Chapter 187 Giving A Violent Thrashing


    With a resounding boom, a fireball was catapulted from Uriah''s tail and heavily hit the iron-hard shell of


    the stronger three-star Dark Heaven Insect. With a shower of blinding sparks, its shell began to smoke.


    A few meters away, Rocky could sense that Uriah had greatly weakened in physical strength and


    speed. The Dark Heaven Insect seized the opportunity and struck at Uriah, wiping it out. Because of


    the enormous consumption of its physical strength, Uriah rolled over on the ground before it could


    stagger and stand up. Fortunately, it wasn''t hurt badly.


    Seeing Uriah being knocked down, Rocky was about to step in to offer some help. However, at the


    moment, a beast as small as a dog ran out. Standing before Uriah, it made threatening gestures to the


    Dark Heaven Insect, valiant despite its harmless size.


    "Little Rubygon!" Rocky cried out. He was totally astounded when he recognized the small creature,


    totally not expecting it toe rushing out to defend Uriah. However, Little Rubygon''s power was


    nowhere near the caliber of the Dark Heaven Insect.


    The Dark Heaven Insect was visibly irritated by the small beast in front of it. Without hesitation, it ran


    right at Little Rubygon, who would be killed or severely wounded if a collision happened. Rocky could


    only watch in horror, with no time to save poor Little Rubygon.


    But all of a sudden, a beast jumped forward to keep Little Rubygon behind it. It took the blow from the


    collision of the Dark Heaven Insect. With a deafening bang, the impact wave spread to all directions,

    dirt and stones flying as though they had been swept up in a hurricane. The ground was shrouded in


    dust.


    Uriah whimpered. It waspletely exhausted and couldn''t take it anymore, copsing on the ground.


    However, at the moment, the Dark Heaven Insect was preparing tounch a second attack. Uriah was


    in a critical condition. Its life was in great peril!


    "Whistle!" A bone arrow zoomed rapidly through the air, sinking neatly into the hind leg of the Dark


    Heaven Insect. Pushed by the mighty momentum of the arrow, the Dark Heaven Insect lost its bnce


    and tumbled down on its back.


    At the point, Rocky darted towards the Dark Heaven Insect, tightly clutching the Frozen Wind Dagger.


    He stabbed its soft underside, and the Centipede-snake''s venom seeped instantly into its bloodstream.


    Almost right away, the Dark Heaven Insect was totally paralyzed, unable to fight back at all.


    "Uriah!" Rocky shouted as he rushed to Uriah, which was hobbling to stand up. Going through the


    second violent collision, Uriah looked miserable. It was clear that it was suffering through a great deal


    of pain. However, after a careful examination, Rocky diagnosed that apart from some side effects of the


    collision, there was no fatal wound inflicted. He breathed a sigh of relief, patting Uriah gently.


    Little Rubygon ran over to Uriah and whimpered, as if to thank it for saving its life. Uriah bowed its head


    to rub against Little Rubygon''s,forting the distressed beast.


    Rocky turned back to look at the two Dark Heaven Insects. Though Rocky had brought them under


    control, he was scratching his head at how he could possibly transport them back. Last time, he had


    captured only one Dark Heaven Insect, so the situation was easier to handle. But two Dark Heaven


    Insects were a different story, and they were pretty big to boot. It was going to be a really tricky problem


    to bring the two Dark Heaven Insects back without raising the attention of soldiers of the northeast


    military camp.


    It was a pity that Rocky wasn''t a spirit maniptor at the Heavenly Stage, or he could deal with the two


    Dark Heaven Insects without making an effort. After all, when a spirit maniptor reached the


    Heavenly Stage, he or she would be able to open the Magic Spiritual Space which was capable of


    connecting one space with another. With the Magic Spiritual Space, Rocky could have carried the


    spirit-manipted beast with him to avoid unnecessary trouble and others'' attention. Even more


    beneficial was the fact that when a spirit maniptor evolved beyond the Heavenly Stage, his spirit-


    manipted beast would gradually grow into a giant one along with his increase in power. Once this


    happened, his spirit-manipted beast couldn''t enter towns and cities. Otherwise, it would wreak great


    damage in its path. In other words, the Magic Spiritual Space was a must for the spirit maniptor in


    multiple aspects of life.


