One night was not enough for Qin Hao to give an answer. Forming an alliance with the Huaguo Cultivation Academy was not a big deal. The senior officials in the country were probably eager to have strong foreign aid from the outside world. After all, in this current environment, many One friend is better than one more enemy, everyone gets what they need.
Hermes also knew enough not to get entangled in it. Perhaps, from the beginning, he felt that this matter would take a lot of time. After all, good things take their toll. The conversation between the two parties ended, and groups of teams that had temporarily gathered together early in the morning continued on the road again, exploring the unknown road ahead.
This time, the crisis is coming much faster than imagined!
This has to start with the monks who entered here before. These people were the first to enter the ancient battlefield. I don’t know who was unlucky enough to mess around and actually triggered the sealing barrier. Now it’s better. People inside can’t get out, and people outside can’t get out. No one can come in, they are completely isolated.
But here's the problem. They can't just wait at the edge of the barrier, so they have to continue drilling inside and try to find a way out.
Along the way, most of the monks who entered here early have lost their lives, but after all, the Pope, one of the four emperors, is here. Although he has suffered a lot, he still has the strength to fight, that is, here. In this case, they discovered the so-called "Holy Grail".
Even if most of the monks present are supported by organizational forces, they are not as powerful as the Pope. Who dares to fight if the Pope himself speaks? What's more, people keep saying that it is the Holy Grail, the Pope's lost treasure. Even though people are secretly slandering the Holy See, there are really many Holy Grails. There is another one in the Emperor's place, and now there is one here? However, we can only think about it calmly. Even if they know that this is just an excuse for the Pope, what can they do? The opponent is strong and has big fists, so they can't take anything they fancy.
However, the pope's troops never came back, and there was no news for several days. The group of monks outside couldn't hold it any longer. A group of people discussed it and decided to go in and take a look. Before they could do it, the earth suddenly began to tremble. The ground shook and the mountain exploded. The cave was shaken and a huge hole was opened, almost A canyon was torn apart.
Nearly half of the mountain was torn apart, and people saw corpses all over the canyon. It was the Pope who had entered the cave before. At the same time, there were a few Pope leaders who were heading toward where they were under the leadership of the Pope. Escape.
People were terrified. The Pope, one of the Four Emperors, was one of the most powerful beings known in the world. Why was he driven away in a panic? What kind of terrifying existence is hidden in this mountain? Even the Pope has no choice but to run away
There are not many strong men left in the Pope. No one knows what happened inside, but they know that the Pope is really finished this time. If Qin Hao broke into the Pope alone before and killed several members of the Inquisition. The chief referee and other masters have hurt the Pope's vitality, so this time the Pope has hurt the root. The Pope personally sits in charge. There are dozens of strong men, but now only a few are left. Even the Pope himself has been expelled. Once it came out, one could imagine what a terrifying thing it was there.
They didn't have much time to sigh. In the next second, they were also involved in danger.
As the mountain cracked and shook, the ground was twisted like an earthquake. The originally flat surface now looked like pimples on a person's face, with small hills rising up one after another.
Those hills do not seem to be simple. They are oval in shape. Although they are surrounded by soil, rocks and sand, they look like eggs made of mud. There seems to be some kind of life inside, and they are still shaking slightly. If To describe it in detail, it looks a bit like an egg about to hatch into a chick, as if something is about to break out of the shell.
It is normal and reasonable for eggs to hatch chicks, but what is this thing? Stone egg? Native egg? Is it possible that a beggar chicken can be hatched
However, the answer was ready to come out in the next second. The mountain bag, or the eggshell, cracked and was opened from the inside. A huge lizard with a head and a body of seven or eight meters crawled out of the ground. It let out bursts of roars and pounced on the human monk.
There are nearly a hundred of these lizards, with dark markings on their bodies. They look a bit like the Super Tyrannosaurus in the movie King Kong, but their forelimbs are not much more developed than those dinosaurs, and their general physical appearance is still not completely different from the lizard species. Same as enlarged version.
Regarding these big lizards, monks who are generally not high enough in cultivation really have nothing to do with them.
The skin is rough and the flesh is thick, and ordinary attacks are not strong enough to cause serious damage. However, the claws and teeth of this group of lizards are very sharp, and they seem to have an effect similar to that of destroying demons in the game. Except for those with extremely high cultivation levels, The body-protecting energy, the ordinary monk's body-protecting energy cannot withstand heavy bites and blows, and becomes food in their mouths in just a few or two blows.
Qin Hao and his small group of people are still at the rear and don't know what happened ahead. If we insist on connecting the timeline, all of this should have happened exactly when the beast tide appeared the day before. To be more specific, The trigger for the beasts' rampage was the collapse of the mountain and the appearance of these large lizards.
