Chapter 600: An Amazing Scene
What's coming?
Before Roland could say anything, the ground under his feet suddenly arched upward, and then it was torn apart, and the entire black stone tower was lifted up in an instant! I saw a gray giant beast rush out of the ground, open its bloody mouth, and try to completely envelop the bottom of the stone tower, and the slime on the skin splashed everywhere.

Since Asha's ability can only retrace the scene, not the sound, Roland is like watching a silent movie, but the extremely realistic scene still makes him feel a strong shock, as for the witches who watched it for the first time, it is not much better, everyone let out an exclamation, covered their mouths and took a few steps back, and the ashes even reflexively drew their swords in front of Tilly.
However, there is more than one frightening monster.
There was also a tentacle monster hidden under the black stone tower, its dark body was almost completely embedded in the tower, and at first glance it looked like countless feet growing from the bottom of the stone tower, but the dark red light reflected by the scales indicated that it was a living thing.
The Tentacle Monster was about half the size of a castle, but it was still insignificant to a toucan large enough to devour a tower. In order not to be swallowed, it wielded its tentacles and propped it between the upper and lower jaws of the beast, and at the same time spewed out bursts of blood mist from under the scales, and the traces of corrosion were clearly visible from the beast's body - it was obvious that this dense and almost black mist could damage it.
However, compared to its huge size, the blood mist corrosion alone could not stop the toucan from swallowing, and as the stone tower was lifted into the air little by little, the tentacle monster was finally unable to support it anymore, and was crushed by the huge weight of the tower, falling into the monster's belly. Then the Blackstone Tower slowly slid down until it was completely submerged in the Giant Mouth. At the end of the video, Roland sees the devil covered in eyeballs, seemingly indifferent to the monster that is attacking the camp, lying motionless on the top of the tower, also swallowed by the group.
At this end, in an instant, the red mist and the giant beast disappeared, and the scene returned to calm, leaving only a huge pit, telling everyone that the scene just now was not an illusion.
Roland sighed, he was convinced that he was right not to call the soldiers of the First Army to watch, and even he felt his heart pound as he watched the incident, and even after it was over, there was still a trace of lingering palpitations.
"It's ...... The worm monster that engulfed Miss Agatha's laboratory?" It took a long time for Tilly to break the silence, "Why did it attack the Devil's camp?"
"Maybe we were all wrong, maybe it's not a hybrid beast enslaved by the devil, at least not controlled by the devil behind the snowy mountain......" Roland looked at Agatha, "what do you think?"
"I agree with that," Agatha nodded, apparently having thought about it for a long time, "not to mention that there was no record of this beast during the two wars of the Divine Will, and if the Devil really had the power to drive them, we wouldn't have lasted that long. As long as the enemy sent several toucans carrying high-level devils into the city from underground during the siege, Tachira would have been reduced to ruins long ago. β
"If it's not the devil, then who's controlling it?" Tilly frowned, "and the group of transparent praying mantis that Miss Nightingale found, it's clear that the actions of these beasts were planned. β
"Can't they do it because they want to," Nightingale said, "Hybrids aren't just any of the evil beasts, and judging by the Evil Moon's performance, they already have the basic ability to think, and if they live long enough, they may be smarter than us." β
This sentence made everyone laugh, and the solemn atmosphere of the scene suddenly dissipated a lot, obviously no one really thought so, after all, a group of monsters who drank blood and arched in the mud would be smarter than humans baking bread and wearing woven clothes, this kind of thing is too unbelievable.
Only Roland didn't say a word, he looked at the bottom of the deep pit, and his mind was churning.
Are humans the smartest species?
He didn't even dare to think so, especially in this completely alien world. When the living environment and living needs are very different, the characteristics of intelligent beings may be completely different. Evil beasts, for example, certainly don't think silk and bread are good things.
"Why doesn't the Beholder react to the raid?" Andrea asked, puzzled, "doesn't it mean that if it is watched, the entire camp will be awakened?"
"Because it is not seen by anyone," Agatha explained, "the Eye Demon will only see us when we see the Eye Demon, and yet the Toucanβit has no eyes at all. It has nothing but a big mouth. β
"Because it doesn't need eyes," Roland began, "if you live underground all year round, the eyes are of little use, like earthworms, and they don't need to evolve special light-sensing organs to guide them." β
"Evolution...... What?" Tilly wondered.
"Lightning, like the eyes, some animal skins can do that," he didn't explain too much, but crouched down and pointed to the depths of the cave, "Lightning, do you want to go down and have a look?"
The little girl nodded immediately.
"It's too dangerous," Ash stopped, "we have no idea what's hidden underneath. β
"You don't have to go deep into the tunnels, just look at the direction in which the beast is moving," Roland said, "and the nightingale will monitor the mana reaction from above, and there will be no danger." β
"Eh, why don't you follow the hole in the ground to catch it?" Lightning pouted.
"This time it will be spared, after all, it is the devil who swallows, not Agatha," he told repeatedly, "and come out and report it as soon as you find the direction of the passage, understand?"
"I see," Lightning pulled out the portable torch from his backpack, lit it, and flew headlong into the pit.
"The entrance to the cave is here!" After a few breaths, the sound of lightning came from the magic stone, "Do you see the fire?"
Depending on where the torch was swinging, Nightingale quickly set the direction of the underground passage, "No problem, you can come up." β
Looking at the nightingale standing southeast of the pit, and the towering snow-capped mountains behind her, Roland's brow furrowed even deeper.
More than one person at the scene thought of this.
"Looks like we guessed wrong," Tilly shrugged, "The worm beast we encountered in the Hidden Forest wasn't headed to the Devil's Camp, but to this snowy mountain?"
"It seems so," he said, looking up to see the peaks in the mist, the white snow shining in the sunlight, "it seems that we need to take a good look at the highest mountain in the West." β
