Chapter 1 The beast and the boy

The edge of the Dragon Ridge Mountains, the Black Forest.

It is thirty meters away from the ground. At this height, sometimes some sunlight leaks, allowing people to see what happened between the branches and leaves of the trees.

On a thick branch, a figure flashed silently, and the dense branches and leaves and chaotic vines did not hinder him.

The figure was like a deformable stream of water, passing through the narrow gap between branches, leaves and vines, quickly and silently - even the air did not produce any waves, and the surrounding leaves did not shake at all.

"Aowu-" A low voice, a fierce roar sounded!

The huge black shadow jumped up from another branch as thick as two people, flew over twenty meters in space, landed steadily on the trunk, and then followed the black shadow in front, causing a strong wind and pounced into the middle of the dark branches and leaves.

With a glance, it was a black panther with a size far exceeding the average specification.

Biological leopards are not good at body shape and strength. They are better at concealment and raids, and short-range sprints are their trump card.

But this one is obviously different from other leopard creatures - on the trunk that it has stomped by its giant claws, one penetrates more than an inch and a half deep into the trunk, and the huge scratches of the size of a washbasin prove its huge size and terrifying explosive power.

You should know that for ordinary people, the concept of forest is a path that can be barely walked on the ground for people or animals - sometimes there is not even a path of path that can be walked on.

However, for some creatures, forests are not just spaces on the ground, but a three-dimensional system. From the ground to the treetops, there are various slanted branches and trunks distributed in the space with a height of nearly 100 meters, and many vines hanging there. For these two black shadows, this three-dimensional space of nearly 100 meters up and down is their battlefield.

The branches and leaves are swaying, and the shadows are on the branches, and the leaves and vines are jumping and flickering, appearing and disappearing, breaking and reuniting, like two ghosts dancing in the forest.

The dissatisfied roar of beasts and the playful laughter of the boys echoed in the gloomy and weird forest, adding a bit of noise to this not-so-silent forest.

"Idiot, idiot, idiot - just can't catch up - Xiao Hei, are you really a leopard?" Amid the boy's laughter, the roar of the beast chasing behind him seemed to have become louder.

This is a branch that is as thick as three adults. If placed elsewhere, this branch alone will be thicker than the main trunk of an ordinary tree. However, the height of the trunk of this ancient tree is almost more than a hundred meters. Compared with the main trunk, this branch is just an ordinary branch.

On this branch, the young man with only a piece of animal skin around his waist leaned forward, running like lightning, as if his feet were not rugged, narrow and slippery branches, but a flat and smooth road.

And behind him, the roar seemed to be right in his ears - in a short burst of sprints, there were not many creatures in this world that could be compared with leopards, and the black panther was far from comparable to ordinary leopards.

The teenager could almost feel the heat generated by the breathing of the black panther behind him.

That is the standard king of the forest, the overlord at the top of the biological chain in this area.

In this area, no beast can challenge its majesty. All creatures entering this area have been defaulted to be on the beast's dinner recipe since they stepped into it.

But obviously, the teenager is an exception.

Seeing that the boy in front was already reaching his claws, the huge black panther roared excitedly and rushed forward.

It seemed that the foot suddenly slipped, and the boy suddenly lowered and suddenly slid down from the side of the branch.

The black panther made a mistake in judgment and his body swept past the boy's head.

The next moment, like a magic trick, the boy's figure rose again from the branches and returned to the branches. He turned around and ran away.

And where he just fell down, there were five small holes deep into the tree body on the side of the branch, and fresh tree juice was still seeping out from the hole wall.

If you put the boy's left hand on, you will find that the five small holes can be embedded in his five fingers.

Ende climbed on the tree like flying. No matter where he touched the trunk vines on his body, he could change his direction without warning.

The black panther who was chasing her back roared repeatedly, but she always passed by the boy at the last moment.

In this three-dimensional forest space of 100 meters high, a person and a leopard not only has agile figures, turning like flying, but also runs as fast as lightning. It often appears on the top of this big tree just now, and the next moment it is already among the shrubs on the ground; it goes up to the top of the tree and down to the ground, and one person and a leopard jumps up and down, running around in just over a dozen minutes.

