When Allen climbed halfway up a mountain, it was already dawn. The gentle morning light shone down, leaving behind a contrasting shadow under the mountains.
The further north Twilight Continent went, the more mountains there were, and the temperature dropped. Most of the creatures that lived here were cold-blooded and cold-resistant. These creatures were very persevering. They could hibernate in the soil for many days without moving until prey appeared. Only then would they explode and eat. At this moment, Allen had just squatted down when his heart skipped a beat. He suddenly turned around, raised the Blazing Flame Pistol, and shot out a bullet of Origin Energy behind him.
The unactivated Origin Energy bullet collided with a black shadow that flashed out of the cave, and the bullet exploded into a ball of flames. The high-temperature flames were slightly sticky, and they stuck to the black shadow, causing it to sizzle. As a result, a strange creature that looked like a thick tree trunk fell to the ground. High temperatures and flames were still fatal to ordinary creatures, especially Origin Energy bullets that were activated by blazing flames. They could reach a high temperature of more than a thousand degrees by themselves.
Even without the range of the Blazing Flame Bomb and the temperature of two thousand degrees, it was already fatal to this creature. It twisted a few times and completely lost its aura. The flames gradually extinguished, revealing its straight face. It looked a little like a giant leech, but its skin was covered with many rough veins. Its color was close to brown, and it had a certain degree of deception. There were eyeballs scattered irregularly around his body, and a mouth full of nest teeth was revealed at the front.
Its body was extremely elastic, and its strange muscle distribution allowed it to have multiple power nodes, allowing it to quickly launch a surprise attack from a hidden place. Ignoring the bite force of its mouthpiece, just the impact of the ejection was enough to shatter a boulder. Ordinary creatures would be seriously injured even if they didn't die if they were hit by it with all their might. Naturally, they would become delicacies in the end.
In the Federation's information, this creature was called a giant wooden worm, because it looked like a withered tree when it didn't move. Giant wooden worms usually hid in caves, and in this vast mountain area, there was no shortage of caves. Those strange shapes, large and small caves, were simply the natural nests of northern creatures. Some mountain ranges even had intricate and complicated passageways that connected numerous caves, thus forming numerous unique mountain labyrinths.
At this moment, Hubble was hiding in a natural cave not far away.
This was the third day after the attack by the Goliath Clan. Allen brought two followers all the way north and entered the mountains yesterday evening to get a chance to rest temporarily. Hubble's injuries were severe, but his recovery speed was equally astonishing. This was due to his deep foundation, but it was also due to the genes of his race. With a body that was not inferior to Allen's, which had evolved twice, Hubble's injuries were at least 70% healed today. He could already participate in the battle and had the opportunity to fight with all his strength.
Looking in the direction he had come from, Allen's heart felt as heavy as a mountain. Without the hint of the bloodline, Allen knew that it was the feeling Karin gave him. Karin had been chasing after them for the past three days. She seemed to have made up her mind to kill Allen no matter what. She was like a lover who refused to leave, always chasing after the tails of the three of them. The female giant wasn't good at speed, and her huge body consumed more stamina than Allen and the others under the gravity of the planet. Therefore, until now, Karin could only maintain a tight chase, but she still hadn't been able to catch up to the three of them.
But Allen decided not to escape.
After three days of running in a straight line, he was certain of one thing.
Maine did not follow.
To Allen, Maine was the real enemy. Even though Karin was in danger as a Bloodline Voter, the danger was not on the same level as Maine. Maine represented a power that Allen could not surpass at this moment. It was the power of the upper levels of the Origin Energy System pyramid. Even though Maine was probably only a marginal character at that level, to the current Allen, Maine was already too powerful to defeat.
If it was Maine, Allen would have caught up to him on the day of the attack. But three days had passed, and only Karin was hanging behind. Then it became clear that Maine did not follow. After discovering the traces of the Goliath Clan that day, Allen notified the family camp, and Roddy transferred Fordin over to support them. Therefore, Allen waited fearlessly for Toure to come to his door. Originally, everything was under control. However, he never expected that Maine would put aside all his scruples and come out to kill him.
If it weren't for Karin's interference, perhaps Allen wouldn't have anything to do with this world anymore. After that, Allen set up Maine and Karin at the same time, luring them into fighting. He took Belmore and the other two away from the battlefield with the intention of luring away the two most dangerous people. Judging from the current situation, it was Fuding who arrived in time to force Maine away, so Karin was the only one who caught up.
