"Since I'll die if I don't fight, and I might die if I fight, then I'll naturally choose to give it a try. It's definitely a win-win situation... right?"
Moreover, his absolutely rational words successfully convinced himself, and he finally made up his mind to force his way out.
After overcoming his fear with reason, Tetodav returned to his best condition. Now he not only had to try to escape, but also had to take the little black water dragon with him.
But don't get me wrong, he is not a person with a sharp tongue but a soft heart who cannot let go of the little black water dragon. In fact, it is quite the opposite. Tetodaf's consideration is that when there is no other way, he can still catch the little black water dragon to serve as a shield for himself, so that this monster that he has invested a lot of effort and money in can play its last bit of value.
"Listen up, Xiao Hei, we're going to break out now, you better follow closely!"
As soon as Tetodaff gave the order, they started to act immediately. The little black water dragon didn't know whether it understood it or not, but it still followed Tetodaff and started to trot quickly.
·
——(Noise Barrier)
Under the body of the Caesar King Viper, Tetodaf skillfully used the skills of his cloak to cover himself.
His current plan was very simple. He would first try to move as far under the body of the King Viper as possible, the closer to the edge of the "Snake Venom Rain" the better. Then, when there was no way to go, he would use all his speed to break out in one breath.
However, Tetodav's understanding of snake monsters was obviously not comprehensive enough. Compared to "hearing", the King Adder was better at "vision", and it even had "thermal imaging vision" that could penetrate objects that blocked it to a certain extent.
Therefore, even though Tetodaf covered up the sound, the King Viper quickly found the two uninvited guests hiding under its body.
When Tetodav and the little black water dragon were still running, the Caesar King Viper suddenly slammed its raised body to the ground, almost killing Tetodav and the little black water dragon.
Tetodaf immediately realized that something was wrong. He knew that his and the little black water dragon's position had been exposed, so he simply picked up the little black water dragon and activated his skill "Sonic Barrier", trying to rely on this sonic shield to force his way out.
Upon seeing this, the King Viper immediately changed its strategy and twisted and rolled the hill as if it were sand, causing Tetodaf and the little black water dragon to stagger and fall back, making it difficult for them to run at full speed.
Immediately afterwards, it suddenly moved its body in a large scale, which greatly affected the plan of Tetodav and his men. They could no longer hide under the body of the King Viper.
Out of desperation, Tetodav and the little black water dragon could only take off early with the "sonic barrier" in an effort to escape from the enemy's snake venom rain. However, the corrosiveness of the King Viper's venom was far beyond Tetodav's expectations, and it dissolved the "sonic barrier" in just a dozen seconds.
——(It has come to this... I won't give up easily!)
Tetodav knew that he had no way out. Everything between him and the little black water dragon was staked on these few minutes!
Therefore, instead of grabbing the little black water dragon to use as a shield, Tetodaf chose a temporary win-win approach - he flapped his wings violently and completed the next skill: Whirling Sharp Sound Tornado before the "Sonic Barrier" broke!
As the tornado, which continued to emit high-frequency sounds, rose over the hills, all the venomous rainstorms around the top of the tornado were blown away and then sucked into the base of the tornado, forming a visible cycle.
Tetodaf and the little black water dragon took advantage of the tornado's influence on the air flow to successfully avoid the falling snake venom rainstorm, and then escaped from the falling range of the snake venom rainstorm together with the tornado!
——(Success!)
——(I escaped!)
Tetodav was extremely happy. The feeling of surviving a disaster made him feel the excitement for the first time in a long time.
However, Tetodav didn't know at that moment that what he had just experienced was only the tip of the iceberg. The real "excitement" was actually still to come...
9.239 - The Shadow That Silently Approaches
Kingdom of West, territory of the Green Lizard Family, around the town of Mel.
Dark clouds were gathering over the broken hilly area, turning the clear blue sky that should have been sunny into a gray one.
The Dove-Winged Man, Tetodaf, was not one to be blindly arrogant, so he made no connection between the dark clouds gathering in the sky and the skill he had just used, "Whirling Sharp Sound Tornado."
However, if we analyze it rigorously, the tornado released by Tetodav does have some impact on the weather - at least it speeds up the arrival of cloudy days.
Whether it is cloudy or sunny, the change in weather has no effect on Tetodaf, but for cold-blooded monsters like the King Viper, without the heat brought by sunlight, they will not be as energetic when moving.
After Tetodaf and the Little Black Water Dragon successfully escaped the attack range of "Snake Venom Rain", the King Viper took the initiative to end the skill early, as if to reduce the waste of magic power.
Tetodav regarded the behavior of the King Viper as a negative signal. He felt that the King Viper might give up chasing them - after all, he and Xiao Hei had already flown a hundred meters into the air, completely out of the King Viper's attack range.
“Ah~ah!”
At this time, not far from Tetodaf, the hovering little black water dragon howled. This "little" guy who was causing trouble looked like he wanted Tetodaf to go down with him to fight the King Viper for another three hundred rounds.
"Stop yelling! What are you yelling for? If you yell again, I'll take you back to make soup!"
