Chapter 29: Beast Tide

Saza plucked a hack fruit from a low fruit tree, wiped it a little, and stuffed it into his mouth, this well-hydrated and sweet fruit was truly a gift from the childless moon. According to www.biquge.info previous bet with Jonathan, he had spent several days of his free time in the Quekis Mountains. Although he only hunted some half-demonic beasts to pass the time for a few days, as time went by, he had to admit that the effect of this cultivation method was indeed much more significant than reading books.

After casually throwing the remaining half of the Hack Fruit to the harmless long-tailed squirrel on the side, he stood up and was almost rested.

He had his eye on a sunlight ground worm, which was probably the most semi-demonic beast he had killed in a few days. This semi-demonic beast, although it is called a ground worm, it is definitely not a worm, it looks more like an enlarged version of an earthworm, yes, an earthworm larger than a dog.

Although the ground worm spends most of its time hiding in its burrow, it will occasionally burrow out of the ground and poke out half of its body above the surface to receive the sun, which is needed by this cold-blooded creature to regulate its body temperature. But when it's sunbathing, it's also the easiest time to kill it.

The two wind blades hit the long body of the ground worm, its eyesight was not good, and its bean-sized eyes could not provide vision in the daylight, so even if the attack came from directly in front of it, it would not react immediately. The wind blade hit the ground worm without any suspense, but only one scar was left in the two paths.

The body of the ground worm that can be twisted at will seems to be soft, but in fact, there is a thick layer of skin on the surface, and there are well-developed muscles under the skin, and the two wind blades have no other effect except to provoke it. It roared back into the burrow.

Of course, Saza didn't expect to be able to kill the Earth Worm with two wind blades, and he was already ready for the next battle.

With a muffled sound, a hole suddenly cracked in the ground, and a large mouth of blood burst out of it, and it gnawed at Saza fiercely. But Saza, as if he had expected it, dodged the attack with a flash of one step ahead of it, and the wind blade that had been prepared in his hand was also cast, as if there was no need to aim at all, and this time it also combined with inertia casting, shooting a total of four wind blades. The whole action was done in one go, as if it had been rehearsed in advance. The four wind blades struck precisely the scar from the previous first attack. The first wind blade covered the scar, and the epidermis had been deeply torn open to reveal the blood-red muscles inside, and then the second wind blade tore a hole in the muscle, and the third wind blade struck, going deep along the hole in the muscle, and the fourth wind blade was belated, and the ground worm howled in pain and retracted into the crypt.

A round of attacks seemed to flow smoothly, but Saza couldn't help but shake his head secretly, of course he knew what his problem was. Of the four Wind Blades, only the first two have acceptable damage, capable of breaking through the skin and muscles of the ground worms. The Wind Blade cast by the inertial spell only exerts 60% of its power, otherwise the Earth Worm would have died. This can only show that he has not fully mastered the skill of inertial casting, and even the simplest zero-order magic cannot achieve 100% power of inertial casting, and this is still the effect after a few days of cultivation, and the magic played by inertial casting before this is only about 50% powerful.

It seems that it really needs to be practiced more than just reading, Saza thought to himself. He looked at the ground with his Magical Eye, yes, he had had it open from the very beginning of the battle, because a few days ago he had discovered that the Magical Eye could see through the obstacles of many physical objects and see the nature of magic. This trait can be used very well in battle, for example, after he launched an attack with the Wind Blade just now, the magic remnants of the Wind Blade are still on the Earth Worm, so he can use the Magic Eye to see the activities of the magic remnants underground. That's why he was able to dodge the attack of the ground worm in time, and accurately hit the scar left at the beginning. In fact, he likes to hunt ground insects, that is, to practice his control of the magic eye, and now he can accurately see the magic remnants in movement about two meters underground. I have to say that these big bugs are really unlucky.

The most troublesome thing about hunting a ground insect is that it will hide underground or run away after being injured, and Saza has learned this experience after several days of hunting. Sure enough, the damn brute was running again, and it would be a waste of time to let it escape. Saza didn't hesitate to chase after it, it couldn't run far, once the crust of that layer broke, its body could no longer withstand the pressure of the underground rock formation for a long time, and it would naturally drill out of the ground if it ran a certain distance.

