Neuss and the others didn't dare to touch the flame. Instead, they used a long blade to cut the grass monster's body. The grass demon's body was no longer as tough as before after being burned by the raging flames. It was easily cut into several pieces, and the flames on the surface were shaved off. Some of the flames touched the long sword, and after a moment of intense friction on the ground, the flames were extinguished.
The smell of barbecue drifted out from the monster's body. Neuss and Barton rummaged for a moment but didn't find the parasitic soul worm. They couldn't help but feel disappointed.
Dean also felt regret. He waved to Neuss and others as they continued their journey.
After crossing the plains, there was a vast mountainous region in front of him. The plains were interspersed with forests, lakes, and the occasional olden era building, as well as a broken highway and some collapsed and rusted cars.
Corpses could be seen everywhere on the road. There were monsters and skeletons of people who died in the disaster of the old era three hundred years ago.
Most of the monsters they met along the way were pioneers. Occasionally there would be a few small monsters but they would escape in advance when they sensed the smell of the group.
"Master, how far are we from the other giant wall?" Neuss handed the barbecued meat to Dean and curiously asked.
Dean took a bite of the barbecue: "I don't know. I haven't been on this route. But sooner or later we will meet them. Even if we don't meet them we will see the southern border of the empire. We should be able to find someone there to ask about the giant wall."
Neuss was startled. He understood that Dean should be avoiding the mysterious and powerful woman in the palace of Silvia. There was a trace of yearning and curiosity in his heart. He thought that Silvia was the only gathering place for humans. But now it seemed that there was a wider world outside the kingdom of God.
How big was the world?
This question was enough to make people excited.
After dinner, they extinguished the bonfire. They hid in the woods to rest. Dean was responsible for patrolling the night. He didn't trust the others. Neuss and Barton felt ashamed but they couldn't do anything about it.
On the third day of the journey, they once again broke into the territory of an abyss level monster. Dean saw the strength of the monster but the other side was also aware of them. They couldn't avoid it so they had to fight.
It was a monster that looked like a western dragon. Its body was nearly twenty meters long, and its wings were spread out like sails. Its whole body was covered with black scales, and sharp thorns protruded from its back. There were three huge eyes on its oval belly. As it flew towards Dean, the three giant eyes quickly opened, revealing scarlet pupils, like a demonic moon.
Dean ordered Neuss and others to retreat. His body suddenly ignited with raging flames. Even his hair was burning but his hair didn't curl. Bright red hair grew out of his body and his physique became sturdy. His chest was like granite and his muscles were full and swollen. His pupils were like glaring eyes that spurted out flames. A black tail grew out of his back.
The shape of the sun beast and the splitter were mixed together. The sun beast was a monster that looked like a lion. To be precise, it was closer to the Qilin in Chinese mythology. There was a red bone on its forehead. It was crystal clear like a gem. It could store sunlight so that the sun beast could play a certain combat ability at night.
At this moment, on Dean's forehead, there was also a bright red bone, reflecting dazzling light under the sunlight. It was noon, the time when the Sun Beast ability was at its strongest. The moment the dragon flew over, Dean's mind moved, and the special red bone on his forehead suddenly shot out a dazzling light beam!
Yes, it was a beam of light! It was like a laser!
This was the ability that Dean had figured out in the past three days. He had gradually understood and adapted to his new body in the continuous battles. He was several times stronger than before the experiment. His physique was also stronger. He felt that he should have the strength of the upper abyss or even stronger! The beam of light reached the dragon's body.
The beam of light reached the body of the green-scaled dragon in an instant. Unable to dodge, the green-scaled dragon felt the danger approaching. Its head instinctively tilted, but the beam of light had already arrived. Bang! The beam hit the left eye on its head. The eye socket burst open and blood flowed out. The tough scales were directly penetrated by the beam of light. The sharp pain made the dragon crazy. It flapped its wings and flew, stirring up a gust of wind. It raised its head and roared, rushing toward Dean at a faster speed.
Dean aimed at the dragon's head. Light flashed on its forehead.
Whoosh!
The second beam of light shot out.
The head of the green-scaled dragon was hit. The light burned a fist-sized hole in its skull. Green smoke came out of the hole. The inside of the hole was scorched black.
This strike caused the green-scaled dragon to directly fall from the sky, crashing into the forest, smashing through a large number of trees. It crouched on the ground, roaring in pain. Suddenly, it raised its wings, hugging its upper body.
Dean frowned slightly. A golden luster appeared in his pupils, like two groups of jumping golden flames. At this moment, the body structure of the cyan-scaled dragon was completely seen by him. He also saw a weak spot in the gap between its wings. There were no bones there, only flesh and blood.
Whoosh!
The third beam of light flew out from his forehead and instantly penetrated the gap between the wings. After penetrating it, it shot straight into the right eye of the dragon behind the wings. The miserable howl of pain sounded again.
The green-scaled dragon loosened its wings, turned around and ran away.
A cold light flashed in Dean's eyes. The fourth beam of light converged on his forehead. He wanted to take advantage of the situation to pursue the dragon. However, a burst of dizziness came over him. At the same time, he felt a sharp pain in his chest. It was as if he was suffocating. His whole body couldn't help but tremble.
He grunted, and the light that gathered on his forehead naturally dissipated, turning into heat energy that was stored in the special red bone on his forehead. He clenched his teeth, held his breath, and tightened his muscles, enduring the sudden pain. Not long after, the pain gradually subsided. When he raised his head, the green-scaled dragon was only a tiny shadow left, and he could no longer catch up to it.
"Master?" Neuss was always paying attention to Dean's situation. He rushed over as he saw Dean's abnormality.
Dean slowly landed and put away the flames and the Splitting Devil's Tail. He couldn't see that his face was as pale as paper. He took a deep breath and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead: "I'm fine."