Tetodaff pretended to be angry and roared at the little black water dragon. Then the noisy guy shut up temporarily, leaving Tetodaff in peace.
·
For Tetodav, the battle has now come to an end, and his goal of rescuing the little black water dragon has been achieved, so there is no problem in evacuating the battlefield.
However, after returning to a safe situation, Tetodaf remembered his original motive for action. He was originally tracking the "invader", but his plan was disrupted by the King Viper on the way.
So, should we continue to track down the intruder who sneaked into the secret base? Tetodaf took out the "Mark Sower" from the package at his waist and decided to check the intruder's location before making a decision.
——(Could it be possible that he has already run away in just this short while...?)
Tetodav nervously activated the magic device, and what surprised him was that the fluorescent green light emitted from the device actually shone directly on the head of the Caesar King Viper!
"what?"
The unexpected result made Tetodav difficult to understand for a moment. How could the enemy that sneaked into the secret base be this King Viper?
Given the size of this King Viper, let alone entering the secret room, it can't even get through the door of the secret base?
——(Could it be that this guy was marked by the equipment when he destroyed the hill?)
After much thought, Tetodafu concluded that this was the only possibility. After all, the secret base had been destroyed, so it was normal for the body of the King Viper to run over it.
However, this result was not what Tetodav wanted to see, because he had previously speculated that there must be a mastermind behind the King Viper who was manipulating the overall situation. If the King Viper was the only one that was sown with the "mark", then the clues he was tracking would be completely cut off.
——(Damn it, was I tricked?)
Tetodav was extremely angry. Not only did he fail to catch the real culprit, but he was also almost crushed to death by the King Horned Viper.
As the chief leader of the secret intelligence organization, Zhaoye Liuque, he has completely lost the intelligence war!
——(No, we can’t evacuate like this.)
Like a conditioned reflex, this thought came into Tetodaf's mind.
It was clear that he was cowardly and wanted to run away not long ago, but now, in order to live up to his identity, he decided to stay a little longer before leaving.
·
The core premise of Tetodav staying in the air was that he believed he and the little black water dragon were safe.
Now a hundred meters in the air, he has regained his usual composure and no longer needs self-suggestion to stay rational.
From Tetodav's perspective, the King Adder on the ground was like a lizard trapped in a cage. It no longer posed any threat. What he should really pay attention to now was the "mastermind" who might still be hiding nearby.
However, without any clues, it would not be easy for Tetodav to find the real enemy, so he chose to start collecting intelligence on the King Viper at the same time.
——(Once I have all the information about you, I will peel off your skin and use it to make armor for everyone...)
Tetodav's hatred for the King Adder can be seen from his psychological activities. The destroyed secret base really condensed too much of his efforts.
Body length, shape, scale color and pattern... Tetodav began to observe and record all the information about the King Viper in great detail.
Relying on the excellent eyesight unique to the Dove-Winged people, he could see the King Viper clearly even from a hundred meters in the air.
However, just as Tetodav was concentrating on collecting intelligence, a dark shadow hiding on the ground had already aimed at the winged man hovering in the air, and then "swish, swish, swish!" shot three cold arrows in a row!
"Aw! Aww!"
The little black water dragon sensed the impending danger before Tetodaf did. It directly knocked Tetodaf away from his current position, helping him avoid the three powerful arrows.
Tetodav reacted a little late, but he immediately got into the state and looked in the direction of the arrow, trying to find out where the attacker was hiding.
——(Tsk, you run pretty fast...!)
Tetodav searched briefly with his eyes but found nothing, so he changed his mind and activated the "Mark Sower" again, wanting to see if the guy who attacked him was related to the "intruder".
However, the result displayed by the "Mark Sower" once again disappointed Tetodaf. The device still only emitted a green light, and it was still shot at the Caesar King Viper.
Just when Tetodav was feeling discouraged, a sudden flash of inspiration came to his mind and he had a different idea.
——(No, wait… I think I understand…!)
Tetodav suddenly thought that if he discarded the preconceived notion that "the invaders' purpose was to steal intelligence from the secret base", the current situation was actually easy to explain!
The latest logic that Tetodav has come up with is that the invasion and destruction of the secret base are actually just a cover for the enemy. The enemy's stage goal is to lure himself out by invading and destroying the secret base!
——(Killing Teruya Ryuque's chief master, Tetodaf... This is the enemy's true goal!)
9.240 - Little Black Water Dragon
——(Damn it! Why did I only think of this now!!!)
As he thought of this possibility, Tetodaf began to flap his wings faster.
The enemy is in the dark, and he is in the light. No matter whether the enemy has the ability to kill him or not, Tetodaf has to run away first.
Be it intelligence or "that secret medicine", for Tetodav, nothing is more important than his life. As long as he keeps his life, he can get back what he has lost sooner or later.
"Xiao Hei! Go kill the guy shooting arrows on the ground!"
At this critical moment, Tetodav no longer cared about the effort he spent on the little black water dragon. Even if the little black water dragon could only buy him one minute, Tetodav felt it was worth it!
The little black water dragon, not knowing that it had been abandoned, excitedly shouted "Ah~!" and accepted the task. It had wanted to fight for a long time, but had been restrained by its master.
