Chapter 122 There are two words written all over this book - "cannibalism"!
The clouds in the sky had not yet dispersed, but there was not a trace of the moon or stars in the vast sky. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
Although it was still night, the part of the world in which Belial City was located still seemed a little too dark. There are still faint lights from oil lamps in the city, but outside the city without a trace of light, you can't see your fingers at all.
Dozens of soldiers were hurrying through the forest outside the city, following the muffled roar to find the unknown creature that made the sound.
Their steps seemed to be hurried, their heavy steps on the soft earth, sinking and pulling out of the dirt very quickly, and the boots made a slight "creaking" sound between the rapid contact with the mud.
Rather than maintaining a strict formation, they opted for dozens of people to be spread out and face in all directions, each alerting themselves to the dynamics of the direction in front of themβa formation commonly used by expedition squads.
Because in such a harsh and cramped environment, the formation they used to march on a daily basis did not work very well, so instead of making their own movements constrained, it was better to adopt a flexible and more efficient method.
Torches were held at various points in the procession, and each soldier held a long knife in his hand to prevent a sudden attack.
However, although they were cautious, they were not slow to move forward - they knew that this location in the forest outside the city itself did not exist in any powerful beasts, and they only needed to watch out for the unknown creatures that let out a low roar.
So as the roar got closer and closer, the soldiers gradually became vigilant, and the hands holding the long knives were also subconsciously tightened.
It wasn't clear what the creature was like with its low roar, but the soldiers' hearts ...... There was a faint feeling of unease.
None of them could say why they felt this way, but just listening to such a roar, they subconsciously felt a little creepy...... It was as if the cold hairs all over his body stood on end.
The sound grew louder and louder, and the roar gradually evolved into a roar that bordered on an angry roar, and the air around it seemed to tremble faintly under such a roar!
And in the forest, which was so quiet that only the sound of this roar remained, suddenly there was a clear sound of trees breaking!
The soldiers raised their heads at the sound of the noise, trying to see what was going on by the faint light of the fire, but they saw the direction from which the sound was coming from......
Countless towering trees are shaking violently, and after shaking, they break and fall down in an instant!
Trees several meters or even more than ten meters high are broken off by their roots, and you can clearly see the big trees falling down, splashing the sky with wood chips and dirt! Where the tree was originally located, there was only bare ground left, not even a single stump!
And the image of the fallen trees falling into the eyes of the soldiers is not just a momentary scene...... As the roar increased, the group of fellows seemed to be moving forward, and along with their progress, trees were falling one after another!
The whole earth seemed to tremble visibly at this moment!
And after those broken trees...... The color black and red can be faintly seen.
The soldiers' bodies were also trembling, and many of them turned extremely pale.
It's still unclear what these roaring guys are...... But these guys almost fell in response to the trees along the way, and it was clear that they were some kind of extremely powerful creatures...... Or monsters.
And such a group of monsters are heading towards themselves and others at this moment...... Towards the city of Belial!
"Flameout! Hide them and don't let them find out! The man at the head of the team made the most appropriate decision on the spot.
Because whether these monsters are powerful or not, can they handle it...... Fighting monsters head-on shouldn't be something they should do.
Their main task this time was to find out the source of the sound and transmit the information back to the city -- such a task should be to ensure the accuracy of the information and their own thoroughness.
The torches were extinguished, and the surroundings returned to darkness where they could not see their fingers.
The soldiers hid in the darkness, which was originally a forest, with dense vegetation, and some were hiding places.
The movement of the broken trees was getting louder and louder, and the broken trees were getting closer and closer to them, and even sawdust and mud were splashed on the soldiers' faces.
But no one spoke, and everyone held their breath and quietly observed the situation in front of them.
But it's them...... I couldn't help but gasp when I saw the guys who knocked down the trees.
"Oh my goodness...... What is all this!? β
Although it was impossible to see the exact situation in the darkness, the soldiers could faintly see it...... One by one, huge figures smashed through the trees in the forest and invaded their sight with extreme brutality!
The huge figures resemble humans, but they are all over four meters tall...... Height alone is enough to despise most of the known races or monsters on the continent.
And...... As they walked, they almost lightly bumped into the trees on the road, and the trees seemed to be subjected to a tremendous force, and they broke apart completely in an instant!
The power of these guys...... It seems unbelievably big, too!
What's even more heart-wrenching is ......
These guys, these guys who are four meters tall and have surprisingly great strength......
Not one or two, not a dozen or twenty......
But you can't see the edge at all, and the soldiers' line of sight is densely covered with such monsters!
Although the size of the monsters is extremely large, the number of monsters that the soldiers can see is extremely limited.
But you can also guess by the density of monsters...... The number of monsters has reached a point where the scalp is numbing!
