Chapter 183: Richard's heartbeat

"Earth Dragon Turns Over" -

The scene at this moment can only be described in this word.

The rolling hillsides are collapsing, the ground is cracking at an alarming rate, and the lakes of the mountain peaks are toppling and turning into waterfalls; Cracks ranging from hundreds of meters to several kilometers long and tens of meters wide crawled like cobwebs across the plain.

In the darkness of the rain, a huge black shadow of terrible scale rose its head—

Lightning and thunder roared, and in an instant, the miserable white light that tore through the night illuminated the hideous face of the fierce beast:

It was a huge mouth that wriggled like a rift, and the sharp teeth covered in filthy slime were like stalactites falling down, each as sharp and towering as a mountain.

Imagine a mountain of silence opening its jaws of blood - for the movement of its awakening was so loud that everyone could witness it, and both the wizards of the Black Tower and the people from the Rhine Kingdom were frozen in place by the shocking scene.

But that's just the tip of the iceberg of this monster that emerged from the ground:

Most of its body was clearly still hidden beneath the surface, but the tip of the end seemed to be comparable to the nearby mountains that stood in the wind and rain and were originally only in the background.

……

Wellett's body couldn't stop shaking.

She knew that she was very different from what she had been, that she had inherited a legacy from an ancient god, that she had seen a myriad of "trees" entwined with incredible abilities, and that she had even seen a kind of magic that destroyed the world; That's all the strength of my own future.

Still, she couldn't help but feel afraid.

Because, the current Villelet does not have enough time to grow, and in front of the monster that seems to move like a mountain, the witch's power is so weak that the other party will crush herself into mud with the slightest movement...... Any courage will be lost.

I'm afraid that only the legendary extraordinary, who are accustomed to the power of turning mountains and seas in a single move, can maintain a calm mind, raise their weapons, and face such a threat-

"Willy ......"

"Yes!"

In the wind and rain of fear and cold, Willett heard a familiar voice and instinctively responded; Then she realized what was going on, and she couldn't help but feel excited.

"Teacher! How could you ......"

"I've always been there."

A black-robed wizard wearing a silver-white mask quietly appeared behind her.

*

Richard glanced down at Villerett and was secretly relieved to make sure that the girl was not harmed. Of course, his tone didn't show the slightest meaning, but asked coldly.

"I just saw your fear and hesitation. This shouldn't be, my student, what are you afraid of as a inheritor of the Old Gods?

"I'm sorry, I ......"

The blonde witch bowed her head, both guilty and uneasy in response.

"The first time we met, there was no next time."

Richard wasn't prepared to talk too much. Wellett was smart and strong enough that she just needed a little beating and encouragement. What's more, it was the first time he had been a teacher, and if he overdid it somewhere and led the only student astray, the result would be annoying.

......

On the other hand, Willett's panicked heart due to the disappearance of her friends, the successive witnesses of the legendary wars and the unearthing of super-giant demons, can finally settle down at this moment.

Oh, yes. She couldn't help but think that I had no need to worry, because there were teachers who would protect me until I grew up, and she was like a young eagle sheltered under the wings of an eagle.

But this time is not destined to be long. She needs to grasp some of the power belonging to the ancient gods as soon as possible before she can be able to help the teacher.

......

After the appearance of "Raspuchin", Willett seemed to have found the backbone of the heart, and after being able to calm down and think, she released the demon king Solo by the way.

"Lord Zoro, do you know what kind of monster it is?"

Villette asked politely, though she had previously unceremoniously locked the other in the Tree of Faith.

Although Lord Solo used to be a demon king who was worshipped by all, he didn't seem to be averse to being silenced by himself—or he couldn't be disgusted, after all, the power of the contract was in the hands of witches.

"'The devil's small intestine'."

Solo glanced at Richard, didn't mean to hide it, and replied calmly.

“...... What is this quirky name? ”

"This area was once the core hinterland of the Demon Empire. And this giant worm, the ancestor of the Death Worm, has always lived beneath the surface of the territory of Zarwan. This was a well-known rumor of the time, which is why people who once lived in the shadow of the empire were given the name of this symbol of fear. “

"Actually, I think that's pretty accurate. Imagine what a death worm looks like, and imagine what it looks like when magnified a thousand times ......"

Seeing that Villerlet was deep in thought, Richard, who was listening to the side, also conceived in his mind-

Dead worms are generally yellowish or creamy white in color, and because they always nest in the soil, they only give people the impression of being dirty. On top of that, it's sticky and coiled.

If the Lost Medieval Empire is considered as a whole, then the giant worms that lurk in the soil of the Silent Ridges, which belong to the heart of the core, are like the intestines in the center of a giant's belly......

It does make people think of it.

……

"It's just that even I couldn't have imagined that two thousand years after the destruction of the empire, giants and wizards would be able to control it. Although the devil's small intestine can hardly be called a 'natural disaster', in terms of size, it can be called the best among the legions. ”

Richard's gaze, hidden under the mask, cast in that direction—

An old monster who has lived for hundreds of years, and was once the leader of the magic tower that rules this area, it is not an exaggeration that Howard Nuren can master this kind of hole card.

But now that the Dark Wizard has released it, it means that the battle should be at a fever pitch.

Now that the "oath" has arrived, and Villetel is in good condition, he originally planned to leave this place as soon as possible. But just now, Richard suddenly remembered a question:

Isn't the reason why he needs the oath to cooperate with the power of "True Name Capture", to recruit assistants who truly have legendary power for himself, and to provide a key bargaining chip for victory in the next internal struggle of the Black Tower?

And the two people in front of him, one is a former Steppenwolf member, a dark wizard in the plague realm; One is the head of the interior of the Papal Chamber, a member of the Supreme Ruling Group of the Holy See, and the youngest cardinal in history......

These two people are impeccable in terms of strength and status.

Aren't they the best candidates?

Thinking of this, Richard couldn't help but feel a "heartbeat" feeling.
