Chapter 411: The Real Demon Pig
"What do you mean?"
Melagalos heard the conversation between the two, and he didn't care about the strength of Zheng Shu, so he immediately squeezed in front of the two of them, stared at Zheng Shu and asked carefully.
"It's literal, the one you killed is not a demon pig at all, but just a family member who has been polluted by his power."
Zheng Shu had also seen Melaglos's behavior before, and he had a good initial impression of him, so he was happy to answer this guy's question.
"Those few people who lost their minds should have also been eroded by the power of the demon pig, probably because they came into contact with something polluted."
"Polluted stuff?"
Melagolos's face was solemn, and he immediately thought of the investigator who had fainted from his injuries just now, and it was his own uncles who went to pick up the investigator at the beginning, and maybe they had been polluted since that time.
"But how is it possible, such a big size is not a magic pig, is the size of the demon pig you are talking about bigger than the size of this pig?"
Melagolos still couldn't believe it, the pig they had hunted was already so large that even if it had fallen to the ground now, standing in front of this pig could make people feel oppressive.
"This pig is indeed big enough, but haven't you gathered information about the demon pig? It must have said how old he was, right? ”
"Yes, according to eyewitnesses, the Demon Pig is a monster as big as a mountain, and the ground rots everywhere it goes, and the river smells."
Atalanta, who was on the side, answered this question, which was the information mentioned by Onius, the king of Calydon, when he gathered the people, and everyone present knew it.
"Isn't this pig a 'monster like a mountain'?" Melaculus was a little curious.
"This size is a small dirt slope at best, and if you want to say that it is the size of a mountain, you must not look too low, you should raise your head and look for it." Zheng Shu patted the carcass of the wild boar next to him.
Knock knock knock......
Melagolos wanted to ask something more, but suddenly felt a slight tremor begin to appear on the ground.
"What?!"
The amplitude of the vibration was rapidly increasing, and soon some of the surrounding heroes were already a little unstable.
"Oops, looks like it's already spotted on my arrival."
"Who are you talking about?" Atalanta frowned, steasing her figure.
"Of course it's the demon pig you've been looking for!"
Thundered......
The sound of a landslide came from not far away, and Melagaros, who wanted to ask where the demon pig was, also closed his mouth because he had already discovered his target.
Wrong! It should be said that the target has not been hidden, but they did not expect that it was actually the body of a demon pig at all.
Another mountain of yellow dirt that looked like no greenery suddenly moved, and the thick rock shell cracked, causing a landslide-like disaster, revealing the dark skin inside.
As the "mountain range" slowly turned around, everyone finally saw the appearance of this magic pig clearly.
The demon pig still retains the appearance of a wild boar as a whole, with blood-red eyes spewing flames, and its broad back has a hard mane that looks like a tree.
The most bizarre thing is the pair of thick and sharp fangs of the demon pig, which should have been white or yellow, but have been eroded into black and blue by the strange power.
As the rocks that wrapped around the body peeled off, the corrupting aura on the demon pig's body also spread rapidly, and the trees on the surrounding mountains quickly decayed and withered.
In a short time, except for this area that was deliberately protected by Zheng Shu, all the surrounding mountains had completely turned into a dead land.
"That'...... That's ...... Demon pig? ”
Melagoros' voice became hoarse as he looked at the real monster that towered into the sky like a mountain.
And his performance is not bad, most of the other heroes have been frightened by the terrifying momentum of the demon pig and fell to the ground, and the and urine under the crotch flowed.
"How is that possible?!"
Atalanta's expression, which had always been indifferent, also became broken, and in the face of this monster whose size was far beyond human imagination, no one could face it calmly.
She raised the bow in her hand and pulled the bowstring full with all her might, as if she wanted to pour all her strength into the bow and launch it.
"Don't be affected by this guy's breath."
Zheng Shu raised his hand to stop her movements, and the protective stance of the Divine Armament was immediately retracted, but it cleared the invading corrosive power from the bodies of everyone present.
Atalanta's expression immediately returned to clarity, and she couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat after sensing her impulsive thoughts just now.
With her current strength, if she wanted to release the Heavenly Dome Bow with all her might, she would inevitably be drained of life force and die on the spot.
And the other heroes have also sobered up after the corrupt power in their minds has been cleared, and they no longer become so unbearable, although their lower bodies are a little messy because of incontinence, but at least they can act.
"Okay guys, if you can act, run quickly, I can't take care of you when the fight starts later."
Zheng Shu clapped his hands, drawing everyone's eyes to himself.
"In addition, if you can run faster, then inform Kaludong and deploy all the country's protective arrays, after all, with the size of this monster, the range that will be affected by the fight in the future should be not small."
Melagros was the first to come to his senses, and after he understood what Zheng Shu said, a look of horror appeared on his face.
"Thank you so much for your help!"
