So hot …
Why is it so hot?
In his line of sight, the world was covered in a layer of blood-like color. It was as if it had been soaked in blood, and it was as if it had been burned by karmic fire. What entered his chest was not air, but boiling flames. Gradually, some silhouettes appeared on the horizon. Low defensive walls, well-proportioned buildings, and towering towers … It was a city.
Sur City!
This name suddenly flashed through his mind. It was like a bolt of lightning, splitting open the chaotic world.
Sur City … Sur City, I remember it. Why should I remember it?
Sur … Revenge? Yes, revenge! I want to destroy it, I want to take revenge. But whose vengeance should he avenge?
It hurts, my head hurts. Sur City! Revenge! Destruction!!
In the empty wilderness, a beast-like roar came from within. The roar was filled with anger, and it buzzed in the sky above the entire city. On the city's defensive wall, a soldier was lying on the wall. He stretched out his head and pointed at the wasteland, shouting, "There, there's something there!"
The night was bleak, and the lead clouds blocked the moonlight, causing the wilderness to be pitch black. However, one could vaguely see something moving in the darkness. That thing was even darker than the darkness!
The soldiers of the city guards ran up the wall with torches, but they still couldn't see anything. It wasn't until a little flame suddenly lit up in the darkness that the flame continued to grow, as if a fireball had risen out of thin air in the wilderness. With the help of the fire, the soldier finally saw it.
Although there was only a silhouette, the tall body could still be clearly seen even from afar. The most conservative estimate was that the creature under the night was at least six to seven meters tall!
It was a giant!
Unfortunately, there was no such thing as a tactical telescope in this world. Otherwise, the soldiers on the wall would have been able to see it. After crossing a long distance, behind the flames was a ten-meter-tall body covered in black scales. The ball of fire came from its chest. The giant's chest split open from the middle, and blazing flames shot out from its chest, as if there was a blazing sun hidden in its body.
Even though his face was also covered in black scales, he could vaguely distinguish Baku's appearance. However, at this moment, Baku was in almost two different forms of life from before. Now, he was like a demon, a true demon! On his scale-covered head, the outline of Sur City was reflected in his two bell-like yellow eyes. The scales on both ends of his temples gradually turned into curved horns covered with spiral stripes, and a thick black mane fluttered behind his head like a black flame.
Exoskeleton-Like biological armor grew on the shoulders, arms, and knees. Under the firelight, the biological armor flowed with a deathly gray luster. Some bright red lines spread from Baku's chest to other angles of his body. Within these lines, a dark red light flowed regularly, as if blood was galloping through his blood vessels.
Baku seemed to be enduring great pain. He let out a mournful howl, and the light on his chest grew brighter and brighter. In the end, a blazing stream of fire shot out. The thick and boiling fire broke through the air, and the recoil actually caused the giant-like Baku to take a few steps back. Due to the influence of the recoil, the angle of this straight shot was raised.
Under the darkness of the night, the bright stream of fire swung upwards. It swept through one of the defensive walls of Sur City and smashed into a row of bungalows in the city. As he walked up, he slanted past the left wing of the City Lord's Mansion, finally forming a continuous pillar of fire that almost stretched across the vast wilderness!
Wherever the hellfire swept through, everything, whether it was people or objects, would be melted into nothingness. Ethan's face was pale as he leaned on the balcony fence. The bright and blazing stream of fire swept past less than ten meters away from him, shattering the left wing of the City Lord's Mansion. The rumbling sound of the wing collapsing resounded in his ears. Ethan's entire body trembled. As long as the stream of fire deviated a little, he might be buried in the flames.
He looked outside the city and saw the source of the gradually disappearing pillar of fire. Ethan could vaguely see a figure filled with oppressive force. He couldn't help but moan, "What is that?"
"What's that?" Regis was standing on the rooftop, hugging his sword and saying excitedly, "Whatever it is, something interesting has finally happened."
Allen's voice came from downstairs, "I don't find it interesting at all. Let's go. That thing is coming for Sur City. We can't let it destroy the city we've just found."
Behind Allen were the soldiers who had reequipped themselves with the Blazing Battle Soldiers, William, and the others. Allen had already picked up Qianjun in his hand and was about to leave. Caesar's voice sounded from behind. Caesar, supported by Father Miro, came down from the house and shouted, "That's Baku. There's no mistake. He must have used demon blood. Allen, kill him. Baku has become a demon who only knows how to kill! "
Allen nodded solemnly.
"Go outside the city!"
After releasing that shockingly powerful stream of fire, Baku seemed to have consumed a large amount of Origin Energy. He gasped for breath, his chest closing, and he spat out large clouds of hot smoke from his chest. When his chest was completely closed, he began to run. The giant's steps were extremely large, ten meters per step, approaching Sur City at a terrifying speed. Alarm bells were already ringing in Sur City, and sharp whistles rang out in the streets of the city, reminding people to stay at home.
