The horned barbarian monsters heard the roar.
A few of their leaders poked their heads out and let out a sharp and short cry.
Regardless of whether it was the monsters that were hiding under the rock walls or the monsters that were harassing them in the rain, they quickly gathered into groups. When there were more than a thousand of them in the group, they squeezed together tightly. Only then did they manage to muster up some courage.
The deep roar seemed to have disappeared, and it had been a long time since the same sound was heard in the rain.
The horned barbarian monsters seemed to be very impatient with the rain.
Those at the periphery wanted to return to the cliff to hide from the rain.
Suddenly.
A deafening roar exploded, comparable to a thunderbolt.
The terrifying sound caused the entire Long Rock Canyon to rumble, and the sound lingered in the air for a long time.
"Look over there!" Hugo wiped his face and pointed at a direction in the rain: "Over there, God, my God, a giant beast, a giant beast is attacking! Everyone be on full alert! Continue to build the second line of defense, and quickly, we need to race against the Grim Reaper! Damn it! Did these monsters crawl out from hell? "
"Calm down, Hugo, we need you to be absolutely calm, you are our shield! We will be fine, the Almighty God, the God who is everywhere, is watching over us! Even if we are in hell, we will not lose hope! This is our pilgrimage test, we are about to enter the holy land, this is the God's test of our courage, faith and actions! " Cardinal Chino himself saw a dozen gigantic shadows slowly approaching from the curtain of rain, and his expression changed drastically with fright, but he tried his best to remain calm.
"I am very calm, I am not controlled by fear, I only hope that more people will realize how bad the situation is!" Hugo swallowed his saliva.
"Interesting monsters, isn't it?" Bloody Mary's face was cold, but her eyes were burning with flames.
The gigantic shadows appeared from the rain.
Slowly approaching.
The horned barbarian monsters were the most panicked.
Under the leadership of their leader, they frantically climbed up the rock walls, desperately fleeing towards the higher parts of the Long Rock Canyon.
Their hooves were not very suitable for climbing, not to mention that the walls on both sides were inclined at eighty degrees. If it were not for the fear of death, they would not have chosen such a path. Even if they could bypass the human stone walls and attack the prey behind the stone walls, they would not have chosen such a method to attack.
The Commander-tier monsters led the way, climbing higher and higher.
It was extremely fast.
The danger had forced them to unleash their potential.
Of course, not every Horned Monster was lucky enough to escape up the steep cliff and escape to a higher part of the canyon. About one-fifth of the Horned Monsters lost their footing when climbing up the cliff due to crowding or slippery conditions, falling from a high height. Countless of them broke their limbs, and some even had their necks broken on the spot.
Some of the horned monsters that couldn't make it to the rock wall in time charged directly at the huge stone wall that the human exploration team had built.
They intended to open a passage for escape in this place.
Kill!
Go to hell!
Under the perseverance of Hugo and the others.
These Sharp-Toothed Horned Monsters, who had lost all will to fight, were quickly killed.
Even the fastest among them could not cross the second line of defense before being cut down by the Eden Army's Guardian Knights.
What made Hugo, Chino, and the other human leaders feel a chill in their hearts.
Even though they were all wiped out.
None of the horned monsters turned around to run away from the gigantic shadows.
"What are those monsters?" David rushed in front of an ascetic and pointed at the approaching huge shadows. "What are their weaknesses? What kind of attacks are they afraid of? How should we deal with them? Tell me, tell me! "
"I've never seen them before!" The ascetic shook his head.
"What happened?" Cardinal Nero rushed over from the second line of defense with the Guardian Knights.
"Giant beasts!" Thomas couldn't help but cry out when he saw this. The enemies that were gradually approaching from the curtain of rain and gradually revealing their true bodies were extremely huge and ugly monsters. They were about eight meters tall, with some being slightly taller and some being slightly shorter. However, the shortest ugly giant beast's head was more than seven meters tall. Their huge bodies were not clumsy. On the contrary, based on their light steps, they were good at tracking their prey.
If there was an adjective to describe these disgusting and huge beasts.
It would be ugly.
No one.
Could accurately describe their appearance.
That was because these ugly beasts were simply too ugly!
Under their greedy and bloodthirsty eyes, there was a terrifying huge mouth that occupied nearly half of their heads.
The mouth was split open.
It was open.
It could expand to 180 degrees at any time. The mouth was densely packed with dagger-shaped teeth. These teeth were uneven and arranged in a messy manner, but strangely, they filled the entire mouth.
The tongue inside the mouth was a little like a lizard's. It was white with a hint of flesh and blood, and a few tongues had purple spots. The giant beasts' entire tongues were relatively thin compared to their bodies. They were long and tube-shaped, extending out of their throats. They were elastic and flexible, capturing the scents in the air and making hissing sounds.
Most of the monsters escaped to the rock walls above the canyon. They still didn't stop.
They continued to run for their lives.
It was as if the ugly monsters at the bottom of the canyon were their natural enemies.
Those who had fallen down from the cliff and injured their legs were also struggling, limping towards the human giant stone wall. Apart from those who couldn't get up, the rest of the Horned Devils all scrambled to run for their lives.
As the ugly giant beasts slowly approached.
The earth was in a state of panic.
In the chaos.
Fallen creatures carrying the ugly giant beasts could be seen everywhere.
