The Velociraptor that the man in black rode was a kind of sub-dragon. Although it was vastly different from a real dragon, it was already an excellent mount. The ordinary horses that the hunters rode were not even worth mentioning compared to the Velociraptor.
Although the so-called wyverns were essentially just wild beasts, they were beasts that were transformed by the giant dragons using their own blood as a catalyst. Furthermore, it took many years and repeated experiments to solidify their bloodline. They were almost at the peak of wild beasts. In fact, as long as they had enough food and time, almost every one of them could grow into a magical beast.
The Velociraptor was a species that was specially transformed for riding. It was taller than ordinary horses, and its oval body slightly resembled the characteristics of birds. Its strong and powerful feet could run as if they were flying, and its pair of sharp claws could tear tigers and leopards apart. Its long tail covered with bone armor and its mouth full of sharp teeth were awe-inspiring. Its back armor, which was shaped like a cushion, could minimize the bumps suffered by the riders. Even if the riders rode for a few hours, they would not feel any pain in their bones, and they did not have to worry about the so-called "pain in the balls".
The Velociraptor that the man in black rode was taller than ordinary ones, and there was a short horn on its forehead. When it ran, there were faint electric sparks lingering on the horn. Obviously, the Velociraptor already had a magic circuit in its body, and it was not far from becoming a real monster.
The strong man who could tame such a fierce beast as a mount was naturally extraordinary. And this man's approach was also very rational. He did not chase the enemy too closely, but just followed them from a distance, so that the enemy could keep running and could not rest. He sat steadily on the back armor of the Velociraptor, which had transformed into a cushion. From time to time, he would stop to eat and drink, and it was so comfortable that it was like a hike.
"Interesting! The 'hunter' has become the target of the hunt. This is worth watching! "
Sui Xiong suddenly became interested, and leisurely followed the group, wanting to see what was going on.
The escape and chase lasted for several days, and the two sides gradually went deep into the Great Desert. The fugitives were probably in a panic, and the pursuers were bold and skillful. Seeing that the surrounding scenery gradually turned from greyish-black to greyish-yellow, they had reached an extremely dangerous area. It was unknown whether the fugitives had exhausted their strength or they had mustered the last bit of courage in this desperate situation, but under the leadership of their leader, they all roared and turned their horses around, ready to fight to the death with their pursuers.
The battle ended very quickly. The man in black's horsemanship, spear technique, and swordsmanship were all extremely exquisite. With a long spear and a long sword, he attacked from both sides. The one-horned swift dragon he was riding also helped in the fight. The hunters who preyed on humans were simply unable to withstand a single blow from him. The counterattack that they tried their best to set off was like a small wave crashing into a solid dam, instantly collapsing and disintegrating, leaving only blood on the ground.
After mercilessly killing all the enemies, the man in black jumped off his mount and searched the fugitives.
After searching for a while, he finally found his target. It was a golden crystal that was about half the length of a palm. It looked like a crystal pillar, and inside the transparent crystal, there was a golden gas that was constantly flowing and changing into countless scenes. It was also the light of this gas that turned the originally colorless and transparent crystal pillar golden.
The moment he saw the crystal pillar, the man in black, who had been silent and calm, revealed a look of joy and laughed loudly. He grasped the crystal pillar tightly in his hand, looked at it, smiled, and kissed it several times, regardless of the blood stains. He was very excited.
Sui Xiong could not help but be surprised. The golden gas in the crystal pillar was churning, constantly evolving into all kinds of phenomena in the world. It was clearly a wisp of Divine Power!
Divine Power was a very wonderful power. In addition to using Divine Power to wrap it, only a large amount of magic power could bind it. And to create it, one needed to rely on the understanding of the "source of power" to refine it from magic power, or transform it from a large amount of power of faith. Even Sui Xiong himself had only truly mastered the means of creating and using Divine Power after swallowing and analyzing the four-faced monster, the oracle of the God of Conspiracy, and could truly be said to have the power equivalent to that of a god.
What was the origin of this crystal pillar? How could it be able to bind Divine Power in it?! And what was the origin of that wisp of golden Divine Power?
With deep curiosity, Sui Xiong manipulated the jellyfish incarnation to suddenly descend from the sky, and directly attacked the man in black at an amazing speed, as if the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.
Although the man in black was excited and ecstatic, his reaction was still very fast. Hearing the sound of the wind descending from the sky, he did not hesitate to put the crystal pillar on a corpse on the ground, and then he rolled sideways to avoid it. He pulled out his sword to stab Sui Xiong.
Using the crystal pillar to attract the enemy's attention, and at the same time drawing his sword to counterattack, his judgment was extremely accurate, and he didn't even need to look to stab the target with his sword. His martial arts skills and rich combat experience were truly amazing!
However, the gap between their strength had reached a point that no martial arts skills or experience could make up for. When he stabbed out with his sword, he felt like stabbing an extremely tough animal skin. The sharp enchanted long sword could not pierce the enemy's body at all, but slid to one side.
