107 Feeding on Rotten Meat

“Failure granted. Target: Fury Hound. Not the target.”

Fang Ping reminded Chen Long beside him. Qing Niao and Andre chatted as they walked. They were a little far away.

Just as he was about to call them, he heard Chen Long say, “This is also a tradition of Fire Dragon City. They believe that if a person dies and is eaten by a hunting dog, it’s actually another form of life extension.”

From what Chen Long said, it seemed that there was indeed such a custom in the highland area.

However, wasn’t this number a little too much? Five, ten, twenty. This number was increasing, and he felt that the situation was not right.

There were so many corpses. There probably wouldn’t be enough to eat.

Even without Fang Ping’s reminder, some people with good eyesight had discovered traces of the Hound.

Their goal was also very clear. They ran straight towards the Elite Team.

“Fury Hound. Characteristics: Run, Counterattack. Fury One, Fang Ping to command.”

Fang Ping first looked at Ivan at the back of the team. He had no intention of taking action. However, with the big shots holding down the fort, the Hounds would only be courting death if they came.

“Formation, close combat defense. Long-range attacks with more than two points of Strength are prohibited.”

Hounds had special characteristics that allowed them to run very fast. Fang Ping roughly estimated that there were more than twenty of them, but most of them were hunting dogs. A few of them were larger, standing out like cranes in a flock of chickens. They were large hunting dogs.

Where was the Fury Hound he had just seen? Why couldn’t he find it?

If the Fury Hound, which had the characteristics of Fury and Counterattack, was ignored, the threat it brought was very huge.

Inadvertently, Fang Ping saw a slightly different purplish-red figure among the Hounds. It was about the same size as the Hounds, but the color was slightly different.

Special Characteristics.

It was indeed him.

“All ranged soldiers, focus fire. On the left and rear, purple-red Fury Hound.”

The Hound’s attack power was not as exaggerated as the Troll’s. If they really focused fire, they could still be killed.

However, the Ranger’s range was only 75 meters. This was the limit. The real limited range was within 50 meters.

At this distance, with Hound’s speed, he could pounce over in less than ten seconds.

It was already not bad to be able to shoot one or two arrows in such a short period of time.

Therefore, Dodge and Resistance training were also compulsory long-range training. When facing these high-speed targets, it was very important to have the ability to protect yourself.

The Rangers drew their bows one by one and waited. Fang Ping continued to observe if there was a second Fury Hound.

Suddenly, a white light flew out of the Melee defense line in front of him and landed on the purple-red Fury Hound.

The Fury Hound paused, turned around, and ran at the same speed.

The surrounding rangers looked at Fang Ping. What was going on? Why did he run away?

Fang Ping also realized that it was probably because of Lisa’s attack. The first time it had a characteristic, it dealt 60 points of damage. The Fury Hound was afraid and ran away.

At this time, timing was crucial. Fang Ping could not find another Fury Hound, so he simply ordered, “Attack freely from afar.”

The Hounds at the front were getting closer and closer. Fang Ping could see that these Hounds were much larger than the dogs he remembered. They far exceeded the category of large dogs and were closer to a calf.

As for the large hunting dogs in the hunting group, they were a size larger than them and were about the size of warhorses.

Carnivores of the same size were different from herbivores.

“Melee defense, don’t let them rush over. Rangers, prepare to interfere.”

The Warriors in front had already formed a tacit understanding. They split into formations and faced the Hounds one by one, while the stronger ones faced the large Hounds.

The Hound’s strength was not high. As long as it wore armor, its basic attacks could be blocked. However, its Counterattack characteristic was very troublesome.

Counterattack: Counterattacks an attacker after receiving an attack within range.

Under the effect of the characteristic effect, Counterattack was extremely fast and difficult to dodge. This unexpected effect was its true strength.

Close combat erupted.

At this time, Fang Ping did not need to command anymore. He only needed to pay attention to the battle situation in various parts of the battlefield and prepare for the Forbidden Life Spell and the Forbidden Armor Spell.

There were very few professionals among the beasts. Only two large hunting dogs had the effect of Heroic skills. The other hunting dogs relied on their characteristics and skills to fight without skills.

Fang Ping glanced at Lisa. The staff in her hand glowed with a faint white light.

She didn’t defend herself. Instead, she took the initiative and confronted a large hunting dog that swooped toward her. Her staff struck one of the large hound’s paws. He slapped Lisa directly with his other paw at breakneck speed, very much like the scene of his battle with Andre that morning.

However, Lisa was currently wearing defensive equipment. Her defensive equipment was much stronger than Fang Ping’s Elemental Set.

The large claw slapped Lisa’s body. A circle of yellow ripples appeared on the surface of the claw and the breastplate. Lisa did not move at all. She bent her staff and moved her entire body forward, smashing into the head of the large Hound.

As soon as she was hit, another extremely fast claw grabbed out and knocked Lisa back a few steps. Just as Lisa stabilized herself, she saw the large hunting dog turn around and run like the Fury Hound just now.

Lisa couldn’t catch up even if she wanted to.

This was a headache when facing enemies with Run characteristics.

They attacked quickly. If they couldn’t win, they fled quicker.

“All Rangers, prioritize attacking the fleeing Hounds.”

As soon as he finished shouting, he saw a few more Hounds turn around and run away. Fang Ping added, “Melee combat, think of a way to stall your opponent.”

After several Hounds escaped, the situation was one-sided.

It was not as difficult a battle as Fang Ping had imagined. Soon, those who could be killed died. Those who could not be killed ran away.

“Clean up the battlefield.”

Fang Ping shouted.

At the beginning, the first one to detect the Fury Hound made Fang Ping a little nervous. He did not expect that there was only one Fury Hound. Moreover, he had not even seen it before it was beaten away by Lisa.

Looking at the busy Rangers, they searched the battlefield for bows and arrows, as well as two Warriors to drag the corpses of the hunting dogs.

That’s right, only two hounds died.

These guys were indeed good at escaping.

Fang Ping said doubtfully, “What are these Hounds thinking? They’re so weak, yet they still dare to attack us. They’re really courting death.”

“Hounds feed on rotten meat. That’s why they can get along well with Fire Dragon City. The fact that they took the initiative to attack now means that they haven’t had anything to eat for a long time. That’s why they took the risk to attack.”

Fang Ping turned around and glanced at Chen Long, who had quietly appeared beside him. He was also watching the battlefield.

“The tradition of Fire Dragon City is to bury the dead in the resting place. These hounds have nothing to eat, which means that something must have happened in Fire Dragon City.”

Speaking of unforeseen events, Fang Ping recalled what Andre had said last night. He believed that Chen Long had heard him, so he asked, “Then what do you think is going on in Fire Dragon City now?”

Chen Long fell silent for a moment.

“Fire Dragon City… I don’t know.”

It seemed like he did not want to talk about it, so Fang Ping did not continue asking.

The Hounds were all Normal and Excellent-grade. Their strength was not high, but their counterattacks were more threatening.

And because most people adopted a defensive strategy and had protective armor, not many were injured.
