The Storm Rises Chapter 59 Extermination and Hidden Dangers
The blood mist cleared, the smoke gathered, and the Smoke Demon Knight with a great axe stood above the ruins after the explosion.
The surrounding houses had already been destroyed by the explosion just now, and the only ones left on the field at the moment were Xiu Geyin and the "God of Life" Elfin.
"Even a thing like you deserves to be called a god, a god who is not even as good as a demon? It's ridiculous, isn't it?"
A low, hoarse voice like a blade slashed emanated from the giant Smoke Knight.
The ugly voice mocked mercilessly, aiming its eyes at the huge eyeballs of Shoguin.
"Shut upβ" was interrupted by a steady, magnetic voice.
"Cut, I'm the one who has the best relationship with you, let me say what's wrong, this guy dares to call himself a "god"? β
"Neither is a comedyβ" The low, hoarse voice stopped abruptly before it could finish.
And the knight of the smoke also began to act, and while the knight was still, the huge eyeballs did not stop.
The surrounding matter is brought to life again, and this time, it is more concentrated and more elite.
The entire ground was given life, reduced to a bog of flesh and blood.
From within, bloody tentacles like skinned octopus tentacles, with sharp barbs, rolled towards Shoguin.
The shattered ruins of masonry around them were once again brought to life, only this time they were no longer separate individuals, but converged into a single entity.
Pieces of flesh and blood were spliced together, and a large number of masonry fragments were combined, covering the surface with carapaces, and arthropods growing on the sides.
A giant centipede creature was born out of thin air.
The giant centipede trampled through the flesh mire and ran wildly unhindered, while the tentacles sticking out of the mire harassed the Smoke Demon Knight.
In the face of the attacks of both, the choice of the Smoke Demon Knight is to ignore it directly, and yes, ignore it.
Completely ignoring the incoming centipedes, he rushed in a straight path towards the giant eye attached to the wall.
Xiu Geyin had already heard Wang Yu's reminder, and he had decided to solve the source of this anomaly in one fell swoop.
Flesh tentacles coiled upward, and they were greeted by a puff of smoke.
Smoke swept away from the Smoke Demon Knight, enveloping the fleshy tentacles in turn, spinning like fluid.
The smoke rolls up, but the effect is no different from the frantic cutting of a meat grinder.
In just an instant, all the tentacles that swept over were broken, the skin was opened, the flesh was full of holes, and it turned into useless minced flesh and fell into the flesh and blood mire.
The Smoke Demon Knight's charge was fast and unstoppable, and the extremely fast dash was not stopped by the flesh swamp in the slightest.
The raging giant narrowed the distance between him and the source of the mutation to within ten meters in the blink of an eye.
And at this moment, the Smoke Demon Knight also met the giant centipede that was charging head-on.
The cobra coiled its body, and the centipede raised its mouthparts, which had grown strong and sharp fangs, and hissed at the three-meter-tall body of the Smoke Demon Knight.
Ignoring the centipede's warning, no matter what it did, all Shuggin had to do was split the giant eye.
In the face of the onrushing Smoke Demon Knight, the centipede suddenly burst out, and its extremely long body spread out in all directions, forming an encirclement around the Smoke Demon Knight's three-meter-tall body.
Even though this smoke giant has a three-meter-tall body, it still looks a little small in the face of this giant centipede that is tens of meters long.
The flesh swamp also boiled at the right time, and a giant flesh hand stretched out from its inside, and opened its five fingers to grasp the smoke demon knight surrounded by the body of a centipede.
The centipede also shrank its body in all directions, curling up towards its prey as if a hunter were tightening a trap.
The surface of the arthropod flickered with sharp cold light, and it continued to advance back and forth to form a chainsaw-like effect, enough to cut gold and stone.
There are bloody hands that are pressed down, and there are centipede bodies surrounded by them, and there are nets in the sky, and it seems that the Smoke Demon Knight has nowhere to escape.
"Poof!" The bloody hand fell and slapped on the blood swamp, and the centipede completed the siege of its prey at this moment.
The two overlapped at this moment, and it looked as if the bloody hand was pressed to the ground, and the body of the centipede coiled around it.
The Smoke Demon Knight in the middle was no longer able to see a little of his body, and seemed to be completely covered and shrouded by it, and was hunted in the posture of a prey.
But obviously, this is just a delusion.
In the cracks of the centipede's body, wisps of mist floated out of it, and the gas-like mist was not hindered by it at all.
Emerging from the crevices, the bloodmarsh seemed to notice the strange smoke, and tentacles continued to poke out of the bloodswamp and grasp the smoke that began to thicken in the air.
The centipede also stretched out its countless limbs, trying to hit the smoke with its body.
But how could the ethereal smoke be disturbed by these things, passing through all obstacles without delay, condensing and converging.
Shoguein appeared under the giant eye with a trench coat, holding the unburned cigar in his hand.
Pick up the cigar, take a deep breath, and exhale, smoke pouring out from your mouth and nose.
This time, Xiu Geyin didn't incarnate the giant smoke demon knight again, and the smoke gathered and condensed behind him.
