The Slime in the Novice Village had all sorts of special abilities. For example, the black Slime had amazing defensive abilities. As a mutated BOSS, Big Fat did not have all the Slime's special abilities at the start. Even now, the poison damage special ability had not appeared.
However, the defensive special ability had already evolved on its own when Big Fat left Chen Mo and leveled up with the Flower Goblin Battle Spirit.
After using the defensive special ability, Big Fat's body was like steel. Together with the fire attribute ability it had obtained, it could unleash its fire attribute ability to the limit. The Black Phoenix also had fire attributes, but it could not be like Big Fat, who could become the nemesis of ice and water attributes.
Big Fat had many skills and abilities. After the Frostwater Giant and the Spirit Queen's trump cards could not do anything to Big Fat, it was naturally impossible for them to defeat Big Fat.
Big Fat majestically beat up the Frostwater Giant that was much bigger than it. The little squirrel, who was watching from afar, looked at Big Fat as its idol.
If a Slime could become so powerful, maybe it could too!
The Frostwater Giant's HP dropped rapidly from around 50% to 20% and then to 10%.
The Frostwater Giant, who had been using its ultimate skills since the beginning, did not mutate like most super BOSSes when its HP reached the critical point of 10%. Chen Mo heaved a sigh of relief. If the Frostwater Giant mutated again, even Big Fat would not be able to take it.
When the Frostwater Giant's HP dropped to 9%, it entered a heavily injured state. With a boom, it fell to the ground and could no longer fight back.
Whoosh!
A blue figure flashed. The Spirit Queen abandoned the heavily injured Frostwater Giant and fled into the depths of the dark forest.
"Chase, don't let it escape!"
Chen Mo was already prepared. He called out to Big Fat.
"Roar!"
The fatty let out a furious roar and chased after the Spirit Queen.
When the little squirrel saw this, he hurriedly chased after him.
Although Specter Queen was fast, Big Fat and Chen Mo weren't slow either. Since they were already prepared, Specter Queen didn't run for long before she was intercepted by Big Fat's lava flames.
Then, red flames spurted out of Big Fat's mouth, burning the Spirit Queen until she screamed.
The Spirit Queen didn't have much HP left. After being burned by Big Fat more than ten times, her HP was almost depleted. She entered a heavily injured state. Just like the Frost Giant, she collapsed to the ground, unable to move.
"How about contracting with me and becoming my beast? Look, I have so many powerful pets and mounts. I treat them well, so I won't treat you badly either."
Chen Mo walked over and said with a smile.
A Beast Contract Scroll would have a high chance of success if it was used on a heavily injured beast. However, for a Boss-level beast like the Spirit Queen, who was also a Boss-level beast with strong mental power, it would not be an easy task to succeed. Even if he used both of the Beast Contract Scrolls, he might not succeed.
However, if Specter Queen was willing, the success rate could easily reach 100%.
When he succeeded in contracting with Specter Queen, there was another scroll. He could also contract the Frost Giant at the same time, saving him the time to look for it. After contracting with Specter Queen, although it would be useless in a few months due to the level difference, it was still very strong for now.
"Hmph!
You can't kill me here anyway. No matter what you say, I won't contract with you! "
Specter Queen stared at Chen Mo fearlessly. She wasn't persuaded by Chen Mo.
As expected of a boss-level beast, her IQ was abnormally high. She knew that the people here couldn't kill beasts like them.
If Specter Queen were to fight to the death, things would really become a little troublesome.
"Roar!"
When Big Fatty heard this, he roared at Specter Queen in a threatening manner.
Specter Queen immediately glared back at him. "What are you roaring for? Don't think that you've won this time. It's just that that big guy isn't your opponent. If it were another boss-level beast, you definitely wouldn't be able to defeat me!"
Specter Queen said unwillingly.
While Specter Queen and Big Fatty were arguing, a grey figure quietly moved towards them.
This grey figure was extremely familiar with the pitch-black forest. His grey figure almost blended in with the pitch-black forest. When he moved in the pitch-black forest, even if one looked carefully, it was extremely difficult to discover him.
Needless to say, whether it was Big Fatty who was arguing or Chen Mo who was thinking of how to persuade Specter Queen.
As his attention wasn't on his surroundings, Chen Mo didn't know that a grey figure was approaching them.
