Chapter 18, Shadow Mantis Dies, Surprise
Roar~
The strong ape stood up straight and let out a roar.
He was more than two meters tall, with explosive muscles that bulged like hills, and a pair of fists collided with each other, making a muffled sound.
Opposite him, a nearly two-meter-tall shadow mantis was staring ahead with compound eyes that contained no emotion.
His outer shell was as black as ink, without any mottled colors. The sharp arm blades exuded a deep chill, and the thin wings like cicada wings vibrated constantly, making a buzzing sound.
Guo Yufan's face was calm. He could feel that the fluctuations emitted by Shadow Mantis were only at the bronze level, which was just right for him to be A Yuan's opponent.
As for the safety of the group of people and the Great Ape, he is not worried. After all, his Wind Spirit Bird is a silver-level bird and has an overwhelming advantage over the Shadow Mantis.
Even if A Yuan is not his opponent, the Wind Spirit Bird can save A Yuan's life in time.
Of course, he still had full confidence in the war beast he had carefully cultivated.
boom
The strong ape took a step forward and struck the Shadow Mantis with its hammer-like fist.
Shadow Mantis flapped its wings and jumped up. Not only did it avoid the attack of the powerful ape, but it also flew to the side of the powerful ape at an extremely fast speed, and slashed its neck with its arm blade in an icy arc.
The Great Ape roared angrily, but did not dodge. He raised one arm to block the arm blade, and made a fist with the other hand, hitting Shadow Mantis directly in the face.
boom
Shadow Mantis flew two meters upside down, and several of its compound eyes were blasted out.
The great ape took a look at the wound on his arm. The wound was not deep, only about 2 centimeters. To him, it was just a broken skin.
Guo Yufan saw the fighting situation in his eyes and nodded with satisfaction.
It seems that Ah Yuan's Golden Congo was not in vain, and his defense has indeed gone up to a higher level.
If A Yuan can evolve into a powerful diamond ape, he can break through the gold level racial limit.
However, the Golden Congo is still too expensive, and there is still a long way to go before A Yuan can evolve.
Roar~
I'll kill you while you're sick.
After years of training and fighting, the Great Ape has long understood this truth.
He stepped hard and rushed towards the Shadow Mantis like a cannonball.
Hiss~
Shadow Mantis opened and closed its mouthparts, and its originally cold eyes became even colder.
Swish
The two arm blades made a cross, and he couldn't believe that his sharpest weapon could not hurt the big man opposite him.
The strong ape's eyes were full of fighting spirit. This time, he still did not dodge or dodge, and fired out with his right fist, which looked like a heavy punch.
tear apart
The arm blade struck the ape's fist, instantly splashing a few splashes of blood, but this injury could not stop the ape's ferocious blow at all.
boom
A heavy fist like a hammer hit the dark shell, as if a steel plate had been hit by a hammer and suddenly dented inward.
Light green juice splashed, and Shadow Mantis' body hit the big tree behind him heavily. For a moment, the big tree shook suddenly, and the leaves fell one after another.
In Xiao Yao's eyes, Shadow Mantis's blood volume dropped to 47% in an instant, which was close to the level of serious injury.
Hiss~
The Shadow Mantis opened its mouthparts, and his originally cold eyes showed a hint of panic. He stood up quickly, and his figure moved like a black smoke, blending into the shadow of the surrounding trees.
Shadow Sneak!
This is the skill of Shadow Mantis. It can blend with the surrounding shadows, but it has a certain timeliness. But even so, it is still a very powerful skill. It can play a decisive role in assassination or escape.
The Shadow Mantis ran so fast that the Great Ape and Guo Yufan didn't have time to react.
"Okay, let him run away."
Guo Yufan shook his head helplessly. He originally wanted to kill the mantis and give Xiao Yao an explanation, but he didn't expect this thing to run so fast.
But in the dark forest, with shadows everywhere, Shadow Mantis's stealth was indeed difficult to detect, and even he couldn't track it.
"Senior, I have a way to track that guy."
Xiao Yao had a ruthless look on his face, damn, this thing almost killed him, it would be hard to vent his hatred if he didn't kill him.
"Do you have any idea?"
Guo Yufan looked at Xiao Yao in surprise. If he could track Shadow Mantis, then this matter would be easy to handle.
