Chapter 51: Seedlings to Grow
Kohler continuously activated the teleportation ability, using the monster's body as a springboard to move quickly, and when the third teleportation was over, the front was already suddenly clear, and only a few monsters were scattered in the ravine-crisscrossed wasteland.
"It's finally out, as long as I'm alone, I can easily get out of here......"
After escaping, Kohler's heart couldn't help but have the idea of leaving, but immediately the terrifying figure of the Spartan filled his mind.
"If I run away like this, I'm afraid I'll be beaten to pulp by that Spartan's punch......"
Kohler forcibly suppressed the distractions in his heart, and raised his eyes to quickly find the way forward, but at this moment, on a slightly raised dirt slope behind him, the figure of a small demon suddenly appeared.
Kohler's heart was alarmed, and he didn't have time to activate the teleportation ability, and his body subconsciously rushed forward, but when his body was still in mid-air, there was a hot stinging sensation in his back.
"Hmph......" Kohler snorted in pain, after the severe pain, a feeling of weakness came like a tide, the claws of the little devil were infected with the evil qi of the underworld, as long as a little flesh and blood was rubbed, it would quickly enter the human body through the blood, the symptoms were like cold signs, making people's limbs weak, and the weak would even die slowly in the pain of weakness.
Khloe staggered and ran, and he could clearly hear the imp's piercing laugh sticking to his back like maggots on his tarsal bones.
Even if you use magic tools to teleport, you need to consume a certain amount of physical and mental power, and if you forcibly teleport in a state of confusion, it will have unpredictable consequences, and when you tear open the crack in the passage, you will be torn to pieces by the power of space, or you will be teleported to a place where you can't stand on it, and your body will be buried deep underground, and finally you will be oppressed to death by the earth.
In the desolate Jedi, the smell of Kohler's unique human flesh and blood permeated the surroundings clearly, and the smell of scattered monsters had begun to converge towards him.
At this moment, there was a faint vibration from the ground under his feet, as if a behemoth was walking towards him.
With Kohler's current weakened state, if he encounters a powerful monster again, there is no possibility of surviving at all.
"Am I going to die here......"
Khloe couldn't help but look up in the direction of the giant monster, he wanted to see what kind of monster he would be buried in.
But a surprising, familiar voice suddenly came from the body of the giant monster.
"Kohler, why are you here alone!"
Kohler stood stunned, as if he couldn't believe that the savage Spartan could have formed a relationship with such a terrifying monster.
The phantom of a huge wild boar suddenly appeared in the air, covered in scales and armor, so lifelike that it didn't look like a phantom at all.
The apparition of the Boar of Ermantos appeared and immediately charged, slamming a huge shield-like ramming horn into Kohler's back.
Bang!
The force of the concussion blew the wasteland to pieces, and Kohler's fragile body flew out like a blade fluttering in the wind and rain, and was grabbed by the huge bear paw of the blood bear in midair.
Kratos looked at Kohler, who had not yet recovered from the panic, and had a general understanding of the reason, so he stopped dragging and ordered the Blood Bear to lead them towards the location of the canyon in front of them.
When Kratos arrived, two more guards had died, and most of the remaining guards were injured, leaving only Luca and a few others still struggling to support, as long as Kratos came a little later, I am afraid that the third prince would be torn to pieces and become the belly of these underworld monsters.
In the frightened eyes of everyone, the blood bear was like the king of destruction, and the slap of the palm was immediately a landslide, a large number of low-level monsters were killed in one blow, and the red soul floated out of the corpse, and was finally absorbed by the wild boar phantom that roared wantonly in mid-air.
"You don't have to be nervous, this is the beast soul I summoned, with 100 horsepower power, these low-level monsters are no opponent at all. ”
The Blood Bear's huge paw grabbed the third prince and all the guards on his broad shoulders.
After seeing Kratos, everyone temporarily relaxed their guard in their hearts, although they could not fully believe that such a terrifying giant monster would be their companion, but standing behind the strong body of the Spartan, they couldn't help but feel a sense of conviction.
"The injured brother immediately took emergency treatment, and he still had the strength to draw a bow and shoot arrows with me. ”
As a true veteran of a hundred battles, Lukka did not dare to completely relax on the battlefield, and after a short rest, he re-picked up his bow and arrows, and dutifully shot non-lethal arrows at the monsters surrounding the blood bear.
Kratos glanced at Lukka and the other guards, who were exhausted but still barely holding their bows and arrows, and his heart moved, and the blood-red spell on his body immediately flashed with a shocking light, and a large number of blood souls were sucked out of the monster's corpse.
