Chapter 240: Regarding How The Big Fat Bear Became a Qualified Meat Shield (Second Update)

In the sea of thunder, the Big Fat Bear strode over. The thunder imprint on its forehead gradually faded, but its power was still extraordinary.

It came in front of Su Hao and lowered its head(._-.). It wasn’t used to seeing the short Sprite Trainer.

“Howl, howl, howl!” It was still shouting excitedly.

Its voice was much louder and more imposing than before.

Su Hao felt that after completing the baptism of evolution and the legacy of the Crystal of Nature, it should be an indomitable bear, able to bear the heavy responsibility of being a team meat shield.

Three meters tall, fat… strong body, he looked very secure.

It was a pretty good meat shield…

“Gurgle~!”

“Roar?”

“Gurgle, gurgle!” Butterfly put one hand on its waist and pointed at the materials in the sea of thunder, asking it why it wasted them.

The Big Fat Bear turned to look.

Without it as a lightning rod to absorb the surrounding lightning, many materials with poor resistance to lightning had already been completely destroyed in the Thunder Prison, not even dregs left.

Seeing this scene, it froze.

The fat all over his body trembled, and the mighty and extraordinary aura instantly dissipated. It was clearly a huge body three meters tall, but it looked like a pitiful child who had made a mistake.

Su Hao was rendered speechless.

This sprite seems to be useless, why don’t…

He opened the interface again and tapped on the Big Fat Bear’s icon.

[Sprite: Thunder Roaring (Elite)]

[Characteristics: Thunder Net]

[Attributes: Thunder]

[Unique skill: Omitted]

[Mark:

(1) Thunder elemental control LV3;

(2) Thunder Mark (I)

[Special:

(1) Thunder Vortex: Countless thunder whips combine to form a thunder vortex, dragging the surrounding enemies in front of them.

(2) Meat Bouncing Ball: Incarnate into a huge thunder ball. It has the ability to change directions in the air, has pretty good defense, and strong destructive power.]

[Evolutionary pathway:

Rolling Beast → Electric Bear → [Thunder Roaring] → “Pitch Black” (Not Unlocked) (3 Intelligence Points to Search for Advancement Direction)]

It was a familiar interface.

It was a familiar routine.

He consumed Intelligence Points. Another “Ding” sound came in his ears.

The data streaked across like water, and ‘pitch black outlines’ unfolded one after another.

[Advancement Direction:

(1) Inheritance evolution: Compatibility 100% (unlock with 6 Intelligence Points);

…[+]

(3) Destructive Thunder Evolution: Compatibility 91% (unlock with 10 Intelligence Points);

(4) Armor Evolution: Compatibility 90% (unlock with 10 Intelligence Points);

…[+]

(6) Frenzy Evolution: Compatibility 72% (unlock with 10 Intelligence Points);

…[+]]

Su Hao discovered the blind spot.

The Intelligence Points needed for the Big Fat Bear to unlock the plan was actually less than Butterfly and Dazed Crow.

It was cheaper than the market price!

“Apart from inheritance evolution, the Intelligence Points needed for other advanced evolution are also less. This means that if it wants to undergo the fourth evolution, the materials and conditions needed are easier than other sprites.”

“I didn’t expect the Big Fat Bear to save Intelligence Points for me. Not bad, I didn’t raise it for nothing.”

“But the key still depends on whether it can become a qualified meat shield.”

Therefore…

Su Hao reached out and stroked the bear.

It felt a little better than before it evolved.

He rubbed it up and down. After dozens of seconds, he came to a conclusion—his attack power was too low, and he couldn’t compare to the Big Fat Bear’s current defense power.

“Butterfly, give it a try.”

Butterfly flew up, turned its fingers, and looked at it.

The Big Fat Bear took a step back, then another.

Seeing this, Butterfly… attacked instantly. A light spot the size of a grain of rice appeared on its fingertip. The light spot flew out and expanded to the size of a basketball in mid-air. With a whoosh, it flew in front of the Big Fat Bear.

In an instant…

The Big Fat Bear was originally capable of releasing countless bolts of lightning around its body. The lightning interweaved into a hemisphere-shaped round shield, blocking in front of it.