A larger Smoke Knight appeared, standing behind Shoguein.
With the cigar in his hand completely burning, the huge smoke knight was also fully formed.
The body that reached an eight-meter height confronted the giant eyeballs attached to the city walls, and they were on a par
For a moment, it seemed that a wicked and arrogant smile appeared on the corner of the mouth of the giant smoke knight, and then disappeared in an instant.
The blood swamp and the centipede behind them went completely crazy, and the centipede's body rushed like a train, and countless palms in the blood swamp grabbed here from the inside.
But it was too late, and Shugg picked up his blood-stained axe and volleyed it down from top to bottom.
The giant smoke knight behind him made the same move, and the huge smoke axe in his hand slashed down from top to bottom.
With a devastating blow from the huge smoke axe, the body of the giant eye had no room to stop it, and it was split in two by the seemingly non-sharp smoke axe blade without delay.
The blade of the axe, which was too huge, even the city wall that the huge eyeball was clinging to, was deeply chiseled, and a huge scar, from top to bottom, broke the wall all the way.
The flesh crumbled, and a strange liquid gushed out from the inside of the giant eyeball, and the contents of the eyeball poured out like crazy, disgusting.
The slime matter, which looked like the pupils of an eyeball, tried to lean towards the edge of the eyeball to dodge the blade that slashed vertically.
It was so fast that it actually dodged the axe before it fell, but it didn't make sense.
Smoke swept out of the amorphous blade, enveloping the nimble slime and sealing it in its path.
Spun up, cut and decompose, and the invisible smoke erupted with astonishing destructive power, and in the smoke, the dark green slime was completely shattered.
The inner core was completely shattered, and two things also fell off and were caught by Shogyin.
The centipedes and blood swamps that rushed behind them also crumbled the moment the slime shattered, and the centipedes turned into a large number of flying bricks, and the blood swamp became a rushing mud wave.
"Puff puff" Xiu Ge calmly looked at the two objects in his hand, and the smoke knight behind him, with his back, blocked all the flying objects for Xiu Gein.
The masonry fell to the ground, the dirt piled up, and the Smoke Knight crumbled away little by little, turning into ethereal smoke.
Wang Yu could see a wisp of smoke drifting out of invisibility, burrowing into the lantern on Xiu Geyin's waist.
Edward looked at Charles, who was no longer shaking under his body, and let go of the suppression of this guy.
Now that the captain has taken back the demon, it should mean that the matter is over.
Wang Yu felt the changes around him, the Void Energy Field with a master had disappeared, his ripples were no longer suppressed, and within ten meters in diameter, everything was once again meticulous.
It seems that the source of the mutation has indeed been destroyed, and the power it possesses has dissipated.
I looked at it, and the things that had been given life around me had stopped living again, and had turned into lifeless dead things.
It was a mess of the city wall, and all the buildings around it had collapsed because of the battle.
Wang Yu is actually quite shocked, in his cognition, the destructive power of the knight itself is limited after all, and it cannot be compared with a mage.
However, Xiu Geyin's destructive power and his terrifying inner potential can be said to have completely subverted Wang Yu's perception of the knight's profession to a certain extent.
Running forward, Wang Yu looked at the two objects in the captain's hand, very familiar things, which also proved that his guess was correct.
A steel cone engraved with various runes, and a sacred emblem engraved with a dense forest and one of the towering trees in it.
These two things are exactly the same as the things that Wang Yu took out of the goblin's body.
After thinking about it, Wang Yu made a request to Xiu Geyin, "Captain, can you show me this holy emblem, I want to confirm the status of this "Source of Life" Elfin just like I did with the Night Lady." β
"Yes" Xiu Geyin nodded, it seems that he must have learned about Wang Yu's research on the Night Lady through the professor.
He took the steel cone in Xiu Geyin's hand, drove lightly, and recited the contents on the holy emblem.
"I praise your name, the source of life, the great tree that spans the ancients, the caretaker of the living, the merciful elder..."
Before the steel cone reacted and tried to nail Wang Yu's Tianling cover to control him, Wang Yu directly crushed it.
The material of this steel cone is very special, and it is very simple to break it when you really get started.
The light cluster flowed out from the inside and burrowed into Wang Yu's mind.
With Xiu Geyin by his side, Wang Yu was not worried about any accidents.
Looking directly inward, and the spirit was invested in the body, Wang Yu once again stood on the surface of the lake under the starry sky.
He saw the figure of the Night Lady, who was standing next to Wang Yu, looking in a distant direction.
Wang Yu followed his gaze and found an old man, an old man who was in an extremely wrong state.
The old man looked to be a very old and high-status elder, and his robe was a collection of green coats of arms, elegant and mysterious.
The wooden scepter in his hand and the sleek and slender antlers growing out of his head look the same as the traditional druid.
However, his current state is extremely wrong, the old man's skin that should have a trace of wrinkles on his body is transparent and smooth at the moment, and it seems to be some kind of liquid inside.
The originally kind old man's face was now closed, and his face rose up like pus-like objects, and the disgusting liquid in it was tumbling endlessly.
