Tetodav hid the device in a room in his secret base with the intention of using it to mark intruders.

Now, Tetodav injected magic power into the "Mark Sower", switching it from "Sowing Mode" to "Sensing Mode".

No matter how far the target carrying the "magic mark" runs, as long as the other party is still in this Prison Star World, the "Mark Sower" will send directional prompts, allowing Tetodaf to easily find the invader.

——(Alright, let me see if someone has secretly attracted some monsters to cause trouble...)

Tetodav switched the working mode of the "Mark Sower" with great anticipation. Then, a green ray of light shot out from the crystal on the top of the "Mark Sower" and pointed to the north side of the hill.

Although the green light only lasted for more than ten meters before dissipating in the air, for Tetodaf, it was enough as long as it pointed out the direction.

——(It had only been four or five hours since the alarm went off; the intruders probably hadn't gotten very far.)

Tetodav sneered with satisfaction, because when it came to infiltration and espionage work, he was a professional.

This intruder, whose name is unknown, actually dared to show off his skills in front of him, the chief hall master of Zhaoye Liuque. He was really courting death and ended up on the scythe of the god of death.

·

The successful activation of the secret magic device "Mark Sower" directly solved the two problems that Tetodaf had just encountered.

The giant snake monster would attack the hills, it must be because someone is secretly guiding it. As for whether the hills are safe now, the answer is that it is still dangerous.

However, even if there is still danger, Tetodav is willing to take the risk. For all intelligence work, "time" is the eternal lifeline.

Before setting off again, Tetodav quickly checked the damage inside the secret base. Due to the chaos at the scene, he could only simply check the most important things first - for example, whether the "certain secret medicine" he had collaborated with the "Dark Rabbit Clan" was still safe and sound in the storage box in the secret compartment of the wall.

Fortunately, what Tetodav worried about did not happen, and overall, it seemed that nothing he kept in the secret base was missing.

In this way, Tetodav can focus on tracking the invader for the time being.

——(Wait…where did Hei go?)

After his tense nerves relaxed a little, Tetodaf suddenly remembered the little black water dragon he had tamed.

Logically speaking, the little black water dragon should be in the secret base at this time, but Tetodav searched the entire secret base and could not find any trace of this guy.

——(Could it be that he went to chase the monster?)

After thinking about it, Tetodafu felt that this was the only possibility, and his mood, which had been slightly relaxed, suddenly became tense again.

If someone didn't know Tetodaf well, they might think he was very loyal and righteous, and that he actually valued a tamed monster so much.

But in reality, what Tetodaf was concerned about was the cost of "re-taming a small black water dragon."

The little black water dragon itself is a very rare monster. It is not easy to catch it alive, and taming it is even more time-consuming and laborious. It is simply not something that ordinary people can afford.

That's why Tetodaf was so worried about the life and death of the little black water dragon. This monster was a valuable asset to him.

·

Following the green light emitted by the secret magical device, Tetodaf ran all the way.

He guessed that the little black water dragon must have chased the giant snake monster or the invader, so it was not in the secret base.

However, it is already daytime, and the little black water dragon, which is good at moving in the dark, will lose a lot of strength once it comes under the sun.

The little black water dragon, which was not good at frontal combat, was now in an unfavorable situation, which really made Tetodaf anxious!

As he ran, Tetodaf gradually felt that something was wrong with the surrounding environment - more and more trees fell down, and the "snake trails" on the ground became more and more clearly visible.

——(Damn it, is the intruder still with the giant snake monster?!)

Tetodav immediately slowed down his pace. He had not expected to fight with a giant snake monster.

·

Tetodav originally thought that the giant snake monster was just attracted by the invaders in some way, but if the invaders are still acting with the giant snake monster until now, then he will have to change his speculation and action plan.

——(Let’s continue to scout a little further. If things don’t go well, we’ll retreat. There are plenty of people in the organization who can die for me anyway.)

Tetodaff put on his hood and activated the cloak's skill, "Sound Barrier," silencing all the noise he made while running.

However, just when Tetodav thought he was still safe, the ground around him suddenly shook. Then, the ground under his feet suddenly cracked, and a bloody mouth suddenly jumped out from the ground without warning, and it seemed that it was about to swallow Tetodav and the soil together!

——(Jiu Yu explodes!)

At the critical moment of life and death, the battlefield-hardened Tetodav reacted at the last moment, using the reaction force of a large number of flying feathers to lift himself into the air. Then he flapped his wings and flew high, escaping from the swallowing range of the bloody mouth in one breath!

Tetodaf flew into the air, still in shock. He looked down and was shocked to find that the giant snake monster he had always feared had appeared below him and was rising up, intending to continue chasing Tetodaf!

