Chapter 564: Shapeshifter
"What the hell is going on?!"
Lu Li frowned, staring at the flying knife in his hand, his face becoming extremely ugly in just a few seconds. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
He couldn't believe that in just a minute or two after the handover vigil, a level 20 silver adventurer and a person with the same strength comparable to a silver adventurer disappeared for no reason.
Just when he wanted to turn around and wake everyone up to ask for clarification, he suddenly saw a dazzling white arc flash not far ahead!
You don't have to ask to know that the arc is 100% released.
Without having time to think about it, Lu Li ran directly to the crown dragon that belonged to him, jumped on the saddle and ordered: "Quick! Run me at full speed in that direction!"
"Whew!"
Awakened, the crown dragon opened its mouth and screamed, and immediately ran at full speed in the direction of his fingers, and with its strong hind limbs and good body coordination, it accelerated to forty kilometers per hour in just a few seconds!
You must know that this is not a smooth road, but a primeval jungle of all kinds of vines, tree roots, and stones, even the best off-road vehicles cannot drive twenty meters away, but the crown dragon can walk on the ground and automatically avoid all obstacles, no wonder it is called a favorite mount by people from other worlds.
If it were in normal times, Lu Li would definitely have a good feel for this galloping running speed, but now he was so anxious that his mind was full of thoughts about how to get to the accident site quickly, so he kept urging his mount to accelerate.
After running wildly for about a few minutes, he finally saw Meow Lori and Xiu Xiu, who were holding long knives more than sixty meters in front of him, were facing a giant bear that was more than six meters tall, and at the feet of the giant bear was Adonis, who had fallen into a coma.
Obviously, the reason why a man and a beast disappeared for no reason was because they took the initiative to pursue.
"Meow?!Uncle!Come and help!This bear knocked Adonis unconscious!And want to drag him away!" Meow Lori undoubtedly noticed Lu Li's arrival, and shouted at the top of her voice.
"Don't worry! it can't run away with me!"
Lu Li didn't even wait for Guanlong to slow down, jumped directly from the saddle, rolled on the spot and took out the sniper rifle, stuffed a twenty-millimeter armor-piercing bullet into the chamber, and entered the sniper mode.
Now, if the bear dares to make any move, he can immediately shoot bullets carrying the torn wind, killing them on the spot.
Zizizi......
Sensing that the power of the wind began to gather rapidly, the smart Xiuxiu immediately realized that his master was about to launch a fatal blow, so he released a strong electric current very cooperatively, intending to paralyze the giant bear in an instant, creating the perfect time to attack.
As for Meow Lori, the whole person looms, as if she will escape into the shadows in the next second, stabbing the sharp long knife into the fatal part of the opponent.
Just as several people exchanged colors with each other and were about to do it together, the giant bear suddenly shrugged his shoulders in a very humane way, and then spoke......
"You guys are really amazing, I approached so carefully, and I was still discovered. But it doesn't matter, since I'm discovered, I'll beat you up in the open, as long as I can complete the deal anyway. ”
"Meow, you...... Can you talk?a talking bear ?!!" Meow Lori's eyes widened, and her furry tail kept swaying from side to side, showing the mood of her master at the moment.
Lu Li even forgot to aim in a messy way, staring at the bear face through the green light fed back from the night vision device, trying to figure out whether the world was too crazy or if he had auditory hallucinations.
"No, little cat girl, the bear you see is not the real me, but the transformed ......," he said, and the strong bear's whole body changed drastically, and it took less than a second for him to return to his human form.
However, unlike ordinary humans, his eyes shone a strange red light, and his pupils were not normally round, but beast-like vertical pupils.
Meow Lori was obviously startled by the wild aura emanating from the other party's body, and hurriedly took a few steps back, her tail frying nervously.
Xiuxiu, who is also very sensitive, also increases the release of electrical energy, forming a dazzling arc on the surface of the body to protect itself.
Although the other party's performance is full of conspiracy, he is a person with intelligence, and since he is a human being, he can use communication to solve problems.
So after a few seconds of hesitation, Lu Li got up from the ground and cautiously asked, "Who are you, why did you sneak into our camp and take Adonis away?"
"My name is Byrne, Byrne Comry, one of the few remaining shapeshifters in the North. Don't worry, I'm not going to kill anyone, I'm just being asked to teach you a lesson, especially to leave a permanent mark on you......"
As the last word fell, Byrne immediately put his hand in his mouth and whistled.
Moment!
Behind the stout trees, a pair of eyes glowing with green light suddenly appeared, slowly surrounding the two people and one beast from all directions.
Among them are packs of wild wolves, tigers and leopards that like to be alone, and even the Nemean lions, a special species favored by the magical element, numbering as many as four or five hundred, will rush up and bite their prey at the slightest command.
But Lu Li had long been accustomed to being besieged by hordes of monsters in the dungeon, so instead of fear, he frowned and asked, "Transfigurer, is it your ability, or is it your profession?"
Byrne looked Lu Li up and down with a slightly appreciative eye, and after about a minute, he smiled and approved: "Hehe, you are very good, you can still stay calm in the situation of being surrounded by many people."
Well, out of apologies to you, I answer your two questions.
First of all, shapeshifters are not abilities or professions, but a race, a very old and ostracized race by civilized society.
We are originally indigenous people of the Black Forest, and we have lived in harmony with the flora and fauna here for generations, without much supernatural ability, and the only thing we can do is to stay close to the animals.
Later, after the end of the war between gods and demons, a small group of defeated demon kings came to the depths of the forest, and among them were two beautiful women who fell in love with our peaceful and quiet life and chose to actively integrate into it.
They each marry the hunters of the village and give birth to offspring with magical powers, which are to transform into all kinds of wild beasts.
As the bloodline spreads, more and more of us can shapeshift, and as a result, the Demon King's army has been snooped, and they want us to join their army and launch a counterattack against the human world, but we who love peace choose to refuse.
Without incident, the war broke out, and although my people were very brave and tried their best to fight, they failed.
The powerful army of the Demon King is simply not something we can compete with without even decent weapons.
Most of the clan was slaughtered, the rest were forcibly taken into slavery, and only a few escaped.
To commemorate that war, to honor the memory of our enslaved compatriots, we call ourselves shapeshifters.
As for the man who entrusted me with a lesson, his name is Gerald, a high-ranking officer in the border fortress......"
