Chapter 352: Puppet Demon Legion
In order to avoid suspicion, Cheng Shen never used the power of the bright red form, that ability was probably more like a devil than the abyss devil, lest the trust he had built up with great difficulty in the eyes of the goblin clan be ruined.
In addition, the area attack of the bright red form is not easy to control.
It's easy to distinguish between friend and foe.
But even so.
He didn't need to work too hard to clean up the executioners in front of him.
Along the way, most of the formation structure covered on the surface has been easily modified by Cheng Shen.
Even the Sacrificial Temple, which controlled the entire formation, didn't notice it.
Nearly half of the foundation that has been passed down from generation to generation has been under Cheng Shen's control! Every bit of magic energy they sent into the formation was providing a steady stream of energy replenishment to the solar fireball in the sky!
At this time.
Cheng Shen is completely using their strength to beat themselves!
This is happening, mainly because the big array seems to be a whole. In fact, it is already a bloated suture that has been continuously repaired by the inheritors of the Sacrifice Temple for dozens of generations.
And the level of the formation of these inheritors is even better.
The patching is pretty poor.
It's like putting layers upon layers of patches on a leaky iron bucket.
Over time, however, the breakage between these patches created new vulnerabilities.
and then repaired by posterity......
Reciprocating cycles.
Ultimately.
Even they didn't know what this formation had been transformed into, and the original power couldn't even exert one percent!
In Cheng Shen's eyes, it looks even more absurd and ridiculous, a three-ring formation that can accommodate tens of thousands of rune structures and can reach the standard medium level can only play a monitoring effect in the hands of the Sacrificial God Temple!
This is equivalent to,
Play Tetris with a brain-level computer!
At this moment, Cheng Shen is just simply sorting out and reorganizing the congested and sluggish formation structure, and only reusing less than one-third of the formation.
This makes the sun fireball in the sky get a strong amplification!
Every blow it unleashes is as powerful as four-ring magic! Those murderous and cunning executioners who faced the goblin elders seemed to have all turned into puppets that could be shattered at the touch of a touch in the face of the falling fire!
All they could do for the rest of the day was scream,
And wait for death!
Bang!
The city shook suddenly.
The outermost circle of stone houses suddenly sunk into the ground, revealing dark holes.
Heavy footsteps and wheezing sounded from the cave.
"It's a puppet army raised by the temple of sacrifice!"
Viman, who had just eased the crisis in front of him, immediately became nervous again.
Subsequently.
Cheng Shen saw the appearance of that legion clearly.
They have the appearance of human beings, one is bloated but like a mountain of meat, with layers of blue-black flesh and fat on their bodies, and some monsters even have rotten bodies, flowing outwards with intestines and internal organs.
"Eat ......!"
"Eat ......!"
Their bloodshot eyes were filled with confusion and madness, and only one sentence was repeated over and over again.
They try to stuff everything around them into their mouths.
Including dirt and stones!
"Oh no, we're surrounded!"
A goblin elder shouted anxiously.
This army of monsters appeared on the outskirts of the city, and immediately blocked all the goblins who had not yet evacuated, and they were like a wall that was constantly closing towards the center, as if it wanted to swallow the entire city into its belly!
"Gather your strength, open a gap, and break out!"
Weiman glanced at Cheng Shen, and then ordered without hesitation.
The combat-effective units of the entire goblin clan were basically in the city at this time, and immediately, under the command of the goblin elder, a famous goblin guard quickly gathered and formed a sharp knife to rush towards the north side of the city.
"I'm here to help you!"
Cheng Shen said.
Call!
Call!
Call!
Streams of fire fell, like meteorites, and smashed heavily on the defense line formed by monsters.
The bloated golem monster had no chance to dodge.
It was smashed into meat sauce!
Then.
The grease in their bodies ignites, creating a blazing dark green flame.
Cheng Shen raised his eyebrows slightly, and invited a gust of wind, which forcibly suppressed the burning momentum of the flames, allowing the goblin guards to escort the old and young, the sick and the disabled, and even let the raging flame waves pour down the hole in the ground!
Call!!
Fire borrows the wind.
In an instant, a surging wave of flames surged underground.
Countless monsters that had not had time to rush out were burned to death in the burrows, and the wails sounded from a sea of green fire, echoing through the hollows of the ground, as if the lonely ghosts of hell were howling.
