course it couldn't let that slide!
After another round of chasing, the Flame Bird was gasping for breath, looking like it might drop dead any second.
Chen Shu suddenly asked, "Little Rain, do you think Flame Bird meat needs to be roasted?"
"!!!" Xu Xiaoyu's forehead instantly filled with black lines as her hands shot out to grab Chen Shu. "Are you seriously cracking jokes at a time like this?!"
"Cough, cough... my bad... I was just trying to lighten the tense mood..."
Chen Shu raised his hands in surrender, then shouted forward.
"Uncle Zhou, let's turn around and fight! There's only one Ice Field Rabbit Lord left!"
He'd realized their opportunity half an hour ago.
The other Ice Field Rabbits didn't have the endurance for such a long chase—they were probably foaming at the mouth and convulsing on the ground somewhere behind them by now.
This was their perfect chance!
Zhou Shi, with all his experience, caught on immediately.
"Little Yuan, scout the surroundings!"
A black crow took flight, its innate 'Night Vision' talent kicking in. Soon it let out a call.
"Captain, all clear!" Little Yuan clenched his fists, eyes gleaming with excitement.
Since the Beast Taming Corps' founding, they'd only killed three Mutated-level fierce beasts, never daring to even think about taking on a Lord-level creature. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity—the biggest threat from the Ice Field Rabbits had been perfectly neutralized.
"Attack!"
Zhou Shi was decisive as always. The Wind Wing Eagle spun around sharply, unleashing a vicious Wind Blade.
The Ice Field Rabbit Lord's blue eyes still burned with fury, losing all reason.
Every time it tried to calm down, that nauseating stench from its head would hit again, sending it back into a rage.
Its sharp gaze tracked the Wind Blade's trajectory as it spat out an ice ball.
BOOM!
The two attacks collided and dissipated almost instantly.
"ROAR!"
The Rend Claw Wolf suddenly charged in, its claws gleaming ominously as 'Rending Claw' activated.
The Ice Field Rabbit Lord couldn't dodge in time. Its body was instantly torn open, crimson blood spurting out, making it even more berserk.
Whoosh!
A brilliant blue ice arrow shot from the Ice Field Rabbit Lord's mouth!
It was so fast that even Zhou Shi couldn't react—if it hit, the Rend Claw Wolf would be critically wounded!
But just then, a yellow figure appeared. The Golden Slime landed squarely on top of the ice arrow with perfect precision.
The previously lightning-fast ice arrow immediately slowed to a crawl—nothing could maintain speed while dragging nearly a thousand pounds.
Just as the Rend Claw Wolf was about to dodge, a voice suddenly rang out:
"It's in a stun state—attack now!"
Chen Shu's expression was deadly serious, completely different from his usual playful demeanor.
The Rend Claw Wolf glanced at Zhou Shi, then immediately glowed with dark energy, its speed dramatically increasing as it charged toward the Ice Field Rabbit Lord.
The Ice Field Rabbit Lord was now unable to move, its eyes blazing with towering hatred.
That damned human who had humiliated it!
The ice arrow finally struck a large tree. The Golden Slime was too slow and crashed right into the trunk, though it wasn't seriously hurt—just a bit dizzy.
"ROAR!"
The Rend Claw Wolf's claws were razor-sharp, continuously slashing the Ice Field Rabbit's skin. Lord-level blood stained the wolf's head crimson, making it increasingly bloodthirsty.
"Fall back!"
Chen Shu's eyes were sharp, his instincts warning him that the Ice Field Rabbit was about to recover.
Zhou Shi made the call, and the Rend Claw Wolf retreated immediately.
"Hiss... hiss..."
The Ice Field Rabbit Lord panted heavily, the massive blood loss making it feel weak. Its previously enraged mind began to clear.
But Zhou Shi and the others weren't about to let it escape.
Killing a Lord-level fierce beast—just thinking about it was enough to get anyone's blood pumping! This would be the Beast Taming Corps' greatest achievement!
The Ice Field Rabbit Lord's gaze remained fierce as it swept over everyone, as if memorizing their faces. If it somehow managed to escape, it would definitely seek revenge.
Especially against that damn bastard Chen Shu!¹
"I'll pee on you again next time!"
Chen Shu stood on the Flame Bird's back, swaying side to side as he taunted.
In that instant, the Ice Field Rabbit Lord's blue eyes turned utterly vicious. Its blood temperature spiked, and the blood dripping from its wounds hissed as it hit the grass.
The skill 'Berserk Blood' activated!
"Hold it off!"
Zhou Shi's expression turned grave as he commanded the Rend Claw Wolf.
The Ice Field Rabbit's powerful legs kicked off, its massive body moving like a gentle breeze—swift to the extreme.
The two Black Iron-level creatures immediately became locked in combat, but it wasn't long before the Rend Claw Wolf started taking damage.
If this dragged on, the Rend Claw Wolf would die here.
"Everyone attack!"
Zhou Shi's face turned fierce as everyone landed and summoned their contract spirits.
The Wind Wing Eagle joined the battle, its Wind Blades slashing through the air, temporarily slowing the Ice Field Rabbit's assault.
The Flame Bird, Iron-backed Beast, Blue-tailed Butterfly, and others all entered the fray.
Though they were only Basic-level contract spirits, their skills and talents could still make a difference—that's what made them so valuable.
The battlefield instantly reached a stalemate.
Once the Ice Field Rabbit Lord's skill duration ended, the tide would definitely turn.
"Well done, Little Chen."
Zhou Shi was actually smiling now. Who would have thought that one stream of piss could solve a problem that had plagued beast tamers for ages?
As long as they could get an Ice Field Rabbit dirty, there was a chance to separate it from its pack.
Just then, a hint of weakness appeared in the Ice Field Rabbit's eyes.
Its body was covered in blood, clearly having suffered serious injuries.
"Don't let your guard down!"
Chen Shu wasn't joking around anymore—his expression was completely serious.
Play is play, jokes are jokes, but don't mess around with a Lord-level beast!²