With a quick roar, Melagros immediately crawled out of the place, and made rapid progress in the direction of Kaludon, flashing multiple magical lights on his body in succession, just to make himself run faster.
And his uncles finally came to their senses at this time, and they didn't care about what they had just done, and immediately followed the fast-running Melagaros.
As they ran, they did not hesitate to apply all their magic to Melaglos, hoping that he would be able to gather all the strength of his men and return to Calydon as quickly as possible.
"Be careful, something is wrong with this guy."
Instead of following Zheng Shu's advice to leave immediately, Atalanta told him with a worried face.
Atalanta, who has lived with wild beasts since childhood, knows very well that although beasts are inferior to humans in terms of "intelligence", in order to survive, their "cunning" level is far beyond human imagination.
Setting traps to hunt is not only exclusive to humans, there are many animals that do the same, and the demon pig in front of you has obviously set a trap.
Judging by the power it was now exposed, if it really wandered aimlessly without concealment, the surrounding mountains would have been corrupted long ago.
But in fact, until just now, the surrounding mountains still looked very normal, and the demon pig also wrapped itself in a rock shell in order to hide itself.
With the size of the demon pig, this "delicate" thing is not something that can be covered casually, and the slightest movement may cause cracks in its camouflaged shell.
And it even used its own power to transform its dependents as bait on the surface to attract heroes who came to crusade.
Now that it is no longer disguised, it means that this demon pig has sensed that the "prey" with enough weight has fallen into its trap and is ready to start a war to "close the net".
As for who this prey was, it was naturally very clear, and Atalanta didn't think that he and the rabble just now could be worthy of the prey of this demon pig.
"Thanks for the reminder, I'll take notice."
Zheng Shu smiled, watching Atalanta keep stroking her own Sky Dome Bow to know her thoughts.
"Don't worry, although this guy is cunning, it's not certain who is the prey. Your task now is to get to the human gathering area as quickly as possible and let them evacuate quickly. ”
"Whoa, whoa!"
Suddenly, the cries of a bunch of wild boars came from the valley in the distance, and in Atalanta's stunned gaze, a large herd of wild boars about the size of the boar they had just killed appeared in view.
And judging from their already shiny black skin, the alienation of this group of wild boars is deeper than the wild boar they had just captured.
The largest of them is a wild boar, which is even more than 50 meters tall at the shoulder, and belongs to the level that even Ultraman has to look up when he comes.
Atalanta looked at the large herd of wild boars and instantly became vigilant, her right hand tightly grasped the Celestial Dome Bow, but before she could make any further moves, Zheng Shu had already raised her fist.
Rumble!!!
A terrifying red light cannon came out of Zheng Shu's hand, and the blazing heat even baked the ground in front of his body into magma, and the hot air currents of the high temperature gathered in his body into one storm after another.
The red light cannon with a diameter of more than ten meters and a length of several kilometers was easily wielded by Zheng Shu in his hand like a peerless long sword, and with just a sweep, the wild boar army in front of him that was enough to destroy an entire country disappeared, leaving only a residual smell of burnt in the air.
"Where are we?"
Zheng Shu shook his arm, dissipated the heat on his hand, turned his head as easily as if he had killed a fly, and continued to look at Atalanta and said:
"By the way, I remember that you were most proud of your leg strength, right? Do you want to make a bet? If you can run to Calydon before these people, then I'll give you a reward, how about it? ”
Atalanta stared blankly at the mountains in front of her that had completely turned into magma, and suddenly a relieved smile appeared on her face.
"Really, I'm stupid to worry about you as a monster. Okay, I've accepted your bet, and if I don't like the reward, I won't spare you! ”
"Haha, have you already started thinking about your reward before the results come out? Don't worry, you'll be satisfied. ”
Zheng Shu laughed, and stretched out his palm behind him without looking back.
Since his family had just been completely cleaned up, the demon pig became extremely angry, and stared at Zheng Shu with wide eyes, and a beam of black fire erupted from its eyes, covering the mountain range where Zheng Shu was.
The pillar of fire, which looked unusually slender for the size of the demon pig, was actually more than a few dozen meters in diameter.
Zheng Shu's open palm was just in front of the pillar of fire, and the pillar of fire, which looked extremely powerful, could not advance an inch in front of his palm, as if the space where the two were located was not on the same plane.
"What an exaggeration, okay, I won't bother you fighting, remember to prepare your rewards."
Seeing this, Atalanta knew that she had no room to meddle in this battle at all, waved her hand to Zheng Shu, and ran in the direction of Kaludong without hesitation.
"Huh! That's not slow. ”
Zheng Shu nodded with satisfaction as he looked at Atalanta's rapidly disappearing figure, and then, his originally relaxed expression quickly converged, and he turned his head to look at the demon pig behind him with a solemn face.
"Next, it's the two of us talking."
