Continued from the previous chapter

Soda yawned boredly and walked lazily through his territory, where the normally invincible beings fled in fear into the distance, and then watched the master of the forest in awe from a distance that did not offend the majesty of the other while keeping himself safe. In this hundreds of square kilometers of forest, this demon elephant is a well-deserved overlord, although its strength has begun to decline, and its 'essence' strength is not as good as before, it can still easily crush any challenger in its way, and the huge magical power is more and more abundant with the years, unless there are outsiders, before it enters the grave, no creature that settles in its territory can shake its authority.

Soda was content with this life, and after years of fighting and fighting to establish itself, all it had to do now was to walk around the territory every day on a routine basis, and then enjoy the food offered by its subjects in peace, which was enough for a monster without great ambitions to have any greater luxury. Looking at the demonic beasts in the distance, Suoda was full of satisfaction and relief, "It's really a good afternoon. The Elephant thought to himself, "Perhaps, I should take advantage of this weather to be more active, a long hunt is a good idea." Noticing its growing waist, it thought of the rumors it had heard from other monsters lately about adventurers who had broken into the jungle, and secretly made up its mind.

The demonic beasts that were quietly surrounding the demon suddenly moved uneasily, which made Soda who was thinking about his hunting plan feel angry, this was a contempt for its authority, and the demon's fierce eyes looked in the direction where the 'commotion' came from, ready to find out the maker of the 'commotion' and 'chaos'.

It quickly found its target, because all the monsters in that direction except for them had fallen in a pool of blood, and their bodies were 'inserted' with crossbow arrows that only contained poison.

Kadar stood silently, looking at the behemoth in front of him, the staff in his hand flashing red, and a powerful magic was rapidly taking shape. In front of him, his 'squires' who had been blessed with defensive magic formed a strong line of defense, armed with improvised spell-infused crossbows and various weapons, tasked with holding back as much as possible the elephant's path before the magic was complete.

"It's those human adventurers. As the thought flashed through Soda's mind, the huge body of the demon elephant had already rushed to the samurai, and the two thick tusks pierced the barrier that the samurai in the front row had built with their shields like sharp spears. Behind it, the monsters that had been following it from afar did not act together, they just stayed where they were, watching the overlords of the jungle attack the invaders - the monsters think differently than humans, and since they are subservient to Sodar and use their prey to keep this demon elephant, when someone tries to harm them or wants to invade the territory, Soda must 'stand up' and take responsibility for protecting them.

Raindrops of crossbow arrows from the hands of the warriors standing at the back 'shot', these special crossbow arrows can penetrate the heavy armor within a hundred meters, the poison contained on it comes from a certain demon poisonous insects, as long as it is scratched a little skin, the toxin will quickly penetrate from the skin into the body, just now those enough to wipe out a small army of the monster under the sneak attack of the destruction has fully confirmed its poisonous 'nature'.

The huge body of the demon elephant is undoubtedly a good target, almost not a single crossbow arrow 'shoots' off, nearly a hundred pure steel crossbow arrows fell on Suoda's body, but they could only penetrate the skin outside, for the demon elephant whose body is nearly twice as large as an ordinary elephant, this kind of damage is not much greater than a mosquito bite. With even greater rage, Soda let out a deafening roar, speeding up the impact.

The impact of the 3,000-kilogram behemoth at high speed was far beyond anyone's imagination, and despite being blessed with various magic spells to improve their abilities, and despite being the best warriors themselves, the 'squire' samurai standing in the first row could not resist the attack of the demon elephants. At the slightest touch, the samurai with one-man shields flew into the sky like straw thrown into the sky, the protection of magic saved them from death, but they were not spared, and when these samurai fell from the air to the ground, none of them could get back up.

The squire' warriors' defenses weren't all ineffective, at least, they slowed down Soda. At the same time as the defense line of his companions was broken, the spear-wielding samurai in the second row dodged to both sides, except for a few who were hit by the Golem due to their slow movements, most of them avoided the front of Soda, and the spears in their hands pierced out at the same moment, building a jungle of spears around Soda. The spears were no more effective than the previous bolts, and apart from a few small wounds on the Golem's body, the only result was to further 'provoke' the monster.

Soda's eyes glowed bloodthirsty red, and at this moment, the old golem finally regained its former wild nature, and it was no longer the lord who wanted to live in peace, but a fearsome beast full of dangers. Its huge head swayed from side to side, its two tusks swept away its enemies on both sides with ease like sticks, and its long trunk seemed to suddenly transform into a giant python with spiritual 'nature', and each time it was thrown out, it was accompanied by the fall of an enemy, and in an instant, the spear warriors' defense line was once again broken.

Despite its rage, Sodar did not lose its mind, it knew where its greatest threat was coming from, the samurai's blocking did not change its direction, and the golem continued to move towards Kadar at a rapid pace. As long as they broke through the samurai who threw away their crossbow arrows and picked up their swords, there would be no more obstacles between it and the mage, and for a running demon, the distance of a hundred meters from the mage was just a matter of breathing.

As it had expected, the sword warriors were not even as good as their companions under its powerful onslaught, and these cowardly creatures were crushed after a symbolic 'sexual' resistance, and now, there was only that hateful mage in front of it. A faint yellow 'color' appeared on the surface of Soda's body, it was a natural ability of the Golems, this magic would triple its defenses, and at the same time increase its speed by half, at most, in a few seconds, it could reach the mage's side and crush the leader of the invaders to pieces.

However, the human mage didn't seem to realize his situation, and as he looked at the golem that was rushing towards him, a mocking smile appeared on Kadar's face, and before Sodar could understand why he was laughing, a sharp thorn had silently burrowed out of the ground beneath him.
