Chapter 61: Are these two people crazy?

Zhou Huai's pupils suddenly constricted.

A line of crimson data surfaced within his consciousness.

[ Sky Storm Falcon LV42 (Calamity-grade BOSS) ]

[ HP: 560000 / 560000 ]

Level 42.

Calamity-grade BOSS.

Zhou Huai's expression turned solemn to the extreme.

Run!

This was the only thought in his mind.

Without any hesitation, he immediately issued a command.

Yasuo grabbed Gandalf, who had just gotten up, and threw him back onto his back, turning around to run.

At this moment, he didn't dare to have the slightest intention of lingering in battle.

What a joke.

A BOSS of this level was simply not something he could contend with right now.

Any random skill could instantly kill the two Clones.

Not to mention the dark, oppressive army of the beast horde in the distance; they were already beginning to break free from the suppression of the Geocentric Gravity Field.

"Screech—!"

The Sky Storm Falcon in the sky clearly did not intend to easily let go of these two ants who dared to provoke its majesty.

Its eyes, burning with fury, locked tightly onto the blue electric light fleeing below.

Its wings suddenly beat.

In an instant, hundreds of cyan wind blades condensed out of thin air, shrouding down overwhelmingly like a fatal rainstorm.

Every single wind blade was enough to easily tear apart steel!

" [ Lightning Rush ]! "

Yasuo, under the control of the smart core ai, pushed his movement technique to the absolute limit.

His figure transformed into a zigzagging lightning bolt within the dense rain of wind blades, weaving through with unimaginable angles.

The wind blades grazed past his body, leaving deep ravines on the ground.

Pfft!

Amidst the chaos, the long sword in his hand swept out, decapitating a strange beast that had been affected by the previous explosion and was left with only a sliver of HP.

A warm current surged into his body along the blade.

The lifesteal effect of the Feral Set triggered, and his precarious HP bar was forcefully pulled back up by a small section.

"Awooo!"

Seeing that its attack missed, the Sky Storm Falcon became even more furious.

It opened its sharp beak, and a highly compressed cyan energy ball began to rapidly condense in its mouth.

The surrounding air distorted because of it, emitting a harsh buzzing sound.

The terrifying coercion descended like a mountain.

Zhou Huai felt his heart skip a beat.

The smart core ai did not hesitate at all, directly activating the final trump card of the Feral Set.

"[ Primal Surge ]!"

An original and violent power burst forth from within Yasuo.

His eyes flickered with a blood-red light, and at that instant, his running speed violently surged by double!

His entire person completely transformed into a streak of light difficult for the naked eye to capture, shuttling frantically through the woods.

Just the moment he rushed a hundred meters away.

Rumble—!

That cyan energy ball finally blasted out of its mouth.

It slammed heavily into the location where Yasuo had just been, like a falling cyan sun.

The destructive energy detonated with a boom.

A giant deep pit with a diameter of over fifty meters impressively appeared on the spot.

At the edge of the pit, everything turned into dust.

The gale formed by the shockwave pushed Yasuo's figure forward by dozens of meters more.

Looking at the terrifying scene behind him, Zhou Huai couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat.

The power of this BOSS's skill was simply too terrifying.

Only then did he completely realize.

He had thought wrongly from the very beginning.

Inside such a massive beast horde, there must be several terrifyingly powerful BOSSes.

This was definitely not something the current Yasuo and Gandalf could contend against.

Their previous behavior was far too rash; it was simply frantically probing on the edge of death.

The safest choice should have been to wait for the beast horde to clash head-on with the City Guard.

By then, these tricky BOSSes would naturally be dealt with by the experts in the city.

He could then take advantage of the chaos to fish in troubled waters, reap those mob soldiers, and complete the mission.

The pressure would be countless times smaller.

The top priority was to first shake off this group of pursuers behind him.

However, Zhou Huai quickly discovered with helplessness that no matter which direction he ran towards,

the completely enraged army of the beast horde behind him still chased closely like maggots on rotting bones.

