Chapter 136 Wind Serpent

The wind serpent is a flying mount. Currently, there are already three flying mounts on the flying mount rankings. The Nether Lightning Eagle ranks first, the White-headed Griffon ranks second, and the wind serpent ranks third. Among flying mounts, the wind serpent is a lower-grade species. Its combat power isn't very strong, but it has an extremely powerful attack move, which is its poison. They can spray some venom, causing lethal damage to other creatures. So the wind serpent's combat ability is still very strong.

Any flying mount is an incredibly powerful existence for ordinary players.

Sitting on the wind serpent was a dark priest wearing a gray cloak. The cloak obscured his cheeks, so that players could not see his appearance at all.

This wind serpent appeared too suddenly, so that Tang Yao and Kuangfa's people were a little stunned. The person riding the wind serpent wasn't from the Mage Alliance, and was obviously not from the Niuren Tribe!

There are so many experts in Faith. Even Nie Yan wouldn't dare say he was invincible. Since his rebirth, Nie Yan has used his rebirth experience to improve the combat power of the Niuren Tribe's players as much as possible. A top-level player from the Niuren Tribe can simultaneously fight against more than three top players from the Mage Alliance and Sacred Guardians. This is already a remarkable achievement. However, it's hard to say how many experts are hidden in Faith, and how many players' names are not displayed on the level rankings.

No one knows where this dark priest came from, or which faction he belongs to. Being able to obtain a flying mount indicates his strength is definitely extraordinary.

"Nie Yan, is the wind serpent powerful?" Tang Yao whispered to Nie Yan, asking about the information on various flying mounts. The official website has always been tight-lipped and never mentioned them, so he didn't know much about the wind serpent.

"You encountered a wind serpent?" Nie Yan asked, startled.

"What's wrong?" Tang Yao sensed something was wrong in Nie Yan's tone and asked with a start.

"If you encounter a wind serpent, blast it with lightning and run away quickly. Never touch its poison!" Nie Yan said urgently. Although the wind serpent is a relatively low-grade flying mount, its poison can make many people pale in fear. If the Nether Lightning Eagle is poisoned, it will at least suffer moderate damage.

Nie Yan learned from Guo Huai that the Niuren Tribe's forces were being intercepted and was extremely anxious. He quickly interrupted his leveling and rushed to the battlefield with Xie Yao. His mount, Faulkner's Warhorse, was seriously injured and hadn't recovered yet. He could only run wildly on foot. At this time, he felt an even more urgent need for a flying mount. He absolutely had to get the Darkwing Dragon!

With the Darkwing Dragon, ordinary flying mounts would be trash, and his mobility would also be greatly improved, so he could support his guild brothers at any time.

After hearing Nie Yan's words, Tang Yao's heart tightened. Seeing the wind serpent blocking his escape route, he quickly manipulated the Nether Lightning Eagle to fly horizontally to the side.

The wind serpent's actions clearly revealed hostility towards Tang Yao.

With a tweet, the Nether Lightning Eagle let out a clear cry, and a bolt of lightning struck down towards the wind serpent's position.

The player riding the wind serpent manipulated the wind serpent to roll in the air, and the lightning missed.

Seeing the Nether Lightning Eagle attacking the wind serpent in the sky, Kuangfa shouted excitedly in the team chat, "That wind serpent is our helper. Everyone quickly shoot down the Nether Lightning Eagle. Axe throwers, pay attention, throw!"

Tang Yao was just preparing to escape when a series of rotating flying axes flew towards the Nether Lightning Eagle in the sky.

With the flying axes close behind, the dark priest saw Tang Yao's predicament and had already manipulated the wind serpent to block the Nether Lightning Eagle's escape route.

Being attacked from the front and back, Tang Yao's heart sank. It seemed he wouldn't be able to escape this time.

Seeing the flying axes about to hit the Nether Lightning Eagle, Tang Yao suddenly manipulated the Nether Lightning Eagle to increase its altitude, dodging more than a dozen flying axes, but it was still hit by five flying axes. The Nether Lightning Eagle let out a shrill scream, and blood slowly drifted in the sky like rain.

What a great opportunity! Seeing this, the dark priest in the distance revealed a sinister smile. The wind serpent under his feet suddenly let out a sharp hiss and spat out a stream of green venom.

If he were hit by this venom, who knew what the result would be? But at such a close distance, it was impossible to avoid. Tang Yao hardened his heart and issued an order to the Nether Lightning Eagle.

The Nether Lightning Eagle let out a clear cry. Streaks of white lightning swirled around its body, as if it were wrapped in lightning. It endured the venom and pounced on the wind serpent. A huge, thick bolt of lightning descended from the sky, smashing down on the wind serpent and the dark priest on its back.

The dark priest standing on the wind serpent was shocked. He didn't expect Tang Yao to launch such a swift counterattack in desperation. This was clearly a suicidal move!

The dark priest hesitated. If he sacrificed his wind serpent, even if he won, it wouldn't mean anything!

The dark priest quickly manipulated the wind serpent to retreat, preparing to deal with the Nether Lightning Eagle later. Just as he manipulated the wind serpent to retreat, with a bang, a thick bolt of lightning struck him head-on. The lightning stunned the wind serpent.

