"Just wait, I'll remember this," Zeuss fiercely scolded. But saying this couldn't hide the restlessness in his heart. His heart turned cold as he saw the Orachiss getting closer and closer.
'It's over, it's really over.' He couldn't escape from the hands of the Orachiss without the Crystal Watch.
But at this time, Lin Yun quickly rushed over.
Lin Yun then directed the Heaven Puppet to protect Zeuss.
In an instant, the Heaven Puppet cast countless spells on the spot, forming a flood of spells that attacked the Orachiss.
As the Heaven Puppet burst out, black mist curled up around the Orachiss' body, and its two heads of ice and fire had their skin torn apart, to the point that the Orachiss let out a pained cry. It then let out an angry roar, its abyssal aura tightly locking onto the Heaven Puppet.
At this time, the Orachiss had no time to pay attention to Zeuss. Its three heads and six eyes emitted an ominous glint as it crazily roared at the Heaven Puppet.
"It's you?" Zeuss' eyes were wide open. He could imagine countless possibilities, but he hadn't expected that the one to save him would actually be Mafa Merlin!
Zeuss froze, even forgetting that this was the best time to escape from the Orachiss.
Lin Yun impatiently looked at him. "You still haven't f * cking left? What are you waiting for? Do you want the Orachiss to treat you as dinner? "
Hearing this curse, Zeuss woke up as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over him. He finally realized what a grave mistake he had just made.
Zeuss looked at Lin Yun with a complicated expression before quickly leaving the Orachiss and following behind Lin Yun, rushing towards the end of the forest.
Everyone quickly rushed out of the forest, but for some reason, the Orachiss didn't continue to chase after them. But just when Lin Yun felt that they were temporarily safe, he discovered that the Black Tower's people had been scattered.
In other words, only Lin Yun's group and the Watson Family's members were still together.
It seemed that when they were escaping, the situation was too chaotic and the people from the Black Tower were separated from them. 'Right, there's also the Watson Family's Mark Watson, he also seems to have disappeared. But it didn't matter. Lin Yun didn't care about these things.
The Black Tower's Zeuss had an ashen expression. He hadn't said a word on the way because he couldn't understand why Falton would do such a hateful thing.
"Haven't you heard of the story of encountering a bear in the forest?" Lin Yun walked to Zeuss' side with a smile. He could see that this 8th Rank Archmage didn't understand what had happened.
"Eh?" Zeuss was stunned. What did Mafa Merlin mean by that?
Seeing Zeuss' appearance, Lin Yun sighed and explained as bluntly as possible, "To put it simply, one day, two people made an appointment to go hunting, but they ended up encountering a bear on the way. They had no choice but to flee, but unfortunately, the bear was a lot faster than them. One of them couldn't keep up and stopped, gasping for breath. He then told the other, 'Don't run, it's useless. We can't outrun a bear no matter how fast we run. Guess what the other person replied?"
"What was his reply?"
"The other person said, 'It doesn't matter if I can't outrun a bear, as long as I can outrun you …'"
"…" It turned out that the reason was that simple, but after hearing it, Zeuss didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
…
Lin Yun led the way, followed by the Draconic Beastman, Reina, and the others. Behind them were the three members of the Watson Family.
On the way, the aura of the Orachiss was faintly discernible, but they didn't dare to stop. They had managed to get rid of the Orachiss with great difficulty, and if they were caught again, their previous efforts would have been in vain.
Only after they entered a large canyon did the Orachiss' aura completely disappear.
Only then did everyone truly heave a sigh of relief …
But then, their gazes fell on the canyon in front of them.
From a distance, the top of the canyon looked like it had been cut by an axe. Their line of sight moved down to the vast barren land.
Yes, barren …
This canyon was unimaginably desolate. It was as if they had arrived in a barren area, barren and dry. There was almost no water source.
They took a deep breath, but it wasn't pure air, it was mixed with gravel.
Naturally, there were some other factors, such as the Black Blood Lizards that filled every corner of the canyon. These lizards weren't weak, each of them was at least level 30.
Each Black Blood Lizard had a horn that was sharper than a sword, and its skin was covered with green scales. This proved that these Black Blood Lizards were quite poisonous. They were hiding in the yellow sand, motionless. But there was no doubt that they wouldn't be as calm as they were now if someone accidentally intruded into their territory.
