Chapter 554 Mutated Lion
Before Li Yue asked Ye Lang what he was doing, Ye Lang said, "Just tell me what's ahead. You can tell me how to go back later!"
"Okay... and, please put me down! I'm not weak now, I don't need you to carry me while I walk!!!" Li Yue struggled in Ye Lang's arms, but to no avail.
Ye Lang's strength and the masculine aura he exuded gradually softened Li Yue's struggle.
"Although you are not weak, you run too slowly. I will hold you and run faster!" Ye Lang said, and then used his actual actions to prove his words.
At first, Li Yue didn't understand what Ye Lang meant by "I'll hold you and run faster." But when she saw Ye Lang running at an extremely fast speed and heard the whistling wind in her ears, she understood that Ye Lang was dissatisfied with her running too slowly.
However, she was simply running too slowly. This speed was faster than a thousand-mile horse. How could she compare with him? No wonder he appeared thousands of miles away yesterday afternoon. So that's how it was. It turned out that he really ran here carrying her!
All this seems a bit incredible. This speed is really puzzling. It is purely driven by foot power, without any magical power. This is the most puzzling part.
Ye Lang, ah Ye Lang, how many secrets do you hold, how many puzzling things do you have?!
Li Yue had given up studying the details of the strange phenomenon happening to Ye Lang. She was no longer surprised. The wisest choice was to treat this as a habit.
Li Yue slowly leaned her head against Ye Lang's chest, quietly listening to his heartbeat. This made her completely forget the passage of time...
"Roar..." A violent roar woke Li Yue up.
"What's going on!? Huh? It's almost noon already?"
Although Li Yue didn't know how much time had just passed, she was sure that it was almost noon. The position of the sun in the sky made it very obvious to her that Ye Lang had been running for at least four or five hours since this morning.
He was able to maintain this speed for so long. I thought it was just a temporary thing, but I didn't expect it to last this long!!
Let’s not worry about that for now. What was that roar just now?
"Ah, a lion..." Li Yue saw a lion chasing behind her. It was very majestic and powerful, and it kept following Ye Lang.
"Did you just realize it? It's been chasing me for an hour. This lion is really good. It can follow me for so long without any sign of fatigue." Ye Lang said with a smile.
"It's been an hour? It seems that this is not an ordinary lion. How did you provoke this lion? It is impossible for it to follow you for so long for no reason." Li Yue asked. How could an ordinary lion chase for so long? Even if it had the strength, it would not have the mind to do so.
Generally, lion cities have territories, and they will not continue to pursue if you leave the territory too far.
Also, this lion is not ordinary yellow, but fiery red. It is obviously not an ordinary lion, and it is very likely a magical beast.
"When I was running, I accidentally stepped on its tail, and it kept chasing me!" Ye Lang answered casually.
"..." Li Yue could imagine that Ye Lang must have run too fast at that time, and he didn't care about the lion. He might just see it as an ordinary thing. Although the fiery red color is not common in the grassland, with Ye Lang's confused personality, he would still see it as ordinary.
"Do you see it as a rock or something?"
"? How did you know? I haven't told you yet. It was curled up in a ball at that time, and I thought it was a lump of red soil..." Ye Lang said.
“…”
"Has this lion mutated? It's actually speeding up. Damn it!!" Ye Lang suddenly found that the lion behind him was closer. He felt that the lion was a little faster, and he could feel that there was magic power flowing in the lion.
"You can tell it's a Warcraft at first glance, what's the mutation..." Li Yue said unhappily. Warcraft has many different abilities, and perhaps running fast is the ability of this lion-shaped Warcraft.
"It's a monster, yes, but it must be a mutated monster. I haven't seen any records about this lion. It must have just evolved from an ordinary wild beast." Ye Lang said.
Regarding Warcraft, in addition to those that have Warcraft bloodline, there is another type that evolved from ordinary wild beasts. However, this type of evolution is very difficult to achieve and the conditions are very harsh.
However, there are more than tens of millions of wild beasts in the world. Even if the probability is very low, there is always this possibility. It's just that the chance of encountering this kind of monster is very low, and it is generally not discovered until this mutated monster begins to grow its own population, and then it will slowly become known to everyone.
"How can you be sure it's a mutation? Maybe it's the second or third generation." Li Yue said a little unconvinced, wanting to find some fault with Ye Lang.
"No, when I stepped on this lion just now, there was a group of ordinary lions nearby. That's why I thought this lion was a lump of red mud." Ye Lang shook his head and said.
"You see a group of lions, why are you running towards them? Aren't you looking for death?" Li Yue spoke immediately after hearing Ye Lang's words.
"Can ordinary lions catch up with me? It doesn't matter if I pass among them. They will chase me after a while and then stop. It's just that the one at the back is a bit troublesome..." Ye Lang said nonchalantly.
"It seems to be getting faster again. If it continues like this, we will be caught up." Li Yue looked at the lion behind and noticed the change in speed.
"It will speed up, and so will I. Hold on tight!" As Ye Lang spoke, he began to exert force on his feet, and immediately widened the distance, causing the lion behind him to be stunned for a moment. Then he heard it roar and continued to accelerate.
Li Yue didn't notice this situation. She just listened to Ye Lang's words and held Ye Lang tightly. She didn't want to put too much burden on Ye Lang, and wanted to reduce it as much as possible.
"Ye Lang, how about you put me on your back and I will hold you so you can run faster!" Li Yue said softly after a while.
"No need. This lion shouldn't last long. I can still do it! If I carry you on my back, if the lion has any moves, I won't let you block it for me. This won't work!" Ye Lang said, shaking his head.
"..." Li Yue was stunned. She didn't expect Ye Lang to still be thinking about her at this time, and because of this, he gave up a better choice.
In fact, if you think about it, if Ye Lang hadn't been holding her, he would have shaken off the lion long ago, but he didn't do that and didn't abandon Li Yue.
