Chapter 237: Chapter 237
The Death God in the sky truly lived up to its name; its reaction and flight speed were incredibly fast. Du You only had one opportunity to go on the offensive, after which he entirely lost his chance to attack.
It wasn’t because the opponent was flying too fast but rather too high. At such an altitude, it’s hard for Du You to maintain precision, not to mention that even if a spell could fly that far, it would collapse midway.
In the sky, only Xiaozi and the white Griffin were attacking each other.
The Cursed Crow King was beyond thought, as its speed simply could not keep up with the two birds and could only stay by Du You’s side. However, the Curse Aura of the Cursed Crow King only had a range of one hundred and seventy meters, so it was of no use whatsoever.
There was no effect on Du You’s own vision, and he could still see the changes in the sky with clarity.
Even though Xiaozi’s star level was higher, she couldn’t make up for the gap between their levels. The white Griffin’s speed and reaction time were both faster than Xiaozi’s. It was shrouded in a layer of wind that acted as a certain level of barrier. Read complete versıon only at 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩⚫𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢⚫𝔫𝔢𝔱
At a certain distance, the white Griffin’s attacks were always mixed with sharp Wind Blades.
If it wasn’t for the electric current on Xiaozi that numbs the Griffin everytime it got close, Xiaozi would have long been unable to withstand the attacks. Still, Xiaozi was at a disadvantage.
This was due to the opponent’s injury; otherwise, the consequences might have been unimaginable.
The two birds were dashing against each other at high speed in the sky, where each collision caused damage to both sides. However, Xiaozi couldn’t harm the opponent at all and could only use her electric current to counterattack when being attacked by the opponent.
Conversely, each attack from the opponent would cut off some of Xiaozi’s feathers and even leave injuries. The only advantage Xiaozi had was her long-range Thunder Light Orb, but it was hard to hit from a certain distance.
If the Griffin also had this kind of long-range attack, Xiaozi would be in danger today.
Luckily, this wild Griffin was instinctively utilizing its abilities and hadn’t learned any powerful skills.
"This won’t do. We can’t go on . If this creature wins, we won’t stand a chance in getting away."
Even though Du You wanted to take the Griffin’s eggs and go or give up now, none of these were possible anymore. If he made a move now, the Griffin would attack him. If he tried to run away now, Xiaozi wouldn’t last long.
Once Xiaozi was killed, Du You would be in real danger. This Griffin’s speed and ability to fly was such that Du You didn’t believe he could escape. Therefore, he only had one way out.
With determination, Du You said: "First upgrade, then consider other options."
Du You, who had been stuck at the peak of the 7th tier, absorbed two Crystal Coins straight away, flashed slightly, and his aura noticeably increased a lot. At this moment, Du You had entered the 8th tier.
Then, without thinking, Du You directly upgraded the ’Summoning Purple Thunder Eagle’ skill to the peak of the 8th tier. Xiaozi, who was flying in the sky, was affected by the skill. Her injuries recovered quickly and her depleted physical strength and Magic Power were restored to perfection in a very short time. Even her aura improved by a lot.
Xiaozi let out a joyful chirp. Thunder Light Orbs surged around her, seeming more excited than before.
The white Griffin also noticed Xiaozi’s changes, and its power seemed to have increased a lot, which made it more anxious. The white Griffin didn’t forget that there was not only one thunderbird here, there was also a biped creature after its egg.
In anxiety, the white Griffin’s battle power that exploded out, still steadily suppressed Xiaozi’s. It seemed the situation was getting worse. After fighting for a while, Xiaozi’s spirits were broken, and her body received numerous wounds again. As for the white Griffin, it seemed to be in the same state as before, only a little scorched.
At least on the surface, the white Griffin didn’t seem to have suffered any serious injuries. It couldn’t be helped; this was the repression of its tier. The power of the second tier was indeed much stronger than that of the first.
This was a qualitative change. Although the gap could be shortened by star-level, it couldn’t be completely leveled.
The wound on the Griffin’s leg kept draining its blood and energy. The impairment on its eyesight also hindered the Griffin’s fight, yet it was still not something Du You could deal with.
"I must figure out a way, otherwise, Xiaozi is no match for this creature."
Du You squinted his eyes, looking at the sky with a severe expression, but there didn’t seem to be a way for him to contribute. "Damn this Griffin, why the ability to see clearly at night? All the other Griffins can’t."
"If only this Griffin could come down on its own. Together, they could never be a match for me."
Suddenly, a light shined in Du You’s eyes. Yes, I can’t go up there, but I can make the Griffin come down. This wasn’t just an ordinary Griffin; it was one protecting its offspring. If its egg was threatened, the Griffin would certainly come down. However, in that case, it would expose me to danger.
This Griffin was too fast, and my spell wouldn’t hit it. What could I do to restrain it? Even though I had a restriction skill, if it can’t hit, it wouldn’t have any effect.
As for the large-scale skills, well, Light Arrow could be counted, but the Light Arrow didn’t have enough attack power. Given the Griffin’s magic resistance and tier suppression, even if it did get hit, I don’t think there would be much effect, and I can’t make all arrows hit the target.
Moreover, having been fooled once, the Griffin would certainly be on guard, which would make things even more dangerous.
Right now, I couldn’t fight or run, even stalling for time seemed impossible. I wouldn’t be able to escape without restraining the Griffin, and that would depend on luck.
To restrain the Griffin, the first step was to hit the Griffin, which led back to the original problem.
Xiaozi’s speed was certainly fast, but it was nothing compared to the opponent.
"If the Griffin enters my spiritual perception range, I can try, but the Griffin is too fast, and my spell has less than a 30% hit rate. How can I somehow restrict it?
As Du You looked around, it was just an instinctive move. But then Du You suddenly noticed something black, and his eyes lit up. "Great, maybe I could use that thing."
Du You planned to run a risky test, as there was no other option.
"Crow, fly up to the position I designate and listen to my commands. Whether we can successfully defeat the Griffin this time depends on you." Upon Du You’s command, the crow silently flew up. At the same time, the Cursed Crow King exerted all its power to display its Curse Aura, and the red light became more and more noticeable.
