Chapter 392: Plague Eggs
The demon hunter lay down in his hiding place and looked at the giant in front of him, and casually uprooted a large tree more than ten meters high, breaking it off from the middle to leave a thicker side.
When Xu Yichen saw the other party use his uncoordinated fingers to remove the branches on the trunk one by one, he was sure that this thing was intellectual.
Not only intellectual, but also seems to be very emotional.
The headless giant's anger came from nowhere, and he stabbed the trunk of the tree in his hand at the base of the pyramid, as if he wanted to destroy the building completely.
The demon hunter watched with great interest as the monster in front of him exerted too much force, accidentally breaking the trunk of the tree in his hand, and screaming in place in a frenzy.
It seems that every time I see Nurgle's family, they are quite happy?
The Headless Giant didn't want to give up on his business, though it didn't understand the point of doing it in its chaotic will.
But the anger that comes from within makes it feel that if it doesn't completely destroy the building that has imprisoned it for so long, the fire of anger will continue to burn its already small mind.
In its vague memory, a three-meter-tall ulcer filled with pus, a large egg-like mass of swollen sores, and a man in a black robe appeared repeatedly.
In the end, it all ends with a picture of a headless corpse getting farther and farther away from him, and every time this image appears, it makes the headless giant feel extremely angry.
So it destroyed the pyramid in front of it even harder, prying it with the trunk, smashing it with its hands, and kicking it with its feet.
With the brutal ravages of the Headless Giants, the building, which had been silent in the forest for an unknown amount of time, and which was later chosen by the Nurgle cultists as a place to house the Chaos Eggs, was finally torn down.
When the headless giant opened its mouth again and let out a whistling sound, the keen eyes of the demon hunter directly saw the organs in the giant's body along the other party's huge mouth.
A huge ovoid organ occupies almost ninety percent of the volume of the opponent's abdominal cavity, with a green epidermis and thick vegetative tubes, as if it is pregnant with something.
A sudden mission suddenly appears on the retina of the Demon Hunter, and the red font reflects the urgency of the mission.
"The Far South in the Storm - The Final Test from Nurgle." : You've found the Freak Monster that has always been one with the Plague Egg, and the cage that held it in was broken by the enemies you brought in, and now it's free.
Nahru, who was originally one of the top leaders of the Immortal Church, was beheaded in this ancient building due to the frustration of his plan to summon the Garden of Nurgle in the Great Port of Antony, and his head is now placed in the Blight Hall of the Immortal Church, where it is constantly scorched by corrosive flames, and his screams can be transmitted all the way to the path of uncleanness.
His headless corpse, after being burned, stubbornly burrowed into the plague egg, and was eventually corrupted into Nurgle's new toy, and in its body, a new plague egg had matured.
Once it leaves the Chaos Contamination Zone, the Plague Egg will erupt with a plague large enough to reduce the entire Far South Continent to death, and the only way to keep it in the land that gave birth to it is to ensure that the Plague Egg remains dormant.
It is your duty as a demon hunter to stop the Body of Nahru from leaving this ruin.
Difficulty: Dangerous ~ Epic
Reward: [Low Regeneration] Talent Promoted to [Regeneration]
"Do you accept it?"
Although the system asked, on Xu Yichen's retina, the option representing no was gray and could not be selected.
Obviously, the system has a very user-friendly task release system, following the outline of who causes trouble and who solves it, and issues a mandatory task.
I don't know if it's an illusion, compared with the previous tasks, Xu Yichen feels that the system has become more and more 'individual'.
Xu Yichen had no other choice and accepted the task, and the red prompt disappeared in front of him.
The Demon Hunter quietly approached the headless giant, known as Nahru's Body, from behind under the cover of the stone walls on the outer edge of the ruins.
If the background information provided by the system is true, then the biggest reason why this unlucky believer named Nahru was cut off was because of Xu Yichen himself.
If he hadn't sabotaged Nurgle's plans, I'm afraid it would have made the grave grass on Antony Harbour three feet high.
Compared to the demon hunter who looked directly at the Chaos Demon for the first time at that time and would be judged by the DEBUFF of 'Chaos Shock', Xu Yichen at this time can be said to have been reborn.
It wasn't until he approached the distance of nearly fifty meters from Nahru's body that Xu Yichen received the first system prompt.
"You stepped into the confines of the 'Plague Realm', and based on your transcendent physique, you are immune to the negative effects of the realm."
Nahru's body, not far from the Demon Hunter, was clearly not a guy with outstanding perception attributes.
Having just accomplished an accomplishment that satisfied him, the Headless Giant sat down on the ruins of the pyramid, as if considering whether he should go out for a walk or sleep where he was.
Both of these options were tempting for it, and Nahru's body was completely unaware of the approaching demon hunters behind him.
For Xu Yichen, how to kill a big guy who is three stories tall and looks like he has rough skin and thick flesh is a very serious problem.
At this time, he missed his [Nar's Flame-shaped Great Sword] immensely, the sword was long enough, the destructive power was huge enough, and most importantly, it was strong enough.
That weapon went through several battles with the Demon Hunter, and was finally interrupted by the abusive champion, and until now Xu Yichen has not obtained a weapon of the same level again.
With the mortal iron made by the dwarves in his hands now, he didn't know if he could deal effective damage to the enemy.
After all, it looked like the fat layer alone was longer than their own weapon, not to mention that the Demon Hunter had to worry about whether his weapon could pierce the other's skin.
Maybe you need another internal breakout?
The Demon Hunter looked at the man's massive mouth across his abdomen and dismissed the thought.
If the 'Famine Xenomorph' still has a relatively normal set of organs that can be destroyed by itself, eventually leading to death, then the body of Nahru in front of him is probably nothing else in his body except for that plague egg.
The plague egg is its stomach, its heart, and its source of life, and even if it is lucky enough to crawl into the other party's body, it cannot cause harm by destroying its organs.
What's more, the consequences of breaking the Chaos Egg are already clear in the mission description, that thing is a biological dirty bomb, a 'poor man's nuclear weapon' in the true sense of the word.