    Rocky took down the bottle containing the magical saliva and put it away in case that other wild spirit-


    manipted beasts would be attracted. His spiritual power had almost run out and Uriah''s reserves


    had also reached its extreme limit. If they met any other powerful wild spirit-manipted beasts, they


    would be in great trouble indeed.


    For the sake of security, however, Rocky took a drop of the magical saliva and also gave one to Uriah


    so that they could both recover their physical strength and spiritual power as soon as possible. Rather


    than suffer an unexpected attack, he decided that the wise thing to do was utilize two precious drops of


    the magical saliva.


    After two hours, Rocky had recovered a lot with the magical saliva. By now, he had the energy to


    brainstorm about how to transport the two Dark Heaven Insects back to the northeast military camp.


    All of a sudden, a sharp hooting came not far away. "Damn! Hurry up, or I will stew you as my supper!


    You jerks!"


    At the sound of this voice, Rocky''s eyes shed like lightning. He moved quickly behind a giant rock


    and looked into the distance. He saw some spirit maniptors dressed in military uniforms, escorting


    two lorries of wood through the Carcass Valley. The spirit-manipted beasts pulling the lorries were


    called bald camels. Though they were at a very low level, they were mighty and docile and were ideal


    for this function. They were agile and able to walk on any dangerously steepndforms. Therefore, they


    were often used like horses to transport army provisions and other heavy stuff.


    Rocky looked the spirit maniptors up and down and found that their military uniforms were


    embroidered with "northwest military camp". It seemed that it was a team of spirit maniptors


    responsible for escort of the northwest military camp. On average, their power was at the fifth grade of


    the Mortal Stage.


    At the sight of the two lorries, Rocky got an idea as his eyes lit up. Immediately, he tore a piece of cloth


    and masked his face, then rushed towards the team like a shadow.


    Those bald camels appeared to have sensed a certain aura, so all of them balked in fear. The spirit


    maniptors instantly cracked the whips in their hands to drive them forward. They assumed the poor


    beasts were simply feelingzy and scolded, "Move! Don''t bezy!"


    Regardless of the maltreatment, the bald camels stood still, staring straight ahead and trembling. It


    seemed as if they were frightened at something and dared not move on.


    At the point, the spirit maniptors noticed that a figure standing far ahead got in their way. They


    couldn''t figure out whether he was hostile or not.


    "Hey! Who are you? Get out of the way! Don''t mess with us! Don''t get in the way! You want to die?"


    one of the spirit maniptors bellowed as he stepped forward. He was arrogant and aggressive, and


    Rocky disliked him immediately.


    "Leave the lorries and the bald camels, and you will leave with your life," Rocky called out. He nned


    to snatch the two lorries and the bald camels. With them, he could effortlessly transport the two Dark


    Heaven Insects back. Since there were many bushrangers here, no one would think of him as a


    criminal.


    "Did you hear that?" The team leader burst into peals of mockingughter, looking around at the other


    spirit maniptors. They all saw this strange man as an overconfident wretch.


    "Captain, he really thinks he''s going to plunder us!" one of the spirit maniptors replied as he


    guffawed.


    "Ha-ha! Plunder us? He must be kidding. Doesn''t he recognize that we''re the spirit maniptors of the


    northwest military camp? Doesn''t he know our power is much beyond his? Has he been living under a


    rock? He really wants to plunder us. What a joke! He must be tired of living," the team leader sneered.


    Of course, Rocky''s aura seemed faint to them, so the team leader naturally assumed that he was no


    big deal. He was convinced that Rocky was too arrogant about his power.


    "You! Go to teach him a lesson. Show him he is nowhere near qualified to plunder the goods of the


    northwest military camp. Send him home!" the team leader ordered the fellow spirit maniptors.


    Instantly, they encircled Rocky, brimming with confidence though none of them were particrly


    powerful. They were no match for Rocky and soon found this out, much to their horror.


    Momentster, with their mouths full of blood, several figures, beaten ck and blue, rolled groaning


    on the ground. Some of them even had several of their teeth knocked out. Under this violent attack,


    their faces were marred almost to the point of not being recognizable.
