Li Xiaoyue replied: “I’m fine with the Iron Feathered Bird, but the Bloodclaw Bear was injured for some reason.”

“Injured?” Wang Yuanhang walked to the Blood Claw Bear: “Let me take a look.”

Although Wang Yuanhang is not a fantasy veterinary student, he has fought side by side with the Blade Mantis for so many years, and he still has some knowledge about the medical aspects of fantasy beasts.

At this time, the Bloodclaw Bear’s head was no longer as uncomfortable as before.

Because Li Xiaoyue also wanted to confirm the Blood Claw Bear’s injury, she asked the Blood Claw Bear to lower its head. Next, she gently played with the Blood Claw Bear’s hair.

“There doesn’t seem to be any wounds.”

Li Xiaoyue thought that the Blood Claw Bear was scratched by something, but not only did she not find a wound on the Blood Claw Bear’s head, she didn’t even find any blood.

What’s happening here?

Li Xiaoyue was sure that the Blood Claw Bear was not pretending to be in pain, but how did the Blood Claw Bear get injured when there were no wounds?

“Let me take a look.”

Zeng Zhenghao stepped forward, turned on the flashlight, and carefully observed the head of the Bloodclaw Bear.

Soon, Zeng Zhenghao turned off the flashlight: “There is indeed no wound.”

Wang Yuanhang said: “Captain, what is going on? It can’t be haunted, right?”

Zeng Zhenghao turned to look at Wang Yuanhang: “Actually, you can just say that we may have encountered a ghost-type fantasy beast.”

Jiang Feng thought to himself: “It seems that this matter is really troublesome.”

Since the Bloodclaw Bear suddenly felt unwell without suffering any trauma, the most likely reason is that it suffered a non-physical attack.

Such an attack can be accomplished by a ghost-type phantom beast.

Although ghost-type fantasy beasts cannot be regarded as “ghosts”, the world before Jiang Feng traveled through did not have such bizarre and special existence.

“Captain, even if there is a ghost-type fantasy beast hiding around us, but since it can appear and disappear under our noses, why hasn’t the Bloodclaw Bear suffered too much damage?”

Wang Yuanhang said this not because he wanted the Blood Claw Bear to be more seriously injured. He was just curious about the identity of the culprit.

Zeng Zhenghao glanced at Li Xiaoyue: “Maybe it’s because Xiaoyue summoned the iron-feathered bird in time.”

If there were lord-level ghost-type fantasy beasts hiding around, they would most likely have suffered heavy casualties by now.

However, leaving aside the possibility that the other party might just be testing and not severely injuring the Bloodclaw Bear, such a hidden behavior would most likely mean that the other party’s level would not be much higher than their contracted beast.

Wang Yuanhang nodded.

From the beginning, he never considered the possibility that there were lord-level fantasy beasts around, otherwise everyone would just lie down.

Next, Wang Yuanhang summoned the Blade Mantis.

Even if the enemy has not yet revealed their true colors, they still have to show that they will not tolerate provocation.

Jiang Feng did not rush to summon Blue Nightmare, but used insight into the surroundings, but found nothing.

Although he knew that he could not rely entirely on insight skills, his level was still very low. In this case, he could only rely on insight skills to get through the difficulties first.

“It’s really not ordinary cunning.”

Jiang Feng did not summon Blue Nightmare because he knew that except for Blue Nightmare, other contracted beasts did not have spiritual skills. Therefore, if the enemy was really a ghost-type fantasy beast, then summoning Blue Nightmare to attack at the critical moment would be the best way to do so. is the best choice.

While the enemy did not attack again, Li Xiaoyue took the opportunity to say to Zeng Zhenghao: “Brother Zeng, I have two things to tell you.”

Zeng Zhenghao nodded: “You say.”

Li Xiaoyue said: “Do you remember what I said about the reason why I walked out of the camp in the early morning because I heard a voice?”

Zeng Zhenghao thought for a while and replied: “I remember.”

Li Xiaoyue continued: “Actually, I heard that sound again before. At that time, I suspected that a phantom beast had been following us and was preparing to attack us when the fog started, so I decided to try to lure it out.”

After hearing what Li Xiaoyue said, Wang Yuanhang immediately reacted: “Xiaoyue, is this what you told Jiang Feng before?”

“Yes.”

Wang Yuanhang said: “Then you are a bit out of touch. If you had told us earlier, maybe the Bloodclaw Bear would not have been attacked.”

Jiang Feng explained for Li Xiaoyue: “Brother Wang, Xiaoyue feels that she cannot tell you her guess without definite evidence, otherwise it may make you worry in vain.”