Seeing this, Tetodav quickly flapped his wings to climb higher. The ground was now covered in dust and in a chaotic situation. He couldn't see how large the range of the giant snake monster's attack was, so he could only fly as high as he could.

In addition, Tetodaf also noticed that his previous skill "Feather Explosion" did not cause any damage to the giant snake monster. Logically, those knife-sharp feathers should have caused a lot of wounds in the giant snake's mouth.

——(What the hell is this monster?!)

Tetodav's heart was pounding with fear. It had been a long time since he had faced such a strong enemy!

Fortunately, due to his advantage of flying ability, Tetodaf temporarily left the danger zone and was able to wait safely in the air until the dust on the ground settled, and then see clearly what the giant snake monster that sprang out from the ground was.

—(A triangular head… horny horns… pitch-black scales… Could this thing… could it be…?)

With his extensive knowledge of monsters, Tetodav identified the monster's identity, but found it unbelievable.

How could a dangerous fifth-level monster, the "King of Disaster Horned Vipers," appear near the remote town of Mel, located behind the battle lines?!

9.237 - Forced to Fight

Tetodav's heart was shaken for the umpteenth time today.

In just a few hours, things that rarely happen in several years happened before his eyes one after another, making his senses almost numb.

The "King Viper of Disaster", a dangerous monster with a strength of up to level five, usually only appears near the front lines of war. Once it appears in a rear-line country like the Kingdom of West, it will at least cause a disaster that can destroy a small town.

According to the subjugation guidelines given by the Quest Guild, the King Viper of Disaster requires at least six combat professionals of the same rank to work together to safely subjugate it. If it is a sixth-rank combat professional like Tetodaf, it is best to gather a team of four to avoid the risk of heavy casualties.

In other words, although Tetodaff is one level higher in strength than the King Viper, he is still not strong enough to defeat it without risk... and there is an even more unfavorable factor. Tetodaff is not good at head-on combat. If he has to fight head-on, then his actual strength can only be reduced to level five for judgment.

Under such objectively unfavorable conditions, Tetodav, who was flying in the air, was already preparing to retreat. Anyway, he had no reason to fight with this King Viper.

However, just when Tetodav thought so, an agile black figure appeared near the King Viper and was rushing towards the other's head recklessly!

——(Xiao... Xiao Hei?!)

Tetodaf was stunned. The black figure who was fighting desperately was the little black water dragon he had been looking for all the way.

However, how could the little black water dragon, at a mere level three, possibly be a match for the horned viper? This was like an ant trying to shake a tree or a mantis trying to stop a chariot!

"Tsk, damn it!"

Tetodav subconsciously wanted to swoop down and take away this brainless black water dragon, but the rationality in his mind immediately stopped him.

If you dive down towards the King Viper, if you are unlucky, you may not have the chance to take off again.

A very realistic question, a choice between two options, was placed before Tetodav.

Should he take a gamble and rush down to rescue the little black water dragon, or refuse the risk and save himself?

To be honest, if Tetodav's own life and the little black water dragon were placed on both ends of the scale, Tetodav would choose himself without hesitation, but now it has not reached such an absolute situation, because he knows that it is possible for him to rescue the little black water dragon and save his own life.

And could the "emotion" that makes him unwilling to give up this possibility be his feelings for the little black water dragon?

Whether the answer is yes or no, Tetodav will never admit it, at least verbally.

——(You stupid guy, even if you want to help me catch the intruder, you should first know who you are...just wait and see how I deal with you!)

Tetodav made up his mind, gritted his teeth and dived down!

He had one and only one goal, which was to get the little black water dragon out of the attack range of the King Viper and then escape quickly!

·

·

On the hilly ground, the little black water dragon struggled hard, dancing its sharp claws, trying to use the impact of the accelerated flight to tear through the scales of the disaster-horned viper.

However, it overestimated its own impact force and underestimated the defense of the King Cobra. Its proud sharp claws grabbed the scales of the King Cobra, but it was as useless as humans using fingernails to scratch granite. It only left a very shallow gray-white claw mark.

After receiving this attack, the King Viper immediately rolled over on the spot. Its huge body immediately raised the dust that had just dissipated again, and left the little black water dragon with nowhere to hide!

Seeing that the little black water dragon was about to be crushed by the huge body of the disaster-horned viper, the lightning-fast dove-winged man Tetodaf arrived at the side of the little black water dragon in time, then flapped his wings and used the skill "Sonic Barrier"!

The barrier formed by the magic sound barely withstood the impact of the King Viper's body. Taking this opportunity, Tetodaf kicked the little black water dragon hard in the butt, forcing this troublesome guy to quickly follow him in the evacuation.

However, the attack range of the King Viper was too large. Before Tetodaf could run away with the little black water dragon, the giant snake monster had already used its next move.

