Although Sun Hao knew very well that the answer was obviously wrong, he still forced himself to say it.
"Tsunami?"
Ma Yuanbai was stunned for a moment, and the others also looked incredulous.
This is Xirong Mountain, where did this tsunami come from?
But Sun Hao did indeed hear that sound, like a tsunami, very clearly.
Moreover, the sound of the tsunami was exceptionally clear, as if it were coming from not far ahead.
Li Yu turned to look at Fu Xiyao.
After sensing the rainwater for a moment, Fu Xiyao shook her head at Li Yu, as she did not detect any unusual changes in the rainwater.
"rustle."
The sound grew closer and closer, soon reaching the vicinity.
"It's an earthquake, be careful."
As soon as Ma Yuanbai finished speaking, everyone felt the ground beneath their feet begin to shake violently.
"It's not an earthquake!" Li Yu suddenly realized something and shouted a reminder:
"There's something underground!"
The tremors grew stronger, and the sound of the waves grew closer; clearly, something unknown was rapidly approaching them.
"boom!"
Suddenly, a huge crack appeared in the ground, as if the earth had been ripped apart.
With a deafening roar, a massive, three-meter-tall beast suddenly leaped out from the ground.
Caught off guard, Zhao Xiong was violently knocked away, his body arcing through the air before crashing heavily to the ground some distance away.
"careful!"
"What a huge beast!"
Everyone's expression changed drastically in an instant; they had no idea that the beast had silently crept up in front of them.
"Create distance!" Ma Yuanbai made a decisive decision and quickly gave the order.
Li Yu grabbed Fu Xiyao and turned to run without hesitation.
Neither he nor Fu Xiyao had any close-combat skills, so staying behind wouldn't be of any help.
Li Yu glanced back and saw that it was a strange beast that could hide underground. No wonder even Fu Xiyao hadn't sensed it.
The deep blue beast stood there silently, its eyes gleaming with an eerie blue light, as if assessing the humans who had intruded into its territory.
"What kind of strange beast is this?!"
Ma Yuanbai's voice trembled as he looked at the strange beast, and the woman beside him hurriedly shielded him behind her.
The other awakened beings also quickly dispersed, forming a semi-circular defensive formation, each keeping a close eye on the suddenly appearing beast.
The beast's scales were covered with patterns resembling ocean waves, which emitted a faint fluorescence when washed by rain.
"Everyone be careful." Ma Yuanbai tried his best to remain calm and gestured for everyone to retreat slowly.
He didn't want to fight this unknown beast. If the beast could help them retreat safely, Ma Yuanbai would even be willing to take a longer route.
Seeing the crowd retreat, the beast suddenly took a step forward.
"rustle"
The beast's large feet were also covered with thick scales, which made a rustling sound when it moved, similar to the sound of a snake moving, which was terrifying.
Upon seeing the strange beast suddenly begin to move, everyone became highly vigilant, secretly mobilizing their energy, ready to unleash their supernatural attacks at any moment.
It seemed unwilling to let the group leave easily, as if it regarded them as its prey.
"Waaah!"
During the standoff, groans could be heard from not far away.
"That was awesome! Was I just hit by a cannon?"
Everyone turned to look and saw Zhao Xiong, who had just been knocked away by the strange beast, struggling to stand up from the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
"This is still good?" Li Yu looked at Zhao Xiong in surprise.
He genuinely admired Zhao Xiong's defensive capabilities; he had withstood a sneak attack from a strange beast and hadn't died.
"rustle."
The beast seemed to have noticed that its prey was still alive, and angrily walked towards Zhao Xiong.
"beat!"
Upon seeing the beast begin to move, Ma Yuanbai immediately ordered an attack.
The two awakened individuals in front immediately launched an attack.
A person pressed their hands to the ground, and the rainwater on the ground quickly froze into a thick layer of ice.
The other person's body hardened rapidly, becoming as solid as rock, and without hesitation, he charged forward and launched a fierce attack on the beast's limbs.
The beast's lantern-like eyes noticed the approaching person, and it took a step forward.
The sudden slip caused it to kneel on the ice, almost falling over.
"A great opportunity!"
The man who had turned to stone gritted his teeth and, with all his might, punched the beast's leg, which was struggling to maintain its balance.
Once the beast is knocked down, it will be difficult for it to get up quickly on the ice.
Li Yu also took out his crossbow and was about to aim.
The beast suddenly took a deep breath and then slowly opened its mouth.
"Whoosh—"
Then it let out a deafening roar, a sound like a tsunami that shook the heavens and the earth.
Everyone felt as if they had been hit by a powerful sonic shockwave, instantly closing their eyes and covering their ears in pain.
"It's a sonic attack."
Ma Yuanbai covered his ears and shouted a warning, he hadn't expected this strange beast to have such terrifying abilities.
However, at this moment, no one else could hear what Ma Yuanbai was saying.
Even Li Yu, who was furthest away from the beast, experienced tinnitus and was temporarily deaf.
The closest Rock Awakener fared even worse, feeling as if he had been struck on the head, and immediately collapsed to the ground, dizzy.
After the sonic attack, the ice on the ground was instantly shattered by the sound waves, turning into countless fragments.
The beast was thus able to stand up again and resume its movements.
Everyone present had a ringing in their ears.
