Chapter 153: Eight-legged Thousand Throats
After leaving the valley where the Shattered God Pool was located, Guo Xiaoshi immediately entered the Altar of Time and recovered from his injuries.
As soon as he entered the altar, he received a message from the altar, saying that he had enough conditions to upgrade, and asked if he was willing to upgrade.
"Don't upgrade yet, wait until you leave the Dusk Battlefield."
Guo Xiaoshi thought about it and gave an answer.
During the upgrade of the Altar of Time, it cannot be used, and now that he is in the twilight battlefield, he may encounter danger at any time, at this time, wouldn't choosing to upgrade be tantamount to cutting off his own retreat?
Coming out of the altar of time, Guo Xiaoshi suddenly felt confused about what to do next.
"Let's go and see the Ember Mountains!"
After thinking about it for a while, Guo Xiaoshi finally found a destination for himself and moved forward.
It is said that the ancient gods fell into it during the war of the ancient gods, causing the divine fire to burn, day and night, and it burned for thousands of years before finally stopping, so the mountain was covered with thick ashes, and it was named the Burning Ember Mountain.
In the simple map in Guo Xiaoshi's brain, the Burning Ember Mountain belongs to the place that has been marked, because there have been many people who have found the stumps of the ancient gods and the weapons and armor left over from the divine war, although they are all remnants of the ancients, but after all, it was once owned by the ancient gods, and even if it is broken, it is still a treasure, so the Burning Ember Mountain is a place that all those who enter the dusk battlefield cannot miss when they pass by.
Guo Xiaoshi knew that the closer he got to the central area, the easier it was to encounter aliens, so he had been extra careful along the way, in addition to using the concealment technique to converge the source energy fluctuations on his body, at the same time, every time he walked a distance, he would first find cover to hide and observe for a while, and then continue to move forward.
When he walked for about a long time, before he approached the Ember Mountain, Guo Xiaoshi, who was moving carefully, suddenly took shape, and the whole person suddenly dissipated like smoke, and quickly drifted into an inconspicuous rock nearby, as if it had become one with the rock, and there was no movement.
After a while, from the other direction, there was a very faint sound, as if something was swinging in the wind, and no one would notice it unless they listened carefully.
After discovering the sound, Guo Xiaoshi, who was hiding behind the rock, frowned slightly, and felt a strong fear and vigilance against the sound in his heart.
As the voice entered his ears, he only felt that his spirit was actually a little sluggish, and he almost let the concealment technique break the work, but fortunately, he saw the opportunity very quickly, and used his soul power to stabilize his mind so that he did not show his tracks.
After a while, the sound became more and more "loud", but this "big" is not a louder volume in the real sense, but a greater impact on the spirit, that feeling is that the sound has not become louder, but in the ears of people, it seems to be more noisy and unable to concentrate.
As the voice continued to become "louder", from behind a small mountain in the distance, a round figure moved out, moving slowly.
Guo Xiaoshi's eyelids narrowed slightly, and he already recognized what that figure was, because there was a record of it in the materials he had read about the dusk battlefield before, it was an alien race, an eight-legged thousand throat.
The eight-legged thousand throat is a monster similar to an octopus, the whole body is at least seven or eight meters high, is a huge ball of meat, under the ball of meat has eight legs, whiskers, this is the origin of the name "eight-legged".
There are only two organs on the ball of meat.
One is a huge mouth: at least a third the size of a ball of flesh, full of sharp teeth, even the tongue with thin teeth. The teeth in the mouth are intertwined on top of each other, and it feels disgusting and hideous to look at.
The other organ is the eye: it is a large eyeball that grows on the top of the ball of flesh, high and protruding, the whole is the size of a fist, can be rotated 360 degrees, covering all directions, and always radiating a green light.
According to the information, the eight-legged thousand-throated body is strong and powerful, and the way of fighting is mainly hand-to-hand combat. At the same time, the eight-legged Thousand Throat is born with the talent of "Battle Cry" and "Demon Language", and can cast various soul attack spells through sound waves in battle, which is unguardable. If there's any weakness they have, it's that they don't move quickly.
As the eight-legged thousand-throat got closer and closer, Guo Xiaoshi's expression became even more solemn, because he found that this eight-legged thousand-throat was actually a thousand-throated admiral.
Eight-legged and thousand-throated combat units are teamed up by 100 people, and one of the strongest of every 100 people will be the leader, called the Admiral. Therefore, among the eight-legged thousand throats who entered the dusk battlefield, there were only five thousand throat admirals, but they didn't expect Guo Xiaoshi to meet one as soon as they came, and they didn't know whether to say that they were too lucky or too lucky.
The Thousand Throat Admiral was moving very slowly, it looked like he was just going to pass diagonally in front of him, Guo Xiaoshi originally wanted to wait for it to pass before continuing to walk, but he didn't expect to know what was wrong, the Thousand Throat Overseer suddenly turned around in the middle of the march, and actually walked towards this side.
"Did you find out?"
Guo Xiaoshi was slightly shocked in his heart, and then felt that it was not, his concealment technique was impossible to detect from such a distance, so he secretly prepared while holding his troops still, ready to continue to take a look.
The Thousand-Throated Admiral came to a halt when it was about a hundred meters away from Guo Xiaoshi's hiding place. Its eyes turned to the direction directly opposite Guo Xiaoshi's hideout, and suddenly roared loudly.
"Buzz!"
The sound was like detonating a spiritual bomb, making Guo Xiaoshi feel dizzy for a while, if he hadn't been prepared to use soul power to protect his mind, I am afraid that he would be stunned immediately.
Forcibly depressed in his heart, Guo Xiaoshi carefully watched the movements of the thousand-throat overseer, only to see that in the direction of its roar, there was actually a sound in the middle of a thin cable, which was very dense.
After a while, Guo Xiaoshi finally saw that in a stone-toothed forest over there, more than twenty monsters the size of hyenas ran out, standing in front of the stone-toothed forest and looking at the Thousand Throat Admiral.
The monsters looked like mice, but they had no hair on their bodies, and their eyes glowed red, greedy and vicious.
On the monster's body, there are only gray muscles, and the lower limbs are thick and short, strong and powerful, slightly bent, and obviously cannot stand upright. The upper limbs are thicker and longer, with a pair of huge claws, and the claws glow with metallic light, which looks extremely sharp.
"Devilish?"
Guo Xiaoshi only glanced at those monsters, and immediately recognized them according to the map.
It was the Demon Pole, one of the four alien races that could enter the battlefield of twilight.
"Do you want to fight?"
Guo Xiaoshi's mind was racing, and he suddenly understood a little.
It seemed that the Admiral of the Thousand Throats had already discovered these demons in advance, which was why he came over and roared, and it had nothing to do with him.
Compared to the eight-legged thousand throats, although the body of the demon pole is a little "weaker", it has a very obvious advantage in speed, and they like to fight in groups, so it is really difficult to say who wins and who loses.
But no matter what, as long as it's not him who is in trouble, Guo Xiaoshi doesn't mind watching an interracial war for free.