The tip of the sword slid away, and his heart sank.
No matter whether the enemy was highly skilled or had powerful equipment, being able to make his sword miss was the embodiment of strength.
At least, if he was in Sui Xiong's shoes, he absolutely did not have the confidence to take this sword.
But this man in black had a strong character, and did not show even a trace of depression. Instead, he stood up, holding his sword in a vigilant posture, and was ready to fight at any time.
But what he saw was a strange jellyfish-like magic beast, which was using its tentacles to pick up the golden crystal pillar.
"What … what monster is this?" he could not help but murmur to himself.
Then he heard the monster's words.
"My name is Oscar, or you can call me 'Void Mask'. This thing is very interesting. I am so close to it, but I can't feel the Divine Power in it. It's really wonderful! "
The heart of the man in black suddenly became cold. He was experienced and knowledgeable, and as soon as he heard Sui Xiong's tone, he knew that Sui Xiong was at least often in contact with the Divine Power, and might even talk and laugh with a certain god. That was why he was so rude to the Divine Power.
A strong person of that level had almost reached the point of "existence". He was just an adventurer who had not even touched the gate of legend, and was completely vulnerable in front of it.
Once the Divine Power fell into its hands, he had no chance at all.
For this Divine Power, he spent countless time and energy, and the time he spent in disguise and ambush was more than half a year. In order to deal with the Church of the Cruel Hunter (another name for the God of Hunting and Massacre), he spent all his wealth and deceived a large number of ruthless people who wanted money more than their lives. For this, he used up almost all the favors he had accumulated over the years, and he also made a large number of enemies. Finally, he personally went deep into the dangerous Gobi Desert and chased after the faithful believers of the Cruel Hunter for thousands of miles, which was a great offense to the cruel god.
According to his plan, after finishing this task, he would escape as soon as possible, preferably to the southeast of the continent, and even consider moving to another plane to live … But in his opinion, it was all worth it.
As long as his plan could be successfully realized, or in other words, even if it was just to fight for that opportunity, it was worth it!
But now, all his hard work had gone up in smoke!
If it were not for his strong willpower and self-control, he would have desperately rushed up and wanted to fight with the strange big jellyfish, trying to take back the Divine Power — of course, it was actually suicide.
He did not want to die, so he had no choice but to endure.
Sui Xiong carefully studied the crystal column, but he could not see how to take out the Divine Power in it, nor could he see the origin of the Divine Power. Finally, he had to ask the only surviving person involved.
"Inside is the Divine Power of the Goddess of Life," the man in black replied.
"The Goddess of Life? Didn't she fall long ago … "Sui Xiong said casually. Suddenly, his body shook, and he understood the man's plan.
He actually wanted to try to use this Divine Power to understand and grasp the origin of "life", so as to try to obtain the priesthood of "life" and become a god!
"Oh! You are not very capable, but your ambition is really not small! "Sui Xiong could not help but be amazed." With such little ability, you dare to fight for the priesthood of life? Haven't you ever thought that when you become a god, those gods with the priesthood of death will come to attack you together? "
"Maybe, but I can join a god system and become a follower god," the man in black replied.
"Why should they protect you? Isn't it easier to kill you and deprive you of your priesthood? " Sui Xiong asked again. "Almost every god system has a priesthood that can be related to 'life'. Once you get the priesthood of life, you can immediately create a powerful god. Why do they need to use an outsider like you?"
The man in black was silent for a while and whispered, "I have to try."
He had to give it a try. This was his ambition, his persistence.
Sui Xiong sighed. "Let's not talk about this. Let's talk about another problem first. I have checked it, and this crystal pillar is extremely strong. Even I am not sure that I can break it without damaging the Divine Power in it. Do you have a way? "
"No, but I want to try."
"Everything is just a 'try'?"
"Yes, that's all."
"Just for a chance to try, you dare to offend the God of Hunting and Massacre?"
"Why not?" The man in black's eyes flashed like flames. "I am a robber. I don't know when I will die on the roadside, and my soul will go to hell to be punished … In contrast, what is so terrible about the Cruel Hunter? Can it be more terrible than hell? "
This time it was Sui Xiong's turn to be silent. After a while, he sighed. "I have seen many adventurers, but it is the first time I have seen one as persistent as you."
"The world is so big, and there will always be some strange people and things," the man in black said lightly. "So, what are you going to do now? Silence me? "
"Silencing people is not my style. In contrast, I am more curious about you." Sui Xiong smiled. "Anyway, you are probably going to start to escape, right? Why don't you come with me to the south? If I can crack the secret of this crystal pillar on the way, you will get a share of the benefits. Even if I can't do anything to this crystal pillar after arriving at the destination, at least I can protect you to escape successfully. "
The man in black sighed and bowed deeply. "This is a very reasonable deal. I have no objection."
"So, now can you tell me your name?"
"Lei. This is my name. I also have a nickname, 'Family Destroyer'. "
