"You're an idiot!"
Eirinn staggered backward. She watched as Fangzheng charged at Amelia with his greatsword. She couldn't help but growl angrily. As a hunter, Eirinn knew how powerful this monster was. In the history of Yanan, there were several people who turned into terrifying monsters due to excessive beastification.
The most famous one was the first Archbishop of the Church of Healing, Lawrence. When he led the exploration team deep into the underground ruins, he couldn't hold on any longer and turned into a terrifying monster. That was also the first case of a clergyman turning into a monster.
In that tragic battle, only one person survived. He killed the berserk Lawrence and brought his head back to the surface. As for the others, they were all killed by the berserk Lawrence.
After that, terrifying monsters with enormous bodies often appeared. Every time the church crusaded against these monsters, they suffered heavy losses. And now, that young man actually wanted to face such a monster alone?
If Fangzheng knew what Eirinn was thinking, he would definitely tell her that he was indeed a professional when it came to dealing with monsters like this!
"Roar …!"
Amelia let out a furious roar as she watched Fangzheng charging at her. She raised her enlarged palm and slammed it at Fangzheng. As for Fangzheng, he took advantage of the momentum and rolled to the side of the monster's leg. Following that, he stood up, gripped the greatsword in his hand tightly and slashed down heavily at the monster's hind leg.
"— — —!"
With the appearance of blood, the monster let out a shrill scream. It turned around, raised its right claw, and swung it down at Fangzheng with all its might. As for Fangzheng, he quickly jumped back after he succeeded in his attack, dodging the monster's claw attack. However, the monster's storm-like attacks clearly didn't stop there. After missing its attack, it immediately raised its hands and clenched them together. Then, it hammered down at Fangzheng in front of it!
"BOOM!!"
The monster's fists slammed heavily on the ground, and at the same time, Fangzheng rolled and dodged her attack. At the next moment, Fangzheng stomped his feet on the ground, lifted his greatsword, and leaped into the air. Fangzheng aimed at the monster's head and slashed!
"Ahhhhh!"
Fangzheng's series of attacks could be said to be so smooth that when his greatsword landed, the monster didn't even have time to react to what happened. She could only let out a painful howl instinctively. Then, the monster collapsed to the ground with a thud. However, Fangzheng didn't stop there. On the contrary, he quickly took a step back. The sword in his hand whistled as it tore through the air, stabbing at the monster's head once again.
"… How did this happen …"
Eirinn was stunned as she watched the battle unfold before her. She was certain that even at the peak of the Church's power, the Church would need to gather dozens of powerful Hunters to defeat such a gigantic monster. But now, this young man had beaten the monster to such a state all by himself?
More importantly, he was not hurt by the monster at all during this process?!
Just as he said, this outsider knows how to deal with these terrifying monsters. He is indeed a professional!
Where exactly did he come from?
In an instant, Eirinn couldn't help but feel curious. Even though people from all over the world gathered in Yanan, there was no lack of powerful warriors among them. It was the same for Eirinn. She came here in search of a cure for her illness and chose to stay because of the beast disaster. But even so, the enemies she faced before coming to Yanan were only humans apart from wild beasts in the forest.
Before that, she had never seen such a terrifying and gigantic monster!
But this outsider was obviously different. He seemed to be familiar with how to fight such a huge monster. As a battle expert, Eirinn could see that Fangzheng's every move had been integrated into his body's instincts.
The monster transformed from Amelia could easily annihilate an entire hunting team of the Church of Healing. But at this moment, it was like a husky. Other than being led by the nose by Fangzheng, it was almost harmless. It tried to attack the annoying enemy in front of it again and again, but Fangzheng was always able to dodge its attacks in the nick of time and seize the opportunity to counterattack.
At this moment, Amelia was exhausted. Fangzheng's greatsword slashed its body repeatedly. Blood flowed out from its body and its counterattacks were getting weaker and weaker. In the end, when the monster's attack missed, Fangzheng swung the greatsword in his hand and slashed its head. This time, the monster's seemingly tough head couldn't withstand Fangzheng's attack. It screamed and collapsed to the ground.
At the same time, Fangzheng felt a force entering his body through the weapon.
"Phew …"
Putting down the greatsword in his hand, Fangzheng heaved a sigh of relief. The battle just now reminded him of his training in the Black Soul World. At that time, he had to face all kinds of incomparably huge monsters. Some of them were even bigger than his entire body with just one hand. One slap was enough to turn Fangzheng into a pancake.
And this monster, frankly speaking, wasn't that difficult to deal with … Hmm?
Looking at the monster's corpse, Fangzheng suddenly frowned. He narrowed his eyes and carefully sized up the monster in front of him. Then, he walked to its side and looked at the monster's claws.
"What's wrong? Are you an outsider? "
At this moment, Eirinn, who was standing by the side, also walked over. She originally wanted to help, but after watching Fangzheng's battle, she consciously stood by the side as an audience. After all, Eirinn's weapons were only two daggers, and against such a huge monster … It was a little too much for her.
"No … I just feel that this thing is a little familiar, as if I've seen something similar somewhere before …"
Fangzheng touched his chin and carefully examined the monster before him. Although he had never seen this monster before, Fangzheng felt that some of its characteristics were very familiar. Of course, perhaps it was because the settings in many worlds were similar?
For example, the basic zombies in zombie movies and games were like mass produced in a factory. The only difference was whether they ran fast or slow …
Forget it, I guess I won't be able to find any answers in a short time.
Fangzheng shook his head and hid his doubts in his heart. Then, he turned around and saw Eirinn carefully taking out a golden watch from the monster's left claw.
"What's that?"
Fangzheng curiously glanced at the golden watch, but he didn't mind Eirinn's action of touching the corpse without permission. With this BOSS's poor appearance, it probably wouldn't drop anything good.
"This is the Archbishop's keepsake …"
Eirinn looked at the pocket watch in her hand with a complicated expression. Even when Amelia turned into a monster, her left hand was still tightly holding onto this pocket watch as if it was the most precious thing in her life.
"It seems that we won't be able to find any clues here."
Fangzheng only glanced at the pocket watch and quickly withdrew his gaze. To him, these trivial matters of the past were not important. The important thing was that the Archbishop, who should have been able to provide him with clues, died without saying a word. Before he died, he didn't even repent or say a few key words …
So, what should I do next?
