Chapter 405 The strange bird of Lake Stymphalos, the Blade of Behemoth
The autumn sky is bare.
In the vast sea of clouds, the flying shadow of the dragon eagle passed by.
The wind roared high in the sky, and a silver-white barrier lit up around the dragon eagle. When the chaotic airflow touched the spherical barrier, it created ripples.
Violet was riding on the back of a particularly powerful Dragon Eagle King, talking to Yeats who was riding another Dragon Eagle not far away, and asked:
"My Lord Duke, there are only three days left before your next round of duel. Why are you going to Falis Lake at this time?"
"I am interested in the local man-eating monster bird in Fallis Lake, which is suitable as food for my demon pet."
"You mean the Bronze-Winged Bone-Eating Owl?"
Violet read a string of awkward academic names and said in surprise:
"This kind of monster is made of steel and iron bones. Can it also be used as food?"
Hearing this, Gray, who was sitting on the back of the other dragon eagle, suddenly pursed his lips and thought to himself:
"The name of this bird sounds like it has teeth!"
"My demon pet... is not picky about food, and will also eat bone marrow." Yeats replied.
Violet was in awe, and deeply admired Violet for traveling a long distance to tame a familiar before the duel.
"The Bronze-Winged Bone-Eating Owl is just a king-level monster, and it can't hurt you at all."
Violet reminded:
"Of course, you still need to be careful with the silver-winged and golden-winged Bone-Eating Owls, especially the Golden-winged Bone-Eating Owl, which is a direct descendant of the epic monster [Stympharos Lake Monster Bird]. It is invulnerable and extremely difficult to deal with!"
According to the laws of this world, the great hero Hercules should have been a saint-level powerhouse when he participated in the Twelve Trials.
Even he would find it difficult to face the [Stympharos Lake Strange Bird], and he needed the help of the Goddess of Wisdom to overcome the difficulties, which proved the threat of this strange bird.
Thousands of years have passed, and the epic monsters of that time have also produced offspring, but the habit of cannibalism has not changed...
While Yeats was thinking, Mammon's greedy voice sounded.
"Gold-winged Bone-Eating Owl, sounds very valuable!"
Yeats said: "The bronze-winged bone-eating owl is better, this bird has more meat!"
Hilud has remained silent, her calm eyes always alert to enemies that may appear in the air, her long fiery red hair flying in the wind.
Violet had noticed the red-haired female knight next to Yeats early on, and accidentally caught a glimpse of her face when she took off her eagle helmet. She was shocked. Combined with the highly recognizable red hair, she couldn't help but doubt her. She is the princess of the northern royal family.
Due to the close relationship between Violet and Yeats, nobles in the social circle of the Roland Kingdom often inquired about Violet and asked whether Yeats was married.
It is very common for a duke to marry three wives and four concubines, but Duke Yeats seems to have few romantic anecdotes, as if he has already found his heart.
Violet looked at his exchange with the two girls beside him, thoughtfully... It seemed that she was right!
The two girls have very different auras, and their appearance is no less impressive than the modified beauties described by painters. Duke Honeysuckle is also a well-known handsome knight in the mainland, with outstanding character and strength.
Violet felt a little emotional, and for a moment she didn't know whether she was envious of Yeats or the two girls!
Below the sea of clouds, a lush hill appears. Although the vegetation is lush, it still reveals a hint of forest. The thorny thorns and curved branches make the forest grotesque and weird, giving off a faintly ominous flavor.
"Lake Falis is on the top of that hill!" Violet pointed to the mist-shrouded hill and said, "Because it is threatened by Bone-Eating Owls all year round, there are almost no humans living around it, only demon hunters and Only adventurers, or nobles seeking excitement, come to hunt in this deep mountain forest!”
Yeats applied the eagle's eye spell to his eyes, and his eyesight suddenly penetrated the sea of clouds and saw the scene of the lake on the top of the mountain. The lake is deep and the blue surface of the lake seems calm, but it reflects on the bare iron treetops on the lakeshore, strange birds that are bigger than cows!
Among all living things, the ostrich is already the largest bird. This strange bird with a copper head and iron feathers and a long beak is several times larger than the ostrich. Its dark eyes rotate ruthlessly, ready to hunt at any time. Kill predators.
