Chapter 6: The Seriously Injured Subspecies of Strange Birds
"There's a feather here."
"Strange birds' gastric juices were found here."
"It's weird... Strange birds are creatures that don't have a habit of spitting out gastric juice when they swallow food..."
Uncle Fat, the hunter who led the team, said.
"Could it be that there is a fight with other demonic beasts?"
Asked one of the hunters inside.
"Theoretically speaking, strange birds are generally dominant in this desert area, what magical beasts can fight against it?"
Uncle Fat Hunter pondered.
"Captain, come over here for a moment."
"What is this?"
There was a piece of fur on the ground, covered with black and gray animal hair, which according to the size must have been torn off by the beak of a strange bird.
"With a dense fur... A power that can compete with strange birds... And it will also appear in desert areas..."
The clue points to a rather common giant beast in the desert area, the Sand Lion King.
Sand Lion King - Level 4 Demonic Beast
Living in desert areas, feeding on common desert monsters, such as desert speed dragons, sandworms, etc., it has the ability to sandstorm, and its movements are flexible and extremely agile.
"In this case, it should be the Sand Lion King."
Uncle Fat said.
"We have been investigating this strange bird for many months, and according to the living habits of strange birds, it should not have walked in desert areas, but now there is an additional sand lion king..."
"But we've been tracking it for months, should we give up?"
"But now the action is too risky, if we don't encounter two demonic beasts, we will be in danger."
I discuss the hunters inside one by one.
"It's impossible to give up, my child is going to marry a daughter-in-law, and the money spent is not a small amount, and this money depends on the material of this strange bird."
Uncle Fat Hunter said with a solemn expression.
"That's your family's business, and I don't want to die."
"You're going to send your life, you're going to send it yourself."
There are some hunters who have joined halfway through have begun to get scared and decisively choose to quit.
"Boss, we have all come over this way for so many years, either we live together, or even if we die, we have to die together."
He patted the fat hunter on the shoulder and said.
"Good brother."
The fat hunter sighed.
"Aren't you leaving, young man?"
One of the veteran hunters asked.
"To be stronger, you can't be afraid."
Wuchou said firmly.
After Tangerine, he knows that the strength in the world is respected, and those who do not have strength can only suffer humiliation, so no matter what, he has to walk at the peak of this world and create a truly fair world, and now is the first step, if even the strange birds, the sand lion king will be scared, and talk about killing the dragons in the world.
"Good! In this case, from now on, you are our brother, and I am the captain Zhang Pingchuan. ”
"I'm Liu Kai."
"I'm Huang Liangdong."
"I am ......"
The other hunters who are willing to stay, the hunters who are willing to gamble their lives, all have their own things that they must do, since they have a common goal, and they are born and die, everyone is a good brother.
In this dusk desert, the group made an oath of crusade.
If you don't achieve your goal, you'd rather bury yourself in the loess and return to Huangquan than take off your armor and run away.
......
The temperature on the desert changed very much, and the cold wind made everyone shiver with cold, but they couldn't make a fire, because at night they would make a fire like this, which would attract the attention of the monsters.
"There are more and more blood stains, and it is estimated that this was left in the morning."
Liu Kai said.
"It shouldn't be far from them, everyone stay on guard and move slowly."
Zhang Pingchuan said.
Along the way, they could see the corpses of many weak monsters, and the wounds on their bodies were in the shape of a bird's beak, so that the group could be more sure that they were not far from the strange birds.
"Everyone remembers, even if it is an injured strange bird, we still should not underestimate it, generally speaking, strange birds do not appear in desert areas, and there is only one possibility for its appearance, this is a subspecies of strange birds."
Zhang Pingchuan said cautiously.
"Subspecies... In this way, we are facing two fourth-level demonic beasts. ”
The hunter named Lin Shuang said.
"Now that you're here, there's no way back."
Zhang Pingchuan said.
"Yes, we each have something in our hearts that we want to protect, and we will not hesitate to risk our lives for this."
Wuchou said.
"Xiaofeng, I'll leave it to you."
"Huh."
Xiaofeng followed the bloodstains all the way to a cave, and Wuchou and the others followed slowly, for fear of being discovered by strange birds or the sand lion king.
Suddenly, Xiao Feng stopped moving, staring at the stone wall not far in front of him.
I saw a strange bird lying at the end of the stone wall covered in wounds, next to it were the corpses of different kinds of monsters, it seemed that he had just had a full meal, and there was a hole on the top of the cave, the size was big enough for the strange bird to fly out, obviously this is the nest of the strange bird!
This strange bird should have messed into the territory of the Sand Lion King and attracted the attack of the Sand Lion King!
"Be quiet and find the target."
Zhang Pingchuan made a silent gesture.
The group began to disperse slowly, those with guns and bows and arrows stood in the distance, and those with knives and guns approached the strange birds.
"Hit the bird so its wings that it can't escape."
Zhang Pingchuan instructed with gestures.
Wu Wu waited for the people with melee weapons to run to the other side of the Strange Bird's right flank, and the other people with long-range weapons all aimed at the left flank of the Strange Bird.
The stranger bird in the seriously injured body did not seem to be alert, and still slept soundly.
"Attack!"
Zhang Pingchuan's attack order was given, and all the people attacked the wings of the strange bird at the same time, and the melee hunters such as Wuchou took knives and slashed wildly at the right flank of the strange bird, and the hunters who attacked from a distance also opened fire to attack the left wing of the strange bird.
"Boom!!!"
The strange bird was stimulated by the sudden pain of the attack, and its high-pitched cry forced everyone to cover their ears with their hands.
The seriously injured strange bird stared at the hunters around him, and his body more than five meters tall was covered with wounds left by the Sand Lion King.
"Huh!!"
The strange bird screamed again and tried to flee, but its wings flapped and flew into the air, only to fall again.
The wings were badly damaged, and they could no longer support its massive body into the air.
"He can't fly, attack now!"
Zhang Pingchuan again gave the order to attack.
"Kill !!"
Once again, the other hunters took up their weapons and went crazy at the birds.
The strange bird turned violently and swept all the melee hunters out with its tail, including Wuchou, the powerful impact made them unable to stand up for a while, and a trace of blood oozed from the corner of their mouth.
"Little wind! Bite its tail! ”
Wuchou said to Xiaofeng.
"Whew!!"
Xiao Feng struggled to jump onto the back of the strange bird, ran down the tail to the end and bit down, although Xiao Feng is not yet an adult or in the juvenile stage, but even so, it was originally a four-star demonic beast, and the bite ability of the teeth is inherently strong, compared with the adult wind and frost ice wolf, there is only a difference between the size and the ice core.
Xiao Feng bit the tail of the strange bird, and never let go of its mouth even if it continued to struggle, every time the strange bird struggled it needed to endure great pain, and slowly the strange bird gave up the struggle, and instead condensed a fireball from its mouth.
"Fire Core!! It has a fire core in it! ”
The hunters were amazed and delighted.
Surprisingly, this strange bird has more means of attack, and with their mere two-star hunter's defensive equipment, it can't resist the power of the fire elemental.
The good news is that if it can be successfully hunted, the value of the fire core is quite high, comparable to the total price of all the materials in the body of the strange bird.
Fierce battles, on the verge of breaking out.
