Escaping Death

“Even if the Armored Dragon is a High-level Lord, it can’t fly, only run and jump. High in the sky, it can’t change its jump trajectory, so shaking it off should be easy.” Luo Feng remained calm, his feet on the hexagonal shield, carving an arc through the air before shooting straight into the clouds!

One of the Armored Dragon’s eyes was already blind, leaving only one intact, which fixed its gaze on Luo Feng.

“Awoo~~~” With a furious roar, the Armored Dragon violently swung its long tail!

Whoosh!

The tail, over ten meters long, instantly transformed into a blue blur, sweeping towards Luo Feng. The distance they had created was instantly closed by the sweeping tail. The High-level Lord ‘Armored Dragon’s’ running speed already far exceeded the speed of sound, and its tail whip speed was more than ten times its running speed!

The tail’s speed was several times faster than the fastest sniper rifle bullet! This was the terror of a High-level Lord!

“Hiss!”

The edge of the tail generated a super high-pressure airflow due to its immense speed.

“It won’t hit me, still fifty to sixty centimeters short!” Luo Feng instantly assessed the situation.

The tip of the tail was still half a meter from Luo Feng’s chest, sweeping past harmlessly. However, the compressed, high-pressure airflow carried by the tail slammed into Luo Feng’s chest, like a giant stone hammer, making it hard to breathe.

“Thump!” Luo Feng was sent flying, quickly controlling his shield to stabilize himself.

“As expected of a High-level Lord. The high-pressure airflow from its tail almost knocked the wind out of me.” Luo Feng felt a mouthful of fresh blood surge to his throat. Unable to hold it back, he spat out a mouthful of blood with a ‘pfft’.

He then looked towards the Armored Dragon in the distance, its massive body plummeting downwards: “You’re a terrestrial monster. Unless you become King-level, you’re destined not to fly!” Luo Feng smiled faintly, his mood completely relaxed. He quickly flew upwards at an angle, propelled by his shield.

Whoosh!

Soaring through the air, the feeling of flight was truly exhilarating!

“Awoo~~~” The Armored Dragon stomped through the city streets, leaping onto the rooftop of a 28-story residential building. It then pushed off again with immense force… The rooftop instantly crumbled, sending large concrete chunks tumbling down from the high-rise.

Using this push, the Armored Dragon leaped over a hundred meters high, roaring as it flew towards Luo Feng.

“Armored Dragon, your jumping ability, no matter how good, is useless.” Luo Feng had already rapidly ascended when the Armored Dragon pushed off the rooftop… continuously climbing higher, he easily reached an altitude of three hundred meters.

The Armored Dragon could only fall helplessly.

Whoosh! The Armored Dragon whipped its tail, striking the air, and surprisingly used the strong rebound resistance of the air to rapidly descend.

“It’s no use.”

Luo Feng continued to ascend, flying towards the outskirts of City 003.

“Rumble~~~” A piercing sound came from below.

“Hmm?”

High in the sky, Luo Feng looked down to see the Armored Dragon darting through the city, sometimes leaping over residential buildings, sometimes sprinting down streets, sometimes trampling over houses, relentlessly pursuing Luo Feng’s direction.

“It’s still not giving up!” Luo Feng’s expression subtly changed. “As a High-level Lord, the Armored Dragon’s vision is incredibly sharp. Even if I fly two or three kilometers high, as long as there’s no obstruction, it can see me!” Let alone a High-level Lord, even Luo Feng could see figures two or three li away.

It was no surprise that the Armored Dragon could see figures five or six li away.

“My flying speed doesn’t exceed the speed of sound. But its running speed is faster than the speed of sound. It’ll be hard to shake it off.”

“I can only break through the clouds!” Luo Feng quickly ascended again!

Whoosh!

Stepping on his hexagonal shield, he shot upwards, intending to pass above the clouds. Once above the clouds, the Armored Dragon wouldn’t be able to see Luo Feng, and thus couldn’t pursue him.

“Caw~~~”

“Caw caw caw~~~”

Amidst a series of ear-splitting cries, a massive, dark swarm of avian monsters appeared from the northwest, flying directly towards Luo Feng.

“I’m such an idiot!” Luo Feng cursed himself. The sky was almost entirely the domain of avian monsters; only incredibly fast fighter jets could fly there… And human Warriors, if they dared to fly in mid-air, would naturally be attacked by surrounding avian flocks!

Even before the Great Nirvana period, birds had excellent eyesight. Not to mention now.

These avian monsters must have spotted him flying in mid-air from a distance and immediately rallied their flock to attack!

“At the Carrefour Supermarket, I could outmaneuver those terrestrial beasts in mid-air. But trying to outmaneuver these avian monsters… that’s just asking for death!” Luo Feng didn’t hesitate. The moment he saw the dark mass of avian monsters, he immediately dove towards the city below.

Facing an avian flock in the air meant certain death!

But against a lone Armored Dragon, as long as he kept his distance, he still had a chance of survival.