There were too many Black Blood Lizards, and they would definitely clash with them if they wanted to pass through.
If they had a choice, no one would be willing to enter such an area. But there was no other way, this was the only way forward.
But before that, Lin Yun arranged for everyone to take a short rest outside the canyon. They had consumed too much energy, so they needed some time to recover.
But at this time, a pained expression appeared on Zeuss' face.
"Thump …"
His heart fiercely throbbed, as if it was about to split open.
Yes, it was splitting open. This feeling wasn't only abrupt, but it was also very intense. That pain made even Zeuss, a powerhouse of the Watson Family, pale.
At this time, Zeuss shockingly discovered that he seemed to have suffered an extremely serious injury.
But, when did he get injured?
'Was it from the fight with the Orachiss?'
'Right, when Falton framed me, the Crystal Scales lost their effect and I was hit by the flames of the Orachiss. It seems that it was at that time …'
"Sir Watson, are you alright?" Rhett happened to see this scene and walked to Zeuss' side, looking at him with a worried expression.
"I'm fine." Zeuss took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed the pain.
He knew that he couldn't let others know that he was injured at this time.
He had no choice but to endure. Because it wasn't just Rhett's group, there was also the Merlin Family's Draconic Beastman, the Frost Dragon, and Mafa Merlin.
He had to endure in order to continue leading the Watson Family and the Merlin Family.
It was hard to imagine how Mafa Merlin would deal with the Watson Family after losing his Archmage power.
"Alright, I can no longer feel the aura of that hateful Orachiss. Lord Xiuban survived." Xiuban could finally relax. Ever since he encountered the Orachiss, the timid Xiuban hadn't been able to relax.
But he was safe now …
Reina's Frost Dragon Bloodline was destined to have the strongest self-recovery ability. In a short time, the injuries inflicted by the Orachiss had already healed.
She was now standing at Lin Yun 'side, her long silver hair hanging down to her waist. Her perfectly round waist had a wild beauty to it.
"What should we do next?"
"Let's get through here first." Only now did Lin Yun reveal a relieved smile. He sized up the canyon before him before frowning. "But it's clear that it won't be easy to pass through here."
"Yes." Rena nodded, but before she could open her mouth again, she heard a series of shrill screams.
That wasn't the sound of the wind, it was a lot gentler. In a split second, Reina seemed to understand something.
Then, the Draconic Beastman's alarmed voice echoed, "Sir Merlin, it's not good! Those damned Black Blood Lizards are heading towards us!"
In fact, there was no need for his reminder. It wasn't just Lin Yun who had seen it, the Watson Family had also seen it.
There were several dozen Black Blood Lizards. They broke through the sand and created a sandstorm as they rapidly and crazily charged towards the team that had just arrived in the canyon.
Arthus and Rhett's expressions changed at the same time. They had consumed a lot of mana and Aura during the fight with the Orachiss, and they didn't have much mana left.
Under normal circumstances, this would have been the time to meditate and rest. But the sudden appearance of the Black Blood Lizards broke their plans.
This made things a bit more troublesome.
"These damned Black Blood Lizards, why aren't they staying in the canyon? Why are they causing trouble now?" Rhett's expression was somewhat unsightly. He couldn't help cursing, but he had already raised his magic staff. He couldn't just watch as the Black Blood Lizards rushed over, could he?
On the other side, Arthus also raised his greatsword, his expression even more unsightly than Rhett's. Not to mention the Black Blood Lizards' innate poison, they also had powerful magic abilities. If they were at their peak, dealing with them would be a simple matter, but the problem was that everyone here, including him, wasn't at their peak.
Thus, it would be difficult to deal with the Black Blood Lizards by themselves. After all, this wasn't just one or two, but ten Black Blood Lizards.
"Let's go together." Lin Yun frowned. This wasn't the time to show off. The Merlin Family's side, whether it was Xiuban, Reina, or even the Heaven Puppet, they had all suffered huge losses.
However, at this moment, a voice rang out …
"Hold on, I alone am enough to deal with the Black Blood Lizards." Zeuss suddenly interrupted, his expression unprecedentedly serious.
