125: Thunder Fire Pearl
“The Blood Shadow Secret Art is truly tricky.”
“To think he could still escape from the three of us.”
At this moment, a man, Li Wen, frowned and said, feeling somewhat disgraced by their failure.
Hearing this, the woman calmly stated, “He can’t run away.”
“My Little Gold has already locked onto his aura.”
“He’s not far ahead.”
“Moreover, this location is already close to the university, so he has no wings to fly.”
The other man echoed, “That’s right, we just need to hurry.”
Li Wen’s expression improved slightly upon hearing this, and he looked at the rapidly passing scenery.
He patted the white fur below him.
“Dan Hong, accelerate!”
“As fast as possible.”
“Caw!”
The Dan Hong White Crane beneath him responded.
Its speed increased once more, and the sound of it breaking through the air grew louder… Meanwhile, by the spirit field.
The Ancient Wood Guardian was locked in a fierce battle with three individuals.
With the Giant Rock Monster drawing its fire, it couldn’t break through immediately.
The Ice Soul Flying Eagle and Night were unleashing attacks from the shadows.
Although its defense was astonishing, and it possessed a decent healing ability, it could only barely withstand these attacks, as it wasn’t in its peak condition.
Even if its rank was high, it was a three-on-one fight, and it wasn't at full strength, so the opponent was clearly no match.
However, this was clearly a Beastmaster’s beast, and another person was hidden somewhere.
Moreover, the Ancient Wood Guardian, as they had learned in the alien language class yesterday, was a common beast among alien races. Lin Shu then spoke up.
“This beast is the most common one among alien forces.”
“I think that alien Beastmaster must be hiding in a corner.”
Liu Jie strongly agreed with Lin Shu’s words, having also noticed this point.
He couldn't help but admire Lin Shu’s keen reaction.
After all, having been at the university for so long, he had seen many alien races in this area.
“That’s right.”
“We not only need to keep an eye on the Ancient Wood Guardian in front of us but also watch out for the alien in the corner.”
Chu Yu stood quietly to the side, listening to their conversation and understanding the current problem.
“The Ancient Wood Guardian is severely injured, and I imagine its Beastmaster is as well.”
“Since the opponent has no intention of showing himself, we’ll deal with this beast first.”
The two had no objections to this, clearly agreeing with the statement.
“Agreed” * 2
The three then instructed their beasts to launch an even fiercer offensive.
For a moment, skills rained down like a storm, and the Ancient Wood Guardian roared incessantly.
Suddenly, it stomped its foot.
Huge green vines shot up from the ground, chasing in several directions like green chains.
It was clearly provoked, and these ‘little ants,’ combined with the side effects of the secret art it had used earlier, made it even more furious.
This skill was quite powerful, extremely effective against melee beasts, but unfortunately, it still had little effect against two flying beasts.
Under Lin Shu’s command, Night was like an assassin in the shadows.
Between flashes of bright white blade light, it would draw its blade and deliver several fierce attacks.
The flexible, tentacle-like vines were always unable to hit him, who was as slippery as an eel.
This caused the Ancient Wood Guardian to only be able to let out impotent roars of fury, yet it was helpless.
The Ice Soul Flying Eagle’s attack capabilities were even comparable to Night’s, perhaps even more ferocious.
Those irritating freezing effects and slowing abilities made it difficult for it to move.
Its originally emerald green skin was now covered in frost.
Its entire body became increasingly stiff, turning it into a large, living target.
Without a doubt, it could be killed in just a moment… Not far away, the black-clad alien gritted his teeth, full of resentment.
He knew he had lost his last chance, with no way out.
“Damn it! Damn it!”
“It’s three more Blue Star people!”
The situation was so similar to before, except these three were slightly weaker.
He shouldn’t have gone out alone.
Looking at Lin Shu and Chu Yu’s somewhat youthful faces.
“These are your Great Xia’s genius Beastmasters?”
He then bared his teeth in a grim smile.
“Then let your beasts be buried with me!”
He had an idea in his mind; he wanted to take them all down with him.
The thunderfire pearl in his hand was clutched even tighter.
However, he still needed a little bit of enticement.
The opponents were new to this, so they would surely fall for it!
...The Ancient Wood Guardian’s steps became unsteady, its injuries growing more severe.
Its body was covered in freezing wounds and blade-sized gashes.
The green glow within its body still slowly healed its wounds, but the speed was too slow, completely unable to cope with the severe injuries.
A large amount of blood gushed out, and its defiant expression turned into one of scurrying away with its head in its hands.
If this continued, it could only wait for death.
Without hesitation, it immediately began to run backward.
This appearance suggested it wanted to escape.
However, its speed and posture felt somewhat off.
After all, the three of them understood the cunning and malicious nature of aliens, so caution was still advisable.
They all stood still, making no moves.
They just watched it run away quietly.
This, in turn, made the Ancient Wood Guardian somewhat confused.
You guys aren’t even coming to finish me off?
Do you even know how to be a Beastmaster?
Its originally confident plan instantly fell through.
The black-clad alien’s face was grim, his fists clenched.
The Ancient Wood Guardian was already a candle in the wind; he had no chance left.
Since you are unwilling to be decent, I will help you be decent.
He then used all his strength to throw the thunderfire pearl high into the air.
A large wooden hand steadily caught it, holding it in its grasp.
“Go! Go!”
“Let them all be buried with me!”
The Ancient Wood Guardian didn’t look back, charging forward like a self-destructing truck, Ramming into them with abandon.
Its speed was significantly faster than before.
The three naturally saw this movement and knew something was seriously wrong.
Liu Jie’s urgent voice shouted loudly, “It’s a thunderfire pearl!”
“Its power is immense; don’t let your beasts get close, run!”
Earth Splendor had previously, under Lin Shu’s command, hidden to the side and not run around wildly.
Chu Yu likewise directed the Ice Soul Flying Eagle to flee to one side.
Aside from the Giant Rock Monster, it had almost no targets that could harm it.
Lin Shu gave a look, and Night immediately understood, transforming into an afterimage and disappearing.
The distance grew shorter and shorter, and Liu Jie was sweating profusely.
His expression turned ugly; his Giant Rock Monster was about to face a life-or-death situation.
Run, faster!
Chu Yu was equally nervous; a single strike from this thunderfire pearl was enough to kill a sixth-tier beast.
However, after activation, it had a buffer time of about half a minute, acting like a time bomb.
It was far from something an ordinary beast could withstand head-on.
The Ancient Wood Guardian’s sneer grew more terrifying; even if it died, dragging one down with it would be good.
The black-clad alien slumped, his eyes also fixed on the front.
He felt a slight regret that the two Great Xia genius Beastmasters were too fast; otherwise, he would have been even more satisfied.
A smile appeared, revealing an expression of delight; he was ready to welcome the imminent massive explosion!
But the black shadow that suddenly appeared beside him elicited no reaction.
A flash of snowy white light streaked past.
It was only then that he reacted, his eyes filled with shock and disbelief.
His pupils constricted, and then he lost all sensation.
A fine head then fell.
So fast, when was it…?
