Chapter 1211: Chapter 498: Encountering the Giant Eagle for the Third Time_2 Chapter 1211: Chapter 498: Encountering the Giant Eagle for the Third Time_2 Lightning swiftly expanded, baring its fangs as if ready to pounce.

Jiang Shixue’s hands revealed a dagger, poised to charge at the Giant Eagle the moment Wang Tao gave the order.

Wang Tao’s instinct was to use [Scorching Eyes], having long wanted to teach the Giant Eagle a lesson with his long-range attack ability. The memory of being chased by the eagle twice before was still fresh in his mind, and he held a grudge.

But after pondering for a mere fraction of a second, Wang Tao immediately dismissed the idea.

After all, the Giant Eagle could fly and wasn’t some mindless zombie. What if it felt it couldn’t win and fled? After all, the ray had limited range…

Wang Tao didn’t want to be constantly on the radar of an enemy in the sky. If he was going to fight, he needed to take it down in one go!

So before making contact with the Giant Eagle, it was necessary to play dumb and not scare it away!

As a result, Wang Tao did not use the ray, and he didn’t even charge forward. Instead, he raised his left hand, pointing a ring carved with a red flower at Blacky.

[Red Flower Ring]

[Fifth Rank (Excellent)]

[Special Ability: Capture Net (100% Energy)]

[Capture Net: Consumes stored energy to launch a capture net]

This was a ring he had acquired before, and it was perfect for use on the Giant Eagle.

While the story was long, events unfolded in an instant. Before the others had fully opened their eyes, the Giant Eagle had already swooped in.

Whoosh—

The steel-like wings caused a tumultuous wind, making everyone scarcely able to stand, instantly stumbling around.

In the blink of an eye, the Giant Eagle was before Blacky. If those iron-hook like claws caught Blacky, it would likely not die but might be severely injured.

However, Wang Tao keenly noticed a slight hesitation in the Giant Eagle’s movements, as if he had spotted a hint of surprise in its eyes.

Clearly, the Giant Eagle recognized Wang Tao and his party. After all, Wang Tao had escaped from its clutches twice before!

This time, it definitely wouldn’t let its prey get away, even though it sensed that this prey seemed a bit stronger.

Before the Giant Eagle pounced on Blacky, Wang Tao activated the Capture Net.

Swish—

A tiny white dot shot out from his ring, then instantly expanded into a large net! Caught off guard, the Giant Eagle was immediately ensnared by the Capture Net.

However, due to the Giant Eagle’s large size, the Capture Net could only cover one of its wings, but that was sufficient!

Chirp—

Suddenly bound, the Giant Eagle’s flight path was altered. Not only did it fail to capture Blacky, but it also crashed to the ground.

Boom—

Everyone felt the ground shake, and only then did they, squinting against the bright light, manage to open their eyes. What they saw was the Giant Eagle standing up from the ground, spreading its wings wide and obscuring the sun.

“…”

Cheng Yiyi and the others were somewhat dumbfounded.

What was happening here? They had just emerged from underground, blinking in the light, and suddenly a Level 5 Monster Lord was before them?

And the pressure from this Level 5 Monster Lord was much greater than any Level 5 Lord they had encountered before—wait a minute! Wasn’t this that very Giant Eagle!

The members of the Sixth Legion were somewhat panicked, knowing full well the strength of this Giant Eagle—no person, not even any zombies or monsters, could rival it! They had seen with their own eyes the Giant Eagle hunting down Level 5 Monster Lords while they were on missions outside!

“Wang Tao—”

Cheng Yiyi instinctively wanted to call for Wang Tao, but there was no sign of him nearby! Upon closer look, Wang Tao had already rushed to the Giant Eagle’s front!

Swoosh—

Taking advantage of the moment the Giant Eagle’s wing was hit by the Capture Net and it was forced to land, Wang Tao charged straight at the Giant Eagle. By the time the Giant Eagle quickly rose from the ground, Wang Tao had reached its front.

Without any hesitation, Wang Tao suddenly leaped.

Using his Jump Ability, he easily jumped onto the broad back of the Giant Eagle.

The Giant Eagle harshly tore through the Capture Net, ready to take off again, but it was too late.

Wang Tao’s wrist suddenly shot out several tendrils that tightly wound around the Giant Eagle’s feathers.

The Level 3 biological weapon [Iron Tree Vines] hadn’t been used much lately, but now, they were just the right tool!

Ensuring he wouldn’t be thrown off for the moment, Wang Tao’s other hand instantly produced a spear.

The spear glowed with a black light as it was viciously thrust toward the Giant Eagle’s head.

Clang—

Wang Tao felt as if he had struck a steel plate.

[-8293]

[Curse: Bleeding]

“…”

Seeing the damage number, Wang Tao was somewhat stunned.

He was now at Level 5 and wielding a spear with extremely high attack power, yet this thrust hadn’t even reached ten thousand damage?

The defensive power of this Giant Eagle was probably about the same as that of the Fifth-Order Catastrophic mutant giant tree he had previously killed!

Deservedly so for a Giant Awakening with extremely high growth potential. Very strong!

“You guys go first!”

Wang Tao shouted to the others.

Although they wanted to assist Wang Tao, the Giant Eagle was already flying away with him, and they were of no help. Staying behind would only cause chaos, so they decisively drove away. Staying at this point would only cause trouble for Wang Tao.

The slight damage Wang Tao caused naturally wasn’t much for the Giant Eagle, but it was irritated. It didn’t care about the others fleeing; it just wanted to shake Wang Tao off and then devour him!

Whoosh—

The Giant Eagle spread its wings and soared into the sky, a fierce wind assaulting everyone again, knocking many people down.

But with the help of the Iron Tree Vines, Wang Tao stood firm as if rooted to the spot, unmoved, and shot with [Scorching Eyes] toward the back of the Giant Eagle’s head.

Sizzle—

[-3278]

[-3369]

[-3274]

[…]

The high-temperature ray could cause only a little over three thousand damage every half a second, roughly the same damage as when Wang Tao attacked that Fifth-Order Catastrophic mutant giant tree.