Obviously, beasts are far more aware of approaching crises than humans. This is nature, or the hierarchical oppression of the food chain.
"Let's take a rest before setting off."
I don’t know how long they have been walking, but as the strongest demigod among this group of people, he spoke. He was the strongest, and he could barely be regarded as the leader of Qin Hao’s makeshift team. He didn’t want to reveal his identity. Before, Qin Hao and the others had no objections.
Everyone should take care of their physiological needs, and eat and drink when they should. After a while, when they have almost rested, they are ready to start again.
only…
"Where's Royce? Where are all the people in their small team?"
The team of more than thirty people suddenly lost about ten people. As the leader, Stewart had a hard time not noticing.
One of them pointed in a direction and said, "Royce and the others said they wanted to make it easier."
"How long?"
"It's been twenty minutes."
Stewart frowned: "Does it take twenty minutes to relieve yourself? Do practitioners still suffer from constipation? You guys go call them, but you don't have that much time to waste here."
If there were only one or two people, Stewart would probably be too lazy to take care of him, so he would be left behind. But there were more than ten people, almost one-third of the entire team, and their strength was not weak. In the current environment, he was still I hope there will be more energy.
Qin Hao and the others are much more sensitive. They have already sensed that something is wrong. More than ten people had a convenience and then disappeared. Even if they were constipated, it was impossible for more than ten people to be together, right? Either they were looking for a way out, or something unexpected happened.
As expected, the few people sent out to call for people never came back. Stewart also realized that something was wrong and decided not to wait any longer. He specifically chose the opposite direction and set off. That direction was like a black hole that had swallowed up more than a dozen people. There were nearly twenty people, and even Stewart didn't dare to get closer.
However, the danger did not let them go.
A bloody corpse was thrown into the temporary resting camp. It was one of the few people sent to look for people just now. This corpse was not complete, only half of the body was missing, and it was completely missing from the waist down. One of its arms was broken. However, the abdominal cavity was also cut open, and blood from various organs was everywhere. Fortunately, the face had not been torn into pieces, so we could barely tell who it was.
"Roar!!!"
Roaring sounds resounded in the mountains and forests, and the trees in front of everyone were broken by brute force. A large lizard leaped high, and its amazing jumping power drove its huge body towards everyone. Its speed was not affected at all, it was very fast, and it opened its It has a huge mouth and sharp claws just scratching and biting it.
Stewart is worthy of being a strong man in the demigod realm. His reaction ability should be the fastest among the others except Qin Hao who is hiding his identity. He dodges without any pause and launches a counterattack at the same time.
boom!
A huge sword with similar fighting energy struck the lizard's head heavily, splashing green and smelly blood that was half a man tall. However, this sword did not cut open the big lizard's head as expected, but only scratched the head. After opening the flesh, the blade got stuck. Thanks to the thickness of the giant sword, and the strength and energy of the blow, the big lizard was slapped to the ground. Its head came into close contact with the ground, although it was not killed. The other party, but at least bought time for the others to react.
Otherwise, with the size and speed of this big lizard, it would have jumped into the crowd, and it would have just caught them off guard. At least several people would have died in that moment.
"Roar!!!"
The injured lizard showed its ferocity. Stimulated by the pain, before the dizziness from being knocked to the ground faded away, it swung its sharp claws towards Stewart.
The giant sword was stuck on the big lizard's head, and Stewart couldn't pull it out for a while. He and the big lizard pulled the swords out of their arms, and they were wrestling with each other. They couldn't get any space at all, so they could only resist this force. one strike.
He stomped the ground heavily with his feet, and the fighting energy all over his body exploded, forming a defensive energy field with a radius of about half a meter.
However, Stewart was inexperienced in fighting this kind of big lizard for the first time. He didn't know that this monster also had a demon-breaking effect similar to that in the game. The energy field did not block the big lizard's claws.
Of course, this is just to break the demon, not to ignore the defense and fail to block it, but it also affects the speed of the big lizard's claw attack.
Stewart was also taken aback. He didn't dare to resist anymore, but he was reluctant to give up the giant sword in his hand. After all, he couldn't kill this monster with a giant sword. How could he fight with just his fists without weapons
In a thrilling moment, Stewart jumped up and avoided the attack of the giant lizard. At the same time, his body rolled several times in mid-air and landed on the back of the giant lizard. His hands were still firmly grasping the hilt of the giant sword.
This time, he switched from slashing to stabbing, stabbing down with all his strength according to the wound he had made before, and almost half of the sword blade was inserted into the big lizard's head. (To be continued)
