Beast taming, starting from zero point novel Chapter 513

Chapter 513: Chapter 472: Such Madness

Cui Pingkun, as a rather powerful competitor in the national contest, had been thoroughly studied by Qiao Sang regarding his ace Pet Beast, Altar.

Mechanical Beasts require constant assembly and reinforcement.

Based on the needs of the Beast Tamer, this also leads to the versatile combat styles of Mechanical Beasts.

Altar is not one of those mass-produced in the Liaoxi Area; it was freely created by Cui Pingkun himself.

This is not something the average person can achieve.

You see, every kind that can form an evolutionary chain viable in the market requires a wealth of knowledge from predecessors, numerous material combinations, and incalculable trial-and-error costs to manufacture.

But Altar is not a Mechanical Beast that you’d find on the market.

Before Cui Pingkun created Altar, there was no information to be found about it online.

That is to say, searching online directly for Altar’s weaknesses was out of the question.

Qiao Sang could only search for weaknesses by watching Cui Pingkun’s previous match videos.

She noticed that Cui Pingkun would insert attribute cards into the slots of Altar based on his opponent’s Pet Beasts.

This type of operation could completely suppress an ordinary Beast Tamer.

Fortunately, each stage’s Mechanical Beast has a limited energy storage within, and limitations such as power system, control system, and module load would not allow a Mechanical Beast to learn skills without restriction or arbitrarily increase proficiency levels.

So it wasn’t enough to make Altar invincible.

However, the fact that it can deploy different attribute skills based on the opponent is quite a headache.

Qiao Sang had given it serious thought.

No matter which Pet Beast she sent out, the opponent could potentially insert a counteracting attribute card into Altar’s slots.

If that was the case, it would be better to send Lubao, her strongest chance.

No matter what kind of attribute cards were in Altar’s slots, at its core, it was still a Mechanical Beast.

If it was a Mechanical Beast, no matter how strong its defense or offense, its internals would be its vulnerability.

Lubao had Water Fusion properties, and while other attribute beasts would struggle to penetrate, a Mechanical Beast was assembled from machinery.

No matter how precisely assembled at the head, torso, and limbs, there was always a gap somewhere to sneak into.

Altar’s assembly was precise, with virtually no visible gaps in the connections, but due to the need for energy output, there were release devices in its palm centers and on its back where dual blades were mounted that communicated with the internals.

Lubao’s initial goal was not to attack Altar with Water Jet Thrust, but to use it to get close enough to perform Water Fusion and take the opportunity to enter through the release device on Altar’s back.

"Al... Alt..." Feeling the movements inside, Altar exhibited an expression of terror.

It had no choice but to turn to its own Beast Tamer for help.

Qiao Sang curled the corner of her mouth and spoke, "Water..."

Cui Pingkun, frightened, his face changed drastically, shouted to interrupt:

"I surrender! I concede this match!"

Cui Pingkun’s heart raced, adrenaline surged, and inward panic was unbearable, cold sweat streaming down his face.

Altar was his creation. It was okay to lose the match, but if Altar’s internals were damaged, there was no telling how long it would take to restore it to its original state!

Mechanical Beasts were not like ordinary beasts; any damage to their internal structure could not be mended by healing skills.

Altar was his own invention, and he could only gradually try to repair it by himself. He dared not even think about the time and materials this would entail!

This was a surrender? Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at the Mechanic wearing a judge’s badge on the side of the arena.

Following Qiao Sang’s gaze, Cui Pingkun almost exploded with urgency:

"I’ve surrendered already! Announce it quickly!"
