nThe Red Spider Knight chuckled.

nLevi was relaxed and was ready to shoot at any moment.

nAfter the poison was applied, the two quietly hid beside the Armor-Breaking

nCrossbow. The bushes next to them covered their figures. Levi could hear the

nRed Spider Knight’s heartbeat. She seemed a little nervous and not as indifferent as she looked.

nAt the same time, a roar that sounded like a tyrannosaurus echoed throughout the valley.

nLevi and the Red Spider Knight immediately became alert.

nIn the dense forest in the distance, the trees were quivering. Countless birds were frightened, and all kinds of wild beasts, whether docile herbivores or fierce carnivores, fled wildly after this roar.

nAs the booming voice resounded, all the living beings on the earth began to tremble in fear.

nEven Levi, who was an official knight, felt a little uneasy.

nThis was the might of an Earthly Dragon Beast!

nThe king of all beasts on this continent!

nGraff and his teammates were running for their lives in the dense forest. Behind them, an angry giant beast charged forward, knocking away the trees and boulders.

nIt was a giant-scaled beast that was comparable to a tyrannosaurus. It had a height of over three meters and a length of over ten meters.

nIts entire body was covered with scales similar to a crocodile’s. Every muscle movement caused the scales on its body to emit a metallic sound.

nIts four limbs were thick and powerful, just like the Sumerian rhinoceros. It was covered in layers of wrinkled skin, just like a knight’s heavy armor.

nThe Green Falcon Knight had already given up on his horse because he realized that even though the Earthly Dragon Beast did not run fast, its short-term explosive speed was not something his inferior horse could compare to.

nFortunately, he cultivated the Azure Falcon shallow breathing technique.

nThe Green Falcon was a legendary divine bird that soared in the sky. With a

nflap of its wings, it could travel hundreds of miles!

nThe Green Falcon Knight was now like a diving gyrfalcon. He swept his arms backward in a running posture similar to Naruto. The Earthly Dragon Beast’s short-distance explosive speed was not as fast as his.

nThe furious Earthly Dragon Beast noticed this and charged at Graff, who was running slower.

nGraff roared, “Black Rhino Knight, go!”

nThe Black Rhino Knight, sprinting away, turned his head. He gulped and looked at the hill-like Earthly Dragon Beast.

nEven though he cultivated the Giant Rhinoceros Breathing Technique, which was powerful, and had plate armor and a giant shield, when he stood before this enormous beast, he instinctively began to fear.

nOnly then did he realize that the legends of the bards were too conservative in describing the power of the Earthly Dragon Beasts.

nBy the Heavenly Father, even a grand knight would find it hard to fight this thing head-on, right?

nWith every increase in weight, its strength increased exponentially.

n“Black Rhino! Quick, lure this d*mned guy away! The effective range of the

nArmor-Breaking Crossbow was only 400 meters. The closer, the better!”

nGraff quickly climbed up a tree as thick as a bucket, trying to dodge the Earthly

nDragon Beast’s attack. The next moment, the Earthly Dragon Beast crashed

ninto the tree, and the tree fell. Graff jumped onto another tree as he fell.

nThe Black Rhino Knight gritted his teeth and charged forward like a bull, stabbing his greatsword straight into the Earthly Dragon Beast’s butt.

nBang!

nThe sound of metal clashing!

nThe Black Rhino Knight’s greatsword seemed to have pierced through plate armor. It was impossible to break through its defense.

n“Don’t waste your effort. Besides the specially made Armor-Breaking Crossbow, only a grand knight with a black gas weapon can break through the Earthly Dragon Beast’s defense!” said Graff.

nBlack Gas Entwined was a technique that only grand knights could master.

nThe next moment, the Earthly Dragon Beast turned around. A hideous wound was on its side like a spear had pierced it. The damage was profound, reaching straight into the bone marrow. However, it seemed to have begun to heal, and dense flesh had grown all over the wound.

nThe Black Rhino Knight roared, “Green Falcon Knight, come and help me!” Boom! The Earthly Dragon Beast leaped and chased after him.

nThe Green Falcon Knight turned around and saw the Earthly Dragon Beast chasing after the Black Rhino Knight.

nit!”

nHis entire body was like a flash of green light. He threw a spear at the Earthly Dragon Beast ruthlessly.

nThe spear naturally did not break through the defense and fell to the ground.

nThe Earthly Dragon Beast was also confused by the three knights.

nAlthough these three knights were weak, they stung non-stop like flies.

nIn addition, it had fought with a human powerhouse some time ago. Although the human powerhouse had been severely injured by it and escaped, the beast had also suffered considerable injuries.

nIt still managed to catch up to the slowest Black Rhino Knight. Then, it opened its mouth and bit at him.

nThe Black Rhino Knight used his long shield to block to attack, but the shield was also the victim of the attack.

nAlong with the sound of metal being squeezed, the shield deformed. The Earthly Dragon Beast’s bite force was apparent.

nThe Black Rhino Knight even brandished his greatsword, wanting to escape, but it was futile. His shield fell to the ground amid the battle.

nAt this moment, his face was filled with despair.

nWith a cracking sound, he was cut in half at the waist. The plate armor did not have much of an effect. The joint of the plate armor directly popped open. The Black Rhino Knight’s flesh and blood were dismembered. In the end, his legs fell to the ground. He howled in pain until he was bitten into fragments by the Earthly Dragon Beast and thrown away.

nHumans were not tasty, so the beast vomited the remains.

nSeeing his powerful teammate killed in a split second, Graffs heart sank.

nThe Earthly Dragon Beast continued to charge at the Green Falcon Knight, who was scared out of his wits. He used all his strength, almost exhausting his Life Seed, to inject black gas into his legs. His entire body was like a steam locomotive as he ran toward Levi.

nLevi looked calm on the surface but was a little panicked.

n“Your Excellency White Wolf, it’s up to you!”

nThe Red Spider Knight did not dare to stay any longer. She felt an imminent sense of danger and believed something terrible would happen! Her figure flashed and left the high ground.

nLevi glanced at Red Spider, who was running away, and his eyes flickered with killing intent.

n“A bunch of pigs. How unreliable.”

nThree thousand meters.

nOne kilometer.

nFour hundred meters.

nAlthough they were within range, Levi did not shoot to prevent insufficient damage.

nThe Green Falcon Knight shouted, “Hurry and shoot! I can’t do it anymore!”

nThree hundred meters.

nTwo hundred meters.

nLike a deflated balloon, the Green Falcon Knight’s speed instantly slowed. He had run too much and could no longer hold on.

nAt this moment, the Earthly Dragon Beast had already caught up.

nJust as its huge abyssal mouth was about to bite the Green Falcon Knight…

nWhoosh!

nA sharp air-piercing sound was heard.

nFollowing the sound was a specially made, two meters long crossbow bolt!

nBang!

nThe crossbow bolt pierced through the scales on the Earthly Dragon Beast’s head, aiming for its vital parts.

nOne end of the arrow pierced through the Earthly Dragon Beast.

nIt roared in pain. It did not notice that there were still people behind the bushes on the high ground!

nIt flew into a rage and used its last breath to stomp on the frightened Green Falcon Knight. Then, it charged toward Levi on the high ground.

n“It’s still not dead?”

n
