The Record of Unusual Creatures

Chapter 381: Landslides and ground cracks

Views:

The entire Beinz parish is already devastated, and no one who comes here will be able to see its original appearance: the ground is cracked everywhere, the wilderness is covered with bottomless cracks and holes, and huge tentacles are covered with avenues and rocky beaches. Eighty percent of the various strongholds on the defense line have been turned into ruins. Watchtowers and sentry towers have either collapsed or been entangled by huge plant roots and eroded into weird combinations. It is daunting to look at. And outside of these last strongholds, the ground is covered with twisted and terrifying wreckage of horror beasts, and the dirty blood and poisonous gas have turned these places into restricted areas for life.

On the other side of this already fragmented line of defense, the entire forest is gradually rising!

Loud noises resembling thunder and roaring continued to be heard from the Twisted Forest, as if ten thousand abyss behemoths were rushing out from the open nightmare door of the earth, and the sound of rock formations cracking and the underground world collapsing even shattered the sky The sky of the entire Beinz Parish began to be covered with trivial scaly clouds, the earth trembled violently, and the remaining buildings in the town creaked under the shroud of the last bit of magical brilliance, and they were about to collapse. Looking at the direction of the twisted woodland from the heights of the town, one can see that the middle part of the forest is rapidly rising, just like a mountain rising from the flat ground, which is incredible and frightening.

The vortex in the center of the Beinz Blood Lake paused for a moment, and then amidst an unprecedented loud noise, the surface of the entire Blood Lake dropped abruptly. The crimson blood set off a final wave of monstrous waves, and then sank at a speed visible to the naked eye: underground The collapse of the world caused the entire rock formation at the bottom of the Blood Lake to collapse.

Countless huge roots suddenly stood up from the falling lake, far bigger and twisted than the roots that harassed humans outside the past day and night. These roots crazily absorbed the blood lake water. If Hao Ren and the others could see Anyone who sees this scene will understand what's going on: the Twisting Woodlands are squeezing the last of their energy from the "Blood Tide"!

Amidst the shaking of the ground, the giant wolves at the entrance of the town suddenly stood up and roared in the direction of the twisted woodland, but this battle roar that was usually enough to shatter the rocks could only make the forest fall a few pieces leaf. The watchtower where Ophra was standing began to collapse, and she and Hao Ren jumped to the ground quickly: "Earlier than expected! Get back!"

Sure enough, an accident happened at the last moment: the "eldest son" woke up twelve hours earlier than the calculation of the data terminal!

But at this time, no one cared about the problem of calculation errors anymore. The elite soldiers who held the formation finally regained order after a moment of panic. They knew that only by obeying orders and retreating in an orderly manner could they escape. Groups of knights rushed out of town under the leadership of their respective commanders. They rushed towards the Dragon's Back Mountains along the pre-planned route, and Ophra personally led a team to break through with Hao Ren and the others.

"Notify the rector of Girton immediately! Abandon this place!" Ofra ordered loudly to an adjutant riding on the horse. The exhaustion brought about by the continuous fighting all day and night seemed to be forcibly dispelled at this moment, and she tried her best to show the same powerful momentum as before.

However, the adjutant only brought back a group of ordinary bishops and assistant bishops: "Your Excellency Marshal, the rector is unwilling to retreat!"

"What does he mean?" Ofra frowned.

The surrounding buildings are constantly collapsing, and the shaking of the ground is getting more and more violent, but she is riding a horse, and her whole body is as stable as a mountain. This momentum also calms down the adjutant who is in a panic: "Your Excellency, the rector, must share with the church." Live or die. He decided to die."

"Is this something that can be solved by martyrdom!" Hao Ren became anxious when he heard this. Facing a monster like the "eldest son", a mere person's heroism is useless at all! However, just as he was about to rush into the church and drag the stubborn old man out, a beam of light that was more magnificent than before suddenly lit up in the direction of the church, and then he saw that the whole church was wrapped in holy flames at that moment, turning into a The translucent phantom building and the powerful radiance of divine magic even make the tentacles that are constantly pouring outside the town retreat. Seeing this situation, the bearded man pulled Hao Ren back: "I can't save him, the rector has already merged with the magic circle."

