The Mighty Mage novel Chapter 128

Chapter 128: Chapter 128: Hell-bent On Attacking?

As the Catalopes charged blindly forward, their senses overwhelmed by the chaos of battle, the team watched with bated breath as they drew closer and closer to the edge of the gorge.

And then, with a sudden burst of speed, the Catalopes surged forward, their momentum carrying them over the edge and into the waiting embrace of the rushing river below.

The team held their breath as they watched the Catalopes disappear from view, swept away by the powerful current of the river.

A moment later, the sounds of battle faded into silence as the last of the Catalopes vanished from sight, leaving behind only the gentle rush of the river and the rustling of the wind through the trees.

"We did it," Gu Jin exclaimed, her voice filled with triumph as she surveyed the scene before her.

Liu Sunhao looked at the agitated Catalopes that were trying to win back in their direction and asked,

"But why are they so hell-bent on attacking us?"

It was right to say that Catalopes would indeed attack humans once they saw them but the aggression showed by the Catalopes before was...too strange.

Zhang Wei carefully observed the Catalopes and said,

"Don’t know. But one thing is clear the Moonshadow forest’s beast’s hostility is unreasonably high."

Gu Jin looked at the Catalopes with a thoughtful look.

"Alright let go. We should not waste our time here, god knows what we will encounter next." Zhang Wei sighed.

After getting into the car, the team moved forward. The trip wasn’t peaceful though. In between they kept on encountering various beasts and some mutated plants.

For Gu Jin, it was one of the best experiences.

Why?

Not only she gained experience but she also copied some of the plant beast’s attacks.

At first, when she fought with them Gu Jin thought that they were too powerful.

Though plant beasts were relatively easy to deal with, it doesn’t mean they are not difficult to deal with.

The animal beast can still be attacked after holding down them down, but the plant beasts are too agile.

If you hold one branch, the other one will rise. It was simply a headache for the entire team to deal with the plant beast.

Some of them even would release poisonous gas.

However, after seeing the plant beast’s various attacks, Gu Jin was impressed and she finally found her teacher.

Who would be better than the plant beast to teach her plant element’s firepower?

Of all the elements, the plant element was the one that was considered the weak after the water element.

But the water element becomes useful once it reaches the advanced rank. As for the plant element, even though it does become powerful gradually, it still can’t compete with the water element.

Hence it won’t be false to say, that the plant element is considered the weakest element.

Gu Jin too had felt the same. When she first awakened her plant element she wasn’t thrilled and cultivated it with a mindset, that if she wanted to awaken the next element she needed to reach the advanced rank.

Even her teacher at school taught her that the plant element shouldn’t be treated as the primary element.

And if they awaken the plant element as their first element, they should hurriedly cultivate, reach the advanced rank to awaken another element, and then treat that element as their primary element.

But as time passed Gu Jin realized that the mutated plant element wasn’t bad.

It was agile, easier to maintain, and consumed very little mana. Gradually Gu Jin felt that the plant elements were good.

Not to mention her plant element even has a healing effect. Combined with the medical knowledge she had, Gu Jin felt that she was carrying a first aid kit.

After further exploring the mutated plant element Gu Jin realized that if she didn’t use the healing spells, and instead inserted her plant element energy, it still was enough to stop blood.

Later Gu Jin’s perspective of the [plant element totally changed when she saw how planet element energy could be used to inserted into pills.

Let’s not talk about the benefits of eating pills with plant energy infused in it, the mere fact that plant energy can be inserted is amazing.

Gu Jin later learned that the integration of element energy into the pills is nearly impossible.
