On the messy riverbank, waves splashed against the shore. Faint traces of blood spread out.
A group of explorers with soaked clothes were lying haphazardly next to the stranded ship.
A terrified man was leaning against the back of a stranded ship. Blood was gushing out of his chest along with the water.
He clutched at his chest, but it was useless. More and more blood flowed out.
"I just woke up and saw a group of annoying humans. Maybe this is fate." A huge black beast emerged from the river. It was as slender as a snake, and thick black fog surrounded its black scales.
Its neck was severed, and its head was missing.
A large amount of black and red fog gushed out from the severed head. The fog formed the shadow of a ferocious dragon at the top of its neck.
White thorns curved into barbs on its back.
Li Gang could no longer speak. His face was pale, and he found it difficult to breathe.
With a sinister laugh, the black beast took a deep breath.
The vitality on Li Gang's face quickly disappeared. His ruddy face turned pale. His skin withered and cracked. The gray cracks exposed to the air exuded a tragic aura.
His flesh peeled off layer by layer, revealing his hideous white bones. His eyes withered and rotted. His dark eye sockets were deep and dark.
Not only Li Gang, but the rest of the people around him, either alive or unconscious, were also completely drained of their life force. After two breaths, more than a dozen skeletons lay beside the stranded boat.
One of the whiskers on the head of the Sin Dragon that was floating in the sky became a bit more solid.
"Humans are as nutritious as ever. I need to eat more if I want to recover my strength."
The Wu Gorge Base City was built on a mountain.
The Wu Gorge Base City, located in the eastern region of Yuzhou, attracted many monster trainers after the Cataclysm. Because the mountain near the Wu Gorge Base City was well-preserved, there were many types of monsters.
Thirty miles away from the Wu Gorge Base City, there was a Mountain Spirit station. All kinds of buildings were built on the Mountain Spirit's body.
A thick black shadow flew across the sky. Sand and pebbles flew everywhere. Dense raindrops fell from the gloomy sky.
Whoosh …
The rain poured down.
There was still some time before nightfall, but the sky had already darkened.
The dark sky was as gloomy as ink. The torrential rain penetrated through the gaps between the leaves and killed the soil.
There were still two teams of monster trainers who had yet to return to the Mountain Spirit Station. "It's raining so heavily. Why don't we wait for a while before leaving?" a scarred man in the team said as he squinted at the storm outside the house.
Although they all had waterproof cloaks, and most of their familiars weren't afraid of the rain, they still didn't want to go out in this weather. Anyway, there were houses and small shops on the Mountain Spirit Station that sold food and drinks.
"Knock, knock, knock." Someone was knocking on the door.
Someone went to open the door. There was another group of people standing outside.
"Is something the matter? You guys haven't eaten yet, right? Come and eat with us. " The leader of the Rock Tiger Monster Hunting Group was a little surprised to see someone from the Green Vine Monster Hunting Group, but he still greeted them politely. Everyone usually hung out in this area, so they were quite familiar with each other.
"The alarm birds in our group have been ringing since just now," the leader of the Green Vine Monster Hunting Group said with a frown.
"Alarm bird?"
"Yes, it's our team's support familiar. It can predict danger."
"Since this afternoon, the alarm bird has been showing signs of uneasiness. Now … it's gone into hiding," the leader of the Green Vine Monster Hunting Group said helplessly as he pointed at a little red sparrow in the hands of a member behind him.
This was a monster that looked like a sparrow, but it was very different from a sparrow.
At this moment, the little red sparrow was hugging its head with its wings and squatting in the palm of its hand, revealing a strand of hair on its head.
Alarm … "The alarm bird suddenly let out a weak cry.
"We don't know where the danger is coming from, but there are only two of our teams and a few lone wolf monster trainers here. I hope we can work together to fight this unknown danger."
The leader of the Rock Tiger Monster Hunting Group laughed. "What danger can there be? There's a Lord-tier Mountain Spirit right under our feet. Even a normal Lord-tier Mountain Spirit wouldn't dare provoke us."
"I hope so …" the leader of the Green Vine Monster Hunting Group said helplessly. He had thought the same at first, but he still felt uneasy.
"Alright, then let's not stray too far away tonight. We'll take turns keeping watch …" Before he could finish, the ground beneath his feet shook violently, and a melodious cry echoed in the wild forest.
The leader of the Rock Tiger Monster Hunting Group leaned against the wall of the wooden house. His expression changed slightly. It sounded like a Mountain Spirit. Could there really be great danger?!
"Oh my god, what kind of monster is that?!"
"Run!"
The next moment, he saw the members of the Green Vine Monster Hunting Group looking at the sky and screaming in fear.
Boom!!!
A giant black claw fell from the sky and covered the original position of the Green Vine Monster Hunting Group.
The black scales were covered with sharp little barbs, and black fog surrounded the giant claw.
Blood seeped out from the gaps between the claws …
The leader of the Rock Tiger Monster Hunting Group was frozen stiff because he saw two balls of green light staring at him from the window.
.....
In the mountains behind the Southern Sky Group, Abba suddenly opened its eyes and stood up.
Nan Ju and Bei Zhi, who were counting oranges on its back, sat down on the ground.
Rumble —
Dark clouds rolled, and the crimson light dyed half the sky red.
Dead! Abba had sensed the death of a Mountain Spirit just now.
Stripey had never felt so nervous before, and it was furious. Although strictly speaking, those Mountain Spirits had nothing to do with it, it was because of its identity that those Mountain Spirits were willing to follow its master and "mingle" with it.
This was Stripey's pride and Stripey's pride.
Those Mountain Spirits were willing to follow it because of Abba's reputation. Now that they were dead, it was a slap to Abba's face.
"What's wrong, Abba?" Da Zi turned around from the top of the mountain. Lightning danced behind him, turning into dense arcs of electricity that intertwined in the sky.
"A Mountain Spirit is dead."
Gao Peng's expression changed when he heard the news. "A Mountain Spirit is dead? How is that possible? Mountain Spirits are Lord-tier. Even if a Lord-tier is stronger than a Mountain Spirit, they might not be able to kill it. Only a King-tier can pose a fatal threat to a Mountain Spirit. "
No matter what, this was a big deal.
"Can you find the location of that Mountain Spirit before it died?"
"It's not a big problem," Abba said in a low voice.
Gao Peng was furious. If someone died in the Mountain Spirit station, it would be a big problem. First, people would question the safety of the Mountain Spirit station, and it would affect his business.
