Chapter 463 Perhaps I Can Find You This Time (1/2)
It blocked all our attacks?! The black-robed men were visibly shaken by this.
Their Lord-tier familiars had unleashed their attacks at their opponent all at the same time. All three of them were considered to be extremely powerful in comparison to other Lord-tier monsters.
How on earth did it block our combined attacks so easily... This isn't good!
Lightning suddenly cascaded upon them from the heavens. Boom, boom, boom!
A series of explosions rocked the forest. After a long while, the explosions died down, leaving most of the trees blown to pieces. The ground was scorched and pitted, with smoke slowly rising up from it.
A barrier composed of red, orange, and green could be seen in the smoke, flickering like a candle in the wind around the black-robed men.
”Taira no Masakado's familiars don't even pack that much firepower,” said the leader of the group in the Nihon language.
Though Gao Peng didn't understand what he had just said, he recognized what language the man was speaking in. People from Nihon? Gao Peng's face darkened.
”Are there more of you? If not... then you can all die,” said Gao Peng dangerously, his gaze sweeping across the black-robed men on the forest floor. He knew that they understood him perfectly.
All three of them looked at each other. ”Charge!” They shouted their battle cry in unison, evidently prepared to fight to the death.
Their familiars charged at Da Zi without any hesitation. As they were clearly outclassed by their opponent in terms of elemental mastery, they had no choice but to resort to close combat.
The White Steel Bladed Beast silently leaped down from Da Zi's back, then shook its wings and vanished on the spot.
The three enemy familiars' advance faltered. The Infernal Incinerator was first to sense that something was wrong. It let out a roar and turned back towards its master. But it was too late.
The White Steel Bladed Beast had appeared in front of the trainers, its front appendages held in a cross shape. Schwing— Blood sprayed out from its victims' headless necks, their heads sent flying into the air.
After taking damage from the White Steel Bladed Beast's attack, two of the black-robed men had disappeared, seemingly teleporting elsewhere.
Different trainers had different failsafe abilities at their disposal. The two trainers who had vanished didn't reappear next to any of the four Lord-tier familiars, which probably meant that they had other familiars stashed somewhere else.
Gao Peng was aware of such abilities. Huang Ya had awakened one himself, which he had named Critical Protection. When a trainer received mortal damage, this ability would be automatically activated, causing him or her to be teleported out of harm's way, like to one of their familiars' side.
However, their familiar had to be within a certain range in order for this to work. The ability wouldn't work if they strayed too far out of range.
The White Steel Bladed Beast sniffed its blade-like appendages, then flitted through the forest, tracking the scent it had picked up. Every part of its body was stretched taut, alert to the slightest disturbance in the air.
Then, its eyes lit up. Found you.
Flowing Light, the White Steel Bladed Beast, vanished once more into thin air.
Bang! The Infernal Incinerator swiped at the air, hitting nothing in particular.
”All right, that's enough. Playtime's over. Da Zi, give them all a clean death,” ordered Gao Peng, before leaping down from Da Zi's back with Desolion in his arms.
Da Zi narrowed its eyes and let out a cold hmph. Gao Peng can't carry that lion around in his arms all the time. It's already a big boy, so why's it acting like a cub around him? Does it have no shame?
Da Zi shook its dragon wings. In the next instant, it turned into a ball of harsh electrical light. Pzzzt!
