hunt and eat

Without too much hesitation, accompanied by a deafening sharp hiss, the poisonous spider pulled up its upper body instantly, bent its abdomen sharply, and pointed the end of its body straight ahead.

Numerous white flocculent silk threads, with the elasticity visible to the naked eye, are ejected layer by layer at high speed,

However, at the moment when the spreading silk threads converged under a large net, a black-red "silk thread" also appeared in midair at the same time.

Tear ~ Tear

The next moment, the silk threads all over the sky were split in two, revealing the ancient pagoda holding a scythe in one hand behind it.

"Are you... joking with me?" Guta's face was full of surprise.

What he wanted was a hearty, rewarding hunt, not a tentative trick like this one.

Seemingly aware of the strength of the human hunter in front of him, the shadow spider no longer hesitated, and rammed straight into the ancient pagoda with a ramming move similar to that of a dragon chariot.

The heavy body, at the moment of charging, brought a mighty momentum like a locomotive.

Halfway through the journey, the shadow spider's eyes suddenly turned, and it drifted sideways, sliding directly behind the ancient pagoda.

At the same time, a pair of "short" horns that were originally inconspicuous compared to its size, ejected in an instant, and turned into a giant "scissors" with a length of four to five meters and dense spikes. , to the ancient pagoda in it.

"This is... a little more plausible."

The unrecognizable voice of the voice, accompanied by the black wind blowing at an unknown time, drifted through the forest.

When Guta took back the sickle of pain in his hand, the secret weapon that Shadow Spider was proud of, the pair of huge ejectable horned mouthparts, was completely broken into more than a dozen pieces, and fell to the ground with a crash.

If someone can observe carefully at this time, they will find that the fragments of the corners, each broken section is as flat as a work of art, making one wonder if it is the product of machine cutting.

【Eight Disasters·Mirror Wind】

Turning a deaf ear to the wail of the shadow spider, he had already walked to the nearby ancient tower and waved the scythe directly.

The blood-colored full moon flashed past the shadow spider's neck, and finally turned into a rising blood-colored wave, splashing down on the ground.

With one foot, the head of the shadow spider, which was still stretching and retracting its mouthparts, was crushed, and Guta retracted the increasingly scarlet Taotie behind his back.

"Well, let's count it as the first point."

……

Chapter 20 Young Monsters

Not far away, watching the battle that ended in an instant, the three shadow hunters who were following the ancient tower and Miejue were speechless for a while in shock.

Although I know that Guta, the chief of the reserves, is very strong, but this scene is too outrageous, right?

The shadow spider is the little lord of the surrounding area. In the outside world, even those high-ranking flying dragons such as fire dragons, it is hard to say whether they can win when they encounter it?

How come after encountering the ancient pagoda, they just cut melons and vegetables and disappeared?

To be honest, they can accept even a stalemate for a while, but right now...

This kind of naked instant kill is really beyond their comprehension.

"Okay, you two, you don't need to continue to follow... The follow-up monitoring and protection work will be left to the old man and the old man next to me."

An old woman in plain clothes and reading glasses patted the three shadow hunters who were communicating in a low voice, scaring the latter so much that they almost drew their swords.

"The perception level of today's young people is too low."

Beside the old woman, an old man with a bald head and wearing similar clothes snorted, expressing his dissatisfaction.

"My lord [Buyi], my lord [Coir raincoat], we..."

The three shadow hunters, whose faces were flushed, were a little embarrassed and wanted to explain something, but they were interrupted by the old woman called [Commoner] who directly stretched out her hand.

"Okay, don't delay, just go back and explain the situation to the dark crow boy... You should be very clear that that one is not someone you have the ability to monitor." Shaking her head, the old woman adjusted her reading glasses, His tone was soft and a little serious.

Seeing the two retired natural disaster-level hunters say this, the three shadow hunters looked at each other helplessly, bowed in unison, packed their things and started to leave.

Along with their departure, the sound of relieved breathing can be faintly heard.

"The current group of young people really can't do it. What kind of quality do they have?"

The bald old man spat on the ground cursingly, with disgust on his face.

"Don't talk nonsense, I think these children this year are rare good seedlings."

"Also, if you continue to scold, be careful who comes directly to you."

Commoner glanced at his wife next to him, and pointed to the tall figure in this direction through the forest that was [-] meters away.

Logically speaking, from this position of the opponent, it should be impossible to find them.

But the fact is that their existence has been completely exposed.

"..."

Looking at the half-smile expression on the other party's face, the old man who was cursing at first suddenly lost his temper, scratched his bald head in embarrassment, and whispered to his wife:

"It must have been exposed by those young people, I can't..."

"Okay, you can calm down for a while, you are so old, and you are still the same as when you were young, competitive."

Commoner rubbed his sore brows and said angrily.

"Hey, how can it be, I'm just expressing my feelings, it's not... Okay, okay, I shut up, I shut up."

Facing his wife's staring attack, the old man hurriedly lowered his head, and by the way, glanced at the ancient tower that had already left with his partner in the distance.

"It's really... as strong as a monster."

"Maybe the one is back..."

……

At the same time, the northwest direction of [Forest of the Dead]

The short black-haired boy pulled out his arm with blue-gold claws from the chest of a giant green bear, and looked at the gray-haired young man behind him.

"Olga, do you need to get rid of the two shadow hunters behind you?"

"It's not necessary, just let them follow." Shaking her head, Olga blew on the giant horn beside her.

Soon, two huge rhinoceros-like giant beetles rushed out of the nearby woods, lowered their heads and gnawed on the steaming fresh corpses at their feet.

