298 The Reappearance of the Gray Howler!
Bald Eagle took out his Spirit Wave Sword and flew over as well.
Roar!
The Wind-summoning Beast was caught off guard. Seeing that its prey actually dared to retaliate, it immediately roared and pounced on the person who had attacked it.
Bald Eagle instantly felt a strong wind pressure around him. Light green wind blades covered the sky, as well as the earth, and even he felt his scalp go numb.
The Wind-summoning Beast was extremely fast, and its claws, which were the size of a basin, were as sharp as a red blade. It was like a mountain pressing down on them.
The beast was extremely powerful in terms of close combat. Even if it did not have the power of the Spirit Wave Sword, Bald Eagle would have to avoid it.
However, now that the Wind-summoning Beast had actually taken the initiative to attack, Bald Eagle was secretly delighted.
He used spirit energy to activate the storage bag, and the Magic Crystal Cannons, which were not suitable for close combat, were quickly stored inside.
Then, he held the Spirit Wave Sword in his right hand and swung it at the Wind-summoning Beast’s sharp claws.
Under the dusky sky, a blinding light suddenly appeared on the originally dim wasteland. Bald Eagle held the Spirit Wave Sword and activated the heat wave mode.
The red laser beam instantly broke through the spirt energy shield that could withstand the energy cannon, and it cut off three of the Wind-summoning Beast’s claws. The terrifying high temperature also instantly burned its front claws!
The intense pain and the fear of death made the Wind-summoning Beast lose all of its will to fight. It desperately urged its spirit energy to control the wind, blowing the terrifying human in front of it away.
Before it could turn around and escape, it suddenly saw a red light out of the corner of its eye!
“Go to hell!”
Lone Wolf’s figure instantly flashed to the Wind-summoning Beast’s side, and he stabbed it with the Spirit Wave Sword.
The terrifying heat wave laser directly burned through the Wind-summoning Beast’s abdomen. In less than a second, the beast’s huge tiger-like body was instantly turned into charcoal, and even more than half of it was vaporized by the high temperature!
The intermediate Rank 6 beast had died in less than 10 minutes under their joint attack, which was the best outcome for both of them.
Bald Eagle, who had been blown dozens of meters away by the wind, also rushed over. He was a little short of breath, but when he saw the Wind-summoning Beast’s miserable body, he finally relaxed.
“The battle is over, and the city guards stopped the beast tide. Everything should be fine after this.” Lone Wolf put the Spirit Wave Sword back on his waist and said with a relaxed expression.
“Yes, although that beast tide was huge, luckily, there were only two Rank 6 beasts, which is still within an acceptable range. Plus, this time, it was all thanks to help from the Spirit Wave Sword and the Invisibility Armor that we were able to deal with them so easily.”
Bald Eagle slowly squatted down. After examining the remains of the Wind-summoning Beast, it immediately activated the storage bag with its spiritual power and stored the body inside.
The storage bag was a piece of spirit energy equipment issued by the military. There was a Space Array drawn within, and it had a space of 10 square meters, which could store many supplies.
Although it was not as portable as an Interspatial Ring, it was cheap to make. All the cultivators in the military headquarters who were above the five-star rank had one.
After dealing with the bodies, the two of them returned to the main battlefield where they were fighting the monster horde. With the help of the veterans from the Hunter Bureau, the remaining monsters were basically cleaned up. Only the slightly stronger ones were left, and they were almost forced into a desperate situation.
There were numerous corpses on the ground, and the pungent smell of blood made many people frown a little.
The two of them noticed that the battle was in a stalemate, and they immediately joined in.
With Bald Eagle and Lone Wolf’s help, the remaining beasts were immediately cleared out. Bald Eagle collected the torn corpses too.
In the battle with the monster horde, the City Defense Army and Hunter Bureau had all suffered injuries of varying degrees, and a few of them had unfortunately lost their life.
Everyone’s heart was heavy, but they knew that it was all thanks to the people from the Hunter Bureau, Lord Eagle, and Lord Lone Wolf that they were able to clear the beasts so quickly.
Being able to stop the beasts outside the city walls of Lushui County was the best outcome.
“Clean up the mess and clear the fortifications.”
Bald Eagle looked around and did not find any living ferocious beasts in the vicinity. He turned around and prepared to go back to report today’s situation to his superiors.
Many members of the City Defense Army felt as if they had just survived a disaster. When they thought of the endless beast tide, their hearts still trembled.
They had a clear division of labor as they began to clean up the blood on the ground and the fortifications that had been destroyed by the beasts.
The roughly 20 members of the Hunter Bureau patrolled the area to see if there were any monsters that had evaded them.
Lone Wolf glanced at the blood-stained wasteland and left with Bald Eagle without looking back.
Just when everyone thought that the monster horde was gone, a loud noise suddenly rang out, causing all the city guards who were cleaning up the mess to tremble.
Everyone turned their heads in horror and saw that the nearby city wall of Lushui County had seemingly been hit by a shell.
The huge power instantly collapsed the city wall, which was more than 10 meters tall. Brick fragments flew everywhere, and the solid concrete cracked into countless pieces. Dust immediately spread several meters into the air.
The moment the city wall collapsed, a strong beastly demonic aura swept over. Bald Eagle and Lone Wolf, who were the closest to the city wall, had a change in expression.
This was because they realized that the city wall had been destroyed by the Gray Howler that had escaped from them a week ago and hidden deep in the mountains.
It was that huge intermediate Rank 6 Gray Howler!
Back then, a spatial rift had suddenly appeared in the suburbs not far from Lushui County, and the Rank 6 Gray Howler had been one of the beasts.
Fortunately, the spatial crack at that time was not big, and only about 100 fierce beasts had appeared. Moreover, they were merely Rank 4 beasts.
The people from the City Defense Army could take care of them, but the Gray Howler’s appearance was like a heavy bomb, putting all the pedestrians in its surrounding into a trap.
Fortunately, Bald Eagle and Lone Wolf arrived in time and forced the Gray Howler to retreat.
However, at that point, Lone Wolf’s leg was seriously injured. Nevertheless, despite being cunning and fast, the Gray Howler fled without a trace after Lone Wolf’s Spirit Wave Sword cut its right arm off.
Even after mobilizing the entire county’s City Defense Army, they still could not find it in Lushui County and the surrounding villages.
After that, the matter was left unsettled, and the two of them thought that the monster had fled deep into the mountains.
They did not expect the Gray Howler to appear at this critical moment and destroy the reinforced city wall with a single blow!
Thick smoke billowed, and its deafening roar almost caused everyone’s eardrums to burst!
At this moment, Lone Wolf was livid. Without waiting for Bald Eagle to say anything, he carried his Spirit Wave Sword right away and flew out using his spirit energy.
Bald Eagle could see that the situation had apparently changed a little, so he dared not delay and immediately followed.
When the two of them reached a height of more than 10 meters, they quickly discovered the Gray Howler, which was destroying the city walls nonstop.
The moment he saw the Gray Howler, Bald Eagle instantly gasped because he discovered that compared to a week ago, the current Gray Howler’s body was even more robust.
The muscles all over his body were taut, and its right arm, which Lone Wolf had originally cut vertically, was now back in its original state with only a shallow scar!
“This b*stard’s rank has actually increased!”
