Beast Taming: I can even raise gods and demons!

Chapter 117 Even Chu Xuan has become so insidious and vicious?

"Um."

Chen Fan returned to the initial weapon interface and began searching for weapons such as finger cots and brass knuckles.

Shen Hongxiu and the others looked curiously at the old ape, then at Chen Fan's computer screen.

Buying weapons or armor for your beast tamer is not a rare thing.

After all, armor can improve defense, while weapons can improve attack power.

However, the appearance of tamed beasts is extremely varied, and many of them are enormous, so how easy is it to create a suit of armor that fits them?

Taming beasts in human form is relatively simpler.

Just like Chu Xuan's tamed beasts...

The Darkblood Stone Golem is inherently strong in defense and has defensive skills, but Chu Xuan also dressed it in armor and gave it a large hammer, making it incredibly powerful and destructive.

However, it is relatively more troublesome for the Desert Wind Eagle and the Heavy Beetle King to use weapons.

Are you going to carry a knife and start hacking people?

Helmets, as a type of armor used for localized combat, are indeed usable.

Chen Fan wanted to get a set of weapons for the old ape, mainly because the old ape's current attack skills were rather awkward.

[Monster Attribute]: Shadow

[Racial Skills]: Shadow Curtain, Shadow Claw, Frog Transformation, Ghost Step

"Shadow Claw" is the only attack skill that the old ape currently has.

When fighting against Beastmasters or Beastmasters of the same level, this move, combined with Shadow Curtain and Shadow Step, is actually quite terrifying.

Because ordinary beast tamers or beast masters of the same level cannot see the old ape, they lose the initiative and are almost certain to be hit by this move.

Once you're hit by this slow-acting poison, you're doomed unless you find an antidote.

Even among beasts of the same level, if the old ape encounters a beast with extremely strong defense, such as a Darkblood Stone Golem or a Black Iron Dragon Turtle, he can probably only hide in the shadows and sigh helplessly.

Because this move is very difficult to break through the opponent's defense!

If they really fight, neither of them can defeat the other.

If the old ape hides, neither the Darkblood Stone Golem nor the Black Iron Dragon Turtle can find him.

But for the old ape to break through their defenses would be as difficult as climbing to heaven.

In this situation, it would be better to let the old ape wield a sledgehammer or a broadsword.

Chen Fan had considered whether or not to let the old ape wield the big sword.

In fact, the old ape had already wielded the broadsword once before, and quite skillfully at it...

Back in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain, when they encountered level 5 Heavenly Fire Ants, the old ape used Chen Fan's knife.

However, instead of using the readily available skills of beast taming, it feels like picking up a sesame seed and losing a watermelon.

Weapons like swords and knives should be kept as spares.

Regardless of whether Old Ape's "Shadow Claw" has evolved, equipping him with a weapon now will definitely make him a terrifying presence in the team!

A powerful Shadow Assassin can't just rely on "Frog Transformation" for support.

……

Chen Fan observed the old ape's claws.

He asked Ye Hao to bring over a metal chair, then said to Old Ape, "Old Ape, unleash 'Shadow Poison Claw' and attack the seat of this chair."

The old ape nodded slightly, then with a jolt of its arms, its claws moved with the speed of a whirlwind, leaving a trail of afterimages as it gripped the metal chair.

Although the chair was made of metal, the seat was relatively thin, and its claws tore five long cracks in it!

Chen Fan let the old ape come closer and looked down at its claws.

When the old ape unleashed the Shadow Poison Claw, some of the star power was concentrated in his arms, while the majority was concentrated in his claws.

Its nails became harder and sharper.

When the old ape unleashed "Shadow Poison Claws," his claws moved with incredible speed, making it difficult for anyone present to fully capture his movements.

In terms of speed, it would be difficult for any beast tamer or beast master of the same level to dodge this move.

Especially when he used the Shadow Curtain to launch a sneak attack.

But if you launch a sneak attack but can't break through the opponent's defenses, that's a bit frustrating.

Chen Fan grabbed the old ape's right paw and examined it...

After casting Shadow Claw, the tips of the old ape's claws turned emerald green, and venom seeped out completely.

It seems that once this move was activated, the "sluggish toxin" surged into its fingertips.

However, while these nails are sharp, they are only relatively sharp compared to ordinary beast tamers.

Compared to Gangzi's teeth, they are actually quite different.

Gangzi's teeth are extremely sharp. Even without using any skills, a simple bite is usually hard for monsters or beasts without defensive skills to withstand.

If Gangzi uses the skill "Crazy Bite", it is possible to break through the Dark Blood Stone Golem's defense.

But it only broke through the defense.

Since Gangzi's teeth don't contain any toxins, even if they break through the Darkblood Stone Golem's defenses, they might not be able to inflict much damage on it.

……

Chen Fan had Chu Xuan summon the Dark Blood Stone Golem.

At Chen Fan's request, the Darkblood Stone Golem removed its armor and then used the skill "Obsidian Armor".

The old ape stepped forward and used "Shadow Poison Claw" on the Darkblood Stone Golem.

"Hiss hiss hiss hiss hiss!"

The obsidian armor was slightly torn.

However, after the old ape's claws broke through the obsidian armor, its strength was almost exhausted, and in the end, it only left five scratches on the dark blood stone golem.

Its claws did not tear through the Darkblood Stone Golem's body.

"..."

The old ape was embarrassed and scratched his head.

Both being level 5 Beast Tamers, in terms of attack power alone, it is indeed much weaker than the Darkblood Stone Golem.

