"Boom——"
Master Fox held a car door in his hand, a wooden handle bomb clenched in his mouth, and with a leap from the parking lot, using the momentum, landed on the car door and glided like with wingsuit, crashing into the campsite, lifting a pickup truck equipped with a machine gun and smashed it.
The weapons used by hunters to capture Spirit Beasts were meaningless against Master Fox.
Despite not being large, Master Fox was extremely fast, with only a white blur visible in a flash, and when standing upright, his arms were as agile as a human's, effortlessly picking up debris from the ground to fend off chemical glue bombs.
Switching instead to burning acid mist and dazing smoke, before getting close to Master Fox, he could even turn mid-air and kick a rocket back with a single move.
The path Master Fox traversed was like a high-speed train charging forward—nothing could stop him.
Not to mention stopping him, sometimes it was even difficult to capture a glimpse of Master Fox.
Master Fox showed overwhelming power and unmatched speed, akin to flood beasts pouring out relentlessly during a dam burst, with none being a match.
The Hunter Corps were beaten back step by step.
Even though they held submachine guns, they were still helpless against that nimble flashing and agile figure.
"Retreat!"
A stern shout came from the rear of the Hunter Corps, simultaneously, a soil-yellow figure dashed swiftly across the grassland, leaping over all traps in a few steps, charging straight toward Master Fox.
Shimmering golden light flashed, drawing an arc silhouette in the air, slashing vertically at Master Fox.
"Buzz——"
The dazzling golden light rushed, Master Fox lifted his paw and grabbed, clutching a strange spear. The spear collided with Master Fox, but the force of the swing hadn't dissipated, transmitting a resonant hum to the spearhead.
Ansheng glanced to the side, seeing the golden spearhead vibrating just twenty centimeters from his cheek, then looked towards the one wielding the spear.
The newcomer was covered in soil-yellow fur, dotted with black round spots, a robust neck extended forward, possessing a fierce dog head, airy ears, gripping tightly in his hands a spear similar to an Egyptian javelin.
Spotted Hyena!
A humanoid Spotted Hyena.
"Clang——"
Ansheng and the Spotted Hyena's gaze locked, merely a brief exchange of glances.
Seeing the failed strike, with no hesitation, the Spotted Hyena kicked out and leaned back, forcibly drawing out the spear clutched by Master Fox, twisting his waist, exerting strength to swing it like a staff sweeping all around, gouging the earth.
"Form up! Plan C for suppression!"
The Spotted Hyena briefly held back Master Fox, his spear spun forming a defensive bouquet to prevent Master Fox from making a sneak attack.
The nearly 2.3-meter-tall Spotted Hyena opened a mouth that could stretch to the back of his ears, commanded coldly with sharp, blade-like eyes fixed on the just-over-50-centimeters-tall Master Fox.
"Awo——"
The Spotted Hyena bared his teeth at the provocation, brandished his spear straight at Master Fox, prompting nearby hunters who could still move to quickly follow the leader's command and form a lineup, intending to execute a suppression formation centered on the leader.
The leader engaged the Spirit Beast up front while his followers sprayed chemical glue from both flanks.
As long as the chemical glue splashed on Master Fox, his defeat was inevitable.
No creature could withstand the pain of having chemical glue stuck on them and forcibly tearing it off, especially for Spirit Beasts with fur, chemical glue was an almost fatal capturing tool.
"Are you guys... their leader?"
Ansheng gradually crouched down, looking at the vigilant-eyed Spotted Hyena and the realigning Hunter Corps, couldn't help but chuckle:
"You guys are really interesting, just wondering if you hear the sound of the ocean when you shake your heads..."
As he spoke, Master Fox in front of the Spotted Hyena yanked the wooden handle bomb from his mouth, calmly tossed it towards the right wing of the Hunter Corps lineup.
At this moment, time seemed to freeze.
The Spotted Hyena's eyes widened in a daze, while the hunters in the right wing wore faces of sheer terror and panic, seeming to watch the wooden handle bomb slowly spin, tracing a parabolic path to land before them.
"Thud——"
The wooden handle bomb hit the ground, smashing on the stony surface, the bomb's body gradually began to expand and deform, fierce firelight and shockwaves boomed forth from its depths!
"Boom——"
"Clack-clack-clack——"
As the firelight spewed forth, Master Fox picked up an assault rifle from the ground, sweeping towards the left wing, brass bullets spinning out of the chamber, striking the Hunter Corps.
Even with plug-and-armor vest protection, taking a barrage head-on, hunters' ribs would inevitably fracture.
"Suppression, eh?"
After emptying one assault rifle, Master Fox used his three tails to scoop up another machine gun from the ground, settling in front of him, calmly squeezing the gun trigger as the Spotted Hyena looked on stunned.
"Clack-clack-clack-clack——"
Scorching firelight spat from the gun muzzle, spewing up clouds of dust, relentlessly pursuing the Spotted Hyena.
"You wouldn't even count as a protected animal, yet you sway in front of Master Fox?"
"Enjoy giving commands, eh? If your mouth is so idle, come take one at the machine gun mouth." Master Fox smirked, smoothing out the ammo belt with his tail, unleashing round after round at the Spotted Hyena.
"Woo-woo-woo——"
Facing the machine gun's rapid fire, the Spotted Hyena whimpered, eyes wide, scrambling to hide behind a rock, looking thoroughly frightened.
Even the overwhelming anxiety made the Spotted Hyena's palms sweat, barely gripping the Egyptian spear in hand, looking downright ghostlike.
Machine gun fire....
Not fatal to him, but the impact of bullets could potentially fracture some bones.
But...
What's the situation now?
They painstakingly infiltrated Xia Country, capturing Spirit Beasts, only to be pursued wielding a machine gun by the beast itself.
WTF? Are you kidding?
God, this joke isn't funny, like Jesus slapping leaves round holes on one's face.
"Whizz——"
A familiar ignition sound rang out, the Spotted Hyena's keen disposable ears instantly realized, swallowed his spit and covered his ears.
"Boom——"
An RPG rocket left a fiery trail, accelerating to about four hundred kilometers per hour, slammed directly onto the rock.
Cracks and burn marks riddled the rock face, flames spread to its sides, some embers scorching the Spotted Hyena's arm, singeing his fur.
"Weren't you all trying to blow me up?"
"Come on! Why're you silent now?"
Having taken over the Hunter Corps' arsenal, Master Fox retrieved another RPG from the truck, aiming towards the Spotted Hyena and fired off a quick rocket.
"You dare come to Xia Country, thumbs up to you."
"If I don't tear you guys apart, Master Fox might as well forget my farming days, come out, I know how to plant seeds in your ground!"
"......"
Listening to Master Fox's taunts, the Spotted Hyena wore a distressed expression, crouching behind the rock, hugging his legs tight, minimizing exposure to avoid the rocket's blast.
Meanwhile, Feng Wenyu and Jin Wanlin atop the hill, their expressions were even more complex.
Like...
Too much like!
Master Fox was mimicking the Fungal Parasitic Beast.
