Chapter 212 Heavy Casualties
However, the Golden Eagle King could not be easily tricked. Its sharp eyes instantly saw through the intentions of Lei Ling and others. Instead of retreating, it let out a sharp cry and sped up to pounce on those subordinates.
It spread its huge wings and flapped them hard, and a powerful airflow swept towards its subordinates again.
Lei Ling's men were naturally not as strong as him. Faced with the Golden Eagle King's sudden accelerated attack, they had no time to make an effective response.
Only a few shrill screams were heard, and the bodies of his men were like kites with broken strings, being hit hard and sent flying by the wings of the Golden Eagle King.
Their bodies drew an arc in the air and then fell heavily to the ground, their life or death unknown.
Lei Ling watched his men suffer such heavy losses, and the anger and despair in his heart reached its peak. His eyes were bloodshot, his teeth were chattering, and his hands were tightly gripping the sword, as if he wanted to crush the hilt in his hand.
At this moment, he is no longer the calm and rational archer, but an avenger who is blinded by hatred and anger.
He rushed towards the Golden Eagle King regardless of everything, with only one thought in his mind: no matter what the cost, he must avenge his men.
Lei Ling's heart was filled with sorrow and determination. He brandished the sword in his hand with great vigor, but every time he blocked it, his palm became numb.
Having lost the assistance of several capable subordinates, he now seemed increasingly vulnerable under the fierce attack of the Golden Eagle King, like a lone boat in the stormy waves, in danger of being destroyed at any time.
The claws of the Golden Eagle King were like sharp blades, cutting through the air again and again, making sharp whistling sounds, and mercilessly leaving deep blood marks on Lei Ling's body. The blood instantly dyed his clothes red, dripping onto the ground, blooming into tragic blood flowers.
But there was an unyielding fire burning in Lei Ling's eyes. He gritted his teeth, endured the severe pain of the wound, and never retreated a single step. Every time he swung the sword, he poured all his strength and anger into it, as if he wanted to use the sword in his hand to break the desperate situation before him.
However, as time went on, his physical strength disappeared bit by bit like sand in an hourglass, his steps became heavier and heavier, and his sword moves became slower and slower.
Lei Ling was extremely anxious. He looked around and saw several of his men either lying on the ground with their lives unknown or seriously injured and unconscious, unable to fight back. His heart was filled with sadness.
The bow and arrow that could have turned the tide of battle was now blown away by the strong wind, out of reach! He knew that if this continued, he would probably die here today, becoming a ghost under the claws of the Golden Eagle King.
There was a fierce light flashing in the eyes of the Golden Eagle King, and his attack became more and more fierce, vowing to kill Lei Ling.
Lei Ling seized the opportunity, looked at his men with guilt, and suddenly pulled out a small black bottle from his arms, throwing it to the ground with his last bit of strength.
The moment the small black bottle touched the ground, there was a muffled "puff" sound, followed by a burst of thick, pungent smoke that instantly enveloped the Golden Eagle King like a surging tide.
The Golden Eagle King was enraged by this sudden change. He flapped his huge wings desperately, trying to disperse the annoying smoke. The wind was howling and the smoke was rolling, but it still blocked his vision.
When the smoke gradually dissipated, the Golden Eagle King looked around. There was no trace of Lei Ling. Only a messy battlefield and several of his men lying on the ground remained.
"Damn it! He actually let him escape!"
The Golden Eagle King raised his head to the sky and let out a long, angry cry. The sound echoed through the valley, shaking the surrounding trees.
It was so angry that it paced back and forth, its claws scratching deep grooves in the ground, and the anger in its eyes seemed to set the forest on fire.
The seriously injured people who were left behind by Lei Ling were already frightened to death. They stared at the direction where Lei Ling disappeared, their eyes full of despair and disbelief.
They never thought that the boss who seemed to be loyal and righteous on weekdays would abandon them at the critical moment of life and death.
After a moment of panic, several people lay on the spot, their bodies as stiff as wooden sculptures, not daring to breathe, trying to cheat the Golden Eagle King by pretending to be dead.
However, the Golden Eagle King could not be deceived so easily. He had just been teased by Lei Ling and had no place to vent his anger. How could he let go of these accomplices? Even if they did not move, the Golden Eagle King could feel their faint breath.
It strode up to several people, stretched out its claws, and dragged one of them several feet away, then threw him high into the air and pecked him down with its sharp beak, as if only this could vent the anger in its heart.
On the other side, Lei Ling used his lightness skills to escape desperately through the mountains and forests. His figure was like a ghost, quickly passing through trees and rocks. The wind whistled in his ears, but he did not dare to stop for a moment, and even did not dare to look back to see if the Golden Eagle King was chasing him.
The images of his men's tragic deaths kept appearing in his mind, and their screams before death echoed in his ears. Each scream was like a sharp blade, piercing his heart, making him more and more frightened while fleeing.
At this time, not far behind him, Murong Ling'er followed silently. She was light and graceful, like a fairy walking on the clouds, her clothes fluttering in the wind, without making any sound.
She saw that Lei Ling was fleeing towards Leizhou City, and thought to herself that Fei Yu must be recuperating in Leizhou City at this moment.
Murong Linger's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a faint sneer: "Since you are here, it's a good time to meet her."
Just as I was thinking this, I saw Lei Ling in front of me suddenly shake and stop!
Lei Ling really couldn't run anymore. The wild run along the way almost exhausted all his physical strength. He bent down, supported his knees with his hands, and gasped for breath. Sweat slid down his forehead like rain and dripped onto the ground under his feet.
He looked up into the distance and saw the border of Leizhou Mountains right in front of him. He felt a little relieved, thinking that he was finally going to escape from this dangerous place, so he dared to stop for a moment.
After Lei Ling staggered to a stop, he immediately took out a flare from his arms and threw it into the sky with all his might.
The flare was like a burning meteor, dragging a long tail flame, piercing the sky and exploding in the sky, instantly lighting up the sky and emitting a dazzling red light, illuminating the entire mountain forest in red.
At the same time, in Leizhou City, Jingya was standing in the courtyard looking up at the sky. When she saw the familiar red light, her face turned pale in an instant, and an ominous premonition surged in her heart.
Without time to think, she hurriedly turned and rushed into the room, anxiously saying to Feiyu who was resting with her eyes closed: "Witch, something terrible has happened! The plan has failed, Boss Lei failed to successfully capture the Golden Eagle King, and... and our side suffered heavy casualties."
Feiyu suddenly opened her eyes, a trace of panic and anger flashed in her eyes. She pursed her lips tightly, her face so gloomy that it seemed as if water could drip out.
After a moment's silence, she slowly stood up and looked towards the Leizhou Mountains. Her eyes revealed deep hatred as she said bitterly, "Let's leave this place immediately. If we're any later, it might be too late."
After saying that, the master and his servants quickly took action, hurriedly packing their bags. A moment later, they hurriedly left Leizhou City and disappeared at the end of the street.
