"Pa pa pa … …"
In the sky, a flock of Red-eyed Crows flapped their wings and flew past.
After a while, they flew back and circled around the sky a few times. Some of them landed on the branches and searched carefully, but in the end, they didn't find Yue Yang and the royal swordswoman who were hiding under the leaves of the plants. They flew up one after another and flew in another direction.
Ever since Yue Yang killed the first Red-eyed Crow, within a day and night, the flock of Red-eyed Crows had flown over Yue Yang's head at least twenty times.
It was very obvious that the Ranker hiding in the Eagle's Cry Valley was an expert in controlling crows.
In order to find Yue Yang and the royal swordswoman, this hidden Ranker had controlled at least two hundred crows. They took turns to search everywhere, flying over Yue Yang's head again and again. However, they were all confused by Yue Yang's disguise, so there was no result at all. The royal swordswoman had abandoned the armour that covered her entire body. Just like Yue Yang, she was wearing the clothes of a forest scout that was made of leaves. As long as the flock of crows flew over, the two of them would quickly hide in the bushes, or crouch down and not move. Then, the Red-eyed Crows in the sky wouldn't be able to detect their presence.
Although the royal swordswoman was still angry at Yue Yang's wolf-like actions, she secretly admired this brat's craftiness in her heart.
Using tree branches and leaves to make clothes as a disguise was indeed a good idea!
Forget about crows, even a human wouldn't be able to find them.
In a rapidly flowing stream, countless Iron-clawed Rock Eagles let out chaotic cries and scattered in all directions. A flying dragon with a tall, fleshy head carried a black-robed man on its back as it spiralled downwards. Yue Yang and the royal swordswoman hurriedly hid between the crevices of the rocks, quietly observing the black-robed man's movements. He took out a black skull and muttered an incantation … The black skull emitted bursts of black fog, which then condensed into a ball. The black-robed man then threw the ball of black fog onto the ground. The black fog dissipated, and with a crackling sound, strange skeletons were summoned.
Some of the skeletons even carried items from when they were alive, such as a tattered glove, a silver chain covered in black blood, a rusty sword …
When the royal swordswoman saw this, her face sank.
Yue Yang didn't understand what was going on, but she was very clear that she had found her target.
These skeletons were the people she was looking for, the Royal Exploration Team! However, they were all dead and had been turned into skeletons by the black-robed man using the terrifying Undead Summoning Technique! So, the person who caused the Royal Exploration Team to be annihilated and the person who controlled the crows was this Necromancer!
However, why would a Necromancer that could only be found in the Demon Abyss appear in the Soaring Dragon Continent?
How long had this black-robed necromancer been hiding in the Eagle's Cry Stream? What was his motive?
"My Undead Servants, move out and find those two living people …" The black-robed man muttered, his skinny hand summoning balls of green phosphorescence, projecting them onto more than ten skeletons.
These skeletons changed shape, changed colour and became bigger under the green phosphorescence. In less than ten seconds, they turned from Level 1 skeletons to Level 2 skeletons.
Among them, the leader skeleton that had absorbed a few balls of green phosphorescence had even strengthened into a Level 3 Iron Skeleton.
This Iron Skeleton Leader had long bone blades growing out of both of its arms.
The royal swordswoman knew that this was the Necromancer's Soul Control Technique. As long as there was a living thing nearby, it would be sensed by these skeletons. Her camouflage of branches and leaves had lost its effect. Fortunately, the skeletons' sensing range was limited, only twenty to thirty metres. Now that they were separated by the stream, they would immediately be discovered by these skeletons.
She stretched out her hand and lightly drew a circle on Yue Yang's back, indicating that she was ready to launch a surprise attack.
The distance was a little difficult, so the success rate of a surprise attack was not high. However, she still had to give it a try. Otherwise, once this black-robed man riding on the Poison Wyvern rose into the sky, she would not be able to do anything to him. She estimated that this black-robed Necromancer's strength was around that of a Level 6 [Elder]. If the two of them succeeded in their surprise attack, there was a high possibility that they could kill him. The only problem was that this fellow was extremely cautious. The wyvern had landed on a protruding rock. As long as the wyvern jumped up, it would be able to escape into the sky.
