The numerous Membrane Wing Bats, which were still arrogant and majestic just a moment ago, suddenly disappeared. Even if these ferocious demon beasts saw with their own eyes that their companions were suddenly bitten and bleeding by the giant mouth, none of the Membrane Wing Bats showed any signs of revenge.
All the Membrane Wing Bats seemed to have suddenly turned into stone and were frozen in the air. Those sharp, ear-piercing, bloodthirsty howls also suddenly fell silent at this moment.
For a moment, Lu Chen and Atsu, who had fallen on the snow, did not make a sound, nor did the numerous Membrane Wing Bats in the air. Only the mountain-like majestic black shadow, with its huge mouth, gave off a shuddering and terrifying chewing sound.
"Crunch … crunch …"
It was the sound of fangs and bones rubbing against each other. Blood flowed and slowly dripped down …
The next moment, all the Membrane Wing Bats seemed to have woken up from a dream. In an instant, strange cries rang out. They seemed to have suddenly woken up and fluttered their wings to fly into the sky in horror. They seemed to desperately want to leave this place, to get away from the huge black shadow, the further the better.
A giant claw descended from the sky, and with a sharp whistling sound, it directly smashed into the group of Membrane Wing Bats. In an instant, there was a burst of chaotic banging sounds mixed with screams. Another seven or eight unlucky Membrane Wing Bats were smashed by this giant claw, and as if struck by lightning, they fell from the sky one after another.
Lu Chen and Atsu saw it clearly from the side. They saw that the Membrane Wing Bats that fell had broken bones and tendons. Before they fell to the ground, they could see that their bodies were strangely twisted. After falling to the ground, after struggling a few times on the snow, they all became stiff and motionless. It seemed that they had already died.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the remaining Membrane Wing Bats desperately flapped their wings and flew far away, as if they were fleeing for their lives. One by one, they rushed back to the canyon and dove into the bottomless, dark crevice at the fastest speed, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
It was quiet outside the canyon. There was only an unusually tall figure standing in the snow, with its back facing them.
At this moment, even Lu Chen and Atsu did not dare to move rashly, for fear that they would suddenly alarm or anger this terrifying monster.
At this moment, Lu Chen suddenly felt a chill on his face.
He reached out to touch his cheek and found that it was slightly wet. He then looked up and saw that between the blue sky and the snow-capped mountains, there were faint and tiny specks of white floating down.
A gust of wind blew from afar, bringing with it a slight chill.
It began to snow again.
…
The snow was not heavy, and the wind was very light. It was probably just the beginning. For Lu Chen and Atsu who were lying on the snowy ground, none of this was important at the moment. Their attention was focused on the gigantic monster in front of them.
Lu Chen was a little nervous. For such a monster that could easily scare away those Membrane Wing Bats and even treat them as food, the strength of Lu Chen and Atsu could not resist it at all. The only thing they could do was probably to see if they could find a chance to escape.
Just as he was thinking about how to find a chance to escape, Atsu, who was originally lying beside him, suddenly stood up.
Lu Chen was taken aback and quickly reached out to pull Atsu. He had not seen the true face of the monster in front of him, but there was no doubt that the monster was powerful and terrifying. He was a little worried that Atsu was too frightened and would react excessively. If he provoked the monster in advance, he was afraid that it would immediately be a disaster.
However, it seemed that Atsu just stood up. The appearance of this black dog also looked a little strange. It seemed to be a little confused, but also a little excited. It stared at the huge shadow, and even its breathing became a lot heavier.
Although he was a little surprised by Atsu's performance, seeing that Atsu did not make any drastic moves for the time being, Lu Chen was still relieved. Only then did he turn his attention back to the giant monster.
After the Membrane Wing Bats fled, the giant monster that suddenly appeared turned its head and looked in the direction of the dark crack in the canyon. It did not have any intention to chase after them. After a while, it turned its head, then took two steps forward and came to the corpses of the Membrane Wing Bats that were shot down on the snow. It lowered its head and began to chew.
It was also at this moment that Lu Chen finally saw the appearance of the giant monster. He was shocked. The giant monster that appeared in front of him was impressively a giant wolf with an unusually large body.
"In that canyon, there once appeared a giant wolf with the corpses of humans in its mouth."
This paragraph suddenly came to Lu Chen's mind. That was what Huo Yan said to him back then, and it was also the biggest basis for them to determine that there might be a secret path to the northern human territory here.
Lu Chen had never seen such a huge monster wolf in his life. Even after Atsu had advanced, it was far inferior to this giant wolf. At best, the body of Atsu was only one-fifth the size of this giant wolf.
Its fur was greyish-white, and it had sharp teeth. At this moment, this giant wolf did not seem to notice that there were two living creatures in the snow. It just lowered its head and gnawed on the Membrane Wing Bats that it had shot down. It ate happily, and the sound of crunching that made people's scalp tingle was endless.
Seeing the appearance of this giant wolf monster beast, a glimmer of hope suddenly appeared in Lu Chen's heart. He slowly stood up from the snow, and then pulled Atsu, preparing to take this opportunity to try and sneak away quietly.
Unexpectedly, Atsu did not move at all, and it did not have the obedience that it usually had towards him.
This black dog just stared at the giant wolf. Not only did it not leave, but it even took a step towards the giant wolf.
Lu Chen was taken aback, and quickly reached out to grab the fur on Atsu's back, not letting it go any further. But just these few actions, coupled with Atsu's subconscious struggle, suddenly seemed to have alarmed the giant wolf monster over there. It suddenly raised its head and looked in the direction of Lu Chen and Atsu.
It was a pair of deep green giant eyes, with a cold aura that seemed to be unique to the Great Snowy Mountain. It instantly enveloped Lu Chen and Atsu.
A chill made the two of them shiver uncontrollably.
For a moment, Lu Chen wanted to grab Atsu and run away, but in the end, he forcibly endured it.
How to put it, in the face of such a monster, the hope of escaping was really not big. On the contrary, it was better not to further provoke it for the time being. After all, this giant wolf monster did not directly attack them like it did those membrane-winged bats. Although this monster was too terrifying and difficult to predict, it was better to keep quiet.
But Atsu seemed to be particularly strange today, different from the past. Under such heavy pressure, not only did it not retreat, but after hesitating for a while, it actually walked towards the monster again.
And this time, Atsu did not even stop, and actually walked straight towards it.
Lu Chen was stunned. He reached out to grab it, but he could not. At such a dangerous and shocking juncture, he could only watch Atsu walk past.
Slowly, with a hint of a test, and at the same time, under the cold gaze of the giant beast, Atsu slowly walked to the feet of the giant wolf.
Its body was a little trembling, as if it was still a little afraid, but there was still a stronger force driving it.
The giant wolf looked at this "little" thing coldly, and did not seem to have any intention of making a move.
Watching from a distance, Lu Chen, who had no time to stop it, was suddenly shocked. He only felt that Atsu and the giant wolf monster were vaguely similar.