When leaping, whether it is a human or a leopard, the distance between the branches and the trunk is like daily play, and the landing point is extremely accurate.

Suddenly, the boy's back became quiet. The black panther who was chasing him was missing, and the forest was quiet.

Ander was careful, with his ears high, his eyes swam around, and his nose kept shaking, trying to find the traces of the black panther. However, how difficult it would be to find a black panther in the dark forest that was good at hiding its tracks?

After a moment, Ander suddenly jumped high from a tree trunk, and with the help of the height difference between the trunk and the trunk, he was about to land on another trunk twenty meters away. Since he had not found where the black panther was hiding, he had to hide in an open place so that he would not be attacked by it.

The man was in mid-air, and suddenly a smug roar sounded. The black panther suddenly jumped up from a dense ball of leaves and wanted to directly catch Ende in mid-air. This time, the young man was in mid-air, and there was no place to borrow power. See where he could run!

As the roaring sound, the black panther caught up with Ande in the air, and his huge claws were about to put on the boy's shoulder.

However, when the front paw was about to put on Ander's shoulder, the two giant claws of the Black Panther, ten sharp claws with cold light suddenly retracted into the meat pad.

At the same time, Ander, who was about to be pressed down on his shoulder, suddenly shook his neck and hid his head. In the air, the group rolled forward like a ball, swung his left hand from bottom to top, grabbed the black panther's left forelimb, and swung it forward and forced it to throw the black panther out of his head.

Then, with the help of the reaction force of the black panther, he moved his whole person three feet diagonally, poked his right foot out, and used his toes to hook a hanging vine next to him. As he rolled forward, he suddenly turned horizontally around the vine for three and a half and stopped.

After this dazzling operation, the boy stepped on the vine on the sole of his left foot, hooked the vine on the toe of his right foot, and stepped on the vine on the hook and stepped on the ground. His whole body was parallel to the ground, standing horizontally on the ancient vine. He turned his head and looked at the black panther that he threw out, watching it rolling from the tree, screaming and falling from the tree.

Andre is not worried. Xiao Hei practiced the turtle breathing technique with him. It sounds ugly, it is called thick skin and thick flesh, and it is called strong muscles and bones. Five years ago, when Xiao Hei was still young, he could resist the shooting of bows and arrows without any damage to his hair. Today, five years later, Xiao Hei's body is more than twice as strong?

It may be a bit exaggerating to say that it is indestructible, but not to mention the height of just twenty or thirty meters, even if it falls from a treetop that is 100 meters high, as long as some branches and vines are buffered, Xiao Hei will not be able to fall.

The vines under the feet of Ander are completely different from those of the ivy in the city - the ancient vines in the black forest are thick and solid. In terms of the toughness of the vine body, they are even more than most trees, and there is no problem with the body that carries Ander.

In fact, there are many dead ancient trees in the black forest. It is because these parasitic vines are deeply pinned into the trunk and cut off the bark tissue of the ancient trees, which causes these trees to slowly wither and die (most trees convey nutrients through the bark, and it is difficult for trees with broken bark to survive).

The black panther twisted his body flexibly in the air, flipped his body like a big cat, and landed steadily on all sides.

Falling from a height of more than twenty meters seems to have no effect on this giant black panther.

"Wuwuwu--" Black Panther raised her head, like a child who was wronged, and started to accuse her dissatisfiedly.

"Okay, OK, I know you didn't catch me because you were afraid of hurting me and took your paw back temporarily. I'm sorry, I shouldn't throw you out. I'll catch you next time - by the way, have you found something fun in the forest recently?"

While Aide apologized without sincerity, he quietly changed the subject.

Through the sparse sunlight, you can see the appearance of a boy.

He was a young man with a piece of animal skin around his waist and a somewhat immature face, looking at a maximum of thirteen or fourteen years old.

"Awoo, awoo, awoo, awoo, awoo—" The black panther made a quick "ahoo" sound like an argument.
