Chapter 42: Chapter 042 Endless Battle
With a “thud,” Pandora smashed the ten-meter-long tree trunk she held in her hands onto the ground. With a stomp that sank a few centimeters into the earth, she leapt into the air, smashing into the closest animal like a cannonball.
A loud “boom” sounded, and the densely packed animals were blown away by the powerful blast of air.
At the center, a wild boar was the most unfortunate one. It was targeted by Pandora’s attack and instead of being blown away by the air blast, it was smashed heavily onto the ground.
And then… there was no after that…
Pandora stood up from the boar’s body; the boar didn’t move an inch.
The animals around her, blown away by the blast, had already landed and were struggling to their feet, enclosing Pandora once again.
Pandora clenched her fists, silent, and then stomped hard on the ground again.
“Snap!”
On the ground, the body of the dead wild boar exploded under the immense force.
In the rising mist of blood, Pandora leapt up and crashed into the encirclement of animals, slashing ferociously in all directions.
In this moment, Pandora’s combat prowess as a young girl from the Dragon Clan was fully displayed.
Although she looked just like a human girl, although she appeared to be only seven or eight years old, although she only stood at a height of 1.2 meters, although she looked more coolly adorable, although she seemed to have no lethality…
But! She was still a Dragon, a Giant Dragon perched at the apex of all living beings!
“Thud,” her tender right fist struck out, the air surged, and the beast attempting to sneak attack screamed as it was smashed to the ground.
“Thud,” her tender left fist struck out, the wild wind roared, several surrounding beasts were heavily injured and sent flying.
“Thud,” her tender fists struck together, space trembled, and any beast too slow to dodge was instantly blasted to pieces.
One second… two seconds… three seconds…
A minute… two minutes… three minutes…
After three minutes, there wasn’t a single living animal in a twenty-meter radius around Pandora. With a final punch, Pandora knocked down a silverback gorilla, coldly walked back to the open space in front of the ancient castle, then picked up the large wooden stick, frowning as she scanned her surroundings.
Endless swarms of frenzied animals continued to pour in from all sides, quickly filling the gaps left by the animals she had just killed; the encirclement at the top of the small hill remained impermeable. The hundreds of frenzied animals she had just slaughtered were but a drop in the ocean to the total mass encircling the hilltop.
Although uncountable, there were at least tens of thousands of frenzied animals from the hill’s peak to its base, densely packed. More frenzied animals surged from the forest; those that arrived late had no good spots and could only wait red-eyed in the outskirts. Only when the animals in the front had all died would they have a chance to rush forward and attack.
Could they really be killed off like this?
Of course not!
She could only defend, keep defending, until daylight.
Annoying, very annoying!
Pandora thought coldly.
The same situation kept occurring every once in a while, making her feel both disgusted and helpless.
Glancing at Richard at the castle gate and then at the Dragon Cave, Pandora pursed her lips, her gaze filled with displeasure as she looked towards the many frenzied animals.
“Snap!”
Pandora slightly exerted force on her arms, tightly holding the tree trunk in her arms.
“Roar!”
Numerous crazed animals, as if provoked, roared in unison, swarming like a tidal wave.
Agile tigers, leopards, and wolves led the charge, while black bears and wild boars, with their massive bodies, squeezed into the middle, and a large group of squirrels and rabbits noisily bounced and hopped behind…
Pandora’s gaze sharpened, her expression unchanged, only her eyebrows slightly raising as she grasped a tree trunk and swung it forcefully, striking the multitude of animals.
“Roar—smack!”
The tree trunk collided with the bodies of numerous animals. Their cries stopped abruptly as the tidal surge halted momentarily, and time seemed to pause.
Then time resumed its course, and the tide fell back, turning the animals’ roars into shrieks of agony. Blood sprayed as they were flung backward in the sudden gusty wind.

“Hiss! Plop!”
The injured animals, almost upon landing, were immediately devoured. The overall morale of the animals did not falter; rather, it intensified as they charged at Pandora again.
After swinging the tree trunk, Pandora did not stop, but swung it back intensely, furiously smashing it into the crowd of animals, beginning a merciless and ruthless slaughter.
She was a Dragon, a powerful Dragon. Facing even the most frenzied ordinary animals, she could overpower them. Each swing of the trunk took at least a dozen lives. Her strength seemed inexhaustible, as if she could fight forever.
But the assaulting animals were also relentless. After one fell, two charged forward; kill two, and four attacked. The more she killed, the more frenzied and numerous they became.
It seemed both sides were unending. In this battle, who would show signs of defeat first?
The answer was… Pandora… her tree trunk.
“Swish! Smack! Swish! Smack!”
After countless swings, after countless smashes into the frenzied crowd, suddenly “crack,” the tree trunk in Pandora’s hands split. The end whirled away, knocking down a trail of frenzied animals. In the blink of an eye, Pandora was left with just a short piece of the “weapon,” significantly reducing her striking force and range. The frenzied animals seized the opportunity for a sharper attack.
Pandora’s brow furrowed tightly; after a brief pause, she was already surrounded by the multitude of crazed animals. A mountain marmot attempted to pull at Pandora’s hair; she fiercely shook her head and punched it away. Another otter leapt at her, and Pandora punched it away too.
During this slight delay, a large number of animals had already closed in on Pandora. A black bear behind her stood upright, attempting to embrace her, with its thick bear paws gleaming coldly as they descended.
Pandora snorted coldly, “Smack,” she threw away the half piece of tree trunk, grabbed one of the black bear’s paws with both hands, and with a fierce effort, she flipped the several hundred-pound bear over her shoulder.
“Boom,” the black bear heavily crashed to the ground, completely disoriented. Before it could react, Pandora, gripping its paw, swung it again, using the black bear as if it were a tree trunk.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
The newly approached frenzied animals instantly suffered, hit by the black bear’s heavy body, their bones breaking, howling as they were hurled away.
And the black bear flung up in the air was even more miserable, subjected to continuous severe impacts. After all, force is mutual, and the pain it inflicted on other frenzied animals, it equally felt.
Initially relying on its thick skin and tough flesh, the black bear felt it could barely resist and even experienced a somewhat exhilarating sensation floating in mid-air.
But this feeling, after more than ten seconds, changed; the black bear began to feel pain, a pain that intensified continually. Its thick skin and tough flesh clearly couldn’t block the continuous impact, especially hitting the horns of goats, deer, and wild buffalo…
Why all these horns?!
The black bear wanted to roar out in dissatisfaction, but no one paid it any mind. It spun faster and faster, like a fiery wheel continuing to crash into the frenzied animals.
“Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!”
After about twenty seconds, the black bear felt as if all the bones in its body were about to break, with no place on its body free from pain.
After about thirty seconds, the black bear began to seriously contemplate the rest of its bear life, pondering its fate as a completely paralyzed disabled bear.
After about forty seconds, the black bear started contemplating philosophical questions: Who am I? Where am I? How did I end up here?
Ah! Mom, save me! I want to go home!
“Boom!”
