Chapter 10: The Brain Eater

Flashing lightning pierced the darkness and slammed into the walls with a deafening, dull sound.

For a moment, the rubble fell, and the darkness itself retreated as if in fear of the light, and a high-pitched scream exploded through the narrow passage.

But Jenn didn't care, he let the flash of lightning jump and disappear on the back of his hand, and then raised his right hand again. Soon, with Jenn's movements, the blazing flames moved forward along the ground. The scorching heat and flameburst once again illuminated the darkness in front of him.

Although it was only for a moment, Jenn's eyes keenly caught the afterimage of the tentacles that were rapidly retreating in front of the flames. He didn't say anything, just gestured in that direction. Soon, I saw Enoa fly forward, and the thunder whip in her hand swung forward mercilessly.

"Boom!!"

The dazzling white light and electric current emitted by the thunderbolt whip on the ceiling easily captured the monster lurking in the darkness once again. Jenn could see it shivering on the ceiling with electricity wrapped up and down. But the next moment, the black shadow monster broke free from the restraint of the electricity and ran towards the depths of the passage screaming again.

"We chase, it can't escape too far."

Jenn wasn't surprised by this, as most of the creatures in the underworld are resistant to magic, which is why very few real adventure teams from the surface dare to come here. The magic released by ordinary mages is basically no different from child's play in the eyes of the underground races, and those powerful mages will not run to this ghost place to die idle.

Don't look at Jenn, he can only use two spells at present, but with the bonus of his demon royal bloodline, as well as so many years of research on magic refinement, the power of these two spells themselves is comparable to the spells released by a high-level mage on the surface. But even so, it only paralyzed the black monster for a moment, which shows how strong the demonic resistance of the underground creatures is.

But Jenn doesn't care, he has almost endless magical support when he unfolds the dungeon system. The heart of the dungeon is not only the core of the entire system, but also provides magical support for Jenn at all times. If you want to use a numerical analogy, then Jenn only needs a maximum of 3o mana points for each spell he casts, and even if two spells are cast in turn, it is only 6o points.

The heart of the dungeon restores 1oo mana points per second for Jenn, and this value will increase as the level of the dungeon increases. This also means that even if Jenn keeps releasing these two spells, he will never encounter a situation where his magic power is exhausted.

Not to mention that during the years in the Demon Realm, Jenn has been immersed in the study of all kinds of knowledge of magic. He is well aware of his weaknesses, but he also knows how to make up for them. Limited by the limitations of "level", Jenn really has no way to unleash those powerful high-level spells.

But in the process, Jenn has mastered a unique skill that allows him to manipulate any spell he can cast at will, and make them act as he pleases. It's not like a normal mage, who doesn't care about a spell after it's released.

This is Jenn's greatest reliance, and it is also the source of confidence that he dares to stride in this dark cavern and approach the monster. In terms of the total number of spells alone, the spells released by Jenn at the moment were close to the sum of three or four high-level mages, but he still looked calm and relaxed.

Saturation attacks consume resources, but the effect is immediate.

In the beginning, the monster also tried to drain Jenn's spells in order to raid him when he was overwhelmed. But soon, it had to back down in the face of Jenn's constant spell bombardment.

While Jenn was not without his flaws, his loyal lieutenant filled the gaps. The thunderbolt whip she wielded blocked the part of the monster that could be exploited by the other party, and resolutely attacked the monster according to Jenn's will.

As an undead creature, Enoa didn't need to worry about whether she would be attacked or accused. This young lady, who seemed to be staying at home, was now more violent and brave than a drunken dwarf. She didn't care if she would be hurt or not, and for Enoa, as an adjutant, fulfilling her master's orders was the only thing she had to do.

Under the joint attack of Jenn and Enoa, the monster has become unbearable. The gray dwarves it manipulated were kept out by Verna and her men, and could not be summoned back. Although it also tried to escape from the pursuit of the two, the ubiquitous banshee was always able to find the other party and drive it out as soon as possible with the breath of life.

This game of cat and mouse lasted quite a short time. At first, the Dark Goblin hoped to be able to drain the enemy's body by relying on complex tunnels and escapes, but its plan was soon determined to be futile. As a necromancy, Enoa is tireless at all, while Jenn is a demon - even the weakest demon is far more physically than the strongest creatures in the dark realm.

This is one of the reasons why the demons are the supreme rulers of the Dark Regions.

"There's no escape from it."

As he forced the Dark Goblin to scream and run away again, Jenn sensed it. In fact, this monster consumes more body than it thinks. Not only did it have to dodge the attacks of Jenn and Enoa, but it also had to be vigilant to dodge the banshees that sprang out of the stone walls from time to time, leaving it wolf and tired.

In fact, if Jenn really wanted to destroy it, it wouldn't have to be so troublesome. All he needed to do was paralyze the other party and let his banshee guard extract the monster's soul. But Jenn didn't do that, because it was very clear during the mission.