"Roaring ......"
Hearing Zheng Shu's words, the demon pig's mouth let out a thunderous roar, and his nearly 100-meter-wide face showed a humanized and vigilant performance.
"Oh? If you can understand what I'm saying, it seems that your IQ is much higher than I thought. ”
In ancient Greece in the age of the gods, there was no particularly direct relationship between strength and wisdom, and even if the power of some magical beasts was strong enough to suppress the gods, the wisdom may only be at the level of ordinary beasts.
So after seeing the expression on the face of this demon pig, Zheng Shu knew that the other party was definitely not an ordinary demonic beast, and he could have this level of intelligence, at least a divine beast-level existence.
However, according to the information provided by Artemis, although the demon pig cub she threw down at the beginning was relatively strong, its IQ was definitely only at the level of an ordinary beast.
"And...... The fluctuation of power in your body gives me a familiar feeling, and it makes me wonder how you came to mutate. ”
"Whew!!"
The Demon Pig didn't want to talk to Zheng Shu anymore, and a deafening roar came out of its mouth, and the shock wave from the roar alone lifted off a large area of rubble.
As soon as he lifted his legs, the surrounding area shook wildly as if it had triggered a violent earthquake, and half of the mountain wall where Zheng Shu was located collapsed violently, and countless broken boulders were wrapped in mud and sand and fell down on him.
With the size of the demon pig, even if it doesn't have this kind of corrupt power, just moving it is enough to be called a natural disaster.
But when this demon pig rushed over, the sense of oppression that seemed to collapse in the sky showed an excited smile on Zheng Shu's face.
Black scales emerged from the epidermis, and in an instant he had been transformed into a dragon.
Chest, back, limbs, brain...... Blue magic lines gradually appeared, indicating that the magic of strengthening the body had reached its limit.
Rumble!
The rock under Zheng Shu's feet shattered, and the whole person jumped thousands of meters high like a cannonball.
On his hands and arms, the black-red light spread out for more than ten meters, looking like two huge blades, accompanied by the flickering of black-red light, there was a terrifying coercion of the color change of heaven and earth in an instant.
Woo!
Because the speed was too fast, the air around Zheng Shu turned into a terrible and terrifying ghost cry as he moved.
When his body jumped to the highest point, a terrifying momentum erupted on Zheng Shu's body, surrounded by red qi waves of dozens of meters, like a meteorite falling from space.
Rumble!!!
The two sides collided without dodging, and under the terrible blow, a violent explosion occurred on the ground in a radius of several kilometers.
The annular blast wave that exploded was thousands of meters high, and all the rubble in its path was rolled into powder by the terrible force.
It wasn't until a few kilometers later that the terrifying annular shockwave exploded, turning into a violent wind that blew away the smoke and dust around it.
Countless pieces of rubble covered a range of more than ten kilometers like cannonballs, making a crackling sound when they fell to the ground, and once again raising billowing smoke with a terrifying sound.
In the smoke and dust in the sky, a red light cannon rose into the sky, and after penetrating the smoke and dust, it extended towards the sky with an almost unlimited limit, and then under Zheng Shu's control, the originally rapidly expanding light cannon quickly retracted and compressed into a pillar of light that was only a few tens of meters.
Airplanes......
Accompanied by the resonance of magic that shocked even the heavens and the earth, the pillar of light that had changed from red to dazzling white light fell instantly, and the terrifying power even completely blew away the smoke and dust in the center, revealing the scene inside.
After the blow, the pillar of light in Zheng Shu's hand quietly dissipated, and the red and black magic power on his body flowed, exuding a terrifying aura like the sea abyss all over his body.
In front of him, a high mountain that had been left had been razed to the ground, and cracks on the ground that were more than ten meters wide and several kilometers long stretched in all directions.
On the back of the demon pig towering like a mountain range, a scorch mark appeared that almost penetrated its entire body, and the depth of the wound reached more than ten meters, and the length was measured in kilometers.
If it was an ordinary creature, it would have died a long time ago if it had carried such an attack, but for the demon pig, a scar of this level was just a skin wound.
"Whoa, whoa!"
The intense pain stimulated the demon pig to become more and more irritable, and the corrupt aura emanating from its body became more and more intense, and it could even be seen with the naked eye.
Even the rocks had rotted and looked as if they had been weathered.
Zheng Shu frowned, the divine weapon completely spread out and covered his whole body, and he could even feel the subtle magical stimulation all over his body, which meant that the power intensity of this breath had reached the level of divine power.
"Even if you increase your strength, you have even gained the power of the gods, and now I am more and more curious about what made you like this."
Although the tone sounded quite relaxed, Zheng Shu's face was extremely solemn, he was able to transform a beast without wisdom into a god, even Zeus did not have such power, if you want to say that the person behind the scenes is Tiamat, the mother god of creation, he believes it.
