Chapter 158: Manticore?
Chapter 158: Manticore?
"Is that so!" Aaron nodded, and suddenly Sarah's eyes lit up, and a figure appeared in her mind, and she casually shouted, "Is it her?"
"Who?"
"Kitsune, a kitsune who knows how to use fire magic. By the way, judging from the color of her coat, it should be from the Firefox clan, and these two dead golden war leopards seem to be in awe of her!"
Aaron and Ben glanced at each other, the fox girl, it turned out to be a fox man again, could it be that this series of things is related to the fox man?
Aaron thought for a moment, and instead of continuing to dwell on this issue, he pointed to the most urgent matter at the moment, and said, "No matter what causes the conflict between the two of you, I think the most important thing now is to leave the Ice and Snow Grassland as soon as possible. If you're okay, I think we're going to start our way now!"
Hearing Aaron's words, Ben Han smiled and said, "My lord, I know that there is a way to leave the snow of the ice and snow grassland in the shortest possible time. ”
Ben's words made Aaron's eyes light up, and he secretly thought that it seemed that the price of saving the lynx this time was not great. But before Aaron had time to be happy, Sarah frowned and said, "Wait, you're talking about the bed of the Young-haired River that has dried up?"
When Ben nodded excitedly to say yes, Sarah shook her head and sighed, "No, you must not go there!"
"Why?" Ben wondered, he didn't know how many times he had walked through that dry riverbed in the shortcut interception caravan, and he couldn't understand why he couldn't go now!
"If it was a month ago, it would have been an excellent secret path, but now it has been discovered by the Golden War Leopard, and troops were sent to monitor it half a month ago. Sarah looked a little tired.
"Hell!" the Pigs cursed.
Just as everyone was studying other feasible methods, Aaron's soul suddenly moved, and the corpse demon who understood the spirit and soul most thoroughly came with a message: a powerful force has arrived nearby!
Although Aaron has also advanced to the ninth level of strength, after all, he does not concentrate on cultivating spiritual power like the corpse demon, and his sense of the environment is still slightly inferior. He quickly glanced around, except for the still white snow, there was not even half a ghost, where did some powerful creature come from?
"Since you're here, why are you still cowering and don't dare to show up, do you want me to invite you out?" After speaking, two balls of blood suddenly rose from Aaron's hands like flames, and the aura of danger and madness suddenly emanated.
Now that the corpse demon has been warned, it must not be created out of nothing. There are no suspicious traces on the snow, but what about under the snow?
Sure enough, as soon as Aaron's words fell, there was a sudden explosion in the snow on the right side of the team, the snow was flying, and an orange-red figure rose from under the snow.
It turned out that Yvette had a great interest in the mysterious and powerful Ranger after listening to the words of the old fox man Sharna. But then her heart was beating wildly, because Aaron's destination was the Starrainbow Lake, and the Black Lynx's territory was also in the Starry Mountains, so if they met on the road, it would most likely ruin her plan.
Now, after giving Sharna some advice, Yvette chased in the direction where the leopard man and Salad had disappeared. Following the mottled trail left by the leopard man and the lynx, Yvette hurried all the way, and saw two leopard men being beaten to death by each other in the distance. Unwilling, Yvette dived under the thick snow, but in the end, he couldn't hide it from the corpse demon who was extremely soul-conscious.
"Giggles, honorable ......" Before Yvette could finish speaking, the two undead servants had already pounced, and the cold corpse power enveloped a radius of hundreds of meters.
The fox is suspicious by nature, how could he be so easily attacked by Aaron? I saw the fox girl's figure flickering again and again, and in the blink of an eye, the distance of forty or fifty meters was widened.
Alun was stunned in his heart, and secretly thought: What a quick reaction, I knew that I would use the spirit storm to sneak attack!
"I hate it to death, you are so ruthless, you want to attack me when you meet for the first time, what does Yvette have to offend the rangers?" Yvette shook his fox tail slightly, and the strong charm was difficult to resist even if it was dozens of meters away. Except for Ben, the other Pigs on the side were glazed over, drooling, and hot.
"Hmph, it turned out to be a fox man, I thought it was a bitch who wanted to sneak up and attack me!" Alan snorted.
"Since there was a misunderstanding, then we will be separated. But don't treat people like this next time we meet! Yvette can't bear such a violent ......" In the middle of the words, Yvette's figure flashed again and again, and disappeared from everyone's field of vision.
The fox girl's actions stunned everyone for a while, and the manticore lion reluctantly circled around the neighborhood for nothing, so he had to land at Aaron's feet and roar a few times.
"Now that our whereabouts have been discovered by the fox people, and I believe that the leopard people will chase after us soon, I think we should hurry up!" said Arun.