Shadow Stealth doesn't last long, and as long as you can find him, killing him is easy.
Xiao Yao nodded.
Because he signed a soul contract with Xiao Ke, he can clearly know Xiao Ke's status.
In Xiao Ke's eyes, a bright red shadow stretched into the distance in mid-air, which was exactly the direction in which the Shadow Mantis was escaping.
After being promoted to Black Iron Level 2, Blood Tracking quickly came into play.
"You lead the team, I will follow you." Guo Yufan made the decision on the spot.
After these two days, he could see that Xiao Yao's character was a calm and cautious person. He believed that Xiao Yao would never say big words at this time.
Xiao Yao glanced at Xiao Ke and nodded.
Xiao Ke immediately understood what Xiao Yao meant, and he whined, his eyes full of anger.
Xiao Yao's near-death experience just now was seen by him. He not only hated the shadow mantis, but also hated himself for being weak now. Fortunately, the other person was injured, so he must find him.
Along the illusory blood path in mid-air, Xiao Ke led everyone to run. After running for about seven or eight minutes, Xiao Ke suddenly slowed down and moved closer to the front little by little.
Xiao Yao knew that his group was very close to the shadow mantis.
Sure enough, after everyone cautiously moved forward for less than a minute, they saw an injured shadow mantis leaning on a big tree, silently recovering from its wounds.
Upon seeing this, Guo Yufan waved his hand, signaling that the great ape was ready to take action.
Looking at the shadow mantis in front of him, a humanized contemptuous smile appeared on the corner of the strong ape's mouth.
He flexed and stretched his body, rushing forward at a speed that was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye.
Perhaps because he didn't expect anyone to chase him, or perhaps because of his own injuries, Shadow Mantis didn't notice the giant ape until he came within ten meters of the surrounding area.
But this distance is only a blink of an eye for the powerful ape.
Boom
The iron fist hit Shadow Mantis' head, blowing it open.
Light green and black juice splashed, and a mutilated, headless corpse fell to the ground.
Xiao Yao looked ahead with some envy. If this Shadow Mantis was killed by Xiao Ke, he would probably be able to survive two or three levels.
Of course, he knew that this was impossible. Even the seriously injured Shadow Mantis was not something that Xiao Ke could handle. If the other party wanted to kill Xiao Ke, it would only be a matter of one blow.
After Shadow Mantis died, the Great Ape returned to Guo Yufan and roared a few times, seeming a little proud.
"I know, I know, you are awesome."
Looking at the somewhat stinky beast, Guo Yufan smiled helplessly.
Each war beast has its own character, and the character of the Great Ape is undoubtedly the most out-of-the-box. It has the lively and unruly ape clan, which often gives him headaches.
"Xiao Ling, you should go back first." Guo Yufan said to the wind bird next to him.
My mission this time is to take this group of juniors and juniors for a wild survival trial, but in the No. 1 trial ground, Xiao Ling's deterrence is still too strong. No monster dares to approach me. This is not good for this group of students.
This is not a good thing for juniors and juniors.
Without encountering monsters, they cannot increase their knowledge and accumulate combat experience, which violates the meaning of being a team leader.
The Wind Spirit Bird puffed its beak and nodded reluctantly.
With a flash of white light, the Wind Spirit Bird returned to Guo Yufan's beast-controlling space.
At this time, Xiao Yao frowned. He found that after Shadow Mantis died, Xiao Ke could still see a clear red shadow in his eyes. This meant that there was an injured monster around, and the shadow did not extend too far. Obviously
The injured monster is nearby.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yao said: "Senior, is there an injured monster nearby?"
"oh?"
Guo Yufan glanced at Xiao Yao in surprise, and then said: "Then take me to see it."
Xiao Yao nodded. He didn't know what level this injured monster was. If it were like the Shadow Mantis, he would die if he went there rashly.
But it is much safer to have a master like Guo Yufan by your side.
Following Xiao Ke, Xiao Yao and Guo Yufan gradually approached the end of the phantom, while the powerful ape stayed to protect the others.
Walking around the thick tree, Xiao Yao and Guo Yufan saw the unconscious monster on the ground, with strong surprise in their eyes.
Chapter completed!
