"Abandon all baggage! Everyone, speed is the priority! Hurry!"
"Yes Yes!"
While leading the team to evacuate, the thoughtful Woodcorn also used some clever ideas.
He asked his team members to drive their horses in the direction where the Feiqi family left, and as for the Plateau Hearthfire Guild itself, all members walked to minimize any possible noise.
—(You shouldn't play tricks on me, Driggs.)
At this point, the two forces that had originally spent the night in the camp had gone their separate ways in the blink of an eye.
Even though the true entity responsible for the "huge flapping sound" hadn't yet made an appearance, these two powerful factions simply chose to flee without a fight.
All of this stems from the shocking power of "Black Moon Night".
Even if there was only a one in ten thousand chance, Driggs and Woodcorn were unwilling to take the risk.
However, although these two leaders made the most correct choices at the first time, the "disaster" that came from the darkness soon made their efforts in vain.
As a shrill wolf howl tore through the darkness, all the war horses of the Feiqi family cavalry were frightened out of control and fled in all directions.
As a result, the cavalry's originally orderly retreat formation was gone. Even though Driggs had excellent command skills, he couldn't make the horses obey orders like humans.
Out of desperation, the cavalrymen of the Feiqi family cavalry had to abandon their horses. At this time, a second wolf howl came from the darkness, and the sound was much louder than the first, which frightened these experienced cavalrymen.
Sixth level… no, seventh level? This was definitely the terrifying roar that only a seventh-level monster could emit!
Along with the howling of wolves, there was also the sound of huge flapping wings in the night sky.
It wasn't that the group led by Driggs was short-sighted, but they had never heard such a loud flapping sound before. And from common sense, the louder the sound, the larger the monster...
——(A flying wolf monster? I've never heard of such a monster in the Besent region!)
Driggs didn't want to fight in such a passive situation. Besides, he really didn't want to lose any more manpower of the Feiqi family cavalry.
In desperation, Driggs had no choice but to make a choice.
He handed Viviana over to the cavalry and ordered them to evacuate as quickly as possible. Then, Driggs rushed alone in the direction where the wolf howls came from.
As the head of the Feiqi family, he, Driggs Feiqi, will never let the Son of God who represents the future of the family die tonight!
——(Old partner, please lend me a helping hand...)
"Red Devil Arm Armor Akai!"
In a rare move, Driggs shouted loudly.
His shout was not only to inject energy into the starting equipment, but also to cheer himself up.
As the pair of arm armor weapons lit up red on Driggs's thick arms, he undoubtedly became the best bait in the dark night.
However, Driggs does not intend to deal with the upcoming unknown monster alone.
Even if he would be insulted and criticized by everyone in the future, he would still drag the Plateau Furnace Union into the water to increase his chances of survival.
·
As long as he can survive, it doesn’t matter even if the inheritance lasts for ten thousand years. This is Driggs Scarlet.
·
Woodcorn saw a red light coming from the darkness and was a little confused at first, not sure whether it was a new monster or something else.
Then, after recognizing that it was Lord Driggs of Scarlet, even a mature and steady second-in-command like Woodcorn couldn't help but curse.
"Driggs...you son of a pig!"
The incredible shock and the anger from the bottom of his heart made Woodcorn put aside his dignity for the first time in a long time.
He really didn't expect that a person like Driggs would disregard even the superficial cooperative relationship and be so shameless as to lead the monsters towards them!
At this point, Woodcorn was completely furious.
Unbearable, no need to endure.
The yakman Woodcorn, who had been patient for a long time, immediately ordered the entire team to change direction and advance at full speed towards the direction where the Feiqi family cavalry retreated!
"Don't worry about the noise anymore, just run as fast as you can!"
Woodcorn's current strategy is "If you have no shame, then I have no shame either." Isn't it just the "disaster" of the "night of the black moon"? If it really comes, the worst that can happen is that we will all die together!
Finally, in such a chaotic situation, the monster, whose voice was heard before its body was seen, finally flew from the night sky to the airspace above the two forces.