Give somebody the creeps.
Cheng Shen glanced back and saw that no new executioners appeared, and he couldn't help but ask Xiang Weiman.
"Are there any normal humans in the underworld?"
He hadn't thought about it.
However, after seeing the executioners with abnormal body sizes and those puppet monsters, Cheng Shen couldn't help but start to be suspicious.
Supplies are already scarce underground.
Don't talk about meat.
Even the types of food are quite homogeneous.
In this environment, the lifespan of a normal human being can be maintained at twenty or thirty years old, even if the talent is amazing, but how did the famous executioner and puppet demon in front of him eat so fat and strong?
Just by using the goblin clan as blood food......
I'm afraid it's not enough.
A terrible guess gradually rose in Cheng Shen's heart.
Wieman's face was ugly, and he said, "I've only been underground once, when I was very young, but I'll never forget everything I saw there...... It was purgatory even more terrifying than the abyss! ”
His body trembled slightly involuntarily.
Then he said bitterly: "You may have only seen that the situation of our goblin clan is so difficult, but in fact, those beasts who sacrifice to the temple have never been merciful even to their kind!
From the beginning of its establishment, there have been thirty-two high priests in the temple to the present, but counting the gods and guards of each generation, and the selected gods and saints, the number is only a few dozen at the most.
These people,
In their eyes, they can be called real people! ”
"Dozens?" Cheng Shen paused and asked, "What about the other humans who have bred in each generation?" ”
"Some of them will be distributed as new breeding tools......
But in order to ensure the size of the population, this part of the population is usually not too many.
And the rest ......"
Wiman swallowed dryly, and said no more.
Cheng Shen's face was slightly gloomy, "In other words, there are not many normal humans in the entire underground?" ”
Wiemann pondered for a moment the definition of normal from Cheng Shen's perspective.
Then he shook his head firmly.
"It won't be! Their legacy has become utterly morbidly insane, and we're lucky to have befallen them......"
“……”
Cheng Shen nodded.
If he really did what Wiman said, then even if he burned the entire underground with a fire, he would not have to worry about hurting the innocent.
Of course.
He must have seen for himself what the situation was.
"Clean up the monsters on the ground first."
He took a deep breath.
Suddenly.
The fireballs in the sky began to spit out tongues of fire continuously, and the flowing flames fell, illuminating the dark underground world, and the raging flames began to cover the monsters that emerged on all sides of the city!
Crackling!
The thick grease on the monster's body burst into flames like a firecracker.
The aroma of barbecued meat wafts through the air!
But Cheng Shen's perception was quite keen, and he only felt that the smell of barbecue was filled with a foul rancid stench from the abyss.
Nauseating.
It was a reminder to him.
"The members of the Sacrificial Temple obviously have some means to manipulate the abyss pollution, whether it is the executioner or the monsters in front of them, they can see the traces of the abyssal pollution......
And one of the characteristics of the abyss is that it is very difficult to be completely killed.
Are they really dead......? ”
Cheng Shen looked up at the temple that was still burning.
In the previous hint, he got a kill message that didn't match what Wiman had mentioned. Not to mention whether the man is the real high priest of the temple of sacrifice, and the so-called son of God and the holy woman in his mouth are nowhere to be found!
They couldn't all have been suffocated in the temple.
Or rather.
The temple didn't look like a residential building either.
"There are also members of the shrine hiding underground."
Cheng Shen thought of this.
A hint of uneasiness gradually appeared in my heart.
According to the methods of this group of guys, I am afraid that they don't know what kind of perverted monsters they are cultivating in the underground world, even if they have dug a corner of the mine and can attract abyss pollution at any time, Cheng Shen is not surprised.
But that way.
I'm afraid that none of these goblins will die in front of me.
"Evacuate the crowd first!"
Cheng Shen made a decision immediately.
He didn't want to force the remaining members of the Sacrificial Temple to the point of breaking the net now, if he was alone, Cheng Shen was certainly not afraid, but when he came here, the purpose was no longer to explore.
"I'll help you get out of here first!"
He said to Viman.
"This ...... That's certainly good! ”
Wiman nodded repeatedly.