Neuss looked at him suspiciously. He couldn't hide the worry in his eyes. He knew that Dean's body had been severely damaged by the previous experiment. After all, there were sequelae. Dean's abnormal pause and extremely bad complexion could explain this.
"Teacher, you don't have a heart. It's too dangerous to fight!" Edward squeezed himself out of the crowd and said to Dudian. Although he was studying the divine arts, his physique was at the Pioneer level. His physique was almost the same as the other confidants around him. But in terms of combat ability, any one of them could easily kill him.
Hearing Edward's words, Neuss, Barton, and the others nodded repeatedly.
The others were dumbfounded. They suspected that there was something wrong with their ears. But looking at the expression of Neuss and others, it seemed that the situation was not fake. They couldn't help but feel strange. Dean didn't have a heart but he was still alive. Moreover, he had such a powerful fighting strength!
Dean's heart slightly moved. Golden light floated in his eyes. He looked down at his chest and saw that the place where his heart used to be, where many blood vessels and wounds converged to form a black-purple organ. It was the size of a peach and looked like a small heart. At this moment, it was beating, and the blood in his body flowed back and out. The previous pain came from this black heart.
"Is it because I used too much strength? Can't bear the load?" A thoughtful look appeared in Dean's eyes. Previously, he had used the Sun Beast's ability to project light rays, and each time, he would deal with the monsters in one strike. Today, he had used it three times in a row. The fourth time seemed to be his limit.
"It seems that I can't use too much strength in the future. Otherwise, the organ will be overwhelmed and explode." Dean saw that Neuss, Barton and others were looking at him with concern. He smiled: "Don't worry. I just used too much strength. Let's continue our journey."
Neuss, Barton and others looked at each other. They saw helplessness and bitterness in each other's eyes. They wanted to stop Dean from taking risks. But they knew that it was unrealistic. They couldn't survive here without Dean. Although they knew that it was dangerous for Dean to continue to fight, they had to acquiesce. But this made them more eager for power.
Dean didn't use his wings but followed Neuss and others. From time to time he used his x-ray vision to look at the surrounding environment. Although it was a burden on his body but it didn't affect him.
After traveling for more than ten minutes, Dean felt that his body had gradually recovered a lot. His limbs no longer felt cold and weak. He heaved a sigh of relief and recalled the previous battle. He sighed with emotion in his heart. The ability of the Sun Beast Soul Worm was too exaggerated. It was even more terrifying than Splitter. Previously, the green-scaled dragon had not even approached him and was almost killed by him!
This kind of terrifying long-range attack was enough to make the enemy desperate.
"The magic mark that Crimson Moon chose for me is really a good match for me. Splitter is my strength in melee combat, and with this Sun Beast, I am basically invincible in ranged combat. The only thing I lack is defense and perception. However, if I can kill the enemy in advance, I won't need to defend." He felt that Crimson Moon gave him the sun beast soul worm because of his magic mark. The latter not only wanted to transform him into a god but also a ferocious god of war!
Suddenly feeling the unprecedented strength of his own body, Dean's originally indifferent heart couldn't help but become active again. He suddenly felt that his situation was not as bad as he had imagined before, and he could still be rescued.
For example, if he could stabilize the black heart, would he be able to live forever? Or could he find a matching human heart to replace the black heart? Could he solve the hidden dangers in his body?
In any case, Dean decided to understand his own situation first. Don't forget, he was also a scientist. As long as he had the resources, he was fully capable of performing an operation on himself!
"Felicia said that it would take about three months to travel from the God of War Wall in the east to the empire. It would take about a month to travel from Silvia to the empire. If I travel to the God of War Wall in the south, it should take about two months …" Dean estimated the time in his heart. The worst case scenario was to directly rush to the God of War Wall in the south and find a sentinel to interrogate for a map.
Autumn.
It was drizzling.
The God of Berga Wall was located in the south of the empire, close to the sixth devil pit.
At this moment, five silhouettes were standing at the edge of the sixth devil pit. Two of them were holding a strange instrument in their hands. One of them was holding a metal box the size of a tape recorder. The box was connected to a cable, and the other end of the cable was tied to two trumpet-like objects. The last person was holding the two trumpet-like objects and was waving them around in the air.
When he felt that he had felt enough, he put away the metal trumpet-like metal tools.
At this time, another person grabbed the rotten mud from the ground and sealed it in a transparent test tube.
"Let's go inside and have a look." A middle-aged man wearing a black mask whispered. His mask was obviously not an ordinary dust mask. There was a sophisticated leakage net on it to prevent the parasitic worms that floated in the air from the devil pit.
Just as they were about to move forward, the middle-aged man's body suddenly froze. He raised his hand and gestured for them to be quiet. At the same time, he looked at his wrist. There was a strange watch there that was vibrating slightly.
His gaze was solemn as he quickly flipped open his wristwatch. On it was a dark green grid with a large number of red dots approaching.
"Herd?" The middle-aged man frowned and pressed on the side of the watch. The grid was enlarged and a row of data appeared. He was startled: "Humans?"
Soon, the watch showed the life data of the group of red dots.
He stared for a moment and frowned. It seemed that he was hesitating.
After a moment, he made up his mind and said to the people around him: "Follow me."
Whoosh!
Dean flew in the air. His eyes flashed as he scanned the forest in front of him. There were many heat sources in the forest. All of them were small monsters. Suddenly, his eyes fell on one of them.
"Stop." Dean raised his hand.
Neuss and others on the ground stopped and vigilantly looked around.
"Wait for me here." Dean spread out his magic wings and flew away. He was as fast as a rainbow!
Whoosh!
The strong wind blew, bending the treetops.
