Chapter 845: Soul Eater
It's actually quite simple, the plane passage is hidden inside the building, so we can't see it from the outside, and if you want to enter the building, it's easy to get lost because you're not familiar with the terrain. Therefore, in order to avoid all kinds of troubles, it is safer to let the passage carefully protected by the group of toads be directly exposed. As for how to do it......
Even without heavy fire support, buildings are still man-made and can be destroyed by Blood Curse Soul Strikes. Of course, if I hide in the shadows, the enemy will definitely strengthen the defense of the plane passage as soon as they see the building disintegrating, because they know that I am nearby, but if it is on this small hill that can be easily discovered, and with a few miscellaneous soldiers summoned by Mengyun, even if the opponent is full of undead, most of them will be attracted to look over to this side - when the time comes, let the furball take us directly to the side of the unnoticed passage and then get into it.
Okay, so far the plans are perfect, and there is basically no danger. The real key thing is what happens after passing through the passage, there is no doubt that there are a large number of bat wings and countless hunting crawlers, 100% monster exhibitions, even if I can burn the black long straight soul in my heart and transform into horse monkey soju, it is very likely that I will be caught by the other party if I am not careful, all kinds of [beep-] and [beep-] and [beep-].
And what's worse is that I don't have the slightest idea what to do or how to do it in the future, because we don't know what we're going to do. If I had to say, I was going to improvise β as Emmilina used to do.
What the hell, that out-of-spec horse monkey soju must be responsible for this, she was stunned to bring the scum 5 like I brought it to life!?
Well, now is not the time to think nonsense, I have to find out the weaknesses of the research center building so that I can attack it at any time. It didn't take long for me to find my purpose. Firmly lassoed it with the sight of the scope: "Mengyun, have you completed your summoning? I can already shoot here." β
"Wait, wait, stupid brother, don't talk to me at a critical moment!"
It is true that when holding mantras, mages need to concentrate all their minds and attention, and must not be distracted casually, otherwise it is easy to go wrong, so when they squat at home to practice, they will choose an extremely quiet place so as not to be disturbed. It's just that every time I see Emilina casting spells, this girl is basically instantaneous, rarely chanting without speaking, and sometimes she can even throw magic at the enemy while showing off her daily conversations, and over time she has developed a bad habit of chatting with the mage even if she is holding a spell.
Luckily, the mages I met, such as Saizeriya or Pearson, weren't fuel-efficient lamps either. This didn't cause much trouble, but this time the situation was different, Mengyun was a pink newcomer who had only learned elementary magic for a long time, and he had never mastered spells at all, so my casual conversation immediately distracted the little girl.
I was so busy trying to understand the reason that I was about to turn around when I dropped the gun, after all, we have a very special physique, even if my precious sister's spell gets out of control, it can calm down in an instant. However, I soon realized that this was completely unnecessary, because Mengyun also had a magical constitution, and was not afraid of the erosion of dark energy at all.
So I looked back and saw a jaw-dropping and exaggerated scene: a large number of black air currents visible to the naked eye were whistling and circling around Mengyun's body like a hurricane, it was obvious that the spell had gone out of control and completely went berserk, but it did not cause any damage to the little girl, this black "tornado" not only blocked the light and made the surroundings darker. At the same time, a lot of debris was blown away, so that I could have a good experience of the sandstorm weather in the imperial capital, which is a perfect interpretation of what is called flying sand and rocks in the real sense.
The black tornado rushed into the sky, and there were even a lot of lilac lightning in the middle, and the movement was not ordinary, and I bet that the toads in the research center had definitely discovered us with the bound pets that exploded in shock on my head.
"It's all to blame stupid brother, you talked to me, and the result that was supposed to be good has become like this!" Mengyun, who was very annoyed with his pout, stomped his foot hatefully and said angrily, "You must know that I used that crystal card, how are you going to compensate me if I fail?"
"Compensate your sister. That's obviously a gift from me, right!?" I couldn't help but laugh and put on a messy expression that was too standard to be overcome, and said in pain, "Anyway, you can move like this." Bet the enemy has already spotted us, and they'll be over in less than five minutes!"
"No, there's no way to move a single step. Woo, I don't want to be caught by a toad like the heroine in your gentleman's game, stupid brother, and forcibly banged. β
"When is this all going on, can we stop talking about gentleman's games!?"
Sure enough, the plan can't catch up with the changes, and the changes can't compare to the everyday! Even at such a tense moment, the anxious person still couldn't help but oozed countless cold sweats and black lines on his head. At the same time, I once again deeply realized the great power of the so-called everyday.
Anyway, the most important thing now is to find a way to get out of here so as not to be caught by the enemies who rush over to take a look, and I'll take care of the runaway spell. Although it feels a pity to waste crystal cards, there is no way to do it.
But my outstretched hand did not touch my precious sister's spell, but touched the summon of the spell.
A rather ugly monster with a dark, hard shell, slender and sturdy. He had six legs so that he looked a bit like an insect, but the soles of his feet resembled the claws of animals, his head was round and resembled a human skull, and his hand was pressed against the door of his head at the moment, this guy was born without eyes, but I could clearly feel that he was looking at me in some other way, not even the hairball on the top of his head, and there was a tail behind his butt that was covered with a thick carapace, and he wielded it with no less power than a steel whip.
Seriously, for the first time in my life, I hope that my good friend (self-proclaimed) Liu Tao is now by my side, so that we can ask him who is not a normal creature in front of him, which class and family is it.
