Chapter 41: Are Monsters So Big?

Without even touching it, just making a move, Miles, who seemed to have no energy, easily twisted the limbs of the giant elephant.

The giant elephant that had lost its center of gravity fell to the ground, and the earth shook violently from the fall of the behemoth, but it was also the last time.

But the crowd didn't let the giant elephant go.

"Soul Siphon Seal!"

There was another lively and heroic chant, coming from Dat's voice.

Suddenly, one after another turquoise halos suddenly appeared beside the giant elephant, and layers of silk were binding the huge body.

Enough to suppress the power of restlessness, the giant elephant lost its initial irritability and gradually calmed down.

Wu was dumbfounded.

The first is the "mind-type" supermatter magic, and the second is the well-known "sealing".

Such supermaterial magic, as distinct from the strange magic of the six elements, is not called a "magister" in general.

The Inhuman who wields "supermaterial magic" - "The Chosen One".

At that moment, I'm afraid that only "novelty" can describe Wu's mood.

Tyre, on the other hand, behaved calmly, and seemed to be a daily routine for him.

"As you can see, the term 'professional' is not a verdict on a crime, but a general term. Generally refers to a person with unique special abilities, that is, people with professional abilities, and is collectively called the 'chosen one'. ”

"That's amazing...... It is completely impossible to understand with common sense. ”

"That's for sure."

"That is, to be present...... No, are all the criminals who follow me today the 'Chosen One'? ”

"Yes."

At the moment when the facts were revealed, Wu felt extremely shocked.

The source of the shock comes from the Kingdom's definition of this identity.

This does not seem to be in the style of his father, and is contrary to the "equality of human rights" he advocated.

If you are jealous because of your unique abilities, this kind of dirty definition will naturally arise.

The establishment of such deformed body divisions will only compress the living space of the Chosen in society.

So much so that the kingdom is reluctant to publish the criteria for determining "professional-level criminals", speculating that it is to hide the fact of such injustice.

But they are all magic-savvy people, so why should they be so afraid of the Chosen One?

While he was thinking about it, Miles made another move.

"Such a dangerous monster should not exist on this land."

An angry and godless threat emanated from the purple lips.

It appears that Miles intends to carry out further weeding and eradication of the incapacitated giant elephant.

He walked in the direction where the elephant had fallen, his hands raised, ready to reap the elephant's life.

"Wait a minute! Don't come near him yet! ”

Wu hurriedly stopped Miles with words, but it seemed to be too late.

Miles stared at the giant elephant with a blank face, like a killer of the victim on the verge of parting, watching the dying giant elephant with helpless eyes.

I feel sorry for the weakness of the other party.

The murderous Miles' intentions were obvious, and it was impossible for the giant elephant not to know about it.

But the giant elephant was surprisingly calm. The rotting eyes chose to stare at Miles calmly, and even the bulky body stopped struggling.

Is it to give up?

The thin hands kept flat up, ignoring Wuwu's stopping, and the second wave of elements was accumulated, and the killing machine could not be recovered-

- The change was beyond expectations.

There was no expected death, just debris of dust scattered around.

Derived from Miles' body.

Like shattered dust, fresh flesh silently turned to dust, and the dejected eyes seemed to be still in front of everyone—but eventually they still dissipated into the air.

The dust was colorless and odorless, not even a speck of blood, and Miles disappeared as if it had evaporated in an instant.

"Uh——————!h Miles! ”

Wu exclaimed, frightened and reluctant.

Finally no longer calm - the criminals are beginning to realize that the giant elephant is not as simple as they imagined.

In response to the strength of the giant elephant, the crowd chose to flee.

Lost another companion - just two words of conversation, and then died?

Wu felt seriously uncomfortable with the sudden change.

But no amount of reluctance can change the facts.

"Run! Before the giant elephant has regained its mobility! ”

"Yes!"

