Looking into the distance, the mountain range was like a sleeping dragon lying in the direction that Li Jie and the others needed to go.
Originally, everyone only thought that the strange shape of these mountains was formed because of the special geographical conditions of Hell.
But when everyone moved in this direction and prepared to cross this mountain range, they found that this place was not as simple as they thought.
The first to discover the problem was Damon. The Steel Guardian Mech he controlled was in charge of scouting and patrolling.
Outside the first layer of scouting 50 kilometers away from everyone, the Steel Guardian's monitor detected the image and sent it back to Damon immediately.
"Guys, there may be some problems on the route ahead of us." Damon looked at the image displayed on his monitor and said with some surprise.
The second to sense it was Steel Wolf. His strong sense of smell had already smelled a strong smell of blood. Even if it was tens of kilometers away, even if others couldn't smell it.
Steel Wolf Logen's sense of smell made him feel like he was walking in a bloody slaughterhouse.
"The air is filled with a very strong smell of blood, the more we walk in this direction, the more obvious it is." Logen also expressed his own feeling.
"Well, what did you see, Damon?" Li Jie stopped and asked Damon. He didn't want to step into a dangerous area for no reason.
"A corpse. To be honest, I thought it was a mountain range. Until a mech was stretched to a high enough height for me to see the whole picture, "Frank said as he transmitted the image he received to the others.
A huge black corpse like a mountain was lying on the ground just like that.
Without accurate calculations, just by looking at it, this huge corpse was probably tens of kilometers long.
It was also more than ten kilometers wide. The image transmitted back was a little affected by the fluctuations of Hell's energy and was a little blurry.
But it was still barely distinguishable that this corpse was the image of a legendary dragon.
"Are you sure this is a corpse and not a sleeping dragon?" Li Jie felt his face twitch a little.
"Maybe there are still treasures under its body." Tony Stark laughed dryly.
"Can we take a detour? Whether it's alive or dead, I don't really want to pass by such a huge monster. "Li Jie asked Johnny.
"I'm afraid not. I can read part of the Vengeance Spirit's memories. But I can't read it completely. "Johnny shook his head.
"If we take a detour, I'm not confident that we can find another way to get to where we want to go."
Li Jie felt a toothache, and the people around him also focused on Li Jie, waiting for him to make a decision.
"Are you sure that thing is dead?" Li Jie asked Damon for confirmation.
After repeatedly getting affirmative answers, Li Jie finally decided to move forward in this direction. However, everyone needed to be fully prepared.
Of course, this precaution wasn't referring to fighting a monster of this size head-on. It was more about running away as soon as something went wrong.
The further they went in that direction, the more red soil there was on the ground. Moreover, the color had also become more vibrant red, unlike the dull dark red he had seen at the beginning.
When Li Jie and the others arrived next to the huge corpse, they were on tenterhooks. Only then did Li Jie realize that the mountain range he had seen when he first arrived in Hell was just an illusion.
The mountain range he thought was not a mountain range at all, but a corpse. Because of some visual deception, he mistakenly thought that he saw a mountain range.
In fact, he should have thought of it long ago. This barren and boring hell was surrounded by open plains, and there was only a protruding mountain range here. It was really too strange.
The closer they got, the clearer Li Jie could see. A huge dragon claw hung on the ground without any luster.
It looked like it was broken by someone, and the dragon's corpse was twisted in a strange and unreasonable angle. Li Jie told himself that it was very likely.
He originally thought that the trees growing on the top of the mountain were from hell, but now that he was standing under this huge corpse that covered the sky, Li Jie could barely see it clearly.
The things that he thought were trees were actually scales and flesh that were peeled off from the dragon's back. The places that looked like broken rocks and cliffs on the mountain range were all its pitch-black scales.
This dragon corpse covered the sky, it must have been an extremely powerful existence when it was alive. But now, it died here without any dignity, which did not match its status at all.
"I didn't think that the first thing we saw in hell would be a corpse. This thing is so f * cking big. "Tony Stark couldn't help but curse.
"Do we need to climb over this thing?" Peter Parker used spider silk to hang under Harry's glider.
"Looks like it. I guess it doesn't want us to do that. It doesn't seem like it was a friendly person when it was alive. "Li Jie tried to sound relaxed.
"It looks like it's been dead for a long time." The Mist Mage's expression was solemn.
"But the corpse doesn't have any signs of decay. It should have been a Demon God when it was alive. Only a God's body can remain immortal for a long time. Such a powerful God has fallen, but we don't know anything about it. "
Li Jie, who was piloting the other glider and was about to fly over the dragon corpse, heard Lan's words.
"Are you sure it's a Demon God?"
"Yes, although we can't confirm its identity. But it's at least a Demon God at the level of a Main God. There aren't many existences of this level in the entire universe. Even Mephithos was only a Demon God at the level of a Main God in terms of power. "Lan nodded with certainty.
"So what we're seeing now is the fall of an important person who was close to the level of a God?" Tony Stark used the equipment on his armor to scan the corpse.
Hank was carried by a mech and flew to the place where the flesh of the corpse was flipped open. He held various tools and was ready to start sampling and analysis.
The Mages could rely on magic to walk in the air, while the others who couldn't fly were all carried by the steel mechs and were ready to fly over. But no one wanted to use their own feet to step on this huge corpse.
"Wait, there seems to be signs of life." Damon had a new discovery.
On the other side of the corpse, a group of green-skinned humanoid creatures with goat horns and horseshoes were worshipping the corpse.
They seemed to be chanting, and the strong wind from Hell sent their voices into Li Jie's ears.
Although he couldn't understand what they were saying, Li Jie could hear the sorrow in their words.
"They're worshipping. They're praying that the God they believe in can be resurrected." The Mist Mage glanced at the worshipping creatures from afar.
"You can understand what they're saying?" Li Jie was curious.
"Traditional Demon Language is also a compulsory subject for Kamateki." Lan didn't explain further and just nodded.
Just as Li Jie discovered this group of strange creatures, the group of Hell creatures with goat horns and horseshoes also discovered Li Jie and the others. They angrily roared at Li Jie and the others.
"What do you think they're saying?" Li Jie turned around and looked at Lan.