Tracking all the way, and finally when the magic remnants were about to disappear completely, the ground worm couldn't hold on to burrowing out of the ground. Saza finished it cleanly. "Damn, you... You... Rather... Keep running. "He stomped viciously on the corpse of the ground worm, and ran so far that he was tired.

"Whew..."

There was a faint beastly cry in his ears, and Saza was sure that it was not a ground worm, and he turned his head to find the two giant thorns next to him who were mating. "!" he cursed.

The gaze of the two giant thorns shifted to him, especially the eyes of the male giant spur had climbed bloodshot, not to know how Saza recognized it as a male. "Uh... What I just said was that you guys are going to fuck, so I won't bother. Do you understand?" Saza clasped his palms together and said with a smile, "Then I'll assume that you understand, don't send it, don't send it, goodbye." ”

As soon as he turned around, an angry roar erupted from behind. Saza screamed for his life, and ran away, the two giant spikes were not something he could deal with, and the two giant thorns were probably even angrier than the last one, and it was impossible to expect them to give up the pursuit. But now there is really nothing to do but run, and now I can only hold on for a while, maybe I can meet other people who are hunting. Persistence is victory, he said to himself.

After running for a while, Saza stopped, to hell with Victory, he would rather be stabbed to death than run again. He leaned against a copper-hearted tree and gasped as he watched the two giant thorns approach.

What gave Saza a glimmer of life was that the female giant thorn didn't seem to want to make a move, it just watched from behind, and only the male giant thorn showed its dark yellow canine teeth.

"Single... Singled me out... Afraid of you?" said Saza to himself, if it was just a giant thorn, he would have the strength to fight. But before he could catch his breath, the giant spur had already pounced. The second time he faced this kind of demonic beast, Saza already had some experience to speak of, at least the first attack of the giant thorn did not hit him, and the giant thorn firmly penetrated into the outer layer of the copper heart tree, and the giant thorn was difficult to move for a while.

Saza had a successful smile on his face, his left hand flicking the wind blade, and his right hand forming a magic circle. After making the cut, his wind blade was no longer as useless as it was when he first faced the giant thorn, and at least he could cut off one of the prisks on its body.

Saza had already shaved off a small piece of the prisk on its left side when the giant thorn pulled it out, though he didn't think he might be able to shave all of it.

Although the female Ru on the side did not come forward to help, she kept yelling there, as if she was cheering for the male. Inspired by the male, he rushed towards Saza as if he had been beaten with two catties of chicken blood.

Saza was about to dodge, but found that the thorns in his body rolled directly like a pellet, and at this speed he was almost immune, and the magic that his right hand had been preparing was also completed at this time, and it seemed that there was only one fight.

"Wind Tooth," Saza raised his right hand, this was a small result of his cultivation in the past few days, in fact, he had not completely put aside the study of the nature of magic in the past few days, such as what he was doing now. Wind Tooth was originally a magic that he couldn't cast independently for the time being, but by changing the magic array and reducing the magic proportionally, he could still cast Wind Tooth, although it was only a simple version of Wind Tooth. "Crack!"

The thorn balls that rolled in the direction of the wind rushed over, and this time the wind was far less powerful than the wind cast last time with the assistance of the Wind Demon Core, so the range and power of the attack were also very limited. But if it's just attacking one part, one that has just been stripped of the prismatic defenses, that should still be enough. Under Saza's control, the fangs of the wind gnawed wildly at the spineless part of the male on the left side, biting through its skin, gnawing its bones, and chewing its internal organs.

Eventually, the spike stopped rolling and stopped in front of Saza.

Saza wasn't absolutely sure that it would work, but he did! Then he remembered that there was another female watching him, and that he had just run out of magic when he cast Wind Fang, and the scene became solemn again. But the next moment, something astonishing happened, and the female Ru turned around and ran away without hesitation!