Wu began to drive his trembling feet, running forward with all his might, and the hands that helped the man were even more gripping the man's buttocks.

With all the strength he had left, he struggled to run away from the strange giant elephant.

Fortunately, it seems that because of the "soul sucking seal", the giant elephant did not set off to chase and kill Wu and the others.

As he fled, Wu's eyes curiously looked at the vanishing behemoth again.

At that moment, Wu was shocked—he saw it exactly.

The giant elephant was crying, its rotting eyes staining with bright red blood, and its lonely eyes seemed to be staring—

- Yourself?

The origin of the giant elephant could not be confirmed, but there was no need.

After all, being able to leave this forest alive now is much more important than reaching Jiuhu Mountain.

The crowd ran for five minutes, and when they saw that the giant elephant did not chase after them, they also put down the big stone in their hearts.

The image of the giant elephant crying is still fresh in my memory, and the panting Wu clung to the still unconscious man, and fell into deep thought.

It should have been the link for the rest of the life after the catastrophe -

But the ensuing crisis did not give any breathing room.

There was another series of eerie scurrying noises—it sounded like some kind of long creature crawling through the scattered piles of leaves.

The criminals who had not yet slackened stepped forward one after another to protect Wu's safety with their own bodies.

This scene was something Wu never expected - while encountering danger, these people chose to draw their swords to help.

Soon, the sound of swaying suddenly disappeared. However, the crowd has not yet captured the source of the sound.

Wu is very uneasy about this hidden crisis.

"What to do? Looking for a sound source separately? ”

"With all due respect, going separate will not dissipate the crisis. What should be done now should be to gather in a group and not produce the slightest flaw. ”

"That's right, the voice...... It's possible...... It's lurking somewhere...... Monsters, we ...... Targeted. ”

"But I didn't see anything?"

"Please don't panic, prince! They still seem to be looking at us, so please don't let out a sense of relaxation. ”

"Slackness...... Do you mean farting? ”

"......? Hahahaha————! ”

It can be heard that Wu is not intentionally funny. The blunt statement directly amused Date.

But what I never expected was that death was in an instant-

A black shadow galloped past everyone's eyes, seemingly rushing out of the ground.

That is, the moment of lightning - a muffled sound of "woo" came into everyone's ears.

Then the shadow just vanished, and there was not even a trace of it.

"What's that!?"

"I don't know! I didn't see anything! ”

"Look on the left side to see if there are any foreign objects! Check it out on the right side too! ”

"There's nothing on the left!"

"The right side is also ...... Wait a minute! How do you feel like there's one less person? ”

One of the criminals' questions brought everyone back to their senses - the person who disappeared was none other than Dat.

Apparently, an unintentional joke exposed Dat's flaws and he was eventually captured.

Tyre looked around intently, while simply regrouping his thoughts with words.

"Don't panic! Stay defensive! Look around, listen to all directions! Your Excellency, please don't speak for a while. ”

"Uh——! Embrace...... I'm sorry. ”

Dieter...... I'm sorry for you.

I can't even feel the slightest murderous aura, and even if I make a shot, I can perfectly hide my whereabouts and breath.

All kinds of incredible phenomena made everyone conclude that this was definitely not an ordinary monster.

It was silent for ten seconds—it felt like ten hours.

In the solemn confrontation, the other party hidden in the shadows seemed to be impatient.

"...... that?"

A trembling tone disrupted everyone's thoughts, and one of the criminals stared blankly ahead.

A hundred-meter-long centipede, swaying thousands of pairs of feet, slowly crawled towards everyone.

In the pile of scurrying leaves, two blood-red eyes were staring at Wu and the others.

The body of the centipede is covered with dark green iron sheet, which is shiny and hard. The pair of poisonous jaws like big scissors flowed with some kind of bright red liquid—

It was Dyte's blood.

This terrifying appearance really frightened everyone, and the disgusting foot crawled densely interacting, crawling towards everyone with bad intentions.

