Chapter 228: Return (1)
—Plop! Plop-plop!
As planned, Cho dropped the two into the large water tank I had once prepared for Hwayang. The tank's former resident, a regular wae-wae-eo giant salamander, had already been released back into the lake.
And there was a reason for that.
There was only one of these large tanks available. And when given the choice between a normal giant salamander and an Electric Giant Salamander, the choice was obvious.
Sure, giant salamanders were rare in my old world— But here in the Sect Grounds, they were so common you could eat them if you wanted. I could always find another regular one.
But these—these were SSS-tier electric salamanders, even if not quite EX-rank.
The capture difficulty alone is in another league.
So, when Cho tossed the two Ho-ye into the now-empty tank, the Electro Giant Salamanders immediately poked their heads out of the water and started screaming.
They’d just been kidnapped by a terrifying spirit beast, after all. Anyone would be terrified and confused. And on top of that, they were now surrounded by a bunch of unfamiliar, intimidating creatures.
—WAEAAAAH!
—WAEAAK!
I walked over with a smile, trying to calm them down.
