"These creatures … are all gathered here."
There was a huge building here that was completely made of trees. It was hemispherical in shape and had a diameter of tens of meters.
On top of the building, a creature was looking down at the surroundings. This creature … was called the Hero.
It was observing the situation from the top of the building. A large group of creatures appeared around the building. They were all called 'Hui'. They gathered here not because of the Hero, but because …
"They're eating something?"
The Hero poked its head out from the top of the building and saw that the Hui were in a small circle, eating something unknown.
"Ah —!" However, the Hero could hear sharp screams coming from the food they were eating. There was also blood flowing out from the ground, which made the Hero feel very strange.
However, the Hero was more concerned about what it should do.
It wanted to catch a Hui that was alone to obtain information, but there were too many Hui here. If it attacked rashly, it would be surrounded. In that case, it could only wait for an opportunity to leave this place first.
But how should it leave?
Let's use this method!
The Hero stood up and looked at the sky. Then, it jumped up into the air with all its might. The moment it jumped up, raging flames shot out from its feet!
All the Hui looked at the sky at this moment. In their eyes, they saw something flickering with flames rushing toward the top of the cave … However, before it reached the top, it spun a few times in the air and slammed into the ground.
"Woo!!" The Hui screamed. They quickly dodged to the side. Meanwhile, the Hero that was rushing down crashed into the ground with a loud bang.
The Hui that were scared away gathered again. They ran to the place where the Hero crashed and watched.
The Hui looked at the Hero that had created a small hole in the ground. Although the impact was huge, the Hero didn't seem to be injured.
"Guuu?" A Hui walked up to the Hero and sniffed its body …
Suddenly, the Hero reached out and grabbed the Hui's nose!
"Woo woo woo!" The Hui struggled violently. The Hui nearby started screaming. At this moment, the Hero stood up again …
"Ah … this is my first time using this. I can't control it well … "
Rubbing his dizzy head, the Hero looked around and said, "What should we do now?"
The Hero's body structure was a little special, so it wouldn't die so easily. However, it still felt the pain of the impact and couldn't move freely.
"Wu wu gu!" Suddenly, a Hou slammed into him and sent him flying. He rolled a few times on the ground before coming to a stop.
"These things seem to be very hostile to everything …"
Everyone started to surround him. They seemed to be ready to attack at any moment.
The Brave Warrior stood up again. He raised his sword and looked at them. The Hero was prepared to go all out.
'Boom!!!'
Suddenly, there was a loud explosion in the distance. The small 'sun' hanging on the ceiling of the cave had suddenly exploded. The glowing liquid inside splashed out like raindrops and disappeared into the forest of needles below.
Boom! Boom! Boom! '
At the same time, the glowing objects on the ceiling all exploded. Under the roar, all the moles ran away as if they were greatly frightened. Soon, there was not a single Hui around the Hero.
At the same time, the entire underground world turned dark.
"This … what's going on?"
With the help of the light from the firebees on the sword, the Hero looked at the dark surroundings. It seemed that the Hui wasn't the only one who was frightened. The Hero noticed that the nearby plants had started to tremble.
"Those trees … are trembling?"
Every few seconds, the thorny plants would tremble violently … It looked like the trees were afraid.
The entire forest was trembling non-stop, and rustling sounds echoed in the forest. Many of the thorns on the plants fell off and were absorbed by the lichens on the ground.
Faced with this strange situation, the Hero's solution was … to stay put.
However, it wasn't that he didn't want to move. If he moved, he would feel pain all over. He could only stay put and slowly recover his strength. Fortunately, the Hero's recovery ability was very strong.
"Is this the 'night' here?"
While his body recovered, the Hero also paid attention to the changes in his surroundings. The plants continued to tremble for a while before stopping. Many of the thorns on their bodies had fallen off. They looked like they were bald.
As for the Hui, he didn't know where they had run to. The Hero only knew that they definitely didn't run into the nearby building. It seemed that they didn't think a building was a place to hide.