"One, two, three... I can't count. There are dozens of these bone-eating owls by the lake!" Gray said in surprise.
"Why has no one cleaned up the monster lair here?" Yeats asked.
Violet said: "It's not that no one is cleaning up, but there will be a new wave after cleaning up. Besides, the Dragon Eagle Knights shoulder the responsibility of protecting His Majesty and the Royal Capital. It is impossible for me to send elite knights here privately. ! ”
"In this case, I will eliminate harm for the people!"
Yeats paused and said: "Remember to tell King Roland about my heroic deeds, lest he forget the reward he gave me!"
Violet was speechless and said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty is generous and has a keen eye for talents. He will definitely not let your efforts go in vain!"
After sending Yeats and his party to the foot of Falis Lake, Violet left in a hurry. As she said, she did not clean up the local monsters. This escort was also to thank Yeats. It was a private act and needed Return to work immediately.
Hilud, who had been silent, said:
"She said that after one wave of cleansing, there will be another wave, either because the demon hunter responsible for clearing the monsters was negligent and left the Bone Eater's underground nest undamaged, or the local lord needed to keep this hill... No matter what It is possible to use troops to support oneself or to ask for subsidies.”
"These corrupt and degenerate feudal lords!" Yeats cursed.
"Yeats, you are also a lord..." Gray whispered.
"I have never experienced the taste of corruption!" Yeats didn't know whether to defend or regret.
Mammon said seductively: "Come to hell! I will arrange ten succubi for you every day, each of which is carefully selected from Lilith!"
Yeats said: "Is it true?"
Mammon said calmly: "Of course, I am a businessman who multiplies ten. You can ask for a hundred, as long as you can afford it!"
Yeats didn't believe the devil's lies, but then again, it's not impossible to wander through hell. With the Nibelung Ring, you can travel through various planes at will, which is much more tiring than a bunch of gods and bosses. It’s so much easier to cross planes!
Even if the hill was controlled by a local lord, Yeats hunted without any scruples——
Find out who your friends are in Roland? Sun King! If you have anything to say, speak to your king!
In order not to let any fish slip through the net, Yeats, Gray, and Hilde walked up the mountain. When they encountered the bone-eating bird, they immediately took action, killing it without even letting out a scream.
The four-ring king-level monsters are already a deterrent, and the four-ring monsters that live in groups are synonymous with natural disasters. If they are dispatched together, an entire small town will be reduced to a land of bones.
But for Yeats now, hunting king-level monsters is a bit boring. One hit will kill you, there is no trouble, the only fun is testing the damage...
Magic spear [Gayaberg], big bow [Bow of Artemis], trident [Spear of the Blood King], stabbing sword [Sword of Silver], musical instrument [Lyre of Light]... Yeats used different tricks. Spells and combat skills, we finally came to the conclusion that the strongest trump card is the Silver Sword!
Under the premise of burning the divinity of the dark night, the power of the magic gun [Gayaberg] is much stronger than the big bow [Bow of Artemis].
But it happened that it was not suitable to use the divinity of the dark night in a duel meeting, which gave Yeats a headache.
The trident [Blood King Spear] and the blood style combat skills were the styles that Yeats mainly used during the Golden Lion period. They still cannot keep up with the version, mainly because he did not regularly train the blood style combat skills.
[Blood King Spear] Even if it is a demon ritual weapon, it is not as powerful as the 'Gayaberg' given by my mentor in my own hands. As for the musical instrument... the Bright Lyre can release air blades, which is one of its few physical attack methods. In other cases, it usually relies on the magic control song to let the enemies kill each other, which is not suitable for one-on-one duels.
The gluttony ritual tool he obtained not long ago can transform into an activated weapon [Blade of Behemoth]. Yeats used it very skillfully. The problem is that Behemoth consumes a lot of money and he cannot eat enough in advance. Food, it would be embarrassing to change back to its original state after a while.
Yeats summoned Behemoth, threw a lifeless bronze-winged bone-eater in front of it, and said:
"Master Bei, these bone-eating birds belong to you, gnaw the bones clean, and don't let go of any scraps of meat!"
