Darius and his men had left the valley, and now they were in a dense forest on the mountainside, Darius was half-crouched in the grass, and looking through the leaves, the lush and tall red pine and blue man trees were scattered in a disorderly manner, except for a few small foraging beasts, there was nothing suspicious.

He turned to Andrea beside him, "Ma'am, what do you perceive?" Why can't I see the enemy's tracks? ”

Andrea sat up strongly, the wound on her back tugged slightly, a look of pain appeared on her face, she stretched out her hand and pointed to the sky, "Your thinking is too solid, the enemy is in the sky, remind your subordinates not to be exposed, it may not be for us." ”

Darius gestured, then whistled to everyone not to act rashly, and he looked in the direction Andrea was pointing, trying to see a clue.

"It's strange that you can find me hidden, but you can't sense that thing in the sky, it seems that you are indeed not very sensitive to blood." Andrea's eyes flashed with intense curiosity, and she looked at Darius carefully, "Where did you learn this skill?" It seems like only the bloodborns who hide in the dark and live by sucking blood do, but you're obviously not. ”

"It's just natural ability, but now is not the time to care about that." As time passed, Darius still failed to find any trace of the enemy, but he did not suspect that Andrea was lying to him, as he also sensed danger.

It's hard to say for sure, but an experienced warrior will have an extremely familiar feeling of danger after countless battles, and he can't make any sense of it, and he can't say why, anyway, when it comes, he will naturally feel it.

"What the hell is in the sky, Andrea? The uneasiness in my heart grew stronger. ”

"I don't know."

"Don't know?" Darius was stunned.

Sensing the surprise in Darius's tone, Andrea said angrily, "Why should I know? Didn't you find nothing after searching for a long time? I just sensed the danger a little earlier than you, and you don't have to think about it, if I knew all the specific things, I would still be hurt like this? ”

If West dared to talk to him in such a tone, then he would have cleaned him up without hesitation, but Darius couldn't do anything about this tsundere woman. West stayed silently, he didn't know that his captain compared him to Andrea, he just saw Darius deflated, so he took the initiative to ask: "Boss, why don't I use a spell to detect it?" ”

Before Darius could reply, Andrea was the first to ask West, "Which school are you a spellcaster?" How many rings of spells can be cast? ”

"This ...... In the next, I didn't get the official rune mage status in the next, but the rune spells in the three rings, I will have some. ”

Hearing West's answer, Andrea smiled disdainfully, lowered her voice and said: "An apprentice who has no official status, so I can avoid your detection that night even in a seriously injured state, and now I and your captain can't detect the enemy we encounter, and you rashly use spells, doesn't it just reveal our location?" ”

West's face flushed, although he was a rather cheeky man, but being mercilessly accused by a woman still aroused his shame, and he was about to speak again, but Darius covered his mouth.

"I ...... Woo......"

Darius's premonition grew stronger, and he covered Vest's mouth with one hand to prevent him from making a sound, and with the other he held the axe across his chest, ready to respond to emergencies.

A slightly fishy wind blew through the dense forest, and the smell of nothingness reached Darius's nostrils, and he suddenly looked out at the canopy of the woods, the trees of this forest were very close together, and the huge canopies were stacked on top of each other, and when seen from the air, it was like a green carpet floating in the air, and at this moment countless leaves were falling from it, and then he saw the most memorable scene since he came into this world.

At the moment, the huge snake head broke through the canopy of the tree and leaned towards the ground, unlike the ordinary snake winding around the tree, it actually landed directly like a lift.

Yes, landing.

It was only when its body was out of the canopy and completely exposed to Darius' gaze that he could see the serpent in its entirety.

On its hideous triangular head, a pair of blood-colored eyes shone with a breathtaking light, its mouth slightly open, its sharp teeth covered its entire mouth, black scales covered its majestic body, and on both sides of its body, two pairs of huge wings of white feathers flashed continuously, which was why it appeared in front of Darius in such a posture.

Feathered Serpent!

A creature that only exists in myths and legends, even though it exudes danger and horror all the time, Darius can't help but marvel at its form. It was an unimaginably magical creature, and it used its wings to glide close to the canopy, the dense canopy blocking his view, no wonder it had not been able to be spotted before.

No matter how confident he is in himself, Darius will not take the initiative to fight such an existence, that is not called self-confidence but brain-dead, he even tries to keep his breathing as steady as possible to reduce the possibility of being discovered. West beside him swallowed hard, not daring to make any big moves.

Damn, how could you come across such a thing.

Darius searched through the memories in his head, never hearing of such a creature in the mountains from any other soldier. Isn't this something that only exists in the Desert Kingdom? Why did you end up here for no apparent reason?

According to his sight, the feathered serpent was over fifty meters in size, and although it was not as exaggerated as the legend that it could spread its wings to cover the sky, it was also shocking, and the huge creature was staying not far from them, and the scarlet letter was constantly swallowing.

Darius stared intently at the Feathered Serpent, and though it didn't look at it, for some reason, he felt like it had locked onto itself.

Suddenly, a thought crossed his mind like a bolt of lightning.

Snake?

Nobuko who forks left and right?

Darius suddenly shuddered, because people in this world might not study it, but after being exposed to popular science education in another world, he suddenly remembered something very important - snakes do not rely on their eyes to lock on to their targets.

The snake's tongue is its olfactory organ! Just as humans have left and right ears, snakes use forked tongues to determine the direction of the source of scents, and their tongues have evolved to be used to detect biothermal functions. Therefore, they must stick out their tongues at all times, seek prey and discern their environment!

This time it was Darius' turn to swallow, their hiding in front of the Feathered Serpent was a joke, they had already been discovered, and the grass used for concealment had no effect on the monster.

Darius removed the hand from West's mouth, and then, under his stunned gaze, stood up.

"Boss! You...... You...... You......? ”

"West, we've been discovered a long time ago, it's useless to hide, it's targeting me, you can't help anything, I'll go and lure it away, and you take Andrea to Lord Bard in Harland Canyon as quickly as possible."

Seeing that West was still trying to speak, Darius rebuked him and blocked his words.

"It's an order! Now, you act fast! You guys don't have any role here. ”

The huge Feathered Serpent had apparently noticed the movement here, and it had been silently observing the place. Darius didn't know what it was for, but he wasn't interested in trying it, so he grabbed his axe and turned back like the wind in the path he had taken to evacuate from Rhodes' corridor.

The feathered serpent let out a strange chirp, the strange sound wave shook people's hearts, it obviously sensed the distance of Darius, so its two pairs of huge wings shook, and its huge body flew in the direction of Darius's escape, ignoring the other people who remained in place.

Seeing Darius and Quetzalcoatl disappear into the distance one after the other, De Mons, who had never dared to act rashly, ran to West's side.

The experienced soldier still had horror on his face at the moment: "What's going on? Why did the captain show up? Why didn't you convince him to lure the monster away alone? ”

West shook his head in despair, although when the Feathered Serpent flew past him, he had the idea of releasing a spell to help Darius, but looking at the terrifying monster, he completely lost the courage to cast a spell.

"I don't know, Brother Demons." There was bitterness in Vest's voice, a mixture of chagrin at his own cowardice and fear of the enemy's arrogance. "The boss told us to take this lady and retreat quickly, this monster is not something we can deal with."