"Isn't this a centipede? Looks disgusting, isn't it? ”

"That's an exaggeration——! That's as long as a dragon, isn't it? ”

"It's not just the looks...... Full body ...... It's all bad...... Murderous. ”

The skilled criminals all evaluated this centipede with admiration and fear.

Obviously, there is some connection between this centipede and the giant elephant just now.

Everyone slowly retreated, and the centipede crawled towards Wu and the others defenselessly.

It's simply a provocation.

"Looks down on us."

Thiel said.

"What to do? The road ahead has been blocked by this centipede! ”

"If you run away the way you came now, you're sure you'll encounter that disgusting giant elephant again."

"It seems...... Bound...... The First World War. ”

"As it stands, yes."

And so an agreement was reached - and the crowd did not retreat.

At this time, the centipede also stopped.

The two sides looked at each other, testing each other's intentions with their eyes.

After a few seconds of peaceful staring, Levinuki made the first move.

"Elemental Amplification - 'Really. Wind Cut'! ”

The cold whistled by—the blade mimicked by the wind elemental slashed precisely at the centipede's slender body.

The moment it hits, it causes a big explosion, and the power is not ordinary wind cut.

Thanks to the "enhanced" supermatter magic, this wind shear can reach near-phantom strength.

Not to mention the magic shield soldiers with super high defense skills, they may not even be able to eat this blow safely with a high-level monster with a strong physique.

But wouldn't it be too boring to end like this?

After the smoke cleared, it was a familiar figure who met everyone again.

The centipede was unscathed.

"Hey, hey, hey...... Don't tell me it's true. ”

"It seems that his defense against elemental magic is very strong."

"In that case—try it for me!"

Thiel stepped forward, waving his hands heavily—

"Immortal Gu!"

Suddenly, a large amount of purple smoke filled the centipede's side, and the ghost lingered.

"Everyone, please hold your mouth and nose!"

"Uh——! Good! ”

And they did.

The centipede's figure quickly disappeared into the purple smoke, and Thiel smirked.

"This is a 'poisonous magic' that can instantly numb all nerves, just a little touch is enough to attack, even the tightest armor can't stop the penetration of poisonous gas!"

"So powerful?"

"That's ......"

Before Tyre could finish boasting, the poisonous gas dissipated instantly.

It didn't dissipate naturally, it was more like it was deliberately blown away, and the poisonous gas that had been permeating the centipede disappeared in an instant.

What caught my eye was a centipede that was still unusual.

The blood-red eyes were still staring at Wu and the others, and the long terrifying body was still squirming.

It can be seen that the "Immortal Gu" did not have any effect on the centipede.

Thiel was shocked.

"How is that possible!?"

"Him...... Still close to us? ”

"Damn! Dat is dead, and no one can cast the 'Seal', which is really hard to do! ”

"Since...... So...... Please... Small one! ”

Kim introduced himself in such a timid tone.

The tall man walked straight towards the centipede, as if he wanted to fight the centipede alone.

"What do you want to do!? Come back soon——————! ”

Wu didn't want to let another partner die in front of his eyes, it was a heart-rending roar.

But it can't save the determination of the gold.

"Eternal Web!"

Kim shouted.

Suddenly, with gold as the central point, a transparent barrier was instantly opened, surrounding the centipede and gold.

In an instant, the figure of Jin and the centipede disappeared.

It was as if the world had suddenly evaporated and disappeared in front of everyone's eyes without warning.

"Kim? Where did he go? ”

Wu shouted the name of Jin everywhere, but the fat right palm grabbed Wu's left shoulder—it was Tyre.

"Give up, Kim is fighting the centipedes in the enchantment."

"What do you mean?"

"The 'Eternal Cobweb' just now belongs to a kind of enchantment magic, and the life of the caster is used as the maintenance time of the enchantment, and no matter how powerful the attack is, it will not be able to break through the enchantment web."

