"Bang!"
The beast swung its claws, sending the human flying.
The Profound Crystal Griffin turned and darted off in another direction.
Yellowish-green smoke billowed towards us.
If it's at its peak, the Profound Crystal Griffin won't care about this type of attack.
But now, with injuries all over his body, rushing in directly might not cause any serious harm, but it certainly wouldn't be pleasant!
Thinking of this, the Profound Crystal Griffin flapped its wings and its figure suddenly rose upwards.
The altitude we are at is constantly changing! Constantly changing!
Finally, the Profound Crystal Griffin spread its wings and hovered in mid-air.
Yellowish-green smoke rose upwards, and several figures, as small as ants, busied themselves with their own tasks.
The Profound Crystal Griffin's gaze lingered on one of the figures, then it folded its wings, enveloping itself within them.
The next instant, the enormous figure crashed down like a meteorite!
A piercing sound of wind cutting through the air rang out.
Below, screams erupted.
"Run! Run!!"
Hearing the shout, the human below, releasing yellowish-green smoke, frantically tried to escape the attack's range, but...
"Bang--"
A tremendous explosion resounded across the ground!
Dust and snow, carried by the shockwave, covered an area of hundreds of meters in the blink of an eye.
Within the area, clods of earth, gravel, and broken wood flew outwards like bullets.
The sounds of gunfire, shouts, and muffled groans echoed from the outer perimeter.
The surrounding area was noisy, but the center of the bombardment was completely silent.
Two or three seconds later, a figure slowly climbed out of the deep pit in the center.
The Profound Crystal Griffin shook its head, trying to calm the dizziness in its brain.
The attack method just now not only damaged the enemy at the center of the impact, but also damaged it.
Fortunately, it was able to roughly control the power of what it initiated.
As for that human from earlier...
The Profound Crystal Griffin raised its eyes and looked in a certain direction.
There, a figure had just been forced to stop after crashing into the mountainside.
If we went there now, there's a good chance we could kill that human, but...
"Roar--"
A cacophony of beastly roars rose from the side.
The Profound Crystal Griffin turned its gaze away.
The human who looked like Calamity Beast lunged at them again.
Without hesitation, the Profound Crystal Griffin charged toward the human.
This time, it did not attack first, but allowed the human to approach.
The completely different fighting style startled the human slightly, but as the distance closed, he still had no choice but to charge up his attack.
At the very instant the human swung his claws to attack, the Profound Crystal Griffin also raised its claws to meet the attack.
"Laugh--"
Claws slashed across.
The figure flew backward, blood splattering in the air.
The Profound Crystal Griffin glanced at it briefly before quickly shifting its gaze to survey the battlefield.
The human who looked like Calamity Beast had just been slashed and sent flying;
The human who attacked with the wind blades had gotten up, but was still quite far away;
The one who could release poison gas had just landed, and the stronger one, fearing that he would be killed if he went over, ran to provide support;
The only remaining human who can pose an obstacle...
After glancing at the human who could burrow underground, the Profound Crystal Griffin turned its gaze to the last of the six humans.
The two stared at each other.
Although it couldn't see the other's pupils, the Profound Crystal Griffin was certain that the other had realized its purpose at this moment.
The next instant, he turned and fled.
Without hesitation, the Profound Crystal Griffin exerted a slight force with its feet, and its figure suddenly rushed forward to chase after it.
The battle changed from the very beginning.
It's not the process of fighting, but the purpose hidden beneath the surface!
From responding to killing!
This judgment was based on the injuries it had inflicted on these humans in the previous battle.
"Once I kill this human, the remaining humans won't pose much of a threat. Then it will be much easier to deal with!" the Profound Crystal Griffin thought.
Behind them, the remaining humans seemed to have also realized its purpose.
"Quickly, it's heading towards the Inspector Han! Quick, get backup!"
"No, we can't make it! It's too far!"
"Roar--"
Anxious! Angry!
Shouts echoed from behind.
The Profound Crystal Griffin ignored him, merely staring coldly at the human in the distance.
If this human is at their peak condition, they might be able to hold out for a while until reinforcements arrive.
However, one could tell from the other person's slightly hunched posture that they were not at their peak condition.
Moreover, it deliberately engaged in combat beforehand to prevent others from providing immediate support!
Now...
Looking ahead.
The human seemed to know that he couldn't escape by simply running away, so he turned around and raised his gun.
"Bang!"
Gunshots rang out.
The Profound Crystal Griffin opened its beak and exhaled a breath of ice, dispelling the attack and shooting towards the human in the distance.
The human had to move to the side to avoid the attack.
But because of this, the already rapidly closing gap has been reduced even more significantly once again!
"Whoosh--"
With a flap of its wings, the Profound Crystal Griffin appeared before the human.
It raised its claw and landed on the human's weapon.
The next moment.
"Clang!"
After enduring multiple attacks from Sixth Tier, the sniper rifle finally snapped in two.
The beast's claws continued forward, landing on the human.
"Clang--"
The figure flew backward.
Despite its relatively small weight, it flew away at a speed far exceeding that of the Profound Crystal Griffin.
However, it was merely clinging to life.
Sensing the situation outside, Han Ling barely managed to gather her Origin Power to protect herself.
The next moment.
"Bang! Bang!--"
The figure crashed to the ground, bounced several times, and was dragged for a considerable distance before finally coming to a stop.
She stood up.
As the mask was removed, he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
Excruciating pain was radiating from all parts of my body.
Han Ling stood there, panting.
" Late Fifth Tier might not survive, but Sixth Tier... is there really a chance of killing them...?"
Han Ling stared unfocusedly at the ground beneath her feet.
Before my eyes, it seemed as if all the experiences I had along the way were unfolding.
As a child, during my school years, while serving in the army, joining the Supervision Bureau, captain Shen Heng...
Suddenly, the scene paused, and Han Ling abruptly looked behind her.
There stood a Stone-Armored Beast, gazing in their direction.
Han Ling was slightly taken aback, then seemed to realize something and gave a wry smile.
"Is Stone really that unlucky...?"
She looked at the Stone, and a sense of relief suddenly appeared in her smile.
Whether we survive or not depends on our luck...
Han Ling said in a low voice.
A gust of wind swept in, and strands of hair clung to her cheeks.
She slowly withdrew her gaze and looked at the figure that had already risen above her.
Their eyes met.
Cold, indifferent...
The enormous beast's claw descended.
What greeted it was a slightly raised hand and a drooping bluish-white jade pendant...
