World Of Beasts: I Can See Their Hidden Stats! Chapter 171 - The Cruel Armstrong

Chapter 171: The Cruel Armstrong

Although the Multicolored Jellyfishes looked fragile, in truth, their exterior was extremely tough.

Locke had only killed a dozen or so of them during his consecutive use of Hurricane Piercers.

However, there was not the slightest hint of panic on Armstrong’s face.

“As expected of someone who possesses 3 rose gold Battle Beasts… However, you will definitely die at my hands today!” Armstrong’s pockets was filled with potions. After drinking another bottle, his eyes lit up.

It seemed to have expanded his mana reserves!

With a thought, the jellyfish swarm flew into the air. Each of their bodies shot out different colored rays of light, just like a rainbow. It was a beautiful sight.

“My rainbow rays are very poisonous! Locke, your defense might be strong, but are you able to resist poison?”

Poison coursed through Locke’s body.

However, he did not feel any discomfort at all.

After all, Locke was immune to poison once he had donned on Fire G.o.d’s Armor!

The surrounding citizens looked at the arrogant Armstrong and contrasted it with the calm-looking Locke.

It was a rather awkward scene.

“Tch! What is this nonsense?”

“It’s completely useless…”

“The rainbow rays might look good, but what’s the point if they can’t deal any damage…”

“Is he giving Locke a ma.s.sage?”

Tristan secretly laughed. At the same time, he realized that the people watching the show did not care who the victor of the fight was. To them, this was just entertainment.

“Simple-minded buffoons…” Tristan felt disgusted.

After transforming Lil’ Flame into two swords. Locke soared into the air, and began to hack and slash at the jellyfishes while withstanding their light rays.

Armstrong was stunned!

It was not because the jellyfish were dying one by one.

He was shocked because his Rainbow Poison did not affect Locke at all!

Back in the past, he had used the same move to kill over hundreds of Beastmasters in a single day!

This was the first time he had ever encountered someone as resilient as Locke!

Beads of sweat began to stream down Armstrong’s face.

“What on earth happened?”

Alice was also puzzled.

She was certain that Locke was not this powerful back when he had first entered the academy!

‘Hasn’t he grown too much in such a short amount of time?’

‘Poison doesn’t even work on him anymore?’

‘But this was my best chance for revenge!’

After all, she had to sell her body and used flowery words to convince the Trent family to help her.

She absolutely could not stop here!

“Don’t be afraid of him! You have other ways to deal with him!”

Upon hearing Alice’s angry roar, Armstrong gradually calmed down from his shock.

However, he had already lost half of his jellyfishes due to Locke’s a.s.sault.

He rolled his eyes and looked at the crowd in the distance with an evil smile. “Hehehe…”

Suddenly, the jellyfish swarm began to form bubbles on their tendrils!

Boop… Boop… Boop… Boop

Locke was a.s.saulted by a constant stream of bubbles.

Unexpectedly however, the harder Locke struck the bubbles, the more resistance he felt!

Not only did he fail to pop the bubbles, but the bubbles had even attached themselves to his flaming swords!

The bubbles gradually coalesced and eventually they had formed a huge bubble that trapped Locke within it!

Although he was unable to break the water bubble, Locke noticed that there were no offensive elements within it.

“Are you planning to suffocate me to death?” Locke asked.

Armstrong laughed. “Hahahaha… Don’t be impatient! I’ll need to replenish my forces before I face you again!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the remaining jellyfishes quickly flew towards the crowd of onlookers!

As an experienced Beastmaster, Tristan immediately sensed that something was wrong ever since Locke was trapped in the bubble prison.

While hiding in the safety of a nearby shop, he peeked through the window and caught sight of the terrifying scene that was taking place outside!

“AH… !”

“Help… !”

“What is this… ?”

The jellyfishes attached themselves onto the heads of the onlookers!

Unique toxins quickly poured into the bodies of the onlookers!

The jellyfishes’ toxins had caused the onlookers to go limp, and once they were slumped over, the jellyfishes began to suck up their nutrients!

The bodies quickly shriveled up!

It was like a scene from a horror movie!

It was extremely terrifying!

Those who managed to escape were few and far between.

Armstrong’s attack had killed at least a hundred onlookers!

Countless wrinkled skins were abandoned in the streets by the jellyfish.

“Hahaha! Watch carefully! Had you not come and challenged me, these people would not have died. This is all on you, Locke!” Armstrong shouted.

He was hoping that he would at least be able to deal psychological damage to Locke.

Unfortunately, he did not understand Locke’s personality…

As someone who aspired to become the world’s strongest Beastmaster, Locke was not the type of person to be bounded by society’s standards.

Be it to save someone or to let them suffer, Locke would base his decision on his emotions.

Moreover…

Locke saw little reason to save the onlookers.

Not only were they unable to resist the addiction of the ketchup, their addiction had also corrupted their moral compa.s.s!

Locke did not have a single ounce of sympathy towards them.

Thus, there was no way he would feel guilty!

He dug his ears and said with an indifferent expression, “Many thanks! Thank you for your contribution to the Holy City!”

Armstrong was confused. He asked, “What do you mean by this?”

Locke had already found the flaw in the bubble prison’s structure. After bursting open the bubble and landing on the ground, he continued, “The housing prices in the Holy City are very high. Without these people marking up the prices, the housing prices will decrease to reasonable values. With this, I believe that those who are less fortunate would finally be able to afford a house.”

Armstrong did not find Locke’s joke funny.

He thought that Locke was teasing him.

He was someone who treated people like dirt.

It was normal for him to capture people alive for research.

However, even he was surprised by Locke’s ruthlessness!

Armstrong’s mana surged!

The jellyfish that had just absorbed the onlooker’s nutrients earlier began to hatch new jellyfishes!

Soon, the jellyfish swarm that only totaled to around 70 members began to expand its numbers.

Soon!

There were enough jellyfishes to cover the sky and blot out the sun!

“Sigh, I can’t help it… After all, my jellyfishes require human nutrients to reproduce. It’s their fault for having bad luck…”

As soon as he finished speaking, the jellyfishes’ tendrils became razor sharp again!

Locke sneered. He gripped the two flaming swords in his hands tightly and launched himself forward!

Armstrong knew that the jellyfishes could not do much against Locke.

However, the jellyfish swarm was merely a diversion. He was preparing an even more powerful move in secret!