After hearing the whirring sound of wings like a strong wind coming from above their heads, the retreating soldiers and team members all subconsciously turned their heads to look at the night sky, wanting to see clearly what kind of monster was about to attack.
What they saw was an ugly monster they had never seen in their lives. Just one look at it would leave a shadow in their hearts, a catastrophic memory that would never be erased.
As another wolf howl sounded, this time the roar from the monster was no longer pure, but was imbued with magic.
The wide-area magical attack in the form of sonic waves instantly knocked those with weaker abilities to the ground, trapping them in an abnormal state of "fear" that rendered them unable to move.
10.172 - Stitched Monster
——(Is this… the ‘ghostly howl’ of ‘Crying Wolf on a Snowy Night’?)
Looking at the members of the Plateau Hearthfire Guild who were kneeling on the ground in fear, Lord Scarlet Driggs remembered that he had seen a similar skill in the monster record file.
It is true that the "Crying Wolf on a Snowy Night" is a monster active in the Besent area, but apart from the fact that this guy is "only" at level five in strength, the file does not mention that this guy can fly at all?
And Driggs now heard with absolute certainty the chilling wolf howl coming from the sky above.
In addition, these members of the Plateau Hearthfire Guild could not even withstand the roar attacks of the fifth-level monsters. Driggs now felt that it was too unrealistic to rely on them to delay the monsters or even lure them away.
Among the people in the Plateau Furnace Union, the only one who is useful is the vice president, the yakman Woodcorn.
"Let me see how ugly you look! You hiding in the dark!"
Driggs roared and used his skill "Flame Fist: Flying Fist" in the direction of the monster's roar.
The leaping flames illuminated the night sky, allowing everyone present to clearly see the attacker's appearance.
This gigantic creature hovering in the night sky, even calling it a "monster" would be a compliment.
No one present had ever seen such an ugly and terrifying creature - if this creature was really still alive.
·
By the light of the fire, Driggs clearly saw that the monster in the night sky did have the head of the "Wolf Who Cried on the Snowy Night"... but it was only one head of the "Wolf Who Cried on the Snowy Night".
Connected to the head of the Weeping Wolf on a Snowy Night is a body that looks like a bear monster.
If Driggs was not mistaken, it should be the body of the "Subterranean Drilling Claw Snow Bear", because there was a signature scar-like blood mark on its chest.
Every adult male "Drilling Claw Snow Bear" will actively seek out the hot underground magma to leave a mark on its chest.
However, the body of the "Diving Snow Bear" is not the end of this monster's weirdness, but the beginning.
On the neck of this body, right next to the position of the "Crying Wolf on the Snowy Night", there is another head, which is the head of the "Whirlpool Wind Feather Giant Eagle".
Not long ago, Driggs had just witnessed Viviana kill a vortex wind-feathered giant eagle with her own eyes.
[Note: For details, please refer to chapter "10.89 - A Girl's Growth"]
——(Could it be that the wolf's howl attack just now was mixed with the ultrasonic attack of the Whirlwind Feather Giant Eagle? ...No wonder it was so powerful!)
In terms of strength alone, the Whirlwind Feather Giant Eagle is only at the fourth level, but if it is combined with the fifth-level Snow Night Crying Wolf, the compatible sonic attacks can greatly enhance each other, and this double attack can even reach a level close to the sixth level.
Just seeing this was enough to surprise Driggs.
He had never seen or heard of such a randomly assembled collection of monsters before.
However, as I said just now, this is far from the end, it is just the beginning.
·
The body of the "Diving Snow Bear" is quite heavy, and generally speaking, it is impossible for it to fly in the sky, unless...
Unless, on its back, it has the wings of both the "Phantom Giant Ghost Bat" and the "Whirlpool Wind Feather Giant Eagle".
These two pairs of wings, with completely different composition and properties, together created the terrifying flapping sound tonight and allowed the monster to fly here under the cover of darkness.
In fact, after seeing the monster clearly, Driggs had discovered that the opponent's flying speed was not fast. Its body seemed to be randomly pieced together and did not have the structure to fly at high speed.
