In the arena, countless maggot-men stood up from the mountain of corpses.
Some of them were similar to ordinary people, except that they were blood-red or pitch-black. However, some of them were very different in size. Not only were they more than ten times taller than a human, they also had all kinds of sharp teeth, horns, long noses, and thorny arms. Some of them even had the appearance of monsters and did not look like humans at all. They looked disgusting and terrifying.
Thousands of maggot-men parasitized the mountain of corpses and matured. Then, under the command of the leader of the five evildoers, 'Poison Maggot', they surged out violently.
They quickly rushed to various parts of the Sky Suspending Mothership.
They searched for survivors who might be hiding.
Very soon, the survivors hiding in the secret rooms were discovered by the maggot-men, who had a keen sense of smell. They surrounded and attacked them, or gathered their strength to break in and tear the pitiful survivors apart …
Spotted Duck and Grasshopper were running frantically. They were running in a panic, and a large group of maggot-men were chasing closely behind them.
They were one of the survivors who had been found by the maggot-men.
Yue Yang, who originally had the ability to protect them, had already left the cabin with Raven and the Bloody Giant Pelican, who were heavily injured but had regained the power to use the Ancient Artifact Fragment. They went to welcome the three pirate bosses, Winged Tiger, Wind Eagle, and Fiery Bird. Although he had easily defeated Hungry Ghost and sealed him in the Demon Subduing Tower, it did not mean that Yue Yang would let his guard down. Hungry Ghost's strength was only one of the weakest of the five evildoers. He was not as strong as Hellfire and Spectre, and his intelligence was not as good as the flying corpses and Poison Maggot. Other than his perverted hobbies and vicious heart, Hungry Ghost could only be ranked at the bottom of the five evildoers.
As for an evil expert like him who could easily defeat Raven and Pelican, he was just a small pawn of the eight Godly Kingdoms. Not to mention the eight Godly Masters, he was not even worth a fart when compared to the various marshals who had the strength of a Godly General!
The enemy of my enemy is my ally.
Regardless of his considerations or the need to conceal his identity, Yue Yang felt that rescuing Winged Tiger, Wind Eagle, and Fiery Bird was a good thing.
Before he had a clear understanding of the eight great Divine Masters' strength, Yue Yang did not want them to focus all their attention on him.
Unless there was no other way, he wanted to keep a low profile and explore the Outer Mountains.
Once he had obtained all the information on Outer Mountain, he would challenge him again.
It's not too late!
"Winged Tiger, Wind Eagle, and Fiery Bird are really being held up by the Griffin Marshal, the Golden Condor General, and Mao Po Di's envoy?" Yue Yang had a bad premonition. He felt that things weren't that simple. Although Yue Yang's senses were usually far from Princess Sissi's, who possessed the Six Records Inherent Skill, his battlefield intuition and judgment ability were the highest in battle. He was actually on par with Princess Sissi, and even surpassed her at certain moments.
"We've seen the five great evildoers. It can't be them. Other than them, who else could it be?" Pelican retorted with a buzzing voice. Until now, he still could not accept the fact that this newbie was a super expert and had saved him.
"If the one behind the five great evildoers is here, then things will become very bad." Raven sighed worriedly as he flew forward.
"Isn't it Xi Shen Nation's Left Marshal, Gu Gu? He has always been at odds with Griffin and Golden Condor. As long as he appears here, Griffin and Golden Condor will definitely be suspicious. They might even attack Gu Gu directly! " Pelican might look like a boorish person on the outside, and he usually did things rashly and impulsively. However, at critical moments, he could be trusted. He was a boorish person who was muddle-headed and astute when it came to important matters. On the surface, with his impulsive personality and low intelligence, it was impossible for him to accept the fact that a newbie like Yue Yang had saved his life. Raven was originally very worried, but in reality, when Pelican opened his eyes and saw the God Destroyer Secret Gold Heavy Armor that Yue Yang was wearing, he was secretly convinced. However, his mouth was still unconvinced.
"That may be the case, but the truth is unlikely to be reversed." Raven felt that the direction of the situation would only worsen and not turn for the better.
"Winged Tiger, Wind Eagle, and Fiery Bird's three bosses won't be defeated that easily. Perhaps they are rushing over to look for us. Once we meet up with the three bosses, we will kill our way out! " Pelican maintained his optimism. This was also his personality. He would always think of everything on the bright side.
"Let's hope so." Raven wasn't an optimist and couldn't be that optimistic.
"There's a commotion!" Yue Yang sensed a commotion in front of him.
When the three of them stopped and made some preparations, they saw countless maggot-men swarming out of the passageway in the spaceship, filling up the entire passageway. Many maggot-men couldn't move on the floor, so they climbed to the ceiling or the two sides of the passageway, increasing their speed as they chased after them.
