It was really hiding in a tree.
The Leaf-eared Cat revealed itself on a tree in the battlefield.
At that moment, Giles, who was looking up slightly, confirmed his previous speculations.
Just like the spectators in the spectator stand, Giles did not discover the hidden figure of the Leaf-eared Cat in the bushes where it had landed.
However, after he casually glanced at the surrounding bushes, he realized that there were no obvious traces in the shrubs.
The patch of shrubbery that the Leaf-eared Cat had landed into was much more messy.
Hence, Giles made a speculation right then.
Not only did the Leaf-eared Cat activate its innate skill \'Cloak of Nature\' to hide itself when it fell into the bushes, but it also swiftly climbed onto a nearby tree with the help of the rustling sound of leaves.
That was why he had the Metal-feathered Eagle stop its pursuit and begin the search.
He even specially reminded the Metal-feathered Eagle to fly higher so as to prevent it from being ambushed by the Leaf-eared Cat hiding in the forest.
Annie and the Green-eared Cat have improved greatly!
Recalling Annie\'s reaction and commands, as well as the reaction and actions of the Leaf-eared Cat, Giles, who had put himself in the shoes of the "Gym Leader", couldn\'t help but sigh.
If she was also facing the fierce attack of the Metal-feathered Eagle that suddenly counterattacked, the Annie from last month definitely wouldn\'t be as fast and decisive as the current Annie when reacting and giving commands.
Furthermore, the Leaf-eared Cat might even lose the ability to continue fighting under the ferocious attacks of the Metal-feathered Eagle.
After the Leaf-eared Cat revealed its body, its entire body emitted a faint green glow.
Seeing this, Giles immediately determined that the Leaf-eared Cat was using the plant-type recovery skill, \'Sunbathe\'.
However, Giles wasn\'t alarmed by this extremely threatening skill. He was just surprised.
Hmm? I didn\'t expect Annie\'s Green-tailed Cat to learn the skill \'Sunbathe\' after evolving into a Leaf-eared Cat.
If I don\'t get the Metal-feathered Eagle to stop the Leaf-eared Cat as soon as possible, the Leaf-eared Cat will be able to slowly restore the portion of its spiritual energy and physical strength that it used up previously.
It seems like Annie is planning to use this method to force me to let the Metal-feathered Eagle attack the Leaf-eared Cat.
After realizing Annie\'s motive for getting the Leaf-eared Cat to do this, Giles quickly thought of a solution.
The fastest way to deal with this situation is to have the Metal-feathered Eagle continuously shoot \'Feather Arrows\' at the Leaf-eared Cat who is standing on the tree branch.
However, after the \'Sunbathe\' skill is activated, it is merely unable to use other skills. It is not that it is impossible for it to do anything.
Moreover, based on the performance of Annie and the Leaf-eared Cat, Annie could give the command in a timely manner when the Metal-feathered Eagle suddenly retaliated by shooting out the \'Feather Arrows\'. The Leaf-eared Cat could also dodge quickly.
This means that Annie and the Leaf-eared Cat have been guarding against the \'Feather Arrows\' of the Metal-feathered Eagle.
Therefore, under such circumstances, even if I get the Metal-feathered Eagle to shoot \'Feather Arrows\' at the Leaf-eared Cat, it will still be able to dodge them easily.
Annie, who is always on guard against \'Feather Arrows\', clearly knows this as well. Therefore, she has another motive for getting the Leaf-eared Cat to activate \'Sunbathe\'.
That is to let the Metal-feathered Eagle lower its flying height and fly into the forest to fight the Leaf-eared Cat in close combat.
In that case, she wouldn\'t have to let the Leaf-eared Cat deplete its spiritual energy and physical strength to launch an attack like before in order to lure the Metal-feathered Eagle from the air into the forest.
Furthermore, even if I let the Metal-feathered Eagle fly as high as before, it still won\'t attack the Leaf-eared Cat.
By relying on \'Sunbathe\' to constantly restore its spiritual energy and physical strength, the Leaf-eared Cat can also deplete the Metal-feathered Eagle\'s spiritual energy and physical strength, which cannot be restored, through a drawn-out battle.
At the thought of this, Giles subconsciously sighed in his heart.
Aye, Annie\'s idea is actually wonderful, and the tactic she devised is almost perfect.
But what she didn\'t know is that my Metal-Feathered Eagle can fight a drawn-out battle even without healing abilities.
In the past two weeks of training, I especially trained the Metal-feathered Eagle\'s endurance of the.
Based on the current stamina of the Metal-feathered Eagle, it will definitely not lose to the Gold-rank, three-star Leaf-eared Cat.
As for the spiritual energy depletion…
Giles, who had his head slightly raised, shifted his gaze from the Leaf-eared Cat to the Metal-feathered Eagle that was circling above the arena.
"Metal-feathered Eagle, can you absorb the beast cores\' spiritual energy from the vine belt right now?"
The Metal-feathered Eagle quickly replied to Giles through spiritual communication, "No problem at all! Giles, this is just as you said previously!"
"Compared to my usual training, this battle can help me absorb spiritual energy more quickly!"
After receiving the reply from the Metal-feathered Eagle, Giles nodded slightly.
Then, through spiritual communication, he gave the Metal-feathered Eagle the following instructions, "Metal-feathered Eagle, as you can see, the Leaf-eared Cat is currently hiding on that tree to restore its spiritual energy and physical strength."
"It\'s doing that so that you will lower your flying height and fly into the forest to fight it in close combat."
"In that case, let\'s fulfill its wish!"
"Metal-feathered Eagle, next, shoot \'Feather Arrows\' while reducing your flying height and chasing after the Leaf-eared Cat."
"But you have to be on guard against any counterattacks from the Leaf-eared Cat!"
At the mention of the possibility of the Leaf-eared Cat retaliating, Giles began to remind the Metal-feathered Eagle to pay attention to some of the Leaf-eared Cat\'s skills.
"Based on my understanding of the Leaf-eared Cat, when it counterattacks, it will probably use \'Wood Spear Thrust\' and \'Vine Whips\'."
"As for \'Vine Whips\', you\'ve already seen it. Your eagle claws, which have been enhanced by your innate skill, \'Metalize\', can easily cut off those vines."
"However, you have to be especially careful about the \'Wood Spear Thrust\' skill. Also, you have to be alert at all times."
"Because when the Leaf-eared Cat activates this skill, that \'Wood Spear\' might not fly out from its body."
"As long as there are trees around the Leaf-eared Cat, it can shoot the \'Wood Spear Thrust\' at you from the trees!"
"Also, the number of \'Wood Spear Thrust\' that is launched is not like the \'Green Leaf Flying Daggers\' which fly out one at a time, nor is it like the Vine Whips\' with only two of them.
"\'Wood Spear Thrust\' can be launched at the same time in accordance with the spiritual energy used up by the Leaf-eared Cat!"
"Therefore, the Leaf-eared Cat might shoot out ten \'Wood Spear Thrusts\' at the same time to limit your movements!"
"Metal-feathered Eagle, you have to remember that once you are trapped in the forest, we will have to fight to end this quickly."
"Because under those circumstances, Annie and the Leaf-eared Cat will definitely not give you a chance to fly back into the air."
"Okay, Giles," the Metal-feathered Eagle replied to Giles\' command.
It was full of fighting spirit as it looked determinedly at the Leaf-eared Cat standing on the tree.
