Chapter 129: Defective Product

Unlike the previous magic bullets that caused death erosion, the Hound Fangs couldn't damage the Behemoth's body and suppress the resurgence of the life force as the Breath of Death did, but when Shug used it to attack the Beast's vulnerabilities, its effect was more immediate and impactful.

With the impact of the bullet, an incomparably large and terrible void was "dug out" on the two-story tall figure, whether it was skin or flesh, everything in it disappeared in an instant.

With the help of his magical vision, Xiuge saw that the blessing of the gods in the body of the giant beast that supported the growth and reorganization of the flesh had completely disappeared with the huge damage caused by the tooth of the hound, just like a huge machine had lost its most critical core part, and the altar that had been continuously operating immediately stopped, and the light on the demonic iron chains that bound the body of the giant beast also dimmed......

Shuge breathed a sigh of relief.

As it stands, it seems that he has achieved his goal - now that the ancient altar has ceased to function, and without the blessing of Mother Earth that it provides, it is only a matter of time before the beast dies, no matter how tenacious its original vitality may be.

And now, whether it's for the sake of insurance or for the sake of what may not be very important humanitarianism, Xiuge intends to hasten the death of the giant beast in front of him.

Yes, even after suffering such an exaggerated trauma, it still lives tenaciously on its own vitality.

It's just that now, that kind of vitality is no longer the "favor" of Mother Earth God, but more like a curse that prolongs pain and suffering.

Instead of wasting his last remaining Hound's Fang ammo, he slowly moved forward, ready to use magic or Calon's touch to end the other's life that should not have lasted for a long time.

However, before he took two steps, this mass of "rotten meat" that was still writhing suddenly had a new change.

In Xiuge's magical perception, an unfamiliar fluctuation suddenly appeared, and the source of that fluctuation was in the deepest part of the giant beast's body.

The mist of the emissary in the mirror immediately surged into Xiuge's eyes, and he clearly saw that the power that had previously dissipated in this huge body actually began to condense towards its depths again, and with this abnormal power convergence, this huge body began to shrink and collapse at an alarming rate.

In just a few seconds, the beast, which was originally two stories tall, shrunk to one-third of its original size, and the flesh that had been controlled by the demonic chains was easily freed from the restraint due to severe atrophy.

The speed of the metal disc has increased.

Shug had wanted to shoot with the Hound Fangs immediately, but the magic condensed in the beast's body seemed to be conscious, and it began to move constantly, trying to hide itself in a position where it could avoid the shot, which forced Shug to put down his pistol.

Before he had time to think about it, Shug immediately poured a large amount of mana into the magic page with "Merlinle and the Wall of Flames" engraved on it.

A few seconds later, another valley-level magic took effect, and as the mage's hand advanced, the magic page fell lightly towards the still shrinking "mountain of meat", so that with the falling magic page as the center, the towering wall of magic flames was shaped, and it directly covered the huge figure of the giant beast, and the bright fire illuminated the entire deep pit, and also illuminated the pale bone piles that had settled here.

The pungent smell began to spread rapidly as the temperature rose, and Xiuge's gaze remained fixed on the deepest part of the flame.

The Raging Rat, which had previously been quiet by witnessing the strange beast, was now agitated again, its body already resembling a small canine swelling again, and a series of screams emanating from its mouth, and anyone could feel its hostility.

Shuge saw that in the midst of the raging flames, the magic of "Merlinle and the Wall of Flames" was violently clashing and colliding with another force, no matter what it was, this magic was obviously continuing to cause damage to it, and the magic of the Wall of Flames was not a magic specifically designed to snipe at a specific target after all, its influence was relatively limited, so that force was still growing and active......

Finally, Shug heard a crisp popping sound, and then he saw something rush out of the flames, the raging flames seemed to have no way to stop the menacing figure, and the speed at which it erupted completely exceeded Shuge's expectations.

Luckily, he had been on guard all along, so with his instinctive reaction, he immediately allowed himself to completely enter the foggy state of the messenger in the mirror, and almost instantly, the huge shadow stepped directly in front of Xiuge on the flames, and then crashed through his atomized body on the spot.

Even though Xiuge didn't have an entity at the moment, he still felt a violent impact, and the magic attached to the shadow caused serious interference to his atomized body, almost causing Xiuge to fall back into a physical state.

Two Caljon touches swept with his thoughts, and the blade-like arthrops cut two furrows through the thick pile of bones, but the shadow that "emerged" from the behemoth's body was superior in speed, and before the black tentacles could hit the end, it had already pulled away.

What surprised Xiuge even more was that at the moment when the shadow swirled, it swept directly through the middle of its two Calon touches with something, and the hard keratin covered by the black tentacles was actually broken by it on the spot, and the two tentacles were directly cut off.

A large number of Calon Touches were summoned by Shuge, but before they could build a defensive line, the shadow struck again and forcibly passed through Xiuge's atomized body.

This time, Xiuge directly broke away from the state of the messenger in the mirror, and his body staggered twice according to the terrifying impact, and he barely stood firm with the support of Karon's touch.

"What the hell?"

Shug cursed, and several black tentacles immediately turned forward, just as they had done in the dream shelter against the attacks of the court hounds, and they quickly staggered, their sharp limbs all pointing outward, forming a black shield that could inflict fatal damage on the collider.

He originally wanted to use these sharp arthropods to force the enemy away, but the other party seemed to not see these threats at all, and actually directly collided with it, accompanied by the sound of sharp blades entering the body, the shield built by tough tentacles was deformed on the spot, and the exaggerated power was transmitted to Xiuge who was hiding behind, he only felt like he had been hit by a pendulum, and the whole person was knocked out on the spot, and fell heavily into the broken bones.

