This time, the Limit Dojo was truly down on its luck; after making an emergency landing in the desert, they were immediately noticed by the Tyrant Dragon King.
The Tyrant Dragon King was a crimson dragon that soared through the sky like a burning flame. Every scale on its body had been tempered by the passage of time, as hard as iron; attacks from anyone below the rank of War God couldn't even leave a scratch on it.
"Hmph, these humans view us as mere beasts. Every time they come, they kill wantonly and even enslave my kin. I will never show them mercy."
Deep in its heart, hatred for humanity burned like an inextinguishable fire. Humans, these creatures who prided themselves on being the masters of all things, often stepped into their territory as conquerors, killing at will and enslaving their kind, turning this paradise that originally belonged to them into a bloody battlefield. The Tyrant Dragon King had witnessed its own kin wailing and struggling under the iron hooves of humanity, eventually turning into dust. It swore to repay this hatred with blood.
Upon learning that the martial artists of the Limit Dojo had fallen into the desert, the Tyrant Dragon King did not coddle these humans who had come to hunt. It immediately summoned its two subordinate Beast Kings—a Rock-Armored Beast with immense strength and a Wind Shadow Leopard with astonishing speed. These were Beast King-level monsters, yet they obeyed the Tyrant Dragon King, and they swore to wipe out these invaders in one fell swoop.
"Eliminate human tyranny, the world belongs to the beast race!"
The Tyrant Dragon King roared. It wanted to completely destroy all humans in the world and let the beast race rule the entire Earth. It circled in the air itself, like the shadow of death, shrouding the entire desert as it searched for the traces of those humans.
Even so, the elite squad of the Limit Dojo displayed a high level of responsiveness. As soon as they encountered the Beast Kings, they broke into smaller groups and went into hiding, waiting for reinforcements on one hand and trekking toward their destination on the other.
Being elite is not just reflected in combat power, but also in the ability to react to adversity. If they had fought head-on, how could they have avoided heavy casualties against the beast race? By breaking into smaller groups, they dispersed the Tyrant Dragon King's forces and instead killed many beasts with minimal losses to themselves; this was the wise move! It demonstrated the high comprehensive quality of the Limit Dojo—elites are truly remarkable.
The Flying Man Squad, as an elite force of the Limit Dojo, knew deeply that in this desert fraught with danger, any slight negligence could lead to the annihilation of the entire team. Therefore, when facing the threat of the Tyrant Dragon King, they also displayed high tactical literacy and survival wisdom.
Captain You, as a War God, was truly very reliable; he had already killed a Lord-level Monster, securing a path of survival for everyone.
"Haha! We are going to carve out our own path and uphold our dignity!"
Wang Tianba said excitedly within the team. He felt his decision was not wrong; following Captain You was more reliable than following Liu Yun.
However, their situation remained extremely dangerous. A single small accident was enough to plunge them into an irredeemable situation.
He Lan, a young female martial artist in the squad, carried a bottle of perfume with her.
While jumping over a dangerous spot, the perfume bottle fell. The glass bottle shattered instantly upon the violent impact, and a fresh, rich fragrance instantly permeated the air, forming a sharp contrast with the stifling atmosphere of the desert.
This sudden fragrance was like throwing a stone into a calm lake, instantly breaking the surrounding tranquility. The beast race had incredibly sensitive senses of smell, and with such a long-lasting perfume, it was impossible not to be exposed.
The Tyrant Dragon King's keen sense of smell immediately captured this unusual scent. Its eyes lit up, as if it had discovered the trail of its prey.
"Hmph, still trying to escape?" The Tyrant Dragon King let out a cold snort. Its massive body turned sharply in the air, and it dove toward the direction of the fragrance with an unstoppable momentum. Its wings, like two giant scythes, tore through the air and stirred up a gust of wind.
The other members of the Flying Man Squad saw this and their expressions changed drastically. They knew that He Lan's unintentional mistake had exposed the entire squad's location. Facing the pursuit of the Tyrant Dragon King, they had to react immediately, or the consequences would be unimaginable.
Captain You watched the Tyrant Dragon King approach. Countless thoughts flew through his mind, but he felt they were all useless. As his thoughts faded and his heart shattered, he could only let out a desperate roar.
"Scatter and escape! Those who survive, don't forget to look after each other's families."
After these words were spoken, everyone wept. This was a final parting. They just couldn't imagine that after hunting for half their lives, they would actually be killed by a woman's perfume.
"He Lan, if I survive, I'm not done with you!"
Xiao Wu cursed loudly. This bottle of perfume had now become a fatal poison! He Lan, this woman, not only caused division within the team but also attracted a fierce beast.
"Wuwuwu, I didn't mean to..."
He Lan cried while running after Captain You. Unfortunately, she eventually lacked the stamina. Captain You actually had the best chance of saving his own life, but to pull He Lan along, he had to face the Tyrant Dragon King head-on!
The Tyrant Dragon King roared wildly and spat out an energy ball, charging straight at Captain You. You Suowei could not dodge at all. His eyes widened, his muscles tensed, and he concentrated all the power in his body onto the shield in his hand, attempting to withstand this catastrophe with one final strike.
That energy ball contained destructive power, as dazzling and terrifying as a falling sun. With a deafening roar, the energy ball hit You Suowei's chest with pinpoint accuracy, piercing through it instantly.
The energy ball exploded in the distance, where the air seemed to be ignited. The shockwave from the explosion caused the sand in the desert to pour down like a rainstorm, blotting out the sky and sun. Captain You fell right there, his clothes stained red with blood, the flame of his life flickering and dying.
"Captain You!" The members of the Flying Man Squad exclaimed, their eyes filled with disbelief and grief. But the strength of the Tyrant Dragon King was unquestionable, and it soon set its sights on He Lan again; it naturally wanted to kill every human in sight.
However, just at this moment of despair, a familiar figure appeared beside He Lan like a ghost, pulling her into his arms and avoiding the Tyrant Dragon King's follow-up fatal blow.
"He Lan, don't be afraid, I'm here." A low and firm voice sounded in He Lan's ear. It was Liu Yun. He had arrived quietly, saving He Lan, who had been on the verge of a desperate situation, with incredible speed.
Seeing this, the Tyrant Dragon King roared, its wings flapping against the air and kicking up a sky full of sand. Its huge body circled in the air, its eyes flashing with anger and unwillingness. It hadn't expected that in this seemingly lifeless desert, there would still be someone who could so easily neutralize its offensive.
"Liu Yun, you really came." You Suowei held on to his last breath, looking toward Liu Yun, his eyes filled with both relief and regret. "Protect them well. My mission... I leave it to you. We have wronged you." Having said that, he slowly closed his eyes. A generation of War God had fallen.
