As soon as the words were spoken, the Gloomlight Butterfly and the Earth-Splitting Bear reacted quickly.
The speed that had been decreasing suddenly increased, and it crashed straight into the oncoming electric grid.
A crackling sound rang out instantly!
These lightning bolts are indeed real, but their power is not very strong!
In the blink of an eye, the three beasts crossed the net of lightning scattered in the air, and the gray sky reappeared in their sight.
Along with the rising sky, three figures began to descend towards the ground.
The three Calamity Beast increased their speed a little more!
If I hadn't been fooled just now, I might still have had time, but now...
"Bang!"
There was no time for a slow descent, and Zhou Xuan crashed heavily onto the ground.
Immediately following, a 'bang' sound came, and Lü Wenrui, carrying the investigators, also landed on the ground.
"Hurry up!" Lü Wenrui urged as soon as he landed.
"Nonsense, I know that without you saying it!"
Zhou Xuan responded with a slight twitch at the corner of his mouth.
He raised his hands and clapped them together, and the invoking deity instantly transformed from the Thunder God into the Earth God.
Then, the figure disappeared...
"Buzz--"
An invisible dagger suddenly pierced through.
Zhou Xuan was about to squat down when he suddenly stopped, and then everything went black before his eyes.
The cool water flowed through my mind, and my vision, which had gone black, returned in an instant.
At a distance of hundreds of meters, the Arcane Lizard's attack power was greatly reduced, but...
"Psychological attacks are disgusting!"
Zhou Xuan muttered a curse under his breath, feeling somewhat uncomfortable, and then quickly squatted down.
Raise your hand and press down.
The Origin Power surged rapidly from his palm to the ground beneath his feet.
Only at this moment did Zhou Xuan truly relax.
He raised his head, a smile playing on his lips as he looked at the three rapidly approaching Calamity Beast.
"Sayonara..."
The next instant, the figure suddenly sank and disappeared from the ground.
A few seconds later, three figures hovered in the air above where they had just been.
Then.
"Boom--"
A loud thud was heard as the plane landed.
What followed was a continuous rumbling sound!
A moment later, a dignified yet slightly weary voice rang out.
"Alright, stop now!"
The Earth-Splitting Bear paused, its raised arm momentarily still.
It stood in the deep crater it had created, looking up at the figure in the sky.
"Lord Two-Horned Lizard, are we not going to chase after them anymore?"
The Two-Horned Lizard gazed down at the Earth-Splitting Bear, using its mental senses to perceive the several figures rapidly descending.
"It's too late. They've already escaped far away. The only way to kill them is to strike before they land! Once they land, it will be too late to chase them!"
"Is that so? Damn it, it's all those damned humans' fault. They're so despicable! If that guy hadn't lied to us, we wouldn't have given them the chance to land on the ground!" the Earth-Splitting Bear said angrily.
"Indeed, these humans are far too cunning!" The Gloomlight Butterfly flapped its wings in mid-air, slowly circling.
"For every life, survival is their primary and most important goal!" The Two-Horned Lizard gazed calmly downwards. "From this perspective, they haven't done anything wrong!"
"Yes, Two-Horned Lizard is right!" Earth-Splitting Bear nodded.
"Alright, are you both alright?" The Two-Horned Lizard nodded and looked at the two beasts.
"Huh? We didn't even fight them head-on, so how could we be injured?" the Earth-Splitting Bear said nonchalantly.
"No, Lord Two-Horned Lizard is concerned about whether we were injured when we passed through that area of lightning!" the Gloomlight Butterfly reminded him.
As it spoke, it flapped its wings and looked at the Two-Horned Lizard.
"Don't worry, Lord Two-Horned Lizard, that lightning wasn't strong and didn't cause us any harm!"
So that's how it is?!... The Earth-Splitting Bear looked at the Two-Horned Lizard with some emotion, not expecting that the other party would notice even such a small attack.
It raised its paw and slapped its body forcefully.
"Don't worry, Lord Two-Horned Lizard, that Gloomlight Butterfly is fine, so I, Old Bear, will be even more safe!"
"Hmm, it's good that you're alright!" The Two-Horned Lizard nodded as if relieved.
The Earth-Splitting Bear chuckled foolishly, looking at the Two-Horned Lizard with reverence.
"But Lord Two-Horned Lizard, are you alright?" The Gloomlight Butterfly asked cautiously from the side, flapping its wings.
"Yes, don't worry, I'm fine!" the Two-Horned Lizard nodded.
Huh? No, is that even possible?... The Earth-Splitting Bear stared wide-eyed on the ground, feeling like it had missed a great opportunity to show its loyalty!
No, I need to come up with one myself!
Gritting his teeth, the Earth-Splitting Bear began to rack his brains.
"Won't letting those humans escape affect the plans made by Lord Lion King?"
The sound rang out again.
The Earth-Splitting Bear paused, glanced at the Ghost Disc with some resentment, and then turned its gaze to Lord Two-Horned Lizard.
"No," the Two-Horned Lizard said calmly, "They only see us together; they don't know what we're doing. Besides, even if they did, the humans in this Erosion Zone have no power to resist Lion King King's plan!"
"Can't they send a message out and send someone over?" Gloomlight Butterfly asked, somewhat puzzled.
"Yes, but to do that, the message needs to be sent to the nearest human city, then back to the city connecting those human worlds, and then sent out again for help." The Two-Horned Lizard paused here, slowly turning its head to look at the sky, "We don't have that much time to give them!"
Upon hearing this, the Gloomlight Butterfly thought about it seriously for a moment, and then finally felt relieved.
"Alright, let's continue our discussion that was interrupted!" the Two-Horned Lizard said, turning its gaze back to the topic.
The Earth-Splitting Bear moved slightly, intending to fly away from the deep pit.
But before it could take flight, it heard the Gloomlight Butterfly say again:
"Lord Two-Horned Lizard, wouldn't you like to rest? Although we didn't engage in much direct combat just now, you must be a little tired, right?"
Damn it, what's wrong with this guy's brain?... The Earth-Splitting Bear glanced at the Gloomlight Butterfly with some envy, then looked at the Two-Horned Lizard with the same concern.
The Two-Horned Lizard remained silent, offering no explanation for its exhaustion.
But it didn't immediately agree; instead, its eyes were unfocused, as if it were lost in thought.
"Hmm... At this point, I should show that I care deeply about the lives of the Calamity Beast below, endure my fatigue, and keep going. Yes, that's it!"
The Two-Horned Lizard thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement, but...
As the two Calamity Beast beside him, looking at him with concern, came into view, the Two-Horned Lizard couldn't help but feel a sense of confusion about the future.
"Will we have to keep pretending like this forever?"
"Damn it! I really shouldn't have lied to the other Calamity Beast like that!"
"Also, this broken ability consumes way too much power! It can't even last as long as those Calamity Beast that fight using Origin Power! And those humans all seem to have specially trained in mental power; they're very good at holding their own!"
"Hmm... it's still pretty impressive!"
"Lord Two-Horned Lizard?"
A reminder came from the side.
The Two-Horned Lizard forcibly suppressed its thoughts.
It looked at the two Calamity Beast staring at it, and with a heavy, serious expression, slowly shook its head.
"No, it hasn't come to that yet. More importantly, just as those humans don't have much time left, we don't have much time left either!"
"If we don't come up with a solution soon, who knows how many more of our kind will have to sacrifice themselves!"
After he finished speaking, the room fell silent for a moment.
Then, two voices filled with reverence echoed through the mountains and forests.
"Lord Two-Horned Lizard!"
"Lord Two-Horned Lizard..."
