Chapter 40: The Dinner

In the depths of the outpost, the location of what should have been a warehouse for storing supplies turned into a huge pit at some point. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The huge pit not only swallowed up the original warehouse, but also shattered the entire outpost camp.

Dressed in a robe, Eschic walked down the rope with ease.

Although his body is no longer young, such a simple thing is still difficult for Eshik, let alone in a very safe place.

"How did you do that?"

"What was the darkness before?"

"And the pit ...... here"

Thinking of Dad's command, Eshick's heart was full of doubts.

However, it was precisely because of the doubts that Esic was more motivated to complete the task arranged by Dad.

In addition to satisfying curiosity, it is naturally a great reward.

The thought that he would soon be able to have the strong, energetic body of his youth again made Eishik move faster and faster.

When Eich's feet hit the ground, the oil lamp that had been prepared was lit.

In the faint light, the strangely shaped stones in the underground cavern and the damp ground imprinted into Eishic's ground one by one.

At the same time, a faint foul smell kept burrowing into Eishic's nose.

Raise your hand and cover your mouth and nose.

Eshick followed Dad's previous prompts and walked in the direction of the source of the stench.

The stench quickly changes from light to rich.

Even if he covered his mouth and nose, Eshick retched without listening.

The smell is so stinky.

Eich could have sworn that even the rotting corpses in the cellar did not smell like this, but soon, the stench began to disappear rapidly.

When Eich pursued the smell and walked about 30 meters, the stench disappeared completely.

In front of his eyes, a magic array with intricate arrangements that ordinary people would feel dizzy as long as they looked at it appeared there.

The most eye-catching thing is naturally the core position of the magic array.

A pitch-black jar was placed there.

In the light of the oil lamp, the pitch black shimmered with the reflection of metal.

"Found it!"

"This is it!"

Esic resisted his excitement, took out a scroll from his arms, and carefully tore it open, and the light escaping from it completely enveloped his body, and then he walked towards the magic array.

This was the means of protection that Dade gave him.

Only with this layer of protection can you avoid being injured by this magic array.

Protected Eich approached the pitch-black jar step by step.

Eishic's eyes were fixed on his target.

Therefore, he didn't notice that the magic array had undergone extremely subtle changes.

In fact, the change began when Eich tore open the scroll.

It's just that when Eshick walked into the magic circle, this change began to accelerate.

When Eich walked up to the pitch-black jar and picked it up, the change was complete.

The darkness that was even deeper in front of him rose from the darkness attached to the surface of the jar like a mist of smoke, and instantly turned into a shadow monster with claws, a head, and a torso, twice the size of ordinary people.

The monster cracked its mouth and let out bursts of laughter.

Harsh and deadly.

The moment Eich heard the laughter, his eyeballs shattered, his ears bled out, and his whole body was lifeless.

To his death, Escic didn't understand why the protection Dad had given him didn't work.

That's naturally because, at all, there's no protection inside the scroll, but-

Call!

With Eshick's death, the light escaping from the scroll quickly melted into the corpse.

Then, Eishik's corpse swelled as if it were blowing up a balloon.

From the appearance of an ordinary person, it became about three meters tall before stopping.

Then, the 'giant' Eich climbed up.

With shattered eyes, or rather, orbital positions, staring at the shadowy monster.

Although the 'giant' Eshik was one size smaller than the shadow monster at this moment, the aura that burst out from his body was no less impressive.

The savage, tyrannical aura swept through the crypt like a typhoon.

Slightly smaller stones are blown up.

Strange rocks that are not strong enough are blown apart.

But the shadow monster like smoke and mist was not blown at all, and in the weird, gloomy and cold aura, it was like a solid piece of thousand-year-old ice.

Again, the laughter appeared.

It was even more piercing and deadly than the previous one.

The ripples of the Dao, like ripples in the water of a lake, hit the 'giant' Eich.

Poof, poof!

The flesh and blood on the 'giant' Eich's body immediately burst open, and the blood flowed like a pour, and the bones were visible deeply.

However, in the face of such an injury, the 'giant' Eich did not care, and even ...... Laugh out loud.

"Hahaha!"

"I knew you'd leave something in these places."

"And they'll be my clues to you."

The laughter was rough and powerful, not at all Eishic's voice, but Dadd.

Known as the 'Giant', Dad borrowed Eshick's body to laugh to match.

The shadow monsters are deaf.

It just increased the attack of the sound waves.

"It's a useless shell, but I'm not willing to be destroyed like this by you—the shadow you left behind must be delicious, right?"

"I can't wait to get a bite!"

With a laugh in the form of Eshik, Dad pounced on the shadow monster.

Shadow monsters don't know how to dodge at all.

In this way, Dud, who borrowed Eich's body, was 'bitten' on the torso, as if he was sucking liquid food, and Dad kept sucking and swallowing.

The shadow monster's body shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye.

At the same time, an increasingly cold force began to appear within the shadow monster's body.

"Still want to fight back?"

"Come on! Come on! ”

"I don't mind tasting the more powerful 'food'"

Dud, who didn't let go of his mouth, said vaguely.

"Food?"

"You never understand who is the food!"

An abrupt voice rang out from among the shadow monsters.

Then, the shadow monster, which was already in the shape of smoke, exploded like this, turning into a slightly thin cloud of smoke, enveloping Dad, who borrowed Eich's body.

"Hahaha!"

"This kind of 'dinner' is also good!"

"Let's see who can eat whom!"

Dade continued to laugh.

The smoke from the shadow monster continued to circulate until a sound appeared.

"Dinner?"

"Sounds good, how about adding me one?"

Sound, sword arrived.

A 20-meter-long lightsaber tore through the darkness and shone through the entire crypt, slashing past two monsters that did not distinguish each other with an indomitable momentum.