“Oh, we are all our own people, so don’t worry about such trivial matters.”

Of course Wang Yuanhang understands Li Xiaoyue’s concerns, but having said that, Li Xiaoyue’s decision to use herself as bait is too risky. If a powerful fantasy beast really attacks Li Xiaoyue suddenly, it will be difficult for Wang Yuanhang and the others to kill them without knowing it. Went over for a while to help.

Li Xiaoyue said to Wang Yuanhang apologetically: “Sorry, I didn’t think carefully this time.”

Wang Yuanhang quickly waved his hand and said: “Don’t apologize to me, I’m just worried that you are in danger.”

Jiang Feng said nothing more, because he knew that no one was right or wrong in this matter, it was just that everyone looked at the problem from different perspectives.

Seeing Jiang Feng’s silence, Wang Yuanhang stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder: “I guess you are hiding something from me.”

Jiang Feng said: “Brother Wang, I don’t want to cause you any trouble, but I didn’t expect such a thing to happen. I will pay attention next time.”

“It doesn’t matter. If you are unsure about anything next time, just ask me directly.”

Wang Yuanhang showed that he took good care of Jiang Feng.

In fact, he had a good impression of Jiang Feng, because other than Jiang Feng, no A-level genius had spoken to him so politely.

Zeng Zhenghao didn’t pay much attention to the conversation between Jiang Feng and Wang Yuanhang. He just asked Li Xiaoyue: “Xiaoyue, can you describe to me in detail the sound you heard?”

Li Xiaoyue thought for a while and replied: “It was probably a ‘click’ sound. It was not a crisp sound, but a bit dull, like the sound of bones colliding.”

“Yeah?”

Zeng Zhenghao frowned slightly.

Wang Yuanhang asked Zeng Zhenghao: “Captain, is there anything wrong?”

“If Xiaoyue’s description is correct, then this should be the same voice I heard.”

Zeng Zhenghao’s words are astonishing.

“What?”

Sure enough, Wang Yuanhang showed a surprised expression.

“Captain, when did you hear this sound?”

Zeng Zhenghao replied: “Not long before the Bloodclaw Bear was attacked, I originally wanted to remind you to be more vigilant, but I didn’t expect this to happen next.”

“Captain, so it didn’t attack you because it thought you were difficult to deal with?”

Wang Yuanhang expressed his guess.

Zeng Zhenghao nodded and said: “This possibility cannot be ruled out.”

In a place like the misty forest, if they were attacked, the enemy would most likely be a wild fantasy beast.

Due to their living environment, many wild fantasy beasts are more sensitive to crises than contracted beasts of the same level, and they can roughly tell who poses the greatest threat to them.

Wang Yuanhang asked Zeng Zhenghao with a serious face: “Captain, how should we retaliate?”

Although Wang Yuanhang still doesn’t know the enemy’s level, as long as it is not a lord-level fantasy beast, they can try to touch it. If they can kill it, they can kill it. If they can’t kill it, they can also find a way to retreat.

Although concealing one’s whereabouts is also a tactic, what Wang Yuanhang hates the most is people who hide their heads and show their tails. What’s more, the Bloodclaw Bear is also under attack, so he can’t sit idly by.

Zeng Zhenghao said slowly: “Since the opponent takes the initiative to attack, this battle is definitely unavoidable. However, now that the enemy is hidden and we are clear, if we act rashly, we are likely to be defeated one by one.”

Zeng Zhenghao’s thinking was very clear. Since they couldn’t avoid this battle, they had to find a way to deal with this phantom beast hiding in the dark.

Otherwise, when they find and fight the Fire Feather Bird, this phantom beast is likely to reap the benefits.

But having said that, this phantom beast has not shown its true form until now, which proves that its stealth ability cannot be underestimated, so it is absolutely impossible to blindly search for its traces.

“Captain, have you already thought of a way to deal with it?”

Wang Yuanhang has always had confidence in Zeng Zhenghao.

Although Jiang Feng is a genius with A-level talent, he is still a novice beast master younger than Li Xiaoyue. Therefore, Wang Yuanhang believes that the person most likely to come up with a way to break the situation must be Zeng Zhenghao.

“Not yet, but take a look.” Zeng Zhenghao unfolded the map and put his index finger on one of the places: “My idea is to go to this place first.”

Of course, he knew that he should find ways to improve the morale of the team at this time, but there is a saying that goes well: “One burst of energy, then it will weaken, and three times it will be exhausted.”

