The Dark Crows, who were already burning with rage, did not hold back. They defeated every one that came out. Under Aoki's precise orders, the Lades fell one by one.
But as time passed, the Lades came out faster and faster. Aoki, who finally realized that the situation was not right, hurriedly stopped the Dark Crows that were continuously attacking. This was clearly a rat's nest. If they did not retreat now, they would not be able to retreat later.
Facing so many Lades, Aoki naturally chose to temporarily avoid them. Thus, the man and the elf began to run …
The Lades, whose average level was as high as 20, carried a few smaller Lades and chased after Aoki relentlessly. The smaller Lades chased even more closely. The Lades, whose bodies were the size of small dogs, were blocked by the dense shrubs on the ground from beginning to end.
Realizing this, Aoki ran towards the dense shrubs. Wearing the Rocket Team uniform, he could effectively reduce the damage caused by the thorns on the shrubs.
Aoki was busy running, but the Dark Crows did not have such considerations. With the Lades' speed, they simply could not catch up to them. They would occasionally use some skills, raising wind, and evil waves, one after another. The Lades became the targets for the Dark Crows to train their skills.
The pursuing Lades finally reacted. They had been unable to catch up to Aoki, but their numbers had been sharply reduced by the Dark Crows' frenzied attacks.
The Lades, who had given up their pursuit, angrily burrowed into the ground to avoid being attacked by the Dark Crows again.
"Huff huff …" Aoki, who had stopped running, placed his hands on his knees. His intense breathing was like a bellows. His chest rose and fell, and his heart seemed to be about to explode.
"My body is still too weak." Aoki, who was panting, could not help but think. Although he had been recovering and training during this period of time, running for such a long time still made him almost unable to catch his breath.
Following the rise and fall of his chest, fresh blood seeped out of the gauze on his freshly bandaged arm. The flowing sweat slid down the wound, and waves of heart-piercing pain came from his arm, madly stimulating Aoki's nerves.
It was only now that they could look at their surroundings. In order to quickly shake off the Lades, they had severely deviated from their original path. What they needed to do now was to return to their original path.
After resting for a while, Aoki began to treat the wound on his hand. Referring to the marker on the map, he found that it was a little far from the mark. If it was any further, it wouldn't be marked on the map.
"Splash ~" The crisp sound of flowing water could be heard intermittently from afar, and a faint water vapor filled the air.
He noticed that there was a small waterfall here, which was the furthest location on the map.
After thinking for a while, Aoki decided to go to the water source to rest. The wound that had just ruptured started to bleed again. The wound had already started to turn white. This was the result of soaking in sweat.
Following the sound of flowing water, Aoki brought the Dark Raven along. At the same time, he did not forget to take out a few energy cubes from his belt and feed them to the exhausted Dark Raven.
After passing through a forest, they finally arrived at the waterfall. Aoki was shocked by the scene in front of him. The water from the waterfall was flowing straight down, and the towering ancient trees were verdant and lush. The sunlight that was originally blocked by the trees successfully shone here. The water vapor and the light refracted, forming small rainbows.
Noticing the arrival of Greenwood and Dark Crows, the elves that were originally playing in the water all dove back into the water. The birds that were searching for food also flapped their wings and flew away as if they were fleeing for their lives. The originally lively little valley suddenly became cold and cheerless.
Aoki didn't care much about this. He minded his own business and continued to walk into this undeveloped valley. The water vapor that hit him in the face brought a trace of coolness and comfort.
When all the elves were present, only one was left. It was lying on the riverside in a daze. Its pink little tail was in the water, and its eyes were staring straight ahead.
This pink little elf was the Dazed Beast.
Aoki looked at the Dazed Beast that was not afraid of him in surprise. As they got closer, the Dazed Beast's figure in the mist became more and more obvious.
"What's this?" Greenwood cried out in surprise when he finally got a clear look at it.
Although the Dazed Beast's body was still pink, there was a trace of white in the pink, and it was whiter than the other Dazed Beasts.
Dazed Flash Beast?
A faint light flashed in his eyes. The chip was activated, and the Dazed Beast's data appeared in front of him.

Green aptitude? And it's fading?
Aoki was shocked by the Dazed Beast's skills. What were these skills that he saw? It was like a storage of esper skills.
