And now that I think about it, when these demonic beasts appeared, they were all panicked, and there were some very violent and uncalm aura. It doesn't seem to be deliberately rushing to attack, but it seems to be on the way, and if you happen to meet it, you must eat the feeling of these guys who are in the way.

"Hmm...... It seems a little strange to say this, those very fierce guys usually launch surprise attacks, and they don't rush out of the forest in a daze, but what does this mean?"

As the strongest combat force in the team, Vladimir was also keenly aware of this strange situation and turned to seek Bai Bing's opinion.

In this squad of five people, although Vladimir's strength was the strongest, everyone attached great importance to Bai Bing's suggestion, and in the encounter of the third wave of double and fourth-order demonic beasts, it was also based on Bai Bing's improvised tactics to win at such a small cost.

Each of the five people is very good, but Bai Bing unknowingly became the leader of the team under such conditions.

Hearing Vladimir's question, Bai Bing thought for a while, but did not answer immediately, but turned his head and asked Diana, "Diane, you have the most experience in the field, you can tell us what these clues mean." ”

"According to my judgment, this situation is a little bit like ......," Diana said slowly, and her tone was not very confident, as if even she didn't quite believe what she was about to say, "a little bit like a sign before the beast tide came." ”

"What?beast tide?" "This day Rift?can't be!"

"Diana, you should be mistaken......" Everyone was shocked by Diana's reasoning, and their jaws were about to drop to the ground, their faces full of disbelief.

Beast tide refers to a huge number of demonic beasts gathering together and launching a tidal charge attack towards a certain location or direction, which is not as damaging as possible. There are various reasons for the emergence of beast tides, such as the appearance of overlord-level demonic beasts above the ninth order, controlling all demonic beasts to launch attacks on humans, or being affected by the vision of heaven and earth, instinctively rushing to a place, and vowing not to give up until they arrive.

But there are still many reasons for the formation of beast tides, which cannot be explained at all, such as the extraordinarily large beast tide that occurred in the Bite Federation twenty years ago. In that beast tide, in the Paradise Valley in the west of the Pitzer Federation, countless demonic beasts suddenly gathered together, including eighth-order and ninth-order super demonic beasts, launched an attack on Ouyun City, the capital of the Pitzer Federation, destroying several small towns along the way.

At this time, the leader of the Black Sword Mercenary Regiment, Ka Xiu, stepped forward and led the other three mercenary groups to defend Ouyun City, relying on the black big sword in his hand, he slashed the two ninth-order demonic beasts of the Earth Giant Bear and the Eight Miscellaneous Giant Snake, stabilized the morale of the army, turned the tide, and finally led the four major mercenary groups of the Beze Federation to repel the beast tide.

After this battle, Kaxiu shook the continent and reached the peak of his prestige in the Pizzar Federation, not only becoming the de facto leader of all the armed forces of the Pizzar Federation, but also crowning the president of the Mainland Mercenary Association, known as the "Mercenary King".

However, despite many investigations afterwards, the cause of this beast tide has not been found.

However, all beast tides have one thing in common, that is, near the outbreak site, there must be a forest, mountain range, or secret realm where a large number of demonic beasts live.

And although there are a lot of demonic beasts in the Heavenly Rift, they obviously don't meet the standard for the outbreak of beast tides. Moreover, after all, the Heavenly Rift Valley is under the nose of the Imperial Academy, and a large number of demonic beasts are artificially free-range, so no matter how you think about it, there can be no such thing as a beast tide.

Therefore, everyone expressed great doubts about Diana's inference.

Bai Bing was also very skeptical, but he was even more convinced that Diana would never lie to him for no reason, so he cautiously retorted, "Diana, are you really sure that this is a sign of the beast tide?"

"Although I can't believe it myself, the previous three demonic beast attacks, as well as the signs of the current Heavenly Rift, are completely consistent with the scene before a small-scale beast tide in southern Xinjiang two years ago. Diana's tone was skeptical at first, but the more she spoke, the more firm she became.

At this moment, several people all showed cautious expressions, after all, the beast tide is not a joke, although the demonic beasts in the Heavenly Rift Valley can only support a super-small beast tide, but for students, once they encounter it, they will definitely die for a lifetime.

Bai Bing thought about it for a moment, and then asked, "Diane, then according to your inference, how much time is there before the beast tide erupts?"

Diana immediately replied: "It's hard to say, it can be at any time, but judging from the beast tide I have experienced, there should be more than half a day." ”

After listening to Diana's answer, Bai Bing nodded, then turned to everyone and said: "In this case, we have two choices at the moment, one is to give up the mission and immediately return to the academy to report the signs of the beast tide, so as to ensure our safety as much as possible, and the other option is to speed up and hunt the fire-kissed spirit leopard in the shortest time, and then return to the academy, but there is a certain risk of encountering the beast tide." Of these two choices, I propose to vote. ”

"If I go back like this, I'm really not reconciled, I choose to continue the mission!" Gustavo, an adventurous fellow, was the first to say.

"Hehe, I believe that Ronald will never give up the mission, so I will never give up the mission, otherwise it will be too shameless. Vladimir followed suit.

"Of course, the task is done, and I don't have the habit of giving up halfway. Lilith chose to take the plunge as well.