After a moment of silence, Chen Fan began to examine the knuckle dusters, iron fist gloves, and fist buckles.

But they couldn't find a suitable weapon for the old ape.

While brass knuckles and similar items are certainly more powerful than the claws of an old ape, they are still effective weapons.

However, it cannot be perfectly combined with "desensitizing toxin".

Without a suitable weapon, it would probably be necessary to put in some effort to custom-make one for the old ape.

The East Sea City Armory allows for the customization of weapons.

It just takes a little longer and costs a little more.

Seeing Chen Fan frown, Shen Hongxiu couldn't help but ask, "Are you planning to get the old ape a pair of gloves to increase his attack power while also allowing him to use the stun poison from his skills normally?"

Chen Fan nodded, tilted his head back slightly, rested his chin on his hand, and said thoughtfully, "I want to make him a pair of steel gloves, with sharp blades on the fingertips of all ten fingers."

"Each fingertip has a blade, so his hands are like ten daggers..."

"And inside the blade, some fine holes need to be designed... so that when he uses 'Shadow Claw,' the toxins will flow into the blade through the fine holes."

"In this way, when his claws grab the enemy and break through the enemy's defenses, even if he only scratches the skin, he can inject the sluggish toxin into the enemy's body."

"If we had a pair of gloves like this, even the Darkblood Stone Golem might not be able to withstand his attacks."

Just as Chen Fan finished speaking, Chu Xuan handed him a piece of paper.

"Um?"

Chen Fan paused for a moment, then took the paper.

This is a design drawing, and what's drawn on the drawing is the weapon he just mentioned.

"..."

Chen Fan was speechless for a moment, then looked at Chu Xuan: "Did you draw while I was talking?"

Chu Xuan: "Yes."

"..." Chen Fan gasped, "It's a waste of your talent that you're not a painter."

Back in the classroom, when Chu Xuan was researching how to defeat Shen Daodao's level 6 Dragon Blood Lion, he drew each of the tamed beasts on paper with remarkable realism.

Unexpectedly, Chen Fan had only said a few words when he actually drew up the blueprints...

Chen Fan grinned, tapped the blueprints in his hand, and said, "Just what I wanted. I'll send a message to the people at the armory and have them come over and study this weapon with me!"

This weapon not only had strong attack power, but also protected the old ape's claws and wrists.

With this thing, the old ape could even directly parry and block attacks from swords and blades!

Ye Hao was extremely shocked: "Brother Fan, how did you come up with this?"

Chen Fan: "How did you come up with that? Of course, you came up with it using your brain!"

Ye Hao: "Could you help me think of some equipment for my tamed beasts?"

Chen Fan: "Self-reliance leads to abundance, understand? Figure out your own beasts!"

Shen Daodao, standing to the side, looked rather grim and muttered, "Chen Fan, what are you doing? Are you trying to kill everyone else? This Crimson-Eyed Ghost Ape can turn invisible. After turning invisible, it can run behind people and grab them with its claws, deciding the outcome of the battle in one fell swoop?"

Chen Fan nodded: "Yes, that's what I think too."

Shen Daodao: "..."

None of his three tamed beasts had defensive skills.

If Chen Fan's Crimson-Eyed Ape were to wear such a pair of gloves, even his Level 6 Dragon Blood Mad Lion would be crippled by the Slowing Toxin if it were to be hit unexpectedly.

Shen Daodao scratched his head in frustration: "No way, I also want to equip my three tamed beasts with a suit of armor... the kind that's completely airtight!"

"Damn, that's terrifying!"

Shen Hongxiu slapped Shen Daodao on the back of the head: "Don't swear!"

Ye Hao, however, wholeheartedly agreed, saying, "I had actually considered the armor and weapons for beast tamers before."

"But my family only gives me 400,000 Alliance Coins a month for pocket money, plus the 80,000 from school, that's only 480,000. After feeding my Beast Tamers some high-level monster meat, I'm almost broke..."

"This time it's good. With thirty to forty million in hand, we can definitely consider equipping them with powerful armor and weapons!"

Chu Xuan nodded: "Back then, my Darkblood Stone Golem smashed that black-robed man with its hammer, but the man grabbed the hammer and almost crushed it..."

"I'm going to replace it with a higher-grade, harder spiked hammer, and coat the spikes with poison."

Shen Daodao and Ye Hao gasped in shock: "Holy crap, when did you become so insidious and ruthless?"

Chu Xuan said expressionlessly, "One who stays near ink gets stained black."

Chen Fan's face immediately fell: "Who are you insulting?"

Chu Xuan: "Don't misunderstand, I'm just praising you."

Chen Fan: "..."

Shen Daodao narrowed his eyes and said, "Speaking of poison, I remember... that itching powder Chen Fan used that day, it was damn potent!"

"The moment the itching powder was used, the two men in black robes and their two tamed beasts were almost crippled!"

"Only then did we have a chance to turn the tables!"

"I'm going to get some itching powder."

Ye Hao shoved Shen Daodao: "It's us, it has nothing to do with you. You were just watching the show the whole time."

Shen Daodao: "..."

Shen Daodao turned on his "computer" to buy some itching powder.

Ye Hao's lips curled slightly as he said, "Don't bother looking, there's no itching powder on the market anymore."

"What?" Not only Shen Daodao, but even Chen Fan and the others were stunned.

Ye Hao said smugly, "There are sixteen vendors on the market that sell itching powder, and they usually only have two or three kilograms. I bought all their itching powder and antidote the night before last."

"There's no stock left on the market right now."

Everyone: "..."