Zeng Zhenghao can speak impassionedly, but the key problem is that the enemy has not yet appeared. If everyone’s emotions are high at the beginning, but no trace of the enemy is found, then when the battle actually begins, , maybe everyone’s fighting spirit will become less sufficient.

“Brother Zeng, this should be a canyon that is not very far away, right?”

The speaker was Jiang Feng.

Zeng Zhenghao said: “Yes, I didn’t want to go here originally, but now that the situation is special, I think we should change our course of action immediately.”

Wang Yuanhang said “Oh”: “Captain, I understand, are you planning to use the narrow environment to restrict the movements of this mysterious phantom beast?”

After being a teammate for so many years, Wang Yuanhang thinks he knows Zeng Zhenghao’s character and habits very well.

“Yes, we still know too little about the environment of the misty forest. When the enemy is in darkness and we are clear, it is more beneficial to us to shrink the battlefield.”

Zeng Zhenghao confirmed Wang Yuanhang’s guess.

Jiang Feng asked Zeng Zhenghao: “Brother Zeng, if there happen to be other phantom beasts in this canyon, what should we do then?”

It’s not that Jiang Feng was being mean on purpose, he was just used to thinking about the worst in advance, because this might help him prepare for a rainy day.

“I said you can’t think better of it.”

Wang Yuanhang bumped Jiang Feng’s arm with his elbow.

Jiang Feng smiled “honestly”: “I just remembered it suddenly.”

Zeng Zhenghao said: “Jiang Feng is right. Although we can use the terrain of the canyon to restrict the movement of this mysterious phantom beast, at the same time, we also have to bear the risk of being attacked by other phantom beasts.”

Generally speaking, if there is no interest or deep hatred, then wild fantasy beasts that do not know each other will rarely start fighting as soon as they meet. Therefore, Zeng Zhenghao has never thought about leading this mysterious fantasy beast to other fantasy beasts. On the territory, they will both suffer losses and finally reap the benefits.

Putting aside the possibility of backstabbing, many beast masters who don’t know each other will work together temporarily to deal with powerful phantom beasts that they accidentally encounter in the wilderness.

Thinking about it conversely, since the beast masters will do this, then under the same situation, wild fantasy beasts that do not know each other will most likely kill the beast masters who intrude into their territory first.

Immediately afterwards, Zeng Zhenghao said to others: “But we must find a way to turn passivity into initiative. Rather than staying here, we should take certain risks to break the deadlock.”

Wang Yuanhang said: “I agree with the captain’s idea. I don’t want something to happen unexpectedly when dealing with the Fire Bird.”

Bi Hongcheng said: “The captain is right.”

Li Xiaoyue turned to look at Jiang Feng. Although Wang Yuanhang and Bi Hongcheng both supported Zeng Zhenghao’s proposal, she and Jiang Feng must also express their attitudes.

Jiang Feng noticed Li Xiaoyue’s gaze, so he expressed his thoughts: “Based on the current situation, staying here and waiting for the fog to dissipate is the next best option. Only taking the initiative to solve the worries is the best option.”

Wang Yuanhang said to Jiang Feng: “I knew we had the same idea.”

Jiang Feng smiled and said nothing.

Next, Li Xiaoyue said to the others: “I don’t have any different opinions.”

Zeng Zhenghao nodded and said: “Okay, it won’t be too late. Let’s take action now.”

Wang Yuanhang asked Zeng Zhenghao: “Captain, do I still need to go to the front with Blade Mantis to investigate the situation later?”

Zeng Zhenghao said: “No need, you just stay in the team.”

Although the Blade Mantis is very fast, Zeng Zhenghao is worried that the mysterious beast hidden in the dark is faster. If Wang Yuanhang is attacked and seriously injured before returning to the team, then their mission will basically be considered half a failure. .

Wang Yuanhang responded: “Understood.”

Zeng Zhenghao then said to Wang Yuanhang: “When you take action later, pay attention to adapting to changes.”

Wang Yuanhang grinned: “Don’t worry, captain, I know what’s going on.”

Zeng Zhenghao really hoped that Wang Yuanhang knew what was going on.

Although Wang Yuanhang is very efficient, his overly lively personality sometimes makes his performance unstable.

Of course Zeng Zhenghao could not change Wang Yuanhang’s character. He could only remind Wang Yuanhang not to be careless.

Next, Zeng Zhenghao said to Bi Hongcheng: “Acheng, I still have to trouble you and the rock-armored beast to walk at the front.”

“no problem.”

Just three words are enough to reflect Bi Hongcheng’s confidence in the rock-armored beast.
