Chapter 43: Evil Magical Beasts, Blood on the Defense Line

It was already evening when Lin Tian and Wang Xue’s team finished cleaning up Mount Shou.

At the moment when the cleaning team of Mount Shou was about to gather, the earth in the distance started to tremble.

“What’s going on?”

Lin Tian frowned slightly. He saw a dense group of magical beasts charging over not far away.

The magical beasts were densely packed. There were nearly 20,000 of them. The dust that rose from their hooves was at least a few meters high. At the same time, the ground trembled.

“Over a hundred bronze-level magical beasts. How can we possibly defend against them?”

“There are over 50 of us. Are we going to die here?”

Many of the team members felt despair when they saw this scene. Although the number of magical beasts charging over was not very large, there were still over a hundred bronze-level magical beasts.

At the same time, there were thousands of black iron-level magical beasts. With just a few dozen of them, it was impossible for them to defend against those magical beasts.

“Quiet, let’s fight and retreat. Retreat to the defensive line!”

Among this group of people, Captain Zhou Tao clearly had the right to speak. Each member of the combat team belonged to a different sub-team. However, when there was only one captain, this captain had the temporary authority to lead.

When Captain Zhou Tao spoke, the other members could only bite the bullet. As for him, he summoned the Thunder Goshawk to his side.

This blue-white goshawk was bathed in lightning. Behind Zhang Yi, it could even reach 20 meters. When it bombarded 200 meters away, it struck out five to six bolts of lightning. It instantly exploded, leaving behind five to six deep pits, it barely slowed down the advancing pace of the magical beasts.

“Members of team 11, cover the other members and retreat to the no. 3 defense line with me!”

Zhou Tao said in a deep voice. Then, he called out to the Thunder Goshawk to blast out a one-kilometer-long pit to delay the magical beasts’ attack.

At the same time, Lin Tian rode on the Silver Moon Wolf King and followed.

“Xiao Hui, Wolf King Bomb!”

Lin Tian ordered Silver Wolf to attack and assist Zhou Tao. Wang Xue followed. The Frost Goshawk rose into the air and condensed ice flames in its mouth.

“Frost Goshawk, Frozen World!”

Wang Xue ordered the Frost Goshawk to freeze the ground in front of the pit, making the ground slippery and making it more difficult for the magical beasts to move.

The Frost Goshawk also froze a kilometer of ground a hundred meters away. With Lin Tian’s few Wolf King Bombs blasting out a few deeper pits, the simple terrain of the pit was ready.

“Roar!”

“Roar!”

More than 20,000 magical beasts roared as they charged towards the defensive line. The magical beasts of the other team members also took action. The moment these magical beasts fell into the tunnel, they were met with countless energy cannons.

[ Ding… ]

[ Ding… ]

Lin Tian also took the opportunity to advance further, reaping experience points.

However, the trap was only last temporary. After trapping a number of the magical beasts, more magical beasts had already closed in. The team members fought and retreated, retreating to a place only seven to eight kilometers away from the no. 3 defensive line.

“Rumble!”

“Rumble!”

Just as everyone’s firepower covered the area, the ground trembled once again. Following that, two huge magical beasts that far exceeded the normal magical beasts’ size and were nearly twenty meters in length appeared.

“Roar!”

A huge tiger beast with green flames burning on its body and two huge fangs protruding from its mouth, and a huge lion beast with red flames burning all over its body and fiery red fur charged out.

They glared at the no. 3 defense line in front of them, and the eyes of the huge lion beast were emitting black smoke.

“Why are the silver-level magical beasts, the Green Flame Sabre-toothed Tiger and the Raging Flame Lion, here?”

Zhou Tao’s face turned pale when he saw this. Logically speaking, this kind of small beast horde shouldn’t have silver-level magical beasts.

The silver-level magical beast would only appear in a magical horde with at least 50,000 magical beasts.

What was going on?

“Silver-level, why would there be a silver-level magical beast?”

