Chapter Thirty-Six: Encounter with an Old Acquaintance

  "Did it work?" Liu Feng muttered.

  Just now, the true energy in his body had circulated along that strange meridian for a cycle.

  Liu Feng's advancing figure seemed to have crossed over the spatial barrier, directly appearing dozens of steps away.

  "What is this? A foot-long distance of a thousand miles? Or an instant move?"

  No one answered, so there was no answer.

  However, Liu Feng was clear that this way of crossing space must have something to do with the mutated true energy in his body.

  This gait is too abnormal, ignoring the spatial distance and directly passing through the space.

  If it were in battle, suddenly coming like this... Who can easily withstand?

  Liu Feng excitedly began experimenting with the specific distance of this step's traversal through space.

  After continuous rushing, Liu Feng also slowly figured out the bottom of this set of steps.

  Its maximum moving distance is thirty steps away, which is about thirty meters. However, this step also has its limitations, and after using it once, you must wait for a few minutes before using it again.

  For this set of footsteps, Liu Feng named it: Instant.

  A simple word, it conveys its essence perfectly.

  With both hands lightly placed behind his back, his figure occasionally flashed, already tens of meters away, then slowly moved a hundred or so meters, and again lightly flashed.

  Grassland, blue sky, human figure.

  A beautiful and mysterious scene.

  On this vast grassland, it is also not peaceful. All kinds of magical beasts emerge one after another. Although they are not as powerful as the high-level magical beasts in the Death Forest, they still have great lethality to some people with lower levels.

  All the way here, I easily took care of dozens of ferocious beasts that didn't even open their eyes, yet I haven't seen a single human figure.

  A blade of grass popped out from between the fingers, like a bullet, passing through the eyes of a monster that was about to pounce, taking away its prematurely ended life.

  The little golden retriever in his arms rolled over and continued sleeping.

  Liu Feng couldn't help but let out a bitter laugh: "This guy simply treats me as a mobile sofa."

  His figure flashed again and disappeared on the spot.

  Today is Liu Feng's second day on the prairie.

  The night scenery on the grassland is very beautiful, with stars twinkling in the sky, like mischievous little elves.

  The moonlight is like water, gently sprinkling down.

  Put on a beautiful veil for the prairie.

  Under this dark starry sky, a small firelight flickers on the prairie.

  Gently turning the tender meat on the grill, above the scorching flames, dripping with golden oil droplets.

  The aroma that makes people drool is slowly emitted, and the little golden dog in his arms stares at the roasted meat with bright eyes, not blinking.

  The enticing aroma wafted gently across this small patch of grassland, drawing the drooling attention of many magical beasts.

  The monsters around were getting more and more, but Liu Feng didn't even lift his head, just lightly said: "Go drive them away, otherwise you won't have meat to eat."

  A flash of golden light in his palm, and the small gold had already appeared in mid-air. A low growl, and a strong dragon aura suddenly burst forth, causing the surrounding demonic beasts to tremble violently, their heads hung low as they hastily retreated with their tails between their legs.

  Golden light flashed again, and it returned to Liu Feng's arms once more. The twisting body let out a "woo woo" sound of affection.

  "Meat, sometimes I want it." A childish voice came out of Xiao Jin's dragon mouth.

  Liu Feng saw Xiao Jin speaking human language, but he didn't show any surprise, apparently he had already known.

  She smiled slightly and gently took down the roasted meat, dividing it in half and handing one portion to Xiaojin who was still drooling.

  Xiao Jin stretched out two claws to receive it, and his big bright eyes showed great satisfaction.

  One person and one dragon, on the green grass, eating fiercely.

  Get up with the sun.

  Liu Feng kicked away the already cold ashes with his foot and hugged Xiao Jin again, setting off into the distance once more.

  Leaving behind a few black carbons and a ground full of shattered bones, proving that someone had stayed here before.

  Occasional flashes on the prairie leave behind an illusory afterimage.

  Sunlight passes through it and casts a straight projection onto the lawn.

  The scene looks a bit eerie.

  "Meh, over there. Someone." The little Jīn in his arms suddenly uttered a childish sentence, pointing with its front paws to the left.

  Liu Feng slightly stunned, then smiled and nodded, stretched out his hand to gently stroke Xiao Jin's head.

  He had no doubt about Xiao Jin's strength.

  Xiao Jin closed his big eyes contentedly.

  With a slight exertion of his foot, he shot out like an arrow.

  Kens is now in a predicament, since the last time the mercenary group suffered a defeat in the Dead Hope Forest, he has led his troops to the "Sunset" fortress.

  Recently, the Bimon on the Beastman Great Plains have started their restless movements again.

  There were always scattered beastmen circling outside the city.

  For this, the "Sun Never Sets" city lord: Outei Grand Duke, issued a quest in the Mercenary Guild.

  B-level mission: Investigate the suspicious behavior of the Beastmen, kill anyone who sees you.

  It's just a B-level task, and even that time in the Death Forest, the quest to investigate the Black Dragon was only A-level. And for every suspicious beastman you kill, you can get a generous reward. What a great deal, where could I have encountered this before?

  So Ken accepted this task without hesitation.

  Although there are many terrifying magical beasts on the Beastman Great Prairie, as long as you don't stray too far from the "Sunset" fortress, it's unlikely that you'll encounter any particular danger.

  But that's only relative, for example, the over 100 three-stage magical beasts in front of us right now, "Ferocious Blood Wolves".

  "Brutal Blood Wolf", the most terrifying magical beast on the Beastman Great Prairie, and the terror here is not about its strength, but about its special ability to summon companions.

  Rough statistics: there are no less than two million "Ferocious Blood Wolves" on the Beastman Prairie.

  Two hundred million, what concept is that?

  This force can easily destroy a small country, and even the Star Blue Empire does not dare to collide with it head-on.

  They had no choice but to take a defensive stance and rely on the high city walls to keep them out.

  All four members of the team are now injured and "Blood Wolf" has completed the encirclement, there is no chance to escape.

  "Squad leader, let's take down these beasts." The voice came from below.

  Kens shook his head with a bitter smile and looked at the angry dwarf Badass.

  "What's going on? Haven't you seen that everyone is already injured?" The handsome male elf next to him glared at him fiercely, but his bow and arrow didn't stop for a moment. With a piercing sound, he shot an arrow into the throat of a wolf that was about to pounce forward, splashing out a burst of fresh blood.

  His entire body was covered in bloodstains, and he had lost his usual elegant demeanor, looking somewhat disheveled.

  "Damn you, Badass! If it weren't for your carelessness in throwing things around, could these beasts have been attracted here?" A young man in a red monk's robe shouted at the dwarf in the middle of the group.

  With a wave of his wand, several fireballs were thrown out and exploded in the wolf pack, causing a burst of wolf howls.

  Scolded by his companions, the dwarf felt a bit embarrassed, scratched his head and chuckled: "I didn't know that throwing something casually would kill that little brat."

  "Alright, stop talking nonsense." Kens shouted: "Hold on as much as you can, Beifa, shoot a fireball into the sky and see if there's anyone nearby who can come to rescue us."

  Kens still had prestige in the mercenary group, and when he spoke, everyone stopped their noise.

  The magician Beifa also shot a fireball into the sky.

  A red fireball rapidly rose into the air, suddenly exploding in the sky above, with brilliant flames making everything within a hundred meters clearly visible, and even from a distance, it could still be vaguely seen.

  "May the gods hear our prayers."
