I, Who Have Been Reborn as a Poison Dragon, Am Being Persecuted by the World - Chapter 15

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Lei Luo’s claw, which had collided with the Indigo Jellyfish’s tentacles, was now dangling in front of him. In the direct confrontation just now, he was at a complete disadvantage. After all, a Level-5 creature was a Level-5 creature. It wasn’t something that his Level-2 Poison Dragon body could withstand.

Fortunately, he had left a way out for himself so that he wouldn’t fall into danger.

However, the provocation just now had completely enraged the Indigo Jellyfish. Its tentacles would shoot up from the bottom of the sea from time to time, or water arrows would erupt.

Lei Luo dodged in the air and did not leave immediately. He wanted to see what effect his poisonous breath would have when all of it entered the Indigo Jellyfish.

Furthermore, the power of a Level-5 creature’s magic was within the scope of his understanding.

As he dodged, Lei Luo calculated the amount of time that had passed.

The Indigo Jellyfish had a certain resistance to poison, and it just so happened that the Merman Race also had an antidote. The two were not too different, but the Indigo Jellyfish had a stronger body, which was one of the advantages of giving up on the development of intelligence.

As time passed, the frequency of the Indigo Jellyfish’s tentacles attacking decreased, and the water arrows became weaker.

Lei Luo’s eyes flashed slightly. After thinking for a while, he turned around and flew into the sky, pretending to leave.

After leaving the range of the Indigo Jellyfish’s vision, Lei Luo entered the sea from afar and secretly turned back.

It didn’t take much time. When Lei Luo returned, he found that the Indigo Jellyfish hadn’t left yet. Instead, it was emitting mysterious sound waves.

“What is this? Why can’t I see the effects of my poison? Is there no effect at all?”

Looking at the energetic Indigo Jellyfish in the distance, Lei Luo felt a little disappointed.

He originally thought that after fusing so many characteristics with his poison breath, his poison breath would be even stronger. However, who would have thought that it would be so ineffective?

After listening to the sound waves for so long, Lei Luo was disappointed and was about to leave when he suddenly froze.

He saw an ordinary sea fish swimming past the Indigo Jellyfish, but the Indigo Jellyfish did not attack the fish. It was very strange.

“Could it be that the effects have been delayed?” Lei Luo’s eyes lit up. Then, he immediately summoned a water ball and threw it far away.

Pop~

The attack power of the water ball was not strong, and it dissipated on the surface of the Indigo Jellyfish’s body. However, the Indigo Jellyfish did not react at all.

Upon seeing this, Lei Luo probed as he approached the Indigo Jellyfish to prevent a sneak attack.

It was only when Lei Luo got closer that he realized that there were faint red and green stripes spreading on the surface of the Indigo Jellyfish. That was the sign of his poisonous breath entering its body.

Drops of blue-green liquid dripped from the Indigo Jellyfish’s tentacles. The poison in its body was being contained.

“My poison can’t poison a Level-5 creature to death. Powerful creatures can even expel my poison and might even have the ability to retaliate.”

“The Indigo Jellyfish is a sea beast and is different from the Merman Race. This result can be referenced to, but not copied and applied to the Merman Race.”

“At least this Indigo Jellyfish doesn’t have any helpers. I can only use my poisonous breath five times a day. If I use it too much, it will affect my throat. However, I only achieved these results after using my poisonous breath three times.”

“The sea is more suitable for the use of my poisonous breath. If the Merman Race comes ashore to attack, my poisonous breath cannot be used easily.”

“I can test out the resistance of a Level-4 creature instead.”

Lei Luo did not approach the Indigo Jellyfish. Instead, he analyzed the outcome of the battle.

He spat his poisonous breath on the shore and could only rely on his head to control the direction where his poisonous breath spread. He couldn’t contaminate the area first and completely surround his enemy to prevent his enemy from escaping, unlike what he did at the bottom of the sea.

