Report

His footsteps became faster and faster until he started running.

He didn't even need to look up to know that he was being targeted by a mutated creature above his head. The strong sense of danger made his scalp tingle.

Fortunately, this was not an open area, but a city. The surrounding tall buildings blocked the giant bird's line of sight, so it could not attack immediately.

While running, Luo Yuan raised his head to take a look. It was undoubtedly a gigantic creature. It was even bigger than the black owl he had seen last time. When it spread its wings, it looked like a golden cloud floating above the city.

It circled over and over again, looking for the best time to hunt. Its eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, staring coldly in Luo Yuan's direction.

This was an uninjured and intact mutated beast. Perhaps it had escaped from the battlefield, or perhaps it had just arrived from another area. However, from the system's prompt, it could be seen that this mutated bird called the Golden-Winged Roc was full of energy, and it was a blue rank mutated beast.

That was why Luo Yuan was running on the street. The Golden-Winged Roc was his prey, but so was he. If it had been a dark blue level mutated beast, he would have already rushed into the nearby buildings to hide.

Even so, Luo Yuan still felt an overwhelming pressure.

If it had been a blue level mutated beast on land, Luo Yuan would not have felt this way. Creatures of this level would not have caused him much psychological pressure, but this did not include flying creatures. If there was any type of mutated beast that gave Luo Yuan the most headaches, it would undoubtedly be flying mutated beasts. Flying creatures naturally had the upper hand against land creatures, and most of the time, it was difficult to counter them.

Most importantly, he had never fought against a flying creature before, so he had no experience at all.

However, he did not want to retreat. This was a rare opportunity. If he could kill this mutated beast, he would be able to level up. This was much easier than spending a lot of time looking for injured mutated beasts. It was always tempting to get it done once and for all.

No matter what, it was only a blue level mutated beast.

He kept thinking about the animal world, the scene of the falcon catching the hare. The scene was like a slow-motion scene in a movie that kept replaying in his mind. Gradually, his running speed slowed down, and finally, he stopped in an empty shopping mall.

Running, other than wasting one's stamina, was completely useless. Against such a creature, one could only wait for it to exhaust itself. It was fine if it didn't move, but if it did, it would be like a thunderbolt.

There were no uncertainties in the empty square. There were no disturbances. It was the best battlefield for both the golden-winged bird and him.

He took a deep breath and looked at the sky.

Its golden wings shone brightly under the sunlight. The giant wings, which were more than ten meters wide, circled in the air over and over again. Its circling speed became faster and faster, and the circle it circled became smaller and smaller. Finally, it could not hold back anymore. It slowly folded its wings and directly dove down from the sky. Its speed became faster and faster. In just a second, the sky suddenly exploded!

Its speed broke through the sound barrier, and a white sonic cloud appeared in midair. The strong sound wave shattered the glass of the nearby buildings.

"It's coming!" Luo Yuan's heart skipped a beat. He stared at the approaching giant bird and held the handle of his knife tightly. His adrenal glands were secreting rapidly, and his heart was beating like a drum.

With 13 points of Dexterity, he was like a high altitude camera, trying his best to capture the giant bird's movement trajectory. However, he still felt helpless. Its speed was too fast, almost as fast as a bullet.

Under its terrifying speed, the air directly formed a long air tunnel. Before it even got close to the ground, there was already a strong wind blowing in the square. Sand and pebbles were flying, and even his skin felt like it was being cut by a knife.

The piercing aura made him almost want to turn and run, but he also understood that it was too late to run. The nearest building was only a few dozen meters away, but no matter how fast he was, he could not outrun the giant bird that was already diving down to hunt. At this point, he strangely calmed down. His clothes fluttered in the strong wind, and he could not help but squint his eyes.

100 meters, 50 meters, 20 meters. A pair of claws that looked like the roots of an old tree, covered with gray scales, stretched out from under its abdomen. Its sharp nails were like daggers, emitting a metallic luster. There was no doubt that these claws could easily scratch through a steel plate.

The giant claws were about to grab his body, but Luo Yuan suddenly closed his eyes. The giant bird's movement was like a burning torch in the dark. Every movement became extremely clear in Luo Yuan's' eyes'. There was nothing else in his mind except for the pair of giant claws.

He could even avoid bullets, let alone this giant bird that could not outrun bullets.

His body subconsciously tilted slightly, and in the next moment, with a long "Zheng" sound, the Zhanmadao was suddenly unsheathed. Like a sudden clap of thunder, a cold light streaked across the sky, and the edge of the blade silently chopped at the two pairs of knotted claws. The moment it came into contact, it only paused for a moment, and the pair of seemingly tough claws began to separate from its body.