…

“Awoo~~~” Seeing the human in the sky dive down, the Armored Dragon immediately chased after Luo Feng.

Luo Feng, in his dive, carved a wide arc!

Whoosh!

He shot directly into a twelve-story residential building, like a flash of lightning, bursting through a balcony door and window. With a crash, the balcony glass shattered, and Luo Feng was inside.

“Boom~~~” Like a dark green streak of light, the Armored Dragon charged, directly smashing into the eighth-floor balcony where Luo Feng had just entered. Under the terrifying impact speed of the Armored Dragon, the entire residential building shook violently, the concrete walls in the center of the floor collapsed and cracked, and the whole building slowly began to fall.

“Human!”

The Armored Dragon let out its beast roar, locking onto a blur that had already passed ahead. The afterimage of Luo Feng once again plunged into another residential building.

“Boom~~~”

The Armored Dragon, fearing that any hesitation would allow Luo Feng to escape, didn’t pause for a moment. It crashed directly into the spot where Luo Feng had passed… The entire residential building was cut in half from the middle, then slowly collapsed again!

This was a medium-sized residential district, with over twenty such twelve-story residential buildings. Yet, Luo Feng and the Armored Dragon, one after the other, had almost consecutively destroyed eight residential buildings… Passing through the glass windows of the residential buildings had no effect on Luo Feng’s speed. But for the Armored Dragon’s massive body, smashing through a residential building significantly impacted its speed.

However, the Armored Dragon dared not not smash through!

Because the residential buildings blocked its vision!

“Rumble~~~” As it destroyed the eighth residential building, the Armored Dragon suddenly stopped, standing on the ground.

The eighth residential building slowly fell, pressing down on the Armored Dragon, but the Armored Dragon didn’t dodge at all. With a crash… the entire residential building smashed onto its body, but compared to the Armored Dragon’s body hardness, the residential building was as fragile as tofu, not harming the Armored Dragon in the slightest.

“Human, human…” The Armored Dragon roared in anger, looking around.

That’s right!

It had lost Luo Feng!

…

In a dark electrical room in the underground garage of this residential district, Luo Feng leaned against the wall.

“Inhale, exhale, inhale, exhale.” Luo Feng breathed slowly, feeling the throbbing pain in his chest, blood seeping from his combat uniform.

“This injury is quite severe. I was already heavily wounded escaping the encirclement of numerous Beast General-level monsters. Then, the high-pressure airflow from the Armored Dragon’s tail hit my chest, worsening the injury.” Luo Feng gently rubbed his chest twice; waves of pain made his face even paler.

Despite his severe injuries, he was in good spirits.

“I’m hiding in this underground garage, specifically in this electrical room. I doubt that Armored Dragon will find me.” Luo Feng showed a hint of a smile. His escape plan, rushing into this residential district, had already been formulated.

Residential districts like this definitely had underground garages.

He repeatedly passed through residential buildings, and the buildings repeatedly blocked the Armored Dragon’s vision… Even if the Armored Dragon was fierce, smashing through buildings repeatedly, he finally found an opportunity. An underground garage entrance was not far below the eighth residential building, and he naturally rushed straight in.

With the collapse of the eighth residential building, the ruins covered the underground garage entrance. It would be truly difficult for the Armored Dragon to guess where Luo Feng was.

“Awoo~~~”

From above ground came the Armored Dragon’s furious howl, louder than its previous roars.

“Rumble~~~” Immediately followed by the faint trembling of the entire earth, and various other roars rising and falling.

One must know that this Armored Dragon was the leader of monsters controlling an area of twenty to thirty li in the suburbs. With a single command, its massive horde of hundreds of thousands of monsters, under the leadership of Low-level Beast Generals, Mid-level Beast Generals, and High-level Beast Generals, immediately swept in all directions, searching for humans.

…

In the cold underground garage, in the electrical room.

“The beast roars are incessant, the earth is shaking. That Armored Dragon mobilized its entire horde to search for humans in the surrounding area?” Luo Feng’s expression changed. A single Armored Dragon might have difficulty finding him, but hundreds of thousands of monsters searching everywhere… he probably wouldn’t remain hidden for long.

After all, this residential district would definitely be a key search area for the Armored Dragon.

“It seems I can’t heal here.”

Luo Feng stood up, feeling relatively relaxed. The situation before was much more difficult, and he still escaped.

Now, he couldn’t escape?

“City 003 has countless subway tunnels.”

“Hmm, if I remember correctly, there’s a subway tunnel not far from here! If I enter the subway tunnel, I can easily leave City 003. Subway tunnels are narrow, so even if there are monsters, they’ll be small and weak. At least the Armored Dragon’s body can’t fit.”

“It’s time to go home, time to return to the Base City.”

“Once I’m back, I’ll sell this Dragon Egg, along with that Combat Uniform and Sharp Sword! I wonder how much they’ll sell for, enough for 30 billion?” Although Luo Feng’s chest throbbed with pain, his heart was filled with infinite anticipation.

Even though he fought fiercely this time, if it could help his younger brother stand again, it would be more than worth it!
