Dijiang-hao’s attacking and defensive strength was unproven. Naturally Zhang Che wanted to test and see if he could kill those two exotic beasts.

In any case, even if it couldn’t take the exotic beasts down, Zhang Che could operate Dijiang-hao and have it fly into outer space. The two exotic beasts wouldn’t dare to give chase.

“Warning! Warning! Unknown lifeforms detected behind Dijiang-hao!” Dijiang-hao’s radar was still issuing warnings.

Zhang Che slapped down on the warning button, stopping it from disrupting his own judgment. He operated Dijiang-hao, slowing it by a tiny bit, as if he hadn’t realized the danger lurking behind him, and continued flying south.

The two exotic beasts were truly astonishingly fast. Even though Zhang Che had lowered Dijiang-hao’s speed, it was still fifteen thousand kilometers per hour, at over Mach 12 speed.

No ordinary exotic beasts, even divine-quality ones, would find it easy to achieve such shocking speeds, and yet those two beasts actually did it!

As the two exotic beasts gradually closed in, Zhang Che studied the surveillance camera facing behind, and he finally saw their true appearances.

Although they were still pretty far apart, the screen displayed the two’s slim silhouettes.

“Hmm? They actually have no wings?” Zhang Che was really shocked! Exotic beasts with no wings were actually able to fly at over Mach 10!

It didn’t make sense! Could it be a flood dragon species exotic beast?

It was unlikely. If they truly were of the flood dragon species, would they be doing something like ambushing? They would have attacked the nearby cities long ago, and raised a huge commotion!

The two exotic beasts continued closing in. To his surprise, Zhang Che realized a layer of dark light was enveloping their slim bodies. It was exactly this layer of dark light that allowed them to fly at such a frightening speed, and not make much noise.

That layer of dark light seemed to ignore air resistance. Zhang Che didn’t see any of the rippling around their flight path that was usually present after going supersonic.

“It looks like those two are exotic beasts with unique flight abilities…” Realizing that, Zhang Che was instead less worried than before.

Since they didn’t achieve such high speed with pure strength, it proved that the two exotic beasts weren’t divine-quality. Since they weren’t, Dijiang-hao’s armor could totally withstand their physical attacks.

As for energy attacks, Dijiang-hao wasn’t afraid, either.

The surface of Dijiang-hao was coated with a layer of the latest heat-resistant lamination. It could, to a certain degree, nullify the damage of energy attacks.

Moreover, Dijiang-hao wasn’t the type of traditional sky shuttle that could only be beaten on passively. It was outfitted with lasers. Their attack range definitely surpassed that of most exotic beasts’ energy attacks.

“Just a little closer… once they’re within three thousand meters, the lasers can display at least half their full power. At that time, it will be a huge threat to those two exotic beasts!”

Zhang Che watched as the two exotic beasts behind quickly drew closer, his eyes narrowed.

He didn’t believe those two fellows’ elemental attacks could reach three thousand meters. If that was the case, he could only operate Dijiang-hao at overclock capacity immediately and enter outer space as soon as possible to avoid the danger.

-It should be impossible. Ordinary epic-quality exotic beasts only have a maximum attack range of about a thousand meters, and half their strength would be lost.- Zhang Che thought, not daring to say it aloud.

If he accidentally jinxed it, the results wouldn’t be pretty.

The two silhouettes finally came within five thousand meters.

“This is…” At this moment, Zhang Che finally got a clear look at the rough appearances of those two exotic beasts, and was extremely surprised.

“Weren’t they the terrifying exotic beasts I saw in the sky when I was going to Tian Xing City?”

Zhang Che remembered the scene vividly. A few of these exotic beasts caused a formation of planes to explode into balls of flames.

At that time, that group of exotic beasts even tried to pursue the sky shuttle Zhang Che was in after destroying the planes, forcing the sky shuttle to immediately fly into outer space, and barely avoid that crisis.

He didn’t expect to encounter these exotic beasts again here!

“They’re definitely epic-quality!” Zhang Che composed himself, getting a rough idea on the two exotic beasts’ quality. “Tsk, tsk. A pity that exotic beasts on Mercury won’t drop beast cards after they’re killed. I’d be rich otherwise!”

Zhang Che felt like he was capable of killing those two exotic beasts, and was already lamenting about not getting beast cards from them.

Speaking of the exotic beasts’ corpses, Zhang Che couldn’t help but remember when he was battling in the northern icy plains a few days ago. He had killed many powerful exotic beasts there, too. Although the government had agreed to purchase those corpses from them for research purposes, Zhang Che still haven’t gotten his rewards.

No matter which world it was, the efficiency of certain departments were really the same…

Four thousand meters… three thousand meters!

They had finally come into his attack range!

Zhang Che immediately focused his attention and aimed the two lasers through the targeting radar, locking onto those two exotic beasts. However, his hand was frozen above the firing button, not pressing down.

Since he was sure the two exotic beasts wouldn’t be any threat to Dijiang-hao, Zhang Che naturally wanted to wait until they got a little closer before firing. That way, he had a higher confidence of taking them down in one shot.

