As soon as the divine beast left, Lufeng hurried into the Crocodile Area. When he saw that everyone was safe and sound, Lufeng smiled with a critical hit: "I thought I was a god, able to settle things for myself and save everyone. But in the end, it was all in vain. I didn't help you, didn't take down the divine beast in one hit, and now I'm hurt!"
Everyone was taken aback, unsure of what Lufeng was thinking.
"What’s wrong with you? Did your skill learning fail?" Wang Xiaojing asked with concern.
Lufeng smiled slightly: "No, no, I bravely... dodged when I encountered the divine beast!"
"What? I thought you had killed it!" Gao Chao said, disappointed. He then added, "I really hate divine beasts! If it comes back, let's just take it down!"
"Second Brother is getting bolder!" Qin Shou couldn't help but interject.
Gao Chao grinned proudly: "A miraculous choice; if I can do it, so can you!"
"That's not what I meant. I said you're bold enough to target a divine beast; your taste is getting heavier!" Qin Shou explained.
"Gao Chao, are you itching for a fight?" Gao Chao cracked his knuckles, gritting his teeth.
Qin Shou quickly stepped back, chuckling nervously as he continued to attack the crocodile.
At that moment, Lufeng noticed the crocodile. It was about his size, with a massive mouth full of sharp teeth, continuously snapping at Qin Shou. However, the attacks were truly weak; every time Qin Shou was hit, he only lost a little over a hundred health points.
Lufeng couldn't help but exclaim: "A meat shield is truly a meat shield; no one else can compare. Its skin is so thick that even the crocodile can't bite through!"
"Haha! Exactly! Qin Shou was bitten by the divine beast twice earlier; if it were me, I'd definitely be dead..." Gao Chao laughed heartily, completely unaware that the divine beast was about to return.
Seeing Gao Chao's gloating expression, Wang Xiaojing quickly interrupted, "Hurry up and kill the crocodile, the divine beast is coming again."
"Where is it? Where is it?" Gao Chao spun around, looking around but not even seeing a shadow of the divine beast. Suddenly realizing, he sighed, "I'd rather believe there are ghosts in this world than trust a woman's big mouth!"
"Gao Chao, are you looking for death?" Wang Xiaojing roared.
The young lady was furious, and Gao Chao quickly backed down, saying, "A good man doesn't fight with a woman. Everyone be careful; if the divine beast really comes, you need to remind me. If I hadn't discovered it earlier, you all would have met Meng Po!"
Murong Xiaoxiao replied calmly, "You yourself said it's just a possibility. What about the remaining one in a thousand?"
"Haha!" Everyone burst into laughter.
...
The group continued to attack the level 35 adult crocodile. Wang Xiaojing gradually adapted to the crocodile's terrifying appearance. Once the crocodile got close, she would go invisible and occasionally heal Lufeng and the others.
With Lufeng joining in, they were able to defeat the crocodile much faster. The key was not Lufeng himself but the perverse group skill Sunglasses Cat. Once Raging Inferno was unleashed, golden flames rained down from the sky, hitting the Crocodiles and instantly reducing their health by half. Coupled with the area attack skills of Gao Chao, Qin Shou, and Qiu Han, they quickly took down seven or eight crocodiles in just a few minutes.
After the crocodiles died, some were directly refreshed by the System, while others turned into catchable adult crocodiles, Crocodile Babies, and mutated crocodiles.
Lufeng and the others needed Crocodile Babies and adult crocodiles with Root Bones. The Crocodile Babies were key to their treasure plan, while adult crocodiles were used to enhance Root Bones.
This time they caught two Crocodile Babies again, but everyone was greatly disappointed.
"Ah, it's been so long, why are there only low-quality Crocodile Babies? It's frustrating!" Gao Chao complained dejectedly.
Lufeng hesitated, tangled in thought, and said with certainty, "Better to be picky than to settle. Throw away all those with a quality below 1600. We need adult crocodiles with Root Bone levels between 2 and 10; the more, the better. We should be able to directly upgrade the Second-Generation Crocodile to level 8 without any issues."
