310 Razortail Drake (1/2)
Mo Fan rode on the Swift Star Wolf as he landed on a wide street filled with rubbish and mud.
The street was around two kilometers long. It most likely used to be one of the main streets of Jinlin City. The surrounding buildings were relatively taller, and consisted of office buildings and high-rises.
The buildings were corroded with some strange-looking mud. They looked liked construction frames without any windows. The buildings were severely ramshackle, with broken pieces scattered nearby...
As he followed the street for a hundred meters, Mo Fan soon discovered a cement wall blocking the path ahead. The height of the wall was similar to the buildings nearby, blocking vision like a huge dam.
The Swift Star Wolf quickly reminded Mo Fan that the place after the wall was extremely dangerous.
With his enemies catching up behind, Mo Fan headed up the slope of the wall without hesitation. However, when he reached the top, a giant hill suddenly took up the entirety of his vision.
Why would there be such a tall hill right in the middle of the desolate city?
After taking a closer look, Mo Fan instantly shivered.
It was not a hill at all. It was actually a nest built with dried mud. The nest was located right at the busiest place of the city. It was over a hundred meters taller than the tallest skyscraper in the city, and seemed to almost have reached the clouds.
The hill was densely packed with holes. There were so many of them they would make one's scalp numb from trypophobia.
{Editor's Note: Your word of the day!}
Each of the holes was a den of the Giant Lizards. Mo Fan was already intimidated when the Swift Star Wolf mentioned that there were more than ten of their nests ahead. However, when he cast his eyes over this nest that was taller than a skyscraper, he immediately felt the urge to leave.
Screw the adventure to the lion's den, screw the slim chance of surviving he thought he had. If all the beasts inside this nest were to come out, they could easily destroy Jinlin City all over again.
”No, something isn't right. I don't feel that many auras...Could this be the leftover habitat for the Giant Lizards, as most of them have withdrawn to Dongting Lake? It is only an empty shell?” Mo Fan soon calmed down.
It was Mo Fan's first time witnessing a demon beast's next. The visual impact of it was comparable to witnessing a skyscraper made by humans.
Most importantly, Mo Fan noticed that the dried mud was actually mixed with vehicles, light poles, advertisement boards etc. The hive was not purely made of mud. It was mixed with a variety of objects, including corpses...
”If all that's left is an empty shell, or maybe there are a few of Giant Lizards living in it, I might still have a chance...Oh mama, it's that guy!” Mo Fan was in the midst of his murmuring when he saw a pair of giant wings extending out at the peak of the hive.
Mo Fan took a closer look and realized that the movement of the wings felt like a simple stretching. A giant red head was hanging right beside the hive. Its mouth was half-open, with drool flowing out like a water tap.
It was the Commander-level beast that had killed the Pseudomorphing Demon Beast with a single bite, an Advanced Razortail Drake!
The Razortail Drakes bore great similarities to the dragons of the West. They had originated in a different country. The Razortail Drakes were considered a subspecies of the dragons who had moved to Dongting Lake sometime in the past, and had dwelled there for hundreds of thousands of years, becoming an intimidating species of demon beasts.