The high efficiency laser truly exhausted too much energy. Every shot he took would deplete a kilogram of energy minerals. Having to take another shot would be a waste!

It was only when the two exotic beasts came within a thousand meters that Zhang Che pressed down with his finger.

In the next moment, the long-ready lasers fired at the same time. Two burning beams of light lit up in the sky, instantly hitting the two figures.

Two extremely sharp creaking noises, like rocks being dragged on glass, rang out. They actually penetrated Dijiang-hao’s shell, directly entering Zhang Che’s ears.

“Their cries are so freaking unpleasant!” Zhang Che grimaced. He raised his hands to rub his ears, but his eyes remained focused on the surveillance screen.

Under the two burning beams of light, huge holes appeared on the two exotic beasts’ bodies.

No flesh and blood came out. Everything had evaporated. They were like paper burned with high speed flames, leaving only a big hole behind.

“As expected, Engineer Li didn’t lie to me!”

Zhang Che’s eyes shone. It seemed like the two kilograms worth of energy minerals were well spent. The powers of the high efficiency lasers had truly exceeded his imagination! A single shot of it could heavily injure mid-tier epic-quality exotic beasts!

“Damn, trying to run away? Not so easy!”

While Zhang Che was feeling full of himself, the two heavily injured exotic beasts had quickly turned around and sped off to the west.

Zhang Che cursed inside and immediately turned Dijiang-hao to give chase.

The advantage of Dijiang-hao using the new energy was on display. Its acceleration simply left one in shock. After only a few seconds, its speed increased by over fifty percent, reaching more than twenty thousand kilometers per hour.

“You can’t get away!” Zhang Che narrowed his eyes slightly. The laserss had already locked onto the two exotic beasts’ heads. As his finger pressed down on the firing button, the two fully charged weapons shot out two burning beams of light again.

Although the two exotic beasts had sensed the great danger approaching, and were about to move in an irregular pattern, how could their speed compare to the speed of light?

Without any warning, two beams of light shot past them. The two exotic beasts instantly lost a fraction of their heads. This was only because Zhang Che wanted to keep their corpses and chose not to directly kill them.

Even so, the two exotic beasts were on the verge of death, spinning as they plummeted to the ground.

“Almost done!” Zhang Che cheered softly, feeling a sense of relief inside.

Immediately, he slowed down, following the two exotic beasts closely as they fell.

Once he killed them, they would be the corpses of epic-quality exotic beasts. Despite being in sub-optimal states, they were still very valuable. Zhang Che wouldn’t waste such high-grade trophies.

After catching up to them, before they crashed to the ground, Zhang Che opened up a tiny opening on Dijiang-hao. The scarlet sword shot out like lightning, punching through their heads.

Fortunately, there wasn’t a human settlement below them. The two exotic beasts’ corpses directly crashed onto a flat grassland, alarming the nearby weak exotic beasts and sending them scurrying away quickly.

After a short moment, Dijiang-hao slowly descended from the sky.

Zhang Che opened the cabin door impatiently and jumped out. He was so shocked by the sheer size of the bodies that he couldn’t utter a word.

Earlier when they were up in the sky, there was nothing for reference, and they were far apart, thus he didn’t feel the two exotic beasts were big. Now that he got a closer look, he realized the bodies were actually over fifty meters long!

Before he could look closely at the two exotic beasts’ appearances, in his spiritual sea, the ball of light representing the Umbra Wind God Leopard quickly stirred, transmitting his elated emotions to Zhang Che.

“Hmm? What’s going on? Does this little fellow want to consume the corpses of these two exotic beasts?”

Zhang Che had never come across such a situation. In the past, he slew countless exotic beasts of all species and types in the beast world, and yet the little fellow had never shown any reaction.

Could it be that this little fellow was a very picky eater, and the corpses of ordinary exotic beasts were unable to interest him at all?

Or, perhaps the two exotic beasts were like the Umbra Wind God Leopard, possessing the dark and wind attributes?

The possibility seemed likely! Otherwise, why would they be so frighteningly fast? Perhaps that was a blessing from their wind attribute!

Also, there was always a layer of dark light around their bodies. It was very likely to be energy from their dark attribute!

Back then, they had probably used the skills from their dark attribute to instantly destroy the planes, making them explode at the same time.

Realizing that, Zhang Che was relieved. A ray of light shot out from his brow as he summoned the little Umbra Wind God Leopard.

The Umbra Wind God Leopard, which looked like a big, ugly black dog, whimpered happily the moment he appeared, and rushed up to the corpses of the exotic beasts, wagging his greenish-black tail like a windmill.

Zhang Che’s face turned dark. -You’re a freaking nine-star super divine-quality exotic beast, not a puppy!-

The Umbra Wind God Leopard didn’t care what Zhang Che was thinking. He vented his excitement, then opened his mouth wide and bit down on the neck of one of the exotic beasts’ headless corpses.

Zhang Che felt a numbing ache in his gums watching this. -That’s the corpse of an exotic beast at mid-tier epic-quality at the very least. Can your little teeth chew through it?-

However, the scene that unfolded next left Zhang Che’s jaw hanging. His face looked like he had just seen a ghost, his eyes filled with disbelief.
