Chapter Thirty-Eight: Flickering
William nodded, and said in a somewhat heavy tone:
"Well, hyena-type magical beasts are basically in groups, and most of them are very difficult to entangle. β
Because there are too many types of first-order demonic beasts, William doesn't remember very clearly, only knowing that this hyena is a unique demonic beast in the Twilight Mountains, with dual attributes of toxin and flame, although the strength is very poor, but the speed and endurance can be ranked at the top among the first-order demonic beasts.
Thinking of this, he frowned and added: "As for the Poisonous Fire Hyena, it should be regarded as a particularly difficult magical beast, one-on-one, the first-order knights are not their opponents, and the number of this thing is generally not less than fifty." β
Fifty! Jessica's pupils narrowed, staring at the hyenas slowly emerging from the dense forest, and began to look at these guys that William had evaluated as particularly difficult.
The poisonous fire hyena is covered in gray-brown stripes, and its size is not very large, even smaller than the average large retriever. But it has a long, thick neck with bulging strips of muscle that go all the way to the lower jaw.
They have two valgus canines at the corners of their mouths, and the white canines are thick and sharp, and the jagged fangs in the mouth can be faintly seen through the outer lip that is opened by the canines. If you are bitten by these guys, people who don't have armor on them will lose two catties of meat directly.
And not only that, the outward opening of the teeth flowed red and green mixed saliva water, these strangely colored saliva will fall to the ground, will emit green smoke, I am afraid it is far from ordinary saliva as simple.
Jessica glanced at William with a hesitant face, or don't take this guy with him, even if he has the intention of agreeing to himself, but hasn't he agreed yet, moving with someone who has not been soaked in the body of the shadow power will almost double the energy consumed, and if he moves a few times in a row, even if the shadow power can hold up, his head is afraid to burst.
However, the man opposite seemed to see through her thoughts again, and in Jessica's surprised gaze, William held his helmet and said as if he were dead (facial paralysis):
"This ...... I don't know what your name is, Miss Knight, I won't agree to your solicitation, these hyenas have a strong sense of smell and stamina, my mount has lost its strength, and you still have the possibility of escaping with your speed. I can stay here and take most of the hyenas for you......"
Speaking of this, William hesitated, he was still working desperately just now, isn't it too pretentious to make selfless dedication now? Or let's put forward a condition.
"If you admit this favor, when you become a big man in the future, be kind to ordinary people who just want to live. β
In order to increase the persuasiveness of his words, William even took the initiative to lift his mask and use a beautiful man's trick, showed her a free and easy smile, and then resolutely turned around and rushed towards the hyena group in the dense forest.
Looking at the man's resolute back, Jessica was struck by lightning.
When she saw William's face for the first time, she was shocked, and what shocked her was not only William's handsome face, but also the two points of childishness on his face that had not yet disappeared, and the smile that looked (pretended) broken (molded) and cut (like).
He had known everything for a long time, and he was not unaware of the woman's plans. Such a smart person doesn't need me to remind him at all, how can he not see through her true face after following that woman for so many years?
However, in order to be able to achieve your beliefs, would you rather choose to be deceived?
The female knight felt that her long-dead tear ducts suddenly loosened, and she realized a little that the words that this man said when he stood in front of the queen were probably not just to coax herself.
Jessica took a deep breath, her legs slightly clamped and urged Dire to take a few steps forward, and whispered to William, "What did you say earlier...... Are they all true?"
William was numb by this question.
Of course, it's not true! We were fighting to the death before, how could we turn around and block the gun for you! What do you mean by that? Do you see through that I'm fooling you?
William Van Inns never lied, but he wasn't obligated to say everything, and if you misunderstood, I couldn't blame me.
Poisonous fire hyenas are fast but less powerful, so they will give preference to prey with weaker defenses and smaller size.
The endurance of these guys is very amazing, and they can continue to chase prey in the mountains for more than three hours under the extreme state, and the Dire rider is a fart! As long as it is a non-flying profession, when you meet these guys, you are not even qualified to run until you reach the fourth order!
As long as Jessica starts to run away, she will directly lead away more than eighty percent of the poisonous fire hyenas, and the remaining ten or twenty will not be a problem at all. High endurance and speed are not without a price, and in addition to the fact that the poisonous fire hyena is a little threatening with its mouth, the damage of pounce and scratching is not as good as that of ordinary hunting dogs.
A heavily armored class like William looks very silly when facing a Dire rider, but the poisoned fire hyena can take advantage of it, as long as it hides its mouth with poisonous fire, other attacks on the body will not break the defense at all, and it will be scraping no matter how many times it is hit.
"Hmm," William replied vaguely. "I have no hope of escaping, and it would be nice to have a little bit of a wish fulfilled through you. β
"Roar" Seven or eight poisonous fire hyenas pounced, interrupting William's words.
He avoided biting his limbs, but instead took a half-step forward, breaking the nose of a hyena with his thick breastplate. Then he reached out and grabbed its neck as a weapon, and smashed back the hyenas that rushed up around him one by one, but more and more hyenas pounced, and soon, he was drowned in the herd.
"Wish...... Is it?"
Jessica sniffed, she wanted to ask not the same few words, but William's answer was enough for her to come up with an answer.
Looking at the figure that was gradually surrounded by the beasts, she suddenly felt a little throbbing in her heart, where it was not only a young life that was waiting for destruction, but also a noble soul.
"Wow!"
A neighing of horses rang out, and the dark hooves swirled around the shadows, tearing apart the herd of swooping beasts.
In William's stunned gaze, the female knight rode through the encirclement of the poisonous fire hyena, reached out and copied him directly to the horse, Jessica clutched the reins with one hand, hugged William's breastplate with the other, and forcibly endured the burning pain of the cranial nerve and started to move again.
William felt that his eyes were dark, and then there was a sudden feeling of suffocation, as if the whole person was immersed in the autumn lake water, and a cold energy poured him cold from his feet to his head.
When light returned to his eyes, they had appeared in the shadows not far ahead.
"You're going to do it yourself!" Jessica snorted as she stared straight ahead. "Remember what you owe me! Live for me, and sooner or later I'll prove with my own hands how stupid your naΓ―ve ideas really are!"
