When he saw these eyes, Regis was using a simple container to draw water from the shallow stream. Frost was indeed a strange planet. Even though the surface of the planet was frozen all year round, the rivers never froze. At most, during the coldest period of time, thin ice would appear on the surface of the stream. However, when you break through the ice, you will find that the water below is still flowing endlessly.
Regis did not object to the task that Reina had assigned him, but he felt a little bored. He would have preferred to trade places with Belmond. With his temperament, hunting wild beasts was more appropriate than drawing water. However, the night in the forest dispelled his thoughts. The darkness that filled the hills of the forest was like a curtain that would cover a person's eyes. Regis asked himself that in this environment, Belmond was more competent than him for the task of hunting.
The stream was very cold, and a faint light shone under the surface of the water. Occasionally, the reflection of the ice on the surface of the water could be seen. They floated on the stream like tiny mirrors and drifted with the waves, heading towards the endless other side. The water was not lifeless. Fish-like slender fingers appeared in the ice water. The golden lines on their bodies glowed with yellow fluorescence in the stream, making it seem as if countless lights were lit up in the stream. Balls of yellow light illuminated Regis's face. He reached out and stirred the water. When a few fish swam over, he saw those eyes.
Those were a pair of golden eyes, like two suns in the night. At first, Regis thought it was a nocturnal beast, but when the two golden lights floated up, the beast stood upright. When the yellow light of the fish in the stream shone on the rough but thick armor, Regis knew what he had encountered.
Catus!
The fellow who was drawing water by the stream was the chaotic life form on Barbarian Stone Planet in the Yordon Domain. After a moment of sluggishness, the rhinoceros let out a long and deep roar. The Catus carried a heavy battle axe, and their elephant-like thick feet plunged into the stream, causing a pillar of water to shake up, causing the fish in the stream to swim away, completely shattering the peaceful night.
There was no need to explain what happened next. Regis bounced up from the ground and warned with a whistle. At the same time, he unsheathed his scabbard and pulled out a magnificent ribbon of light that was as vast as a galaxy towards the Catus. The latter roared as he raised his axe and chopped down. He chopped at the river of stars, but he was unable to shake the belt of light. He could only watch helplessly as it swept across his body. The dazzling radiance was like the sharpest blade, easily slicing apart and shattering the armor on his body that resembled a tank's armor.
When Regis appeared on the other side of the stream, the belt of light that spanned across the stream gradually disappeared. In that instant, the brilliance almost illuminated the galaxy. The Catus completely quietened down. Their tall bodies collapsed and fell into the stream. Soon, blood dyed the stream water with other colors.
Like a gentle breeze, Belmond's arrival was always so gentle. He stepped into the night and walked behind Regis as if he was taking a leisurely stroll. He looked at the corpse in the stream solemnly. Reina and Lucy arrived at the other end of the stream a little later. Looking at the corpse lying on the ground, Reina's smile gradually widened. "Looks like our luck is pretty good."
Before the smile disappeared, it froze on Reina's face. Because he heard a loud roar coming from the dense forest in front of him, accompanied by the sound of ancient trees falling. Apparently, someone thought these things were in the way, so they casually pushed them down. Along with the voice, flames appeared. Looking at the number of flames, Reina estimated that there were at least a hundred people there.
"Let's leave this place first." Reina gestured. He didn't know how many Yordon outsiders there were nearby. Without grasping the enemy's situation, no matter how much he wanted to make a contribution, he wouldn't rashly attack at this time.
He looked rough, but his head wasn't stupid.
Soon, the four of them returned to the camp and started the flying car. They didn't even have time to clean up the campfire and tent. There was no need to clean it up. It was a provocation that Reina had left for the other party. Sure enough, a Catu army soon found the camp. Although the Catus weren't as tall as the Grai, they were all as thick as hills. These upright rhinoceroses only liked thick plate armor, the thickest of which was no different from the armor of the main battle chariot.
The Catus had always been simple-minded and crude. When they discovered the camp, they roared and kicked the campfire away, smashing the tent. By the time Locke arrived, more than half of the human camp had been destroyed. This gave Locke a headache. He was considered an anomaly among the Catus. Locke used a long-handled axe that was taller than him. The surface of the axe alone was half the size of a round table, but Locke was considered short among the Catus.
