Chen Shu's assessment was correct; even a Gold-tier Beast Tamer would be rendered utterly miserable after consuming it.
The Guangyi Bird Lord had to release its strain every five minutes, as the pain was unbearable otherwise.
After two hours, the once majestic Guangyi Bird was listless and appeared utterly drained. Although its combat strength was not significantly affected, it was deeply humiliated, its lordly dignity completely gone.
Finally, they returned to their territory.
On a hill, the Guangyi Bird flock roosted at the summit, gazing at the bright moonlight, listening to the crackling sounds from their Lord below, and were all utterly bewildered.
Waves of foul odors reached them, leaving the multitude of Guangyi Birds resentful but silent.
In the distance, Chen Shu and the other two, covering their noses and mouths, followed the trail.
Xu Xingxing exclaimed, "Chen Pi, you actually used laxatives? And how are they so potent?"
"A little something, a little something," Chen Shu said with pride, not expecting that his randomly concocted laxative would be effective against a Black Iron-tier Lord. He regretted it wasn't a system-rewarded laxative, which could have surely killed the Black Iron Lord! However, his own concoction was decent; at least the cost was cheap, and it should weaken the opponent's strength a bit. As for the side effects, they only slightly impacted the ecological environment of another dimension.
"Damn it, this guy didn't use poison, but laxatives?" Du Ming, watching from afar, was already stunned, not expecting things to be so absurd.
The three no longer needed the butterfly-moth to guide them; they could find the Guangyi Bird's territory simply by following the scent.
"Holy crap, it's still shitting!" Chen Shu spotted the Guangyi Bird Lord's location at a glance. It was crouched below the hill, bathed in moonlight, its eyes filled with melancholy and despair. How could it face its own kin in such a state?
The Mutant Thunder Bird concealed its aura and slowly approached to within a few hundred meters of the Guangyi Bird Lord. The Guangyi Bird flock on the hill were covering their noses and mouths, appearing unable to bear it, completely oblivious to the arrival of the three.
"I'll go first!" Chen Shu's eyes gleamed, and he instructed the other two to stay put. He crawled forward alone, using the grass for cover. Although his body had been strengthened, it was still far inferior to that of a fierce beast, and he wouldn't alert the target. Moreover, the Guangyi Bird Lord was currently focused on its predicament and had no time to pay attention to its surroundings.
"Damn, it's really stinky!" Chen Shu took out a torn urea bag from his pack, fashioned it into a mask, and pulled it over his head. The distance between them gradually closed.
"Almost there!" Chen Shu's eyes narrowed. Above the Guangyi Bird Lord, space ripped open, and a large golden piece of feces instantly appeared, resolutely descending towards the ground!
"Caw!" The Guangyi Bird Lord let out a long cry, feeling an immense relief. It completely failed to notice the shadow descending upon it.
"Boom!" In an instant, the slime landed, pinning it down! The Guangyi Bird Lord struggled but couldn't shake off the massive object.
"How simple!" Chen Shu stood up gracefully, clapping his hands. He hadn't expected the opponent's vigilance to be so low; it was as if its mind had been numbed by the act of defecation!
Xu Xingxing and the other received the signal, and the Mutant Thunder Bird swiftly approached the Guangyi Bird Lord.
"Let's take off first!" There were over a thousand Guangyi Birds on the hill; if not careful, they could be instantly killed. The three boarded the Mutant Thunder Bird, leaving only a golden slime on the ground.
"Awooo!" The husky on the bird's back yelped, its eyes glowing with skill light.
"Boom, boom, boom!" Five fireballs accurately struck the Guangyi Bird Lord's head. Blood splattered, directly wounding it. At the same time, the slime continued to wiggle its backside.
"Caw!" The Guangyi Bird Lord writhed in pain, simultaneously realizing the danger and immediately calling for backup. Its skills and talents were sealed, and relying on its own strength, it was impossible to dislodge the massive entity on its back.
The thousand Guangyi Birds on the hill heard their Lord's distress call. Instantly, a thousand pairs of wings unfurled, emitting a dreamlike radiance!
"Don't fight them head-on!" Chen Shu's eyes were solemn. A thousand Guangyi Birds unleashing their skills could potentially kill even the husky.
The Guangyi Bird flock cast a deep glance at the three but did not attack. Instead, they approached their Lord. Upon seeing the giant slime, the flock began to squawk incessantly. In an instant, their wings flashed with skill light, and golden blades shot out like sharp edges, the innate skill [Wing Slash]!
"Bang!" Several golden lights struck, but they caused no damage, not even leaving a trace.
"Awooo!" The Guangyi Bird Lord was severely injured but could at least command. It immediately ordered its flock into action. In an instant, the thousand Guangyi Birds unleashed their innate skill, all targeting a single part of the slime.
"This beast is a bit clever," Chen Shu mused, stroking his chin. Although the slime had pinned its Lord, it was also immobilized, becoming a helpless target. The slime immediately used its skill [Dream Killer], drastically increasing its defense and elemental resistance.
"Boom, boom, boom!" Countless golden lights assailed it, the blinding radiance unbearable to look at.
"Gurgle!" The slime fell into a state of slumber, no longer perceiving pain, but a wound about half a meter wide appeared on its body, from which colorless blood continuously flowed. Hundreds, even thousands, of [Wing Slash] attacks had breached its defenses!
"Let's finish this quickly!" Although the slime was injured, its immense vitality allowed it to withstand the onslaught for the time being. The difficulty in hunting Lord-tier fierce beasts lay in two aspects: first, their inherent combat power, and second, the equally troublesome flock that followed them.
The husky's mouth condensed another large ice ball.
"Splat!" The ice ball shattered, and the Guangyi Bird Lord also suffered trauma. Moments later, the husky spat out five fireballs consecutively, directly obliterating its head!
Another Lord had met its demise here! At this moment, the Guangyi Birds' [Wing Slash] was still on cooldown, unable to unleash a second round of attacks.
"Caw!" With the Lord dead, the flock panicked, eventually scattering.
Xie Sunan, holding a butcher's knife, looked at the dead Guangyi Bird Lord. He said with disgust, "Damn, Chen Pi, this is a bit too disgusting." Bird droppings were scattered all around the Guangyi Bird, making it quite an unsightly scene.
"To easily deal with a Lord, one must naturally pay a price," Chen Shu shrugged and said. If not for the laxative's effect, it would not have been so easy for the three to kill the Lord amidst the flock. The Guangyi Bird's innate skill was a ranged elemental attack, far more powerful than that of a burrowing beast, and could even threaten the slime's life. Its [Kinetic Rebound] was ineffective, making it impossible to deal with thousands of ordinary-tier flying fierce beasts.
Xie Sunan extracted the Lord's materials and the Beast Taming Pearl and asked, "Do you still want the meat?"
"Want my ass!" Chen Shu waved his hand. He estimated that the meat itself now contained laxative components, and he had no desire to transform into a "spraying warrior."
At this moment, the three had no idea how detrimental the Guangyi Bird Lord's corpse would be to the "Blazing Sun Hill." Chen Shu stroked the husky's head and asked, "Er Ha, do you want some?"
"Awoo, awoo!" The husky looked disgusted, constantly pawing at the grass.
"See? Even dogs won't eat this thing!"
Husky: ???
