62 Chapter 61 - Light Orb

Chapter 61 – Bluish-White Light Orb

Sensing something was coming, the Snow Sheep's snow wool suddenly expanded and covered its whole body.

"Hmm?" Lucas recognized the move. "Wool Guard but snow version similar to Fury's Fur Guard," The Snow Sheep was using Snow Guard. A different version of Wool Guard.

"So, all sheep monsters will have the guard move?" Lucas wondered. The White Sheep could use the Wool Guard and the Snow Sheep could use the Snow Guard. He was not wrong to have this thought.

Raillow's Lightning Slash landed but nothing else happened other than a dent on the pile of snow. Raillow used Lightning Slash one more time but the result was the same.

Lucas appraised the sheep's stat and similar to the White Sheep, the Snow Sheep had a high defense stat. Added with the Snow Guard skill, the Snow Sheep's defense increased a lot.

'So, all sheep monsters can be a good tank,' thought Lucas. The White Sheep was like this too. It already had high defense and with the Wool Guard, its defense increased a lot. The sheep monsters were naturally a good tank. With more training and gaining more defensive skills, they could be a real tank.

"Raillow, melt the snow with Fiery Scratch. Then, use the Light Dash immediately and strike any opening you see," Qin Yun commanded.

Raillow used Fiery Scratch and tried his best to melt the Snow Guard. Sensing that its guard was breaking, the Snow Sheep suddenly moved. It knew that if it kept standing still like that, the guard would not last long.

The Snow Sheep started rolling and tried to get away from Raillow. Raillow chased after the rolling Snow Sheep. The roll got faster and with naked eyes, they could see that the snow covering the Snow Sheep was getting thicker and larger.

"Qin Yun, it is a skill," Lucas told Qin Yun. "That is Snow Roll. The Snow Sheep attacking move. The skill is similar to Fury's Roll but it gets stronger the more snow it collects. You need to end this fast," Lucas gave his advice. Lucas saw this skill when he appraised the Snow Sheep.

The skill was nothing in an area without snow but in a place where snow was abundant, the skill was a force to be reckoned with. Qin Yun needed to act fast or the skill would grow in power a lot.

Qin Yun nodded. Raillow chased the Snow Sheep with Light Dash and it kept using Fiery Scratch to attack the Snow Sheep but there was no effect. Qin Yun was stuck. He did not know what he should do. He tried thinking but none of Raillow's skills would be able to stop the Snow Sheep.

"Brother Lucas… I don't think Raillow can end this," Qin Yun gave up. Raillow was getting tired too as his Light Dash and Fiery Scratch was getting weaker. Although he was now a Tier 5 monster, Raillow had yet undergone any training to increase its stats. So, he was the same as before.

"Ask Raillow to use Lightning Slash and attack the ground in front of the Snow Sheep," Lucas told Qin Yun.

"???" Qin Yun was confused but he followed Lucas's advice. Raillow attacked the ground in front of the Snow Sheep with Lightning Slash and a small explosion happened to leave a small hole on the ground.

The Snow Sheep hit the small hole at high speed and suddenly, it was lifted off the ground into the air. The Snow Sheep was still rolling fast but it was losing its speed and stability. Not only that but as the snow had no solid surface to harden, it was breaking due to the high speed and instability.

"A chance! Raillow, use Fiery Scratch and stop the roll," Qin Yun commanded. Raillow followed the command and struck the Snow Sheep. Immediately, the snow covering the Snow Sheep broke revealing its body.

Raillow used Lightning Slash and hit its body. He used the skill three times before the Snow Sheep lost its life. The Snow Sheep fell on the ground. Once it fell, four bluish-white light orbs came out of its body.

Lucas and Qin Yun were surprised. There was no such thing ever before. They had killed the Snow Buffalo, the Snow Wolf, the Snow Boxing Rabbit, and the White Wolf but none of them had ever released anything out of their body.

Raillow was excited to see the four light orbs. He immediately went to it and absorbed it into his body. Immediately after that, Qin Yun got a notification from the system that the Snow Seed completion was increased to 4%.

"…" Qin Yun was silent.

"Is the completion of the Snow Seed increase?" Lucas asked. Since they target the Snow Sheep because of the Snow Seed, that light orbs must be related to it.

Qin Yun nodded. "So, killing a snow element monsters will give the light orbs to increase the completion." Qin Yun understood now.

'Is that the 'something' the monsters get from the light?' Lucas asked Sery.

[No. All monsters have this.] Sery answered with a short sentence and stayed silent after that.

"Let's do a bit more test," Lucas suggested. He wanted to figure out more about the light orbs.

Fury flew towards the pack of the Snow Sheep again and attracted the attention of one of the Snow Sheep. When the Snow Sheep saw its dead comrade, it got angry.

"Fury, end the Snow Sheep now," Lucas commanded. Since Qin Yun had his turn earlier, it was Lucas's turn now. Raillow needed to rest too.

Fury rolled mid-air and struck the Snow Sheep at fast speed. The Snow Sheep wanted to activate the Snow Guard but it was too slow. Fury was faster. As the Snow Sheep was injured from Fury's Roll, it was unable to activate the Snow Guard.

After Fury had hit the Snow Sheep almost ten times, he used Tackle while on a Roll.

The attacking power multiplied and ended the Snow Sheep in that one attack. Using Tackle alone was enough to kill the Snow Sheep but Fury was used in combining his skills. The Snow Sheep died and once again, four bluish-white light orbs flew out of its body.

Fury was excited to see the orbs and wanted to absorb it but, "Fury, stop!" Lucas stopped him. Fury looked at Lucas with sad eyes. It was watery too. Fury wanted to cry. "I want to test something. Please wait a bit," Lucas said while smiling.

He glanced at Raillow and said to Qin Yun, "Order Raillow to eat the orbs."

"Ha?" Qin Yun was confused. He wanted to say something and realized that Lucas wanted to test something and this must be one of the tests. Qin Yun gave Raillow the command but Raillow refused to eat the orbs.

"Raillow, why do you refuse?" Qin Yun asked. Raillow pointed at Fury and gestured that Fury was the one killing it and thus, he should get the orbs.

"But Brother Lucas gives the orbs to you. You should take it," Qin Yun persuaded but Raillow still refused. He tried a few more times and Raillow followed. He got closer to the orbs and touched it but his hand passed through the light orbs.

Not only that but Raillow tried to absorb it similar to before but the orbs were unmoving.

Seeing that nothing would happen from Raillow's side, Lucas gave Fury the permission to absorb the orbs and Fury did it without much problem.

"Well then, we find out one thing about the orbs. Only the one that kills it can absorb the orbs," Lucas gave his conclusion. His first test was done.

"Let's do the second test," Lucas said. Fury once again flew to attract one more Snow Sheep.