The soldiers hiding behind the vegetation didn't even dare to come out - the number and strength of these guys in front of them were far beyond their imagination, they were only a squad of fifty people, and they simply didn't have the capital to contend with these monsters head-on!
Fortunately, the monsters didn't seem to have a very sensitive sense, and they passed by where the soldiers were hiding, and even smashed a tree next to them to pieces, without noticing them.
The soldiers prayed in their hearts that these monsters would leave quickly.
As the monsters passed, the air was filled with an unpleasant smell of blood.
The smell was a little uncomfortable for the soldiers.
The smell of blood...... It always seems to represent a bad omen.
The soldier at the head was thinking like this, and when he came back to his senses, he found that all that was left in his eyes was black and red.
Although it was dark now, it was supposed that everything should be black, but the soldier felt for no reason that the color that was blocking his vision at the moment was black and red.
Then he raised his head and saw that all the way was black and red, as if his vision was firmly bound by this color.
It wasn't until he leaned up that his neck hurt a little that his gaze finally broke free.
And what broke this black-red shroud was a pair of eyes that radiated blood-colored light.
A pair of eyes the size of a millstone, far apart, still covered his entire vision.
Those eyes were staring straight at him.
At this moment, he clearly felt that the surrounding environment was quiet, and the roar and the sound of the trees breaking were gone.
It wasn't until a few seconds later that a roar that almost shattered his eardrums came out of the mouth of the guy in front of him!
It grows its mouth, and a thick smell of blood hits its face!
At the same time, there was also the terrifying roar:
"Roar!!!!!!!! Roar!!!!!!!!! Roar!!!!!!!! β
The roar almost tossed the soldier to the ground, and the nearby trees trembled wildly under the roar, and the tall and sturdy trees were like fragile glass, as if they could easily be smashed apart by such a roar!
Countless pairs of blood-colored eyes looked at each other at the same time, and at the same time looked at the dozens of soldiers hiding behind the vegetation.
After feeling the gaze of these monsters, the faces of the soldiers turned extremely pale at this moment.
The soldier at the head knew that he had been discovered, so he gritted his teeth and jumped out, and his body was actually lit with bright anger!
"You go! I was attracted to their ......"
But before he could finish speaking, the monster in front of him roared and pounced on him, instantly grabbing a handful of them on the huge palm.
Then...... Open your mouth and swallow it whole into your mouth!
The monster chewed hard, and the soldier let out a horrible scream in its mouth!
Mournful...... And screams of pain!
With the light of a moment from the soldier's previous flames, the rest of the soldiers could see the monster for a moment.
It was a huge humanoid monster with a black-red head and horns and a fanged mouth!
All this happened too suddenly, and the soldiers led by him took the initiative to take on the task of covering everyone's retreat, but before they could even finish the final explanation, they were instantly swallowed by the monster and took a bite to ...... Chew and eat as if you were eating.
So when they withdrew from their stunned state, an indescribable fear instantly enveloped their hearts.
These...... These guys...... To eat people!
And he can be wrapped in a fourth-level fighting spirit and swallow a person!
A feeling of fear spread from everyone's hearts, and these usually well-trained soldiers could no longer keep their cool when they saw this scene, and their psychological defenses collapsed almost instantly!
"Escape!!!!! Run!!!!! These monsters are going to eat people!!!!! β
The soldiers scattered and fled, and the fighting energy in their bodies was activated, and they couldn't wait to get up and escape from this group of monsters as quickly as possible!
But most of the soldiers had only run a few steps before they were caught by giant monsters one by one, and without exception, they were sent into their mouths!
There are even a few monsters, after catching the soldiers, not rushing to swallow them, but ...... Tear the soldier in two!
The terrible and terrifying screams were heard endlessly, and an astonishing smell of blood began to spread throughout the space!
There were also a handful of soldiers who excelled in speed that escaped the first wave of these monsters.
It's just that before they could really distance themselves from these monsters, a vague black-red afterimage suddenly flashed in front of their eyes.
In the next moment, they all felt a chill in their chests.
When he lowered his head, he was in disbelief to find that a metallic claw had completely penetrated his chest at some point.
Looking back with a shocked gaze, he found himself behind him......
Standing a ...... about the same height as himself A humanoid monster curled up.
The monster saw the soldier turn his head and jerk out his other claw, which smashed into the soldier's head!
The soldier's head exploded like a watermelon with a bang!
Brains splattered onto the monster's face and claws.
The monster stuck out its tongue...... The monster's tongue was so strange that it could cover almost its entire face, slowly, with great seriousness...... Lick the brains off your face.
It reached its claws to its mouth again, finger by finger, sucking hard at the brains on its fingers.
The monster is extremely enjoyable and looks ......
It's as if you're eating a delicious meal that is unique in the world. (To be continued.) )