Now, although the master's order was not to kill the giant snake monster, being able to find another opponent to fight was enough for the little black water dragon to vent its strong desire for fighting.
As to why the little black water dragon was so eager to fight, the reason started a few hours ago.
At that time, the little black water dragon who was guarding the secret base was frightened by the mysterious boy who suddenly broke in, and then he fainted without any power to resist.
At that time, the little black water dragon thought that his life as a dragon was over, but he didn't expect that he would still be able to open his eyes again and see the mysterious boy riding on a giant snake monster and escaping from the secret base!
The little black water dragon was so furious at that time. It thought that the mysterious boy must have used some despicable means to make it faint, and the other party was now in a hurry to run away, which must be because he was not strong enough.
So, the little black water dragon immediately stood up and chased after them. It wanted to capture both the man and the snake, and then take credit for it to its master!
Since the little black water dragon had the advantage of flying, it quickly caught up with the mysterious boy and the giant snake monster. However, for some reason, the mysterious boy disappeared inexplicably. Fortunately, the giant snake monster did not have the ability to disappear out of thin air, so the little black water dragon always had a target that it could see and catch.
Because it was morning, the little black water dragon could not exert its full strength, but it still put in 120% of its energy to attack the giant snake monster, and did not dare to attack the giant snake monster because of the difference in size.
It should be added here that the bravery of the Little Black Water Dragon is not only due to its own reckless character, but also because to dragon-like monsters like the Little Black Water Dragon, all snake-like monsters are inferior to them.
This feeling is like when white people in the world see black people, they will develop a blind sense of superiority as soon as they meet, not realizing that the current version is no longer the era of serfdom.
However, the little black water dragon did not suffer a defeat because of its arrogance. In fact, it was quite the opposite. As soon as it caught up with the giant snake monster, it beat the other party so badly that it had "no" ability to fight back.
Under the fierce attack of the little black water dragon, the giant snake monster "fled" all the way. The little black water dragon naturally would not stop there, but must kill the giant snake monster to take credit for it to his master.
Unknowingly, the little black water dragon had been chasing for several hours, but unfortunately it was unable to stop the giant snake monster from escaping... When the little black water dragon was a little exhausted, the giant snake monster suddenly burrowed into the ground and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
·
Looking at the big hole left on the ground by the giant snake monster, the little black water dragon was dumbfounded.
If it wanted to continue chasing the enemy, it had no choice but to give up flying and burrow into the ground. However, for a dignified dragon-like monster like it to burrow into a hole dug by a snake, this was as shameful as asking a human to burrow into a dog hole.
The little black water dragon was so conflicted. After hesitating for a long time, he still couldn't let go of his identity as a dragon-like monster. He could only circle back and forth above the cave, observing the movements on the surface, waiting for the giant snake monster to come out of the ground again.
As a result, after waiting for a while, the giant snake monster really rushed out from the ground, making the little black water dragon overjoyed - until it discovered that its master seemed to have come nearby and was being attacked by the giant snake monster.
Seeing this, the little black water dragon was furious. Not only did this low-level snake monster not dare to fight with him, it even attacked his master. He deserved to die eight hundred times!
In a rage, the little black water dragon rushed towards the giant snake monster at its highest speed, determined to kill it with its sharp claws!
[Note: This plot can be rewatched from the second half of "9.236 - The Underground Serpent" to "9.238 - No Choice" to experience Tetodaf's perspective.]
However, something happened that the little black water dragon could not understand. In a fit of rage, it actually... was only angry for a moment. The angry dragon claws could not even cut the scales of the giant snake monster, let alone hurt the flesh inside.
The unconvinced little black water dragon thought it was a problem with its posture, so it launched another attack. However, this time, no matter how hard it tried, the giant snake monster was completely indifferent and did not regard the little black water dragon as a threat at all, not even as important as annoying flies and mosquitoes.
The little black water dragon was defeated. Not only did it fail to take credit to its master, but when its master was attacked by the enemy, it was also unable to deal an effective blow to the enemy.
It was not until this moment that the little black water dragon vaguely "realized" that it seemed to have fallen into a trap. It thought... the giant snake monster had set a trap, and would consume a lot of its physical strength by escaping, and then wait until the little black water dragon's strength was exhausted before running out to act tyrannically.
So, the little black water dragon naturally came up with a "genius" idea. It thought that as long as it took a rest and recovered its strength, it would be able to beat the damn giant snake monster again!
Then, the little black water dragon put his "genius" idea into action. He first obeyed his master's words and "ran away" together, waiting for the opportunity to tire himself out. When his strength recovered a little, he immediately started "howling" and wanted to beat the giant snake monster again.
Unfortunately, the owner didn't seem to know how powerful the little black water dragon was and only wanted to escape. It was not until now that he finally gave the little black water dragon a combat order, allowing it to vent its anger.
—(Ahhhh… Let me find out who was the unlucky guy who shot the arrow just now… I’ll do my best to free you without any pain!)
The little black water dragon swooped down to low altitude with murderous intent, ready to show off its skills.
Then, a black figure flashed by, and the little black water dragon was cut into two pieces and died without any pain.
