Chapter 429: Heaven-Defying Skill! Stronger Than Anything He Had Seen Before!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Three-attribute mutated beasts were undoubtedly rare in this world.
Wang Xiao even had sufficient reason to suspect that this [Cloud Beast] was the only soldier on the Blue Planet that was naturally compatible with three attributes. Moreover, this “unique” range was not only limited to mutated beasts, but also all the known types of soldiers!
Coupled with the diamond quality of this [Cloud Beast], its future potential was definitely limitless. Even if it needed ten years of nurturing to pass its infancy, it was believed that countless lords would desire to have it.
Its value might not be as high as that batch of resources worth more than 100 billion, but it was definitely not a small sum. However, the Lord’s Shop had given it to Wang Xiao as a gift. He really should not think too much about it. “If they really didn’t know, they’ve made a loss this time. But if they knew…”
Wang Xiao muttered to himself and his expression gradually became strange.
At first, he thought that the Lord’s Shop had given him this beast egg to verify if his ability to quickly nurture mutated beasts was true. However, if the Lord’s Shop knew that this [Cloud Beast] was innately compatible with three attributes, this behavior would be very suspicious.
No one would use such a precious thing to verify a skill, no matter how rich the Lord’s Shop was.
Thinking of this, Wang Xiao felt that there was a high chance that the Lord’s Shop did not know. After all, hatching beast eggs was like stone gambling. Although one knew what species the mutated beasts inside was, no one knew what would appear before the hatching was successful.
“Looks like the heavens have finally favored me!”
Wang Xiao chuckled and concluded in his heart. Then, he seriously studied the introduction of the [Cloud Beast].
Perhaps because it was innately compatible with the three attributes, although the level of the [Cloud Beast] was inferior to the [Eight-Armed Vajra], the strength of the aura emitted by the two was comparable.
Moreover, just like the name of the [Cloud Beast], its skills had very short names.
However, other than the first skill of [Mimicry] Wang Xiao could roughly guess what it did, the remaining skills [Suffocation] and [Dream] made him clueless.
However, since it was a diamond quality soldier, there had to be something special. Therefore, Wang Xiao did not think too much about it. After a simple thought, he first ordered the [Cloud Beast] to activate the [Mimicry] skill.
As the order was issued, the well-proportioned white ball of the [Cloud Beast] began to surge violently, as if it had been rubbed and kneaded by a pair of invisible hands for a moment before finally turning into a human form.
Immediately after, facial features began to appear on the “face” of the [Cloud Beast]. Colors also appeared on the surface of its body. After two to three breaths, it actually transformed into Wang Xiao. Even the creases on its clothes were no different!
The two identical Wang Xiao stood face to face. To outsiders, it was simply like looking into a mirror. Such a realistic mimicry effect could simply be described as “uncanny workmanship”!
However, Wang Xiao looked at the “him” in front of him without the slightest joy on his face. The corners of his slightly sunken mouth even contained a hint of disdain.
Indeed, even he, the main body, felt that the mimicry of the [Cloud Beast] was difficult to distinguish. However, no matter how similar it was, it was useless in battle!
Its appearance could be changed, but the aura it emitted could not be changed. This skill could not even confuse the enemy. To a certain extent, this skill might not be as useful as the Silver Shadow Leopard’s [Floating Light and Shadow].
However, from another perspective, the [Cloud Beast]’s ball form was not fixed. At the very least, Wang Xiao did not have to worry about losing face.
After a moment of silence with a complicated expression, Wang Xiao finally asked, “Your skill… doesn’t mean that you can only mimic another appearance,
right?”
The [Cloud Beast] mimicked Wang Xiao, but it still did not seem to understand human language. When it heard this, it only looked at Wang Xiao in confusion, as if it did not understand what he was saying.
Wang Xiao sighed helplessly. The thought of giving up on the [Cloud Beast] in his heart became even stronger. However, before he could continue asking, a strong wind suddenly whistled over and the [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf] ran over from somewhere.
Seeing the two Wang Xiao standing here, the [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf] was clearly stunned for a moment. However, it had followed Wang Xiao the longest after all. It was only stunned for a moment before recognizing the real Wang Xiao. Then, it slowly walked to the side of the main body and let out a low whimper.
Wang Xiao seemed to understand something when he heard this. He frowned and said suspiciously, “I didn’t summon you!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the [Cloud Beast] at the side suddenly began to fade and change. A moment later, it transformed into the [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf].
Wang Xiao did not take it seriously. He waved his hand and was about to call the [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf] to leave when the Cloud Beast behind the mimic suddenly waved its claws at the air and actually slashed out a bright claw mark with lightning jumping!
“[Berserk Thunder]?!”
Wang Xiao recognized the claw mark at a glance. It was one of the common skills of the [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf]. When he saw the puzzled [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf] beside him, a bold thought suddenly surfaced in his mind—
Could it be that after the [Cloud Beast] mimicked the appearance of the target, it could still imitate the other party’s ability?
Thinking of the sudden appearance of the [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf] , Wang Xiao felt that it was not impossible. After thinking for a moment, he looked at the [Cloud Beast]. “Can you still transform into me?”
The [Cloud Beast] did not answer, but its huge wolf body began to quickly shrink. In just a moment, it returned to Wang Xiao’s appearance.
Wang Xiao pursed his lips and tried his best not to move. “Summon the [Silver
Shadow Leopard].”
A glint flashed in the eyes of the [Cloud Beast] that had transformed into Wang Xiao. Almost instantly, the [Silver Shadow Leopard] turned into a stream of light and ran over from afar!
Wang Xiao’s eyes instantly widened. He really never dreamed that a diamond quality [Cloud Beast] would actually have such a heaven-defying skill!
After activating [Mimicry], he could replicate the other party’s abilities. This meant that Wang Xiao would no longer fall into a situation where his soldier attributes were restrained.
Although he did not know for the time being if there was a level limit to the [Mimicry], with the quality of a level two diamond, even if there was really a limit to this skill, there would definitely not be many soldiers that the [Cloud Beast] could not mimic!
As he thought to himself, Wang Xiao could not help but become excited. However, for the sake of his reassurance, he still decided to test it first and figure out this [Mimicry] skill.
First, he waved his hand and let the [Ice Thunder Horn Wolf] and [Silver Shadow Leopard] leave. Then, Wang Xiao called the [Cloud Beast] to summon the two of them over. Other than the two of them, almost all of Wang Xiao’s soldiers had slipped away several times.
Through this test, Wang Xiao had basically figured out the effect of the [Mimicry] skill.
As there were no other diamond soldiers, Wang Xiao could not verify the “level limit”. However, his previous guesses were all confirmed. At the same time, he discovered something else.
That was, the [Cloud Beast]’s [Mimicry] skill could only be effective if the target was seen. If the target was out of its line of sight or left its line of sight
In this way, the conditions for activating the [Mimicry] skill became a little harsh.. However, even so, it was enough to satisfy Wang Xiao!
