Chapter 31: The Leopard
In the grass, a cheetah lay on the soft grass, its eyes looking ahead, watching the four men walk towards him, their paws slowly scratching the ground.
This is a relatively safe area in the void space, the strength of the beast is generally not very strong, as the strongest person here, it is a well-deserved overlord, and there are very few people who dare to step into its territory.
But today someone broke the silence here, and the cheetah looked at the four people in front of him, except for the big middle-aged man, the others were no threat, after all, in front of the real psionics, these trainee psionics seemed too insignificant.
The ground is tinged with circles of earthy yellow, and it is difficult to spot these subtle differences unless you look very closely.
The four of them didn't notice it, but the teacher was also a person who had experienced ups and downs, and he felt that something was wrong.
"Stop," the teacher said, and the three of them quickly stopped, looking at the teacher behind them who was protecting them.
"Teacher, what's wrong?" Turning around, I saw that the teacher began to squat down slowly, put a golden glove on his hand, and carefully touched the ground.
After touching the ground for a few seconds, he stood up violently, "Retreat, enemy attack!"
Isn't it our exam, isn't it just a few beasts! Nangong Yuan didn't care a little, on the side, the cheetah poked out its head, now that it knew that these humans had discovered it, it was no longer hiding.
"It seems to be very powerful, let's withdraw first!" Bi Qingxue was a little worried, the feeling of a leopard was different from before, although they had also seen a lot of psionic master-level beasts along the way, but this one was obviously different.
There was a faint uneasiness in my heart.
"It's okay, I don't believe this guy can resist my musket!" Nangong Yuan took out a small tube from his pocket.
Bi Qingxue knew that this was the latest technology of the Haoyue Empire, and she had seen Nangong Yuan use this thing to kill a bear at the psionic master level with her own eyes.
Drawing out the musket, and on the side, the teacher hurriedly stopped, "No, don't fight back, let's retreat, with our strength, it's difficult to deal with that guy!"
But Nangong Yuan will not retreat, there is no word retreat in his dictionary, his self-confidence comes from the musket in his hand, which is claimed to be an artifact that can kill the king.
Could it be that even this little leopard can't be killed, thought to himself, aiming at the leopard's head and pulling the trigger with his fingers.
A crisp sound sounded, Bi Qingxue took a few steps back, and the bullet hit the head of the cheetah, and the cheetah was blasted out by the terrifying impact and fell out a few meters away.
"Look, now that technology is so advanced, what is a psionic master, he can be easily killed!"
The teacher did not speak, his eyes fixed on the fallen leopard, which lay quietly on the ground, its head blackened, the masterpiece of the musket just now.
It was a strange death, and although the musket hit its head, it did not show blood......
It seems like...... Not dead.
"Let's go back, it always feels a little bad" The teacher said hesitantly, and Nangong Yuan glanced at the leopard, it had its eyes closed, and it didn't look dead.
He took gunpowder out of his pocket, filled his powder gun, and fired a few more shots at the leopard's head.
Seeing that the leopard didn't make any moves, his eyes looked to the side, and the two girls already had the intention of going back, and said, "Okay, let's go back!"
The moment they turned around, countless spikes suddenly appeared on the ground.
The teacher was not slow to react, and his feet slashed to the ground, and the spikes were shattered, and they turned back sharply, only to see that the leopard had stood up, and the eyes of the pitch-black head were particularly terrifying, and it pounced violently.
Its target is not two men, their strength is too strong, and it is difficult to fight on their own, but these two girls are different, they are powerless and weaker
......
"Hey, what's wrong with you, can you still go?" Meng Ling sat beside him, the faint fragrance on her body made him sober up a little, looked around, and asked, "Where are we now, how far is it from the academy?"
"According to perception, it will take five or six days to walk, but if we hurry, we can catch up with the teleportation passage back!" Meng Ling said, as a student of the academy, she has the ability to sense directions.
"Do you say that the safe area of the school is safe enough to ensure that no students have accidents?" asked a little worriedly, because he suddenly felt Bi Qingxue's message just now, which was a signal when his life was threatened.
Meng Ling hesitated for a few seconds, although she had also seen the safe area of the academy, but it was also three years ago, and said, "It should be said that it is indestructible, the teachers inside are all at the psionic master level, if it is not at the king level, it is difficult to break through this defense"
"There are no king-level beasts around?"
"How is this possible, if there is a king-level beast, how can the school set up a safe zone here" smiled and said, "What's wrong with you, your face is so bad today"
"I'm fine!" Meng said, cold sweat unconsciously broke out on his forehead, and the feeling of danger was slowly subsiding.
It would be nice if Allure was there, she should know what to do, or she could carve out this space and go to Bi Qingxue's side.
Meng Ling didn't ask anything anymore, since Meng Qiguo was fine, then they were going to set off.
......
Bi Qingxue only now found out that they had been separated from the team.
was chased and killed by the cheetah just now, she could only escape, and Whisper didn't know what was going on, but she also followed her all the time, running with her.
But fortunately, after running for more than ten minutes, the cheetah did not catch up, as if giving up on them, and they lay on their stomachs in a bush, carefully looking around.
"It seems to be gone" Bi Qingxue took a deep breath, this thing was really not something they could deal with, and whispered beside her, nodding slightly, holding an earthy yellow bead in her hand.
She took the beads and handed them to Bi Qingxue, as if she was going to hand them over to Bi Qingxue.
"What is this, what are you doing with it?" was a little puzzled, this earthy yellow bead seemed very ordinary, but it contained energy.
Whispering shook her head violently, and insisted on stuffing this thing into Bi Qingxue's hand, and didn't let her throw it away.
"It's a hassle not to be able to speak," sighed, "Is this thing precious?"
Whispering a nod.
"Did you get this from the leopard just now?"
Whispering or nodding.
"Well, I think I know why we were hunted by that cheetah, and it looks like this thing is useful to it!"
The latter two were not able to keep up, they were already trapped, just now, a yellow wall suddenly appeared around it, and this yellow wall was extremely hard, it should be the masterpiece of the cheetah, and the cheetah had come back and was lying outside.
"There is no blood on the cheetah, it seems that those two girls are fine, I can't escape the blame for this death!" The teacher said, he couldn't open this defensive shield, and looked at Nangong Yuan beside him, "Do you have any way?"
"If you can use a giant cannon, you should be able to easily shatter it," Nangong Yuan thought for a while and said.
"You bring the cannon with you?" said the teacher, "hurry up and dig a hole in the ground to get out of the way, and don't attract the attention of the cheetah."
