Chapter 391: Headless Giant
The giant beast that was dragged into the inside of the pyramid was obviously not a little girl who was unable to resist, and the demon hunters could feel the vibrations transmitted from inside the pyramid outside the ruins.
Whatever was inside that dragged that disgusting beast inside, it was a big thing that was evenly matched or even more powerful.
Xu Yichen could see that the black strip could easily shoot through the walls of the pyramid from the inside under the crazy counterattack of the giant beast.
In a matter of seconds, the entire building had more than a dozen arm-thick holes, and then, suddenly, there was silence inside.
It was time to withdraw, and while nothing else had noticed him yet, the demon hunter's instincts warned.
However, Xu Yichen resisted the urge to turn his head and run away, he knew where he had encountered something inside the pyramid, and the smell felt somewhat familiar to him.
It was the first time he had faced his old rival from Chaos, the taste of Nurgle.
Whatever it was in the pyramid was definitely inseparable from the Chaos Worshippers who summoned Nurgle Gardens through the cracks in the Void in Antony Harbour.
The blood in his body still flows with the blessing of the 'Loving Father' - the [Lower Regeneration] talent.
The Demon Hunter has been thinking about when he will be able to advance this very useful talent.
As the tremors and sounds inside the pyramid quieted down, silence returned to the ruins, except for an unsettling chewing sound coming from that direction.
Xu Yichen deduced from that huge palm that the monster inside the pyramid would be a giant with a height of more than six meters if it was in human form.
But considering the appearance of the Chaos Demons who have always played their cards out of routine, even if that giant hand is on a fart spirit, he is definitely not surprised.
As the sound of chewing grew quieter, a full, satisfying burp came out of the pyramid, long and deep.
With that came the smell of sewers, but this smell was not much of a problem compared to the previous behemoth.
The 'giant' inside the pyramid seemed to try to break free from its cage, and slammed into the clawed stone wall from the inside, causing stones to fly against the wall on the Demon Hunter's side.
"Boom!"
The pyramidal structure stubbornly withstood the attack, but seconds later, another powerful impact.
"Boom!"
This time, a conspicuous crack appeared on the stone wall, and through the crack Xu Yichen could see a black figure inside the pyramid, accumulating strength.
"Boom!"
With the final blow, an eight-meter-tall, charred, headless giant rushed out of the inside of the pyramid.
A huge mouth three meters wide had cracked on the fat belly, and the huge, sharp teeth were constantly licked by the scarlet tongue inside the mouth.
"Ahh Yes!! Yes! A roar of resentment came from the giant's mouth, as if celebrating that he was finally free, and the giant roared to the sky.
Huge sound waves drove the air like the wind through the hideouts of the demon hunters.
And on the other side of the forest, Legolas, who was hurrying on the road with the others, also encountered his own problems.
On the path they had traveled before, there was hardly any life in this corrupted forest except for the scattered creatures of Chaos.
But as they crossed that creek, everything changed.
The first to notice something was wrong with the Druid Gast, who looked at the insects that were quickly fleeing under his feet, and leaned down to observe them carefully for a while.
Despite their strange shapes and malicious looks, as children of nature, Master Gast understands the concept of the biosphere.
These bugs are the bottom layer of the biosphere, and their appearance proves that a new natural environment has taken root here.
For the druids, this couldn't have been worse, and even if they were lucky enough to drive the Chaos Fragments back into their own ugly world, the natural environment wouldn't have been restored to its original state in hundreds of years.
And in the past few hundred years, I am afraid that this will become a high-risk area for the threat of chaos, just like Gast's hometown, they have never been able to reclaim that land.
Sure enough, after a few hundred meters forward, irregularly shaped leaves gradually began to grow on the originally bare trunks, and weeds on the side of the road were as sharp as knife blades, taking the lead in expressing their unfriendliness to the intruders.
This was no longer the forest they were familiar with, and every meter they had to carve out a path with a weapon, and sometimes many obstacles had to be detoured.
On top of that, as soon as they walked through, the path they had just opened slowly disappeared behind them, making it infinitely less likely that the Demon Hunter would reunite with them.
Ephilar glanced at the direction behind her with some concern, she was not worried about the safety of the demon hunter at all, the silver-haired witch believed that if the other party was really the chosen one, she would definitely not fall here.
But she was a little worried that the Demon Hunter would not be able to fight her again, and that in this perilous Fallen Zone, the witch trusted only the Demon Hunter.
Cultivating as a combat nun since childhood, Ephilar could feel the aura of a veteran in that Seris.
Just like the great nuns who once led her to guard the temple convent, you can see in their eyes the momentum of seeing life and death as if it were unmistakable.
As for these teammates around you?
The silver-haired witch, who had maintained her psionic shield, pouted.
The elves were skilled, but they were good militiamen at best, and they might be good adventurers, but war was too far away for them.
As the former world hegemon, this race, favored by the will of the world, completely lost its sharp weapon after failing to compete with humans thousands of years ago.
As a race with a lot of spellcasters, they actually gathered most of the casters together in an attempt to transplant their World Tree to an island.
The elven mages intend to use this as a basis to build the island into the most perfect fortress with its own biosphere, and then make their people completely isolated from the world from now on, so as to avoid the pollution of chaos.
The Ark Project, in the eyes of the Witch Kings, is almost the funniest thing they have heard in the last few hundred years.
When Ephilar saw this passage in the memories of those clerical nuns, he couldn't believe that those pointed ears were so naïve that they could stay out of the catastrophe that swept the whole world.
You must know that even the witch kings, who have always appeared as villains, are preparing for this war with chaos.