In a battle in the sky, other than the Bloody Queen, he and the big pervert could only watch with folded arms.
It would be slightly difficult for the Gold-ranked Level 3 Bloody Queen to kill this Bronze-ranked Level 6 Poison Wyvern. Furthermore, there was still a Necromancer with the strength of a Level 6 [Elder] on the Poison Wyvern's back.
"Shh!" Yue Yang grabbed the royal swordswoman's small hand. Just as she was about to struggle free, he made a shushing gesture, indicating that there was a situation and that she should not move.
"…" The royal swordswoman glared at him with her tiger-like eyes. However, in the end, she still obediently obeyed and did not dare to move.
She wanted to pull her small hand back, but Yue Yang pretended that he did not know. He grabbed onto her hand and did not let go, seizing the opportunity to take advantage of her. The royal swordswoman really wanted to kick him into the stream, but the black-robed man was still there. If she kicked him out, she would lose the chance to launch a surprise attack, so she could only give up. At first, she still wanted to punch him, but a second later, she completely forgot about it. She anxiously hugged onto Yue Yang's back, her towering breasts pressing against him unconsciously, pressing his body lower and lower.
This was because, following the direction of Yue Yang's gaze, she discovered that on the precipitous rock wall, there was a terrifying creature that was absolutely still.
It did not move at all, and its aura was completely concealed. It stuck to the rock wall like a rock.
Its target was the black-robed man and the Poison Wyvern he was riding on. However, the vigilant black-robed man and the Poison Wyvern could not sense the existence of this terrifying creature at all … When the Poison Wyvern flapped its huge wings and carried the black-robed man up slowly, the terrifying creature suddenly moved like lightning. Its two huge sickle-shaped arms were like two black lightning bolts, cutting through space and capturing the Poison Wyvern's huge body in its arms. The Bronze-ranked Level 6 Poison Wyvern could not even struggle, and could only wail in pain.
That terrifying creature immediately opened its huge, sharp teeth and started to chew on the Poison Wyvern's head. It did not kill it first, but directly ate its prey alive.
The Poison Wyvern's blood-curdling screams resounded throughout the whole valley …
At this moment, the whole valley was dead silent. All the creatures were so scared that they did not know where to hide.
While the terrifying creature was eating the Poison Wyvern alive, the black-robed man was struggling. His body was also captured by the terrifying creature's huge arms, and he could not break free no matter how hard he struggled. When the terrifying creature saw that the little worm that it had captured was actually struggling, it immediately stretched its head out to bite the black-robed man's head … The black-robed man's movements were extremely fast. He immediately took out a teleportation orb and crushed it with his skinny black hand.
The teleportation light pillar flashed in a second.
However, the moment he teleported away, the terrifying creature became angry. It raised one of its sickle-like arms and swung it …
Pa!
The lower half of the black-robed man who was teleporting was actually chopped off by the terrifying creature in the teleportation space. The teleportation light pillar was also shattered, and half of his body fell to the ground with a 'pa' sound.
If he did not escape fast enough, this Level 6 [Elder] black robed man would probably be killed instantly!
Yue Yang and the royal swordswoman felt their scalps tingle. This terrifying creature was actually the legendary Gold-ranked Level 7 Reaper Mantis that was already extinct. Furthermore, it was a Gold King Beast.
The guy from another world was sweating profusely, and shouted in his heart: Oh my god!
Who said that the Reaper Mantis was already extinct? There was one right in front of their eyes. Its body was a few times bigger than a Wyvern, and was practically bigger than a fighter jet. Such a terrifying creature actually existed in the Soaring Dragon Continent? Luckily it did not fly out of Gui Jian Chou, otherwise everyone would have been eaten by it!
That Bronze-ranked Level 6 Poison Wyvern did not even have the time to struggle as it was devoured by the Reaper Mantis … Meeting its natural enemy, this Poison Wyvern was really unlucky!
After the Reaper Mantis ate the Poison Wyvern's head, it suddenly threw the Wyvern's huge corpse away.
