Chapter 374: Lugh Goes On Stage

“Humph! You’re not bad at being a water ghost. You actually defeated my Horned Frog by force. I admire your boldness,” Spender said with a cold face as he held Austin’s hand.

“Hehe... I was lucky,” Austin said with a silly smile as he touched the back of his head.

Since the two of them had lost the qualification to participate in the competition and could not return to the player’s room, the two of them chose a spot to watch the match. The two of them began to chat with each other, and their relationship became much closer.

At this moment, on the host and guest stage, Lilian saw Austin and Spender quickly getting closer after the match, she winked at Eddie coquettishly and said, “Eddie, look at those two little guys from our village. We’ve known each other for so long, but our relationship has never gotten closer. Don’t you think we should also...”

“Then... Alright, I’m two years older than you. Today, the two of us will become brothers and sisters with different surnames. Is that alright?” Eddie said hesitantly and tentatively.

Lillian: “...”

The battle on the stage did not end because of their departure. The battle was still very intense. As the contestants continued to be eliminated, it was finally Lugh’s turn to go on stage.

Slowly walking onto the stage, Lugh nodded to Austin who was waving his hand to cheer for him in the distance. Then, he looked at his opponent.

Lugh’s opponent was a seventeen-year-old young girl named Emma. She was wearing plain pink cloth clothes. Perhaps because she had been exposed to the sunlight for a long time, her skin showed a healthy wheat color. She had short hair, and there was a hint of hostility in her eyes as she stared at Lugh, who was her opponent.

Although he was a little confused as to when he had sinned against this girl whom he had never met before, Lugh did not say anything and directly freed his Big Mouth.

A scarlet source power spread out from his body, and the light purple spirit lattice behind his back appeared with the source power output. After cultivating the poison attribute of Big Mouth, the spirit lattice also changed because of the Big Mouth’s changes. After all, the color and pattern of the spirit lattice... Changed according to the specific situation of the source beast.

Big Mouth slowly walked out from the spirit lattice, opened its blood-red teeth, and let out a deafening dragon roar. Compared to the Big Mouth from before, now that it was already level 10, its roar and body appearance had an earth-shaking change.

The scarlet compound eyes only had a round hole that guaranteed vision under the cover of the beetle on its head. The compound eyes in the gap emitted a demonic red glow, and the thick, light-blue beetle on its body covered its body, from time to time, purple light particles would appear on the beetle, filling it with a strange sense of beauty.

At this moment, Big Mouth was like a knight wearing heavy armor. Six legs that were thicker than an adult man’s stretched out, echoing with the muscles on its upper body that had just appeared. All of them embodied the beauty of a dragon’s strong and muscular body.

“Roar!”

Big Mouth’s deafening roar resounded throughout the arena. Emma, the female Beast Master across from Lugh, was also shocked by Big Mouth’s appearance. She even slowed down her release of her spirit lattice for a moment.

After pausing for a moment, Emma finally summoned her own source beast. This source beast was a race that Lugh was extremely familiar with. Emma’s contract source beast was a Wind Spirit Dragonfly that had been raised quite well. It was of the same race as the flower branch in Lugh’s family.

[Race: Wind Spirit Dragonfly]

[Origin: Insect Race-Dragonfly Species]

[Attribute: Insect Wind]

[Innate Ability: Wind Attribute Specialized Insect Eye]

[Race Quality: Medium Commoner Class]

Wind Spirit Dragonfly was one of the few insect race source beasts that could skillfully use the power of the wind element among the commoner class. The ability to control the wind element far surpassed all other source beasts of the same quality and level, except for elemental type source beasts, it was a top-notch wind envoy of the civilian grade.

“Is this... a Scavenger Fly?” Emma frowned as she looked at the Big Mouth on the stage that looked somewhat similar to a Scavenger Fly. However, Big Mouth that had undergone a huge change after being groomed by Lugh made Emma a little unsure of what kind of source beast the big mouth was.

