Chapter 232: Battle of the Giants (1)
And then the horror did not end. The highly corrosive droplet of blood "ate" a person alive and continued to erode downward. Soon, the entire mass of blood dripped onto the deck of the bronze rampart, slowly penetrating the floor paved with three layers of thick iron armor and one layer of copper armor, and finally left the barrier and disappeared into the endless abyss.
Only the people on the ramparts are left with a breathtaking black hole.
Under the laughter of the Huangquan giant, the huge palm shadow still hovered above the barrier, only this time, more and more blood droplets dripped down, landing on the deck of the barrier, the Karakuri room, and the warehouse. There is nothing in this world that can resist the erosion of the blood of this monster from the Yellow Spring, whether it is a thick sealed wall or an iron wall, as long as it is stained with blood droplets, it will quickly corrode, layer by layer downward corruption.
The blood on the palm of his hand dripped more and more, dripped faster and faster, and soon spread into a red rainy season, sweeping across the entire barrier. There was no one on the barrier to run, and people screamed, cried, hugged each other in the face of known death, and finally slowly watched their companions die one by one in extreme despair and struggle, and then it was their turn.
Lu Lie stood on the tree wall and witnessed the entire process of the collapse of the bronze barrier.
He understood the meaning of the laughter of the Yellow Springs giant, which filled the heavens and the earth.
This greatest masterpiece in the history of mankind, the master of the mechanical world, in front of the real monster, in front of the monster brewed in this heaven and earth, is just a toy, a toy to pass the time and have fun.
As long as the monster has a good heart, it can knock this little ship to the bottom at any time. But it didn't. Under the rain of arrows on the bronze barrier, it deliberately let its palm stay in mid-air, just to create the illusion that "the giant palm has been broken" and give hope to the people above the barrier.
Then, let the blood on the palm of your hand slowly drip down, little by little, crush the hope of these ant-like creatures.
It's like watching the panicked ants crawl out of the nest with great interest, and then when they gather on the high ground and take a breath, he douses them with boiling water again.
The most ridiculous thing is that from the beginning to the end, the people on the ramparts don't know what kind of monster they are fighting. From the perspective of them looking up at the sky, they thought until they died that a strange hand had killed them from nowhere. I'm afraid that the deceased who were melted alive by the rain of blood thought before they died, "I have already killed that giant palm, but unfortunately I was not very lucky, and I was killed by the blood dripping from the monster's corpse"......
After watching the entire bronze barrier melt into the blood and water, and finally lose its support and fall completely into the abyss, the Huangquan giant, who was shoulder to shoulder with the sun, retracted his giant palm with satisfaction and disappeared into the sky.
Seeing that the last descendants of the country on the tree escaped were all wiped out in the abyss, the cannibals and Lu Lie, who were still surviving at this moment, were really full of emotion in their hearts. I still remember that when they were just rescued from the country of trees, they were completely impressed by this human city built on a giant tree, and they never thought that there would be such a magical country on top of this giant tree. And now, it's all over. It is really "watching him raise the Zhu Tower, watching him feast guests, and seeing his building collapse".
The dark clouds in the sky gradually dispersed, revealing a white sky again. It's just that the sky looks lifeless at the moment, like a dead fish with its belly turned up.
The cannibal and Lu Lie were filled with emotion in their hearts, and were about to continue to move forward along the path under their feet that they didn't know what to open up for their predecessors, when the skeleton shadow in the sky slowly turned its head and squeaked its jaw, as if it was still unfinished.
Those empty eyes actually looked in the direction of the cannibal and Lu Lie who were hiding on the other side of the tree wall.
"Oh no! that monster seems to be able to sense our presence!" the cannibal only felt an instinctive aura of heaven and earth pressing down on him. How alert his heart was, with the only remaining hand, he grabbed Lu Lie, who was still moving forward unconsciously, and lay down among the weeds on the side of the path with the two of them, trying his best to lay his body flat on the ground, and he didn't even dare to breathe.
From Lu Lie's angle, he couldn't see what was happening on the other side of the giant tree at all. All he knew was that the cannibal stagger around him suddenly went crazy and forced himself down to prevent him from walking anymore. Lu Lie was inexplicable in his heart, but from the experience of the previous few times, the cannibal owl rarely came out of nowhere, and most of them were aware of the danger that was difficult for ordinary people to reach before they made any changes. Presumably, this time it was also a change in the surrounding environment that I didn't see. Thinking like this, Lu Lie obeyed the bad old man's wishes and lay on the ground.