"I don't really understand why you wanted to form an alliance with Guta in the first place?"

"He is indeed strong, but if it is only for the priority of going to the New World, our strength should be enough."

Sanriyue's fingers with claws closed together, and slashed straight across the root of the big tooth of the blue bear beast.

The teeth made of hard material were as fragile as tofu in front of the hand knife, and they were cut off without the slightest struggle.

"The alliance between us is not just for going to the new world."

Olga chuckled, and glanced at Crescent Moon, who had put her teeth away, "Look a little longer, Crescent Moon...We will inevitably have to contact that person frequently in the future."

"Is it to please?" San Riyue, who always had a calm face, asked bluntly.

"Hey, it's a bit harsh to say that, but..." Olga scratched her head, and smiled, "That's about it."

"Whether it is to find a future source for other brothers, or for the ideals of the year, we need to find a strong enough backer."

Regarding Olga's statement, a rare look of confusion appeared on Sankayue's face.

He didn't quite understand that the Canglan Star team should be just a small team, and now even the captain Guta, who is known as the "second generation of Venus", is not strong enough to form a group of his own. Bar.

Why did Olga use the term "backer"?

As if seeing her brother's doubts, Olga simply spoke up.

"Half a year ago, by chance, I came into contact with some extremely secret information inside the Longli Academy, including information about the taboo kings [Annihilation Qing] and [Black Dragon] back then."

"The legend about the immortality of the taboo king is very likely...not just a legend."

Sanriyue's originally calm pupils suddenly burst into violent shaking.

"If the ancient pagoda is not just an ancient pagoda, and [Annihilation Qing] has never died, then no matter the height he can reach in the future, or those old ministries that once belonged to him, they are destined to have him as the core, It will create a force of unprecedented scale."

"Our ideal, the future destination of our brothers, the [Tekkadan] that never actually existed but has long been established, will all be realized under this destination."

Looking at Olga who was getting more and more excited, Sankayue's eyes flashed with thought, but in the end it turned into complete trust.

Olga was the leader of all of them, and since he said he wanted to place a bet, he just had to follow suit.

Olga can't be wrong.

"Do you need me to do something?" Sanriyue asked softly.

Seemingly realizing that she was a little too excited, Olga coughed twice, and gradually returned to her former composure.

He looked at his most trusted brother seriously, and said word by word:

"Become stronger... Sanriyue"

"You just have to keep getting stronger."

The simple and direct words made Mikayue, who is only 1.6 meters tall but has a calm and mature appearance that is completely different from her appearance, nodded slowly.

"I understand."

"It also happens to be what I'm best at."

……

Chapter 21 The "Warm Hearted" Tower and the Obligatory "Help"

"Then, the third head..."

After the muffled sound of flesh being torn apart, a bloody black-red blade was slowly pulled out from the black corpse of Xunlong under his feet.

Standing up slowly, Guta took a look at the battle that was almost resolved at the same time, cut off the tail spine of the other Xunlong beside him, and added another sentence:

"It's the fourth head now."

The Xunlong that Miejin dealt with had half of its wings cut off by Guta at the very beginning, and it has a strong desire to survive if it can survive until now.

With a flick of the wrist, the five-meter-long [Yuan Swallowing Demon Blade] in his hand instantly gathered and tightened, turning into a blood-red hook and sickle, which was gently placed on the side of the shoulder.

The ability of the Xunlong just flashed through his mind, and Guta frowned immediately.

"It's such a big body, but its abilities are almost all degraded versions. Why?"

From the beginning of the trial to the present, except for the shadow spider at the beginning, neither the blue speed dragon king I met later nor the speed dragon in front of me have provided any good abilities, and most of them are even biased towards race. The necessary abilities are all in a strange gray color, indicating that they cannot be taken.

There is no doubt that there is a huge difference between this and Guta's vision of harvesting abilities in this forest of the dead.

"Forget it, it's the same as before... Take the basic attributes."

Thinking about the characteristics of Xunlong, Guta seized Xunlong's [Speed] this time.

During this process, Guta also took a look at the new ability he had obtained from the shadow spider.

[Puppet Line·Thinking] (3/7)

【Cutting off love and thinking, heart fluttering like hemp】

Unknowingly, this "Seven Emotions" series of abilities, which I still don't understand how to use, has collected as many as three.

Although I didn't expect to collect all seven abilities, but after all, I have the ability of seven puzzles, even if it is a collection, there is nothing wrong with it.

Besides, people have to have dreams... What if?

But then again, if it continues like this now, even after the trial is over, I'm afraid I won't be able to meet many monsters with enough plundering value, right?

After all, he and Miejin are only two people together, even if the hunting speed is fast enough, there is still the problem of lack of skills.

The most terrible thing is the insect guide light that will remind the mission monster. The response is not too sharp, and it is easy to miss it if you are a little farther away.

Like the two raptors just now, it was Guta who walked up to their faces with the lamp, which triggered the color change of the guide insects.

It's not going to work like this, it's rare to come to a "treasure mountain" full of monsters above the standard, it doesn't make sense to go back empty-handed...

When Guta was worrying, suddenly, after the awakening of his blood, he became like an elf. His sharp ears twitched, and then he looked behind him.

A young man with a long stick in the shape of an insect stick and a braid tied with a rope walked out of a forest.

For some reason, Guta inexplicably felt a bookish atmosphere from him.

In a sense, this guy is more like a scholar than Olga.

After staring at each other for a while, the young man silently glanced at the ancient pagoda and the two giant velociraptors at the feet of Miejin, which had long been silent.
