Heroes' Prison

Chapter 283 - 278: Mutated Velociraptor (Third Release!)

Just then, seizing the opportunity, the Velociraptor charged forward, slashing viciously at the Dragon Blood Warrior Princess with its sharp forelimbs!

"Pfft!" In the next moment, the Dragon Blood Warrior Princess collapsed to the ground, her body disappearing instantly, as her split-formed being was not an incarnation; it left no corpse and vanished immediately upon death.

The Velociraptor, originally wanting to consume the corpse of the Dragon Blood Warrior Princess to boost its strength, was taken aback when nothing remained before its eyes and paused in confusion!

"Become my mount!" Just then, from behind the giant rock in front of it, Huang Yi emerged, holding those ferocious Ghost Axes and stepped toward the weakened Velociraptor.

"Roar!" The Velociraptor roared at Huang Yi as a warning, yet it dared not charge at him.

"Pursuit!" Huang Yi immediately charged forward, knocking the Velociraptor unconscious.

"Heavy Judgment!"

"Scorched Earth!"

In the next moment, Huang Yi unleashed a barrage of attacks on the Velociraptor!

After a long two seconds, the Velociraptor finally came to, but its injuries were exacerbated, and its body staggered, unable to stand much longer.

It tried to fight back against Huang Yi with all its might, but its speed had greatly reduced, rendering it hardly a threat.

Thus, Huang Yi began his most powerful onslaught around the gravely injured Velociraptor, engaging in a mobile fight.

Blood flowed from the Velociraptor, dropping onto the scorched earth and magma below, turning into wisps of blue smoke.

After the battle continued for a while, the Velociraptor couldn’t hold on any longer, collapsing stiffly, too injured to move, allowing Huang Yi to do as he pleased.

"Whew!" Huang Yi breathed a sigh of relief and immediately ceased his attacks, pulling out a set of reins from his storage ring, squatting down, and fitting them over the Velociraptor like one would a horse, securing its head firmly.

"Click!" As the last buckle of the reins clicked into place, Huang Yi received a System Prompt—

"[System Prompt]: You have successfully captured a Velociraptor (Advanced Fourth Rank), its strength will be adjusted according to your level. Would you like to heal the Velociraptor’s injuries?"

From then on, the Velociraptor was his!

It was an Advanced Fourth Rank mount, and currently, there were very few people in The Second World who possessed such a mount.

Huang Yi took a deep breath and immediately chose to heal the Velociraptor’s injuries.

At that moment, mysterious milky white light radiated from the Earth Dragon Reins, entering the Velociraptor’s body, and its wounds visibly healed at a rapid rate, recovering completely.

"[System Prompt]: The Velociraptor’s injuries have healed, you may use the reins to store it in the subspace."

The Earth Dragon Reins were not just a set of reins but also functioned as a storage item, similar to storage rings and necklaces. The only difference was that it was designed to store mounts, whereas storage rings and necklaces couldn’t directly store pets.

Now that the Velociraptor had recovered, it immediately rose from the ground, looking at Huang Yi with large, affectionate eyes. It affectionately lowered its head into Huang Yi’s embrace, nuzzling as if to cuddle.

Huang Yi smiled slightly, reaching out to stroke its head and feeling its sturdy body.

This Velociraptor was the fastest among all Earthwalking Dragons, and now he had such a formidable means of transportation, and it also possessed a certain Attack Power, making it the perfect mount that other players could only dream of.

"You go inside and wait for a bit; I’ll take you out soon," said Huang Yi, as he pulled the reins, storing the Velociraptor away, then left the small valley, returning to the outside world.

After leaving the small valley, Huang Yi summoned the Velociraptor again, patted its head, and said, "You’re the fastest; take me for a spin!"

The Velociraptor nodded and lay down, lowering its head.

Huang Yi lifted his leg and mounted the Velociraptor’s back, gripping the reins in his hands like a steering wheel, directing as he pleased.

The Velociraptor stood up, its body reaching over two meters tall, with Huang Yi riding high above, immediately feeling the tense muscles of the Velociraptor beneath him, filled with power.

"Charge!" Huang Yi pulled the reins and spat out a word.

Suddenly, the Velociraptor, like an arrow released from its bow, charged out with lightning speed. It soared through the forest and, in the blink of an eye, reached the distance.

All Huang Yi could hear was the wind whistling by his ears, and in front of him was a flowing world. The trees on either side flew past quickly; the golden sunset flickered through the gaps in the leaves, turning into a stream of light!

He felt as though he was flying, the earth beneath the Velociraptor’s feet seeming incredibly tiny, able to traverse great distances in a single bound.