The two of them were quietly prostrate on the ground, so quiet that even the heartbeats of both sides could be heard clearly at this moment. I waited in place for a few more moments, and nothing was happening around me. Lu Lie thought to himself: This time it seems that this bad old man is really thinking too much. He was about to climb up from the ground and rebuke the cannibal. Suddenly, a gust of cold wind blew over the cannibal and Lu Lie, and swept straight past the bodies of the cannibal and Lu Lie, and at the same time, the two of them were shocked into a cold sweat-
At this moment, it was on top of the heads of the cannibal owl and Lu Lie, rubbing back and forth along the surface of the tree wall, as if it was looking for something!
Lu Lie seemed to have taken a cold shower, and cold sweat gushed out all over his body, and his body was soaked in an instant-according to the huge volume of that strange hand and the silent momentum of flying, if the cannibal and Lu Lie were still walking forward as ignorant and unconscious as before, the giant palm would come from behind, and I am afraid that they would crush their two villains into meat sauce before the blink of an eye!
Fortunately, the cannibal owl was in danger again, and fortunately, the area where the two of them were lying horizontally at the moment was a depression, and the terrain was slightly concave. The cross-section of the giant palm was too large, and it swept over from above several times, but it could not be touched. Otherwise, even if the two of them lay down in advance, they would not be able to escape the fate of being crushed into blood.
The two giant palms were still unfinished, constantly rubbing back and forth on the tree wall within a radius of a hundred miles, coming and going above the heads of the cannibal owl and Lu Lie. Even though the cannibal owl and Lu Lie have traveled north and south for many years, and have experienced countless bizarre events in the journey of the giant tree below, where have they ever seen this formation? I'm afraid that this giant palm has ears on it, and if I make a little movement, I'm afraid that I will suffer a big disaster in the next second.
The patience of those two giant palms was surprisingly good, and they brought and went around here, and they came and went, and they vowed not to leave until they found the cannibal owl and Lu Lie. I don't know what kind of grudge this Huangquan giant has with humans, and it is enough to destroy the bronze barrier of the last survivor of the country on the tree, and even the two passers-by hiding in the tree will not let go.
Lu Lie forced himself to compose himself from the initial fear, and barely moved his head in the shallow pit, observing the trajectory of the two giant palms moving back and forth like mops. After a long time, the number and frequency of the two giant palms passing through here slowly decreased, as if the Yellow Spring Giant was also a little impatient, and gradually shifted the focus of the search to other places. The cannibal beside him couldn't see the situation around him clearly because he hit his head on the ground when he fell down, so he could only whisper to Lu Lie: "What's wrong, brother." How long are those two dog-sun palms going to sweep through here? When are they leaving?"
Lu Lie's eyes did not leave the direction of the giant palms, and only when they temporarily disappeared from his vision did he also mutter, "Damn, this Huangquan giant seems to have some spiritual intelligence, as if it is not low...... The main area of its two claws is the road above, the way we have to go...... It seems that according to the time estimate, it has calculated that according to the path we are traveling, it has almost reached the height of the road above...... Luckily we stopped here in time, otherwise I really don't know how we died......"
After being silent for a moment, Lu Lie said his speculation again: "Now we don't need to be in a hurry, just lie here quietly and wait for it to leave on its own." It's time to give us a little rest from the fugitives of the past few days...... According to Yang Wei's account, the account of the three heads is still the record of those people in the country of trees, it is impossible for this Huangquan giant to waste time here indefinitely, and if it is awake for a while, it will go back to Huangquan to sleep for a while. We'll just have to hold on until that time......"
The cannibal thought for a moment and said, "Brother, what you said makes sense, but have you ever thought about it...... The monster wasn't stupid either, and I could imagine its current posture without looking at it, stretching its hands around the stump and reaching behind it, groping repeatedly to find the two of us...... But how long can we play this game of peek-a-boo, and once the monster's patience runs out, it walks straight to the back of the giant tree and sweeps it with its dog-sun eyes, where can we hide?"
Lu Lie's heart contracted tightly, as if to confirm what the cannibal had said, and in the next moment, the two giant palms hovering on the tree wall disappeared, and after another moment, the entire tree wall began to tremble slightly, as if something extremely huge was approaching them.
"You crow's mouth ......" Lu Lie couldn't hide the tremor and fear in his voice, "I was really hit by your crow's mouth, this bastard didn't find us after groping in the tree for a long time, and he really came over......"
