Ruby's whole body froze, cold sweat gushing out of his body in an instant.
"Damn it!!" Dean cursed in his heart, but he didn't care about scolding them. His body suddenly leaped forward. At this point, he naturally wouldn't expect that the Shadow Hunter didn't hear it. Instead of holding such an illusion, it was better to run away at full speed. At least there was a chance!
After being stunned for a moment, Ian and Martin immediately reacted. Angry in their hearts, they instantly rushed forward.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The three of them suddenly ran at full speed, making whistling sounds of wind and footsteps. Along the way, some monsters' skeletons were crushed into pieces.
Seeing the three of them running away in an instant, Ruby reacted and hurriedly followed them.
When Dean was about to overtake Ian, he suddenly saw Ian raise his arm slightly. His face changed, and a strong killing intent flashed in his eyes. Without the slightest pause, he stretched out his wrist. Bang! When he passed by Ian, Ian raised his arm and slammed it toward him. Dean was already prepared. His arm grabbed Ian's attacking arm and pulled it backward.
Ian was stunned.
The next moment, his body lost balance. He staggered a little and almost fell down.
By the time he stabilized his body, Dean had already swept past him. Dean had even surpassed Martin who was in front of him and rushed to the front.
Everyone knew that when encountering a monster, one didn't need to run faster than the monster. He just needed to run faster than his companions.
At this time, Ruby had already caught up from behind.
There was a trace of horror on Ian's face. He hatefully looked at Dean's back in front of him, then suddenly raised his arm and waved at Ruby who was chasing behind him.
Ruby didn't expect that Ian would attack him. He couldn't react in time. Bang! His face was hit by the back of Ian's hand. Suddenly, his nasal cavity ruptured, nosebleed, and his body was knocked backward. Ian quickly rushed out and caught up with Martin in front of him.
Ruby endured the sharp pain. Her heart was filled with anger and fear as she madly ran away.
In this dark cave, several figures quickly swept past. In the blink of an eye, they left the Shadow Hunter and rushed to the exit of the cave.
Dean looked at the exit that was close at hand. He could see the dark green vines and sunlight outside the exit. A glimmer of hope suddenly emerged in his heart.
Sunshine always seemed to bring hope.
Whoosh!
Dean rushed straight out of the cave. The moment he stepped outside, his whole body was bathed in the sunlight. He was a little relieved in his heart. His eyes shifted to the back and hurriedly glanced. He didn't have time to look before, but now he saw Martin and Ian rushing almost side by side. Ruby, who was more than ten meters behind them, followed closely behind, and the Shadow Hunters in the deeper part of the cave... actually didn't move?
Dudian was startled.
Martin and Ian were fast approaching.
Dean came back to his senses, and his heart suddenly moved. He didn't follow his previous idea of stepping out of the cave and spreading his wings. Instead, he turned around and ran down the mountain. But he couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart. Was this Shadow Hunter really sleeping soundly? If the commotion caused by Ruby didn't wake him up, then the sound of them running at full speed should have woken him up, right?
In the blink of an eye, Dean had rushed to the foot of the mountain.
When he passed by the body of the Corpse Pecker, he saw a few colorful insects lying on the body and gnawing on it. They were bloodthirsty insects that were common in the forest. Their hunting level was low, but they could secrete toxins. If one was not careful, even a senior hunter would suffer in front of them.
Dean saw Ian and Martin rushing down one after another. His attention was focused on them, but he didn't see Ruby following him. He also didn't feel the movement of the Shadow Hunters.
He was a little relieved, and his eyes fell on Ian. Although he could understand Ian's mood at that time, if it wasn't for his quick reaction, this behavior would have put him to death!
Seeing Dean's unfriendly face, Ian's face was a little ugly. If it wasn't necessary, he really didn't want to be enemies with Dean.
"You, you guys come quickly!" Suddenly, Ruby's voice came from the mountain. It was not the fear they imagined, but full of shock and even a hint of surprise.
The three of them were startled. They looked at each other and looked up at the mountain, but they didn't move. No one could be sure whether this would be a trap set by Ruby, who was lagging behind, to get them to go back and help him.
"You guys come quickly! This legendary monster is dead, it's dead!" Ruby's voice came from the deep grass. With a rustling sound, the grass was pushed away by his burly body. His head was full of sweat, but his face was red, and he looked very excited.
Dean was startled. A lot of information suddenly flashed in his mind. His heart jumped, and he quickly rushed toward Ruby, then swept past him and returned to the cave on the mountain.
Ian and Martin were startled for a moment. They didn't expect Dean to be so courageous. He dared to return to the horrible lair just because of Ruby's words. If he deliberately lied to retaliate against Ian's previous behavior, wouldn't he take the initiative to go back and die?
While the two were hesitating, Ruby saw Dean go back, so he immediately turned and followed him back.
Seeing this scene, the two were taken aback. They looked at each other and immediately saw the shock in each other's eyes. Could it be that what Ruby said was true?
The two couldn't care so much, and quickly followed Ruby back to the mountain.
As soon as they arrived at the open space, they saw Dean standing in front of the cave, looking inside. But the Shadow Hunter didn't rush out to chase them.
Thinking of this, the two showed a bit of excitement on their faces and immediately came to the cave.
Dean stared at the Shadow Hunter inside, and his eyes suddenly showed shock. His judgment was right. Ruby didn't lie. This Shadow Hunter was really dead! On its back, there was a hole with a diameter of nearly one meter, and the silver scales on its surface were completely shattered. The injury was extremely serious, and judging from the location, it was also a fatal part!
It was actually dead!
The Shadow Hunter, known as the best at hiding among the legendary monsters, actually died in its own lair!
Dean was shocked. The reason why he dared to come back was mainly because he thought of his previous inference. The ovaries under the cave obviously belonged to this Shadow Hunter. It didn't make sense for it to sleep here. Moreover, until he rushed out of the cave, this Shadow Hunter didn't chase them. If he added the conclusion that "it was dead" in front of these doubtful points, everything could be explained.
He suddenly thought of the movement they heard when they fell into the ovaries while digging the soil five days ago. At that time, the last sound they heard was a roar, and then it completely stopped.
"I should have thought of it earlier. What kind of monster would roar like that when it's asleep? It must have been attacked at that time, and it was this fatal attack! In other words, it was dead at that time! "Dean's face changed.
Although the Shadow Hunter's death was a good thing for them, and they didn't have to run for their lives, didn't this mean a more terrible thing? At that time, in this cave, there was something more terrible than this Shadow Hunter!
What was it that could kill this Shadow Hunter with one blow?
After all, this was a mature Legendary monster. Although its Hunting Level was only between 64 and 67, its actual combat ability was comparable to that of a normal monster with a Hunting Level of over 100! Moreover, with the Shadow Hunter's superb lurking ability, it was actually killed by another monster. It was simply inconceivable!
If that thing had already set up an ambush before it entered the cave and launched a sneak attack, then it wouldn't make sense. After all, in terms of ambush, the Shadow Hunter was the best in this field!
Dean's face was ugly. Suddenly, for the first time, he felt that in this world outside the giant wall, his life was not under his control. Fortunately, that thing didn't take a fancy to them. Otherwise, with this kind of skill, it would be easy to kill them!
At this time, Ian and Martin also came to the side of the cave and looked inside. Soon, their faces were filled with horror.