He even wore light leather armor, and only the important parts of his body were embedded with metal plates. So when he walked out of the Catu warriors, he was like a man lost in the Giant Kingdom. Especially the giant axe he was carrying, it was more like a child carrying a broadsword, and it looked ridiculous. However, those who dared to make fun of Locke had long since disappeared. Their heads had been cut off by Locke's axe, and their souls were still moaning and sobbing in the axe.
Locke's mind was much brighter than the other Catus. He knew that a fairly complete camp could at least see the other party's race, number of people, equipment, and other information. Of course, now that the camp had been destroyed by his simple-minded and four-legged compatriots, it was hard to see anything.
Locke was so angry that he even pulled over a warrior who was two heads taller than him. He stood next to the soldier, but only came up to the soldier's chest. But the Catus he pulled over bent down so that Locke could hammer his head and curse a few times. If he didn't do this, then it wouldn't be a fist that landed on his head, but Locke's axe.
This Catu army did not wander around casually. They came for Castellan Rock Base. Otherwise, they wouldn't have appeared in the Holly Forest, just like humans or Adahua Planet wouldn't have allowed the Yordon outsiders to stay on the planet. The Catus and the Grai also wanted to sweep through each other's bases and troops all the time. This kind of opposition didn't even need to be expressed in words. Their hatred for each other had long been buried in their blood and bone marrow, deeply planted in every cell.
After the failure of the last blockade of the human fleet, the commander in charge of the Frost Star battle immediately launched a second military operation. In this operation, the first batch to sweep through was a limited supply base like Castellan Rock. Locke's army was only the vanguard. Behind them, the main force was heading over. Locke's mission was to harass the human base, disrupt their vision and sound, and cover for the arrival of the main force.
However, before he could even reach Castellan Rock base, he had already bumped into an unknown enemy, which made Locke very angry. Unlike his compatriots, Locke hated the feeling of his plans being disrupted. So he shouted in the camp and ordered a group of Catu warriors to track down the unknown enemies.
The frost night was indeed long, but no matter how long the night was, it would still pass. When the day arrived, Belmond was standing on the crown of an ancient tree. He squatted down gently and did not make a sound. His movements were so gentle that it was as if the crown of the tree was not carrying a person, but just a fallen leaf. Belmond looked at the two Catu warriors under the tree. In battle, the Catus had always been known for their savagery and bravery. However, they were obviously not good trackers. After a long night of running, most of the people sent out by Locke had already fallen behind. Only the two Catus under the tree were chasing after them.
Reina didn't want to hang two rhinoceroses behind his butt, so Belmond came. When he arrived, the Catus were sleeping under the tree. They were really sleepy. Belmond observed for a moment before floating down from the canopy. He came to the tree and stood between the two Catus. The sleeping rhinoceros had no idea what was beside it. Belmond shook his head and slid out a short blade from each side of his trousers. The short blade had a crescent falcon pattern on it, and there was a blood groove on the edge of the blade.
This pair of blades was exchanged by Allen from the family warehouse. The name of the blade was "Moon Shadow". Although it wasn't a magical weapon, the material of the Moon Shadow Twin Blades was light and sharp, making it more suitable for people like Belmond to use. Sliding out of Moon Shadow, Belmond's hands bounced up, and his blades brushed past the throats of the two Catus like a breeze. He didn't look at the result and immediately retreated after succeeding.
As for the two Catus, the rough skin between their necks silently split open, and blood began to flow out. However, the wound was so big that the Catus didn't even feel pain. They were still sleeping soundly, but the wound was deep enough that it was enough for them to bleed profusely. A quarter of an hour later, the two Catus bled too much and died in their sleep.
On a relatively open hill, the snow had been cleared away. There was a rugged camp on the hill, where the Catus' troops were taking a temporary rest. There were no tents in the camp, and the Catus were in groups of three or five, simply lying on the ground and sleeping. They didn't even remove their armor, as if the armor was a part of their bodies. The snoring in the camp was like thunder, rising and falling one after another. There were only a few scattered warriors standing guard with sleepy eyes. However, this kind of vigilance was only slightly stronger than none at all.
Locke didn't sleep. He wiped his axe with the fur of an unknown beast. The long handle of the axe was made of the bones of a giant beast on Barbarian Stone Planet. This kind of beast bone contained an extremely high amount of iron, and its color was as dark as the sky of eternal night. There were natural light-colored lines on it, making the handle of the axe not slippery. The surface of the axe was rough metal. It was more like a metal embryo, but the edges had been sharpened by Locke himself.
