[Caocao??]
Strawman: Summoner, are you sure?
Li Pu: "Do you trust ."
[Cao...]
Strawman: Uh, well...
Unexpectedly, the strawman hesitated at this mont.
[Bro Champignon!]
But the strong mushroom on the other side was still chasing after Li Pu.
Bam!
It swung a double-handed hamr, which Li Pu dodged, causing dirt to fly everywhere.
"No rush, take your ti to think it over before answering."
During his dodging, Li Pu quickly opened his storage space.
And then he reached inside and pulled...
Clang clang clang!
A huge water cooler barrel was yanked out and fell to the ground.
But instead of water, the barrel was filled with... cola.
[Cao!!!!]
Strawman: Summoner! Ben Cao absolutely trusts you!
Strawman: Trusts more than my own dad!
Strawman: Even though Ben Cao doesn’t have a dad!
The strawman’s two dark, hollow eyes sparkled like stars imdiately.
"That’s it then."
Li Pu curled his lips, needing to use material temptation, the feelings are fading, fading.
All the conversation between the person and the straw was seen by Li Fan.
"Looks like he has a plan."
With a curious smile, he wondered what thod Li Pu would use to deal with the strong Champignon.
So he watched as Li Pu continued to attract the Champignon’s attention while the strawman sneaked into a corner and rubbed, rubbed, and rubbed so more.
"That strawman’s actions, sothing seems a bit off..."
Watching the twitching back figure, Li Fan’s mouth twitched slightly.
Before long, sothing unexpected happened.
[Eat Groove Groove Groove Groove!!!]
The strawman suddenly burst into flas!
Yelling at the top of its lungs, it charged straight at the Champignon and hugged it.
"Going all out like this?"
In that mont, Li Fan understood Li Pu’s intention.
It seed he intended to burn the strawman and take down the Champignon with it.
Once the Champignon went down, all it took for the strawman to return was a resurrection scroll.
And a summoning beast of this level required at most around 100 Crystal Coins for a resurrection scroll.
This was a very worthwhile exchange.
However, what intrigued him even more was...
"What’s its origin?"
"Seems a bit absurd, huh?"
"A strawman that can light a fire, that’s a first!"
That was what truly left Li Fan dumbfounded.
At this mont, the Champignon was frightened by this sudden event.
[Bro Champignon?!]
Despite its muscular build, as a plant-type mushroom beast, it was quite afraid of fire.
Soon, the flas on the strawman spread to it.
anwhile, the strawman quickly distanced itself.
Then it rolled desperately on the ground, trying to extinguish the fire on its body.
[Cao cao cao!]
Strawman: Summoner! You’re trying to murder Ben Cao!
It shouted while rolling around.
"No worries, I’ve prepared for this."
Li Pu remained calm.
He picked up the cola barrel and twisted open the cap.
Due to the collision earlier, the barrel was already filled with gas.
As soon as it opened, it sprayed a large amount of white cola foam.
Li Pu directed the spray of cola directly at the strawman.
[Glug glug... Cao! Glug glug... Cao!]
Strawman: Glug glug... what a waste ahhhh!
Strawman: Summoner! You might as well just kill Ben Cao!
It expressed its lant to Li Pu while gulping down the cola stream, its words muffled.
Li Pu paid no attention to what the strawman was saying, at this ti he was focused on the Champignon, which was also rolling chaotically from the fire.
If this went on a bit longer, it wouldn’t even need him to take action; the opponent would soon turn into roasted mushroom.
But although the Champignon was indeed afraid of fire, compared to the strawman, it fared a bit better.
By vigorously rolling and using the slightly damp valley soil, it eventually put out the flas.
However, this ordeal had left it with significant physical exhaustion.
Plus, the burns from the fire left it nearing exhaustion.
Yet even in this near-exhausted state, it seed a bit better off than the strawman, just seemingly.
The strawman at this ti managed to extinguish the fire but half of its body had already turned charred black.
Collapsing on the ground, it lay there barely moving as if at the brink of death.
If Li Pu hadn’t noticed it secretly licking the spilled cola on the ground, he’d think it was close to expiring for real.
The fact that it still had the mind to sneak bites indicated its condition was okay.
Based on feedback from the summoner’s panel, it was indeed so.
Feeling relieved, Li Pu resud his assault on the Champignon.
This fellow was actually a mutated Redhead Mushroom, thus it also belonged to the berserk type of monster.
But it was smarter than the average Redhead Mushroom, and knew that using [Muscle Flash] with almost depleted energy would only speed up its life depletion.
This hesitation beca the opening Li Pu could exploit.
With a series of exquisite kicks, after a few tsukkomi, he ended the battle.
"Fine, quite fine indeed."
As the battle concluded, Li Fan’s applause ca along.
Though the field had turned into a ss, and the process was far from pleasing, he fully approved of the result.
Having just started school for a few days and to be able to solo a LV5 D-grade monster.
This kid has so of the flair I had back at Imperial University.
"Is your summoning beast alright?"
Jumping down from the top of the valley, Li Fan first inquired about the strawman’s condition.
"No big harm, Teacher."
Li Pu answered while approaching the strawman.
"No, I an here."
Li Fan pointed at his head, gesturing to the strawman still licking the ground.
"Uh..."
Even thick-skinned Li Pu felt a bit embarrassed at this point.
Such a disgrace, truly too embarrassing.
It’s not like there’s none at ho, why insist on making a fool of oneself outside?
Thinking this, he kicked straight over.
[Cao!]
The kick was strong, sending the strawman rolling mid-air.
"That... wasn’t necessary to be that harsh."
Seeing this scene, Li Fan couldn’t help but frown.
He wasn’t fond of the kind of summoner who treated their summoning beast as a servant rather than a companion.
But Li Pu paid no heed to the teacher’s advice, and once the strawman hit the ground, he chased over with a series of exquisite moves, kicking and stomping.
[Cao!][Cao!][Cao!][Cao!]
The strawman cried out in pain, trying to roll and evade but never fast enough.
This scene was truly excessive, and just as Li Fan was about to intervene, Li Pu ca to a stop.
[Caocao~]
Then the strawman sprang up with a carp jump, lifting its hands in cheer.
Ben Cao fully recovered!
"???"
Stunned, Li Fan was thoroughly dumbfounded.
This was, up to this point today, the most absurd thing he had encountered.
Even more than the strawman catching fire.
The key was, the strawman wasn’t faking it, as there was no more charred blackness anywhere on its body, it was verdantly green all over!
"So this summoning beast actually... enjoys being mistreated?"
After a bit, he finally closed his mouth.
"Teacher, am I considered to have passed the test now."
By this ti, Li Pu had walked up to him.
The subtext: Hurry up with the advance paynt, Teacher.
