Ian really didn't know what to do with the situation. He thought about taking Ivy out of this level first, and then making a decision when he found Bowen and Green, or Greg. But it turns out that the plan never catches up with the change, and just as he and Ivy are about to leave, the whole mountain shakes.

The passage they were in, if I guessed correctly, should have been an easy passage dug by dwarven miners thousands of years ago, which is why it was dug so low and not reinforced. In the past thousand years, there has not been much shaking in the ground, and this has been preserved. However, now, the awakening of [Gornes] seems to have really verified the word "natural disaster", or perhaps it was too much trouble before it, loosening the rocks underground.

All in all, the improvised passage where Ian and Ivy were located was buried little by little in this tremor. Ian had wanted to leave the passage with Ivy quickly, but as soon as this consciousness came out of his mind, the dirt behind him collapsed, completely blocking the passage.

Seeing this, Ian was so angry that he almost didn't faint. He finally found a way out, but he was completely blocked in the next moment. How is he going to get back to the next floor?Will he go back the way he came?When all the chains have been broken by [Gornes], it is undoubtedly impossible to go back the way he came.

Ian didn't know what to do.

"Wait, something seems wrong. Ivy lowered her voice and said, "Something—"

Before she could finish her sentence, a dark shadow suddenly appeared behind Ian. Ian subconsciously grabbed it, and it quickly wrapped around Ian's arm, and Ian thought it was a snake, and stabbed the "snake" seven inches with a dagger. His movements were already very slow, but the "snake" was even slower, which directly made Ian pierce his body, and his soft body quickly stiffened.

"What is this?" exclaimed Ivy.

Ian then realized that it was not a snake, it was eight points similar to the size of the snake, like a maggot that had been magnified countless times, the whole body was dark red, there were no eyes, except for the body was a huge mouth, and the mouth looked like a sucker. Ivy looked at the monster with a look of disgust: "Why do I think this thing is familiar." ”

Of course familiarity, it's this kind of guy who almost sucks your blood dry. Ian thought to himself.

That's right, this is the "tentacle" that Ian saw in the [Fire Temple] on the second basement floor. At that time, these tentacles were hiding in the pool, and the surrounding area was very dark, so Ian couldn't see what they looked like, and subconsciously thought that they were the tentacles of some kind of giant creature, like squid in the ocean. He didn't expect these "tentacles" to exist in the form of individuals.

And—

Ian looked at the blood slowly flowing from his left arm. It's not his, it's coming out of the monster's body. He stabbed a large hole in the giant maggot with his dagger, and blood flowed out of the wound, and Ian was sure it was human blood. The giant maggot has a store of human blood in its body, as evidenced by the fact that its body turns from dark red to light gray as the blood drains.

Ian threw the dead maggots down, looked at [Gornes] clinging to the rock wall, and whispered, "I have a very bad premonition. ”

[Gornis] has not moved for a long time, and after destroying the stone pillar and breaking free from the chains, it has quietly clinged to the rock wall, like a living fossil. But Ian knew it was an illusion, and even if it was still, [Gornes] still had its giant mouth, revealing its sharp fangs.

What is it waiting for?

Ian knew that he was waiting for the bug he had just intercepted. And he believed that there must be more than one such bug. Soon, Ian's speculation became a reality, and in the darkness, countless insects scurried out of the mountain. They have the ability to swim across the rock face, and quickly swim towards Gornis.

Ian wasn't too far away from [Gornes], and with his excellent eyesight, he could see bugs burrowing into [Gornes]'s mouth. However, Ivy couldn't see that far, and she couldn't even see [Gornis] clearly because she was so close to the faint candle flame beside her that she could only see countless black shadows scurrying in the air.

"What's that?"

"I don't know. Ian shook his head, "However, I guess what we're seeing now isn't the real [Gornis]. ”

From the current point of view, it is indeed very strong, if it is not strong, the dwarves will not use such means to blockade it for a thousand years. However, it was not strong enough, although it could break free from those chains, although it could destroy the stone pillar that had stood for a thousand years without falling, it was still not as good as the dragon king.

Ian still can't forget the devastating might of Nathan, the Wind King. The storm that spat out of Nathan's mouth was like a sharp blade from the sky, splitting the entire World Tree in two, and even Ian, who possessed [Space] and [Endless Life], almost died under that storm.

Compared to Nathan, the Wind King, [Gornis] is much weaker. It's more like the immature Fire King Naga, not even a Naga can compare. If [Gornis] is "only" this kind of strength, how dare he be called the "strongest ghost"? The Burial God Desert is a place that claims to be able to bury gods, and from the current point of view, the gap between [ghosts] and [gods] is really too big.

Therefore, Ian guessed that the current [Gornes] is not the most complete [Gornes]. The Peony royal family let so many hunters die here, definitely not simply trying to weaken the strength of the hall.

Those bugs are the key!

No, no, no, to be precise, it's the blood stored by those bugs that is the key!

Ian's speculation soon became a reality. Countless bugs burrowed into [Gornis]'s mouth, stuffing its mouth slowly, looking like a fat man who was overeating, but many, many times more disgusting. With the last worm burrowing into Gornes' mouth, Gornes finally moved.

It took a bite to go.

Even from this distance, Ian could still hear the tooth-aching click. All of the insects were bitten to death by [Gornes] in its mouth, and some were bitten into several knots, and blood spurted directly from between its teeth. Even though Ian has been through countless big scenes, he is still made to vomit by this scene.

Fortunately, there was nothing left in his stomach to vomit.

After digesting all the bugs, Gornes let out another roar.
