Douluo—Chapter 54: Return to the Great Forest of Stars, One Minute? Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear
Dai Chengfeng and his group of four traveled for more than half a month.
In the meantime, they encountered some unfeeling bandits and wild raiders who wanted to rob them of their money and assault them.
But, unfortunately—
Bandit: "I am an outlaw, Bandit Zhang San!"
Zhu Fan: "I am a mere Soul Douluo, Zhu Fan!"
Bandit: ???
"Fuck you... Fuck!!!"
Zhu Fan: "Cool!"
The result is self-evident.
Until half a month later—
Windmill Town, is an ordinary town among many near the Star Dou Great Forest in the Kingdom of Balak.
Ding ding ding...
A white carriage finally arrived outside the town before sunset.
Two people sat in front of the carriage.
One was an old man in a gray robe with a gentle face, and the other was a middle-aged man in a black suit, with an upright posture and sharp eyes.
At this moment, the gray-robed old man looked up into the distance and saw the outline of a town looming in the afterglow of the sunset.
"Huh..."
He let out a long sigh, then turned his head slightly and said gently to the carriage: "Your Highness Chengfeng, we have arrived at Windmill Town."
"This town is the last stop before entering the Star Dou Great Forest on our route."
"It's getting late today; let's rest in town for one night, replenish supplies, and continue our journey tomorrow morning."
"Your Highness, how do you feel?"
At this point, there was a slight noise in the carriage, and a handsome blond boy gently lifted the curtain.
Looking up, he gazed at the windmill town dyed orange-red by the setting sun, then muttered to himself: "Windmill Town..."
"Okay."
The boy nodded, and a slight smile appeared at the corners of his mouth. "I just wonder if Monkey D. Luffy is here?"
"Chengfeng, what's Monkey D. Luffy?"
Zhu Fan couldn't help but look puzzled upon hearing this, then turned to Dai Chengfeng and asked curiously.
Dai Chengfeng smiled and shook his head. "Nothing..."
While talking and laughing, the carriage slowly entered the town.
Perhaps because it is adjacent to the Star Dou Great Forest, Windmill Town is very lively.
The streets are lined with all kinds of stalls.
"Don't miss it if you pass by! The best fur from a hundred-year soul beast has excellent defensive properties. Five gold soul coins for one, Ten for two!"
"Let's form a team to hunt hundred-year soul beasts! A strong attack soul master will lead the team. We have both agile attack and auxiliary soul masters. We're short of a control-type soul master—anything is fine... except those who use the Blue Silver Grass martial soul to pretend to be control-type soul masters!"
In the carriage, Dai Chengfeng looked at the noisy crowd and shook his head with a smile.
Soon, the carriage passed through the bustling streets and finally stopped in front of a large hotel.
Dai Chengfeng and his four companions simply asked for four upper rooms.
Everyone slept well through the night, and no one talked.
At dawn on the second day, the four of them, already full of energy, stood in front of the Star Dou Great Forest.
At this moment, Ye Renxin took out three sachets from his arms, a proud look on his face. "Your Highness, these sachets are specially developed by me."
"They can not only repel insects but also deter some weak soul beasts."
"After using them, there should be less trouble along the way."
"Okay."
Hearing this, Dai Chengfeng reached out to take a sachet and sniffed it gently at the tip of his nose, and a faint herbal fragrance lingered there.
In his heart, he couldn't help but understand: no wonder the last time he followed Ye Lingling out of the Star Dou Great Forest was so calm—there was such a good thing to help.
For a moment, Dai Chengfeng couldn't help but sigh in his heart: It's worthy of being the medical saint Ye Renxin!
Soon, the four of them hung the sachets around their waists.
Ye Renxin took out another map from his bosom and unfolded it.
On this map, four red dots are marked from far to near.
Ye Renxin held the map and carefully pointed the way for Dai Chengfeng and Zhu Fan, saying, "Your Highness Chengfeng,"
"I plan to hunt these five Dark Gold Terror Claw Bears from near to far. The nest of the closest one is about five days' journey southwest."
Dai Chengfeng looked at the map and nodded. "Okay, let's go!"
"Yes."
Soon, Dai Chengfeng, Zhu Fan, Ye Renxin, and Ye Lingling, a group of four, stepped into the Star Dou Great Forest.
Thanks to his previous experience, Dai Chengfeng was already very familiar with the forest, and there were no accidents on the way.
Five days passed in a flash.
At this moment, in the middle of the Star Dou Great Forest—
The tall, sturdy trees blocked out the sun, and the air was thick with dampness, mixed with the fragrance of soil and plants.
Sunlight struggled to penetrate the gaps between branches and leaves, casting mottled light and shadow, as if covering the earth with a layer of golden broken diamonds.
On the ground, thick fallen leaves piled up like mountains.
Occasionally, the roar of an unknown soul beast echoed from a distance, deepening the silence of the forest.
Rustle...
At this moment, the sound of footsteps on fallen leaves broke the tranquility.
Four people approached one after another.
Until they came to a tree that required several people to hug, Ye Renxin stopped and looked around.
Soon, a gratified smile appeared on his face, and he turned to Dai Chengfeng. "Your Highness Chengfeng, this is it!"
Hearing this, Dai Chengfeng looked around curiously, with a gleam of expectation in his eyes.
"Finally here."
Ye Renxin nodded slightly, his expression becoming solemn. He looked at Dai Chengfeng. "Your Highness, you must have heard of the power of the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear."
"Next, it all depends on your strength, Your Highness!"
Dai Chengfeng smiled confidently. "Old Ye, don't worry!"
Ye Renxin nodded slightly, though he was still a little worried.
He knew that the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear was no ordinary soul beast.
It possesses terrifying power far beyond that of other soul beasts of the same level, and its pair of extremely sharp claws can easily tear through defenses.
What's more frightening is...
Its defense is also exceptional. Ordinary soul skills hitting it are just tickling—it cannot cause any real damage.
If it weren't for the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear's overwhelming strength, Ye Renxin wouldn't have hesitated to seek out Yu Tianheng, the top genius of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family, for cooperation.
"I hope His Highness Chengfeng and Lingling can work together to kill the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear."
Ye Renxin looked at Dai Chengfeng's confident figure and silently prayed.
At the same time, he turned to Zhu Fan and solemnly warned: "Commander Zhu Fan, you are a soul master of the agility attack system. You must pay close attention during the fight."
"If His Highness falls into a disadvantage, you..."
Before Ye Renxin could finish, Zhu Fan interrupted with a relaxed smile.
He said casually, "Old Ye, you can rest assured."
Then he turned to Dai Chengfeng, a teasing smile on his face, and asked loudly: "Chengfeng, how long do you plan to take to resolve the battle?"
Hearing this, Dai Chengfeng slightly raised the corner of his mouth and held up one finger.
"One minute?" Zhu Fan raised an eyebrow. "Okay, it seems you want to play for a bit."
He leaned against a large tree, looking relaxed and unworried.
There was no trace of nervousness.
This scene surprised Ye Renxin. 'I know His Highness Chengfeng is very strong at his level…'
'But!'
'If what I saw last time in the Star Dou Great Forest is any indication, his power probably won't be enough to seriously injure the heavily defensive Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear, right?'
But just as Ye Renxin was about to ask...
Suddenly, they sensed that Dai Chengfeng and the others had entered the area.
"Ah—!"
A deafening roar echoed from nearby.
The ground began to tremble.