The phantom building transformed by the church gradually extended, turning into a magnificent gate of light. This is the image of the "Gate of the Goddess" that countless believers of the Hui Yao Sect have drawn with their beliefs for thousands of years. In the Gate of Radiance, an old man in a white robe gradually emerged. Old and stooped. His face was wrinkled, and the old man seemed to be summoned by the goddess at any time. His eyes looked forward without focus, and he slightly raised his finger to point in the direction of the Longji Mountain Range.

A ray of light burst out from the top of the Gate of Glory, and followed the direction of the Knights' withdrawal to the gap in the middle of the Dragon's Back Mountain Range. Under the light, the tentacles and terrifying beasts around the avenue were burned to ashes in pieces.

Hao Ren suddenly remembered the words Gordon said before jumping off the Blood Lake Maelstrom: "I'm already very old..."

Ofra turned the horse's head and swung her long sword: "Everyone evacuate!"

The last team rushed out of Layton Town. What greeted them was the wilderness that was violently surging like a twisted purgatory!

The earth rippled like softened gel. Everything in sight was shaking, the rocks were collapsing, the city walls were being destroyed, and the town of Layton behind him was reduced to ruins in the blink of an eye, leaving only the radiance of divine magic that had transcended material boundaries still guiding everyone path of. Countless huge tentacles rushed out from both sides of the avenue and even from the feet of the people, and the black horror beasts rushed out of the Twisted Forest like a tide, but most of them were burned to ashes under the radiance of divine magic: this is the whole Countless believers in the Beinz Parish used the power accumulated over three thousand years, even if it was not enough to fight against the "Eldest Son" body, at least they could clear these things away!

"If it wasn't for the severance of the outside world..." Ofra looked at the terrifying beasts rushing out of the Twisted Forest, "At least three thousand years is enough for us to destroy these terrifying beasts! It's a pity that the world has always thought that they are just ordinary mutated monsters …no one knows that they are descended from the Third Son."

The giant wolves opened the way in front, followed by the knights, and Ophra and Hao Ren led the way at the end. The team was desperately advancing through landslides and landslides, and knights and mages flying in the low altitude were attacked by tentacles and fell behind. , the rest of the people can only try their best to abandon all distracting thoughts, try their best to ignore the loud noise in their ears, and move forward desperately towards the Longji Mountains.

The brilliance of the divine art cannot wipe out all the tentacles, those that are extraordinarily powerful can always last a little longer under the blaze.

Just as the team was about to reach the foot of the mountain, another thunderous roar suddenly came from the other side!

Elson, who was running at the front of the line, shouted: "The stone giant! The stone giant is here!"

Countless stone giants rolled down the mountain road, and even jumped directly from the nearest cliff. They were smashed to pieces after landing, but recovered in the blink of an eye, got up and continued to move forward. The scale of these stone giants is far from The stragglers that everyone has seen before are comparable. Thinking that these stone monsters didn't have the ability to identify friend and foe at all, and would only frantically attack all moving objects within the sensing range, the remaining soldiers of the Knights were suddenly enveloped in a burst of despair.

But in the end, these stone monsters ignored those humans, and they rushed towards the twisted woodland that was slowly turning into a huge "mountain" without hesitation!

It seems that there is still some kind of recognition mechanism in these stone monsters, which allows them to figure out where the most threatening enemy is.

Ofra was visibly relieved, and her voice pierced through the roaring surroundings: "Go on, don't look back!"

The team finally arrived at the mountain path of the Dragon's Back Mountain Range. This is a narrow mountain path. Stone giants will not pass through here. As long as they advance on this mountain path for a while, they will be out of the range of the roots of the Twisting Woodland. Vivienne looked back After taking a look, he quietly activated the magic circles he left in the underground cave.

The "core" organs of Twisted Woodland seem to have special functions. Although the entire forest is uplifting, those organs have not yet escaped from the caves that serve as heart containers.

Waves of faint red mist seemed to rise from the edge of the Twisted Forest. At this moment, Hao Ren and the others finally rushed into the depths of the mountains.

A thunderous roar came from behind, almost causing the rocks to collapse. This time it was a real roar. Hao Ren could almost sense the unprecedented anger and hatred of an ancient creature from the "thundering thunder".

Suddenly, he suddenly remembered the vicious sentence he heard from that giant brain before:

"You dregs!" (to be continued~^~)