…

Meanwhile, atop a towering mountain in the distance,

several adventurer teams were gathering here, looking down at the black torrent below with lingering fear.

"My god… This quantity is simply too much."

A young Professional turned pale, his voice trembling.

"With so many strange beasts, if they all charge to the base of the city… Donghai City won't be breached, right?"

An experienced middle-aged man beside him patted his shoulder and said in a deep voice,

"Don't talk nonsense."

"Mere tens of thousands of strange beasts are just a small scene."

"I've seen the big scenes of hundreds of thousands of strange beasts besieging the city a few years ago, didn't we still defend it successfully?"

"Those Magical Cannons on the city wall aren't for show."

Another person sighed and chimed in,

"That may be so, but this year's beast hordes are far too frequent."

"Our days as Professionals are getting harder and harder."

Just as everyone was discussing animatedly,

an eagle-eyed archer in the team suddenly pointed below and let out an exclamation,

"Look quickly, everyone! There seems to be someone in front of the beast horde!"

The shield warrior beside him chuckled upon hearing this,

"Stop joking, Ah Fei."

"That's a beast horde; how could anyone be in front of a beast horde?"

"Did your kid get so scared that your vision is blurring?"

Everyone else also chimed in to agree,

"Exactly, you must have seen it wrong."

However, the archer named Ah Fei became anxious and argued with a stiff neck,

"I didn't see it wrong! It's real!"

"If you don't believe me, see for yourselves! That person is running extremely fast, and he's even carrying someone on his back!"

Seeing him be so insistent, the crowd then half-doubtfully cast their gazes toward the front of the beast horde.

Professionals' eyesight far exceeded that of ordinary people.

Just for a moment, they truly captured a blurry blue light shadow in front of that surging black torrent.

For a time, the mountaintop fell into a deathly silence.

Only the sounds of people drawing in cold breaths could be heard one after another.

"I… Did I see it right? Re… Really someone?"

"What are these two guys trying to do? Are they crazy?"

A mage muttered to himself,

"Could it be… that they want to rely on just two people to stop the beast horde?"

The person next to him immediately looked at him like he was an idiot,

"Is your brain fried? How is that possible!"

A knowledgeable assassin speculated,

"It's very likely that these two unlucky fellows didn't have time to take refuge before the beast horde reached their faces."

"So they could only run desperately in front of the beast horde to seek a sliver of survival."

"Alas, how pitiful. I hope they can survive."

However, the previously mature-looking middle-aged man shook his head and let out a sneer,

"Survive? That's simply a fantasy."

"Look at the speed of the beast horde; in just a few minutes, they will be completely submerged by the beast herd behind them and trampled into meat paste."

However, just as his voice fell,

a sudden change occurred!

Rumble—!

A muffled, huge sound came from below.

Only to see the beast herd chasing behind the two people, as if hitting an invisible wall, stopping their steps in unison, their bodies even sinking violently downwards, deeply embedding into the soil.

The strange beasts behind that couldn't brake in time crashed into them one after another.

For a moment, chaos ensued, the scene resembling a large-scale consecutive car crash site.

In the sky, those flying strange beasts that were closely pursuing fell toward the ground in a clatter, uncontrollably like dumplings falling into a pot.

This wasn't over yet.

The crowd on the mountaintop had their eyeballs almost popping out.

They saw that the space above the heads of those two figures was torn apart.

Five huge meteors burning with eerie green flames, dragging long tail flames, whizzed and smashed into the densest part of the beast herd.

That scene was unprecedentedly shocking.

In the center of the beast horde, a giant beast the size of a mountain let out an angry roar. Disregarding everything, it directly stepped on the bodies of its companions and continued to chase toward those two figures.

In the sky, that cyan giant falcon let out a cry, frantically releasing world-destroying skills downward.

However, the speed of that blue light shadow was as fast as true lightning.

It was always able to narrowly avoid all attacks and continuously widen the distance.

This scene completely dumbfounded everyone on the mountaintop.

"This… This is simply too outrageous…"

"Is… Is that still human?"
