Chapter 160 The Battle Escalates

After hearing what the female master said, Mu Ling's wolf eyes lit up instantly.

"yes!"

"It's still baking downstairs! Let's eat first and then get it!"

Jiang Xi: "..."

Eat up, eat up. You're so narrow-minded, you can't possibly eat until you're stuffed.

In a few quick movements, Mu Ling stuffed all the beef and pork chops from the female master's bowl into his mouth, and even savored the taste after finishing.

"The female's tastes better than mine!"

Jiang Xi remained silent, only nodding repeatedly.

"If you like it, eat more."

Mu Ling: "Then let's go down and get some more!"

Jiang Xi reacted instantly, and when she looked down, she saw that the wooden bowl was clean.

She quickly pressed down on his hand that was trying to pull her closer, and handed him the beef soup she hadn't finished drinking.

"Eat this bowl."

Mu Ling took it and downed it in one gulp.

Seeing that his wolf eyes were glowing with a faint green light, and that he seemed to want to go down again, Jiang Xi quickly tried to distract him.

"Look down here! Doesn't it feel like the cursed beast is bigger today than yesterday?"

Mu Ling's attention was diverted; with his excellent eyesight, he instantly spotted the enormous cursed beast below.

He was stunned.

"how so……"

Jiang Xi was surprised that her words had come true again, and quickly asked.

What has changed?

Mu Ling looked down at the enormous cursed beast and spoke.

“Look, Mistress, the tail of that beast has color on it. It’s a beast general among the cursed beasts. It usually only appears during the beast tide in late spring and early summer. Even if it appears at other times, it won’t be too strong.”

"Ordinary cursed beasts do not retain their original superpowers. They can only use their superpowers when they are initially corrupted and mutated, but they lose their superpowers once they have completely become cursed beasts."

"And the beast general..."

Mu Ling paused for a moment.

Jiang Xi's heart sank, and she added the following words.

"Beast generals can use supernatural abilities."

Mu Ling nodded, a serious look in her eyes.

"Moreover, if you are injured by the beast general's tail, you will definitely be contaminated."

"What about the ranks of those with superpowers?" Jiang Xi asked again.

Mu Ling: "Like us, four major ranks."

At this point, his expression turned even uglier.

"But there is a problem, that is, the ability level of the cursed beast will not be suppressed to the third major level."

Although he had not yet participated in the beast tide at the end of spring and the beginning of summer, he had encountered a beast general of the fourth tier.

The month after they arrived at the tribe, a beast general at the mid-stage of the fourth tier appeared outside the wall.

The leader was terrified and led a hundred third-tier orcs to attack him. Despite trying to minimize orc casualties, they still suffered ten deaths, seven contaminations, and nine injuries.

Jiang Xi was getting restless.

"Should we move closer? What if they get caught in the tail hook?"

Mu Ling quickly reached out and hugged the female master, pulling her into his arms.

"Don't be afraid, my lady, I will protect you."

Jiang Xi: "I mean, if they've been contaminated, it'll be hard for me to detect it here!"

Mu Ling glanced down.

"It's okay, I can see."

"Moreover, this is only the third tier, which they can handle."

After saying that, he muttered to himself.

"One Lu Liufeng is more than enough."

Although he was reluctant to admit that Lu Liufeng was stronger than him, it was indeed the case.

Jiang Xi felt a little relieved.

"real?"

Mu Ling nodded, "Really!"

Mu Ling wasn't lying to her. Jiang Xi quickly saw that after a burst of fire and explosion, the black beast general disappeared.

But she couldn't relax for long.

This time, even Mu Ling exclaimed in surprise.

"Another beast general!!"

Hold! !

If this continues, even if Lu Liufeng and the others are incredibly powerful, their superpowers will eventually run out!

These beast generals are not like ordinary cursed beasts; they cannot be killed with weapons alone! We must use supernatural abilities!

Mu Ling's laziness vanished. He reached out and pulled the female master into a tight embrace, letting her sit on his arm, never letting her out of his sight.

In this way, if anything goes wrong, he can take the female master away immediately.

At the same time, he also focused his attention on his surroundings, preventing any possible accidents.

For example, bats.

Knowing the situation was urgent, Jiang Xi clung tightly to Mu Ling's neck, not daring to be distracted.

However, as she held him tightly, Mu Ling became somewhat intoxicated by the fragrance.

His nose twitched, alert but not forgetting to sniff the female's scent a few more times.

Suddenly, his ears twitched, he looked down and whispered something in a low voice.

Something is approaching.

Jiang Xi tensed up instantly.

She looked down, but the dense branches blocked her view. The trees were too tall, and even though it wasn't dark in the snowy forest, she couldn't see anything.

Mu Ling held the female master, looked down, and narrowed his eyes.

After seeing what it was, he immediately took a step forward and disappeared into the tree branch.

The next second, a jet-black dog with red eyes, baring its teeth and drooling, climbed up a tree branch. It crawled into a tree hollow, its nose twitching as it sniffed around, while its limbs frantically clawed at the branches.

Then, the black dog raised its tail and suddenly turned away from the tree.

Outside the tree, Mu Ling held the female master in one arm and Yi Yuexi in the other, then tossed him onto a tree branch.

"It's up to you now."

Then, he disappeared into the air.

Yi Yuexi's hands and feet sprouted sharp claws, gripping the tree trunk. She cursed Mu Ling in her heart, but still swung out ice-blue snowflakes, sweeping them towards the black dog.

Mu Ling, holding the female master, stood on a large rock not far from the valley. Only after Yi Yuexi finished dealing with the black dog did he carry the female master back.

Normally, he could handle it all by himself.

But with a female master present, he dared not be presumptuous, for fear of hurting her.

Jiang Xi was carried back and forth, back and forth.

Finally, they returned to the snow forest and stood under a tree.

In the snowy forest, a black dog lay on the ground.

While cursing and swearing, Yi Yuexi sprinkled blue powder on him.

The black dog wasn't completely dead yet; its limbs, ribs, and spine were broken, and it could only lie in the snow, making "hoarse" sounds.

If you're defending against cursed beasts on a regular day, you'll only have the chance to burn blue scale powder at the end of the day.

Those that are dead will dissipate, while those that are alive can be burned as much as possible.

But Yi Yuexi and Mu Ling recognized the one in front of them; it was Liang, Benson's son, who had died by the icy river.

Jiang Xi reached out and touched it, then shook her head.

"It has completely degenerated into a cursed beast."

It's likely that the pollution that has appeared on the glacier in recent days is related to him.

Just as Yi Yuexi was about to light the fire, the black dog's body suddenly seemed to collapse, denting inwards and expanding further, with the black area growing larger and larger.

An eerie aura emanated from the darkness.

Yi Yuexi and Mu Ling's expressions changed, and they both retreated.

"What is that?!"

"What's going on!"

Jiang Xi stared at the collapsed darkness, and a terrible guess popped into her mind.

Could this be...?

"A black hole!?"
