Elite Ferocious Beast, Misfortune and Fortune Intertwined

Until the swarm of Graystone Beetles and the two Kobolds disappeared from the sight of the four creatures, they exchanged glances, their eyes still somewhat bewildered.

"...What's up with them?"

"I heard that human say before that he had his own companions, could it be those two Kobolds?"

"It's rare for a human to be companions with Kobolds."

"Don't we have a Kobold in our team? What's so rare about it?"

The elf leader didn't think much of it.

Kobold A Huang and the human man looked at each other and grinned.

"Looking at them, could it be that the human accidentally provoked the insect nest, and now those two Kobolds are helping to kill the Graystone Beetles?"

"We Kobolds are loyal and righteous!"

A Huang was filled with emotion.

"Just like us!"

The tall, thin elf also nodded.

"Alright, let's not disturb them, let's go in another direction."

The elf leader waved his hand and led the way to another passage.

Time passed, and more than an hour later, the intense running made the two Kobolds pant continuously.

They looked ahead, the number of Graystone Beetles was even greater.

It had reached more than thirty, a vast and exaggerated sight.

After all, they would always encounter other Graystone Beetles along the way, and Lu Yuan had no chance to kill them, so he could only avoid them, and those Graystone Beetles all merged into the main force.

The Gene Warriors encountered along the way, seeing so many Graystone Beetles, retreated one after another.

Everyone looked at Lu Yuan leading a group of Graystone Beetles, as if they had seen a ghost.

It was outrageous, were they not afraid of death?!

The two Kobolds now felt a little scalp tingling when they looked at the swarm of Graystone Beetles.

If they were surrounded, wouldn't there be nothing left?

Their eyes passed over the swarm of Graystone Beetles and looked at Lu Yuan in front.

Lu Yuan's speed remained undiminished, and he didn't even look tired.

This made the two Kobolds' eyes filled with shock and confusion.

The brown-haired Kobold was so tired that his tongue was sticking out.

He panted and said:

"Big brother, what's going on with that human?! His speed is obviously not as fast as ours, how can his stamina be so long-lasting?!"

The gray-haired Kobold frowned, his face gloomy as he watched Lu Yuan's back, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"This shouldn't be... How could this be? Our spirit energy is almost exhausted. Logically, he should be more tired than us! How can he be completely fine?"

The gray-haired Kobold racked his dog-like brain, but couldn't figure out what went wrong.

"Big Brother, what do we do next? We don't have much spirit energy left in our bodies. If we continue like this, we'll be in danger if we encounter opponents."

The gray-haired Kobold naturally understood this.

He looked at Lu Yuan's back, his eyes flickering. After a long silence, he gritted his teeth and said:

"Consider this human lucky! We won't chase him anymore. Heh... With so many Graystone Beetles following him, I don't believe he can survive! He'll definitely be eaten until nothing is left!"

"Big Brother is right! I also think he definitely won't survive! It's letting him off easy."

"Let's stop."

The two Kobolds stopped, watching Lu Yuan leave with a group of Graystone Beetles.

Only after Lu Yuan disappeared with the Graystone Beetle swarm did they leave in another direction.

Lu Yuan would occasionally turn his head to check the situation behind him.

When he turned his head again and didn't see the two Kobolds, he was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed:

"Those two bastards finally gave up?! Damn it, how could they persist for so long?!"

Lu Yuan was a little speechless. Those two Kobolds had chased him for over an hour!

Over an hour!

Do you know how I spent this hour?!

He had almost run through a small area of the Graystone Forest, and encountered quite a few Gene Warriors.

He couldn't understand what made those two Kobolds so persistent.

Fortunately, Lu Yuan had specifically kept a Spirit Crystal as a precaution, and coupled with the Spirit Crystal he had just obtained when he encountered the two Kobolds, he had two Spirit Crystals in his hand.

By absorbing the spirit energy from the Spirit Crystals to nourish his body, he was able to maintain his stamina and keep running.

Even so, he had already started using the second Spirit Crystal.

Once this Spirit Crystal was used up, he would really have no way out.

Fortunately, the two Kobolds finally gave up.

However...

Lu Yuan turned his head, looking at the dense swarm of Graystone Beetles behind him, and the corner of his mouth twitched violently.

