Chapter 575: Chapter 411: A Fierce Beast Named Tayun
Seeing its reaction, Wu Yue breathed a sigh of relief. Beasts had a much stronger perception of danger than humans.
So, if this Crystal Core was dangerous, the little beast would have known.
She held the Crystal Core in her hand out to the little beast’s mouth, and the little guy gobbled it down in one bite.
The next moment, its once-dull fur began to glow as if coated in a halo of light. Wu Yue knew this Crystal Core was useful to Tayun.
Sure enough, in the next moment, Tayun’s body began to emit a white halo, and it jumped down from Wu Yue’s arms.
Its small body bounded away from the tree trunk with a single leap.
Wu Yue’s heart tightened. She quickly reached out to grab the little guy, but in the next instant, a majestic white Fierce Beast appeared in her line of sight.
"Host, we’re saved! Tayun really did transform again!"
Tayun let out two roars, moved closer to the tree trunk, and signaled for Wu Yue to climb onto its back.
Seeing the Fierce Beast in the distance gathering its strength to charge again, Wu Yue didn’t hesitate and climbed onto Tayun’s back in a single stride.
The System, which had been clinging to her thigh, scrambled up along with her.
"Tayun, don’t waste time with this Fierce Beast. Fly directly into the deep forest. We have something very important to do."
Tayun, who had been about to take the opportunity to deal with the Fierce Beast below, heard its master’s command. After letting out a fierce ROAR, it soared into the sky and flew toward the deep forest.
It left the Fierce Beast behind to let out waves of indignant roars.
Hearing the earth-shattering roars behind her, Wu Yue shook her fist viciously. "You just wait! Once my Tayun gets stronger, we’ll come back to take care of you."
The System, sitting up front with its cheeks trembling in the forest wind, chuckled at her words. ’This Dog Host only knows how to act tough by relying on others.’
The sun rose high in the sky. The flight of the one human and two beasts was quite pleasant, as the forest wind was cool and refreshing.
"Dog Host, the territory of the Intermediate Rank Fierce Beasts is right ahead. We should go down. It’ll be dangerous if we keep flying."
The waves of pressure from the distance were very distinct, and the System couldn’t help but speak up.
Wu Yue nodded at its words and patted Tayun’s back. "Tayun, find a safe place for us to land."
"AWOO!"
Tayun, who had been enjoying its flight, let out two reluctant cries before circling to find a spot to descend.
The human and two beasts landed in an open area and began to search for any trace of Yuan Lang and his group.
Meanwhile, in a part of the Intermediate Fierce Beast territory bordering the Advanced Fierce Beast territory, a group of more than ten Beastman Warriors were huddled cautiously inside a cave.
"Yuan Lang, Teng Qian’s injuries are much better. A few more days of rest and he should be fully recovered."
The tall, handsome Beastman at the mouth of the cave heard this, turned, and walked inside. He examined the wounds on Teng Qian, who was lying in a nest of grass, and nodded. "Yue’s medicinal powder is infused with healing witch power. It’s very effective on wounds like these. We’ll rest here for a while.
Split up and keep watch. If you spot any danger, sound the alarm immediately. Our current location should be close to the territory of the Advanced Fierce Beasts."
The Beastman Warriors all nodded in unison, their expressions growing grim.
"I just never expected that the Beast Tendons needed to make Bows and Arrows would have to be from a Single-horned Flood Dragon."
The Single-horned Flood Dragon was a type of Fierce Beast ranked between Intermediate and Advanced Fierce Beasts.
Most clans of Single-horned Flood Dragons were made up of Intermediate Fierce Beasts, but their strongest members possessed power comparable to Advanced Fierce Beasts. This was especially true for the leader of the Single-horned Flood Dragon Beasts, which was guaranteed to be an Advanced Fierce Beast.
That was why the Single-horned Flood Dragon Beasts were able to hold a territory that straddled both the Intermediate and Advanced Territories.
They had happened upon a fight between two Fierce Beasts during a hunt once, and one of them had been a Single-horned Flood Dragon Beast.
After the Single-horned Flood Dragon Beast was defeated, most of its flesh was devoured by the other Fierce Beast. Luckily, its tendon was left behind.
They took it back to experiment with, as was their custom. Who would have known that the tendon of a Single-horned Flood Dragon Beast would be perfectly suited for making the Beastman Warriors’ Bows and Arrows?
Even without any treatment, it wouldn’t snap. An arrow fired from a bow using it, even when drawn only slightly, could pierce straight through a large tree. The power was immense.
Such a powerful weapon made everyone’s eyes gleam. The looks they gave the Bow and Arrow in Yuan Lang’s hands were incredibly fervent.
"There’s still some time before winter arrives. Before then, we need to hunt as many Single-horned Flood Dragons as we can and bring them back."
Yuan Lang caressed the Bow and Arrow in his hand. ’With this Bow and Arrow, the winter Beast Tide won’t be so terrifying. Combined with the arrangements Yue made earlier, we can drastically reduce the casualties among our tribespeople.’
