<h4>Chapter 514: Jelly’s Skill</h4>


    After Jelly evolved into a Quasi-Boss, it obtained a skill, Devour Crystal Core.


    It could, after digesting the Crystal Cores it devoured, extract the stats and attributes contained within the Crystal Cores, and then merge and synthesize the essence it extracted into substances that it could use to attack. At the same time, it would also obtain strong corresponding attribute resistance.


    Phoenix fed it a water crystal core, so it could condense the water in theke into cannon-like Ice Cones before shooting them out to inflict damage on its target. The Ice Cones, after hitting arge-sized creature, could even slow the movement of the target to a certain extent.


    If Phoenix had fed it an Earth attribute Crystal Core, Jelly would be able to devour all the sand around it and release incredibly destructive “Stone Bullets” that would also burst into smaller pieces upon impact.


    As for Fire attribute Crystal Cores, the attacks would be the highlypressed “Condensed Fireballs” that also had area-of-effect damage.


    If Jelly were to be in a ce where there was no water, earth or fire that it could synthesize, as long as the environment was not a vacuum, Jelly could still produce “Wind des.” After all, air existed everywhere.


    These attacks were all categorized as “normal attacks,” and did not consume any MP.


    Jelly could continuously release these attacks. As long as it did not deplete its energy and “ammunition,” it could deal continuous damage.


    Simply put, the Quasi-Boss Grade Jelly was now the equivalent of a “Cannon fort.” It used super-extrarge energy heavy cannons that were imbued with all kinds of effects as its ammunition.


    Of course, as mentioned earlier, thisbat method had its limits.


    For one, Jelly could only devour and digest one energy Crystal Core in a certain period of time. The higher the grade of the crystal core, the more time it needed to digest and extract the energy from the crystal.


    In PK matches that typically did notst very long, it could digest a Level 30 Commander Grade Crystal Core, at most. And the energy of a crystal core of this level could only produce around a hundred “cannons” at most.


    As such, the “Giant Ball” the size of a house that it had just created using the water from theke only looked frightening. It could notpletely use up all the water and turn them all into Ice Cones.


    The second limitation was actually rted to the first one.


    Energy crystal cores cost credits. The cheapest low-level crystal core would cost a few thousand credits, using the skill to attack once would cost a few thousand credits.


    The expenditure was even higher than a Machine Gunner.


    If it weren’t for the fact that Phoenix had just got her hands on arge chunk of credits, raising Jelly, whose appetite was evenrger than 24K, would have been incredibly difficult.


    Of course, if Phoenix were to choose to join a guild, after witnessing Jelly’s strength, no guild would even hesitate to provide her high-grade energy crystal cores.


    Jelly’s ability was considered a lethal weapon during PKs, and when raiding bosses. If used correctly, it couldpletely turn small-scale battles around.


    At that time, many higher-ups from several of therge guilds in Storm City among the audience had already sent people to gather information about Phoenix.


    Naturally, they were also trying to gather information on Feng Luo and Big Pineapple.


    However, Feng Luo hadpletely hidden all his messages. Additionally, the system’s auto face-modification setting made it so that nobody knew where and how to start.


    “A Quasi-Boss Grade pet. This should be the first Quasi-Boss Grade pet in Storm City, right?” However, in the field of view of the Scout yer who had rushed down to the oasis, a few Storm City yers who could be considered Feng Luo’s “acquaintances” were there.


    The Doctor yer, White Crescent, was staring at the battle scene in front of her. She turned around and looked at Red Queen, who was d in a red energy robe and said, “Yeah. Should be. But I heard that Starry Sky Company recently purchased a Quasi-Boss Grade pet biochip at a high price recently. They are going to auction it at the Storm City auction hall. So, it is possible that a second one will be appearing soon!”


    Red Queen’s expression remained as calm as always.


    “Sister Red, do you n to buy that biochip?” A tall and slender female Scout yer asked with a gentle smile.


    “I wasn’t that interested before this. After all, a pet biochip of this grade will definitely have an inted price, too inted to be exact. But after watching this battle, I have to say I am a little intrigued.” Red Queen looked like she was considering it.


    “In fact, the pet isn’t all that important. The one to look at should be that Sniper. Why do I get a sense of familiarity from this scene before me?” zed Ice asked as if she was trying to remember something in her usual white outfit.


    After a while, she turned around and asked ck Panther who was fully d in a ck and white camouge outfit, “ck Panther, what do you think?”


    ck Panther frowned and did not speak. However, his gaze was glued to Feng Luo’s direction.


    ...


    “Bang!”


    Feng Luo fired another shot.


    The Barrett rang for the third time. The Machine Gunner, who was sent flying to the ground by Jelly, was shot by a B-Grade Shield-breaking Energy Bullet. A bullet hole appeared on the chest area of hisbat uniform.


    “-4275!”


    However, due to the angle, the hit did not deal a Fatal Damage.


    However, the yellow Weak Point Damage inflicted by the shot was enough topletely empty his remaining health gauge.


    Truth be told, Jelly actually had a fault that should not be considered a weakness.


    Jelly’s AI was far less developedpared to 24K. The three pets beside it were the greatest threat, but the first target it chose to attack was the Golden Rattlesnake, then after that, the Machine Gunner across it, as the two caused argermotion.


    Luckily, the AI of pets could be improved, and it looked like Phoenix had a lot of raising and teaching to do in the future.


    “F*ck! No, the two of you will have to fend for yourself!” After the Machine Gunner was KO’ed, the Heavy Armor Warrior had no choice and activated Charge and charged into the oasis under the cover of his shield.


    He had no choice. Among the three backline damage dealers, two were in the Heavy Injury status while the other had already been killed.


    With the opponent high-damage Sniper no longer suppressed, as a melee fighter, he would be a sitting duck waiting to be attacked on the sandy hill. By entering the oasis and working with the three pets as well as the Scout yer, he still had a chance.


    “Ta, ta, ta...”


    The Heavy Armor Warrior charged toward the oasis while the Scout yer on Feng Luo’s side finally met a person whom he could attack. He raised the Excellent Grade assault rifle in his hands and began shooting at the Heavy Armor Warrior.


    However, the bulletsnded on the shield, and on top of the Heavy Armor Warrior’s head...


    “-97, -98, -98...”


    The numbers that appeared were a series of white damage numbers, and the situation was simr to when Big Pineapple was shot earlier.