Although Karin was also very powerful, she wasn't powerful enough to make people despair. Allen had fought with her several times and already had a rough understanding of her strength. This female giant's combat strength should be about the same as Seguris'. That day on Planet Heaven, Allen had almost lost his life to Seguris, who had opened his full strength. However, he had grown a lot now, not to mention that there were two followers. Especially Hubble, who had the strength to challenge Karin when he activated his slaughter posture.
The only thing to worry about was Karin's ability.
The scene of the Red Warriors being annihilated that day was still vivid in his mind, especially when Guild Leader Gubang was mercilessly killed by Karin. At that time, Gubang's bones seemed to grow uncontrollably, twisting and deforming, eventually turning into a sharp weapon that killed him. Needless to say, it was definitely Karin's masterpiece. After that, Allen tried to analyze Karin's abilities and came to the conclusion that when facing the female giant, he had to avoid being injured by her.
Her ability seemed to be to control the target's bones by injuring the target and injecting a certain medium into the target's body, causing it to mutate and eventually killing the target from the inside.
Therefore, the longer it dragged on, the more disadvantageous it would be to deal with Karin's strange abilities. If he wanted to kill her, he would have to strike from afar like Fuding. However, there were no snipers among the three of them, and they didn't have the strength of Fuding to give Karin a fatal blow. In that case, he would have to use thunderous methods to pour out his combat strength in the shortest amount of time to achieve the effect of a quick battle.
In the end, Allen could only choose the latter.
Therefore, while he was observing the terrain, countless combinations of plans flowed through his mind and were screened one by one.
Time passed bit by bit, and the pressure in his heart increased. That meant that Karin was approaching. Allen, on the other hand, showed the calmness he had never shown before, focusing only on what he thought he should do. At nine o 'clock, Allen chose a battlefield. At the same time, he decided on a plan of action. Even though it didn't look perfect, it was the most suitable plan at the moment.
Thus, Allen left the mountainside, leaving behind only the charred giant wooden bug.
A moment later, a long, penetrating howl rang out in the mountain range. Hearing this howl, Karin, who was running with large strides, stopped. For three consecutive days, Karin's face and body were covered in a thin layer of dust after running for a long distance without any rest. The snake-like demonic purple hair also hung down, and their texture became heavy, no longer as flamboyant as before.
Karin let out a long breath and wiped the sweat off her face. The towering chest was rising and falling, and his heart was beating like a bellows at full power. Karin knew her condition very well, and to be honest, she was not in a good state right now. The hidden injuries that Fuding had created for her had never healed, and then he fought Maine three days ago. Even though Karin wasn't injured in that battle, the collision of power with Maine had deepened the hidden injuries that had yet to heal.
Karin didn't forget to rest for the past three days of running. However, at most, he could recover a portion of his physical strength, but he didn't have the strength to recover from those hidden injuries. So they were getting worse and worse, and it wasn't that Karin hadn't thought of giving up. However, Allen was right in front of her. If she missed this opportunity, Karin didn't know how long she would have to wait for another opportunity, and she didn't know if she could wait.
So she didn't give up.
Hearing Allen's howl, it was clear that he wanted to lure her to a duel. Karin snorted coldly. Allen's actions were undoubtedly a provocation, and it was even more contempt for her.
She couldn't ignore it and prepare to fight.
Even if his condition wasn't perfect, so what? It's just three bugs, Karin thought.
Unfortunately, Karin came a little late that day. If she had seen Hubble use the Berserk Spear a minute or two earlier, she wouldn't have thought so now. However, there was never an if in this world, so Karin rushed forward and went deep into the mountains, arriving at the battlefield designated by Allen.
When she saw Allen, Karin couldn't help but frown. This was a long and narrow valley between two mountain ranges. The width of this valley was only about twenty meters. The cliffs on both sides were tall and long, and the dangerous rocks were towering. There were caves of varying sizes scattered irregularly. The ground of the valley belt was also uneven. There were boulders scattered high and low on the ground. Occasionally, there would be one or two deep ravines across the ground, like ugly scars on the ground.
To Karin, the battlefield that Allen had designated was not an ordinary obstacle. Especially for a huge creature like her, there were many restrictions. Karin stared at it for a moment and memorized the terrain in her mind. She spat out two words from her mouth, "Superficial."
In her opinion, Allen intended to use the terrain here to weaken his combat strength. From a strategic point of view, it was wise, but it also depended on who it was. If it was Karin, she could use her tyrannical strength to flatten these obstacles and forcefully trample out a smooth path in the valley belt. Therefore, such a terrain environment was meaningless.
If he had to say it, it would only be a little more troublesome than in the plains.
Karin opened her lips and raised her voice, "So, this is the cemetery you chose?"