Saza didn't react for a while, could it be that he scared it away?"Hahahaha! Brutes are brutes, and if there are ten or eight heads, I'll be too big for you to run away!"

A sound caused Saza to look back, only to find a large area of semi-demonic beasts and demonic beasts running towards him, and he couldn't help but smack himself fiercely.

However, what he didn't expect was that this group of beasts composed of various semi-demonic beasts and demonic beasts was completely uninterested in him, and all of them ignored him running on their own, and the direction they ran in was beyond the Quekis Mountains.

Coming back to his senses, looking at the endless stream of beasts, Saza realized what the beasts were doing, they were fleeing, to be precise, just obeying instinct. There is a technical term in the book for this phenomenon: animal tide. And there is only one thing that can cause the beast tide, and that is the birth of the beast king.

Just as humans divide the Chinkis Mountains, shallow, middle, and deep, this differentiation makes sense. The shallow area is the habitat of beasts, half-monsters, and low-level monsters, and the further inward the Chinkis Mountains go, the more powerful the creatures that exist. And Warcraft, like people, will continue to grow, just like the giant spur encountered in the Saza Hunting Trial, they have the desire to devour the magic core of other creatures, that is, they have the desire to become stronger, or maybe it is just instinct. In short, after a long period of growth, there will always be a Beastmaster, which can also be understood as the advancement of Warcraft. Low-level Warcraft refers to the first- and second-order Warcraft, and when the second-order Warcraft is successfully advanced, it will become the Beastmaster of the shallow, and it will issue an announcement to the middle-level Warcraft, and the middle-level Warcraft will have a Warcraft to respond to its announcement, and the new Beastmaster must kill this Warcraft to be eligible to enter the middle level. And when the beastmaster makes an announcement, it will panic the beasts in the shallow places, causing the beast tide, that is, the collective escape of the beasts.

Reason tells Sazar that it should be safest to join the beast tide and flee to the outermost layer of the Jakis Mountains at this time. And curiosity has been thinking: what is the Beastmaster like, and what will the battle of the Beastmaster be like?

"No matter what, just take a look and you won't die!" Saza finally took the hand of curiosity, after all, the battle of the Beastmaster is a thing that can be encountered but not wanted, so God knows when the next time will be. Of course, he didn't think that he could gain anything else, but looking at the battle of the beastmaster, he could be considered satisfied. As for Laura and Sean, go back and apologize to them.

Against the direction of the beast tide, Saza walked forward slowly, today he can be regarded as seeing all the creatures in the shallow part of the Jakis Mountains, what slugs, poisonous flowers, gun-beaked birds, all kinds of creatures are running wildly in the beast tide. It took about half an hour for him to break free from the beast tide.

And after the beast tide, the Takis Mountains suddenly quieted down, losing all sounds, and Saza was not sure where the so-called beast king was, he just went deeper in the direction of the beast tide, and suddenly he heard a human voice:

"Hey, young chicken, can you do it? Hurry up, there's something important to come!"

Saza followed the sound and quietly looked closer, only to see more than a dozen teenagers surrounding a skinny pickpocket monkey, while one of them was trembling with a sword pointed at it, and the others were watching around him. Looking at the badges on the chests of several people, Saza recognized them, students of the Spinosaurus War School. It was so funny that a group of warriors with well-developed limbs could bully the weakest half-demonic beast together, and he couldn't help but sneer. He didn't expect that the pickpocket monkey's ears would move with his snort, and he would actually hear it! What was even more odious was that this guy actually ran to him with a smoke and hid at his feet.

Those people caught up, and naturally found Saza behind the book.

"Are you a mage at a magic school?" one of the sharp-eyed men recognized him.

"Uh-huh. Saza seemed to be waiting for the man to speak.

"The two schools of war demons, don't interfere with each other, you won't know the rules, right?"

Saza looked surprised when he heard the man's words: "You are from the combat school? ”

"You!" the man was about to get angry, but a red-haired man next to him stopped him, and at the red-haired man's signal, all the people who were already eager to try fell silent.

