"This transformation...... Whatever it is, it doesn't seem to be the same as the last time I saw it. Sen Luo took the one-handed sword handed by the captain, opened and closed his eyes a few times, and observed carefully.

"That's right, the wings weren't erected, and there wasn't a spilled thunderbolt." Bai Ye raised the rhino's neck, the battle was still ongoing, and he only had time to feed the team a bottle of recovery potion, "The previous guess was not wrong, that level of strength really still needs a price." ”

The transformation of the golden lion at this moment was not as fanfare as it was last time, but it was completed silently, like some kind of incomplete version. I don't know if it's the reality or the psychological effect, the Shadow Hunters just feel that its coat color is a little darker than before, and with its scarred body and broken half of its horns, it has a sense of heroic twilight.

"If it's just this level, maybe there's still a chance." White Night threw away the empty medicine bottle. A bottle of recovery agent went down, and the sluggish tower giant was a little brighter. However, the muscles of the silver armor hunter were still limp under the effect of thunder and lightning, and there was no possibility of standing up for a while, obviously unable to participate in the next battle, "Senluo, send the rhino to a safe place, and I'll hold it down for a while." ”

"Uh...... I don't think it's needed. Sen Luo was engrossed in the actions of the ivory beast species, and quietly walked around a few steps under his feet. The hunter's eyes followed the golden lion's gaze, "The beast's target...... Seems like something else? ”

Clothed himself in golden armor, the king of the tooth beast changed his state of lack of spirit, and the arrogance and battle spirit that the dragon family should have surged. The monster's gaze was cast upward, the heavy crossbow on the cliff had been extinguished for a long time, and the three members of Kaede's team had probably left the area. The golden lion searched with his gaze, and finally locked on a winding path hidden between the mountain walls.

"Not good...... Block it! ”

Even though he was the first to sense the monster's intentions, Bai Ye's order was still a beat slower in the end. The golden lion's hind feet rubbed against the ground, and its body fell like a full bowstring to gather strength. The next moment, the golden beast turned into a streamer of light and rushed up against the mountain wall. Sen Luo raised his weapon and stepped forward to block it, only to eat the strong wind behind the tail of the tooth beast, and the leaping monster swept in front of him at unimaginable speed. The monster went straight to the bottom of the cliff, but it didn't mean to slow down at all, and when it was still four or five meters away from the cliff, it jumped forward, and its sharp front claws cut into the volcanic rock like cutting tofu, and suspended its whole body from the stone wall.

"Are you kidding?" Feng He would have thought that the transformed golden lion did not seek revenge against the trio under the mountain, but found himself as soon as possible. The hunter walking on the road only felt a shock under his feet, and the monster's multi-ton body climbed up the mountain rock, which made the entire foundation tremble three times. Listening to the sound of the giant beast breaking through the rock wall, Kaede also hurriedly urged the two girls behind him, "Hurry up!" ”

The average width of the path between the walls could only allow two people to walk side by side, and the narrowest point had to be sideways against the wall to pass, and no matter how much the hunter urged them, the three of them could not move quickly.

"Peng ......" relied on the momentum of running on the ground and two strong forelimbs to move a few times on the mountain wall, and the golden lion finally reached the edge of the path. The black claws of the dragon clan pressed to the top of the cliff, just in front of the hunters. The beast's hind feet kept kicking off pieces of rubble from the stone walls, the roots of its fangs sticking outward, and its head emerging little by little from the blind spot of the hunters' vision.

"Go back, go back!" Seeing that the monster was already close at hand, Kaede's hand hurriedly pointed back and ordered the girls to retreat to the platform where the ambush was being attacked. The hunter himself drew the heavy sword behind his back and met the golden lion who climbed the mountain wall without thinking.

"You know the last ...... It's still going to be like this. "Even if there are ten thousand reluctances in my heart to fight against the top-level predators, no matter how many times I repeat my creed of protecting my life, when the monster finally threatens herself and the companions behind her, Kaede still breaks through the scruples in her thoughts. Knowing that the battle had become the last and only means of saving his life, the old hunter also let go of the remaining luck. He lifted his heavy sword and slashed at the claws of the beast that had stomped up the mountain.

"Whew!" Even if the great sword can't cut through the golden lion's thick flesh, the weight alone is enough to make the toothed beast species suffer a little. The monster's claws shrank back subconsciously in pain, most of its body hung in the air, its foothold was unstable, and after losing a fulcrum, it slid down a lot, scratching six deep claw marks on the stone wall.

The blow worked, and the hunter's heart was settled. Kaede poked his head out of the cliff, but there was no trace of the golden lion under his feet. The Shadow Hunter thought for a moment, and then raised his head, and the dragon somehow leaped high above everyone's heads, landing on the hunters' retreat.

