This flying mutant beast was Tier 10 too—and it was a full size bigger than Golden Eagle Nugget and Pebble. Compared to the small foxes down below, it was practically a monster.
Ethan had assumed the moment the foxes saw something that huge coming in from the sky, they'd bolt.
Instead, the little foxes looked small, sure… but they were vicious as hell. They bared their teeth at the diving bird, lips curled like they were warning it to back off.
The big bird ignored them completely and lunged straight for one of the roasted Bloodfang Wolves.
That was the last mistake it made.
The foxes instantly flew into a rage. The moment the bird dropped into range, they sprang up—so fast Ethan and the others didn't even catch the movement.
The bird hadn't even processed what was happening before blood sprayed everywhere. Feathers exploded into the air. In the blink of an eye, deep wounds crisscrossed its body, gouged so deep you could see bone.