Damn it... He didn't expect to gather so many Graystone Beetles!

Aren't you guys tired, brothers?!

I'm not a stone, go eat stones!

Fortunately, Lu Yuan's speed was still slightly faster than the Graystone Beetles.

Before, after all, they had blocked those two Kobolds, and Lu Yuan could run a little slower in order to avoid accidents and conserve his strength.

Now, as long as he ran with all his strength, given a little time, he could easily shake off these Graystone Beetles.

Lu Yuan began to accelerate.

Gradually, he widened the distance from the Graystone Beetle swarm behind him.

Although Graystone Beetles still appeared from time to time in front of him.

However, Lu Yuan's speed didn't slow down much, and the newly appearing Graystone Beetles were gradually shaken off.

After another ten minutes or so, there was no movement behind Lu Yuan.

He turned his head and looked behind him, no Graystone Beetles were chasing after him.

Lu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, leaned against the stone wall, slowly sat down, and kept panting.

The spiritual power of the two Spirit Crystals had been completely consumed by him, and now his body was still very tired. Under such intense heat, his body seemed to be soaked in sweat.

Lu Yuan took out a bucket of water, gulped down several large mouthfuls, breathed a sigh of satisfaction, and poured water all over himself from head to toe.

Then he took out two energy bars and ate them. Feeling his body warm, Lu Yuan couldn't help but smile.

It feels so good to be alive.

After resting for a while, Lu Yuan stood up and began to observe his surroundings.

The location he was in had four huge stone pillars, dividing it into four passages, and the center was a small square of about a hundred meters in radius.

The surrounding environment was very quiet, with no sounds of fighting.

During the previous period of full-speed running, he didn't know which direction he had run in.

Anyway, no matter where he ran, surviving was the most important thing.

Next, he could continue hunting in peace.

Lu Yuan randomly chose a passage and walked in.

Before long, Lu Yuan encountered a lone Graystone Beetle.

He rushed up and quickly killed it, collecting the gray stone armor and Spirit Crystal.

Lu Yuan absorbed the Spirit Crystal, and his physical strength began to recover quickly.

Lu Yuan continued to move forward along the road. After walking for a while, he suddenly stopped and stared ahead with wide eyes.

In front of him was a dead end.

A dead end was a hundred meters away, but in the area at the end, there were two Graystone Beetles eating rocks.

The appearance of these two Graystone Beetles was completely different from the ones Lu Yuan had encountered before.

They were about one meter tall, and there was a black stripe on their gray stone armor backs.

Black-Striped Graystone Beetles.

Lu Yuan immediately reacted.

This is a strong Graystone Beetle, an elite-level ferocious beast!

Unlike ordinary ferocious beasts, elite-level ferocious beasts of the same race are several times stronger than ordinary ferocious beasts! Not only that, but they also possess special combat skills, making them extremely powerful.

Even if the Graystone Beetle is the weakest type of ferocious beast, their elite ferocious beast, the Black-Striped Graystone Beetle, is still a very powerful existence.

And here there are two of them.

This is not the reason for Lu Yuan's shock.

What really shocked Lu Yuan was that behind the Black-Striped Graystone Beetles, there was a wooden box quietly placed.

The box was about half a meter high and looked unremarkable, but it made Lu Yuan's heart beat faster.

A treasure chest from the Origin Land contains all sorts of treasures!

Precious transcendent genes, Gene Armaments, powerful special potions, and even precious knowledge, etc., can all be obtained from treasure chests.

For any Gene Warrior, encountering a treasure chest is like hitting the jackpot.

It represents a huge harvest!

Misfortune and fortune depend on each other. Lu Yuan didn't expect that after being chased for several hundred streets, he would accidentally encounter a treasure chest?!

This luck, should I say, is worthy of me?

The problem now is... what to do about these two Black-Striped Graystone Beetles?

Lu Yuan looked at the two large Graystone Beetles and felt a bit of a headache.

He would have some difficulty killing two ordinary Graystone Beetles, let alone the elite-level Black-Striped Graystone Beetles.

A single one could beat him to a pulp.

Two together would be a mixed double beating while hanging him up.
