163: Chapter 163 The King's Air Force
What... what was all this?
Were the brain circuits of the Yao Beasts in the Desolate Ruins all this... peculiar?
He looked for help toward the cave entrance, at Lin Qingzhi, who was standing there with her arms crossed, wearing an "everything is under control" expression.
Lin Qingzhi gave him a faint smile, then silently mouthed three words to him.
"Accept it."
Fine.
Mo Wen sighed helplessly again.
Since the Ice Phoenix Empress had spoken, he would reluctantly accept this thick-skinned... new "employee."
It was perfect; he wouldn't have to walk himself when going out in the future.
"Ahem."
Mo Wen cleared his throat, imitating Lin Qingzhi's "Emperor" demeanor from before, and spoke to the Black Rock Demonic Rhinoceros, which was still kneeling on the ground, in a tone that tried to sound as inscrutable as possible:
"I have seen your 'loyalty'."
"I have also recognized your 'courage'."
"From this day forward, you shall be the second 'warrior' under my command."
"Why have you not yet offered your thanks?"
Upon hearing Mo Wen's words, which were full of "grace" and "recognition," the Black Rock Demonic Rhinoceros's massive body shuddered violently!
Immediately after, a surge of "ecstasy" and "gratitude," more intense than any before, instantly overwhelmed it!
From its huge eyes, which resembled blood-colored lanterns, two streams of scalding "heroic tears" actually flowed out!
"Thank... Thank you, Your Majesty!!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your heavenly grace!!"
It began to kowtow frantically to Mo Wen again!
The force was so great that it knocked huge, deep pits into the hard ground!
Watching it in this display of "loyalty," Mo Wen couldn't help but let his mouth twitch slightly.
He began to doubt his life a little.
Did he really have some kind of "Emperor's aura" he didn't even know about?
...
Just like that, under the "instigation" of Lin Qingzhi and surrounded by two over-imaginative "simpleton" underlings, Mo Wen, this "novice Yao King," began his "territory inspection" journey, which was full of "legendary" colors.
Their next target was the White Bone Vulture King, who occupied the "White Bone Abyss" to the east!
According to the "Employee Number One," the Rotting Bone Hyena, whose introduction was full of "awe," that White Bone Vulture was the undisputed "overlord of the sky" in this area!
Its speed was as fast as lightning!
Its sharp claws were enough to tear through steel!
Most importantly, it was extremely cunning!
It never engaged in head-on combat with any enemy stronger than itself.
It would only, like the most brilliant assassin, circle high in the sky, using its eagle-like sharp eyes to quietly wait for the moment its prey revealed a flaw!
Then, it would deliver a fatal blow!
When Mo Wen brought his "ground forces" and arrived in a grand manner at the "White Bone Abyss," which was piled high with the skeletons of countless giant beasts—
"Screech—!!!"
An extremely shrill, piercing cry full of warning and disdain rang out from the bottomless abyss!
Immediately following, a giant vulture with a wingspan of over twenty meters, composed entirely of white bones, with two clusters of ghostly green flames burning in its eye sockets, soared up from the abyss!
It circled a thousand meters in the air, using its cold, scrutinizing gaze to look down upon Mo Wen's group, the "uninvited guests" who dared to trespass into its territory!
Its gaze lingered for a moment on the massive body of the Black Rock Demonic Rhinoceros, a hint of wariness flashing in its eyes.
But soon, its gaze fell upon the "two-legged beast" who was surrounded and protected by the Black Rock Demonic Rhinoceros and the Rotting Bone Hyena like stars surrounding the moon.
A hint of anthropomorphic "confusion" flashed in its eyes.
A "two-legged beast" that looked weak and fragile could actually make a Black Rock Demonic Rhinoceros, a notoriously "simple-minded" creature, willing to submit?
Interesting.
However, could just this make it, the White Bone Vulture King, bow its head?
That was simply wishful thinking!
It was the overlord of the sky!
As long as it wanted to leave, no existence in this world could keep it!
"Human, take your pets and get out of my territory!"
A cold, arrogant mental fluctuation resounded in Mo Wen's mind.
"Otherwise, die!"
Mo Wen looked up at the "feathered beast" circling in the sky, full of "superiority," and frowned slightly.
This guy was a bit arrogant.
Moreover, it was flying too high.
Although he could fly too, his speed definitely wasn't as fast as it was.
Fighting it would be a bit difficult.
Maybe he should just forget it?
However, the moment this thought occurred to him, he felt a gaze full of "encouragement" and "expectation" beside him.
He turned to look.
He saw Lin Qingzhi smiling at him, a gentle smile that would make any man go crazy.
The look in her eyes seemed to say: "I believe in you, you can definitely do it."
Mo Wen: "..."
Fine.
Since his wife had spoken, he had no choice but to take down this "feathered beast" that didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth and make soup out of it today!
But how should he fight it?
Got it!
A hint of cunning flashed in Mo Wen's eyes.
He beckoned with his finger toward the White Bone Vulture that was still circling in the sky.
Then, with a thought.
"Buzz—buzz—buzz—!"
Over a hundred Blood God Children of various shapes and sizes surged out from behind him, covering the sky and earth!
But this time, they didn't scatter in all directions as they had before.
Instead, under the control of his will, they instantly formed a huge and dense encirclement net like a well-trained "air force unit"!
Then, they swept toward the White Bone Vulture, which was still feeling self-satisfied, covering the sky and earth!
When the White Bone Vulture saw that "cloud of mosquitoes," a hint of disdain flashed in its eyes.
A bunch of trash that hadn't even reached "Essence Rank"!
They wanted to hurt this King?
It flapped its wings and prepared to climb, using its proud speed to toy with this group of "Little Bugs" who didn't know life from death!
However, the next second, it couldn't laugh anymore.
It discovered with horror that the "cloud of mosquitoes" seemed to possess independent "intelligence," instantly predicting all of its flight trajectories!
No matter if it went left!
Or right!
Whether it dove!
Or climbed!
That "cloud of mosquitoes," like maggots attached to bones, could make the most perfect response at the first opportunity!
Sealing off all of its escape routes!
It was like a prisoner locked in by countless "eyes" from three hundred and sixty degrees without any blind spots!
No matter how it struggled, it couldn't escape the net woven by the "King's" will!
"This... this is impossible!!"
The White Bone Vulture King's arrogant, "superior" mindset completely collapsed at this moment!
In its simple mind, a scene of "shock" and "fear" played out in an uncontrollable fit of self-brainwashing!
"He... he is not attacking me!"
"He is showing me his... authority!"
"He is using this most direct, most unreasonable way to tell me that under the sky he controls, my proud speed is completely worthless!"
"He is the... God of the sky!"
"And I am just an arrogant... clown!"
"Thump!"
The White Bone Vulture King, having figured all this out, no longer had any desire to resist.
It folded its wings and, like a fighter jet that had lost all power, fell straight down from a thousand meters in the air!
"Boom!"
It smashed heavily in front of Mo Wen, creating a huge, deep pit in the hard ground.
Then, it crawled out of the pit and lowered its noble head, which belonged to the "overlord of the sky," deeply.
A mental fluctuation full of "submission" and "awe" resounded in Mo Wen's mind.
"God of the sky... is above!"
"Little Yao, White Bone, is willing to offer my humble... loyalty to Your Majesty!"
"From this day forward, I am willing to become Your Majesty's... eyes that patrol the horizon!"
Mo Wen: "..."
Another one gone crazy.