Under the full nurturing of Lugh, Big Mouth’s level had grown rapidly. It had already gradually separated from its infancy stage and was gradually maturing. The transformation of the Thorn Beetle Armor had almost covered its head. The bulging muscles on its abdomen did not show any signs of being an insect. The appearance of Big Mouth was gradually becoming more and more different from that of the Scavenger Fly.

“Is this your friend? His source beast is a... Scavenger Fly?” Spender looked at Austin, who kept waving his hand at Lugh.

“We are all from Iron Cloud Village. The one on the stage is Lugh, also the champion of our village this time. As for his source beast...”

Halfway through his sentence, Austin paused when he saw Spender’s expression as if he had found his own kind. He felt that it was a little funny, but he continued with a silly smile on his face, “Unfortunately, his source beast is not a Scavenger Fly.”

Spender’s own Horned Frog and Scavenger Flies were also considered inferior source beasts. After seeing Lugh summon a source beast that looked like a Scavenger Fly, Spender thought that there was someone else who had the same kind of persistence as him, it immediately attracted his attention and interest.

After hearing Austin say that Lugh’s source beast was not a Scavenger Fly, a hint of disappointment flashed in Spender’s eyes, followed by a frown. He said in a low voice, “Is that so... What kind of source beast is that? There’s nothing about this source beast that looks like a Scavenger Fly in my knowledge.”

“At first, when I saw that guy’s source beast, I thought it was a Scavenger Fly. Later, I heard from my old man who was the village governor that Lugh’s source beast is a species called the Wyvern.”

“Wyvern? You said that source beast has the bloodline of a dragon?!”

Although Spender had never heard of the name Wyvern, he noticed the dragon in the Wyvern’s name. The meaning of a dragon source beast was self-evident, and his cold face immediately revealed a trace of surprise.

“Yes, that is a powerful source beast with the quality of a great general.”

After listening to the exchange for a while, Austin felt that Spender was someone he could befriend. Thus, he did not hide it from him and told Spender about Big Mouth’s race in a low voice.

“General-grade! This...”

Spender was so shocked that he was speechless. One had to know that in his own village, he had seen the source beast with the highest race quality, which was the main source beast of Village Chief Lilian. It was a White Velvet Horse with a middle-grade soldier-grade, not to mention a general-level source beast, he had not even seen a high quality soldier-level source beast.

The general-level and soldier-level were two completely different qualities. If the quality difference between a medium quality soldier and a high quality soldier was a dividing line, then the quality of a general-level source beast would directly crush the absolute difference between the two.

The potential of a general-level source beast was that the higher the level, the more obvious its performance would be. In the end, it would be able to directly widen the gap with a low quality source beast until it became a high wall that the other party could not cross. This was a general-level source beast.

The best high-grade soldier-grade Red-Armored Battle Lizard could be sold for at most 10,000 gold coins on the market, while the weakest source beast among the great general-grade could be sold for 300,000 gold coins. The highest-grade source beast could even be sold for over a million gold coins, the price was enough to see the difference between the two.

Spender calmed himself down and asked curiously, “Where did he come from? He can actually have a great general-grade source beast, and it’s even a source beast with dragon bloodline.”

“Lugh is my best friend and also my competitor. Lugh’s Wyvern was obtained by chance from an incident, but it’s a long story. I’ll tell you about it in the future when I have the chance,” Austin said.

“Then I’m indeed a little jealous of his luck. Since you actually see him as your opponent, then you have to step up. Otherwise, he’ll soon pull away from you.” Spender looked at Big Mouth on the stage and sighed, then, he said to Austin who was beside him.

“It should be like this.” Austin didn’t refute anything, nor did he show any displeasure. He was well aware that only by putting in a lot of effort could he catch up with Lugh. Even though Lugh was now in the lead, however, he, Austin, was not someone who would give up easily. He firmly believed that he would definitely catch up.

After seeing Austin’s competitive expression, Spender quickly looked away. Then, he took out a bottle of lightning attribute healing potion from his spatial pouch and opened the passage leading to the Horned Frog’s soul, he threw the potion into the passage and let the Horned Frog consume it to heal its injuries.
