The Swamp Single Horned Crocodile was resting in the swamp a few hundred feet away. When it noticed the Lion King rushing towards it, it was scared to death. The next moment —
"Pa Pa Pa!"
It crazily swam towards the depths of the swamp, like a missile on the ground, shooting forward. Its four limbs fiercely slapped against the muddy water, and its giant tail danced like a giant python, stirring up a muddy splash. Then, it turned into mist and hid its body.
"Roar!"
The running Lion King let out an earth-shattering roar. It wanted to use the roar to scare the Swamp Single Horned Crocodile. However, the Lion King sped up and quickly shortened the distance between it and the Swamp Single Horned Crocodile.
"Growl growl!"
The Swamp Single Horned Crocodile let out an unpleasant roar deep in its throat, expressing its anger and fear. It was just basking in the sun outside. Who did it provoke? Now that it was being chased by the Lion King, how could it not be angry?
"Pa Pa Scared!"
However, anger was useless. It had to escape back to the cave in the depths of the swamp to have a chance of survival. However, it was too late. Hence, it made up its mind and plunged into the swamp mud. Its four limbs crazily dug into the mud. In the blink of an eye, its huge body, which was ten feet long, drilled into the mud and disappeared.
"Puff!"
When the Lion King saw the Swamp Single Horned Crocodile trying to sneak into the mud, its golden eyes revealed a look of contempt. It opened its mouth and shot a Desolate Energy Bomb the size of a human head into the swamp area that the Swamp Single Horned Crocodile had drilled into.
"Boom!"
The Desolate Energy Bomb exploded, blowing up the mud within a hundred feet radius of the swamp area, revealing a huge round hole. At the same time, a huge black body was blasted out. Who else could it be other than the Swamp Single Horned Crocodile?
"Growl growl!"
Before the Swamp Single Horned Crocodile could sneak away, it was hit by the explosion of the Desolate Energy Bomb and was blasted out. It was seriously injured. If it wasn't for its thick skin and strong defense, it would have died. Even so, it was still seriously injured and screamed in pain.
"Pa pa pa!"
As the Swamp Single-Horned Crocodile saw the approaching Lion King, its dark red eyes were filled with fear and anger. It was a Level 5 crocodile, and it already had a certain level of intelligence. It knew that if it didn't escape, it would definitely become the Lion King's food. Therefore, it risked its heavily injured body to escape.
"Eh? You think you can escape? " Xiao Chen was slightly surprised to see that the swamp crocodile was still able to escape from six hundred zhang away. He immediately said, "Da Huang, hurry up and chase after it. I'm sure it's running towards its nest. If we let it escape into its nest, it'll be very difficult to find it."
"Big Brother, it won't be able to escape. Even if it escapes into its nest, I'll blast it out. Who knows, I might even blast out a nest of swamp crocodiles. Hahaha!" The Lion King said disapprovingly. He still wanted to catch a few more swamp crocodiles for a meal.
"Chirp!"
Suddenly, a bird's cry came from the sky. Following that, the Golden Roc swooped down at lightning speed, flying close to the swamp. Its huge, sharp claws reached out and easily grabbed the Swamp Single-Horned Crocodile. Then, it lifted the crocodile into the air.
"Eh?" The Lion King saw that the Golden Roc had taken down the Swamp Single-Horned Crocodile before him. He was slightly taken aback. Following that, he cried out, "Little Gold stole my business. That's immoral. Forget it, I'm a magnanimous person. I won't bicker with Little Gold. Hahaha!"
"Little Gold is indeed an excellent hunter." Xiao Chen expressed his admiration for the Golden Roc's dexterity. Suddenly, his expression changed. He looked towards the depths of the desolate plains and asked curiously, "Da Huang, do you hear the sound of many dire beasts running?"
"Yes, I feel countless dire beasts running out from the depths of the desolate plains." The Lion King listened attentively for a moment and gave Xiao Chen an affirmative answer. However, he did not feel any dire beasts above the seventh grade. Hence, he jokingly transmitted his voice to Xiao Chen.
"Big Brother, do you think they are here to welcome us? Or did they know that I was hungry and came to us on their own accord? Hahaha!
"Welcome us? Do you think that's possible? " Xiao Chen was a little speechless as he asked. He then voiced out his thoughts, "I think something must have happened in the desolate plains. Otherwise, there wouldn't be such a rare beast tide. Let's prepare for war."
"How dare they disturb me while I'm eating my roasted crocodile. I'll kill them all!" The Lion King was filled with killing intent as he rushed towards the depths of the desolate plains. It was obvious that he wanted to start a massacre.
"Rumble! Rumble! "
About five kilometers away from Xiao Chen and the Lion King, there were indeed countless dire beasts appearing in the middle regions of the desolate plains. However, they were grouped according to their species. They were running around in the middle regions of the desolate plains like soldiers patrolling the area. It was an incredible sight.
These countless dire beasts were at least third grade. Most of them were third grade. There were also quite a number of fourth grade, about a third of the total. There were even fewer fifth grade desolate beasts, about a tenth of the total. There were even fewer sixth grade desolate beasts, probably less than a hundredth of the total. As for seventh grade desolate beasts, there were currently no signs of them.
Xiao Chen and the Lion King quickly saw the dense horde of dire beasts in the distance. Xiao Chen was very surprised by the sheer number of dire beasts. He was even more surprised by the strength of the dire beasts. This was especially so when he realized that the dire beasts seemed to be blocking the way, preventing humans from entering the depths of the desolate plains. This made him even more surprised.
Strange!
It was truly a little strange!
"Da Huang, has such a situation happened in the past? Why do I feel that the dire beasts seem to have received some sort of order to guard the middle regions of the desolate plains? Could something big have happened in the inner regions of the desolate plains? "Xiao Chen asked Da Huang his doubts and explained his thoughts.
"I have never seen such a situation in the past." The Lion King answered truthfully. He was also puzzled. Suddenly, he said excitedly, "Big Brother, something strange has happened in the inner regions of the desolate plains. This is exactly what we want. This way, we will have a great harvest. Who knows, we might even get a peerless divine sword. At that time, we will have another powerful little brother. Big Brother, you will also become the world's number one expert. Kekeke!"
"Peerless divine sword?"
Xiao Chen was a little speechless. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Da Huang, do you think that the world is filled with peerless divine swords and ominous swords? It is already a heaven-defying opportunity for us to find Xiao Sha. Such an opportunity does not appear easily. My guess is that for the dire beasts to be in such a situation, it must be an order from a powerful Beast King in the depths of the desolate plains. That's why they are obediently guarding the middle regions of the desolate plains. "
"Big Brother's words make sense!" The Lion King felt that Xiao Chen's words made sense. He didn't refute it. He paused for a moment before asking excitedly, "Big Brother, how about we kill our way into the inner regions of the desolate plains?"
"That's the only way."