This Velociraptor was indeed the fastest Earthwalking Dragon. Huang Yi was now truly experiencing the thrill of racing; only such a mount truly suited his idea of transportation—each step taking him to a different world, the scenery changing completely in the next moment.

At this time, various Earthwalking Dragons continually whizzed past Huang Yi, but he could only catch a rough glimpse of them. The Velociraptor easily weaved through the herd of dragons in the forest, untouched, as if leaves never settled on it. Even some extremely powerful Earthwalking Dragons couldn’t catch up to it.

"Velociraptor, do you know where there might be a Tyrannosaurus Rex or a Tyrant Dragon? Take me to have a look!" Huang Yi patted the Velociraptor’s neck and said.

The Velociraptor immediately nodded its head and charged in another direction.

The Velociraptor raced through Earth Dragon Valley, bursting out of the forest, crossing the prairie, and leaping over ravines. It had excellent balance; Huang Yi didn’t feel any jolts while riding, as if he were in a car.

Gradually, night fell. The pure Bright Moon showered its silvery glow, illuminating the secluded Earth Dragon Valley. However, it didn’t bring any sense of tranquility, instead casting a landscape of danger and eeriness.

By this time, the Velociraptor had brought Huang Yi to a completely new forest.

The trees in this forest were noticeably taller than the previous one, with wide gaps between them. On some tree trunks, you could see marks left by sharp claws—huge scratches that certainly could not be made by a Velociraptor, probably by some mightier Earthwalking Dragon. In the depths of the night, branches shook—whether due to the night wind or a passing Earthwalking Dragon, the atmosphere of the entire forest was enough to make one’s hair stand on end.

Upon arriving here, the Velociraptor was visibly more tense, its eyes warily watching for any movement around.

It seemed this was the territory of the formidable attacking Earthwalking Dragons; you could probably encounter Raptors, Scythe Dragons, Special Dragons, and even Tyrannosaurus Rexes and Tyrant Dragons.

"Let’s take a stroll! Slow down, I’ll search for the target," Huang Yi stroked the Velociraptor’s neck, urging it to take small steps forward.

A man and his dragon tread lightly on the patchy moonlight in this perilous forest, not knowing its vastness or when a ferocious Earthwalking Dragon might suddenly emerge.

"Hm? Dragon Eggshells." While walking, Huang Yi suddenly noticed some broken shells under a tree. The shells were glossy and undamaged, the residue of the yolks inside still fresh, indicating an Earthwalking Dragon had just been feeding there.

Huang Yi looked around cautiously. Any Earthwalking Dragon that might appear here was extremely fearsome, not to be underestimated. However, no matter where he looked, there was only the silent moonlight.

"Roar!" Just then, a roar came from the distant forest, full of a domineering presence that shook the earth to its core. Huang Yi could clearly feel the Velociraptor beneath him shudder at the sound, its body trembling with apparent fear.

Huang Yi reached out to pet its skull, calming it down. With the Velociraptor’s speed, they could easily escape a Tyrannosaurus Rex, unless surrounded by a group—and since they were solitary creatures, hostile to each other, it was unlikely for them to appear in groups.

"Let’s go have a look!" Huang Yi squeezed the dragon’s belly with his legs, propelling it toward the source of the roar.

"Roar!" The roar sounded again at that moment, but this time there seemed to be a hint of fear in it, as if it had encountered a more formidable opponent!

Gradually, Huang Yi rode the Velociraptor up a small hill and looked down from the top.

"Boom!" In the forest below, it was clear to see trees being forcibly knocked down by brute force, with glimpses of a Giant Beast charging in this direction, devastating any tree in its path!

Behind the Giant Beast, a large expanse of trees trembled non-stop like waves, but it was unclear what they concealed.

From this scene, it was apparent that ahead lied a formidable Earthwalking Dragon, but behind it, there was a group of something pursuing it.

"Roar!" Just then, the beast in front came to the base of the hill, and since there were no trees in that area, the beast’s full form was revealed.

Huang Yi looked closely under the moonlight and saw the Giant Beast’s figure quite clearly!

It was another Earthwalking Dragon, but in stark contrast to the Velociraptor, filled with an overbearing aura. Standing at six to seven meters tall and of heavy build, probably weighing tons, with muscles not in defined sections but in large lumps, its two robust hind legs were like stone pillars that made the ground quiver with each stomp.

The most terrifying part was its head, which almost made up a third of its body and seemed disproportionate to its large size, as if the whole body was just there to support the massive head.

On that giant head was a huge mouth, the teeth inside like Sharp Swords, filling the enormous maw. (To be continued.
