I Can Hear the Inner Voices of Pet Beasts - Chapter 26
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Ye Fei relied on the wolf pack summoned by the Lunar Direwolf to easily clear all the small monsters along the way to the end of the stage.
From afar, the final boss of this stage could be seen. It was a gigantic gibbon that was over three meters tall.
There were many types of ape-type dire beasts. Their skills, strengths, and weaknesses were all different.
Moreover, many ape-type dire beasts looked very similar to each other. It was difficult to determine the specific species just by observing them.
Especially since they were so far away, it was even more difficult to determine.
Ye Fei planned to let the Wolf Pack go up and check out the situation first. He wanted to see what kind of skills this gibbon had, and at the same time, determine the level of its attack power.
After he had a good idea, he would adjust his tactics according to its weakness. This would be more stable.
After all, Ye Fei was fighting alone now. He did not even have a teammate by his side, so the margin of error was basically zero.
If anything went wrong, he would definitely be eliminated. There was no chance to save him.
Therefore, Ye Fei had to be extra careful.
“Lunar Direwolf, let the two weakest wolves go up and investigate,” Ye Fei ordered.
The levels of the eight wolves in the wolf pack were all different. The two weakest wolves had already become very tired after the battle, and there was not much combat power left in them.
Therefore, Ye Fei planned to use the two of them as cannon fodder.
The Lunar Direwolf immediately ordered the two weakest wolves to go up and attack the gibbon.
To Ye Fei’s surprise, the two wolves only turned their heads to look at the gibbon over there before lying on the ground and continuing to rest.
They had no intention of attacking at all.
They resisted the Lunar Direwolf’s control!
When the Lunar Direwolf was in its own pack, its identity was that of an alpha!
Who would dare to reject its orders?
But now, it was completely being ignored. This was the first time in the Lunar Direwolf’s life that this had happened to it!
It felt very humiliated!
The furious Lunar Direwolf Bent Down and assumed an attacking posture, growling and threatening the two wolves that refused to obey.
The two wolves shrank back and kept retreating, but they still had no intention of obeying the orders at all.
The Lunar Direwolf continued to threaten them, and the two wolves continued to retreat. Even when they were forced to the wall, they only let out desperate whimpers and still refused to attack the gibbon.
Ye Fei heard their thoughts —
“Why should we send ourselves to die… I don’t want to die!”
“That gibbon is obviously very strong. I’m definitely not its match. Don’t even think about sending me to death!”
Only then did Ye Fei understand that the wild wolves summoned by the Lunar Direwolf could only be commanded by it when their own lives were not threatened.
Once the quest was too dangerous, or even if they were directly used as cannon fodder like just now, they would not carry out the order.
Thinking about it, he felt that it made sense. After all, they were not pets that had signed contracts. How could they be willing to risk their lives for him?
After understanding this point, Ye Fei did not insist anymore.
He said to the Lunar Direwolf, “Forget it, don’t force them.”
Although the Lunar Direwolf was unhappy, its master had already spoken. It could only resentfully give up on the idea of teaching the two wild wolves a lesson.
When the two wild wolves saw that the Lunar Direwolf was no longer threatening them, they were clearly much more relaxed.
Ye Fei thought about it and felt that he had a lot of healing mixes anyway, and he could continue to refine them in the future, so he decided to do another experiment.
He took out two bottles of healing potions and threw them in front of the wolves, saying, “Drink this.”
The two wolves’ levels were too low and their intelligence was limited. They could not understand what Ye Fei was saying. They looked at the small bottles in front of them and were very confused. They did not understand what yYe Fei was trying to do.
The Lunar Direwolf could only use Wolf language to translate it for them again.
The two wolves finally understood.
Ye Fei thought that the two wolves might still hesitate. They would only be willing to take the medicine after he proved that the medicine was not poisonous.
But reality proved that Ye Fei was overthinking. The two wolves’ intelligence had not reached that level yet.
They judged that drinking would not directly threaten their lives, so they drank all the healing potions without hesitation.
Thus, Ye Fei came to a new conclusion —
For low-level and relatively low-level summoned objects, as long as it was not an order that directly threatened their lives, they would obey.
Then, looking at it from another perspective, using a more indirect way to send them to their deaths should also be possible.
Theoretically speaking, they could indeed be used as cannon fodder, but one just had to pay attention to the method.
When the two wild wolves had almost recovered, Ye Fei tried to get the Lunar Direwolf to order them to attack the gibbon again.
This time, although the two wild wolves were a little unwilling, they still went forward.
“Wait!”
Just as they were about to approach the gibbon, Ye Fei suddenly got the Lunar Direwolf to call them back.
Then, Ye Fei took out six bottles of healing potions and fed them to the other six wolves in the pack.
When they had all recovered to their best condition, he turned to the Lunar Direwolf and said, “Let them all attack together.”
The Lunar Direwolf let out a long howl, and the six wolves immediately charged at the gibbon without hesitation!
The gibbon felt threatened, and it struggled with both its arms and instantly broke free from the shackles!
When the audience outside the arena saw this scene, they all cried out in surprise.
“Oh my God! It actually broke free without waiting for the shackles to automatically break!”
“Those are shackles made of black iron! It can actually use brute force to break free from them. This is too terrifying!”
“Just how much strength does this gigantic gibbon have?”
Even the commentator outside the arena exclaimed in disbelief.
Some of the audience sighed, “I finally know why the Rookie King was defeated on the eighth floor last year… with such terrifying strength and speed, who could even imagine defeating it?!”
“The boss on the eighth floor is already so terrifying, what about the boss on the ninth floor? Oh my God… I really can’t imagine it!”
Some people even said, “I really hope that Ye Fei can successfully challenge it… I really want to see what the boss on the ninth floor is!”
“God bless Ye Fei, let him pass this stage!”
..
Ye Fei himself did not know that there were so many people outside the trial field praying for him, hoping that he could successfully defeat the gibbon so that he could bring them to see what the boss of the ninth floor looked like.
His attention was now all on the gibbon.
The gibbon grabbed the broken chain and swung its bow left and right vigorously.
The eight wolves were forced to switch from offense to defense. They tried their best to dodge the attacks of the chains.
However, their speed was still not as fast as that of the gigantic gibbon with extremely long arms.
