Thousand-Faced Dragon

Chapter 261 The Hunting Squad
The temporary squad consists of only three people: Rean, Red Arrow, and Hela.

A hunting and killing squad doesn't need too many people.

As soon as they entered the arena, they began to rampage without hesitation, quickly stealing the spotlight from a minor mirror demon.

"Overlooking the world. Uh."

Rean reactivated Hawkeye's bloodline ability as requested by Red Feather Arrow.

Then, I experienced the discomfort of being naked again.

The one who overlooks the world refers to the eagle itself.

Possessing the "authority of the sky," it can always stand "high" and look down on its "ground" opponents.

This is a kind of forced observation of a lower dimension by a higher dimension, which is the eagle's original and most basic ability to turn a first-person perspective into a god-like perspective from above.

However, when used underground, Rean's "vision" would inexplicably collide with the ground.

After using it for more than a minute, the field of view became unstable, constantly drifting up and down, and I had no idea where it was connected to.

"That shouldn't be the case. Your Hawkeye technique originates from me, your bloodline and memes are very stable, and your strength seems to be quite high."

Red Feather Arrow is a bit hard to understand, since Rean's "Hawk Eye" is supposed to be very powerful.

Even new recruits of their own kind have no reason not to maintain their "viewpoint." It's an instinct of blood; do they need someone else to teach them how to use their own "eyes"?

"Could it be that I don't have enough hardware to support it? You see, although I borrowed your eyes, I don't have your brain."

The sensory system is never independent; the brain and neural networks must provide corresponding support for it to function stably. Rean's conjecture is highly likely to come true.

Is there a solution? Rean probably does, let's give it a try.

"Alright, that works! The field of vision is stable now."

Rean sighed, pausing his analysis of the fireball spell and focusing his second line of thought on "aided observation," instantly clearing his vision.

Ultimately, it's a matter of insufficient "brainpower," so let's get a second brain.

Kuku's own combat ability is tragic, but the characteristics he developed are extremely useful in all aspects.

"Let's see if we can turn it into a three-headed dragon and branch out another line." What Rean originally thought was a superfluous thought process is now proving to be incredibly useful the more he uses it.

Unlike Kuku's other heirs, Rean doesn't have to worry about the mental breakdown caused by extra thought lines.

The problem is that advancing this bloodline requires hunting dragons, which is a bit tricky.

"found it"

Using a "high-dimensional" perspective, Rean easily adjusted and "blurred" the wall in his field of vision, achieving a de facto "wall-penetrating" effect.

This is the eagle's privilege; no matter what kind of metal or rock structure it is, nothing can block its eyes. This is actually the main reason why eagles can threaten owls during the day. Once the "signature" is locked, it is only a matter of time before they can be found in a limited area.

However, given Rean's current level, he can only traverse a few dozen meters in this underground ruin filled with divine power.

"Locked up, wait a minute, let me find the route."

Rean used all his mental constructs, calculating with all his might, and then led the way without hesitation.

"boom!"

He slammed his head against the wall, creating a large crater, which only fueled the laughter outside.

Rean sighed and turned around again.

Not only do these two perspectives, one looking straight ahead and the other looking down, but they also have built-in fading and wall-penetrating abilities. While they make hunting feel like having a cheat code, sometimes it's really hard to tell where you are.

"boom!"

He ran into the west wall, then the east wall.

I can't tell them apart, I really can't tell them apart.

However, if the lock is stopped, the target will likely disappear completely again within a few dozen seconds.
"Uh."

A soft hand clung to Rean's palm. The masked girl silently expressed her concern and prevented Rean from bumping into the wall again. Rean smiled and thanked her, while Dania, who was watching from outside, was mocking him one second and then snapped her own royal feather fan in two the next.

Those in the know didn't say much; they also guessed that Rean was using some special ability to scout, which was why he had lost his normal eyesight.

"This way."

This time, Rean ran at full speed. If he went astray, Hela could easily tug at him to change direction and avoid another tragic crash into the wall.

