Chapter 259: Platinum Treasure Chest

The Little Spirit Fox was frightened by the attack just now, so she stopped her contemptuous attitude.

The Little Spirit Fox, who had entered a serious posture, was burning with flames on her body, which highlighted her desire for victory.

Seeing that the first attack was almost effective, the Shadow Stone Beetle did not change its fighting style. It dived underground to prepare for the second round of roundabout battle.

It jumped out of the sand again, like a Dragon swimming in the sand river.

This time, it aimed at the neck of the Little Spirit Fox.

Using the sand as a cover, the method was very good, confusing the Little Spirit Fox.

But the Little Spirit Fox had already suffered a loss once, so when it saw the dust rolling up from the front, it also maintained its vigilance at its feet.

When the Shadow Stone Beetle pounced on it, three tails almost stepped on the spot to jump away.

After dodging the Beetle’s attack, it was the best time to counterattack.

It opened its mouth and spat out a mouthful of fire. The fire roasted the Shadow Stone Beetle that jumped up.

It even gave off a fragrant smell…

A layer of the Beetle’s skin was burnt off. It was in great pain. It rolled on the ground and prepared to dive underground to escape.

Three more fireballs flew over from different directions.

Then, a violent explosion was heard.

Sand and dust flew in all directions from the explosion.

Mcgee used his hand to block the sand that was spreading over. He did not dare to close his eyes. He was still in the middle of battle. If he was a Shadow Stone Beetle…

If he could not deal with his subdued beast, he would definitely start with the things around his subdued beast.

As expected, while the sand and dust were flying, the Shadow Stone Beetle wriggled its body and pounced on Mcgee and the Gold-swallowing Beast.

As the guardian of the treasure chest, if it failed to protect the treasure chest, it would only be tamed and killed.

The Shadow Stone Beetle’s pincers were broken, and the top of the pincers was in the shape of a blade.

It planned to use the pincers to stab Mcgee’s body. Since it was going to die, and it could not defeat the Little Spirit Fox, it naturally wanted to make it regret it!

“Even if I die, I’ll drag two of you down with me.”

“You can go by yourself.”

Mcgee had long expected the Shadow Stone Beetle to have such a move. It rolled to the left to dodge the Beetle’s attack. Because it was already riddled with injuries, its speed had decreased a lot, giving Mcgee a chance to dodge.

Due to inertia, the Shadow Stone Beetle rushed a few steps forward, not giving it a chance to turn around.

The Dragon Slayer Sword easily broke through its shell.

The Little Spirit Fox was also angered by the Shadow Stone Beetle’s despicable behavior. It jumped onto the dying Beetle and burned it again until the Beetle stopped moving.

“I’m sorry.” The Little Spirit Fox did not expect to travel with Mcgee, but it almost brought him into a dangerous place.

“It’s good that you know you’re wrong.” Mcgee pulled out the Dragon Slaying Sword and put it back into his space bag.

Being weak was not a hindrance to survival, arrogance was.

The Little Spirit Fox was indeed very strong now, but ever since the appearance of the Snow Spirit Fox, it had been eager to find an opportunity to show itself. This kind of arrogance was very easy to take advantage of.

Hopefully, this experience could teach it a lesson.

After the guardian of the treasure chest died, the original desert area also shrank.

It turned out that this desert was where the treasure chest was hidden, just like how the Wind-splitting Dragon used a tornado to protect its golden treasure chest.

More than 100 meters away, in the center of the desert, there was a platinum treasure chest.

Last time, when he opened the treasure chest, he obtained the materials for the Snow Spirit Fox’s evolution skill. This time, he did not know what he would obtain.

[Advanced fire skill book * 1]

[Advanced wind skill book * 1]

[Advanced water skill book * 1]

[Advanced lightning skill book * 1]

[Advanced nature-type skill book * 1]

[Advanced light-type skill book * 1]

[Advanced darkness-type skill book * 1]

There were not any materials in the treasure chest, but they were all good stuff.

Other than relying on their own skills and comprehension, familiars relied on skill books to learn new combat techniques.

The strongest fire-type familiar Mcgee had was the Little Spirit Fox in front of him. It was useless to keep it anyway, so Mcgee placed the skill book in front of the Little Spirit Fox.

[Are you sure you want the Little Spirit Fox to learn the skills in the advanced fire-type skill book?]

[Learning a new skill might cause the learned skill to be unable to be used.]

“I’m sure.”

After Mcgee made his choice, two flames crossed each other and wrapped around the Little Spirit Fox.

“What is this?” The Little Spirit Fox was a little flustered. Until now, it had not evolved, nor had it learned any other skills.

“Don’t worry. It’s a learning process,” Mcgee comforted.

Soon, the flames completely dissipated, leaving the Little Spirit Fox behind.

[Congratulations to Mcgee’s Little Spirit Fox for learning a new fire-type spell — spirit flame.]

[Spirit flame: Enhances the flame bomb skill. After the flame bomb explodes, a portion of the flame will stick to the opponent’s skin. The duration will be affected by the strength of the subdued beast.]

Just the skill description alone was already very powerful. The Little Spirit Fox did not have to change his original fighting style. He only had to strengthen his skill.

“The Little Spirit Fox, become a nature-type.”

Mcgee wanted the Little Spirit Fox to continue learning the advanced nature-type skills.

After the Little Spirit Fox received the benefits, he also felt that he had become green in appearance.

[Nature power skill upgraded to level 2.]

[Cooldown reduced to 36 hours.]

Originally, the power of nature was a skill that could only be used once a week to allow plants to grow quickly.

Now that the cooldown had been greatly reduced, the food problem had also been further improved.

“Not bad.” Mcgee felt that the only regret was that this was not a combat skill and was not useful against the Eastern Dragon.

“Master, when can I complete the evolution?” The Little Spirit Fox thought of the ice spirit wood that the Snow Spirit Fox had obtained and the Dragon that had evolved into a Spirit Dragon. It was extremely envious.

Even the Giant Diving Crocodile that it had always looked down on had evolved. Not only had its strength increased, but its appearance had also become more cool.

Only it maintained its original body size of a young Fox.

“Evolution materials can be desired but not obtained.” Mcgee did not know what materials were needed for the Little Spirit Fox’s evolution, but it looked like it was already in its most advanced form.

After all, there were only a few familiars in the world that could freely switch their attributes.

“Let’s go search for some more treasure chests and then return to the Alliance.”

After a week of exploration, Mcgee had already collected twenty gold treasure chests and six platinum treasure chests.

He had obtained a large number of building blueprints and materials, preparing to return home to complete a wave of construction.

The scenery of season 4 was much better than the previous three seasons. Moreover, because the survivors had formed different Alliances, the intensity of the competition for resources had decreased.

However, something unexpected happened.

[Because the survivors have formed more than six Alliances on their own.]

[The Alliance battle has officially begun.]

[The groups are as follows…]

Originally, after entering the new season, there would be all kinds of challenges.

First, it was the treasure chest segment, then it was to urge the survivors to fight for the only resources available.

Finally, it was to use the Blood Moon attack to deal a fatal blow to the survivors.

In order to select the final winner.

The treasure chest exploration segment had ended. Originally, they thought that they could pass the killing phase.

Unexpectedly, it turned into a group battle.