The old man collapsed to the ground, and all parts of his body swelled strangely, like a strange patient with sarcoma all over his body, and his robe could not hide the bulging and mutated flesh.
"He is polluted" The words of the Night Lady resounded beside Wang Yu, and he couldn't hear the meaning clearly, but there should be a hint of pity.
"As you say, tainted by the madness of those believers?"
"Yes, it should be the slimes who believe in him, these unintelligent creatures, the instinct is to split, devour, and merge..."
"This has created a great conflict with Him himself, and, like me, at that time only this one creature believed in Him..."
"But this Source of Life Church has already formed a large scale here..."Wang Yu objected.
In the Walled Walls, according to the information provided by the professor, the Church of the Source of Life had already appeared a few months earlier, and the so-called rites of return of life had already begun.
"Those beliefs are not directed at Him but at the Slime, and everyone thinks that their gods are indefinite and twisted, which only gets worse..."
Wang Yu thought about it, I'm afraid it's really like this.
"I don't think you gods are a little too much, well, a little weaker, though much stronger than me."
Wang Yu had always been a little puzzled, these gods he encountered didn't seem to be so "divinistic", nor were they so powerful that they couldn't be matched.
On the contrary, the two so-called gods, the Night Lady and the Source of Life, seemed extremely passive, and even restrained by his own followers, which he couldn't quite understand.
It may be that the only one who fits the image of the god in his image is the god of light.
But other gods, such as Elfin, the source of life, were even single-handedly "killed" by Shoguin.
"I also want to know why I am the so-called god in your mouth, and I have no choice."
Lady Night's words made Wang Yu not know how to answer, and he seemed to have inadvertently moved the rules and regulations of the earth to this world.
Should gods be omnipotent, and should gods despise so-called mortals, this also seems to be a kind of stereotyped thinking.
The gods themselves can't choose what their abilities are, whether they are strong or not...
"Maybe I'm taking it for granted," Wang Yu rubbed his chin.
"Well, I hope you can keep your promise and spread my faith."
"I don't want to be like him, who is still crumbling at this moment, and becomes the kind of posture that shouldn't belong."
"Wait, what did you say?" Wang Yu suddenly noticed the problem in the Night Lady's words.
"Wasn't He killed?" Wang Yu looked at the body of the "Source of Life" Elfin, which was being virtualized.
This distorted old man had already begun to gradually blur like this when he came in.
He thought it was the captain who killed the "god", but the Night Lady's words made him feel that something was wrong.
"No, it's not dying, he's just crumbling, he's changing in the direction that believers misinterpreted, turning into a slime-like twist."
So the prayer on the emblem I recited is actually nothing to do with the god "Source of Life"? β
"So I'm no longer able to use the original prayer to connect with Him?"
"Because he has become something completely different from the original source of life?"
"Your conjecture is not wrong...", the Night Lady agreed with Wang Yu's statement.
"Grass, it's not because he's gone, it's because this guy doesn't match the prayer!"
Wang Yu was still a little surprised, but he didn't expect that this guy's blurring was not because he died, but because he had become another god, and he couldn't help but swear a foul mouth.
Quickly exiting from the mental space, Wang Yu was ready to tell the others about this discovery.
But after he withdrew from the mental space, the professor's solemn words sounded in his ears.
"The Source of Life should have two abilities in the record, one is "Life Restitution" and the other should be "Immortal Seed". β
"The former has already shown itself in your battles, but the latter, I'm afraid this source of life is not completely dead..."
"Ahem, some are busy," Huggin took a puff of his pipe and coughed twice, his tone not fluctuating, just a sentence that might have been a complaint.
Charles and Edward looked at each other, and Wang Yu frowned.
β¦β¦
At the same time, at the orphanage on the edge of the city, a troop of cavalry arrived with some children, most of whom were numb and a few of them were crying.
Several middle-aged women in the orphanage comforted the children with kind words, washing their dirty clothes and faces.
They were all orphans rescued by the city guards during this incident, and their parents, who believed in the source of life, had been turned into flesh monsters.
These children, who had no concept, but because of coincidence and no belief in this concept, some of them survived and were sent to the orphanage in the royal city.
"Vanessa, be obedient in the future, Edward and I will come to see you later"
The middle-aged knight who helped Edward take care of Vanessa touched Vanessa's head and told the black and thin little girl with a kind smile.
Vanessa nodded obediently, although she didn't speak, but she was very obedient, and obediently followed the aunt in the orphanage to change clothes and assign rooms.
The middle-aged knight sighed, what a good boy, these damn cults, thinking of this, his fists couldn't help but clench.
He shook his head, turned and got on his horse and left, and then came with Edward to see the poor obedient boy more.
Although I can't resurrect her parents, at least let her get a better education, I don't know if she has a magical talent...
Behind her, Vanessa turned her head and looked expressionlessly at the back of the middle-aged knight riding away.
The pupils of the eyes melted at some point, turning into a pool of dark green colloid, which circled the eyeballs.
"Vanessa, hurry!" Auntie's call came.
"Hmm," Vanessa replied softly, her pupils returning to normal.
(Ask for a comment, ask for a collection hahaha)