However, Lei Luo also had an advantage on the shore. The Merman Race were sea creatures after all, so their abilities would definitely be restricted once they got ashore.

Seeing that the speed at which the Indigo Jellyfish expelled the poison from its body had increased, Lei Luo was trying to see if he could kill it. After all, it was a Level-5 creature, and it definitely had enough energy in its body to nourish him.

However, before Lei Luo even started, he saw more than ten Indigo Jellyfish swimming over from afar.

From the looks of it, most of the Indigo Jellyfish were around the same size as the one in front of him. Clearly, they were also at Level-5.

“F*ck, so the sound wave just now was to summon its companions. I knew it. He was waiting for help.”

Lei Luo cursed and quickly floated to the surface of the sea.

What a joke. One of his claws was injured, and it would be difficult for him to kill that Indigo Jellyfish in a short period of time. Thus, it would be troublesome if the other Indigo Jellyfish followed him closely.

Not long after he left, the tentacles of the Indigo Jellyfish, which had been tested by Lei Luo but showed no reaction, shook, as if it was regretful that Lei Luo did not attack.

Although it was poisoned, it did not lose its ability to retaliate.

Lei Luo did not know what was happening under the water. He just acted in his usual cautious style.

He would not take unnecessary risks.

He needed time to advance now, but there was no need to risk his life for this.

If he really couldn’t defeat the Merman Race, he would flee first and cultivate in peace. After he was strong enough to defeat them, he would come back to find trouble with the Merman Race. Then, he would ask them for information about his parents.

After leaving this dangerous area, Lei Luo went to the area where the Level-3 sea beasts lived and caught two Level-3 starfish before returning to the island.

After finishing the grilled fish feast, Lei Luo lay down to rest while waiting for the wound on his claw to heal.

At the same time, the priest of the Merman Race, who had been busy the entire night, appeared outside his house in exhaustion.

Meanwhile, Shardin and Sharbao, who had been instructed to come last night, had been waiting for a long time.

“Lord Priest.”

When they saw the priest appear, they quickly greeted him.

The merman priest nodded in agreement and said, “This place isn’t suitable for publicizing such information. Come in and let’s talk. I have something for you guys to do.”

Shardin and Sharbao looked at each other. Then, they curiously followed the priest in.

Half an hour later, the two of them walked out excitedly, each with a staff with their hands. They were obviously different from the other mermen’s pitchforks, and their magic waves were more active.

They didn’t have much contact with the other clansmen. Instead, they headed straight for the sea area where Gehr was previously poisoned.

The priest of the Merman Race had explained the situation. Thus, both of them knew that the Merman Race was planning to carry out a dragon-slaying plan.

Once it was completed, not only would they obtain prestige, but the Poison Dragon’s value alone was enough to strengthen the Merman Race to a higher level.

The participating clansmen would also be engraved with the light of glory, illuminating the clan’s history.

Furthermore, they were now participating in this plan!

Shardin’s gaze was firm. “No matter what the price is, we must complete the mission.”

Meanwhile, Sharbao smiled and said, “Don’t worry. Most of the information has already been discovered. We’ll head there as scouts and retreat if we encounter that Poison Dragon. With the Lord Priest’s staff, we’ll definitely be able to return safely.”

“Slaying a dragon? It seems like not even the strongest human has accomplished much in this aspect.”

“No, no. There was a great battle two years ago. Fortunately, it didn’t affect our race. It’s said that a Poison Dragon was killed at that time.”

“Didn’t the rumors say that the Poison Dragon escaped into the abyss rift, and that no one knows if it’s dead or alive?”

“Who knows? With the cunningness of humans, they might have used a smokescreen to confuse us. They might secretly be dividing the wealth.”

“True, but our Merman Race is about to be on par with them to a certain extent.”

The two mermen were extremely confident.

Although they had yet to see the young Poison Dragon that the merman priest had mentioned, they believed that they could definitely kill it..