Bai Bing and Diana glanced at each other, and Diana also spoke, "Okay, actually, I also think that if we hurry up, as long as we are not too unlucky, we should be able to find the fire-kissed spirit leopard before the beast tide." ”

"Moreover, it is unknown whether the beast tide will break out. In the end, Bai Bing made a final decision, "Then we will hurry up and search with all our might!"

"It seems that it is necessary to bring out the hunting masters!" Diana suddenly showed a mysterious smile, took a white tiger statue from her waist and pressed it gently.

As soon as a few people saw the majestic moon-bladed white tiger appear in front of them, they glanced at them with those big lazy and majestic eyes, stretched their waists, and squatted down beside Diana, obviously not paying attention to the others.

"Wow, how did we forget about it!" Seeing Diana summon the White Spirit, Vladimir and Gustavo were overjoyed.

After all, tigers are natural masters of tracking and hunting, and this species advantage is difficult for humans to catch up with, even if they are experienced.

"Hey, what else are you looking at, don't hide it, find your one too. Lilith said with her elbow against Bai Bing's ribs and with a hint of pride.

"Okay, Xiao Jin, come out!" Bai Bing pressed the earrings, Xiao Jin was immediately released from the star diamond, immediately flew into the air and spared a circle, and then stood on Bai Bing's shoulder.

"Damn, you're so handsome, senior brother, you have such a soul beast, why didn't you tell me earlier. Gustavo stared at Xiao Jin, who had a wingspan of three meters, and was obviously very envious, and he almost drooled.

On the other side, Vladimir's eyes also bulged out, and he didn't expect Bai Bing to have such a killer feature.

Diana leaned down and whispered something in Bai Ling's ear, and Bai Ling immediately waved his thick and long tail, shook his tiger body, and rushed towards the depths of the jungle.

Similarly, Bai Bing gently patted Xiao Jin's head, and Xiao Jin also spread his wings and flew into the air, searching for traces of the fire-kissed spirit leopard from a high place.

With the help of a tiger and an eagle, two natural top hunters, Bai Bing and the others soon discovered the whereabouts of the fire-kissed spirit leopard.

On top of this giant tree, which requires ten people to hug, a leopard with red and yellow fur is standing on the edge of a branch, looking into the distance, as if observing something.

Its limbs are strong and powerful, and under the palms of its flesh are sharp claws. On the fiery red fur, a fiery red flame emerges from time to time, which is the unique sign of the fire-kissed spirit leopard.

"Don't be in a hurry, hold your breath and quietly surround you. "No, don't let the fire-kissed spirit leopard with five senses be alert, Bai Bing almost used his fighting spirit to send the sound to the ears of several other people, except for these people, no one else or animal can hear it.

Under Bai Bing's command, Vladimir and the others gestured to each other, approaching the Fire-Kissed Spirit Leopard from five directions, Bai Ling pressed the formation in the rear, and Xiao Jin provided aerial vision to ensure that nothing went wrong.

"Up!" Seeing that the encirclement had been formed, and the fire-kissed spirit leopard could not fly with its wings, Bai Bing gave an order, and the five of them shot at the fire-kissed spirit leopard almost at the same time.

However, the Fire-Kissed Spirit Leopard was not a fifth-order demonic beast, as soon as a few people made a move, they immediately reacted, their needle-like pupils shrank, and their bodies were suddenly wrapped in a stream of flames, like a ball of fire, and pounced towards Bai Bing, the weakest of the three people who rushed up!

"So fast!"

In Bai Bing's field of vision, it was quickly filled with a fiery red, and Bai Yun's fighting spirit filled his whole body, raising his sword to meet him.

"Dang!"

The claws and swords struck each other, and there was a crisp sound.

Although it is not a magical beast that is good at frontal attacks, after all, it is ranked in the fifth order, and a ball of flame bursts out from the claws of the fire-kissed spirit leopard, knocking Bai Bing back to the ground, and at the same time, he uses his strength to pounce, wanting to escape from the encirclement.

However, Lilith and Diana were not vases, a sonic boom, plus three sharp arrows, sealed all the escape routes of the fire-kissed spirit leopard, and had to retreat and paced up and down the branches.

Vladimir appeared like a ghost behind the Fire-Kissed Spirit Leopard, his face even paler against the backdrop of the fiery red, but his hands were like two poisonous snakes with their fangs exposed, striking at the back of the Fire-Kissed Spirit Leopard's head at the most tricky angle.

However, the fire-kissed spirit leopard seemed to have eyes on the back of its head, and with a sweep of the leopard's tail, it swept away Vladimir's attack.

However, he couldn't hide from the fifteenth year of junior high school, and although Vladijan returned in vain, it created an opportunity for Gustavo, who was one step slower, and his weapon was a tomahawk.

A cold light flashed in the air, and Gustavo launched a full blow to the fire-kissed spirit leopard with a thunderous momentum, and under the repeated attacks, this fifth-order demonic beast finally couldn't retreat with its whole body, although it still dodged most of its strength with agile movements and was not fatal, but it was still cut by Gustavo's battle axe in the waist with a not shallow wound.

"Whew!"

Under the pain, the fire-kissed spirit leopard let out a roar, its eyes widened, and it seemed that it no longer intended to escape, but ignited its anger and prepared to fight the trapped beast.
