Chapter 590: Chapter 443: A Brief Visit to [Snail Realm]

"Ah?"

The Kung Fu Snail’s head emerged from its shell, looking up at Li Pu.

With its two feet still out, the scene looked quite bizarre, defying the principles of human mechanics.

[Damn!]

[Pop pop roar!]

[Eat eat eat eat eat eat eat eat eat!]

At this moment, Li Pu’s three summoned beasts had begun clearing out the snail ants in a triangular formation.

With Strawman’s individual combat strength, it was a realm of nobody. A punch or kick could explode these snail ants along with their shells.

The Ugly Little Wolf was continually releasing [Wind Thunder Roar] with its mouth open, sweeping the columns of electric power, containing the force of gale and sound wave attack, to wherever the snail ants were shattered.

But in terms of brawling, Bo Bo took the lead.

After 3 rotations, the blue-glow kangaroos it tossed lasted longer, almost like shadow clones.

Its area was filled with little kangaroos bouncing all over, punching and kicking the snail ants, then exploding in place, turning more snail ants into ashes.

"This..."

Seeing this scene, the Kung Fu Snail remained silent.

Only then did he realize that the strength of these three guys was much higher than what was shown when fighting those few scattered snail ants earlier.

Now it felt like this nest of snail ants wasn’t much of a threat. The only thing to be cautious about was...

"I heard the queen of the snail ants has a very special ability."

"She might use it anytime, be careful."

The Kung Fu Snail emerged from the shell again.

"Special ability?"

meters above ground, Chang Shoushang had already laid down.

Even Tong Qinxin lay in the air under his coaxing, feeling a bit reserved and embarrassed for the first time lying like this openly.

As his words fell, the queen snail ant indeed took action.

[Snail Ant Roar!]

Only seeing it shrink into its shell, leaving those two energy spire-like long tentacles outside.

Subsequently, a resonance seemed to occur between the two tentacles, and a faint, nearly transparent blue energy shield started rapidly expanding outward from the middle.

"We must stop it!"

The Kung Fu Snail saw the situation was unfavorable and wanted to shrink into its shell to rush over.

Whoosh!

However, Li Pu’s speed was faster, turning into a residual image and lunging forward with [Sprint].

Catch the king first to capture the thieves; he understood the principle well.

He was going to interrupt the release.

[Hardening] + [Willpower], this punch even if the opponent is an LV80 beast, also... hmm?

But when the fist truly contacted the snail shell, Li Pu felt very peculiar.

Why say peculiar? Because the snail shell didn’t become harder or softer than expected, yet the force on the fist seemed to have an illusion of being hard to exert.

Crunch! xN

While puzzled by this strange experience, dozens of surrounding snail ants inexplicably exploded.

"Senior, what is this situation?"

Feeling something wrong, Li Pu returned to the Kung Fu Snail’s side.

"Look at that protective shield."

The Kung Fu Snail pointed to the still expanding blue protective shield.

"Have you heard of damage dispersal?"

"All snail ants within that protective shield will collectively bear the damage."

"So, the power of your punch was divided into dozens of parts. Just one part of the force for the queen ant was essentially a harmless attack."

He explained to Li Pu a tactic he had never heard of before.

"There is actually such a skill..."

Li Pu was enlightened after hearing this.

Even if his punch’s power was divided into dozens or even hundreds of units, it wouldn’t pose much of a threat, akin to tickling.

"Then what about the group attack?"

Tong Qinxin from above asked.

Suppose the individual attack power is 100, spread over 100 snail ants, then each snail ant bears only 1 damage.

But if it’s a group attack with a power of 10, attacking these 100 snail ants stops, it’s equivalent to a total damage of 1000. No matter how you average it, it still inflicts 10 damage on each snail ant, without being weakened.

"Of course, that’s the best solution."

The Kung Fu Snail nodded but pointed around: "But look at the coverage area and numbers of this protective shield."

Prompted by him, everyone noticed the previously covering only dozens of snail ants’ shield had expanded to cover all the snail ants.

Ignoring the snail ants gradually crawling out, at least two or three hundred were already on the scene.

"Now this is troublesome."

Chang Shoushang’s first thought naturally fell on Bo Bo.

But according to his understanding, even Bo Bo didn’t possess a group attack method that targets so many targets over such a large area.

"Indeed troublesome."

Li Pu nodded in agreement.

What Chang Shoushang understood was indeed correct.

But he was not without a way to deal with these creatures.

He had attacks with an area large enough.

"Withdraw."

Therefore, Li Pu stepped out using Buoyancy Air Step, grabbed Tong Qinxin in one hand and the Kung Fu Snail in the other, and ran out.

"Huh? What about me?!"

Chang Shoushang was dumbfounded when left behind.

[Roar Bo Roar!]

However, the Ugly Little Wolf followed up by flying up and bit his collar.

Bo Bo bit the Ugly Little Wolf holding Chang Shoushang, swiftly pulled away.

The Angel flew away, and the Shadowflame Demon used Shadow Escape to quickly leave.

For a moment, only the Strawman was surrounded by the snail ants on the scene.
