"Get down here! I’m going to eat you!" Man Lie roared up at Huang Yi with such ferocity that, despite the distance, the thundering sonic waves still made Huang Yi’s ears rumble, stirring his blood fiercely. If he were to fall, he would likely be devoured alive by Man Lie, leaving not even his bones behind!
The hatred stemming from the murder of one’s child is the deepest kind of enmity. No one can endure it, and Man Lie would never let Huang Yi go.
"Swoosh!" Just then, Man Lie picked up a massive rock and hurled it forcefully at Huang Yi up in the sky!
Huang Yi quickly dodged, narrowly missing the boulder, but the fierce vigor still grazed him painfully. Had it hit him, he would probably have been severely injured and fallen.
"Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!" At that moment, Man Lie started hurling rocks at Huang Yi frantically. The stones flew past Huang Yi like cannonballs, impossible to guard against.
Huang Yi flapped his wings laboriously, dodging back and forth. The slightest mistake could cost him his life, as Man Lie’s power was truly terrifying.
"Thump! Thump!" Just then, a vast rushing sound suddenly came from ahead, carrying the force of a landslide under the night sky, reverberating with a thunderous roar!
Huang Yi looked ahead and saw an incredibly magnificent waterfall; a wide river was raging under the bright moonlight, displaying the immense power of nature. The vast water plummeted from the high cliffs, crashing into the dark abyss below, producing a deafening roar. If a person were to fall from such a height, they would undoubtedly be smashed to pieces!
However, to Huang Yi, this waterfall was a lifesaver. He flapped his wings vigorously, using all his strength to fly at full speed towards the opposite bank of the waterfall. Under the huge moon, his silhouette cut a rapidly flying dark shadow.
Man Lie, on the ground, had to stop at the edge of the waterfall, watching Huang Yi’s figure grow more distant and roaring in anger. He picked up all the stones nearby and threw them at Huang Yi!
Huang Yi narrowly dodged the stones, straining with all his might to fly to the other side! Once past, all would be well. If he failed to make it, he and Little White Cat would plummet into the abyss below the waterfall, shattering their bodies.
Three seconds! Huang Yi had only three seconds left in his transformation time! And the bank of the waterfall was getting closer and closer!
Two seconds!
One second!
The transformation time finally ended, and Huang Yi’s wings disappeared as he reverted to his Beast King Form, beginning to fall rapidly.
However, he was still over 20 meters away from the shore!
Behind him, Man Lie watched Huang Yi’s figure nervously, hoping he would fall into the abyss and die!
Relying on inertia, Huang Yi continued to sprint forward for more than ten meters, but he was already too low and was about to fall!
However, there was a tree on the opposite bank with a branch extending in their direction!
Seizing the opportunity, Huang Yi quickly grabbed the branch! With renewed leverage, he made an effortful leap!
At last, his body soared again, jumping a small distance forward and barely landing on the other side of the waterfall!
If he were even slightly slower, he and Little White Cat would have fallen into the waterfall!
Huang Yi turned to look at the opposite bank. Man Lie was still there, watching him, his roars of anger faintly carrying over, yet unable to pursue him any longer.
Now, Huang Yi and Little White Cat were completely safe!
"Sister, let’s go. Mother’s vengeance is finally complete!" Huang Yi stroked Little White Cat’s head, affectionately licking it, and the battle-worn heart finally settled down.
A period of tranquility lay ahead.
Holding Little White Cat, Huang Yi recognized the direction and started walking northward.
The Beast God had once said there was a Holy Lake to the north, with a pure Holy Aura that could awaken Little White Cat’s Divine Demon Bloodline. And this wide waterfall might very well be flowing from the lake; by following the waterfall upstream, they should be able to find it.
As Huang Yi walked, he began to go through his spoils of war.
He first checked the two pieces of equipment dropped by the Guard Captain.
The Guard Captain had dropped two pieces of equipment; one was a pair of Green Gear level boots, wearable at Level 20, which were rather ordinary, and the other was his Wolf Fang Club!
[Bloodthirsty Mace] (Blue Gear, Weapon - One-Handed Mace)
Close Combat Attack Power: 290-315
Strength +100
Constitution +44
Ignore 3% of the target’s defense
Durability: 280/280
Required Level: 20
Equipment Score: 144
Item Description: One of the violent weapons, suitable for warriors who worship strength.
This Wolf Fang Club is a brutal weapon! It is most suitable for Huang Yi, whose Judge Class specializes in brutal weapons, using which can increase attack power by an additional 10%. Brutal weapons can usually be recognized by their appearance, often being heavy and fierce.
This weapon is not bad at all, its main attribute is outright strength, and it’s also Blue Gear. In the current player community, where Green Gear weapons are the norm, blue weapons are considered relatively high-end equipment.
This is the first piece of Blue Gear that Huang Yi has obtained, but he is only level 19 right now and hasn’t reached the required level to wear it, so he can only store it in the storage ring for now.
Next, Huang Yi took out the items dropped by the Barbaric Hammer, and these were the richest spoils of the evening!
Firstly, Huang Yi took out a pair of bracers.
[Crimson Gloves] (Purple Gear, Armor - Bracer)
Physical Defense: 80
Constitution +80
Strength +80
Health Points limit +3%
Attack comes with a 1% bloodsuck effect
Durability: 520/520
Required Level: 30
Equipment Score: 168
Item Description: A fine pair of bracers that provide both offense and defense.
The Barbaric Hammer, truly worthy of being a Leader-level Boss, dropped a precious piece of Purple Gear armor!
Currently, only very high-end players possess one or two pieces of Purple Gear; among the hundreds of players at Wind Forest Stronghold, not even one owns Purple Gear, which indicates how valuable this equipment is!
However, this piece of equipment has an even higher level requirement; one must be at level 30 to wear it, which is far beyond Huang Yi’s current level.
Next, Huang Yi turned his attention to the most significant reward—the Barbaric Hammer’s own weapon!
This is a weapon coveted by all players in Wind Forest Stronghold, and it is one of the two great Purple Martial weapons there. Even the name of the Boss, Barbaric Hammer, comes from this weapon!
[Barbaric Hammer] (Purple Gear, Weapon - One-Handed Hammer)
Close Combat Attack Power: 576-612
Strength +200
Attack Power +5%
Attacks trigger a dizziness effect, with a 5% chance to stun the enemy for 3 seconds
Attack carries a Corpse Shatter effect; enemies killed will become chunks, unable to be resurrected by revival skills
Durability: 520/520
Required Level: 30
Equipment Score: 288
Item description: A violent weapon filled with barbaric strength, with the power to split mountains and earth. Enemies killed by the Barbaric Hammer will not find their bodies intact.