"You mean ......?"

"That's right, the only way to break through the 'Eternal Web' is for the caster to die. He did this to buy us time to escape. ”

"How could it be ......?"

Wu almost collapsed.

It's only been together for less than half a day, why did they sacrifice their lives on their own initiative just to protect me?

How "selfish" is it to be?

"Your Excellency! Don't live up to Kim's kindness, please run! ”

“……”

Wu didn't want to run away, but now he had no choice.

Looking at the position where Jin used to stand, now in that empty place, there are people fighting for themselves.

"Let's go...... Let's do it! ”

Skimming his nostalgic gaze, Wu couldn't bear to run forward - but couldn't move.

It was as if the muscles were frozen and they couldn't move at all.

"What's going on?"

"Why did the body stop?"

Tyre, who was also unable to move, and Lyric and Lynuki were puzzled.

The three of them kept running in this posture and froze in place.

Soon, the answer appeared in front of everyone.

The pitch-black figure slowly stepped out of the bushes in front of him—it was a rhinoceros covered in black armor.

It wasn't supposed to be combat iron armor, maybe it was the skin of the rhinoceros itself.

But from a distance, you can see that its hardness is amazing.

In addition, this is not the only "guest" who came one after another.

"That's a rhinoceros...... Owl? ”

Wu stared blankly at the two figures in front of him.

On the body of the pitch-black rhinoceros, there stood a slim figure - an owl.

Covered in flowing fluff, it is still tightly wrapped in the hot climate, and it is hot to see.

The earthy gray fluff has a dull color, which is not pretty, but it is a mysterious color.

Maybe it's a genetic problem, each fluff has a pattern similar to an eye, and the heavy fluff looks like a multi-eyed monster from a distance.

After watching it for a long time, I can't help but feel a little chill flowing through my body.

The rhinoceros is about half the size of the giant elephant, while the owl is about half the size of the rhinoceros.

What's going on? Are all the monsters in this forest so big?

But now is not the time to praise this, how should we break through the defenses of these two monsters?

Let's not talk about whether these two monsters are hostile or not, we can't even move.

Whose magic is this? Rhinoceros? Owl? Or the centipede just now?

"Tyre, what do you think is going on?"

"Prince of Revenge, this is similar to the sealing technique used by Dat, which is a binding magic that can block human muscles."

"Sealing!? Can't it be cracked? ”

"Yes—but the caster who performed this sealing technique seems to be very skilled, and the little ones can feel that this is not an ordinary sealing technique."

"Could it be the monster in front of you?"

"Possibly."

An undeniable tone of despair came from Tyre's mouth.

has been driven into a dead end, and even wisdom cannot solve this kind of thing.

It should be said that with the current ability, he can't come up with a solution.

Monsters are strange creatures that can't communicate, and they can't guess their thoughts, and it is impossible to understand the thoughts of monsters based on human cognition alone.

So much so that it is difficult to crack the trap set by the monster.

"Why don't we do this—retract the hostility, and we try to make overtures to each other?"

Levichinus proposed.

"Good idea, that's a real idea."

"But with all due respect, what if the other party doesn't understand our kindness?"

"It's a different scenario - either way, we can't break through the other side's power, so it's better to choose the option with the best chance of survival."

"Since you've said so......"

Tyre nodded silently, disarming the poison gas that was about to be released.

Levikinu also interrupted his limbs, which had been strengthened by the amplification magic.

In order to show kindness, Wu closed his eyes and showed a gesture of letting the other party dispose of it.

But in fact, Wu was quite scared.

His forehead was covered with sweat, and his frozen body trembled slightly—a fear that even the sealing technique couldn't suppress.

In the dark, the perception of sound is particularly acute.

While his eyes were closed, Wu struggled to discern each other's movements with his ears.

The eyelids closed tighter and tighter, and unconsciously, even the lips were tightly closed.