Kratos did not directly convert the red soul into his own power after inhaling it into his body, but used the method of mobilizing the power of hunger to squeeze it out of his body again.
Kratos suddenly reached out and grabbed Luca, who froze, but did not make any resistance movements, just looked at Kratos without blinking, but it didn't take long for his body to immediately tremble significantly, and a complex expression of surprise and shock appeared on his face.
Kratos carefully observed Luca's reaction, and after being infused with the red soul, the wounds on the surface of Luka's body healed quickly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the originally sluggish eyes gradually bloomed with a radiant glow.
Not only was his injuries healed, but his physical strength was also restored, but Kratos did not stop the infusion of red souls, but gradually increased his output.
Kratos vaguely guesses that the Red Soul is the essence of the body and soul of every living being, and even a skeleton soldier who has been resurrected after death can draw a small amount of Red Soul from its faint soul fire.
These red-soul mortals are invisible to the naked eye, and are only seen by Kratos in their embodied form when they are attracted by Kratos' mysterious spells.
3 hp, 4 hp, 5 hp...... Luka's power was only maxed out when it was boosted to 10 horsepower.
Although pulling seedlings can quickly improve strength, it is limited by the quality of the body, and there is a limit that is difficult to break through.
Kratos felt that if he continued to infuse him with red souls, he was afraid that Luka's not tough body would be directly burst.
After doing all this, Kratos' eyes narrowed slightly, and a faint wisp of black air oozed down his arm.
Lukka's body shook, and the expression of infinite joy that had been immersed in gaining power was immediately replaced by a twisted pain.
But Lukka remained motionless, gritting his teeth and holding back the infinite hunger in his body, even as his intestines and stomach groaned.
"There is no unearned benefit in the world, equivalent exchange, how much power you want to get, how much price you have to pay, can you bear this level of pain for the sake of power?"
Lukka almost crushed his gums, his eyes were red, and he barely squeezed out a voice from between his teeth: "Thank you for the reward, Lukka will swear by his soul and pray only to you for the rest of his life, and can only hear your voice in his ears." ”
Kratos' expression remained unchanged, and when he felt that Lukka had reached the limit of what he could bear, he immediately let out his hunger.
Having experienced betrayal and tragedy, he doesn't need the so-called loyalty at all, what he needs is a naked life, and even his soul must be in his own hands.
Kratos did the same, infusing each guard with red souls to repair injuries and increase strength, and even the third prince, Arthur Evans, was forcibly increased to 2 horsepower, which is equivalent to the strength of an elite soldier.
As a result, the strength of the remaining 20 guards has increased dramatically, and the worst one has 5 horsepower, and together they can even defeat the two-headed dog of the underworld that spits flames.
"It can directly increase its strength, which is a means that only the gods have...... What kind of monster is this Spartan!"
Kohler was shocked to look at the guards with hideous faces and pain, but their strength increased rapidly, their hands and feet were cold, their bodies trembled, and they roamed the Peloponnese in the name of his escapee, and even the royal palace had been infiltrated, but he had never heard of a mortal who could use the means of the gods.
Three days later, at the end of the plain of Mesodas, the smoky sight of the Asiatic Gorge had risen above the horizon.
The three knights, dressed in bronze armor and their faces covered under beast-shaped masks, immediately stopped their horses, their eyes coldly staring at the human Jedi who were about to fight.
The 10,000 soldiers were silent, there was no confusion at all between the march and the stop, but in the time of three breaths, they were immediately arranged into a neat military formation, all with solemn eyes and strong bodies, all of them were elite soldiers who would not die in a hundred battles.
"Aristophanes, we marched all the way, and it only took three days to get here from the city of Telian, and now we will rush in and search for the traces of the third prince?"
It was one of the three armored officers who spoke, and in the army of Mycenae, only a high-ranking officer with the strength of a hundred men was qualified to wear bronze armor.
The hundred-person enemy officer in the middle snorted coldly and said unceremoniously: "Hmph, although the priest of the temple has already divined, there will still be no thousand-person enemy-level monster in the doom crack this time, but with the straw bag of the third prince, I am afraid that he will not know that he was buried in the belly of that monster for a long time." ”
"Aristophanes is right, marching and fighting is the most taboo thing to be quick success, we have marched all the way to this point, even the undead veterans will feel exhausted, we should now camp on the spot, and the next day we will slowly advance according to the map, exterminate all the monsters in the valley of Asia, and complete the glorious task given to us by His Majesty. ”
