After driving the carriage out of the five kilometer radius of Kuit Canyon, Connor, who felt that the Magi of the Golovin tribe would not be able to chase after him, relaxed slightly. His large hands reached into his robes, where he had hidden the fifty or so space rings that he had taken from the wooden stronghold.
Just as the fiery Connor was hesitating whether or not to take stock of his gains in the carriage, his sharp spiritual sense suddenly discovered that a black dot had appeared a thousand meters above him!
Connor, who had just relaxed a little, immediately tensed up again because of the appearance of this black dot. He sat in the carriage and raised his eyes to observe the sky.
Even though this black dot was conservatively estimated to be a thousand meters above the ground, and was covered by clouds, Connor was still able to see this black dot clearly with the help of Connor's alchemy binoculars.
It was a majestic giant eagle that was over two meters long. It was flying freely in the sky, its cold eyes looking down at the ground from time to time, as if looking for its prey. It was different from the white-headed giant eagles that were commonly seen on the Odin Icefield. The giant eagle above Connor's head was a giant golden eagle, and looked even more valiant and terrifying than the white-headed giant eagles!
"Rank 4 magical beast, giant golden eagle!"
After using the binoculars to observe the giant golden eagle a thousand meters above his head, Connor's heart sank. He put down the binoculars and muttered in a low voice:
That's right, the giant golden eagle above his head was a magical beast that was equivalent to a rank 1 human Magus. As the overlord of the Odin Icefield, the white-headed giant eagle was originally an extremely valiant existence. When they broke through to the level of a rank 4 magical beast, which was equivalent to an official Magus, the color of the white-headed giant eagle's feathers would change from white to gold, and its strength would greatly increase.
At this moment, this giant golden eagle had appeared above him and had been following him. Connor would not simply think that this was a coincidence or an accident!
There was an eighty to ninety percent chance that this rank 4 magical beast, the giant golden eagle, was the helper that that bastard Živkovychi had summoned with his copper whistle.
Thinking of this, Connor felt some regret. Although he did not know how Živkovychi had managed to get such an arrogant giant golden eagle to become his helper, if he had known earlier that Živkovychi had this ability, he would have taken advantage of the situation and killed Živkovychi while he was down. He would not have given him the chance to use his copper whistle to summon the giant golden eagle!
Although he was filled with regret, there was no medicine for regret in this world. Now, Connor had to face the pursuit of the overlord of the Odin Icefield, the giant golden eagle!
Taking a deep breath, Connor forced himself to throw the anger in his heart to the back of his mind. He calmed himself down and began to carefully watch the giant golden eagle in the sky, which could rush over at any time, while quickly thinking of his next strategy. Although Connor had never fought with a magical beast like the giant golden eagle before, he still had some understanding of the strength of the giant golden eagle from the records he had read.
As the overlord of the Odin Icefield, the rank 4 Giant Golden Eagle was definitely not something that an ordinary rank 1 Magus could deal with. If they encountered it, they would either die or be heavily injured. Even a rank 2 Magus would only be able to repel it and not kill it!
Not only was the giant golden eagle extremely intelligent, it was not the slightest bit faster than a human Magus. Its body was also extremely tough, and its feathers were its natural defensive magic items. It was very difficult for anything below the peak of rank 2 magic items to cause any damage to the giant golden eagle.
In addition, the speed of the giant golden eagle could be ranked in the top ten of the fastest magical beasts in the Magus World. It was only slightly slower than the speed of sound. Its most powerful attack was to dive at high speed from the sky, using its own speed to create an extremely terrifying impact force. It would then use the impact force on its claws and beak. There had once been a rank 1 Magus who had died tragically under the attack of the giant golden eagle.
As far as Connor was concerned, facing the pursuit of the giant golden eagle on the Odin Icefield head-on was the stupidest way. Breaking away from its pursuit was the only viable option. However, the giant golden eagle was so fast that even if Connor flew with the help of the Black Magic Robe, he definitely wouldn't be able to outrun the giant golden eagle, let alone this carriage.
Just as Connor was racking his brains to recall what he had read in the books, how the Magi who had encountered the Golden Headed Eagle had dealt with it, the Golden Headed Eagle that had been hovering above Connor all this time no longer gave him the chance to think. It let out a resonant eagle's cry and dove down towards the carriage Connor was in from a thousand meters in the air.
Although Connor had long been on guard against the giant golden eagle's killing move, the giant golden eagle's speed was just too fast. By the time Connor reacted, the giant golden eagle was already a hundred meters away from Connor from a thousand meters in the air!
There was no time to think. The only thing Connor could do was to sacrifice the carriage to save the king. The Black Magic Robe on his body flashed, and he jumped down from the carriage that was speeding away. Although Connor's movements were very decisive and didn't have the slightest bit of sloppiness, it was a bit too late. The giant golden eagle's huge body had already crashed into the carriage with an unimaginable force.
"Boom!"
Under such a violent impact, Connor's pitiful carriage was directly smashed into pieces. The horse pulling the carriage didn't even have the chance to whine before its body was completely dismembered. It was a mess of flesh and blood, and it looked too horrible to look at!
With the carriage and horse in such a state, Connor who had jumped out of the carriage in advance didn't have it easy either. Although he wasn't as miserable as the carriage and horse because he had jumped out of the carriage early, it was also because of the huge impact when the giant golden eagle swooped down. His body lost balance and fell directly to the ground. He rolled no less than five times on the ground before barely coming to a stop.
"Cough!"
Connor spat out a mouthful of fresh blood mixed with pieces of his internal organs. Although his entire body was in unbearable pain, and there wasn't a single spot that wasn't hurting, and his internal organs had also suffered quite a bit of impact, under the threat of the giant golden eagle, Connor still managed to overcome the pain in his body. He quickly stood up and dashed towards the forest three hundred meters away. According to the records, the best way for a Magus to encounter a giant golden eagle was to hide in the forest and use the forest to counteract the giant golden eagle's dive. Fortunately, Connor just happened to have such a forest nearby!
