The charging speed of the heavily armored elephant cavalry was still accelerating, but just when it was about to reach the limit, a frustrated cry came from the horizon.
The next moment, all the giant hyenas retreated, and the tide came and went, leaving only flesh and blood and broken bones on the ground.
Seeing this, Chen Yi narrowed his eyes and stared closely at the retreating giant hyena. However, he was shocked to find that after the giant hyena walked away, it disappeared from sight after a while.
They seem to be invisible, no, it should be said to be protective colors, blending themselves with the weeds and shrubs everywhere.
Because if Chen Yi looks carefully, he can still find some incongruities and something is wrong.
"Please, don't pursue the poor bandits."
Chen Yi raised his hand. Seeing this, the elephant rider behind also slowly slowed down and stopped little by little.
After it came to a complete stop, it reversed direction and returned to the direction where the group of people were before.
"Commander, hyenas are creatures that bully the weak and fear the strong, but are very vengeful. They are like dog-skin plaster and are difficult to get rid of.
Although these are giant hyenas, they are probably similar."
The man who had recognized the giant hyena said loudly, with some worry on his face.
"I'm afraid there must be hundreds of thousands of giant hyenas here. It's impossible to kill them all."
Hearing this, the crossbowman behind looked at the inventory of crossbow arrows in the space device, briefly counted and calculated the consumption, and said nothing more.
Chen Yi nodded and turned to look at Yang Lixin.
"Lixin, how's it going? Did you find the body?"
"Boss, I only found half of it, and the rest was taken back by the giant hyena."
"Hey, do these beasts care so much about love and justice? Will they take the body back?"
"Shit, that's for eating. We are meat, and the dead giant hyena is also meat. People are not taboo about this. If you take it back, it will be a delicious meal."
"Well......"
"Okay, don't worry so much, just take that half and study it.
We can’t stay here anymore, so leave quickly, I feel something is wrong, it seems like there are animals watching us.”
Chen Yi shouted in a deep voice, his brows furrowed and his eyes constantly scanning the weeds and shrubs at the edge of his field of vision.
He always felt a vague sense of peeping, but he couldn't find the source, which made him a little uncomfortable.
"Yes, Commander, but should we continue to advance in five teams as before?"
"No, concentrate your efforts. We have already explored the direction before. Next, we only need to walk a certain distance and explore again. There is no need to take risks."
Everyone nodded after hearing this, packed up a little, and left the area.
Although the battle was fierce, there were no casualties. The most serious one was the man who had just been attacked by surprise.
The armor on the neck of the elephant he was riding was torn open with a ferocious crack, but the elephant itself was not hurt.
This is a major advantage of the heavily armored Elephant Cavalry.
Using mutated elephants as mounts, their huge size, amazing load capacity and unparalleled endurance allow them to wear heavy armor that is twice, three times, or even five times thicker than ordinary heavy armored cavalry.
This level of armor is completely like a city wall, and its defensive power is absolutely unparalleled. Ordinary attacks will leave scratches on the body of the elephant knight at most, and there is no way to hurt this one wrapped in an iron can.
elephant.
The group of people left, and on the back of Chen Yi's elephant, several people dissected half of the giant hyena.
This is the upper half of the body of a giant hyena. It seemed to have hit the collision angle, and the direct impact point was smashed into pieces by the hard collision angle.
The minced meat flew around, leaving only the upper half of the body.
"Commander, we found the beast soul. It's a third-level beast soul."
A crossbowman took out a dark round bead from the giant hyena and handed it to Chen Yi.
"How can it be possible at the third level? With such a strong strength, how can it be only at the third level?"
Chen Yi opened his eyes when he heard this and shouted in surprise.
You know, the first elephant rider to be attacked by surprise had his lance swiped at the waist of a giant hyena, as if it was swiped at a steel plate.
The giant hyena was only injured. The specifics of the injury are not clear, but at least he did not die on the spot.
If it were an ordinary third-level mutant beast, it would probably be shattered into pieces if it were hit by a lance in any area.
Because the main battle knights are all of the fifth level, because the spears in their hands are sharp weapons, as heavy as a thousand.
"Boss, this is indeed the third level. You can tell at a glance. How dare I lie to you."
The crossbowman shrank his neck and explained quickly. Chen Yi didn't say anything after hearing this. He directly took the beast soul and took a look.
In fact, there is no need to look at it. Chen Yi is very familiar with the third-order beast soul. He can feel the energy fluctuations in it as soon as he touches it.
It was indeed the third level, but to be on the safe side, Chen Yi took out a third level beast soul from the space device for comparison, and found that there was indeed no difference.
The dark beast soul was only as big as a little finger, and was filled with black smoke. In the middle of the smoke was an illusory giant hyena suspended in it.
"call."
Chen Yi took a deep breath before speaking out.
"That should mean that the bloodline is strong. The giant hyena...is it just because it is from ancient times that it has strong bloodline?"
"The so-called bloodline atavism means returning to their state, returning to the state of their ancient ancestors, and then inheriting their advantages or disadvantages?"
Chen Yi murmured to himself, and there was a vague guess in his heart.
After thinking about it, he waved his hand and threw the third-level beast soul over.
"I remember that your space device is very big, right? Put this half of the giant hyena in it, and put this beast soul together. Keep it well."
Chen Yi felt that this half of the giant hyena might be his first harvest when he came to the world of the First Emperor.
This may be an ancient mutated beast.
"Yes, boss, let me send some of the supplies out first to make room?"
"Can."
Seeing Chen Yi nod, the crossbowman who also served as the logistics director immediately summoned the elephant riders one by one to distribute supplies, and only took in the giant hyenas after enough space had been vacated.
.......
After Chen Yi and others left, groups of giant hyenas returned to the battlefield.
Each giant hyena is as big as an unmutated elephant. Now they all lower their heads and scratch on the ground.
Broken meat, broken bones, and even the soil stained with blood were swallowed whole.
During this period, several pterosaurs that covered the sky passed by, causing the giant hyena to stare at the sky with vigilance. It bared its teeth and exposed the ferocious fangs in its ferocious mouth, acting as a silent intimidation.
In addition, some small carnivores appeared on the periphery of the battlefield, lurking around, sniffing and greedily capturing the rich smell of blood in the air.
Just when they came out, the giant hyena also spotted them, and part of them stared at them, baring their teeth.
And just as the three parties looked at each other, giant hyenas appeared silently on the periphery, and countless giant hyenas surrounded them all.
boom!
A silent battle broke out, and the giant hyena was completely victorious, but there were also a few more alert predators who left with the giant hyena's body in their mouths.
During this period, several pterosaurs swooped down, grabbed a few corpses, and then left gracefully. However, one of them missed a move and was bitten by a giant hyena, unable to fly. It was torn into thousands of pieces of meat on the spot, and it was considered a giant hyena.
belly.
All this continued until the blood-stained soil in this area was devoured by giant hyenas and the source of the smell of blood disappeared.
As the source of the smell disappeared, the rich smell of blood did not continue to spread further, but slowly dispersed.
