Free Web NovelChapter 1022: Chapter 651: Dread of the Abyss
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Above Du Yu’s head, the continuous sound of loud thuds echoed; it was the sound of the army approaching!
"Master Yu." Ji Yaoyao and Chen Leng arrived galloping on their horses.
"Meow~" The Desolate Silver Lynx landed directly behind Du Yu, lowering its massive beast head and gently nudging Du Yu’s crown with its jaw.
Such a sight left Ji Yaoyao dumbfounded.
Just now, in the battle on the upper levels, both Ji Yaoyao and Chen Leng had witnessed the brutality of the Desolate Silver Lynx!
Even now, this silver fierce beast was full of malice, making people worry it might suddenly open its bloody maw and tear everyone apart.
Clearly, they were supposed to be allies, yet such fear toward the Desolate Silver Lynx was palpable.
One could imagine how ferocious Lord Baojun’s temperament and actions were.
Yet, this was the very creature that was affectionately nuzzling its chin against Du Yu’s head...
The contrast was indeed stark.
"Whimper~" Hu Xiaoyan sat crouched on Du Yu’s shoulder, moaning quietly.
The fiery fox head was similarly buried in the silver fur, suffering an unwarranted calamity, bearing the heavy affection Sister Baojun had for Du Yu.
"How are you guys? Are you hurt?" Du Yu raised his hand, trying to push away the silver beast’s head, examining the few companions closely.
Chen Leng shook his head: "The Lynx took good care of us; we’re fine."
Du Yu chuckled, rubbing Lord Baojun’s silver fur: "It’s not necessarily that she was taking care of you; it could just be pure murderous intent."
"Meow." The Desolate Silver Lynx seemed a bit displeased, noticing that the war axe in Du Yu’s hand was still quivering, she brought over a long tail.
"What about you, Yaoyao, did you open the blade?" Du Yu looked at Ji Yaoyao.
The girl’s small face turned bitter, pouting silently.
"Squeak squeak~!" The Earth Treasure Mouse on her shoulder was unhappy.
The little creature looked at Du Yu, angrily waving its little claws, continuously squeaking.
You, this guy, why do you always poke at my master’s sore spot?
You are not kind!
"Tu Baobao, don’t argue, he’s concerned about me." Ji Yaoyao lifted her shoulder, causing the Earth Treasure Mouse to bounce up and down.
"Hm? Is that what you want?" Du Yu felt the silver long tail wrapped around his wrist, as well as the handle of the Fire Age Axe.
He pondered for a moment and then let go: "You can use the Fire Age Axe for now, once this phase is done, I’ll go get you a scythe."
The silver long tail waved the Fire Age Axe in mid-air, scattering sparks.
Shasha’s voice came through the contract, imprinted in Du Yu’s mind: "Small."
Du Yu: "..." freeweɓnøvel.com
It’s at least two meters in size, how can this be small?
Of course, if you’re comparing it to the Lion Bone Scythe’s size, then indeed there aren’t many larger ones in the world.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The sound of army boots stomping the Giant Tree grew ever closer, shaking the soul.
Du Yu tightened his grip on the Orange Juice Bow, and shouted: "Let’s go, continue the descent; we need to catch up with the vanguard!"
Ji Yaoyao and Chen Leng immediately fell, with the silver lightning following closely, the tail tip wrapped around the buzzing Fire Age Axe, searching all around for enemies.
Du Yu’s mind reminded him: "The Fire Age Axe is powered by Fire Demon Breath."
"I know." The Desolate Silver Lynx replied impatiently.
Du Yu pursed his lips; she was just nuzzling me, now she’s turning cold so fast.
Rogue cat!
Desolate Silver Lynx: "Du Yu."
"Hm?"
"Next time you want to think about things, don’t do it through the contract."
Du Yu’s face stiffened, having just landed on a Giant Tree, his steps slightly stumbling.
The Desolate Silver Lynx looked up at Du Yu, her fierce beast eyes emitting a peculiar glint: "You haven’t been my mattress for a long time."
"Alright." Du Yu scratched his head awkwardly, "After this big exam, after the exam."
"Hmph." The Desolate Silver Lynx turned, looking below, darting through.
The burning Fire Age Axe cast a long line of flame in the dim Bottomless, creating a scene of eerie beauty.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
As the squad continuously sped up, the exhilarating sound of war drums above grew increasingly distant.
Ringing sounds echoed as Zhuang Mengdie constantly searched for the ones who slipped through the cracks.
The first task of the vanguard was to descend.
As the male soldier mentioned before, the vanguard would not be held up by the battle group.
This led to a considerable number of Cold Beasts appearing along Du Yu and the others’ path.
However, most of these Cold Beasts were injured, some severely, others on the brink of death.
The Desolate Silver Lynx went on a killing spree!
Lord Baojun rolled the Fire Age Axe, frenetically dealing the final blows, tearing enemies apart, feeling the life of Cold Beasts slip away under her claws; the feeling was indescribably satisfying.
In some ways, the Desolate Silver Lynx and Lin Shiwei were very similar.
Both filled to the brim with a desire to conquer.
The only difference being Lin Shiwei is human, governed by societal rules and internal moral constraints.
As a fierce beast, the Desolate Silver Lynx had no such burdens; her only principle was Du Yu.
To be blunt, in the eyes of the Desolate Silver Lynx, Chen Leng and others looked no different from Cold Beasts.
She could coexist peacefully with Chen Leng and occasionally help them solely because they were Du Yu’s teammates.
If Du Yu happened to change his mind, declaring them enemies, the Desolate Silver Lynx would commence a slaughter without hesitation.
Although the Desolate Silver Lynx’s fur was silvery grey, her world was black and white.
"Whoosh!" A Fire Arrow pierced through the gloomy abyss, causing Du Yu to frown deeply at the struck Wind Trace Steed, "Captain Zhao."