The crowd, whose faces were equally heavy, nodded in agreement, and the team began to speed up their march towards the northwest.
Backed by the Qatari wilderness and facing the Alps, the snowy steppes stretch from the northern wilderness swamps of the Syrian coast to the polar ice fields in the north, crisscrossed by countless mountains and rivers, and dotted with thousands of lakes and lakes. In this harsh and barren land, countless races have been bred, and the orcs have been cultivated with a fierce and straightforward personality.
At this time, after the fox girl Yvette discovered her whereabouts, Aaron and the others did not plan to hide their whereabouts anymore, but ran wildly to grab time with the other party. Except for a few large strong clans and mountains and rivers that need to be detoured, the general route of the team is basically straight.
Over the past few days, the team has encountered seven or eight blockades, and in addition to the loss of six Pigs, it has to be said that Aaron was lucky.
When they once again escaped some tribal interception and made their way to a snowy mountain, Aaron paused the party to recuperate. However, after days of running wildly, each of the Pigs who had never traveled so far in such a short time was pale. Even this page couldn't help but fall to the ground and retch at the snow. Running long distances in a snowstorm is indeed not something that anyone can bear.
On the other hand, Katie, the little lynx, was still pink and did not react in any discomfort, because she was riding on the back of a manticore all the way......
After filling his stomach casually, Aaron gave an order, and the team hit the road again. Although everyone's face was very ugly, everyone's heart was full of confidence in escaping the pursuit of the golden war leopard, because the end of the ice and snow grassland was still about to come out. At the current desperate pace, it will take less than two days to cross the savannah and enter the Qatari wilderness.
But less than half a day after the procession marched, several light trails shining with various colors of brilliance swept by like arrows. When the light trail stopped, there were several orcs, who paused for a moment where Aaron's team had stayed for a moment, and then chased after them in the direction where the team was traveling.
These orcs were not the Golden War Leopard clan, but the powerhouses who were alarmed by the powerful corpse qi released by the undead servant corpses along the way. Judging from the dazzling degree of the light track, their strength has reached at least level eight, and some of them are even at the peak of level nine.
The breath of humans and undead was easily known to them, these alien races entered the land of orcs so unscrupulously, how could the warlike orcs let these outsiders walk on their land so easily? If it weren't for the fact that Aaron and his party had a lot of Pigs to cover up their smell, I am afraid that before the golden leopard arrived, Aaron and the others would have been stopped by these strong men.
Under the path of the two undead servants, the heavy snow was thinned one after another, and the pressure between the walking of the Pigs behind was somewhat reduced, but it was still difficult.
Suddenly, large swaths of moving silver objects appeared on the endless snowfield. Without waiting for Aaron's command, the manticore, who felt the aura of danger, first roared uneasily, and his melodious and low roar was quickly answered.
"Woo-woo-"
"Oh shit, it's a snow wolf!" the Pigs and the Lynx changed their faces when they heard this, and their dead expressions suddenly reminded Aaron of the moment when he invited the Pigs to lead the way.
Snow wolves, big packs of snow wolves! no! no! are thousands of snow wolves!
At this time, there was a commotion in the ranks, and the Pigs stood there with their faces as if they were dead, they did not know what to do now! Encountering snow wolves in this open snowfield, all resistance and struggle were superfluous.
Aaron immediately jumped onto the manticore's thick back, and with a hello, Sarah, Ben, and the two servants jumped on the manticore's back. The manticore roared, and under the flapping of its wings, it soared upwards with the rising air current, and was able to dodge the rapidly approaching snow wolves.
Only pity those Pige robbers, under the screams one after another, the stumps flew sideways, and the corpses were all over the field.
Ben, who was able to escape, saw such a tragic situation below, and couldn't help but feel sad and wept bitterly in the sky.
"Whew-"
Snow wolves spread over the mountains occupied almost every inch of the land below, and these ferocious creatures seemed to be alarmed by the aura of the superior of the manticore, and many snow wolves began to make a commotion. Not to be outdone, the powerful wolf king roared into the sky, and the heaven-shattering roar soared straight into the sky, and the thick clouds unexpectedly became loose in the roar of the wolf king.
After the wolf king's roar, the wolves seemed to have been restrained in some way, and they let out a wolf howl into the sky, and the deafening wolf howl filled this vast snowfield, and even the earth seemed to tremble slightly with fear.
Aaron didn't dare to stay in the sky any longer, his heart moved at will, and the manticore turned back the way he came. Even if a few of them have great strength, in front of this terrifying snow wolf pack, even if they stay for a few more moments, they will definitely have no chance of survival.
