Book 5 Chapter 73 - Snow Country
A weak light flashed past the dark forest Based on his intuition, Aire felt that it should be the radiance released by that thing That was a dark and weak purple light that flashed past within the shadows However, in that instant, Aire discovered that it wasn't two lights, but rather an expanse of brilliance displayed by ether
”damn it, another mutated creature!” Aire sed his saliva with difficulty The palms of his hands were covered with sweat The auto towards the ground Most advanced creatures in the olden era had two eyes, but many mutated creatures' distinctive trait was their ical standpoint, this didn't seem to make much sense, but this was reality
Aire hatedthe unknown, and most times, fear came from the unknown No one knew exactly how many mutated creatures there were in this world, and they knew even less exactly what type of e to hide behind the safety of the village's walls, but his battlefield experience deure out what exactly it was, and it would be best if he could then eliminate it The traces he found in the livestock shed proved that the tall walls only appeared to be safe, the cheainst most nor to this thing In addition, Aire was the one with the greatest fighting strength in the entire village, as well as the one with the most combat experience In a coht not necessarily be an advantage, often only increasing the casualty count
Even though he was sent to this remote and desolate place to serve a penal sentence, Aire was still a captain with honor and a sense of responsibility; this was soed
Aire controlled his breathing, held his automatic rifle horizontally, and then slowly entered the forest The ht into the darkness, Aire's sight teht at this moment, a dark shadow flashed past in front of hi into the forest depths with a few leaps Aire still didn't see this thing clearly, but he confirmed that it should be around the size of a stray cat This ilance Even if it truly was a stray cat, if he didn't deal with it carefully, he still ht be seriously injured Moreover, when he saw its size, Aire understood even less how that bull disappeared
He straightened his body a bit, and then continued into the depths of the forest His experience told hi for already wasn't that far
In the forest, a faintly discernible bloody odor wafted through the rich plant smell The faint odor was immediately seized by Aire's sharp nose He took a deep breath, determined the direction it cae trees
Afterhis way around an ancient tree that was about the thickness of a person, Aire was suddenly du!
The lost bull laid right before hi at all, as if asleep However, Aire, with his abundant battlefield experience, could tell with a single glance that the bull's eyes were an abnormal purplish black color, the eyelids even split open This was a manifestation of utter fear!
To bein the snoas not 'a' bull', but rather 'half' a bull!
What remained below the bull's shoulder blades was only white bones without a bit of flesh However, everything above its chest and shoulders was perfectly intact However, when Aire scanned his narrowed eyes over it, he immediately discovered that the bull's dark fur had a few criss-crossed black lines, these lines easily overlooked if one didn't examine it carefully He immediately found similar lines on the latter half of the bull's skeleton The corners of Aire's eyes continuously twitched He finally kne the bull h that narrow ventilation shutter, but he would have preferred that he didn't
This ht was chopped into several dozen pieces, brought out piece by piece, and then reassembled here However, not even a master with the most exquisite craftsmanshi+p could chop up the entire bull in such a neat and orderly fashi+on, the bull that was pieced together afterwards almost no different froher sword or blade master froht suddenly eed in Aire's mind If this was really was done by that stray cat like creature, then cutting apart his own brains should be no harder than tearing apart cheese
”damn hing down on his chest, his breathing even becoht friction sound that should not belong to this forest suddenly sounded from above him Aire suddenly raised his head On a tree trunk several
This was an indescribable creature Its strea and fine, and there were several winding areas Its body rapped under dark blue-green skin, the surface of the skin swirling with faint radiance When it quickly e with the surrounding environh this didn't make it invisible, it made it difficult for human eyes to capture its location There were two pairs of limbs that extended froer The surface of these lireen flickered with a metallic luster, their sharp tips deeply embedded into the tree trunk From its forceful body lines, its four limbs should be able to easily tear into the tree trunk At the front of its body were two blades siit not look like the lied executioner's blade The two blades were twenty centi like they could disth to spare There were as many as sixteen s with a purple color, the other half displaying all kinds of radiance
It was nailed perpendicularly to the tree trunk, its eyes staring at Aire Its blades continuously rubbed against each other, as if it was a bit nervous and restless
It was a creature full of power and strearacefulness and arrogance Unlike those strange and ugly ly, only et about seeing so like this before, Aire had never even heard of a creature like this As soon as his autorinding of its blades i Aire intelligently stop all ht display hostility However, he didn't dare retreat either, out of fear that he ht draw the instinctive attack of the other party
He couldn't advance, but he couldn't retreat either Before fa himself with the other party's nature, he couldn't idly The only thing he was glad about was that he didn't bring any villagers with hi's speed and destructive force that could easily cut through a ht over, they still likely wouldn't stand a chance Right now, Aire only hoped to not anger this little creature It was fine if it often cah its ability to eat half a flesh bull placed quite the pressure on the village
