In the shadows of the forest, pairs of bright eyes drew closer, fixed on the mutated grove of trees in the distance, their noses filled with the alluring scent. Gradually, a bloodthirsty glint appeared in their eyes.
Afu and Ashou ran outside the mutated forest, standing apart in a guarded posture. Their auras, belonging to level 4 mutated beasts, both frightened and coveted the mutated beasts, as the high-grade mutated beast meat could rapidly increase their strength.
As soon as Aru was in the mutated forest, he looked up at the sky and roared, and a series of echoes immediately resounded from the distant mountains.
Many mutated animals emerged from the shadows of the forest. These animals were all of high level, many of them already being level 3 mutated beasts. They approached the mutated forest, while the mutated plants in the forest remained completely still, because they all knew each other and were "one of their own".
"Moo!"
A beastly roar came from afar. Lin Ruo's mental power had already detected that these mutated beasts were being controlled by a level 4 mutated rhinoceros. At this moment, the mutated rhinoceros gave a command, and these mutated animals that were about to attack the fortress immediately rushed towards this side.
Sensing a threat from afar, Afu and Ashou disregarded the animals attacking the mutated forest and quickly got up to chase after the mutated rhinoceros.
Lin Ruo kept observing the rhinoceros's every move with his mental energy. Even though it sensed that Afu and Ashou's aura was gradually approaching, it did not retreat. Afu and Ashou moved quickly and faced the mutated rhinoceros head-on in just over ten seconds.
After such a long period of training, Afu and Ashou's individual strength has far surpassed that of ordinary level 4 mutated animals. However, they never underestimate their opponents. Even knowing that this rhinoceros is not as strong as them, they still cooperate with each other according to their own fighting style.
Before the apocalypse, rhinos already had thick skin. After the apocalypse, they mutated, and defense became their strength. With this hard shell, they have defeated many mutated animals and survived to this day, even reaching level 4.
Ah Shou rushed forward quickly, like a blur, swiftly slicing through the rhinoceros's body. Although the rhinoceros dodged, Ah Shou's claws had already scratched its body, but without breaking the skin.
Afu and Ashou exchanged a glance. Having been hunting outside for so long, they were no longer the novice they had encountered with the mutated elephant before, who could only fight against its thick hide. They circled the rhinoceros, constantly searching for its weak points.
Relying on his speed, Ah Shou was able to quickly dodge the rhinoceros's sharp horn attacks. He kept scratching at the rhinoceros with his large claws. His sharp claws kept probing, and sometimes he would only scratch the lower part of the rhinoceros's belly a dozen times. Ah Shou clearly remembered that the last time he scratched the elephant's belly open, it was the same thing.
Afu was responsible for attracting the rhinoceros's attention from the front. Whenever the rhinoceros chased A-Shou, Afu would bite the rhinoceros's neck. Their bite force was quite strong, and even a creature with thick skin like a rhinoceros dared not be careless.
The rhinoceros seized the opportunity and charged towards Afu's belly, its long, sharp horns gleaming coldly. Afu easily lifted his foot and kicked the rhinoceros in the head, his sharp claws slicing across the rhinoceros's eyelids, leaving a long, bloody gash. At the same time, Ashou bit the rhinoceros hard from behind.
The rhinoceros not only failed to harm its opponent, but also aggravated its own injuries, and stomped its feet angrily.
Under the attacks of Afu and Ashou, and with the mutated plants around them taking the opportunity to trip the rhinoceros, the rhinoceros suffered more and more wounds and became increasingly agitated. It roared at the sky again, trying to call the mutated beasts over to help it, but the mutated beasts were already too busy to help themselves.
Alu led the mutated beasts on the mountain peak and fought against them. Alu was a tiger and a level 3 mutated beast. There were basically no opponents who could match it on the battlefield. One swipe of its claws would tear the flesh of its opponent, and one bite could break its neck. Not to mention that it had the help of the mutated plants around it.
The battle continued, but Lin Ruo, who was still inside the fortress, withdrew her mental energy. The outcome of the battle was already very clear: the three of them would be fine.
She continued downstairs, and by the time she reached the fortress gate, the battle was over. Afu and Ashou had tackled the rhinoceros together, their two large mouths biting into the rhinoceros's carotid artery. Their long, sharp teeth pierced the blood vessels, and a large amount of blood splattered onto them, but they did not move.
Despite its struggles, the rhinoceros ultimately met its end in the jaws of Afu and Ashou.
As soon as the rhinoceros died, all the mutated animals that were still struggling to survive trembled and prostrated themselves on the ground, putting their heads down to show their submission to Aru.
Aru looked up at the sky and roared, "Awoo!"
The mutated beasts around him, whose eyes had been reddened by blood, suddenly regained their clarity and stopped attacking.
At this moment, Afu and Ashou also dragged the dead mutated rhinoceros back. Alu ran up and circled around them. Finding that they were not injured, he rubbed his big head against Afu and Ashou's neck and then growled behind him. The mutated animals that were lying on the ground then stood up shakily and left with the mutated animals on Alu's side.
As long as their own kind don't harm them, Aru and his companions never go so far as to exterminate them, because these mutated animals migrate here out of necessity.
The prolonged period of extreme heat was causing these mutated animals immense suffering.
Besides Lin Ruo's mountain peak, which is frequently covered by rainwater gathered by her water-based supernatural abilities, the ecosystems of the other two mountains have suffered unprecedented damage.
