Compared to the last time they were seen, these Floating Skyriders seem to have become more slender and streamlined in their physique, with improved flight speed and agility.
If the last time they had just emerged from their nests and were just learning to fly, now they have matured to a level where they can start hunting for prey on their own.
However, it’s evident that Skyriders of this level are no match for the formidable Sky Guardians.
With just a grab and a peck, several Skyriders are killed, and their broken bodies fall from the sky.
Three Sky Guardians form a team, using their extremely advanced flying techniques to split the enemy apart and then pick them off one by one.
In just a few minutes, this team of Skyriders is completely wiped out, meeting their demise on the spot.
The Sky Guardians only make slight adjustments to their formation and then form up to fly towards other battlefields, providing aerial support for their allies.
Ji Chen also witnesses the scene of Skyriders being effortlessly dispatched, but there is no joy in his heart.
In just a month or two, the Sea Heirs have evolved once again. What’s even more terrifying is that they have completely abandoned the principles of biological evolution and only evolved abilities that benefit them.
This makes Ji Chen wonder, if given enough time and biological templates, will they evolve into beings similar to deities?
On the western sh.o.r.e of the main island of the New Moon Islands, thousands of Sea Heirs land from the sea. Seeing that there are no creatures or enemies here, they dive headlong into the jungle without hesitation.
Little do they know that within the depths of the forest, an armed group of elves is secretly observing them.
When they see the distorted bodies of the Sea Heirs, their expressions turn grim.
For the elves, who are known for their pure beauty, the grotesque appearance of the Sea Heirs is nothing short of a shock to their sensibilities.
“My goodness, how can such disgusting creatures exist? I feel like I’m about to vomit my lunch!”
“Is this what Lord Ji Chen referred to as the Sea Heirs? They are even more repulsive than the vilest snail in the jungle…”
Soon, the leading female elven ranger speaks with determination in a low voice.
“They seem to be heading towards the Crown of the Ocean. We must intercept them; otherwise, Lord Ji Chen is likely to be ambushed from both sides!”
“Sisters, our elven race has risen from a jungle filled with peril. We have become strong not because we love peace or nature, but because… we are skilled in combat, which allowed us to carve a path through the treacherous jungle!”
“Today, let these repulsive creatures taste the might of our elves. We must not let Lord Ji Chen underestimate us!”
In an instant, a frigid arrow swiftly flew through the branches and leaves, piercing straight through one of the Deep Sea Impalers. It found its resting place in the tree trunk behind, its tail quivering faintly.
In just two breaths, the other Deep Sea Impalers spewed out thorns towards the spot where the arrow had come from, but the sound of them sinking into the trees indicated that they hadn’t hit their target.
Within the forest, the elven team began to discuss quietly once again.
“It seems that those Sea Heirs require a precise hit to be killed, and their reactions are extremely agile. We need to pinpoint their weaknesses, strike and retreat immediately, and look for opportunities to strike again.”
The elven rangers took multiple shots, gradually identifying various weaknesses of the Sea Heirs.
A single arrow could take down one Sea Heir, and due to the dense jungle, they couldn’t effectively counterattack.
As a result, the progress of the Sea Heirs on the western side slowed significantly.
Meanwhile, the attention of the Sea Heirs’ leader seemed to be directed towards another direction….
