Five leopard-like birds remained, and it was clear they were no longer going to let go of their "prey" that was almost within their grasp. They scattered and chased after them in different directions.
However, although Zhu Mu was running at the speed of his speed-type ability, he was only on par with the explosive power of the leopard-type alien birds behind him.
Unlike the leopards before the apocalypse, the leopard-type exotic birds have an astonishing explosive power and endurance far exceeding that of ordinary exotic birds. It can be said that if the man-eating ant-type exotic birds bite their prey, the prey will surely die. However, for the leopard-type exotic birds, once they have their eyes on their prey, it is a fight to the death.
That's why strong-type exotic birds are such a hassle... Ji Yueyao sighed, but her gaze remained fixed on the leopard-type exotic birds that were hopping up and down the treetops, searching for the best opportunity to attack.
Watching them form mud flowers in the soil under the tree, Ji Yueyao's gaze suddenly sharpened.
Wait a minute... she suddenly realized something...
The branches ahead suddenly became much sparser, and the bamboo had to constantly search for a new foothold as it moved forward at high speed... This slowed it down a bit, allowing the leopard-like exotic bird to get a few steps closer to them.
"This damned forest." A branch that Zhu Mu had just landed on suddenly snapped, and he slipped, nearly falling onto the muddy ground teeming with leeches and strange birds. Why were there fewer and fewer branches here? If there wasn't even a single branch ahead... Zhu Mu glanced down at the murky ground beneath the tree, regained his balance, and whispered, "Captain, when are we going to deal with those leopard-type strange birds behind us?"
"Immediately." Ji Yueyao said calmly, her gaze constantly fixed on the leopard-like exotic bird chasing behind her.
These leopard-type alien birds are too far away for them to use their powers... to put it another way, there's simply no way to take them down in one go.
However, running like this isn't a solution... Ji Yueyao bit her lip and narrowed her eyes slightly. "Zhu Mu, start slowing down from now on."
"What?" Zhu Mu thought he had misheard, and he stumbled and almost slipped.
"I told you to slow down," Ji Yueyao said again in a calm tone.
Should he slow down to feed those leopard-like exotic birds...? Zhu Mu hesitated, but he looked down at Ji Yueyao's head, sighed softly, nodded, and then gradually slowed down.
As soon as Zhu Mu slowed down, the leopard-like exotic birds chasing behind him drew much closer. In the dark forest, their eerie eyes gleamed with a dangerous light that was almost suffocating.
Completely focused on sensing the movements of the strange birds around him, Ji Yueyao closed his eyes and even held his breath.
Almost there... At this moment, the leopard-type exotic birds pounced on them all at once. Although they were still coming from different directions, in a way, this was also a way to wipe out all the leopard-type exotic birds in one fell swoop.
It is also the only way for her to use her powers to the minimum while gaining the greatest benefit.
Zhu Mu felt he was already crawling. He glanced back at the leopard-type exotic bird that was now almost within reach, took a deep breath, and slowed his pace further... He could even feel a chilling coldness on his back. (To be continued.)