Behemoth hummed happily: "Ouch!"
Not to mention eating all the bones, I swallowed all the bones!
Soon, Behemoth chewed the hard copper bones of the bone-eater.
Seeing Behemoth's good appetite, Yeats nodded with satisfaction and said:
“It can be seen that this is a tough dish!”
One of the things that chefs worry about the most is that the dishes they prepare are not to the liking of others, and they have to be thrown away in the end, which is both wasteful and distressing.
Behemoth accepts everyone who comes, it is like a large trash can, you can pour anything into it, and you can replenish energy with anything!
Gray is very interested in the new Behemoths who have joined the team, and asks questions about Behemoths’ recipes from time to time:
"Xiao Bei, do you eat ham?"
"Xiao Bei, do you eat cactus?"
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
"Xiao Bei, do you eat pebbles?"
"Ouch!!" Behemoth roared, indicating that I would eat the pebbles too! It can speed up the digestion of the stomach!
Yeats read Behemoth's memory. It can eat soil, but it provides very little energy and will gradually worsen its appetite.
Ore rich in gold element is an excellent ration for Behemoth. Its ultimate form, the legendary monster Behemoth recorded in "Genesis", eats a thousand mountain peaks every day, and the mountains are also particular about eating mines! Only in this way can the destructive power of Behemoth be maintained!
By halfway up the mountain, Behemoth had already devoured nearly a dozen bronze-winged bone-eating birds, and his complexion had improved significantly. His bulging belly was like an inflated purple balloon, and his shiny black mane was shining. The long horns on the top of the head look powerful.
Yeats's visual inspection showed that Mr. Bei now has a five-ring hero-level combat power. The three stages of [Blade of Behemoth] activated are enough to sustain a battle.
The seven demonic ritual weapons already possess the power at the pinnacle of the material plane.
'Gluttony' Behemoth's peak power should be at the level of a six-ring emperor-level monster. Transformed into a weapon form, it can cooperate with Yeats in a two-on-one duel. It is more powerful than Gayaberg who does not burn the dark night divinity. Even stronger!
"The smell of blood here is so strong..." Hilud's voice was low, he took off the giant sword hanging on his shoulder and took a step forward, "You guys stand behind me..."
Yeats looked at Herod's back with a swaying cloak, and his heart moved. This was the sense of security coming from his wife!
"Bone-eating birds have the habit of bringing prey back to their nests to eat." Yeats analyzed, "The smell of blood should be emitted by the corpses remaining in the nests... The nests must be destroyed later to avoid eating them. The bone bird continues to hurt people.”
Yeats originally thought about feeding the Bone-Eating Owl's lair to Behemoth, but then he thought about it. After all, it was his own demon pet, so forget about human bones... and feed it with other nutritious things instead!
Click——
As we walked further up the mountain, the smell of blood became stronger and stronger. There was a thick layer of dead branches and leaves on the ground, making a slight sound when you stepped on them.
In the afternoon, the crows echoing in the sky made the mountain forest seem even more dead. Looking through the dense forest, one can already see densely packed strange birds perched on the treetops by the lake... A man-eating ferocious beast with a copper head and iron feathers. It is huge and terrifying, with scarlet gazes shooting out of its skull-like eye sockets.
"Xiao Bei, you take the lead!" Yeats's voice broke the dead silence of the forest.
In addition to [Blade of Behemoth], Mr. Bei also has another ability, and that is [Gigantization]!
After giant transformation, Mr. Bei's size can increase dramatically, like a giant wild boar with double horns!
“Quack——!!”
When the death-like strange birds heard the noise, they turned their heads to look at it and made a chilling scream. Suddenly, swarms of strange birds fluttered from the branches, as if black clouds were pressing overhead, and the atmosphere suddenly became chilly! !
At a glance, there are nearly a hundred bronze-winged bone-eating owls circling, ranging in size from large to small, with strengths ranging from the second to the fourth ring. The scale and threat are no less than a beast tide!
"Ouch!!" Behemoth roared, emphasizing.
I told you a long time ago that you have to call me Mr. Bei outside! !