"Boom ——!" The narrow mountain road obviously couldn't easily accommodate such a behemoth, and as soon as the golden lion's hind feet touched the ground, several cracks burst out of the volcanic rock beneath him. The rift spread in all directions in an instant, and large chunks of red-black rock collapsed from the mountain, and the only retreat for the hunters was unreasonably cut off.

The fragility of the cliff surprised the King of the Tooth Beasts, and the monster's front paws hurriedly grabbed the relatively stable part of the ground, and almost did not fall to the bottom of the cliff with the falling stones. The dragon clan finally stood firm halfway up the mountain, and roared proudly at the desperate hunters in front of them.

"Bang-bang!" Before Feng Tijian could attack again, a series of rhythmic popping sounds came from the hunter's side. Ah Dong raised his heavy crossbow and poured it towards the foot of the ivory beast species. The beast's howl was suffocated back into its throat halfway through, and it was inconvenient to dodge on the narrow road, so the golden lion had no choice but to lean down, its head retracted behind its forelimbs. There was a muffled pop on the monster's arm armor, and the bullet hit the very tough membrane and it was difficult to move an inch, and they all ran out of kinetic energy and fell to the ground with a clang. The crossbow scorched only a handful of hair, adding a few black patterns to the dragon's already mottled forelimbs.

"What are you doing? Why don't you go quickly? Kaede turned around and found that the two girls hadn't left as they had ordered, and couldn't help but scold her. Hearing the Shadow Hunter's shout, Ah Dong glanced at him in a hurry, neither leaving nor answering, just biting his lip and holding the trigger on his hand. Axia's twin knives were already unsheathed, and he followed behind Kaede not far away, and he didn't have the slightest intention of hiding.

"Okay!" The twins' eyes were as firm as one, the old hunter stomped his feet hatefully, facing the two unappreciative girls, he couldn't even scold half a word of reprimand, and when he spoke again, his tone had softened a little, "The terrain here is too narrow, if you want to fight, you have to retreat to the platform just now." ”

The two sisters nodded in response, and while Ah Dong's crossbow could temporarily suppress the footsteps of the tooth beast species, the three of them slowly retreated in the direction of the platform. The evacuation route had collapsed, and the hunters could only hope for a slim chance of survival in a slightly more open area.

"Hell, it's only been a while, have all the people who are against the scales dead?" While retreating, Kaede kept looking down the cliff. Of course, the hunter did not think that he could defeat the dragons, and he was waiting for the help of the scales at the bottom of the cliff. From the very beginning, they involved themselves and others in this battle, and they should also think of some ways to support the current predicament.

The only crossbowman on the team is in distress, and Bai Ye and Sen Luo are not unwilling to help. It's just that the two of them chased the footsteps of the golden lion and ran all the way along the bottom of the cliff, but they were helpless for a while.

The stone wall is not high, only dozens of meters, but there is no protection in the process of climbing, once it is detected by the golden lion, whatever you do, you are both more auspicious. Throwing weapons and props upwards is even more meaningless, and as the frequency of falling rocks increases, it is difficult for the two to maintain the distance between them. Unless the three people on the top first find a way to escape from the halfway up the mountain, even if the two Shadow Hunters are shocking, they will not be able to reach the whip.

"They won't last long......" Sen Luo's face was gloomy, and the golden lion above his head had adjusted to the stinging sensation of metal particles falling on his body, and was rushing forward with a barrage of heavy crossbows. With each step the monster took forward, the stone wall behind it would collapse, leaving less and less room for Feng and his party to maneuver. Ballistae can't work endlessly, the barrel can overheat and jam at any time, and the ballista can't withstand this speed of consumption. Once the only protection is gone, the outcome left for them can be imagined.

The spaciousness of the platform is only relatively speaking, and when the huge ivory beasts are also crowded in, it is difficult for the hunters to maintain even a place to stay. Ah Dong's crossbow ran out, and the heavy crossbow was held in his hand like a hot and red volcanic rock, and he had to retreat behind his companion. The two-blader Ah Xia only made one move with the golden lion, and was slapped down on the mountain rock. The small space is not suitable for moving and stabbing attacks, and the difference in the strength of one person and one beast is too large, and after receiving a heavy blow from the dragon's family, the girl can only curl up on the ground like a shrimp, her body twitching slightly.

"It's just a damn brute!" The only one left who can still fight is Kaede. The hunter's heavy sword and the toothed beast fought more than a dozen times, and every time the golden lion's fists were swung out, there was a whining sound of breaking the wind, and when it collided with the heavy sword, it was like crashing into a heavy chariot, and every confrontation seemed to shake the hunter's skeleton apart.