However, air supremacy is always air supremacy, and creatures that can fly naturally have an absolute advantage over creatures that can only run on the ground.
Just like Driggs and the others now, even if they can run faster than the monsters, it is still impossible to escape from the monsters' attack range.
What's more, Driggs had already seen that the body of the monster, the "Subsurface Drilling Claw Snow Bear", was connected to four thick animal legs - those were the legs of the "Ice Flame Winged Claw Leopard" that could run at a speed of more than 200 kilometers per hour.
Then, continuing to look back along the torso of the "Diving Claw Snow Bear", Driggs could also see the tail of the "Ice Thorn White Tail Scorpion".
This tail that can be forked and has a metal barb at the tip belongs to the "Ice Thorn White Tailed Scorpion".
So far, Driggs has seen parts of six kinds of demons on this monster, and these are only the visible parts.
If you have the time and opportunity to observe carefully, you will find that this monster definitely contains components of other demons.
Looking at the slowly descending monster, Driggs believed that it was definitely not a normal monster. No kind of monster would grow into such a randomly stitched monster.
However, through magical perception, Driggs found no signs that the monster was a puppet or some other magical product.
The source of this guy's magic power is itself and is not controlled by any external force.
——(Could this be… the legendary 'Monster of the Black Moon'?)
Driggs couldn't help but shudder, because even the werewolf clan, who were on high alert, were no match for the "Black Moon Night Monster", not to mention their current scattered troops.
However, based on his memory, Driggs didn't think this guy would be the "Monster of the Black Moon Night".
In the records of various files, there is no mention that the "Monster of the Black Moon Night" has the characteristics of multiple types of monsters stitched together.
If he had to find an ascription for this monster, Driggs would rather believe that this guy was created by the "Dark Rabbit Clan".
Driggs had felt a magical aura similar to that of this monster on the two strange Snow Mantises before.
"Mr. Vice President, do you have any idea about this guy?"
Before the monster landed, Driggs asked Woodcorn, who was not far away.
Woodcorn, who was always polite and courteous, ignored Driggs' questions this time and focused on organizing the union members to cheer up and escape.
Driggs, who had rich social experience, immediately realized that it was his despicable behavior that angered the yak man.
In this case, he should take action to gain a chance for "temporary reconciliation".
——(Akai, attack mode.)
Driggs injected a large amount of magic power into the "Red Demon Arm Guard Akai", and then the magic power quickly materialized into a pair of scarlet claws.
The huge claws extending from the red devil's arm armor made Driggs look like a four-armed Shura.
He observed the landing trajectory of the stitched monster in the night sky, jumped up in advance, and then launched a rapid slash in the direction of the monster.
——(Red Devil Hundred Fierce Slash!)
With a roar, Driggs' claws drew nearly a hundred intersecting tracks in the air, each track leaving a fiery red afterimage in the night sky.
These afterimages are not only visual remnants, but also real attack paths. Each trajectory is engraved with a large amount of magic power and hissing!
In the blink of an eye, these scarlet claws made of magic power had intertwined into a huge net in the air. When the stitched monster approached, the scarlet net suddenly burst!
10.173 - Plastic Front
——(Let me see what you are capable of.)
Driggs had no idea that this move, "Red Devil Hundred Fierce Slashes," would be able to decide the outcome in one blow.
After making the move, he immediately entered a defensive and evasive posture and directly left the front battlefield.
However, the swooping stitched monster did not disappoint Driggs at all.
As the guy crashed into the scarlet slashing net, a layer of gray-white earth-like substance emerged from his entire body. Then he head-on withstood the oncoming scarlet slash and broke through Driggs's attack in one fell swoop.
—(Permafrost armor…?)
——(Is this the move of 『Diving Claw Snow Bear』?)
——(Could it be possible that this guy can use all the skills of the stitched monsters?)
Driggs was quite shocked. If this stitched monster could really use so many skills, the next battle would become extremely difficult.
