The ground trembled, and a crack along both sides of the ridge swallowed the road down the mountain, rapidly spreading towards the town below.
An earthquake?
The same thought popped into everyone's mind. Locke also hurriedly flew to a safe area, keeping his distance from the flying fish on the other side of the crack.
"Let's go." Lin Feng reminded them, and the two people beside him immediately put aside their surprise at the earthquake and turned to run back the way they came.
Pegasus riders flew in from behind, and the flying fish, leaping into the air, was about to strike with its blade when Lin Feng's demonic hand suddenly grabbed the wings of two Pegasus riders and pulled them down.
"Mount up!"
Carol pulled the knight off, and before she could even sit properly, the flying fish on the other side had already jumped onto another pegasus and soared into the sky.
Just then, the third celestial horse was pulled down, and Lin Feng had just sat on it when a fireball chased after the horse's rear and exploded behind him.
"Walk."
Lin Feng urged Carol, who had slowed down, to step on the Pegasus Knight who had dodged the attack. He then leaped into the air by stepping on the Pegasus whose wings had been burned off.
Whoosh!
With a push from the dragon claw, it overtook Carol in the blink of an eye and flew to a higher position.
“Uh…” Carol glanced at the fireball that had reappeared behind her, and without hesitation pulled the dagger that the original knight had been carrying from his side and stuck it into the pegasus’s rump.
After a sudden acceleration that barely allowed her to dodge the fireball, Carroll heard another angry shout from behind.
"Chase!!" Enraged, Locke propelled his massive body with astonishing speed, leaping across the mountain crevice and gathering all the Pegasus Knights.
The opponent's body, after being transformed, could no longer be described by ordinary standards. In particular, Locke's speed was so great that it seemed to defy gravity and fly through the air.
At this moment, the Pegasus Knights formed a battle formation in the air, charging towards them in a crisscrossing pattern.
Seeing this, the leading flying fish immediately lowered the Pegasus's altitude and moved closer to the trees on the mountain; Carol made the same choice, while Lin Feng remained in the air, attracting a group of Pegasus riders and slightly relieving the pressure of the approaching force.
At this moment, Lin Feng, high above, stopped. A group of Pegasus Knights who appeared in front of them adopted an intercepting stance: "Ambush?"
At a glance, three ships were anchored at the edge of the island, and three Infiltrators were taking off from them.
A skull mask with green flames burning on its head; a rat-faced man with bat wings spread from his back; a bull-headed, snake-tailed creature with rows of feathers standing upright on its back.
“Carol…”
Lin Feng's figure plummeted from the sky, and the aura emanating from his body instantly stirred up a black demonic figure that lunged straight at Carol's side.
"Huh?!" Carol was startled and before she could understand what was happening, she was grabbed by the demon's hand and pulled in front of Lin Feng.
A few seconds later, the two figures soared into the sky, rising to over a hundred meters in a short instant.
"No, no, no! I'm afraid of heights!!" Carol grabbed Lin Feng's arm tightly, afraid that he would fall.
Lin Feng shook his arm, and the sensation in Carol's hand suddenly disappeared. He then heard a command beside him: "Guike, throw her out."
"ah?"
Carol was completely bewildered, but she soon spotted the familiar dragon claw that grabbed her and hurled her toward the island where the ships were moored: "Let them sail away, we'll find a way to catch up."
Lin Feng's voice flashed by, and before Carol could even process it, she saw herself quickly moving away from Lin Feng and away from the main island.
As Carol disappeared, Lin Feng turned his gaze to the ground. A flying fish that rushed out of the forest encountered an Infiltrator blocking its way and was knocked off its Pegasus.
The monstrous, serpentine-faced Eroder blocked her way; the green-flame skeleton threw a flaming spear at Lin Feng; the bat-winged rat-headed creature flapped its wings, glanced at the vanished Carol, and charged towards the flying fish.
The flames that had been chasing them from behind the forest suddenly ignited a sea of fire, pushing the scorching heat towards them.
Lin Feng dodged the attack, his body falling again, his outstretched demonic hand, carrying immense pressure, entered the battle.
The earth trembled as fierce demonic power tore open a safe zone. In the next instant, Flying Fish's killing intent swept across Lin Feng's face, pointing the way and causing the two of them to appear in front of the Green Flame Skeleton at the same time.
Kill him first!
Locke's aura burned onto them, followed by an explosive sensation, but an invisible roar spread from behind the flying fish, blocking the flames and giving the two a slight advantage.
"die!"
Lin Feng drew his demonic blade, and the flying fish darted about. The somewhat smug green flame skeleton suddenly saw two immersive projections tear apart his body and devour his will.
The moment he succeeded, Flying Fish's cold eyes fixed on the person who started strong but finished weak.
Lin Feng tightened his grip and immediately rushed out. Alongside him, Hong Linggui drew a similar, unbroken, transparent demonic blade from the demonic blade, and together they ignited a raging black demonic power.
They retreated swiftly, their tails swaying in the wind, and then, with hearts pounding, they skidded a great distance backward.
However, Lin Feng, who had suddenly taken flight, was immediately propelled forward a considerable distance by the dragon claw, which then appeared in front of his chest.
"What is that...?"
The bull-headed snake swung its tail, binding the dragon's claws and Lin Feng's body together.
At that moment, Flying Fish activated Swift Step, thrusting his twin blades into the snake's back, slicing along its spine as it was pulled back by Dragon Claw and Red Ghost.
But this time, instead of devouring negative thoughts, two bone spikes suddenly emerged from the shattered bull's head, stabbing at them from the left and right.
"careful!"
Gui Ke's dragon claw slashed downwards fiercely, leaving a bloody gash on Lin Feng's face, followed by a large scorch mark from the ensuing electric current. On the other side, the flying fish, which hadn't been entangled by the snake's tail, used the force of its bone spikes to block the current with its twin blades and retreated from the expanding range of electricity.
The thorn of vengeance!
Pain swirled around the demonic power, erupting with sharp spikes. The serpent's tail, which had been tightening, loosened slightly, and the dragon claws immediately grabbed Lin Feng and pulled him out.
Upon closer inspection, a bull's head and snake's tail, with its hands transformed into bone spurs, emerged from the wound.
"Shedding skin and transforming bones"
A brief hint flashed by, and Lin Feng, supported by the dragon claw, immediately thought of something related: a skill that could dodge fatal attacks.
Before he could catch his breath, the dragon claw grabbed Lin Feng and pulled him back several meters, narrowly avoiding the fireball behind him.
Boom! A fireball exploded, and the bat-winged rat head flew out from the crimson color. Immediately afterwards, the bull-headed snake-tailed creature also aimed at Lin Feng, quickly flicked its tail, and swam to his back.
At the same moment, Locke finally arrived, and roaring fiery spirits floated from the staff he raised once more.
Faced with the flames that could destroy everything, the flying fish swam up and took the initiative to block them.
"Has it set sail?" Lin Feng tried to suppress the electric current in his body, and the answer from Ironclad 99 rang in his ears: "It has left the port, and the Imperial warships have not yet detected it."
"How long do you expect it to take to sail out of this area?"
"Twenty minutes..."