"Look!" Bord pointed to the front, gesturing for Thomas and Josiah to take a closer look.
In the direction he pointed.
A long-horned monster with protruding teeth that couldn't walk fast.
When the ugly giant beast caught up with it, it casually tilted its head and extended its long, tube-shaped tongue.
A black thorn suddenly protruded from the tongue.
Poof!
The black thorn lightly pricked the injured Horned Devil, and it immediately fell to the ground.
"What a violent poison!" Thomas's pupils contracted to the size of a needle. The ugly giant beasts were already hard enough to fight, but now they discovered that their flexible tongues had poisonous thorns. This undoubtedly increased the difficulty of resisting them by a few levels!
The moment the ugly giant beast retracted its tongue, the long, tube-shaped tongue rolled up its prey and threw it into its mouth full of sharp teeth.
It was even easier than a human eating a small snack. The ugly beast opened its mouth and ate the horned monster with sharp teeth.
Chewing, chewing, chewing …
After chewing a few times, it swallowed with a gulp.
When Josiah saw this, he couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.
In the chaos, some of the monsters tried their best to avoid the black thorn from the ugly giant beast's tongue.
However, this did not mean that they could escape with their lives. On the contrary, they completely angered the ugly giant beast that attacked them. It raised its pillar-like leg that was several meters tall and flattened the long-horned monster with its fangs.
When the giant legs moved away.
Only a pool of blood and flesh was left.
However, the ugly behemoths did not use their tongues to curl up some of the long-horned monsters' heads and eat them. Instead, they used their tubular tongues to directly pierce into the prey's body, and then injected some unknown venom into it. Josiah and the others saw that after the venom was injected, the monster's body bulged at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The ugly giant beast slowly sucked with its tube-shaped tongue.
Clumps of unknown tissue, which might have been a mixture of flesh and blood, were sucked upwards from the tubular tongue like a human sucking juice with a straw. In just a short while, the bulging corpse of the Long-Horned Barbarous-Fanged Devil had been sucked into a wrinkled piece of fur …
"These guys are so disgusting. Mr. Wood and the others didn't come. Could they have eaten him?" David suddenly had a thought. If Mr. Wood encountered these monsters on the way, and he was unwilling to abandon his companions, it was very likely that he would be stung by the black stingers of the tubular tongues of these ugly giant beasts in the melee. In the end, he would die and become food in the stomachs of these monsters.
"If Mr. Wood could be eaten by them, then he wouldn't be called Mr. Wood!" Bord thought that David's fantasy was ridiculous.
"Come on, you won't be eaten by these ugly giant beasts. Why would Mr. Wood be worse than you?" Josiah said sarcastically. The team led by Mr. Wood might not be able to retreat unscathed from the monster's encirclement, but it would be a huge joke if they were eaten by a group of ugly giant beasts.
Were there no giant monsters in Death Canyon?
Giant snakes.
And ugly monster couples.
And the long-legged mother of spiders whose body was the size of a small castle, and so on.
In comparison, Mr. Wood, who was still a captive, was in a much more difficult situation than he was now.
Now, Mr. Wood not only had strong companions by his side, but he also had a team of special forces who had been injected with genetic potions to protect him. He even had the full support of genetic warriors from the Dark Palace, the Teutonic Knights, and the Eastern European Grand Alliance. Back then, he had nothing. Even the muzzle of his gun was pointed at him. He was afraid that he would abandon the team and escape alone … In the Death Canyon, which he knew nothing about, Mr. Wood could still explore and research calmly in that kind of desperate situation. How could a mere Fallen Land, which wasn't even a Holy Land, do anything to him?
"I just want to know what we should do now!" Bloody Mary looked at Cardinal Chino. "Should we defend or retreat? Should we send people back to ask for reinforcements? Or should we act like a lizard cutting off its tail? You must come up with a decision as soon as possible. Otherwise, I will lead my subordinates to leave the team! I will never act with a team without a plan. You must give me the most effective plan, and immediately! "
"Please give me some time, Mary. I promise you, no matter what, your interests and safety will not be below ours." Cardinal Chino also knew that it was time to make a decision.
If they did nothing and waited for the ugly giant beasts to attack, it was very likely that they would be wiped out.
Of course, they could not turn to any doctor in a desperate situation.
Wrong choice.
The consequences would be equally serious.
So, should they choose to defend or retreat?
This was an extremely difficult choice. Just as Bloody Mary said, time waited for no man. If they did not make a choice quickly, then once the ugly giant beasts launched a full-scale attack, the result would be another direction.
Sometimes, not having a choice was more passive than making a wrong choice.
More unpredictable!
"Let's spend three minutes to have a meeting. While the ugly giant beasts are still devouring those injured long-horned monsters, let's seize the opportunity to discuss what we should do next. Should we defend or retreat? If we defend, how should we defend? If we retreat, how should we retreat? Also, should we send the appropriate people to look for Mr. Wood? Should we tell them that we left the Long Rock Canyon? Or should we ask for his help? All of you, tell us! " Cardinal Chino gathered the leaders of the various forces together and threw out the topic of choice. He asked everyone to hurry up and come up with a solution.
Hearing Cardinal Chino's words.
The leaders of the various forces fell into silence.
Choose to defend?
Choose to retreat?
Either of these two choices was a headache, but they had to make a choice! This was truly a difficult and confusing choice!
