Facts prove: Even if it's Hidden Dragon's disciple, a legendary profession user like Flame-Wreathed Swordsman, Hidden Dragon, when he came to Zhang Yue's place, could only help pick up trash.
However, just as Hidden Dragon opened the first box.
In front, suddenly there was a force, gushing forth.
BOOM!
Accompanied by a loud noise.
As if a mechanism had been triggered, countless Desperados formed a great army, swarming down the street.
Hidden Dragon, who was opening the box, was stunned.
"I just opened a box, is it really necessary…"
Frightened, Hidden Dragon quickly closed the box again.
But, obviously it was already useless.
Those Desperados, as if they didn't care about their lives, swept in.
Seeing that running away was already too late.
Hidden Dragon hurriedly held his head with both hands, preparing to be devoured by those Desperados.
At the critical moment, it was Armageddon Black Dragon that descended from the sky, forming a defensive wall, blocking that group of Desperados.
The next moment, opening its bloody mouth wide, a breath of dragon flame gushed out, swallowing that group of Desperados entirely.
With the harvesting of the Apex Predator, they quickly exterminated that group of Desperados.
When Hidden Dragon opened his eyes again, he saw only the corpses of the Desperados lying in front.
He couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
Next, sweeping clean the contents of several nearby boxes, and then bringing everything obtained before Zhang Yue, handing them to Zhang Yue, not daring to pocket even a single gold coin.
Facts prove: These treasure chests were indeed traps.
Each time a box was opened, it would attract a group of monsters.
Zhang Yue was responsible for killing monsters, Hidden Dragon was responsible for opening boxes.
The two worked together, quite in sync.
While opening boxes, they advanced toward the depths of the City of Mist.
With Zhang Yue's killing speed, it wouldn't even take ten minutes to massacre the entire city.
So in a short time, the two had already reached the central area of the City of Mist.
Only to see here, a magic array was located.
Within the array, emitted a pillar of red light about seven or eight meters high, within the light beam, something seemed to be hidden.
Hidden Dragon felt inexplicably excited, wanting to approach the array.
Just at this time.
Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!
Around the magic array, several space cracks emerged.
Next, from each crack, appeared a Devouring Beast.
Again, Devouring Beasts.
Just like the ones Zhang Yue had previously encountered.
The Devouring Beasts now, were initially also lord-level.
And this time, as soon as they appeared, it was Five of them.
The moment the Devouring Beasts appeared, Hidden Dragon was frightened into falling to the ground, and continuously retreated.
He seemed to be extremely afraid of the Devouring Beasts.
Moreover, these Devouring Beasts, upon seeing Hidden Dragon, instantly erupted with powerful fury.
ROAR! ROAR! ROAR! ROAR!
They roared, suddenly charging toward Hidden Dragon.
Yes, that's right, they bypassed Zhang Yue, who was closer to them, and instead charged directly at Hidden Dragon who was farther away.
Hidden Dragon hurriedly drew his sword and stood up, preparing to face the enemy.
However, at this time, Zhang Yue did not make a move, just quietly stood to the side, watching the battle.
Swoosh!
In Hidden Dragon's hand, the longsword ignited in flames.
Facing the Five Devouring Beasts, he released Flame Slash, forming a wall of scorching fire in front.
Unexpectedly, that group of Devouring Beasts passed directly through the fire wall and pounced at Hidden Dragon.
Hidden Dragon swung his sword with all his strength to slash the Devouring Beasts, but the seemingly powerful attacks landing on the Devouring Beasts' bodies caused only minimal damage.
Instead, one of the Devouring Beasts rammed into Hidden Dragon, instantly sending him flying.
Hidden Dragon, who fell to the ground, had red lightning flowing across his body, and immediately let out a miserable scream as if in unbearable pain.
Before he could catch his breath, several Devouring Beasts followed up and launched a siege attack on Hidden Dragon.
In front of several lord-level Devouring Beasts, Hidden Dragon appeared completely powerless, being beaten into constant retreat.
And the red lightning on his body continuously corroded Hidden Dragon's body, and this lightning was like iron chains, continuously contracting, binding Hidden Dragon.
This scene was seen by Cherry beside Zhang Yue.
Cherry couldn't help but curiously ask, "Boss, what is that lightning on him? Why didn't we trigger this attack effect when we fought the Devouring Beasts before?"
Zhang Yue said, "Maybe he likes bondage~"
Under the siege of several Devouring Beasts, Hidden Dragon wailed toward Zhang Yue, "Brother, quick... come help! Help me, I can't beat them!"
Zhang Yue crossed his arms, quietly standing in place, like watching a show, casually said, "A fourth-transcendence epic-class profession user, can't beat a few monsters of the same level, that shouldn't happen."
"Could I be faking not being able to beat them?", Hidden Dragon found it a bit ridiculous, "Come on, bro, what do you mean by this? I can't hold on any longer!"
Zzzz~
That endless lightning, like divine punishment, continuously tormented Hidden Dragon.
Seemingly unable to win, but the few Devouring Beasts also didn't deal substantial damage to Hidden Dragon.
Throughout the process, it was obvious Hidden Dragon was very afraid of these Devouring Beasts, and didn't dare to fight back.
This situation, was just like a father beating his son, the son was angry but didn't dare speak.
At this time, Cherry couldn't stand it anymore, "Boss, should we go help him? He looks like he can't hold on!"
"Don't rush," Zhang Yue said unhurriedly, "Wait a bit longer."
Seeing Zhang Yue still unwilling to make a move, standing there with Armageddon Black Dragon and Cherry watching him being beaten.
Hidden Dragon couldn't help but roar in anger, "Bastard! Are you going to watch me get killed?"
At this moment, Zhang Yue finally made a move.
Boom!
A storm of Thundercloud + Death Storm, two area skills simultaneously covered the Five Devouring Beasts.
After dealing 1 billion AOE damage in one wave, he followed up with single-target skills to execute them.
In an instant, the Five Devouring Beasts were all killed.
Battle over.
The lightning on Hidden Dragon's body finally dissipated.
He climbed up from the ground somewhat embarrassed.
Looking at Zhang Yue, he seemed to just remember he had been a bit rude just now, saying some unpleasant things in a moment of panic.
He quickly subconsciously apologized to Zhang Yue, "Sorry, earlier… I was a bit agitated, I thought you were doing it on purpose."
"No worries," Zhang Yue smiled calmly and said, "I thought you were a master."
Although Hidden Dragon still acted polite toward Zhang Yue on the surface, in his heart he held resentment, "No, I'm just an ordinary person, naturally I don't have strength like yours."
At this moment, the corpses of the Five Devouring Beasts killed by Zhang Yue began to violently react.
Around them, large groups of Desperados gathered, all offering up their lives to provide life energy to the Devouring Beasts.
WHOOSH! WHOOSH!
Countless red lights from the bodies of the Desperados poured into the corpses of the Devouring Beasts.
Before long, the Five lord-level Devouring Beasts, all revived in 20-star BOSS form.