Behemoth had eaten and drank enough, and his aura was different from before. His eyes shot out with a piercing gaze, and his body was wrapped with purple energy. He looked up to the sky and roared, his bones and muscles made crackling sounds, and his body size increased at a speed visible to the naked eye! !
boom!
The back soles of Behemoth were polished on the ground, the black mane became more elegant after becoming giant, and the muscles of the purple body were tangled, charging suddenly like a ball of cannonballs, stirring up billowing dust!
"Yeats, you can ride Behemoth to fight in the future!" Gray exclaimed.
Yeats was in a mixed mood.
Doesn't that mean... Hog Rider?
Yeats was not in a hurry to take action. He wanted to first see the combat power of Behemoth when it was not weaponized.
Behemoth's combat skills are very crude, mainly relying on its strong body and the sharp horns on its head to collide, but it has an advantage in level. The pressure of the emperor-level monster is effective at this moment, greatly curbing the bone-gnawing Bird offensive.
Bah!
The sharp horn of Behemoth penetrated a swooping bone-eating bird. He grinned proudly, shook his head suddenly, threw it into the dust, and roared: "Ouch!"
I am not a vegetarian!
Even though it’s vegetarian, it’s not impossible to eat it!
There were too many bone-eating birds, and they kept coming like an endless black tide. Blood stains gradually appeared on Behemoth's body, and his breathing gradually became heavier, but his fighting spirit was quite tenacious.
Yeats suddenly remembered the scene of Behemoth struggling to survive on the night of the contract, and nodded with satisfaction.
After all, Mr. Bei has the blood of the legendary monster in his body... Not bad!
[Blade of Behemoth] has its own blood-sucking spell 'Gluttonous Feast', which can devour the opponent's flesh and blood and use it for one's own use. It matches the scarlet fighting spirit very well... Maybe this is the bond between the demon gods of hell!
Yeats's body was ignited with scarlet fighting spirit, he suddenly stepped on the ground, rushed into the sky like an arrow, and shouted:
"Master Bei, here comes the knife!"
A suction force formed in Yeats's palm, which resonated with the soul of the activated weapon 'Behemoth'. Behemoth roared in response, shook off the bone-eating bird pressing on him, then quickly shrank in size, shrouded in purple-red light, turned into a beam of purple light, and fell into the palm of Yeats!
The purple-red light in his palm expanded rapidly, and Yeats directly activated the third form of [Blade of Behemoth].
Stupid!
Tai Dao's blade ignited with scarlet flames, and he cut it directly!
Yeats had never used such a strange sword, but it had the same usage in swordsmanship, so he swung it wide and wide, stirring up a strong air flow, slashing in a wide range of 360 degrees, and slashed forward. Shoot down all the bone-eating birds that come!
The bone-eating birds screamed, both out of anger and fear! Led by a silver-winged bone-eating bird, a large number of bone-eating birds rushed high into the sky, trying to distance themselves, and fired arrows to kill Yeats!
Whoosh whoosh! !
Iron feathers fell like a rainstorm, and each feather shot out from the bone-eating bird was quenching the poison in their body, glowing with a chilling cold light!
Spell·Iron Feather Poison Feather!
Nearly a hundred bone-eating birds used racial spells together, with a terrifying momentum that covered the sky!
Yeats clasped his hands together and slashed with the almost two-meter-long sword, causing a sea of purple-red fire to fill the sky!
Combat Skill·Judgement!
With a violent roar and explosion, the flames swallowed up all the arrows!
Not only did this flame not weaken, but it further surged, and golden flames surged like a fire dragon rampaging among a group of strange birds! The bone-eating birds stained with golden flames screamed one after another, the pungent smell of sulfur spread rapidly, and the ignited strange birds fell in pieces like scattered sparks!
Herod and Gray looked up and took a deep breath.
The inheritance of the Judgment Angel, combined with the activated weapon of the Hell Demon...the power is too terrifying!
Used to kill the king of monsters, it is suspected of being overqualified!
Behemoth's fluctuations came from the hilt of the sword, and it was also excited!
I have been wandering for half my life without meeting my master, and now I finally meet the right master!
"Ouch!!" Behemoth was excited.
Eat, you can eat these roasted strange birds!