The giant bird did not have time to react, and before it could feel any pain, Luo Yuan's body moved again.

He stomped hard on the stone slabs of the square, and his body swayed. The next moment, his shoulder heavily hit the giant bird's abdomen.

Strength was different from attributes like Intelligence and Dexterity, which had almost zero flexibility. It was very flexible, and there was a huge difference between the strength of an ordinary person and a professionally trained person. Some famous strongmen were stronger than him, but the strength of an ordinary person was only 2. 25 times was already quite impressive.

The giant bird looked huge, but that was mainly because of its wide wings. Without its wings, its body was only about three meters tall. Moreover, the giant bird was still in the air, so when it was hit by Luo Yuan, it flew five to six meters away and fell on the ground.

The giant bird let out a shrill shriek, causing Luo Yuan's eardrums to vibrate and buzz.

The giant bird on the ground finally reacted. It was not food, but a ferocious beast that was even scarier than it was. The intense pain from its broken leg and its instinctive sense of danger made it struggle violently. It flapped its wings crazily, creating a strong typhoon around it.

However, since it was already on the ground, Luo Yuan would not let it have a chance to escape.

He lowered his body and grabbed the ground with his feet, crossing his legs like the wind. His upper body was almost parallel to the ground, and the stone slabs were broken under his feet. He went against the strong wind, his hair flying wildly. He was like a sharp arrow, piercing through the air.

He closed the distance of five to six meters in a breath. As he got closer, a huge wing flapped towards him. The Golden-Winged Roc, which was already in a desperate situation, exploded with terrifying strength. The friction between its feathers and the stone slabs created a dazzling flame that was a few meters high. The air around its wings was so fast that it almost formed a translucent ball of air. Even a nearby marble table was blown away by its wings. Such an attack would have been a bloody mess, not to mention a direct hit.

Although Luo Yuan was prepared, he still held his breath. However, his movements were not slow at all. He grabbed the Zhanmadao that he was dragging on the ground. The next moment, a cold light flashed, and half of the giant bird's wings flew off. Luo Yuan was not in a good situation either. Although he managed to avoid the direct attack, he was still blown away by the strong wind nearby. He only stopped after flying more than ten meters away.

He felt something sweet in his throat, and spat out a mouthful of blood.

He licked his blood-stained lips and wiped them with his sleeve without a care. Finally, he looked at the giant bird that only had one wing left and no legs. It could only struggle in vain. A cold smile appeared on his face.

A bird without wings and claws was much weaker. However, Luo Yuan did not dare to be careless. Compared to mutated beasts, his fragile body told him that he could never be careless when fighting mutated beasts. If he was careless, he would die!

His eyes were cold as he walked towards the giant bird step by step. The aura on his body was completely released.

Startled by this aura, the giant bird continuously screeched and flapped its wings. However, this was completely futile. Its power was not balanced, so it could not fly at all. It could only continuously roll around in the square and crash into the ground.

In order to avoid any unforeseen circumstances, Luo Yuan suddenly sped up and dashed over at high speed.

Sword!

Horizontal Slash!

Another wing was chopped off.

Luo Yuan rolled his body to avoid the strong wind. At the same time, his Zhanmadao pierced into the golden-winged roc's abdomen like lightning. The soft abdomen was not much of a hindrance to the dark blue level weapon. It pierced through smoothly. As Luo Yuan rolled, the Zhanmadao moved crazily, and the internal organs were instantly destroyed. And dragged out a horrifying wound.

The intense pain had completely stimulated its ferocity. Its sharp beak pecked at Luo Yuan crazily. Birds pecked like snakes. They were extremely fast and almost impossible to see with the naked eye. It was their most dangerous attack, let alone a blue level mutated beast.

There was a sound like firecrackers exploding!

Luo Yuan only had time to turn his body sideways before he heard another loud bang. The side of his body had been pecked, and a deep hole the size of a skull had appeared. The surrounding rubble was flying everywhere, and he felt a sharp pain in his back. He was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat.

There was a series of loud bangs behind him. Fortunately, the giant bird could not move easily. Luo Yuan rolled a few times and could no longer reach it. That was how he managed to escape.

Faced with the golden-winged roc that was on the verge of death, Luo Yuan wisely chose to avoid it.

Ten minutes later, a large amount of blood and mangled internal organs, in addition to the previous intense exercise, caused its strength to rapidly weaken. It lay powerlessly on the ground, the light in its eyes gradually faded, and its eyelids drooped.

To be on the safe side, Luo Yuan did not choose to take the risk. He took out the Desert Eagle, aimed at its head, and gently pulled the trigger.

The synthesized dark blue level bullet easily pierced through its head. Its body trembled and its wings flapped crazily a few times before coming to an abrupt stop.