After this grey figure approached Chen Mo and Specter Queen, a staff inlaid with an ancient grey gem appeared in his hand. Standing behind a pitch-black tree dozens of meters away, the grey figure moved his staff slightly. Then, two grey rays of light shot towards Chen Mo and Specter Queen on the ground like lightning.
As the grey light shot towards him, Chen Mo felt the light in his field of vision change. He suddenly became alert. Without thinking, he used the Blood Shadow Teleportation skill and left his original spot.
However, the grey light that shot towards him actually changed its direction the moment he teleported away. Its speed suddenly increased sharply as it shot towards him.
When he appeared at the new position of the Blood Shadow Teleportation, the grey light had also shot in front of him.
Chen Mo wanted to use the Blood Shadow Teleportation skill again to avoid this skill, but it was already impossible.
Seeing this, Chen Mo's expression couldn't help but change.
As he teleported, he also saw the grey figure that shot out the grey light.
The one who ambushed him and Specter Queen wasn't a player, but a Skeleton Mage in a grey robe with flashing blue flames in its eyes.
This was naturally not an ordinary Skeleton Mage. If he wasn't wrong, this Skeleton Mage was also a Boss-level beast.
If it was a player, this grey light would have been hit. Chen Mo wasn't too afraid. However, being hit by a Boss-level beast's skill was definitely a very bad thing.
However, no matter how bad it was, he couldn't avoid this skill of the Skeleton Mage.
Seeing that the grey light was about to hit Chen Mo, at this moment, in front of Chen Mo, a small purple figure suddenly swayed and blocked the grey light.
At such a distance, the grey light couldn't turn around the small figure again.
With a whoosh, the grey light shot onto the small figure.
Pu!
Then, the small figure fell straight from the sky.
Mutated Little Squirrel?
Chen Mo didn't expect that the little squirrel that had been following him would help him block a Boss-level attack at this time.
With the little squirrel's weak body, it would have been instantly killed by the Skeleton Mage's grey light.
However, Chen Mo glanced at the little squirrel that fell on the ground and found that although the little squirrel was lying straight on the ground, its purple tail and feet had started to turn grey, it was still breathing and wasn't dead.
However, the grey color on its body was spreading at a fast speed. If there were no accidents, it wouldn't be able to hold on for long.
"Roar!"
Seeing that Chen Mo was ambushed, Big Fat roared at the Skeleton Mage hiding in the dark forest. A magma flame shot towards the Skeleton Mage.
"Hehehe …"
Faced with Big Fat's angry attack, the Skeleton Mage let out a strange laugh.
It had no intention of dodging Big Fat's attack. Before Big Fat's attack could reach it, its skeleton body suddenly scattered on the ground and turned into a pile of grey bones.
However, there was a grey light on the bone. It carried the magic staff embedded with the ancient gem. With a swoosh, it shot into the pitch-black forest at an astonishing speed, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.
Big Fat's attack only hit a pile of broken bones.
When Chen Mo saw this scene, he immediately felt that this Skeleton Mage wasn't simple.
He grabbed the little squirrel on the ground and returned to the Spirit Queen's side with a few quick steps.
"Wah wah, I'm going to die, I'm going to die. That damn old Soul Devouring Sorcerer has been staring at me for so long, but it finally succeeded!"
The Spirit Queen was heavily injured, so the Skeleton Mage's attack landed on her body immediately.
Like the little squirrel, the Spirit Queen's blue phantom body began to turn grayish-white from the bottom.
The grayish-white color was spreading, but the speed of its spread was much slower than the little squirrel's.
"Soul Devouring Sorcerer?
That's the name of that Skeleton Mage?
This state will lead to death?
Is there any way to remove it? "Chen Mo asked with a frown.
The little squirrel's state was very bad. If he didn't find a way to remove it quickly, it wouldn't last long.
"Remove it?
There's no way to remove it. This is that damn old man's signature skill, Soul Devouring. It can only take effect when the conditions are met. Once it takes effect, there's no way to remove it!
Wah wah, I'm going to die, I'm going to die! "
The Spirit Queen was still screaming, yelling that she was going to die.
It couldn't be removed?
Chen Mo immediately used Eternal Light. Eternal Light could remove almost all negative states.
