Chapter 71 The Beast Tide Arrives

The mercenaries who were resting and recuperating in the Howling Forest were on alert.

Without Yiyun and Chu Lin, the two awakened ones, in the team, they became more cautious.

Although they were the team escorting the two.

After the sneak attack last night, the mercenaries were extremely tense, and even now they have not eased much.

Several compatriots died in the sneak attack last night.

Some were slightly injured, but the fine steel crossbow arrows were coated with poison, and the mercenaries hit by the crossbow arrows were basically unable to move today.

"Boss, what do you think the two awakened adults went to do? They are not familiar with the terrain of the Howling Forest, right?"

A mercenary on duty asked casually when he had nothing to do.

The captain of the mercenaries shook his head and said he didn't know.

It is true that the two awakened ones are powerful, but what can they do in this completely unfamiliar forest?

They can't get lost while walking, right?

The captain of the mercenary team was also very confused, especially because these two awakeners were not ordinary awakeners!

Both of them were from a prominent family, the awakeners from the Crazy Lion Family, one of the three major families of the Roaring Tribe.

"A man and a woman, what can they do? Do you need to think about it?"

A mercenary joked casually.

This remark immediately attracted a burst of laughter from other mercenaries, which made the mercenaries' nervous hearts relax a little.

"Shut up, the hearing of awakeners is much stronger than that of ordinary people. These two are awakeners from the Crazy Lion Family. If they hear you, do you want to die?"

The captain of the mercenary team frowned slightly when he heard this, and immediately scolded.

The mercenary touched his head and kept silent.

In their eyes, the awakeners of the Crazy Lion Family are a symbol of an unattainable and noble status.

Mercenaries like them will definitely pay a very heavy price if they are heard even if they make a verbal joke, let alone touch it.

However, just when the mercenaries were somewhat silent, a long and faint roar came from the depths of the Howling Forest.

The sound was a little low and mixed with the mixed sounds of the ghost trees.

But these mercenaries have been making a living in the Howling Forest for many years, dealing with mutant monsters every day, so their hearing is naturally very sharp.

Many of them heard this roar.

"Hmm? Boss, it seems that there is a monster's sound?"

A mercenary said uncertainly.

"I heard it, everyone is alert and ready for battle!"

The captain of the mercenary team shouted decisively, picked up the weapons in his hands, and began to arrange.

"I hope it's not a powerful monster. The two awakened masters haven't come back yet..."

The captain of the mercenary team commanded the mercenaries to build temporary fortifications, but his brows were tightly furrowed, and he prayed secretly in his heart.

After a while, when the mercenaries had built all the fortifications, they breathed a sigh of relief and felt a little safe.

A low sound of footsteps was heard again in the Howling Forest.

Dong, Dong, Dong...

The sound was like a slowly beating drum. As the footsteps became clearer, each muffled sound seemed to hit the mercenaries' hearts, making them feel a little stuffy.

The captain of the mercenary team suddenly had a very ominous premonition.

Finally, when this huge monster appeared in their sight.

Every mercenary who saw the full appearance of this mutant monster was stunned. The weapons in their hands fell to the ground. They were deeply shocked and could not raise the thought of resistance.

The huge body, fierce momentum, and ferocious face...

"Dark... Shadow Angry Dragon..."

The weapon in the hands of the captain of the mercenary team also fell to the ground involuntarily, and he even had slurred words and felt a little dizzy.

Although he had never seen what a real Shadow Angry Dragon looked like.

But after fighting in the Howling Forest for so long, he had never seen such a fierce monster, and he couldn't even raise the thought of resistance.

Just the fact that it walked over step by step with heavy steps, carrying a majestic pressure, was enough to make people lose confidence on the spot.

The captain of the mercenary team was almost certain that this mutant monster that had never been seen before was the Shadow Dragon that was constantly circulating among the mercenaries!

The Shadow Dragon slowly came to the camp where the mercenary team was located. Under its pressure, the mercenaries didn't even have the courage to escape. Everyone's eyes were full of despair, staring straight at the giant monster in front of them that they had never seen before.

"Roar--"

The Shadow Dragon slowly opened its bloody roar, raised its neck, and let out a long roar that shook the sky.

The roar resounded throughout the Howling Forest, suppressing the friction sound of the ghost tree, and scaring away countless mutant birds living in the Howling Forest.

It was as if the king of the Howling Forest was swearing its sovereignty...

The Roaring Tribe.

Although the Howling Forest is quite far from the Roaring Tribe, as the closest restricted area to the Roaring Tribe, the Roaring Tribe has never stopped observing the Howling Forest over the years.

At this time, the person on duty on the Roaring Tribe's monitoring tower heard a slight movement and immediately jumped up to look in the direction of the Howling Forest through the monitoring telescope.

A large group of mutant birds were seen fleeing from the Howling Forest like frightened birds.

"Hmm? What happened in the Howling Forest?"

The man on duty frowned slightly and continued to watch.

He was originally going to continue to observe the situation in the Howling Forest, but the flight path of the birds that flew out of the Howling Forest made him a little concerned.

After a period of chaotic circling in the sky above the Howling Forest, these mutant birds actually re-weaved into a team in the air and flew towards the Roaring Tribe.

"What!"

The man on duty repeatedly confirmed the flight path of the mutant birds and was shocked.

You know, there are no ordinary beasts and birds in the world now, and the mutated birds are as fierce as ordinary mutant monsters.

If this group of mutant birds rushes into the Roaring Tribe without any defense, the chaos and losses caused can be imagined.

Thinking of this, the man on duty suddenly looked panicked and quickly sounded the alarm.

The long-lost strange alarm sounded in the entire Roaring Tribe.

When everyone in the Roaring Tribe heard this sound, they were slightly stunned, with a trace of confusion on their faces.

They didn't know what this alarm sound meant.

Until a broadcast sounded throughout the Roaring Tribe, and it also hit everyone's heart hard.

"The beast tide is coming!"