Especially teleportation. It was a very useful skill no matter the time, whether it was escaping or chasing. As long as it had this skill, even if it was just a normal Dazed Beast, its value would be much higher than normal Dazed Beasts. It seemed that this Dazed Beast's talent in esper skills was top-notch.
The Dazed Beast glanced at the human and the black flying elf in front of it, but it did not move.
It was already used to this, because it was different from other Dazed Beasts since it was young. Although the Dazed Beast was not a particularly xenophobic sprite, there would be a trace of strangeness every time they communicated with it. When other sprites looked at it, there would also be a strange look in their eyes, as if it was some rare species. It was just a Dazed Beast.
Not only that, its personality was completely different from the rest of the Dazed Beasts. Dazed Beasts were lazy. Even if an enemy appeared, they would be too lazy to move. However, this Dazed Beast was very active. If an enemy appeared, it would be the first to rush up and fight. After fighting again and again, it realized that it especially liked fighting!
After living with the rest of the Dazed Beasts for two years, it was finally excluded because of its excessive activity. When all the Dazed Beasts were sunbathing, it was training. When all the Dazed Beasts were napping, it was training. Even when all the Dazed Beasts were in a daze, it was training. It did not fit in with the rest of the Dazed Beasts.
After many failed attempts to negotiate with the clan leader, it finally chose to leave alone, hoping that it could change somewhere else. It hoped that it could learn to be like the other Dazed Beasts, daydreaming for an entire day. It hoped that it could return to its own clan again.
Therefore, when Aoki and Dark Crow approached it, it did not move at all. This was because it had been imitating what a real Dazed Beast should be like. What would a real Dazed Beast do in this situation? Its active mind made it unable to stop thinking. Now, it was becoming more and more like a Dazed Beast. Speaking of which, it might be a joke. A dazed beast was actually learning to imitate a real dazed beast.
However, to it, this was all it wanted. It hoped that it could gain the approval of its clan. It hoped that it would not be alone again.
However, Aoki did not understand this. What he saw was an amazingly talented Dazed Beast. Other than its appearance, it did not look any different from the other Dazed Beasts. However, without any hesitation, Aoki decided to tame this Dazed Beast.
"Dark Crow, go. Greet your future companion and use Evil Wave!" Aoki said to Dark Crow with a smile. He was determined to tame this Dazed Beast.
Whether it was its green quality or the skills it had, it was enough for Aoki to act.
"Caw!" Dark Crow nodded. It was very excited to have a new companion soon. However, it would not hold back in battle. If it could not even withstand one of its skills, it would mean that it was not qualified to be its companion.
Thick Evil Wave appeared around Dark Crow. Then, it was followed by black strands that quickly gathered together. After a whole morning of training, although the Evil Wave skill could not be used at will, it was still much better than it was in the morning.
The Evil Wave skill was the bane of elves. Therefore, when the Evil Wave gathered, the Dazed Beast immediately felt it. As the energy it hated the most, its heart was filled with disgust. It dropped its disguise and its originally dull face suddenly became serious. Its big eyes even lit up.
"Eh?" Seeing the change in the Dazed Beast, Aoki could not help but exclaim. This Dazed Beast was indeed different.
However, this was not the time to be in a daze. The Dark Crow's Evil Wave was completed in an instant. As the Evil Wave spread, its target was the Dazed Beast.
The Dazed Beast did not panic at all. Although it hated the Evil Wave, its years of battle experience allowed it to deal with it calmly. It opened its mouth slightly and a stream of water shot out from its mouth. It was like a bullet from a gun. It was fast and fierce. It passed through the Evil Wave and went straight for Dark Crow.
"Bang!" The Evil Wave slammed into the Dazed Beast's body. The Dazed Beast couldn't help but let out a roar as the Evil Wave dealt double the damage. The Dazed Beast's battle intent and ferocity gradually surfaced in its eyes. Originally, it had tried to imitate the Dazed Beast by hiding its true nature. However, the Dark Crow's attack had directly stimulated its true nature.
"Bang!" The Water Gun skill also successfully hit the Dark Crow. It hesitated to use the Evil Wave skill. Moreover, it did not expect the Dazed Beast to not even dodge.