"Want treasure? The monster hid it out of the sun's never-reachable reach, slaying the dark monster and getting the reward you 'deserve'. ”

The missions of the system cloth always have some weird tones, but that's also the charm of the game itself. Finding clues from this poetry-like description is also part of the test of the player's wit, and between the lines of each word there is likely to be a secret hidden that you can't imagine.

Sure enough, after Jenn and Enoa turned the corner of the tunnel again, they easily found the dark monster.

At this moment, the monster was crawling on the stone wall with its arms outstretched like a spider. Beside it were clusters of weed-like magic crystals that glowed softly, illuminating the depths of this dark tunnel. The light fungus on the ceiling creates a strange scenery that can only be found underground.

But the most striking thing is not the beautiful scenery, but the monster floating in the air.

It is about five meters tall, and a massive, exposed brain occupies the vast majority of the body. And in front of this "brain", there is a parrot-like beak. Ten tentacles hung down from its body, and it floated in the air like that, looking like a large jellyfish.

The monster was crawling obediently not far from it, grinning like a watchdog at the rash intruder.

It's a brain eater!

Upon seeing the monster, Jenn immediately knew its true identity. The Brain Eater is the second most annoying creature in the Dark Realms after the Psionics. It always hides silently in the dark, using its tentacles to catch lonely creatures, then sucking their brains, and then injecting a liquid into the empty brains of its hapless prey. You can make that food your most faithful slave.

Just like that pug.

Jenn was now certain that the hapless gray dwarves had opened the Chamber of Secrets and awakened the sleeping Brain Eater. And in the face of this big meal delivered to the door, the Brain Eater naturally accepted it unceremoniously. No wonder this mausoleum seems so simple, I'm afraid the whole mausoleum itself is a trap to lure greedy tomb robbers.

The creatures of the Dark Lands have a strong sense of territory, and it is a matter of course that anyone who trespasses on their territory will be put to death. Letting the other party go generously will only show their weakness and incompetence. Judging from the previous scene, those dreadclaw monsters should have been guarded by the original brain eater, so it was able to quietly destroy a whole group of heavily armed gray dwarves.

Originally, the Brain Eater also wanted to repeat the old trick on Vilna's body, but he didn't expect that there would be a powerful mage here, which led it to encounter the current embarrassing situation.

But for both sides, none of that really matters.

"Do it!"

Just glanced at the Brain Eater, and Jenn immediately gave a decisive order. I saw him make a few gestures in the swift void, and then the dazzling bright red light lit up again. Immediately after that, a ball of flame appeared in front of Jenn out of thin air, and with the sound of explosion, it turned into three fiery snakes, opened its bloody mouth and pounced on the Brain Eater.

For the Brain Eater, lightning and paralysis do not work in the slightest. Only the flames can bring enough threat to it.

In the face of Jenn's sudden attack, the Brain Eater was also surprised, but its reaction was not slow, and at the same time as the fire snake flew towards it, the Brain Eater opened its mouth and let out a sharp cry. Immediately after that, the air in front of it rippled, and a transparent barrier of force energy unfolded out of thin air, trying to block Jenn's attack.

But it wasn't as easy as the Brain Eater thought, and over the years in the Demon Realm, Jenn had learned a lot, he knew how to manipulate his magic, and he knew how to make them work in the right places. Therefore, after seeing the Brain Eater unleash the power barrier, Jenn remained calm, he just stared at the huge monster, and then opened the fingers of his right hand.

With Jenn's movements, the three whistling and flying fire snakes suddenly scattered as if they had received some kind of command. They bypassed the invisible barrier as if they were living creatures, and then slammed headlong into the massive body of the Brain Eater.

The flames soon began to burn violently, and the Brain Eater began to shake its tentacles with all its strength because of the intense pain, whipping the surrounding qiē. It opened its mouth and let out a deadly roar, and the invisible sound roared into a terrifying force like a spinning drill and lunged towards Jenn.

However, of course, Jenn would not stand there as a target, and as soon as the flames were released, he quickly shifted his body and left his original position, brushing shoulders with the sound waves released by the Brain Eater. At this moment, in order to protect his master, the dark monster screamed again and attacked Jenn. Unfortunately, before it could reach Jenn's side, it was whipped into a corner by Enoa, and was never able to stand up again.

The flames from the Demon Realm inflict considerable damage on the Brain Eater, but there is no way to completely destroy it. At this moment, the Brain Eater had already begun to struggle and retreat, and its tentacles slammed down into the depths of the ground. Then I saw the ground rise, and huge dreadclaw monsters appeared from it.

It seems that these are the real guards of the Brain Eater.

For Jenn, though, these dreadclaws were difficult to deal with. But he didn't bother to care about the enemy at all. They have been eaten by the Brain Eater and become its puppets, as long as they can destroy the Brain Eater, then these Dreadclaw monsters will be finished!

Thinking of this, Jenn stretched out his hand and pushed down his glasses, and then quickly gave the order through the guò spiritual link.

“――――――――!!”

And the next moment, with the cold screams of death, the translucent bodies of the banshees appeared out of thin air and pounced on the huge prey in front of them.
