No matter which eyeball it was, it reflected a world that had been cut into pieces. The monster suddenly retracted its head, like a tortoise retreating into its thick carapace. The Flaming Flash Seven Kills blasted the thick shell, and the force of the impact set off a ten-meter-high wall of waves in the lake. However, when the lake waves fell, seven crisscrossing red streaks of light appeared on the thick shell, but they did not chop the monster's head into pieces as Allen had expected.
A moment later, the giant beast poked its big head out of the thick shell, and the few eyes on its head revealed anger.
"It's really hard." Allen shook his head with a wry smile. That thing was much smarter than he had imagined. It actually knew how to hide its head, otherwise the battle would have been over by now.
The giant beast in the lake roared, and the tentacles on its back stood up and aimed at the people on the shore. A small hole suddenly opened at the front of the tentacles, and then a pale green liquid sprayed out from it.
"Be careful, don't let them touch you," Allen shouted, and at the same time, he tiptoed away from his original position. A green water swept past where he was standing, and the place where the liquid touched gave off a choking smell. The vegetation on the shore immediately withered and rotted when it was splashed. It seemed to be a very strong acid water.
A burst of acid water sprayed out, forcing everyone to disperse. Fortunately, Allen reminded them, so no one was splashed by the acid water. Seeing that the acid attack was ineffective, the giant beast swam towards the lake. Its mountain-like body moved, and immediately the lake water slapped against the shore with an astonishing momentum.
The Adventurers' Musketeer and Bath, and Allen's Lucy and Edward, four people with long-range attacks, were the first to attack the monster. The bullets from the guns, the Golden Rose's Fire Bullets, Bath's Lightning Arrows, and Edward, Wind Blades, and Wind Whirlwind constantly bombarded the monster. The explosion caused a burst of lightning and fire on the giant beast's body, and the wind whistled. The scene was very spectacular. However, the actual damage to it was not great. The only thing that could really penetrate its thick armor was the "Shield Break" ability that the Golden Rose had applied to the bullets.
This ability allowed Lucy's Fire Ball to first penetrate the outer shell of the giant beast and then explode inside, causing a certain amount of damage. As for the others, the firepower of their guns was not enough to penetrate their thick armor. The lightning arrows and wind blades were like scratches to them. Edward was still fine. After realizing that he couldn't break the armor, he changed his strategy and changed the target of the wind blade to the tentacles.
Even though he could not directly cut off the tentacles like Allen's Flame Breath Flash, the continuous attacks of the hundred or so wind blades still tore the monster's tentacles to the point that they were drenched in blood.
However, none of this could stop the monster from reaching the shore.
When it got closer, they could feel the pressure brought by its huge body. It was as if even the sun was blocked by it. When the giant beast approached the shore, Allen and the others were already shrouded in its huge shadow. The ground shook slightly, and a thick and short claw stretched out from the water and slammed on the shore, causing the ground to sink by ten centimeters.
Another claw grabbed the ground on the shore, and the monster struggled to pull itself out of the lake. The lake water flowed down from its rough carapace, forming small waterfalls that landed on the surface of the lake, causing an ear-splitting sound of water. Raising his head to look at the giant beast in front of him, Garner said with a bitter expression, "How are we going to defeat it …"
"Let's retreat first and lure it to the shore. If it's in the water, it'll be hard for us to deal with it. " Shouted Allen, directing everyone to retreat, but letting Edward and Lucy maintain their attacks to attract the attention of the giant beast.
After the giant beast's body was completely out of the water, it could be seen that under its hill-like body were six thick and short legs. It was like a giant turtle, if a turtle had tentacles. After leaving the water, the giant beast moved its tentacles to attack. Its movements were clumsy and slow, but its tentacles were flexible and fast. They were like long whips, forming a dense whip shadow as they waved.
"Mr. Garner, we'll attack it from the front to attract its attention." Allen shouted, "The others will circle around to its side or tail and attack its tentacles or legs."
"Lucy, Edward, attack its eyes."
"Let's go!"
An engraving appeared on Allen's forehead. When the pattern of the prairie blade completely lit up, Qianjun spat out a meter of flames. Allen dragged the heavy saber wrapped in flames and charged forward. Garner also raised his giant sword, but whispered to Red Leaf beside him, "Let Fatty take a look underwater first."
Red Leaf nodded and nimbly circled to Drew's side. Garner circulated his Origin Energy without holding back. Dark red flames rose from his entire body as he followed Allen and attacked. The two of them successfully attracted the attention of the giant beast. The monster opened its mouth and the carapace on its back suddenly lit up. As the lines became brighter and brighter, the aura on the monster's body became stronger and stronger.
When he saw the light flickering in the mouth, Allen shouted, "Get down!"
He pounced forward and touched the ground. The sound of wind and thunder rang out above his head, and a jade-green pillar of light pierced through the air. The outer wall of the pillar of light was jade-green, but the core was a vast expanse of white. It spat out from the monster's mouth and shot across a distance of a thousand meters like the main quantum cannon of a battleship. Along the way, everything that blocked the path of the beam of light was destroyed.