Eternal Light flashed and enveloped the little squirrel. However, the gray light on the little squirrel's body didn't ease at all. It continued to spread.
"Could it be that killing that Soul Devouring Sorcerer can't remove it?" Chen Mo thought of a final solution.
The Soul Devouring Sorcerer had just left. Although the way it left was strange, it might not have gone far.
"Of course you can kill it, but this damn old man is very far away from here. What appeared just now wasn't his body, but a skeleton puppet controlled by his soul.
This damn old man is very cunning. By the time you find him, this little guy and I will be dead.
Ah, I can't take it anymore. I'm going to die, I'm going to die … "
After answering Chen Mo's question, the Spirit Queen screamed again.
While Chen Mo and the Spirit Queen were talking, nearly half of the little squirrel's body had turned grayish-white.
Chen Mo had already seen that the Soul Devouring Sorcerer's Soul Devouring Sorcerer's Soul Devouring Sorcerer's Soul Devouring Sorcerer's skill would take effect at a very different speed depending on the target's level.
Although the Spirit Queen was screaming that she was going to die, the speed at which the gray light spread on her body was much slower than the little squirrel. It would take at least five minutes for the Spirit Queen to die.
However, the little squirrel couldn't even last a minute.
There was no other way.
Chen Mo didn't think too much. He took out a Beast Contract Scroll and used it on the little squirrel.
It was impossible to kill the Soul Devouring Sorcerer in a minute. The only way to save the little squirrel was to form a contract with it.
If it was outside, Chen Mo could still use the Capture skill. But here, only the Beast Contract Scroll was useful.
The Beast Contract Scroll turned into a blue light and entangled the little squirrel. Chen Mo didn't know what message the little squirrel received, but the blue light quickly drilled into the little squirrel's body.
System Notification: Contract successful!
The mutated squirrel has become your warbeast!
The little squirrel naturally had a very good impression of Chen Mo. Its rarity and level weren't high, so the contract was easily successful.
Following that, the moment the contract was successful, the little squirrel's body burst out with a dazzling white light.
System Notification: Your warbeast "Mutated Squirrel" has evolved!
What's going on? It evolved as soon as the contract was formed?
Chen Mo originally thought that by forming a contract with the little squirrel, he could save the little squirrel's life. After all, the little squirrel was attacked by the Soul Devouring Sorcerer because it helped him block the skill.
He didn't expect that the little squirrel would evolve as soon as the contract was formed.
The little squirrel's evolution didn't last long. It only took a moment for the little squirrel to complete its evolution.
Chen Mo looked over and found that the little squirrel's appearance had changed a little after its evolution. A small blue gem appeared on the little squirrel's forehead.
Chen Mo curiously looked at the little squirrel's attributes. He found that the little squirrel was also level 50, but its HP and defense were a mess. It was pitifully low.
However, it was different from the one he had appraised before. The little squirrel now had an additional skill.
Heart of Freedom: Yearning for freedom. Warbeasts with this skill will not be bound by players. They can fight together with other pets and warbeasts at the same time!
Heart of Freedom skill!
Chen Mo had seen the Heart of Freedom Gem before and knew that it was one of the rarest items in the game. However, he didn't expect it to have the Heart of Freedom skill.
As for the Heart of Freedom skill, it was undoubtedly one of the most peculiar skills that Chen Mo had ever seen. Although it didn't have any attack attributes, it allowed the beasts to not be bound by the player's control. It also allowed the beasts with this skill to fight alongside other beasts.
Simply put, warbeasts with the Heart of Freedom were very powerful. Other than having a contractual relationship with the contractor, nothing else changed.
If all of a hunter's pets had the Heart of Freedom, then the hunter's pets wouldn't need to be changed at all. Pets with the Heart of Freedom wouldn't be restricted by the hunter's level.
It was a pity that the Heart of Freedom skill was too difficult to appear. Even the powerful Ceci Hailow and Big Fatty didn't have the Heart of Freedom skill. He didn't know how this mutated little squirrel's Heart of Freedom skill had evolved.
"Wow, you actually contracted with this little squirrel … It's over, we're going to die, we're going to die …"
After seeing Chen Mo contract with the little squirrel, the Spirit Queen shouted from the side.
… …
The first one was even worse.
