Although Fire Dragon's powers had improved tremendously since it started following Fade, it was still only at Rank 6. It was no match for a Rank 7 Cloud Black Leopard.
Hence, it immediately turned around and rushed towards Fade while shouting, "Boss, save me."
Fade was speechless upon hearing its cries. "I asked you to come here to help me out, not cause more trouble."
"That's not my fault. I can't help that the enemy is so much stronger. There's nothing I can do! " Fire Dragon continued to bicker.
Of course, Fade could not stand by and watch Fire Dragon get killed by the Cloud Black Leopard. With a swoosh, he unsheathed his sword and blocked the attack to save Fire Dragon.
However, Fade's action left him open, giving the other vicious beasts a chance to attack.
For a moment, he was caught in between repeated attacks by all four vicious beasts. All he could do was dodge.
Boom, Boom, Boom!
Behind him, explosions sounded. Every attack flew very close to him and created craters all over the ground.
Fade and Fire Dragon were dodging around and doing their best to avoid each attack.
However, the four vicious beasts obviously did not intend to let Fade go. They were full of killing intent.
They roared and attacked him with all their might.
Not only that, each of these beasts had their own speciality. Working together, they were able to put their strengths to use whilst covering each other's weaknesses. They were a powerful team.
It was getting harder and harder for Fade to avoid getting hit. Things were taking a turn for the worse.
He was starting to get anxious.
Just then, the Iron Wing Eagle suddenly swooped down in front of him. With a flap of its wings, a gust of energy shot out and struck a mountain up ahead.
Rocks tumbled down, blocking the pathway.
Seeing this, Fade had no choice but to change his course and go left towards another hill.
Unfortunately, as he did that, the Iron Wing Eagle once again flapped its wings and shot out multiple attacks.
The gusts of energy blocked his path and forced Fade to keep changing course. He headed deeper into the forest.
However, the three vicious beasts did not slow down their pace as they kept up the chase.
Boom!
Another aerial attack lit the forest on fire. Fade was once again forced to change his direction. He headed towards a steep mountain.
It was very steep, and there was a cliff that went off at ninety degrees.
During the chase, Fade suddenly found himself inside a valley.
At the end of the valley, there was a tall wall about several hundred meters tall. Both sides were also tall, straight walls.
There was a passage behind them, but the three vicious beasts were hot on their tail, so that path was blocked.
"Oh no, a dead end." Fade realized that he was in trouble. He quickly prepared to escape through flight.
However, the huge Iron Wing Eagle suddenly swirled down and blocked any way out from the top.
