"Get out of here!" Lin Feng was the first to react.
Everyone was startled awake and turned to run back the way they came, but it was too late. A splash was heard, and the previously calm pool suddenly erupted with a curtain of water over ten meters high, crashing towards the shore.
"Hide behind the tree!" Seeing that the group was about to be swept away by the water curtain, Lin Feng had no choice but to shout a warning.
Being a professional hunting team, their teamwork was naturally excellent. As soon as Lin Feng finished speaking, everyone quickly hid behind various large trees. Although You You was a little slow to react, she was fast. In a flash, she disappeared into the woods and hid behind the nearest tree.
The next moment, a curtain of water crashed down, instantly engulfing the entire riverbank, with splashing water falling like rain. Just as Lin Feng had predicted, the water did not spread into the forest and quickly flowed back into the river. However, the cubs that had previously piled up along the riverbank were all pulled back into the pool by the waves.
The water curtain wasn't meant to attack them, but to pull back the young animals.
The group realized what was happening and were about to continue their retreat into the forest when the roar rang out again, its sharp, piercing tone causing a painful strain on their eardrums. The dense thicket in front of them seemed to be pressed down by something, parting to the sides row by row.
"Watch out, the Water Beast is ahead!" Lin Feng's face turned pale as he shouted to stop his teammate who was about to run forward.
Sure enough, the next moment a huge black shadow crawled out of the bushes. It was enormous, looking to be over ten meters long, but it was incredibly fast. In the blink of an eye, it was already in front of them.
It was a monstrous beast covered in black scales, nearly two meters tall, with an extremely long body. Its thick tail was covered in rows of cold spikes, and a meter-long, strikingly red horn adorned its flat head. It was roaring at the crowd with a gigantic mouth that took up almost a third of its body, the rows of sharp teeth inside sending chills down their spines.
My God, what kind of prehistoric giant crocodile is this! Youyou was startled by this terrifying appearance. The cub was just a normal fish, how did it mutate when it grew up?!
The water beast clearly realized that its base had been raided, and it was extremely angry. Perhaps it smelled something, it let out a low growl and charged towards Youyou under the tree on the right without hesitation.
Holy crap! Is watching her deliver the gift a racial trait of this kind of monster?
"Miss You!" The group, who had already run a long distance, suddenly changed their expressions. Without a second thought, they raised their weapons, turned around, and rushed over to stop the Linshui Beast.
The Water Beast showed no sign of stopping. Instead, it swung its enormous demonic tail, and instantly a flash of white light appeared on its tail. The cold thorns growing on it shot out like sharp swords, piercing towards the approaching group. They were forced to dodge and parry, and it was too late to turn back and rescue them.
Just as the water beast was about to pounce on Youyou, Lin Feng, who was the most skilled in martial arts, arrived in time, grabbed Youyou under the tree, and rolled on the spot, narrowly avoiding the beast's jaws.
Just as she was about to start running, Yuu was suddenly knocked down: "..." Do you guys have some kind of misunderstanding about my speed? I feel like even my professionalism in escaping is being questioned!
-_-|||
The next moment, a snapping sound was heard, and the water beast bit straight into the big tree behind You You, cutting the half-meter-wide tree in two.
Hiss... What terrifying bite force!
Youyou was stunned. The Water Beast gave them no time to react. After its attack missed, it turned and lunged at the two people on the ground. Its gaping maw was almost bigger than the two of them, and a stench filled the air.
Seeing that the two had nowhere to retreat, Lin Feng gritted his teeth, grabbed You You tightly, and seized the opportunity to roll towards the Lin Shui beast, dodging its attack. The Lin Shui beast missed its target again, gnawing a hole in the ground.
Taking advantage of the moment it raised its head, Lin Feng leaped into the air, his long sword piercing into the creature's crimson eye.
Aww...
The water beast let out a deafening scream, shaking its head in agony as it howled.
"Let's go!" Lin Feng grabbed You You and ran outside.
Youyou moved swiftly, but just as she was about to start running, she froze, her eyes widening suddenly. "What's that?"
Suddenly, the injured water beast seemed to be stimulated, its whole body emitting a dazzling white light, illuminating its originally dark body. Ice-like things suddenly grew out of its body, carrying a chilling aura.
"Lingci!" Lin Feng's face turned pale instantly. The reason why the Linshui Beast is called the Linshui Beast is because it has the ability to control the flow of water. Moreover, once it is provoked, its whole body will condense a continuous stream of Lingci to attack the enemy. If there is no protection, everything within a dozen meters around it will be shattered.
Youyou felt a chill in her heart. Although she didn't know what it was, she had a feeling it couldn't be anything good. She subconsciously tried to grab Lin Feng, "I'll take you..." and run.
Before she could finish speaking, Lin Feng suddenly turned around, gathered his energy, and struck her with his palm. "Go!"
Huh?
Σ(っ°Д°;)っ
The next moment, a huge force pushed her backward, sending her flying more than ten meters away.
Excuse me? ? ?
What's going on? She could have easily run away with him!
Before sacrificing yourself for someone else, couldn't you at least discuss it with her? It was really unnecessary!
"Watch out!" The other teammates arrived and forcibly pulled Youyou, who was still trying to save people, behind a rock. It was too late to turn back.
The next moment, a whooshing sound filled the air, and thousands of water-based spikes shot out from the Water Beast's body, scattering across the sky. It looked as if Lin Feng, who was closest, was about to be riddled with holes.
Suddenly a red light swept over, wrapping around Lin Feng in time. Before the water droplets could fall, it pulled him away and forcefully threw him under a tree more than ten meters away.
Reinforcements?!
"Hey! Lin the Madman, it's only been a month, and you've really gotten worse." A sarcastic voice rang out from across the room.
Youyou looked up and saw that a person had appeared on a tree trunk not far away, smiling smugly and looking down at the disheveled crowd.
He was dressed in a long blue robe and wore a jade crown on his head. His face was obscured by the distance, but his voice suggested he was young. He held a whip-like weapon in his hand, the whip itself red and made of some unknown material. It was extremely long, seemingly able to extend and retract at will, and the end of the whip was wrapped around Lin Feng's body. Clearly, he had just rescued Lin Feng from the attack of the water beast.
Behind him, on another large tree, stood several people who appeared to be his teammates. Despite being there to rescue people, these people seemed extremely excited about Lin Feng and his companions' predicament, their eyes shining and their faces filled with schadenfreude.
