两男一女的双龙挺进

Nox planned to use Shadow Oblivion. Creatures like beasts had emotions, much like humans. He needed to show Astralux that he could be relied upon for protection. If he faltered now, the elemtal beast would never accept him as its master.

"How convit for the natural emy of Astralux to show up now," Nox thought, the smile on his face widing. "The emy of my frid is my emy... now die!"

As he screamed these words, the dark ergy on his fingers swelled, growing larger and more volatile. The black ergy ball pulsed wildly, resembling a miniature sun, radiating sizzling heat that scorched parts of the sandy island, turning patches of it into an ash desert.

The shark\'s instincts screamed at it to flee, and it attempted to retreat to the water, hoping to escape. But just as it squirmed toward safety, the massive dark ergy swallowed it whole. A cataclysmic bang echoed across the island, and the shark exploded into fragmts. Parts of its body fell into the dark sea, while other pieces lay scattered across the island.

[MP: 50/60]

Nox\'s gaze swept over the surings. "Now, where\'s that beast core?" he muttered, walking across the sandy surface of the island.

Before long, his eyes caught a gleam of light reflecting off something partially buried in the sand. The sunlight caused the object to shimmer.

"Found it." Nox picked it up, finding a blue intermediate-tier beast core.

"[Give me!]" [Panda!]

Fluffington\'s and Panda\'s voices boomed like a loudspeaker in Nox\'s head, and he was forced to cover his ears for a split second. But that didn\'t help, as the beasts kept shouting in his mind.

Left with no choice, Nox bellowed at them, his voice dripping with annoyance. "Would you two keep quiet!"

His shout worked, and the two beasts immediately fell silt. Satisfied, Nox telepathically added, "This beast core is not for either of you."

As soon as he said those words, Nox felt sadness from his beasts. He could ev subconsciously see Thirte looking at him with sad eyes. That might have worked at other times, but right now Nox had an ev more important use for the beast cores.

He couldn\'t allow his power-hungry pets to influce his decision.

Nox glanced at Astralux, which was staring at the body fragmts, its ruby eyes shining in disbelief. Did the human just deal with its mortal emy in one attack? The beast\'s mind became chaotic.

On one hand, it was pleased that the annoying shark was no more, but on the other hand, it was frighted that the human would turn against it.

As it pondered possible scarios, the elemtal beast noticed something. The human was speaking to it again, ev offering something in his hand.

Its eyes fell on the shiny blue beast core in Nox\'s hands, a brief gleam of interest flickering through its single eye.

"Don\'t be shy, you can have it." Nox didn\'t hesitate to use the beast\'s weakness as he offered another charming smile that would make several hearts tremble.

Astralux slowly turned shades of pink; the elemtal beast also had inherited traits. It changes color depding on its emotions. Pink meant it was flushed, and why was it flushed? Because Astralux was female. Nox\'s smile beckoned it forward, and it stretched its pink ttacles, wrapping a the blue crystal and snatching it. Th it brought it close to its mouth and devoured it.

[Progress: 00%/0%]

Fluffington and Thirte felt heartbrok as they saw the core vanish into Astralux\'s mouth, but they could do nothing—Nox had temporarily severed their connection. His focus was now solely on Astralux.

The beast stared at Nox with a hopeful, eager expression, as if asking for more cores. Initially, she had kept her distance, still not fully trusting him, but now, after his gesture of gerosity, their bond had strgthed.

"Such a gullible creature," Nox chuckled, watching the elemtal beast\'s eagerness. Luckily, he had a few more beast cores stashed in his invtory. He pulled another one out and fed it to Astralux.

After consuming the second core, Astralux\'s body began to shrink. It continued shrinking until it was slightly larger than a soccer ball. Hovering before Nox, she stared at him with playful, mischievous eyes.

Astralux, now hovering before Nox, stared at him, its beautiful eyes flashing with mischievousness and eagerness to play.

At first, Nox was confused and alarmed. There was no skill such as shrinking in Astralux\'s profile.

Th he remembered something like this writt in his father\'s book.

"Well, it has be four years since I last read that book; it\'s only natural for me to forget some things."

According to the book, elemtal beasts had two primary appearances: combat mode and non-combat appearance. Wh they were in their non-combat appearance, they were much weaker and could easily be killed.

"For it to take its non-combat form, it could only mean one thing." Nox thought in excitemt as he used Beast Sse on Astralux again, and this time her currt state showed playful and comfortable.

"It trusts me!" Nox exclaimed as the beast hovered a him, as if taking a good look at him. Th it stopped before Nox and gtly rubbed its head against Nox\'s cheek.

Nox stroked the creature\'s head and proceeded to tame the elemtal beast. He had come into this dimsion without much thought, just to level his Beast Sse and analyze, however, he found a gold mine!