"Why not use Swallow to enhance Insight?" Murong Xiaoxiao asked, puzzled.
Lufeng chuckled wryly, "The prerequisite for enhancing Insight in adult Rare Beasts is that the carrying level of the Rare Beast participating in the enhancement must be greater than or equal to the level of the Rare Beast being enhanced."
Murong Xiaoxiao shook her head, still confused.
Lufeng paused and continued explaining, "To put it this way, we plan to use Crocodile Babies to cultivate Second Generation Babies. The carrying level of these babies is level 35, so we can only use adult Rare Beasts with a carrying level greater than or equal to 35 to enhance the Insight of the Second Generation Baby. Since Swallow has a carrying level of 5, it naturally cannot participate in enhancing the Insight of Crocodile Babies."
Murong Xiaoxiao was even more perplexed. "But I just caught a Crocodile Baby with a carrying level of 5."
"Are you sure?" Lufeng asked skeptically.
"If you don't believe me, look!"
Seeing Lufeng so confused, Qin Shou quickly explained, "Boss, you can't have forgotten this too. Rare Beasts below level 45 drop only 5-level capturable Rare Beasts when defeated. The carrying levels of the babies we players have are only 5, 45, 55, 65, 75, 85, and 95."
Lufeng felt overwhelmed. After checking the carrying level of the Crocodile Baby shared by Xiaoxiao, he finally realized, "Oh my god! I got it wrong. Let's change our plan; just catch Crocodile Babies and forget about catching adults."
Seeing Lufeng make a mistake, Gao Chao naturally wouldn't miss the chance to tease him. He joked, "The boss is just different; his thoughts are on another level from ours. Qin Shou, don't think for a second that the boss doesn't know that Crocodile Babies have a carrying level of 5. He's just making things harder for us so we can grow faster. Hehe, the boss has good intentions!"
Lufeng kicked off and laughed, cursing, "Why can't I forget? Hurry up and fight!"
After ten minutes, Lufeng was feeling a bit discouraged: "I was hoping for a Stamina Aptitude of 1600, but it turns out to be around 1300 on average. It's really infuriating. Let's lower the requirement; we'll keep those with Stamina Aptitude above 1500 for now. When the time comes, we can each bring them to level 30 and form three teams to breed. I refuse to believe that none of the six Second-Generation Crocodile will exceed 1800."
Seeing Lufeng's expression, everyone could tell that he was getting anxious. Being impatient would only lead to failure; without a better plan, Lufeng would inevitably be disappointed. When facing the unknown, if one does not remain calm, higher hopes will only lead to greater disappointment.
Qiu Han said calmly, "Boss, your expectations are too high. If even the Crocodile Baby Quality were that high, then those Quality above 1700 Second-Generation Crocodile wouldn't be in such demand. There are few people now, but after some time, this place will definitely become a battleground for gangs. We should focus on breeding Crocodile Baby. Let’s pair up and breed more Second-Generation Crocodile. I’ll gather more maps so we can farm together and get more Blood Sacrifice Skill Book. This way, everyone in our studio can afford to use Blood Sacrifice Crocodile, which will save us a lot on blue potions. Besides, the blue potions recover too slowly; they can't compare to high Blood Sacrifice Baby, right?"
After listening to Qiu Han's lengthy explanation, Lufeng felt understood and nodded. He said to everyone, "Qiu Han makes a good point. Let’s release all the adults we have. Each of us should bring an attacking baby and catch nine Crocodile Baby, focusing on those with Quality above 1400. We’ll take one hour; I don’t believe we can’t catch 54 male and female Crocodile Baby."
"Boss, wait! Better to be picky than to settle!" Gao Chao joked.
"I see you're itching for trouble!"
"Hehe~ Just kidding!" Gao Chao chuckled awkwardly while continuing to attack the adult crocodiles around.
Suddenly, the Guardian Beast appeared again.
Lufeng quickly reminded everyone, "Be careful! Let's go invisible when the Guardian Beast gets close!"
