"Run! Run!"

"Don't block the way!"

"Damn it, that human is chasing you, why are you running to the side? Why are you coming this way?"

"Can you block her for me?!"

"I'll block your way..."

The last few shouts seemed somewhat unusual, and the Red Mane Beast turned its head to look into the distance.

A Fourth Tier Shadow Wolf was seen howling loudly at a Fourth Tier Blazing Flame Hound, its figure rapidly flying towards it.

Behind it, a slender figure rapidly approached.

Then.

"Swoosh! Swoosh!"

Two arrows struck, and both Calamity Beast fell to the ground.

The human quickly reached out and took out two Origin Crystal, then glanced around before chasing after a certain direction again.

"Thank goodness, we weren't going in that direction!"

The Red Mane Beast breathed a heavy sigh of relief, feeling quite lucky that its direction had never been chosen by that human.

However, still somewhat uneasy, it continued to fly rapidly upwards.

Now, the only place on the entire mountain where it feels safe is with the Bronze Skull Beast.

Unfortunately, the Mountain of Truth is too vast. Although it is located halfway up the mountain, it still takes quite a while to reach the top.

But why hasn't Lord Bronze Skull Beast come down yet?

Somewhat puzzled, the Red Mane Beast looked up.

One after another, Calamity Beast, just like it, flew rapidly upwards.

Not only the Fourth Tier adults, but even the Fifth Tier adults were watching the human's movements while adjusting their positions.

After all, that human was Sixth Tier. If he went and confronted them, they would likely only have death as their only option!

However, these are not its goals.

The Red Mane Beast continued to look upwards.

Before it reached its peak, it suddenly stopped, stopping on a figure rapidly descending.

Nearby, other Calamity Beast seemed to have noticed this as well, and began to shout.

"Great! Lord Bronze Skull Beast is down! Everyone, hold him off! Don't let that human escape!"

"Lord Bronze Skull Beast..."

"Go! Don't let that human get away!"

The Calamity Beast were instantly invigorated.

However, it was just a shout; no foolish Calamity Beast actually tried to grab the human.

The Red Mane Beast also breathed a sigh of relief.

It gradually slowed down, its gaze following the figure hurtling straight down, and finally came to a stop.

Below, the human also noticed that the Bronze Skull Beast had passed by.

After swiftly dispatching another Calamity Beast, he looked up to confirm the location of the Bronze Skull Beast Lord, then turned and flew towards the distant horizon.

The Bronze Skull Beast adjusted its flight direction and chased after it directly.

"Damn it, Lord Bronze Skull Beast, you must kill that human!"

"Go for it, Lord Bronze Skull Beast..."

Screams echoed throughout the mountainside.

The Bronze Skull Beast glanced around but didn't shout. Instead, it focused its attention on the Calamity Beast that was in the same spot as it.

Some of the Calamity Beast, seeing that the human had left, headed back to where they had been; others lingered for a moment but did not leave.

The Red Mane Beast hesitated for a moment, but also did not leave.

Nobody knows what might happen next. Being up there, closer to those high-ranking officials, is always safer.

As for the adults behind it, if they want it to go down, then it can just go down.

Having made up his mind, the Red Mane Beast sat down on the spot.

It didn't dare to lie down like it did in its previous spot, but instead just sat there.

His gaze was fixed on the Bronze Skull Beast lord chasing after him in the distance, occasionally turning back to see if the lord was approaching his position.

If so, then it needs to consider changing its location.

Fortunately, it did see the Fifth Tier Calamity Beast Lord come down and drive away the other Calamity Beast, but he did not come over to its side.

I don't know if it was just lucky that it found a spot where there were no adults nearby, or if the adults in the area felt the same way and thought it was safer to stay up there, so they didn't come down.

Regardless, the Red Mane Beast remained where it was.

After a while, it seemed to have noticed something and slightly raised its eyes.

One after another, the patrolling Calamity Beast began to fly away into the distance, seemingly searching for something.

"So, this wasn't just a simple attack after all?" the Red Mane Beast wondered.

Just now, it sensed that something was wrong. It had been there for two years without seeing a single human, so how come a human suddenly appeared today, and even reached the terrifying Sixth Tier!

However, none of this matters to it; it just needs to do its job well!

Thinking this, the Red Mane Beast waited quietly in place.

His gaze remained the same as before, glancing into the distance before scanning the surroundings again.

Suddenly.

"Boom--"

An indescribably loud explosion rang out.

The Red Mane Beast paused, its gaze instinctively turning to the side where the sound came from.

There was no explosion in sight, only one after another of the Calamity Beast, all looking in that direction.

Including the sound of XX just now, the location is probably...

With some uncertainty, the Red Mane Beast looked towards the mountain.

opposite?

An explosion happened across the street?!

Humans attacked?!

No, how come the attack happened directly on the mountain? Shouldn't it have started at the foot of the mountain first?

Puzzled, confused.

At this moment, not only it, but the vast majority of the Calamity Beast were filled with confusion.

One thought after another flashed through their minds.

Humans have infiltrated!

That Sixth Tier human just now deliberately lured Lord Bronze Skull Beast away!

Now, they are launching a surprise attack from across the Mountain of Truth!

Today's incident was... a diversionary tactic!

Seemingly having figured everything out, one after another, the Calamity Beast ' pupils contracted slightly.

They were at a loss for what to do.

After all, the Bronze Skull Beast, authorized by the Lion King, has already been lured away, so what about them...?

Suddenly, a shout came from above.

"Don't worry, Lord Bronze Skull Beast had already anticipated this situation. Before it left, it specifically instructed us to defend ourselves well against the attacking humans!"

"They must have been able to sneak in; there must not have been many of them!"

"Now, all you Calamity Beast, follow me immediately and deal with those humans!"

The screams echoed from near the mountaintop platform.

The Red Mane Beast looked over.

Above them, Lord Barbarian Bear, who enjoyed the deep trust of Lord Bronze Skull Beast, was raising his arms and shouting.

Without hesitation, one after another, the Calamity Beast began to rush along the side of the mountain towards the other side.

"Quickly, all the Calamity Beast, get over there immediately!"

The Barbarian Bear above urged them on rapidly.

Although it was said to be all the Calamity Beast, only the Fifth Tier and a small number of the Fourth Tier Calamity Beast that had gotten closer to the top due to the time difference could actually be heard.

However, that's enough. Just like Lord Barbarian Bear said, there can't be many humans who can sneak in!

That's right, I'm only at the Mid Fourth Tier...

After hesitating for a moment, the Red Mane Beast finally got up a little later and headed towards the opposite mountain.

However, it paused slightly after moving forward for a short while, its gaze returning to the spot where it had just been.

There was nothing there!

Is it an illusion?

The Red Mane Beast thought for a moment, then ignored it and quickly rushed towards the other side.