The ferocious impact blackened Shuge's eyes, and he could barely breathe normally.

The screeching of the Rat rang out, but Shug had no way of seeing what was going on, only that the magical connection between Snick and himself was beginning to fluctuate violently—it was clearly wrestling with the thing.

The metal disc that symbolizes the magic and mental stability of Shuge is still in continuous operation, and with the help of the magic, Shuge quickly emerges from that drowsy state and struggles to get up from the ground.

There was pain in the arms, back, and thighs, wounds from sharp bone chips and bone spurs on the ground.

Shug coughed vigorously twice, exhaling the exhaust breath that was holding in his chest, and then he got back to his feet with the help of the Touch of Calon, and at this time, he finally saw the true face of the thing that had been "born" from the body of the giant beast and launched a ferocious attack on him.

He was stunned, for it was clearly a huge rat that was as large as an ordinary vehicle, very similar to the three-tailed giant rat that Shuge had ridden in the rat swarm dream!

At this moment, the giant rat is entangled with Shug's Running Rat, both of them are also known for their speed, but the difference in size is extremely large, so it is difficult for Snicky to use his strength to hurt this terrible beast, and can only use his agility to delay as much time as possible.

Shug held a magic crystal in his hand, and as he frantically absorbed the magic from it, he re-summoned the power of the messenger in the mirror, trying to use his magical vision to observe his opponent, and soon he noticed something strange about the giant rat.

This is not the kind of three-tailed giant rat that once existed as a nezumi war beast.

It was mutilated, probably due to the fact that it had inherited a considerable number of blind rat properties, and the giant rat did not have eyes, and the tail behind it was not three, but only one and a half, and the other half was probably destroyed by the burning of the wall of flames when it was just born.

What really caught Xiuge's eye was the conspicuous features on his head.

It has horns, and they are not horns that exist in the state of magical illusions on Sniki's body, but hard horns that actually "grow" in the flesh, which seems to be very similar to the characteristics of Mother Earth.

"I'm afraid this guy can already be regarded as a crippled family of Mother Earth...... In terms of performance, its bloodline is at least purer than that of the Descendants of the Abyss. ”

By this time, Shuge's magic had been replenished to a certain extent, so he straightened up and grasped the Hound Fangs again with his right hand.

Although the giant rat did not possess vision, it obviously possessed extremely keen perception, and the moment Xiuge made this movement, it immediately shook off the wild rat that was entangled with it and turned in the direction of Xiuge.

But this time, Xiuge was ready.

The hand of the mage, who had been suspended nearby and had not been disbanded, had already quietly arrived in front of Xiuge, and with the injection of magic power, the large-scale spiritual shock magic "Resonance Dance" that Wei Lin marked "I don't distinguish between friend and foe" floated down.

Facing the giant rat that was rushing to a halt, Xiuge gritted his teeth and forced himself into the atomized state of the messenger in the mirror again.

The ferocious collision with the power of the Earth Mother God came again, and under Xiuge's best efforts to dodge, the giant rat did not pass directly through his mist body like the previous two times, but grazed half of his body, and after barely withstanding this impact, Xiuge immediately returned to the physical state, and at this moment, an invisible spiritual wave swept out from the bursting pages, enveloping a radius of more than ten meters!

Just being mentally prepared could not alleviate the damage caused by this mental shock magic, and at the moment when the "Resonance Dance" hit him, Xiuge only felt as if his head was forcibly stuffed into a huge speaker, and in this sound, dozens or hundreds of noisy dance songs were playing at the same time at the highest volume, and the chaotic sound slammed into his mental world like a hammer, causing him to fall into a momentary state of distraction.

Fortunately, in this regard, the resistance provided by metal discs can always be trusted.

This valley-level magic could not break through this solid front, so after a short period of dizziness and nausea, Xiuge's consciousness regained his clarity, he gritted his teeth and raised his hand, reluctantly aimed the tooth of the hound at the general direction of the giant rat, pulled the trigger hard, and fired the last wolf tooth bullet that he had kept until now.

The "Dance of Resonance" also had an effect on the giant rat, which tumbled into a pile of bones under the influence of the mental shock, but it did not stop moving, but continued to struggle violently, like a fish that had accidentally fallen into hot water.

The Hound Fang's bullet successfully hit one of the giant rat's hind legs, and its limbs were disintegrated and devoured by the power of the Abyss in an instant.

Perhaps because of the strong desire to survive, or perhaps because of the intense stimulation caused by the pain caused by the bullet hit, the giant rat leaped into the air, forcibly avoiding the spreading power of the abyss, but immediately after, the figure of the hideous hound was already revealed.

At this moment, it was extremely excited, and it was obvious that compared to the previous rat guards and priests, such a giant rat was the real prey worthy of its hunting.

Along with the hounds, there was also the running rat Snikki, who was chasing after him, and now it was completely attracted by the power in the giant rat's body, if the blessings in the bodies of the priests and guards before were just desserts, then now this mutilated giant rat catalyzed by the residual power of most of the ancient altars is comparable to a delicious meal.

It covets that sheer blessing.

As a true clan with three tails and pure blood, it can't bear to be such a defective product that occupies so much power, it should belong to itself!

So, the Running Rat found the opportunity, and the moment the court hound successfully pounced on the giant rat, it showed its most flexible side, only to see it climb all the way up along the hound's slender body, and quickly jumped to the top of the giant rat's head, and the three tails flicked quickly, and wrapped itself around the horns on the target's head, forcibly immobilizing itself.

Then, it bared its fangs and gnawed hard at the door of the rat's head.