"Let's go. Redhair's voice was a little low, but it was no less intimidating, and everyone honestly followed him. Except for the long-haired boy who had swayed his sword at first, he stood there looking at the pickpocket monkey for a long time, and finally glanced at Saza before running to catch up with his companions.

The people were gone, and Saza looked back and noticed the little guy at his feet, the pickpocket monkey was probably one of the weakest half-monsters, but its intelligence was astonishingly high, and in the words of the old hunters: it was almost human. Although they like to steal human food, they are spiritually strong and have no valuables on them, so usually no one will hurt them.

Today, Saza is also completely convinced of the intelligence of the pickpocket monkey, and even knows to use him as a shield. "Little one, shouldn't you let go of your hands?" he shook his legs, and his two monkey hands were still clinging to it.

"Squeak ......" The pickpocket monkey let go of its hand and jumped and jumped on the ground, as if celebrating the rest of his life.

Saza didn't bother with it, he followed in the direction the group had left, he didn't believe that the gang from the War School was here just to bully a little monkey. His intuition told him that this group of people had a way to find the Beastmaster, otherwise they wouldn't have left so freely just now.

Anyone knows that if they can appear at the scene of the desperate struggle between the Beastmaster and the Fighting Demon Beast for the first time, they can almost wait for the profit of the left-handed fisherman, and no matter how bad it is, they can get a third-order Demon Beast that has died thoroughly. Of course, the premise is that you are the only spectator, otherwise the battle that follows may not be much better than the battle between the two beasts just now.

There is plenty of time for people to search for the two beasts, because normally, the Beastmaster is still in his weak period when he first comes into the world, so he will not fight the fighting beasts right away. It will probably hide for three or four days, and then fight against the Demon Beast after recovering. However, normally, in these three or four days, people will instead go to the more difficult to find the Beastmaster instead of the Beast Beast that should be fighting, the Beastmaster in a weak state will generally not take the initiative to attack, while the other third-order Beast in a full state will instinctively attack all the creatures it sees.

"Squeak!"

Saza looked back and saw a pickpocket monkey, and by the broken half of its tail, he could be sure that it was the monkey he had just saved.

"I say, you should go over there now, and find your kind!, understand?" said Saza, bending down and pointing in the direction of the beast tide.

The pickpocket monkey scratched his head very humanely, looking like he didn't understand.

"Don't play stupid, I know you understand! I'll tell you, I don't have any food on my hands!"

"Squeak—" The monkey finally turned away in a gloomy manner, and even its tail drooped.

Seeing the monkey leaving, Saza hurriedly quickened his pace to chase the group in front of him, but he saw a lot of groups of people along the way, who should have come to find the king, yes, who doesn't want to bite such a piece of fat. However, most of these people are some hunters, and the last is also some high-level students, Saza is indeed one of the few students in the beginner's class, and the other beginner's class students are estimated to have escaped from the Chinkis Mountains at this moment.

Ignoring the mocking eyes of those people, he secretly followed the group of people from the war school into a forest.

This forest is already a relatively deep place, if it weren't for the occurrence of the beast tide, Saza would have been surrounded by first- and second-order demonic beasts, but now this place is unusually quiet. "Huh," he suddenly heard a sound behind him. Someone!

Turning around suddenly, I saw a pickpocket monkey leaning on a tree next to him and looking up at the sky, looking as if nothing had happened. Although he didn't know why, he finally understood that this pickpocket monkey had relied on him. He didn't have the time to take care of it, so he had to let it follow.

However, compared to the monkey behind him, Saza had more headaches, the group of war school students who were not far in front just now had disappeared without a trace at this time, and the key thing was that he seemed to be lost......

"Senior, we've got rid of that guy. ”

"Hmm. The man nodded, if Saza was here he would have recognized this as the red-haired boy from the war school, perhaps calling him a boy a little too tender, at least the gloom and composure he was showing now was not something that a boy could have. "Did you find that advanced demonic beast?"

"I've asked the tender chicken to look for it, and it should be found soon. ”

"Be quick, there's just too many eyes staring at it. ”

"Yes. ”

The red hair looked up at the late sky, and his brows were full of thoughts, if he could succeed this time......