With a flap of its wings, it instantly soared into the sky and disappeared without a trace.
If the Wyvern's corpse had not fallen to the ground in front of them, Yue Yang and the royal swordswoman would have suspected that the Reaper Mantis had actually appeared before!
"Looks like it really likes to eat the Wyvern's magic crystal …" Yue Yang secretly thought that it was a close shave. Luckily he had handed the Wyvern's magic crystal to Yue Bing for safekeeping before he appeared. Otherwise, the Poison Wyvern would not be the only one that was ambushed by the Reaper Mantis.
"It's a female mantis. I wonder if it has laid eggs. If we can find the egg sheath, then we can definitely find the Reaper Mantis' larva!" The royal swordswoman was a little moved. The larva of the Reaper Mantis was a Gold-ranked beast, its future growth was limitless. Hearing this, Yue Yang jumped in fright and hurriedly waved his hands: "If you want to die, go ahead, don't drag me down with you. I haven't enjoyed my blissful sexual life yet!"
"You coward!" The royal swordswoman was annoyed. He was just saying it casually, did he really think that there was a Reaper Mantis' larva waiting for him?
"I think that the wisest thing to do now is to get rid of that black-robed man!" Yue Yang had always been used to bullying the weak. Even a persimmon would only bully the weak!
"But he has already escaped, how are we going to find him? Who knows where the hell he is hiding. " The royal swordswoman now felt that it was a little dangerous to walk around the Eagle's Cry Valley. After all, there was a Gold-ranked Level 7 Reaper Mantis lying in ambush somewhere, ready to launch a sneak attack at any time. This kind of feeling was too creepy.
"Look …" Yue Yang pointed at the skeletons that were currently dragging the black-robed man's broken lower body, as well as the gigantic wyvern's corpse.
"That fellow will still rush back? Alright, we'll do as you say this time. We'll wait! " The royal swordswoman felt that the necromancer was really unlucky. First, he was ambushed by the Reaper Mantis, causing a Bronze-ranked Level 6 Poison Wyvern to die. Now, he was about to be ambushed by her and the big pervert together. Under these two attacks, it would be hard for this fellow to not die even if he wanted to!
Although the royal swordswoman was still extremely angry at Yue Yang, she had no choice but to stick close to him.
The two of them stuck close to each other, their bodies leaning against each other. In order for the ambush to succeed, the two of them quietly hid in the crevices of the rocks. Towards Yue Yang's wolfish expression that he was secretly enjoying, the royal swordswoman was extremely angry. In the end, she was afraid that she would not be able to control herself and beat him up, affecting the ambush, so she could only pretend that she did not see it.
Just like that, the two of them did not move at all, waiting for the heavily injured black-robed man to return to the stream.
After about half an hour, a man in a grey robe stood on the back of a gigantic Iron-winged Crow King, accompanying the black-robed man, who only had half of his body left, back to the sky above the stream.
That black-robed man scolded angrily, "I'm really too unlucky. It wasn't easy for me to get this new body of mine. I didn't think that in less than half a month, it would be chopped into two by the Reaper Mantis. I reckon that without a year's time, I won't be able to recover to my original state. Didn't Master Suo Ge say that the Gui Jian Chou didn't have the Reaper Mantis? Damn it, if I didn't run fast, I reckon that I would have ended up like my wyvern, having my head bitten off while I was still alive. Lu Dun, do me a favor and reattach my body! "
The man in grey laughed weirdly and said, "You're unlucky. I've lived in this Gui Jian Chou for close to ten years, but I've never met a Reaper Mantis. I reckon that it's your wyvern's fault. Who asked you to be so smug that you had to contract a wyvern as your mount! Eh, why is there another Gold King Beast? "
"What Gold King Beast?" The black-robed man still had lingering fears. When he heard it, he was so scared that his whole body trembled.
"Don't be afraid, that's my Bloody Queen. I guarantee that she doesn't like to eat human heads, especially dead people's heads!" Yue Yang's figure appeared behind the black-robed man. His smile was as bright as the sun.
Of course, in the eyes of the black-robed man, it was more like a demon's smile …
