Chapter 307: Epic-tier Battle Beast
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The first to enter the arena was a giant lightning eagle that blotted out the sun. Its wingspan was more than thirty meters and its strong and sharp claws could easily crush a mountain peak.
Lightning flashed all over its body as if countless giant lightning snakes were coiling around it. The clear cry of an eagle rang out, splitting the clouds.
Along with the rumbling thunder that rang out from the horizon, everyone could not help but raise their heads to look.
At first glance, it was only the size of a plate but in the blink of an eye, it had already reached the top of everyone’s head. The huge wind pressure made people unable to open their eyes.
“What monster is this?”
“Little Silver is very scared. Even it’s shivering when hiding in the spatial inventory. It seems like we’ve met a natural enemy.”
Hathaway tightly hugged Locke’s arm to prevent herself from being blown away by the strong wind.
“Brother Locke, do we need help? The eagle has gone to the crater.”
Angela summoned Fallen Angel and was already prepared for battle. Fallen Angel was indeed an epic rank Battle Beast. In front of Thunder Eagle, it did not show any signs of fear. In fact, it was even a little eager.
“Don’t be rash. This is a thunder eagle at tier 7, a mature Battle Beast. It can control the power of wind and thunder.
“A Battle Beast of this level can even feed on dragons. Our Battle Beasts combined wouldn’t even be enough to feed it.”
Locke released his own aura to appease Angela’s Fallen Angel. Fallen Angel was still in its growth stage. Although it had great potential, it was not a match for it. Going up now was just courting death.
“Swamp Hydra is still inside. What should we do now?” Hathaway asked loudly.
At this time, the giant Thunder Eagle had already started to attack. A huge lightning bolt that was more than ten meters thick fell from the sky and directly smashed into the crater of the volcano.
Countless boulders cracked. The earth was trembling. It was as if it could not withstand half of this destructive power.
“Roar…”
Another loud roar was heard.
A huge mountain in the west suddenly collapsed. Amid the splashing of gravel, a huge earthen yellow bear woke up from its slumber and roared furiously.
Earth Bear, a Battle Beast below tier 8 in its mature stage. Legend had it that as long as one stepped on the ground, one would possess endless mana.
This huge bear had been hibernating here for an unknown period of time, so much so that the power of the earth had already condensed into real stones on its body. Countless plants, even giant trees, grew on it.
As the Earth Bear woke up, the earth trembled. Countless earthy yellow ripples spread out with it as the center, like ripples on the surface of water.
These were automatically generated when the earth element was extremely rich. Compared to it, Hathaway’s ancient ape Battle Beast was like a toddler.
When the ancient ape Battle Beast was fully grown, it might have the ability to fight it. Now, it was not even enough to fill the gap between its teeth.
“Brother Locke…”
Angela was a little scared. Fallen Angel, which had been eager to try earlier, began to feel uneasy.
As an epic tier Battle Beast, the Earth Bear had already entered adulthood while Fallen Angel had just passed its infancy.
It was as if a seven or eight-year-old child had encountered a strong adult. It did not even have the ability to resist.
Before everyone could be afraid, another loud explosion sounded from the east. It was as if hundreds of thousands of tons of gunpowder were hidden beneath the ground, exploding violently.
Countless pieces of soil, mixed with the flesh and blood of the Battle Beast, and crushed rocks flew up into the air.
A pitch-black giant dragon covered in inversed scales emerged from the ground, with a few hundred tons of bulls in its mouth.
Black Dragon was a tier 8 mid-epic Battle Beast. The bull was also one of the kings of the Hundred Thousand Mountains. Unfortunately, its resting place was too close to the Black Dragon. It had just woken up and was already treated as prey. It did not even have the power to resist and was treated as lunch.
“Roar…”
The Black Dragon roared at the Earth Bear.
The Thunder Eagle, which had been showing off its might just a moment ago, turned around and left when it saw the Black Dragon. Its speed was as fast as a bolt of lightning.
Unfortunately, halfway through, its body suddenly split into pieces and fell to the ground.
A huge transparent wind blade slashed across the ground, leaving a bottomless wound.
In an abyss somewhere deep in the forest, a huge toad slowly closed its mouth.
It was a Heaven-devouring Toad, an epic-tier Battle Beast below tier 8. It possessed an extremely powerful stealth skill.
The Thunder Eagle had not noticed it at all, and had flown past its head in a panic. The price for offending a king was death.
In addition, there was a Bronze-tier Dragon, Flame Tiger, and Cerberus.
Especially the Cerberus of rank 8, the aura of the two dragons was stifled. It was said that Cerberus was the gatekeeper of Hell. It was the slave of the grim reaper.
Its three heads had the power to devour souls and it could run in the sky on fire. Wherever it went, all living things would die, the trees would wither, and the rivers would dry up.
Even the demons in hell would be afraid of its power and would not dare to step into the human world. Cerberus in front of them had just passed its growth period.
Looking at the two dragons and the flaming flying tiger in the sky, saliva dripped from the corner of its mouth. It seemed that its interest in the three of them was far greater than Swamp Hydra, who was still transforming in the crater of the volcano.
“Brother Locke, are we going to escape?” Angela could barely stand.
She could clearly sense how terrifying these monsters were. Any one of them would be enough to cause a devastating disaster in the human world. Even destroying a country would be a piece of cake.
It was hard to imagine what kind of power had grounded them in the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
“In front of them, distance is meaningless. I’ve already said before, if you’re not ready to die, then don’t follow me here. Are you afraid?” Locke looked at Angela.
“No. As long as I’m with Brother Locke, I’m not afraid of anything.”
Although Angela was shaking all over, she still held onto Locke’s arm tightly.
As for Hathaway, she was already hanging on Locke’s body. At this moment, Little Silver did not dare to leave the spatial inventory at all.
Through her senses, Hathaway’s fear was ten times greater than Angela’s.
However, as a woman who had once been the city lord of Water City, no matter how much fear she had in her heart, she could overcome it with her powerful will. She did not use words to seek comfort like Angela did.
“Feel this power! When your Battle Beasts mature in the future, the power you have will not be inferior to theirs. What you lack now is experience and time. As long as you overcome this obstacle in front of you, you’ll definitely soar in the future.”
Locke released his aura again, forming a protective barrier to protect the two of them.
Hathaway gritted her teeth and summoned Little Silver.
