Chapter 1392: Chapter 730: Thief 3-Man Team_3

"No, something’s off about these Flying Dragons’ size. Look at those three leading the pack, they’re at least twice the size of ordinary ones."

"Could it be that the surrounding Flying Dragons are all juvenile ones?"

"Look at the way they fly, they certainly don’t look like juvenile Flying Dragons."

"Cloud Manta, it’s the Cloud Manta. That beast isn’t at Giant Peak, but is hiding in the nearby mountain, and the Flying Dragon Flock is hunting it."

"Are these Flying Dragons crazy? With such a size difference, even if they manage to kill the Cloud Manta, they will pay a heavy price themselves."

"Flying Dragons are known for being berserk and brutal, what rationality do they have?"

"Hmm, is it my illusion? Among those Flying Dragons, there are not just dragons, but also human figures. Could it be that this Flying Dragon Flock is not wild, but controlled and raised by some powerful entity?"

"There’s no news of anyone nearby raising so many Flying Dragons."

"Never mind all that, they’re in conflict, giving us the perfect opportunity to act. Quick, quick, quick, hurry to the top, or it’ll be too late for us."

"Why climb? We’re totally in the wrong place, the Cloud Manta’s lair is on another mountain."

"We’re not in the wrong place. That cunning beast is playing a game of three hiding spots. Giant Peak is its true lair. The place it just hid is just a watchpoint to monitor Giant Peak. If it’s really at Giant Peak, we might just make a wasted trip."

"That assumption is plausible and reasonable. We have no choice now but to gamble that Torme’s guess is correct."

The thief trio couldn’t be bothered whether they were exposed or not. They went full out, cooperating with each other as they ran towards Giant Peak.

The Ghost Cloak’s Shadow Meld ability is indeed powerful, but it has a not-so-big, not-so-small flaw: it can only be used in shadowy places, and if exposed under sunlight, it cannot be activated.

Once used, they become similar to Shadow Energy Bodies. Their movement speed is no longer determined by their best skill, Dexterity, but by their Perception Power, which greatly slows down their movement.

With speed at maximum, the thief trio displayed skillful cooperation. The human female thief and Half-Elf male thief held hands and acted directly as a springboard, easily sending the Demi-Human thief, who finds climbing the most troublesome, upwards. With a light push, they followed up.

The Demi-Human thief first rushed to the next step, squatted firmly, and made himself a human step, directly sending the two companions, who were sprinting towards him, up successively.

The two companions, who ascended the steps first, each grabbed one of the Demi-Human thief’s hands and directly flung him upwards.

The Demi-Human thief somersaulted several times in mid-air and landed on consecutive steps.

Repeating this process, after a few rounds, they effortlessly climbed over a dozen Giant steps.

Earlier, they didn’t proceed this way because it was very energy-consuming, much like rapid running cannot be sustained for long.

In unknown future dangerous situations, conserving energy is crucial, whether for attack or escape.

The thief trio, while quickly climbing Giant Peak, didn’t forget to observe the rare aerial battle.

In their hearts, they couldn’t help but sincerely admire, deserving its reputation as the mightiest of all flying creatures. Even most Ancient Ancient Dragons feel ashamed in its presence.

After all, it has wings more magnificent than even a Giant Dragon’s. When unfolded, they resemble a triangular cloud, making its figure appear even larger, although this cloud has a massive, spiky tail.

If the Cloud Manta was alone in the air, due to distance and visual misdirection, it would be hard to feel its enormity. But when surrounded by a dozen Flying Dragons and a silhouette resembling a human, the comparison becomes immediate.

Even a dozen Flying Dragons, lined up head-to-tail with wings touching, don’t seem as large as the Cloud Manta.

However, compared to the fluttering Flying Dragons, the Cloud Manta appears clumsy and slow.

The Flying Dragon Flock has already circled around the Cloud Manta several times, yet it has not reached the height of Giant Peak.

Its flying mode is also very unique, unlike birds or Giant Dragons, which continuously flap their wings to provide lift.

Throughout, it has never done so; its wings remain steadily outstretched.

In fact, the Cloud Manta cannot do this. It is like a massive kite, with a huge dragon bone structure between its wings and body, fixing them rigidly.

The real propulsion for its flight comes from its body generating gas lighter than air, so the Cloud Manta doesn’t fly; it floats in the air.

Propelling it forward are long wing-like muscular membranes along its body sides, capable of flapping like wings.

More precisely, these wings are far more flexible than ordinary wings. They can move not only up and down but also left, right, forward, backward, and diagonally. The Cloud Manta can control them to flap.

This trait allows it not only to fly forward and backward but also to fly sideways, increasing its in-flight directional maneuverability far beyond ordinary creatures.

Unfortunately, hindered by its massive size, its movement speed in any direction is quite slow.

But the Flying Dragon Flock doesn’t dare to get too close to the Cloud Manta.

The huge size ensures it has terrifying strength. If hit by its gigantic tail hammer, damage could be much worse than broken ribs or fractured ligaments; it could smash one into a meat patty on the spot.

And the Cloud Manta’s attack ways are not limited to just this. Occasionally, several unassuming stones fly out from where it previously perched, hurling toward the surrounding Flying Dragons.

When they miss and land on the ground, they create a tremendous crash, proving they aren’t just insignificant pebbles, but large stones with considerable weight.

Psychic Control.

This is the innate special ability of the Cloud Manta, a magic beast with low intelligence but possessing Psychic Ability to compensate for its lack of hands and feet.

But is the Cloud Manta’s Psychic Ability really so strong? Can it effortlessly hurl hundreds of kilograms of giant stones?