There was definitely some danger in this forest. The Hero could already hear some strange sounds coming from the forest from time to time.
"Ah!!!"
A violent scream entered the Hero's ears. He hurriedly looked in the direction of the scream.
He saw a small creature enter the range of his sword's light. This creature was …
Was it the kind of creature that Hui ate?
The Hero couldn't see it clearly from the building, but he could vaguely make out the creature's shape. It was a small creature that was only thirty centimeters tall. It had four limbs and was very fast. It ran in front of the Hero in two steps, as if it wasn't afraid of the Hero at all.
No, perhaps it was too afraid of the dark. When it saw the Hero's light, it ran over.
When it got closer, the Hero took a closer look and realized that this creature was very similar to a creature he had seen before …
As the Hero thought about it, he recalled the past. He used to be a pure Hero who had been working hard to fight against demons …
He wondered how the town he used to live in was doing …
This creature was similar to the ones the Hero often saw in the town. It was called 'Monchi.' It was a creature similar to Moss, especially its hands.
The creatures here were also very similar, but because it was cold here, they had more fur. However, they basically looked the same. Why would there be such creatures here? According to the Red Pompom Demon King's description, this should be a very distant alternate world. Moreover, they seemed to be Hui's prey.
"Ah!"
Suddenly, the Hero heard another scream. In the surrounding forest, more 'Monchi' ran out. They all gathered under the Hero's shining sword.
Dong!
At the same time, the Hero felt the ground tremble.
It seemed like something huge was moving. The Monchi gathered under the Hero's sword. The Hero could clearly see that they were constantly trembling. As expected, something terrifying would appear at night.
"Gu …"
Two trees in front of the Hero were suddenly pressed to the side by a huge force. A huge creature appeared in front of the Hero's eyes.
"Where did this come from?"
This creature looked like a huge worm, but its entire body was transparent. Under the illumination of the light, all sorts of things could be seen in its transparent body.
These things included sharp thorns of plants, broken stones, and … the bones of creatures.
The Hero could confirm that these were probably Hui's bones. The sword's light wasn't very bright, so he couldn't see the worm's full appearance. However, the Hero guessed that it was about two meters long and its body was … about two meters wide.
"Ah ah ah!"
The Monchi screamed as if they were being tortured. They all climbed onto the Hero's sword, but by doing so, they blocked the light. Their companions immediately pulled the Monchi down from the sword and climbed onto it themselves. The Monchi that were pulled down repeated their previous actions, pulling their companions down from the sword and climbing onto it themselves.
Seeing their actions, the Hero felt that this was more important than the worm.
However, the worm was obviously very dangerous. If it was at full strength, the Hero would have some confidence in challenging such a huge creature. But now, he couldn't. So, the Hero thought of a solution.
The Monchi must have followed the sword's light. The Hero thought as he raised the sword and threw it with all his might.
The moment the sword landed, all the Monchi rushed in the direction of the sword and continued to surround it.
The worm also stared at the sword and the Monchi around it …
However, this only lasted for a few seconds. Suddenly, the worm turned to the Hero in the darkness and pounced on him.
"What? Could it be … "
The Hero didn't care about his injuries. He rolled on the ground and dodged the worm's charge while running in the direction of the sword.
"Ah!"
But as soon as it took two steps, it felt something grab its leg and pull it back.
The Hero turned his head and saw the worm's transparent mouth right in front of him! He quickly knocked on his helmet, and a scorching light hit the worm's' lips'.
The worm immediately let out a strange cry. The Hero also felt the thing grabbing his leg let go. He quickly ran into the sword's light.
"Gu …" The worm stared at the light but didn't approach it. The Hero was sure that the creature didn't want to get close to the light, but … why?
The worm didn't leave. It kept staring at the Hero and the Monchi gathered around it as if it was competing to see who would move first.
The Hero believed that since there was night here, there would definitely be day. So, he felt that as long as he waited for day, the worm would leave.
But … how long would it take for day to arrive? The Hero remembered that the day had lasted for a long time. Would the night be as long? Amazing astronomy.
