Chapter 127: Space Type Elemental Beast

Nox gasped in shock at what he saw, his heart thudding loudly against his chest, as if it would jump out at any moment. His eyes gleamed with an incredulous light. He wasn’t scared; on the contrary, he was astonished by what was behind him.

The island was a massive sandy surface with several rocks of varied sizes—some roughly the size of a truck back on Earth, while others were like mini hills. The sun’s rays beat down on these rocks, causing them to shimmer slightly. Behind the rocks, Nox could see towering trees that stretched into the sky like sentinel monuments.

However, the rocks were not Nox’s focus. Instead, it was what was lounging on the rocks, bathing in the sun with its eye closed and a peaceful expression on its face.

The strange yellow creature had a translucent, gelatinous body with a network of glowing, blue-green veins. Its tentacles were long, slender, and covered in sparkling, star-like suckers that could create miniature wormholes. Looking at it, Nox noticed that the beast seemed smilliar to jellyfish/octopus type beast

Yes, it was a beast.

But not just any beast… it was…

“An Elemental Beast!” Nox’s body was literally trembling, his breath quickening; he held back the urge to shout those words, afraid that the beast would be startled awake from its slumber. Nobody liked being jolted out of their sleep, and the last thing he wanted was for this beast to go on a rampage.

Nox had already witnessed the strength of an Elemental Beast firsthand, so he acted with caution. He knew this was an elemental creature because of the bluish screen that gleamed in his retina.

“Yes, this one is low level! It’s just a wildin’!” Nox did a silent punch to the air, his eyes gleaming with excitement. He calmed his rapid breathing and assessed the situation with a bit of clarity flashing in his eyes.

“The system screen of this beast is a bit different from the others,” Nox pointed out. For one, the beast didn’t have any stats like the Magical Beasts. It showed only the beast’s skills and available evolution path, which, by the way, didn’t look impossible to fulfill like the Magical Beasts.

It also had a progression bar, which could be filled up if Nox continued to feed it Beast Cores.

Afterward, Nox used Beast Sense on the elemental beast, and its weaknesses and strengths cascaded down Nox’s view.

“Great!” Nox’s first instinct wasn’t to kill the beast. No, that would be a pure waste with all these powerful skills. Instead, he decided he’d tame it. Though Nox didn’t know the success rate of his taming attempt since it wasn’t depicted on his screen, he decided to take a leap of faith.

Besides, he noticed from Thirteen that it was much easier to tame baby creatures, and this beast could be identified in that category.

“Hmmm, let’s see,” Nox muttered, slowly making his way behind the beast. The creature was two meters in height, and its tentacles seemed even longer.

“I doubt that an ice Elemental Beast would let me tame it easily, so I can’t miss this chance,” Nox thought as he placed his hand on the beast, feeling its soft, jelly-like flesh.

Suddenly, a huge mountain of water surged up, revealing a massive shark-like beast over four meters in length, with scales running down its back. The beast seemed to levitate in the air for a bit as its red eyes glared at Nox with ravenous glints… Then it fell back into the water, causing a huge wave to splash out in all directions.

As the water splashed on him, Nox balled his fists in anger as his eyes darted between the elemental beast and the shark; as expected, a moment later, the elemental beast’s single closed eye twitched, causing Nox’s forehead to crease with anxiety.

If the beast woke up, it would definitely be much harder for him to tame it, but this shark just had to ruin it all! As he cursed the beast, Nox noticed that the elemental beast’s eyelid had stopped twitching, and its breathing was steady once more.

“It’s gone back to sleep.” Nox exhaled in relief as he brought his hand back to continue the process once more.

Then the shark leaped out of the waters again, this time seeming to have increased its power, and directly landed on the ground just a few meters from Nox and the elemental beast.

‘Curse you!’

Nox’s eyelid twitched as he stared at the shark that was squirming on the sandy ground, approaching the now-awake elemental beast. The elemental beast’s eyes were a sight to behold—mesmerizing red with a black circle in the middle. Those eyes at first seemed lost and confused.

But as soon as the beast’s glare fell on the shark that was dragging itself through the ground, its razor-sharp teeth menacingly revealed, the elemental beast flinched back, frightened.

When Nox saw this scene, he recalled the elemental beast’s weakness!

“Yes! They’re afraid of sharks!” he exclaimed as he looked at the shark, and sure enough, the peaceful calm had changed to frightened tension. Despite its size, the elemental beast was still just a child, so this fear was even more palpable.

“Damn it, this shark will scare away my beast!” Annoyed, Nox raised his hand and pointed a finger at the shark that was at the Intermediate tier.

‘Stay still. I’ll protect you.’ Nox telepathically relayed to the elemental beast, whose eyes flashed with confusion. How was it hearing a voice in its head? The beast looked around but couldn’t find anyone, then its gaze narrowed at the squishy human who offered a reassuring smile at it.

That smile. The elemental beast was perplexed. Why did it bring so much warmth? Why did it feel secure in this human’s presence? The elemental beast had never met a human before, but its brethren had and had said they were a really wicked species.

So why did this one feel so different?