In the end, the beam of light landed in the distant forest, and the space suddenly dimmed. A jade-colored fireball lit up from there. When the fireball rose to a hundred meters in the air, it exploded with a loud bang. The powerful impact formed a halo that could be seen with the naked eye. Within the halo, a miserable green pillar of fire soared into the sky, almost as if it was going to pierce through the sky, causing people to be shocked to the core.
It was a breath of Origin Energy from a giant beast. There were no tricks, it was just pure strength. However, it was precisely because it was pure that it appeared exceptionally domineering. If it weren't for the fact that the giant beast was too large, there would have been a blind spot in the trajectory of the spray, allowing Allen and Garner to dodge it. Otherwise, if the two of them were to be washed away by this torrent of Origin Energy, they would probably die.
However, after spitting out this beam of light, the aura of the giant beast was clearly much weaker. Even the tentacles weren't as crazy as before. Allen stood up, and with a flash, he arrived under the giant beast's head. His toes pressed down on the ground, causing a wave of air to explode. Allen jumped high into the air. His figure continued to rise, and in the blink of an eye, he had already rushed up six to seven meters. Qianjun raised his head high and shouted. He smashed down with blazing heavenly flames, drawing out a flaming moon in midair.
The heavy saber smashed into the giant beast's head. This strike was like a mountain, causing the monster's head to sink. The thousand degrees of flames on the saber burned its scales red, causing the monster to cry out in pain. Allen used his strength to bounce up and land on the giant beast's head. He leaned forward and dragged his heavy saber to attack one of the monster's eyeballs. Suddenly, the sound of wind rang out, but a tentacle whipped over like a whip.
Allen raised his saber to block. With a muffled sound, he was sent flying by the tentacle, and one of his arms was numb and sore.
Helplessly landing on the ground, Garner brushed past him with his giant sword and attacked the monster's head, fighting with its tentacles. Allen landed on the ground and swept his gaze around. The others also joined the battle circle. Among them, the most dazzling was Regis. The youth didn't move, but once he moved, he would definitely bring about a strong sword light. Sword light filled the sky, always able to cut off the monster's tentacles.
The most low-key one was Belmore. He flashed beside the monster like a ghost. The monster didn't seem to know of his existence. The tentacles attacked the others, but he was the only one who missed him. Belmore took the opportunity to use his chain blade to greet the beast's short leg, tearing open a long wound each time. However, to the enormous body of the giant beast, this little injury was nothing at all.
This was also an unavoidable shortcoming for Belmore. He was smart enough and agile enough. However, he lacked the ability to attack. It was fine if his opponent was a human. As soon as he collided with this huge, thick-skinned, dangerous species in front of him, Belmore seemed to be at a loss for what to do.
A loud shout rang out in midair, but Garner was also swept down by the tentacles of the giant beast. Allen frowned. This fellow was so huge, so his vitality must be extremely tenacious. Without heavy firepower weapons and equipment, or in the case of powerhouses at the Awakened level, who knew how much time and effort it would take to defeat this monster.
In fact, the simplest way was for Allen to self-destruct at the monster's head. However, with Garner and the other adventurers present, Allen didn't want to use the Destruction Heavy Sniper so easily. God knew if the Origin Tool would attract the attention of the empire's experts once it was exposed. Right now, Storm City had only just started, and Allen and the others weren't strong enough to contend against the high-level combat power in the empire. Naturally, it was better to be careful.
However, when he thought of the Destruction Heavy Sniper, Allen remembered the Devil's Praise of the First Grade Awakening Posture. The Blood Hymn was much more low-key than the Destruction Heavy Sniper in terms of appearance and ability. Although the Blood Hymn's ability wasn't as powerful as the Destruction Strong Plant, it was the ideal method in the current situation.
He immediately pulled out the Devil's Praise from behind his waist and held the Heavy Saber Qianjun in his right hand. Allen pounced on the giant beast again.
While everyone was fighting with the giant beast, Fatty Drew pretended to attack for a while. Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, he secretly retreated to the lake, took a deep breath, and dived into the lake. Under the sunlight, the lake rippled. Originally, the water in the lake was very clear, but after being stirred up by the giant beast just now, it looked a little muddy. However, Drew could barely see clearly that the lake was very deep. It was afternoon and the sun was shining brightly, but he could barely see the bottom of the lake.
Drew guessed that the lake was about a dozen meters deep. As he swam to the bottom of the lake, he could see that the surface of the lake was covered with green moss and water plants. There was an obvious dent on it. Judging from the size of the dent, it was about the same size as the giant beast. Normally, this should be the place where giant beasts lived and slept. Perhaps the battle on the shore and the aura of Origin Energy had alarmed the guardians of the ruins.
However, when Drew dived to the bottom of the lake, he couldn't find anything like the entrance to the ruins. However, the lake was very large, and Drew was not discouraged. After determining his direction, he swam in the opposite direction of the lake shore and paid attention to any suspicious things nearby.