The soldiers of the city guards gathered together, and a group of gunmen/gunmen quickly rushed to the wall and entered their respective positions under the command of the officers. Two heavy crossbows were also put into use. Steel arrows as thick as forearms were carried up the city wall by soldiers and loaded into the heavy crossbows' shooting components.
The earth was shaking, and the faces of all the soldiers were deathly pale. They had never encountered such an enemy before, and the fear in their hearts could not be described with words. If it weren't for the constant encouragement of the officers, perhaps some of the soldiers would have already fled.
When the giant was only a hundred meters away from the defensive wall, the officer raised his saber and swung it down in the direction of the giant, "Shoot the heavy crossbow!"
The crossbowman had already anchored the giant. Baku's body was so huge that it was almost impossible to aim accurately. Hearing the officer's order, the crossbowman forcefully pressed down on the trigger. Under the action of gears and hinges, the rough steel arrow made a muffled sound of breaking through the air and shot towards the giant like black lightning.
Baku was running wildly when he suddenly swung his shoulders heavily. The steel arrow nailed deeply into his shoulder, causing his body to swing and fall on his back. Seeing the giant knocked down by the steel arrow, the soldiers on the wall heaved a sigh of relief. At the very least, this enemy was not invincible.
The steel arrow opened a bloody hole in Baku's shoulder. He reached out to grab the tail of the steel arrow and pulled it out forcefully, causing a rain of blood to splash out. However, after the rain of blood, the bloody hole in his shoulder actually began to heal. The shattered bones and muscles inside were regenerating at a visible rate. When the wound was completely closed, Baku stood up again.
"Continue shooting!" The officer shouted.
The two heavy crossbows took turns firing, and the dull sound of breaking through the air rang out again. Baku used the steel arrow in his hand as a weapon to pick up the second arrow and reach out to catch the other arrow. Baku didn't care even if his palm was scratched by the arrow and his flesh splashed. He let out a suppressed roar from his throat. His body spun and he threw out two steel arrows in a row.
The officer's face turned pale and he screamed, "Dodge."
Unfortunately, the crossbowman's reaction was still a step too late. The two heavy crossbows were shattered by the arrows thrown back by Baku. The crossbowman's chest was pierced by the arrows and he fell off the wall with the steel arrows in his arms. Without the suppression of the heavy crossbows, Baku began to charge. The officer shouted hysterically, "Fire/Spear Squad, attack!"
In the darkness, the flames of the fire/gun began to light up. However, the power was limited, and the firepower was not concentrated enough, so it was impossible to cause any real damage to Baku. Baku fiercely crashed into a defensive wall, and the low defensive wall immediately created a gap for the giant. Many gunners didn't have time to dodge. Either crushed to death by the giant or smashed to death by the falling rocks.
"Shoot, don't stop!" Even though he knew that it wouldn't be of much use, the officer still gave the order, because he didn't know what else he could do other than attack.
While the fire/spear squad continued to shoot at Baku, the infantry of the city guards also joined the battle. However, the swords in their hands and the armor on their bodies seemed so thin in front of Baku, the Abyss Devil. Baku shook his head and recovered from the brief dizziness of the collision. First, he stretched out his arms and swept them away like flies, sending the gunners on the two sides of the wall flying.
Then, he picked up a two-meter-wide boulder and smashed it towards the infantry below. The infantry screamed and scattered to the left and right. The two unlucky soldiers didn't have time to escape and could only watch helplessly as the boulder fell and smashed them into meat patties.
For a moment, no one in Baku could control it.
"It's over, it's over!" The officer sat on the wall and watched in despair as his soldiers died in battle. He picked up the iron sword that had fallen to the side and laughed almost crazily. He placed the sword across his neck and was about to kiss himself to apologize when a rough gunshot rang out.
It was definitely not a loud sound that could be produced by a fire/spear. It was like the roar of a ferocious beast. In the next moment, lines of fire swept across Baku's body like long whips. The dense and powerful firepower caused the scales on Baku's body to splatter continuously. The giant was lifting a large stone, but it was blasted back by this fierce barrage. The stone also fell to the ground and smashed its own foot.
"Rather than having the courage to commit suicide, it's better to use this courage in battle."
A man's voice sounded from behind the officer. He turned around and Belmore smiled at him. He turned around and shook his hands, sliding out of his sleeves with a pair of short knives connected to chains. He let out a soft howl and bounced out of the wall. Like a big bat, he landed on the ground and rushed towards the giant. The officer leaned on the wall and saw that the city gate on the other side had opened at some unknown time, and people were continuously pouring out.
One of them had a frosty expression and was exceptionally conspicuous in the dark night. He seemed to have sensed something and turned to look at the officer. The officer immediately recognized that it was the young businessman who had generously provided the Crosses textile technology to Sur City, Allen!
