Eagle beastmen’s vision was definitely the best in the world of beastmen. Even when they were flying high up over 10,000 meters in the sky, they would be able to accurately discern the animals on the grass plains. Even the slightly bigger butterflies and wild snakes wouldn’t be able to escape from their eyes.
Moreover, Muir had already arrived at the borders of the oasis and was just several thousand meters away from the lake. At one glance, he saw the shaking tree leaves, and there was a hint of yellow color inside that was about the same color as that of sand.
However, although the hint of yellow was in the dark, it showed a vague golden color. That was not the color of sand. Muir concluded that an animal was definitely inside.
Food was rare in the desert, and if they were to encounter prey, how could they not hunt it?
Muir had come here for a drink. His lips were parched and peeling. Although there was clear water right in front of him, he didn’t go over to take a sip. The hunger he was feeling drove him to look for food.
He slowly got close to the rock, his wounds covered by densely packed sand and unseen by the naked eye. Even a lot of the blood scent was covered up.
To ensure that everything went on smoothly, he even especially went against the flow of the wind.
The three beastmen hidden under the rock didn’t capture any scent. They didn’t say another word and were so quiet as if they didn’t exist.
Suddenly, a hand came scooping over, clearly by someone standing on the rock. Most beastmen’s arms wouldn’t be able to reach in, but this one could reach halfway in.
Thankfully, it was Parker who was faced against this arm. His reaction was swift, and he immediately dodged back, avoiding the claw-shaped hand.
Gah! Alva was given a great scare and he let out a loud cry uncontrollably.
Roar! Winston also bellowed, but he didn’t panic. He was ferocious.
At the next instant, Winston jumped out from under the rock, turning his body to face the rock.
Since Muir failed in his sneak assault, he might receive retaliation if he made a second attempt. Therefore, he planned on flipping over the rock and catching the target directly.
However, he hadn’t been able to make the move yet. He hadn’t even drawn his arm back and it was still reaching downward, with his body squatting on the rock. He looked a little silly.