However, before Zhou Tao started to panic, the team members behind him were terrified already.

Originally, hundreds of bronze-level magical beasts were already desperate enough.

Now, there were two silver-level magical beasts.

“I’ll hold off these two silver-level magical beasts, you guys quickly retreat to the no. 3 defense line!”

Zhou Tao growled and immediately transformed into his armor. The blue-white armor covered his body, and he ordered the members of team 11 to retreat.

When the silver-level magical beasts appeared, it was no longer something they could hold off.

They could only wait for reinforcements.

“Captain, how can you hold them off by yourself?”

When Lin Tian heard this, he said in a solemn voice. These were two silver-level magical beasts, not just one. With Zhou Tao alone, how could he hold them off.

“Armor transformation!”

Zhou Tao immediately used armor transformation. The blue-white standard armor covered his body, and lightning covered his body. He flapped his wings and soared into the sky.

“I can fly, don’t worry about me. You guys retreat now.”

Zhou Tao growled. At the same time, two bolts of lightning condensed in his hands and shot toward the Green Flame Saber-toothed Tiger. The Green Flame Sabre-toothed Tiger roared and condensed green flames that shot toward Zhou Tao.

The green flames that filled the sky covered over 200 meters, burning the surrounding air extremely hot.

At the same time, the Raging Flame Lion pounced towards Zhou Tao from the side. To him, the pressure from the two silver-level magical beasts was still quite great.

“Wang Xue, can I borrow your Frost Goshawk?”

“What do I need to do?”

“Use the Frozen World to freeze the Raging Flame Lion’s limbs. This will buy some time for the captain.”

Lin Tian came to Wang Xue’s side. The control skill was just in time to come in handy. Wang Xue nodded. Then, she had the Frost Goshawk spit out ice flames, freezing the ground where the Raging Flame Lion was.

Countless pieces of ice began to condense rapidly. In the end, the four limbs of the Raging Flame Lion were temporarily frozen, buying some time for Zhou Tao.

“Thunder Pulse Attack!”

Zhou Tao growled in a low voice. At the same time, the wings on his back flapped and his hands spread open. A bolt of lightning as thick as a bowl shot down from the sky. The power of the condensed lightning condensed in his hands and then smashed toward the Green Flame Saber-toothed Tiger.

“Boom!”

“Boom!”

The explosion of the lightning at a close distance sent the Green Flame Saber-toothed Tiger flying in an instant. Large patches of charred flesh appeared on the Green Flame Saber-toothed Tiger’s body.

“Thank you, Lin Tian!”

After Zhou Tao finished speaking, he rose into the air and continued to condense lightning, charging towards the Raging Flame Lion. At this moment, the Raging Flame Lion had already broken free from its restraints and was charging towards Lin Tian and the rest.

However, at this moment, Lin Tian realized that something was wrong.

Black smoke actually started to emerge from the Green Flame Saber-toothed Tiger’s body. At the same time, its body started to change.

“Thump thump!”

“Thump thump thump!”

A loud heartbeat sounded. The body of the Green Flame Saber-toothed Tiger started to burn with green-black flames. Then, it stood up. The wounds on its body had all healed. It roared and rushed towards Zhou Tao.

“Not good, captain, be careful!”

Lin Tian shouted. At the same time, he condensed the Wolf King Bomb. He did not expect that the evil organization would not even let the magical beasts go. The evil energy actually appeared on the magical beasts.

However, it was too late. The Green Flame Saber-toothed Tiger’s speed was too fast. In almost an instant, Zhou Tao was knocked down. At the critical moment, Zhou Tao roared and grabbed two silver-level magical beasts.

“Lin Tian, I’ll leave this place to you!”

Following that, a special communication device flew out. Following that, a dazzling light instantly illuminated the entire no. 3 defense line.

“Boom!”

“Boom!”

A shocking explosion resounded throughout the entire no. 3 defense line.