The big sword slashed several times on the shoulder blades of the dragon family, and finally broke through the thick skin of the monster, and the sword blade entered the flesh, and a blood line rushed out of the golden lion's body. However, in the state of the golden hair, the tooth beast species seemed to be fearless of pain, and its eyes were still calmly and frantically waving their fists towards Feng. The hunter struggled to hold on, and his throat was filled with a fishy sweetness, but he was still forced to retreat.

"Boom!" Kaede's footsteps stopped, and his back leaned against the side of the mountain wall, and there was no way to hide here. The black claws of the ivory beast species flashed in front of him, and a slight crackle sounded in front of the hunter's face.

"Dang Chang—" The dust mask shattered into several petals in response, slipped off his face, and was smashed to pieces by the golden lion's punch. Kaede subconsciously took a deep breath, and the long-lost smell of stinky sulfur poured into his nostrils without reservation, making the hunter's face flush and a dry cough. In front of everyone, the shadow of the King of the Ivory Beasts was reflected on the rock wall by the light of lava in the distance, and the three people who were huddled in a corner of the platform like a grim reaper.

"Hey...... Die in a place like this. When it came to the end, Kaede's brows loosened a little, and a slit appeared in his mouth, "If you give me a chance, I hope it's that unicorn who will do it...... At least he died at the hands of Gu Long, and it would sound better to say. ”

As if in response to the Shadow Hunter's prayers, the King of the Tooth Beasts was stunned.

…………

"Whew...... Finally it sensed. On the other side of the battlefield, Dusty was hiding behind the rocks, sweating from his forehead. At the young hunter's waist, the mysterious bone knife was pulled out in half, and a blade was exposed to the air, revealing the crystal white of the material itself under the reflection of the surrounding lava. ”

The King of the Tooth Beasts in the high place maintained the momentum of the slap, but his body stopped. There was a suspicious grunt in the monster's chest, and in the perception of the golden lion, a vague aura of the ancient dragon was coming from behind. The breath does not belong to the unicorn that he is familiar with, and it does not even have the agility that a living creature should have, but the hierarchical suppression in it is real, with a smell of annoyance that makes it can't help but bow and worship.

The dragon's vision enveloped the audience, and the young Shadow Hunter certainly saw the dilemma facing the cliff top where Kaede's predecessor was. Compared to initiating communication from a distance of a few hundred meters, it is still the ancient dragon breath that can better divert the attention of monsters. It's just that the golden lion was too focused on fighting before, and it wasn't until the moment when he was about to win that his attention was distracted from the humans in front of him, and he didn't notice anything strange on the hunting ground.

"Gollum—" The golden lion turned around, a pair of small eyes scouring the mist-covered volcanic hunting grounds, trying to find the mysterious ancient dragon that had recently appeared, but there was no shadow of other creatures in the vast hunting grounds. The fanged beast species locked its gaze behind the stone pile where the dust was hiding, as if it couldn't believe that a life that could emit such momentum could hide in such a small space.

Although he didn't know why, the golden beast stopped its attack at the last moment, and Kaede carefully escaped from the dragon's arms, carrying Ah Dong and Ah Xia. Behind everyone was a towering cliff, where Bai Ye and Sen Luo were waving their hands, Kaede and the two girls looked at each other, picked up Axia, who was injured by the monster, and jumped down without hesitation.

The successive battles shattered a large amount of volcanic rock, and the large and small rubble piled up into several low slopes that could accommodate people. Kaede followed the guidance of the white night below, stepped over the still stable stones one by one, and several of them tumbled over, and finally fell back to the ground. The old hunter laid Asha flat on the spot, pried open the girl's mouth and fed a bottle of restorer.

"Can this guy still climb walls, when he's a pincer horn species?" The old hunter drank a bottle himself, wiped his mouth, and said calmly.

"It's a dragon, and I wouldn't be surprised to fly with those hairy wings." Bai Ye shrugged his shoulders and asked the three of them, "How is the injury?" ”

"Thank goodness they're all alive. It's just a pity for that mask. Kaede wiped her nose uncomfortably and subconsciously looked at the top of the platform. In just a few seconds, the dragon clan dependents who were originally standing there were gone, "strange...... What about the Golden Lion? ”

"Upper." Sen Luo pointed to the higher part of the mountain wall, and exhaled helplessly, the monster's trail was only a golden point of light in everyone's field of vision, "It's a shame that we still want to trap it with terrain, such a guy...... If it wants to, it can run away at any time. ”