However, it seems that their reconnaissance capabilities failed them, and right before everyone's eyes, the three-person team walked into a dead end surrounded by walls on three sides.

Rean, who was giving directions, remained silently looking ahead, showing no intention of turning back.
"Did we go the wrong way?" Hela asked.

“No.” Rean calmly raised the Hero’s Sword, holy power gathering upon it.

"Breaking Sword. Breaking Boundary!"

The two-handed sword, gripped tightly, suddenly burst downwards.

The "Wallbreaker" was fully activated, and even soil infused with a slight divine power crumbled instantly.

What most people considered an unbreakable, solid foundation was suddenly blasted open.

With just this one strike, Rean pierced through the ground and began his descent.
"what?!"

Meanwhile, the horned creature below, which was eating, was completely dumbfounded with its mouth full of blood.

"Die, evil!"

The golden light of the Demon-Slaying Slash had already enveloped the unfortunate horned disciple.

Jiao, despite his rationality, was completely stunned by the surprise attack. Only then did he realize that the beast-transformed slash had severed most of his shoulder and head.

If Rean hadn't already used a burst of power when breaking through the wall, this sword strike could have directly torn the Horned Servant to pieces!
However, this attack had already dealt a heavy blow, and the other smaller beasts roared and pounced.

"Dragon! Dragon! Dragon!"

With his Dragon Eyes still open, Rean is probably filled with hatred for them on this battlefield.

"Snapped!"

But the horde did not complete the encirclement; Hela landed behind Rean, blocking his weak point from behind.

Those small beasts that charged the fastest were cut down and blocked by Hela's swift sword before they could fully transform. Rean didn't need to worry about what was behind him.

Rean seized the opportunity to chase after the horned thug and slash wildly.

Hearts shattered, skulls pierced. Each sword strike sent flying large amounts of flesh and blood.

The fully transformed horned beast is still barely clinging to life, but the opponent who once posed a great threat to Rean is now just a slow-moving target in Rean's eyes.

Rean's "Dragon Eye" has also subtly mutated, and after merging with Hawkeye, his ability to capture movements has become even more acute.

"pain!"

But the sudden pain in his eyes made him cry out in pain.

It seems that while the eyes have been upgraded, other hardware has not kept up.

After being used for so long, it overheated completely and reached its limit ahead of schedule.

"It's alright. We don't need our eyes to deal with this kind of trash!" Rean stopped Hela's helpers to avoid disrupting the team's battle rhythm.

Rean simply closed his eyes, but two drops of bloody tears still slowly dripped down.

"Die, evil!"

In the narrow passage, with nowhere to hide from the opponent, the ferocious beast encountered an even more ferocious paladin.

Avoidance? Not a chance.

Let's go at it head-on! Let's see who dies first!

The knight in black dragon armor donned his black dragon helmet, and the fully covered knight wildly and violently swung his sword.

The brutal horned beast had completely transformed into a beast. The nearly three-meter-tall monster frantically tore at its opponent, but each time the sword fell, a large piece would break off, while the beast's claws, which should have been able to cut through iron like mud, only left scratch marks.

The beast that stood upright was instead slashed and forced to retreat and howl in agony, but this scream only brought on more ferocious blows.

If it weren't for the radiance and burst of holy power on the sword, the black-armored knight who was blocking the door and killing indiscriminately would have looked more like a villain, while his opponent was shouting softer and softer.

"That's enough, that's enough."

She didn't know when, but even the falling red feather arrows looked at the pile of minced meat in front of Rean with disdain. This meat paste, a mixture of dirt and blood, completely killed her appetite.

When Rean opened his eyes, he noticed that all that was in front of him was a pool of minced meat.

His sword wound had landed on the wall, scattering a lot of gravel.

Even the largest of these utterly arrogant cannibalistic horns is probably no bigger than a basketball.

"Next one, there's one more on this floor."

"Yes, I'll hold your hand."

Hela reached out again, and Dania outside broke off another spare folding fan.
