Chapter 163: The White-Haired Giant Ape
Next to the creek.
A sika deer looked around cautiously for a moment, and then took a few steps to look at it, slowly approached the stream, lowered its head and licked the water.
Rustling!
At this moment, a pitch-black tiger-type blood beast suddenly burst out, and a vertical leap had already appeared next to the sika deer.
Because of its huge weight, for a moment, the ground by the stream seemed to tremble slightly.
A behemoth suddenly appeared beside him, and the sika deer wanted to run away in horror, but this black tiger-type blood beast stretched out its front paws, like a hammer, and slapped it down.
Click!
The sika deer's head was directly slapped and bent abnormally, the sika deer's body rolled a few times, fell next to the stream, and the black giant tiger lowered its head and picked it up and went in one direction.
Shortly after it left, a figure appeared from the shadow of a tree and quickly followed, and it was none other than Gray.
He guessed that this black giant tiger was hunting for the blood beast that could control the corpse of the blood beast, so as long as he followed behind the black giant tiger, he should be able to find the blood beast that could control the corpse of the blood beast.
Following behind this black giant tiger, it took about ten minutes to walk through the dense woods.
Suddenly, Gray dodged into the shadow of a tree, and the next moment he hid in the shadow of the tree, a yellow-haired blood beast suddenly appeared.
This blood beast has slender and strong limbs, sharp teeth protruding from between its lips, and a sharp horn on its head, just from its appearance, you can feel that this blood beast is not easy to mess with.
It walked towards the tree where Gray was hiding, getting closer and closer to Gray.
Gray's hand rested on the hilt of his sword, staring nervously at the blood beast, and if the blood beast made any unusual moves, he would immediately strike and attack the blood beast first.
Finally, the blood beast reached the closest distance from Gray, not even more than three meters, and Gray held his breath, for fear that his breathing would be heard by the blood beast.
Fortunately, the blood beast did not notice him, and walked past the tree where he was hiding, turning its back to him.
He considered whether to sneak attack, this angle, he was sure to hit the opponent's vital point before the opponent reacted, but in the end, he resisted and couldn't startle the snake.
It wasn't until the yellow-haired blood beast was no longer visible that Gray stepped out of the shadows of the tree.
I wanted to look for the black giant tiger, but I found that the black giant tiger was gone.
However, he didn't care, and continued to lurk in the direction of the last black giant tiger he saw, and in his estimation, it should be very close to the location of the blood beast.
Because the yellow-haired blood beast that passed by just now was also a blood beast that could not be detected by infrared perception, that is, this was also a blood beast corpse.
Now that he was able to encounter the corpses of other blood beasts that had been manipulated, it was not far from the lair of the blood beasts.
Sure enough, minutes later, he found his target.
In a weedy glade, eight blood beasts lay lazily in it, enjoying the not-so-hot autumn sun.
Among them, there is a tiger-type blood beast with black hair all over its body.
There are slender and sturdy blood beasts covered in purple spots.
There is a blood beast wrapped in earthy yellow scale armor, which looks like a huge rock from a distance.
……
Gray's gaze was the first to look at a blood beast surrounded by other blood beasts.
It was an ape-like blood beast, more than two meters tall, significantly smaller than the iron gibbon that Gray had hunted.
In addition, the hair on the surface of the body is not black, but white without the slightest pigment, just like the corpse hair grown from the mold of a corpse, a miserable white.
The reason why Gray noticed it for the first time was because this blood beast was eating at this time, and what it was eating was the sika deer that the black tiger-type blood beast had taken away just now.
"It's alive!"
Although it looks more like a corpse than other blood beasts, when Gray's infrared perception detects the other party, it is unexpectedly found that the other party can be sensed by infrared perception, obviously, this is a living blood beast.
"The blood beast with the ability to control corpses should be this blood beast."
The other seven blood beasts, which Gray had already explored, were just blood beast corpses, and it was obvious that the blood beast with the ability to control the corpse of the blood beast should be this ape-type blood beast covered in white hair.
"There are actually seven blood beasts by the side to protect you, do you want to do it?"
Looking at the ape-type blood beast, Gray frowned.
The ability to control the corpse of the blood beast is undoubtedly strong, and if he gets it, his strength will increase greatly.
But on the other hand, the risk is also extremely high, and it is not ordinarily difficult to assassinate a blood beast in the protection of seven blood beasts.
If he misses, if after killing, other blood beasts can still move, then he is in danger.
"Try once, and if it doesn't work, run away immediately."
Eventually, Gray decided to give it a try.
He has the ability to shadow, and if it is at night, even if he is protected by many blood beasts, it is entirely possible to lurk in front of this blood beast.
Moreover, even if he fails, he has a good chance of escaping, after all, the night is his home field with the ability to shadow.
The entire forest was pitch black, and as long as it hid somewhere, the other blood beasts would not want to find it.
Unless among these blood beasts, there is a blood beast that can see through the shadows, but there should be no such blood beast, otherwise, it is impossible for him to lurk here.
A few hours later, night fell.
A little moonlight sprinkled down, obscured by dense branches, and could not penetrate into the forest.
The forest was dark, as if it had been obscured by a large black cloth.
"Only this once, retreat immediately after failure!"
In the shadow of a tree, Gray's figure stood up quietly, and said secretly in his heart.
He looked at the glade in the forest, and the ape-like blood beast with white hair was sleeping in the glade at this time.
Around it, the seven blood beasts from before were located around it, faintly protecting it.
Without making a sound, Gray slowly leaned over, getting closer and closer to the ape-like blood beast.
50 meters.
40 meters.
30 meters.
20 meters.
Smack!
At this moment, suddenly, a blood beast stood up and sucked hard with its nose, as if it had found something, but it seemed to be unsure.
"Can't get any closer."
Gray knew that it was the smell on his body that caught the attention of the blood beast.
Although the shadow ability can hide his form and make him merge with the shadows, it can't hide his scent.
"Looks like we have to do it here!"
Taking a deep breath, Gray began to secretly mobilize the blood power in his body.
The next moment, the Blood Beast's ability, the Ice Wind Blade, was used by him.
In the calm and windless forest, a sudden gust of wind howled, and then a slightly crystalline cyan wind blade appeared, quickly slashing towards the sleeping ape-like beast.
Swish!
The distance of twenty meters was too short, and the ape-type blood beast that sensed the movement just raised its head, and the wind blade was already approaching.
Burst!
The Wind Blade easily split open the ape-type blood beast's chest, deeply embedded in the ape-type blood beast's body, leaving a huge wound.
At the same time, a cold force suddenly centered on the wound and spread around, and the ape-type blood beast's body was rapidly frozen.
Whew—
The injured ape-type blood beast roared and gave the order to attack, and although Gray was not visible, all the blood beasts jumped up in unison and pounced in the direction of the wind blade.
"No, it didn't kill."
Without the slightest hesitation, Gray turned and left, and the Wind Wolf's speed was used to his limit.
Since he has already done it, but he has not been able to kill the other party, then he can only give up, although the ability to control the corpse of the blood beast is good, it is not worth his life for this.
Smack!
However, just a few dozen meters after he ran out, he suddenly heard a series of heavy objects falling to the ground behind him.
He turned back in confusion, only to find that the blood beasts that were chasing after him had all fallen straight down as if they were drunk.