After seeing the hidden hole cards of the temple of the sacrifice god, they had no intention of revenge at all, just kidding, not to mention the terrifying puppet demon army, just those dozens of executioners could slaughter their entire clan!
avenge
You have to be capable.
More important than revenge is the continuation of the survival of the race!
"But how do we get through the abyssal passage ......? We've tried to enter, but as soon as we enter that passage, we're turned into monsters by a terrible force. ”
Wiman asked worriedly.
"Take this!"
Cheng Shen shook his hand and threw bundles of lightless candles to Weiman, "After this kind of candle is lit, it can protect you for a short time!" But I have a limited number at my disposal, and you need to make a decision to let a small group go first! ”
He quickly explained the use and function of the Lightless Candle.
Viman's face suddenly grimaced.
A lightless candle can burn for about fifteen minutes, but in reality, it must be lit from the moment you enter the abyss passage, and until you leave the mine, it will take at least twenty minutes or so at the speed of ordinary people.
A Lightless Candle can protect up to five people in radius.
Other words.
Two lightless candles were needed to get the five goblins out of the mine safely.
However, Cheng Shen had entered the mine for a short time, and he had not refined many lightless candles in total.
At the moment, this could get more than a hundred goblins out of here.
But there are thousands of goblins living in the city.
"My personal suggestion is to let the able-bodied goblins withdraw first, they are the basis for the continuation of the race."
Cheng Shen said.
His countenance at this moment was full of indifference and ruthlessness in Wiman's eyes.
It's natural.
Cheng Shen is busy with work, not to help some worthless old, weak, sick and disabled.
Of course, if he has spare strength, he won't mind this, the consumption of goblins is already low, even if he takes these people out, it will consume hundreds of more units of food every day, some burdens but the actual problem is not big.
But if you have to make a choice.
Cheng Shen had to force Weiman to make a decision in his favor.
He knew that Wiman was not a soft-hearted person, as could be seen from his previous performance, and he did not hesitate to force another goblin elder of similar rank to death in order to take power.
If it weren't for the ruthlessness.
He would not have made the decision to cooperate with Cheng Shen so decisively.
"I see!"
Wei Man nodded quickly in the face of Cheng Shen's eyes, and he did not leave, but handed the Lightless Candle to another elder.
Then.
Whisper a few words in his ear.
The goblin elder's face changed suddenly, and his pleading gaze kept wandering over Cheng Shen, but in the end, he just gritted his teeth and turned away.
Wieman's appearance seemed to have aged countless years in an instant.
Cheng Shen glanced at him.
"Don't worry too much, maybe my worries are just superfluous, we still have plenty of time to protect the others from leaving," he said. ”
Wiman smiled wryly and shook his head.
He opened his mouth.
I wanted to say something, but in the end I didn't say it, just said: "No matter what, I have become a sinner of the whole race, and I have no face to face them again, perhaps, death here is my best destination." ”
"But you're right to consider your choice in the interests of the community."
Cheng Shen said.
"Maybe."
Wiman sighed under his breath.
He didn't know whether it was right or wrong to put the fate of the clan in the hands of Cheng Shen, and whether it had pushed his clan into another abyss.
But think about it from another angle,
What could be worse than the current situation?
This is the fundamental reason why Wiman is desperate for it.
As he said.
Don't fight anymore.
They don't even have the qualifications to fight desperately.
Bang!!
As the two were talking.
In the distance, the lava-covered temple suddenly exploded in the middle, and a large amount of dark sludge poured out of it, immediately pouring out the hot lava and solidifying, and a breath mixed with the stench of decay poured out overwhelmingly.
“…… Who is it! ”
A dull roar erupted from the cracked temple, and then the sound sounded in a different tone, as if countless voices overlapped, men, women, and children, mixed with the roars of monsters.
Crash!
A bloated head suddenly protruded from the sludge, it was made up of countless human heads, their eyes closed, black mud flowing between the cracks, and an incomparably large gray-green eye embedded in the middle!
"This, this, what kind of monster ......is this?!"
Wiemann's eyes trembled in horror.
"Don't look!"
Cheng Shen immediately reminded him loudly.
The familiar perception made him immediately understand that the monster in front of him was the same as the polluted aggregate he had encountered before.
But that polluted aggregate still needs to unleash skills to make people hit.
But this monster in front of you.
Just looking at it can plunge people into chaos and madness!