As the King Viper raised its head high, a large amount of purple-black venom was sprayed into the air and then fell vertically.

As soon as the knowledgeable Tetodav saw this raised hand, he knew that this was one of the signature skills of the King Viper: Snake Venom Rain.

"Xiao Hei! Come hide down there with me!"

Tetodaf's face turned pale in an instant. If the little black water dragon had not been close enough to him, he would have abandoned the stupid dragon and ran away.

As far as Tetodav knew, the King Viper's "Venom Rain" move could never be hit, especially when he didn't have an "advanced antidote" on him.

Anyone hit by the falling snake venom solution will be poisoned unless they have skills such as "Poison Resistance".

The venom of the King Adder is very difficult to deal with. Even if the victim is only exposed to a low dose of the venom, the venom will slowly increase in toxicity in the victim's body over time, usually reaching its highest concentration within an hour, and then suffocating the victim to death.

Tetodav also knew that in addition to eventually causing suffocation and death, the poison would also make the victim's movements slower and slower as the toxicity gradually increased, and then the victim would be attached to more venom in the snake venom rain.

Therefore, you really cannot touch even a drop of the venom of the King Viper, otherwise you will die.

At the moment, Tetodav had no way to escape from the snake venom rain in the first place. If he wanted to avoid the falling venom, he only had one way left:

Get under the body of the Caesar's Horned Viper.

·

The King Viper is neither a fixed eaves nor a big tree that can be used to shelter from the rain. If you want to "borrow" this guy's huge body to block the snake venom rainstorm, you will inevitably have to take risks.

After seeing that the little black water dragon had caught up with him, Tetodaf immediately activated the cloak's skill "Sound Barrier" to reduce his presence as much as possible to avoid being crushed to death by the King Viper.

—(I don’t know how good the King Adder’s hearing is… Whatever, let’s try our best!)

Not long after Tetodav and the little black water dragon hid under the body of the King Viper, a torrential downpour of horn viper venom came pouring down.

Looking at the venom that was constantly corroding the ground and making a terrifying "sizzling" sound, Tetodav was extremely confused.

——(I’m not going to die here today, am I?)

9.238 - No Choice

Although the Dove Winged Man, Tetodaf, was the chief hall master of the secret intelligence organization, Zhaoye Liuque, and also a sixth-order, level 270 combat professional, Yinyu Yijian, when facing the King Viper of Disaster, which was one level lower than him, he did not have the courage to fight for even a few rounds.

It is true that except for situations where fighting is unavoidable, most combat professionals with normal minds will not take the initiative to challenge monsters of the same level as themselves. A step back, even monsters of a lower level will generally not be provoked easily.

However, if they were in the situation that Tetodaf is currently in, most combat professionals would still dare to fight for a chance, but Tetodaf does not have this courage because he is a "coward" who only dares to fight when he is sure of victory.

"Avoid all unnecessary risks" is the creed that Tetodaf has always adhered to. Based on this creed, Tetodaf is extremely disgusted with all emergencies - because emergencies are inevitably related to "uncertainty", and as long as there are uncertain factors, Tetodaf will not be able to guarantee his own safety.

Therefore, even if he had to fight, Tetodav would investigate the enemy thoroughly in advance, formulate a winning strategy, and "win" the battle before it even started.

On the other hand, sudden encounters like the current one are exactly the type of battle that Tetodav extremely hates, because there are too many unknown factors.

At this moment, Tetodaf, who could only hide under the body of the King Viper to avoid the torrential rain of snake venom, was pushed to the brink of collapse due to the psychological pressure.

Although he had a certain understanding of the King Viper, it was not yet 100% complete;

Although he wanted to escape, he was helplessly trapped in an unsafe place;

For Tetodav, all the circumstances at this time pointed to the same conclusion, that is, if he wanted to survive, he had to take the risk.

·

"Ow...Ow..."

Beside Tetodaf, the little black water dragon was making a low roar.

This guy, who is not sure whether he is brave or stupid, still wants to compete with the King Adder until now, and uses his roar to urge Tetodaf to fight together.

"Shut up, you useless thing...!"

Tetodav kicked the little black water dragon angrily. If he hadn't saved this guy, he wouldn't have ended up in this situation.

Now, it is only a matter of time before Tetodaf and the little black water dragon are discovered by the King Viper. Once discovered by the other party, they will both die in this ongoing "snake venom rain".

Tetodav knew that he had no choice but to fight now. In order to restore his tense and stiff body to a state of free movement, he began to talk to himself as usual.

"Tetodaf, put away all those unnecessary emotions. You know you have no choice now."

Miraculously, as soon as he started to give himself the suggestion, Tetodav's slightly trembling body stopped shaking immediately.
