When I found them, I saw that I returned empty-handed, each with an expression of incomprehension, seemingly unable to understand why I had failed again this time.
For a moment, I felt that they had a sense of being looked down upon in their hearts. But it's not easy to talk underwater, so I could only explain with gestures for a while before they finally understood that someone was causing trouble.
Now they're in trouble, the cooked duck has flown away, this is unbearable, they're all furious and want to fight me, seeing their attitude, I'm delighted.
I led the way in front, and soon found that guy who was blocking the road. However, I didn't recognize what this thing was, its head was quite big, more than five meters long, black and shiny, and it had four claws.
Apart from the color, it looks a bit like a four-legged snake. At this time, it also noticed us and saw that we were rushing towards it with killing intent. This guy saw that the situation was not good, "whoosh!" and ran away immediately.
I made a four-way bread-cutting motion towards them, they understood instantly and immediately swam away in three different directions, while I chased after them from behind.
Although the breath of these four-legged beasts is a bit stronger than mine, their movements are not as fast as mine. If they block me, I'm not worried at all. After all, as long as I can hold them back for a moment, I'll be able to catch up.
The four-legged beast seemed to have known our intention, seeing that it was surrounded on three sides. With a burst of energy, it charged forward fiercely. Da Xiao and Zhang were not very fast, but the flower snake was quite speedy, even faster than the four-legged beast.
After chasing for a while, the four-legged beast felt that it couldn't escape. With a burst of courage, it directly pounced on Xiao Zhuang, because among us, only Xiao Zhuang had the worst strength.
Jian saw himself rushing over, Xiao Zhuang first paused for a moment, but then still gritted his teeth and went forward. Seeing Xiao Zhuang's courage increase a bit, I also felt relieved in my heart.
However, I sped up. Afraid that Xiao Zhuang would be at a disadvantage, these four-legged fierce beasts were not something it could handle alone. When I caught up, they had already clashed. Seeing me rush over, the four-legged fierce beast wanted to escape. But Xiao Zhuang summoned its courage and pounced forward, stubbornly holding it back.
As soon as I saw it was going to go bad, I rushed up recklessly and pounced on it. Just when the four-legged beast was about to turn its head and bite Xiaozhuang, I also pounced on it, forcing it to give up Xiaozhuang and face my attack instead.
I was going to use an illusion spell to put it to sleep, but I thought better of it. Now this is a good opportunity for the three of them to train.
When Da Zhuang and Hua She arrived, I retreated to one side. They understood my intention and didn't stay. They went straight up and started tearing at the four-legged fierce beast.
The flower snake was full of fighting spirit, while Da Zhuang and Xiao Zhuang were still a bit hesitant at first, but seeing me staring at them from the side, they gradually let go and fully engaged in the battle.
The four-legged beast was stronger than all of them, but now it had a clear fear. The three snakes cooperated not very tacitly, but now they seemed to be more courageous as the battle went on, and I was staring at them with a fierce gaze by their side.
They soon gained the upper hand, and the four-legged snake gradually became unable to cope. After several rounds of fighting, the three of them also developed a tacit understanding, each time they attacked, they would seal off the four-legged beast's retreat route tightly.
I nodded in satisfaction, these three guys, if they cooperate a few more times, will definitely be elite soldiers. This four-legged snake is obviously stronger than them, but at this moment, they can all take it down.
If I train a few more times, I estimate that even if I don't use magic, it will be somewhat difficult for me to defeat them. In other words, our combat power has increased by another fold.
Finally, the four-legged beast was defeated by them. Da Zhuang used his sturdy body to tightly wrap around the four-legged fierce beast, wrapping it up tightly. Xiao Zhuang and Hua She also didn't fall behind, biting onto its neck, and in a short while, the four-legged fierce beast stopped moving.
We dragged it to the shore, and Da Zhuang was happier than anyone else. He came over to boast: "Brother, look at us, we're so powerful that we can even kill such a fierce beast!"
I also said with satisfaction: "You guys coordinated quite well this time, let me tell you, if you want to be even more tacit in the future, even the strongest ferocious beasts can be killed by you!"
"Really? I'm so happy! I've never killed a beast that's stronger than me before, and this time I actually did it!" Huashe and Xiaozhuang also exclaimed in unison.
This time they were able to kill the four-legged beast, which greatly boosted their confidence. I estimate that in the future, Da Zhuang and Xiao Zhuang's courage will not be as small as before. This is a good start. If there is an opportunity, I will let them work together again.
At this time, Xiao Zhuang said: "Big brother, I know you need the essence of these fierce beasts. You'd better suck it quickly, or else it won't be fresh later!"
"Huh?"
Now that you mention it, I'm a bit embarrassed. They also need the fierce beast's blood, this is their spoils of war, and to be honest, I don't really accept it.
I explained the benefits of essence blood to them, but they still said: "Big brother, we don't need essence blood, with you teaching us that breathing technique, we're already very satisfied. In the future, when we catch fierce beasts, all the essence blood will be given to big brother to absorb!"
Hearing these three guys say this, I felt a warmth in my heart and had the urge to cry. After knowing that they could improve their own strength, but they didn't have any greedy thoughts, instead, they yielded and let me take it.
Actually, I was thinking that after opening it up, I wouldn't be polite and would directly go over to absorb the essence of the four-legged ferocious beast. After all, my strength needs to increase much faster than theirs. Only if I quickly become stronger can I bring more benefits to them.
After sucking the blood, I lay down to rest on one side, and they only went to divide the four-legged beast to eat it. After all, the meat of the beast is much better than that of ordinary animals.
But while we were enjoying our meal, those guys had already approached the central part of the island.
"Boss, I feel like it's getting quieter the further in we go. It's as if we haven't even seen a single wild animal," a man asked Tom.
Tom also felt that something was wrong. Logically speaking, the more lush the forest is, the more animals there should be, but at this time, it seemed that not even a single bird feather could be seen.
But he didn't want to shake the military's morale, so he waved his hand and said, "Isn't this good enough? Since there are no wild beasts coming to disturb us, let's relax a bit, don't speak, and don't slack off, all of you be on high alert!"
After finishing, he picked up the map again and said, "Damn it, this damn map is really a headache!" Seeing that the map was marked vaguely, Tom scolded again in anger.
"Ding Dong! Ding Dong!"
Suddenly, a dull footstep came, everyone stopped in their tracks, then grasped their guns and looked around nervously. Suddenly, a man almost fell to the ground: "Boss, why did so many wild beasts suddenly appear?"
"Oh God!" At this time everyone saw the beast in front of them, especially those two women, who were so scared that they covered their mouths.
Tom was also shocked in his heart, because at least a dozen wild beasts were running towards them from the front, and these beasts looked very strange, just like the mutant beasts in the movies.
Take the wild boar running in the front, this child is almost as fast as a cow. And there are leopards, snakes, and rhinos on the side, all of which are like filming a movie, none of which are normal, completely exceeding their normal body shape.
They had a feeling of coming to the world of science fiction, Tom was also unsettled, he knew that these guys were more difficult to deal with than the wolf just now, let alone such a large group.
"Everybody stay calm," Tom said. "We'll back away slowly. Nobody fires a shot without my order, got it?"
As Tom's voice fell, everyone retreated backward in trepidation, but the beasts soon caught up with them. At first, Tom thought that as long as they retreated, these guys wouldn't chase after them.
But now they found out that they were wrong, there was no way, Tom had to order the shooting, and with a loud command, the guns fired, and dense bullets shot at those beasts.
As the bullets flew towards them, the beasts immediately scattered in all directions, but instead of escaping, they surrounded Tom from all sides.
