Chapter 975: Chapter 976: Mount _1

“It looks like to take over this castle, I must defeat these beasts first,” Song Jian gripped his Sky-breaking Sword tightly and walked towards the group of beasts;

As the beasts saw Song Jian approaching, they instantly became restless, but a roar from the mutant unicorn settled them down. Unlike the previous creatures that ran off upon sensing Song Jian’s formidable strength, these beasts remained in place.

“So they can suppress their instinctual fear simply because they have a leader?” Song Jian thought to himself, eyes locked on the mutant unicorn at the front.

As long as he defeated the unicorn, without its control, the beast army behind it would likely disintegrate, much like the other animals.

When Song Jian drew near, the mutant unicorn let out a low growl, and the horn on its forehead suddenly burst forth with lightning-like brilliance. The crackling sound echoed as lightning danced in the air;

Crack~

A loud blast echoed as finger-thick lightning shot out from the horn, leaving a distorted trail through the air and heading straight for Song Jian;

Song Jian instinctively tried to dodge, but the lightning was too fast. Before he could even move, the lightning released by the unicorn struck his chest;

With a “boom”, Song Jian couldn’t help but stumble backward two steps, feeling as if a heavy hammer had smashed into his chest, with plasma coursing over his body. To his surprise, he lost control over his body, falling into a paralyzed state;

However, this state lasted for a very short time, less than a second, before his innate skill “Thick Skin” immediately granted him immunity;

“Over eighteen hundred damage, quite powerful. If it were someone else, this hit could have caused grave injuries!” Song Jian checked his lost Vitality Points and thought to himself;

Although it was only an elite beast, its attack power was comparable to that of a lord-level BOSS in the gaming world. Moreover, its attack speed was extremely fast, and even Song Jian couldn’t dodge it; he had to endure the hit.

After a moment of hesitation, Song Jian executed the Mysterious Moonlight Sword and charged at the unicorn. Using the Thousand Swords Art might leave not even a corpse of the unicorn and the beasts behind it, but Song Jian wanted to tame the mutant unicorn to become his mount in the Assessment World, so he couldn’t just kill it outright;

Song Jian transformed into a flow of light, stabbing towards the unicorn. The speed of the flow of light was slightly slower than the electric attack the unicorn had released but the difference was minimal. The unicorn’s eyes revealed a look of shock. As it prepared to retreat, it was harshly cleaved by the Sky-breaking Sword, suddenly losing control of its body;

Feeling its body slowly floating upward, the unicorn made a terrified shriek. Although the army of beasts behind it feared, they still roared and charged at Song Jian;

System: Due to your display of military might, the morale of the beast army led by the mutant unicorn has dropped by 2 points, and their attack power decreased by 20%;

Swipe, swipe, swipe~

Multiple jets of blood shot out from the unicorn’s body, its vitality immediately waned. A massive black bear, standing over two meters tall, swung its paws at Song Jian, while several wolves circled to his back and launched an assault;

The Sky-breaking Sword slashed upwards from below, cleanly bifurcating a black bear, and with a twist of his waist, a sweep of the swordlight silenced the growling wolves. Their bodies, like ripped sacks, were thrown far into the distance;

These beasts simply couldn’t withstand Song Jian’s attacks, and in a blink, seven or eight of them were slain;

However, there were too many beasts, and Song Jian still took a couple of heavy hits. A boar viciously rammed into his thigh, and two wolves bit down on his left leg;

Above Song Jian’s head floated numbers indicating double-digit damage. These beasts were akin to level forty or fifty regular monsters, and since their attack power was now reduced by 20%, they hardly inflicted any significant damage on Song Jian. If not for their numbers, he could almost have ignored their assaults.

The mutant unicorn now stood behind the army of beasts, looking at Song Jian with a hint of fear in its eyes. The earlier Mysterious Moonlight Sword had caused it to lose over ten thousand Vitality Points, presenting a real threat of death. Seeing Song Jian entangled by the beast army, the notion of fleeing surfaced in the mutant unicorn’s mind;

He took two steps back, the mutated unicorn unfolded its black wings, ready to escape towards the castle. Song Jian, though battling the wild beast army, had kept his attention on the mutated unicorn. Seeing it attempting to flee, he immediately sprang into action;

War shackles!

Song Jian released a skill from his “Warlord’s Armor” towards the mutated unicorn. Suddenly a shackle made of black spiritual light shot towards the unicorn, firmly locking its limbs and even the wings on its back got entangled by countless threads of black light, rendering it completely immobile.

Neigh~

The unicorn let out a terrified whinny, standing frozen in place, unable to move. Song Jian’s mind shifted, and he cast Sword Shadow Clone. The clone dealt with the normal wild beast attacks around him while his body charged towards the mutated unicorn;

The unicorn had a total of less than thirty thousand Vitality Points, which had now dropped to less than half. Song Jian controlled his strength as he hacked at it with his sword, one strike after another. In fifteen seconds, Song Jian had reduced the unicorn’s Vitality Points to below 10 percent, less than three thousand points. The duration of the war shackles skill came to an end, and Song Jian also sheathed his Sky-breaking Sword, starting to pummel it with his fists;

Whoosh whoosh~

The unicorn flapped its black wings, stirring up gusts of wind, while the horn on its head began to emit flashes of lightning, striking at Song Jian;

Even with its health dwindling, the unicorn still hadn’t given up attacking. This irritated Song Jian, who thought if he hadn’t wanted to subdue it as his mount, he would probably have killed it by now;

Sensing the killing intent emanating from Song Jian, the mutated unicorn trembled slightly, gave up attacking, and began to fly into the sky with a flapping of its wings;

“Think you can fly?” Song Jian snorted coldly, as Flame Light Wings emerged on his back. He shot through the air like lightning, chasing down the unicorn and mounting it swiftly, grabbing its mane with his left hand while his right fist hammered down on its head;

Thump, thump, thump~

Even bare-handed, he was not without damage. Soon, the unicorn’s Vitality Points were reduced to below one thousand. Song Jian hesitated for a moment, knowing that if he continued to attack, he might kill it.

“Submit or die?” Song Jian holding the unicorn’s head, roared in a low voice;

The body of the unicorn trembled, and a reluctant look appeared in its eyes. Song Jian waited for a moment, and seeing that it still hadn’t made a choice, he snorted coldly, and directly summoned the Sky-breaking Sword, thrusting it towards the unicorn’s head;

Just at that moment, the system prompt rang out.

System: The mutated unicorn, coerced by your use of force, submits to you, and you can transform it into your mount;

System: Lords who possess mounts can enhance the attributes of the armies they lead;

System: After subduing as a mount, it can only be used in the Assessment World. After leaving the Assessment World, the mount will regain its freedom;

Subdue!

A flash of golden light, and the mutated unicorn became submissive, gently carrying Song Jian towards the castle gates.
