Black Knight

Chapter 4: The King of Beasts

Views:

The strong and sharp claws of the Crocodile Tiger Dragon plowed the ground heavily, crushing the roots of a tree exposed on the surface and kicking up a thick pile of flying soil. It roared and shot out its poisonous acid tongue again. Wu Qi saw its advance action and used his knife to avoid it. However, a small ball of acid jumped out of its tongue and hit Wu Qi's shoulder, instantly corroding the animal skin clothing on his shoulder.

At the critical moment when every knife and claw was crucial, Wu Qi's adrenaline was secreted in large quantities, his body temperature gradually rose, his movements became more powerful, and his eyes were always focused!

Seize the moment! When Wu Qi was keenly aware of a slight flaw caused by the lack of balance when Crocodile Tiger Dragon was killing Crocodile Tiger Dragon, he used up nine percent of his strength to stab the long knife horizontally into Crocodile Tiger Dragon's neck, which already had multiple wounds. . This long knife, which is not afraid of acid and can cut through hard animal hides, has temporarily become a part of the neck tissue of Crocodile Tiger Dragon. The acid remaining on the blade corrodes into the fragile tissue.

The Crocodile Tiger Dragon was severely injured, but it could not scream. It raised its powerful arms, but could not hit Wu Qi's body. His life gate was clamped by a long black knife, strangled to death, and his vibrant body was also like The cracked bottle body leaked a large amount of life essence.

Although the beast is injured, its strength is still there, and what follows is a long physical tug-of-war. Twenty minutes later, with Wu Qi's superb experience and a little bit of luck, Crocodile Tiger Dragon died with hatred in despair because he could no longer hurt Wu Qi.

Pulling out the long knife from the prey's neck again, bathing in the splash of hot animal blood, Wu Qi seemed to be a human again. After the disaster, Wu Qi clenched his fist and sealed the gate of his heart with a crushing blow.

The hurdle that Ruorong left for him to escape was finally overcome by him!

Afterwards, while inspecting the body of Crocodile Tiger, Wu Qi was surprised to find that the severed tail of Crocodile Tiger had obvious signs of growth in the past twenty minutes. Wu Qi firmly believes that strength is supreme, but he will not brazenly believe that he can win 100% from the beginning. He understands the luck involved. Crocodile Tiger Dragon has obviously devoured a mutated animal with the ability of "quick recovery". If it is given a little more time to allow this ability to grow rapidly, it is very likely that it will fail in the hunt or even die.

But life and death, victory and defeat, will never happen again.

It was obviously unrealistic to drag the Crocodile Tiger Dragon back to the cave. Wu Qi cut off the materials he wanted on the spot, packed them in his luggage and took them back to the cave. By the way, the data of Crocodile Tiger is also recorded in the animal skin notebook as a case reference.

When he was about to leave the familiar cave after living here for 9 years, Wu Qi's iron-like heart could not help but feel a slight fluctuation.

He seemed to see Ruo Rong sitting on a stone bench, roasting animal meat for him and imparting knowledge to him. That charming figure of a woman, and her voice and smile that sent waves into his heart, made him willing to be shattered to pieces, but also to follow her.

"Why did you leave me in the first place, Sister Ruorong?" Wu Qi muttered to himself, then waved away the old memories that appeared in front of his eyes.

After packing the larger animal skin rug into his luggage, Wu Qi could truly leave here at any time. Ruorong said that the furs of these mutated animals can be exchanged for money down the mountain, but what is the scene like down the mountain

It may seem more complicated than the dangerous mountains, but as long as I can find you, no matter how dangerous it is, it doesn't matter. Besides, you said that I don't belong in this mountain to begin with.

Wu Qi asked himself and his heart, and finally packed up his bags and set off.

The journey down the mountain was very long, and Wu Qi was already prepared for the long journey, but just ten meters after he left the cave, he keenly sensed a restless life around him.

Wu Qi smoothly slashed open the bushes with his knife, revealing the true face of the little animal that had secretly lurked within five meters of him.

This is a red fox with fiery red smooth hair all over its body. It looks like a teenager who is about to reach adulthood. Wu Qi put away the long knife after seeing its true appearance. After all, he had seen many of the Red Fox family and it posed no threat to him.

In my memory, 9 years ago, the red fox family was eating the entrails of Ruo Rong's unwanted prey at the door of their cave. After Ruo Rong left without saying goodbye three years ago, he followed his childhood memories and indulged them to continue eating without interacting with them. There were conflicts.

But I'm leaving, will you come to see me off

Wu Qi was puzzled. He took a good look at the young red fox and looked into its eyes. If Rong once mentioned that foxes understand human nature, Wu Qi was once doubtful about it, and that has not changed now.

Suddenly, the little red fox chirped at Wu Qi, the sound was high-pitched and small, like a whimper. It raised its fluffy tail, turned back and took a few steps, then turned to look at Wu Qi.

Wu Qi seemed to understand something and followed him. Following this, he saw a fox den that he had not seen in nine years.

Unfortunately, it was a fox den trampled by the footprints of giant beasts. The female fox that often came to eat the entrails only had an ugly half-body body and tangled hair stained with blood on the ground. Wu Qi was used to seeing animal carcasses, but when the little fox lay whimpering next to the female fox's body, his heart broke. It seemed to accelerate a bit.

Wu Qi carefully checked the fox den and found that there was no trace of the other little foxes. There was not much blood on the ground, but judging from the size of the giant beast's footprints, it was probably big enough to swallow the little foxes alive.

It's just that the smell of this giant beast is a little too familiar.

Soon Wu Qi understood that the one who trampled this fox den not long ago was the crocodile, tiger and dragon.

He once again looked at the whimpering little red fox who looked at him with pitiful eyes. At this moment, he really believed that foxes understand human nature.

"Carrying a little fox is not a burden to me." Wu Qi said, then reached out and picked up the little red fox. He saw a bloody wound on the little red fox's right hind leg, as if it had been cut by a sharp shrub leaf while running.

"Injured, infected."

Wu Qi shook his head. His ability was not enough to help the fragile little red fox contend with the mutated bacteria in the forest. But just when he decided to let the little red fox go and let it fend for itself, he suddenly saw that the wound on the little red fox's hind leg was healing itself astonishingly. Although the speed was very slow, it had already exceeded the natural healing speed.

Needless to say, this is the power of "quick recovery". It turns out that Crocodile Tiger Dragon's last fatal power was obtained by eating the Red Fox family.

Doubts, answers, and finally the corners of the mouth slightly raised. Wu Qi showed a cheerful smile for the first time after Ruorong left. Even he didn't know it, but he actually smiled from the bottom of his heart.

"If you are willing to follow me, from now on, your name will be July."

The little red fox whimpered happily, and the tone was different from the previous miserable whimpers. Its eyes flashed with the strange light of an animal, but Wu Qi seemed to understand a little bit.

Journey, let’s set off.

The road is long and far away, I will search up and down.