Streaks of electric snakes swirled around the wind serpent's body. The wind serpent fell from the sky and no longer obeyed the dark priest's control.

In a battle, the wind serpent was still at a disadvantage when it encountered the Nether Lightning Eagle. After all, the Nether Lightning Eagle was of a slightly higher grade.

"Too bad." Seeing that the Nether Lightning Eagle's lightning didn't kill the dark priest, Tang Yao couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. If the Nether Lightning Eagle's lightning had hit the dark priest, it could have instantly killed him. Hitting the wind serpent would only make it dizzy for a moment.

The Nether Lightning Eagle was seriously poisoned. The poison had spread throughout its body, and it had been hit by so many flying axes. It was already seriously injured. He didn't dare to stay and rode the Nether Lightning Eagle away in a cloud of dust.

The Nether Lightning Eagle rapidly ascended and flew out of the range of the flying axes.

"Damn, he ran away!" Kuangfa cursed in frustration. The Nether Lightning Eagle flew farther and farther away, and they couldn't catch up.

With a bang, the wind serpent, which had been stunned by the lightning, fell into the dense forest, struggled for a moment, and snapped several large trees in half, creating an impressive scene.

"Boss, should we go over and take a look?" The thief next to him asked.

Kuangfa pondered for a moment. Could it be that the Century Financial Group sent them to assist? It seemed that only the Century Financial Group could send such a powerful expert. Although the Century Financial Group hadn't created a guild, Cao Xu still had many experts under his command. The most mysterious studio in the country, the Wild Wolves Studio, was controlled by the Century Financial Group. No one knew the true strength of the Wild Wolves Studio, but it was said that there were many top-level experts inside. They received high salaries from the Century Financial Group and didn't show their faces in front of ordinary players like ordinary professional players.

The Century Financial Group had been operating in virtual games for so many years and still had some foundation.

The dark priest helped them, so Kuangfa naturally assumed that the dark priest riding the wind serpent was sent by the Century Financial Group.

"Let's go over and take a look," Kuangfa said, leading more than twenty thieves towards the direction where the wind serpent was.

After a while, the wind serpent woke up from its stupor, swayed unsteadily, and came to a stop. The dark priest looked up at the sky. The Nether Lightning Eagle had turned into a black dot on the horizon, and he couldn't catch up anymore, so he could only give up.

The dark priest noticed someone approaching and looked down at the ground not far away. He saw Kuangfa leading dozens of thieves towards him.

Kuangfa made a gesture and shouted to the dark priest, "Friend, are you from Wild Wolves?"

There were more than twenty thieves standing around Kuangfa, which was considered a bit of a formation, but they still felt a little apprehensive when they saw the huge wind serpent.

The wind serpent was tens of yards long and very thick, only slightly smaller than a flying dragon. It hissed and flicked its red tongue, as if it were about to devour someone at any moment.

Hearing Kuangfa's question, the dark priest didn't answer. His face was hidden in his cloak, and it was impossible to tell what his expression was.

Kuangfa frowned slightly and suppressed his temper, "Friend, if you're from Wild Wolves, come down and talk."

The dark priest still didn't answer.

Kuangfa was already a little angry. So what if he had a wind serpent? He was still the leader of a guild, and this dark priest wasn't giving him any face at all.

Several thieves next to him were already so angry that they were about to start cursing. If Kuangfa hadn't held them back, who knew what they would have said.

The dark priest's gaze swept over Kuangfa and the others, and a cold light suddenly shot out from his eyes. The wind serpent, which had been in a calm state, suddenly went berserk. With a hiss, a stream of venom shot out towards Kuangfa.

Kuangfa was stunned for a moment. When he noticed that the wind serpent's actions were abnormal and it was actually attacking him, he teleported and escaped fifty yards. By the time the thieves behind him wanted to react, it was already too late.

The venom poured down like a torrential rain, hitting three thieves. The three thieves let out heart-wrenching screams and fell to the ground.

The venom quickly killed them. Two thieves next to them were splashed with a little venom. They stealthed and ran about ten yards, but they still fell to the ground. The wind serpent's deadly poison was too powerful.

"Damn, that guy is attacking us!"

"Shit, get him!"

These thieves had already used up their flying axes when they were dealing with the Nether Lightning Eagle, and they had no means of dealing with the wind serpent at all. The scene turned into a one-sided massacre. These Mage Alliance thieves collapsed at the first touch and couldn't organize an effective counterattack. Some of the faster thieves ran away, while sixteen corpses lay on the ground.

The wind serpent was like a demonic beast from hell, slaughtering people like pigs and dogs. Its copper bell-like eyes emitted a bloodthirsty red light.

In the distant dense forest, Kuangfa frowned and pondered as he looked at the back of the dark priest standing on the wind serpent's back. He just couldn't think of such a person. It seemed that this dark priest wasn't from Wild Wolves. Who was this guy helping?

The identity of the dark priest hidden in the cloak couldn't help but make people speculate. His identity was shrouded in mystery, and no one knew.

Was he a third-party force, or just a casual player?

At this time, the wind serpent was invincible. In order to avoid being hunted down, Kuangfa quickly left.