The energy ball rumbled, the aftershock from the explosion wasn’t strong.

Most of the energy was annihilated when it collided with the hemisphere-shaped Thunder Shield.

“Huh?”

The big fat bear half opened its eyes and looked pitifully at Big Sister, then at the Sprite Trainer.

Let go of the bear, sob ~!

“That move is ‘Thunder God’s Shield’, right?”

Thunder-elements are mainly destructive. It wasn’t that there weren’t any defensive unique skills, but… there wasn’t any unique skill called “Thunder God’s Shield”.

It was an inherited unique skill.

It was different from ordinary defensive unique skills. Its core was not “blocking” but “annihilation”.

As long as I destroy all the attacks, I won’t be injured~!

“This unique skill definitely has the potential to continue developing!”

“Come, use it again.”

“Howl howl ~!”

Without needing to be beaten, the Big Fat Bear was relieved and obediently displayed its unique skill.

Due to its inheritance, it was also very familiar with using the unique skill it had just learned. Lightning interweaved into a ball-shaped shield with crackling sounds, enveloping it.

Su Hao stared at the Thunder Shield and pondered. “By focusing on developing the destructive power of “Thunder God’s Shield” and incorporating it into the secret manual “Meat Bouncing Thunder Ball”, its destructive power will increase further.”

“And if the focus is on developing the plasticity of “Thunder God’s Shield”…”

He gestured. “Compress, compress a little more.”

The big fat bear scratched its head. Under its LV3 elemental control, the ball-shaped Thunder Shield gradually changed from a ball shape to a “bear-human” shape that matched its figure, like a battle armor that constantly flickered with lightning.

“Not enough, not enough. It can’t be lightning like armor, but real armor.”

He took out the computer he carried with him and found an e-book he had bought and downloaded in the past.

<Spiritual Force Solidification: From Not Understanding to Mastery>

Then, he pushed the computer in front of Big Fat Bear.

“You’re already a LV 3 sprite with elemental control. It’s very easy to learn how to solidify spiritual force.”

Su Hao said, “I’ll give you an assignment. Use a week to learn the technique of consolidating spiritual force. I’ll get a designer to design an armor for you according to your size. Then, you’ll use the consolidation of spiritual force to build a Thunder God Battle Armor using the violent Thunder and Thunder Elements as your own spiritual force battle armor.”

After he finished speaking, he added, “As long as you put on the armor, as long as you continue to forge armors and increase your defense, it won’t hurt even if you get beaten up in the future.”

“Howl? Howl, howl, howl!”

The Big Fat Bear agreed without hesitation.

…

Since the Big Fat Bear had successfully evolved, it had to first be pulled in front of Elder Panda to show off its skills.

As expected, it received praise and rewards from the big bosses of the bear tribes.

Su Hao then let it learn from the other Thunder Roarings, in exchange for it being able to stay and abuse its little bear buddies.

He spent half a day just being busy. When he returned to the accommodation, Su Hao stopped in his tracks.

He saw a human walking out of one of the suites.

It was a young man, and he was also stunned when he saw him.

“You also got the right to cultivate at Bear King Mountain?” the person opposite said.

Su Hao: “Obviously. What else?”

“Interesting, I thought I was the only one who got the favor of Bear King Mountain, I didn’t expect…”

The young man raised his brows. “You’ve successfully piqued my interest. Looking at you, you should also be a university student. My name is Liu Jianxuan, a second-year student from Dragon City University.”

“Su Hao, from Whale Island University.”

“As expected, you’re also a student of a prestigious school.” Liu Jianxuan looked behind him and continued, “That Thunder Roaring is the sprite you contracted on Bear King Mountain, right? I wonder if you dare to fight with my Luohan Panda.”

“Oh, of course. You can also use other sprites if you want.”

Liu Jianxuan’s Luohan Panda had a sharp gaze with a cold light on its claws. Standing there, it had the aura of a martial arts expert.

As for Big Fat Bear, it had its head lowered. It was immersed in the joy of its eight successive kills and had yet to recover from it.

It had no aura.

Seeing the Thunder Roaring in that state, Liu Jianxuan was a little disappointed.

A Thunder Roaring that didn’t look imposing was actually qualified to cultivate on Bear King Mountain?