It's not enough to just know what the other party is, this guy is not a living thing at all, but it doesn't seem to me to be a real undead. Ya's body exudes an incomparably strong cold aura of death and despair. Swearing by Sister Blue Feather's cookies, I only felt that I was touching death at that moment.
Then our hand was raised by the other party's claws and slapped away from our front unceremoniously - although the spell was rampant, it did not fail after all, it was still a summon of Mengyun, and it would not harm the summoner and his little friend. It's just that the others are not so easy to say, especially when Mengyun points to the bottom of the hillside and yells at it, "Kill all the toads......
Obviously, Mengyun can't completely control this beast, and it didn't pay attention to the little girl's orders at first, but there are many people in this world besides me who are also willing to take the initiative to die, no, it means that some things happen naturally, and others can't stop it even if they want to.
It has been said before. This small hill is very close to the research center, and Mengyun and I can stand up at the slope and the enemy will be able to spot the two of us. Now that such a big movement has been made, how can the other side continue to hide in the building and pretend not to see it? A large group of toad infantry rushed out with guns and guns in a menacing manner, and fired at themselves with their backs to them.
I didn't realize the danger until the gunshots rang out, but it was too late to react. However, the enemy's bullets did not hit the embarrassed person, because the strength of the beast was so great that I lost my balance on the spot and staggered to the ground.
The dense bullets were all stuck in the beast's face and chest.
You see, sometimes things just hurt like that, I mean coincidence. It's a pity that the toads' guns are powerful. The bullet hit the surface of the beast but did not cause any damage, but was bounced out by its incomparably hard shell - if it weren't for the fact that we saw the opportunity and quickly rolled into the distance, we would have been hit by the flying bullet.
So what kind of defense does this thing have, is it a six-legged tank!?
The beast, the size of two adults, was immediately enraged, and instead of making a rough or shrill cry, it jumped high and jumped down from the slope. Just when I thought that this guy would pounce on the enemy army with the momentum of a tiger descending the mountain, I was shocked to see a pair of translucent wings spread from its back, and swooped down at a very high speed over the heads of the panicked toads shooting indiscriminately in the air below.
Then the guy stretched out six legs, grabbed an unlucky toad, and lifted him into the air. To be precise, it's not called Tiyo, Ya is simply tying up the latter. Make the other person completely immobile. At this time, I already realized what was going to happen next, and I originally planned to run to Mengyun's side and cover the little girl's eyes so that she would not be stimulated, but the beast's movements were too fast, and we didn't have time at all.
The two legs in the center of the beast's torso let go of the prey and raised it high back, and the toad also found something bad and struggled desperately, but his limbs were firmly grasped by the other four claws of the beast. All efforts failed, and from the wrists of the beast's middle legs suddenly popped out something that shimmered with a cold light that looked like an incomparably sharp blade, the length of which was definitely reminiscent of a scythe used to harvest crops.
However, what this guy wants to harvest is obviously not a crop.
The toad was cut off by the whole block, and I don't want to describe the liquid and a lot of strange mosaics in the middle, but what really frightened us was the action of the beast after completing the killing. I saw that it did not let go of the corpse that had been broken in two. Instead, he lowered his head and opened his skeletal mouth and began to suck on something.
Bet with all the blood bags that Tias had bought through special means that the guy was definitely not sucking the blood of the toad, because its mouth was still quite far from the corpse, and the girl should not be able to suck in anything but air.
Well, I don't need to prove that I know how superficial I really are, so it's certainly not that simple.
Some strange faint blue translucent mist was "sucked" out of the toad's corpse, and split into several streams that entered the beast's mouth like a river entering the sea at the same convergence point. Although I saw this scene very realistically thanks to our special eyesight, I didn't know what this dark blue thing was, and I didn't have the slightest clue about it.
Until a vivid toad's head emerges from the cut of the corpse. Seeing this, the fierce beast immediately took the initiative to open its mouth wide and bite the toad's head into its mouth, and then slowly chewed and swallowed.
The beast is eating nothing but the soul!
I was glad that the unlucky ones killed by that beast were from the Mantius tribe, because all the toads that had been sent to the front by the demons had been transformed into undead, and they were already dead. If he were a living human, he would not only suffer the great pain of being cut in half, but he would even have to be forcibly removed from his body by a fierce beast when he was about to die...... I don't dare to think about it anymore.
Mengyun, what kind of existence did you summon, heyββ!? after the servants summoned twice in a row were nonsensical funny characters, did you finally can't help but bribe the author?
The last sentence above doesn't count, in short, thanks to this anti-heaven guy made up by the little girl, the toads on the ground have fallen into chaos, and they can no longer care about continuing to pay attention to my side, how can such a great opportunity be wasted casually?
The terrifying beast finished eating the scraps in his hand and began to hunt again, even though I knew in my heart that those toads were intelligent creatures equivalent to humans, I still felt that the scene in front of me was no different from the predation between ordinary animals in nature.
No, it's a predator, and other creatures are prey, there's no doubt about it.
Instead of paying attention to the scene of chickens and dogs jumping not far away, I tried to keep a low profile and picked up the Blood Curse Soul Strike, and found the weak point of the building and gently pulled the trigger.
It was clear that even with the commotion outside, there were still a few soldiers of the Mantius clan standing guard near the dimensional passage. It's just that the location of the passage seems to be on the third and fourth floors, and although the scale is not large, the height is ......
Well, it's okay for the undead to fall from three or four floors anyway, right? )