In front of these maggot-men, there were a few soldiers and merchants who were scared out of their wits as they scrambled forward to escape.
Slightly slower.
They turned into countless pieces of flesh and blood as they were devoured in an instant.
The remaining two soldiers didn't have the courage to resist. Even though they were holding onto their weapons, they absolutely didn't dare to turn back and fight. They ran for their lives, turning from another passageway and running straight towards Yue Yang.
Raven originally didn't want to care about these survivors because he couldn't protect himself.
He couldn't care about others.
However, in the crowd of survivors, he saw a mother and daughter with tears streaming down their faces. They were lagging behind the group … There was a maggot-man with a bone hook on its back that looked like a scorpion tail. It was laughing sinisterly as it stabbed the mother and daughter with its bone hook, as if it wanted to strangle both of them with its tail. The mother used all her strength to dodge left and right. Even though she was already exhausted, she didn't give up. She desperately protected her daughter in her arms and ran forward.
"…" Raven's expression changed. He wanted to fly forward and save the mother and daughter who were about to fall into the mouth of the maggot-man.
"Blackleaf, don't do such a stupid thing!" Pelican hurriedly stopped him.
"Get out of my way." Raven was furious because he saw that because of Pelican's obstruction, he couldn't save her in time. The maggot-man with the long tail instantly pierced through the young mother's body, piercing through her heart from the back and coming out from the front of her abdomen.
That tail even slashed forcefully.
The chest and abdomen of the young mother were completely cut open, and bloody internal organs splattered on the ground.
No one dared to stop or turn back to save the mother and daughter. When the soldiers and merchants saw Yue Yang and the other two, they rushed over as if they had been given a new life, seeking the protection of the strong. When Raven was about to fly forward and save the daughter who was still under the mother's protection, Pelican once again blocked his way with his hill-like body.
Pelican grabbed a corner of Raven's cloak and shouted loudly, "The fifty to sixty thousand people on the ship are all dead. How many can you save? Even if you save her now, can you protect her? There are many stronger enemies in front of us. Even we might not be able to deal with them. How can a child survive? If you save her now, she will only live a little longer. If you insist on doing this, it will only increase her pain. Blackleaf, you should be more rational. Now is not the time to do this. You are smarter than me. You should understand these principles better than me! "
Raven roared in pain, "Back then, Winged Tiger also did this. He saved me from death. Without him, I wouldn't be who I am today! Ask him why he didn't act rationally back then! "
The young mother, who was seriously injured and on the verge of death, held her daughter with her hands and tried to prevent the maggot-man's tail from piercing her daughter.
She lifted her precious baby high in the air.
Even though she knew it was impossible to save her daughter.
Being able to protect her daughter for one more second was also her biggest wish …
Seeing this, Raven almost burst into tears, "Mom! Back then, my mom also protected me like this. I, Blackleaf, can't just stand by and watch. Saving her is saving myself and fulfilling my mom's wish! Santon, get out of my way! "
He shook his cloak with all his strength and directly shook off Pelican's huge body.
Like a bird flying across the night sky.
Raven's body movement technique was extremely fast, and he directly pounced on the mother and daughter.
However, it was too late … The long-tailed maggot-man had already used its tail to drag the weak young mother in front of it. Its sharp claws were raised high, and before Raven could come to her rescue, it smiled cruelly and slammed down heavily. It was ready to destroy the baby that the young mother was desperately protecting in front of Raven!
"No …" Raven cried in despair. It was as if he could see his young self being killed because he couldn't be saved.
"Hehehe!" The maggot-man seemed to enjoy the enemy's despair and pain.
Its sharp claws slammed down heavily.
However, the change of events was beyond everyone's expectations. The sharp claws that could easily cut the little girl into pieces not only didn't cause any damage, but also fell to the ground with a crack.
The young mother, who had closed her eyes and was waiting for death, opened her weak eyes and saw a man in heavy armor standing in front of her. His body was emitting a mysterious glow, so peaceful and so warm … The young mother couldn't help but hand over the baby in her hand. She couldn't help but ask with tears of joy, "Are you the legendary Lord God? I beg you, have mercy on my daughter, please give her a way to live! Although she came from a humble background, this isn't her fault … "
Yue Yang reached out and took the little girl who had fainted from shock.
He nodded at the young mother who was about to die. "You are a great mother. Because of your protection, your daughter will be saved. It's not me, but you yourself who gave your daughter a new life!"
"If you don't mind, I'm willing to raise her as my daughter." Raven flew over and stood beside Yue Yang, giving the young mother a guarantee. At the same time, he waved his cloak and punched the long-tailed maggot-man into meat paste. When the maggot-men saw such a powerhouse appear, they didn't dare to act rashly. They retreated and prepared to join forces to attack again.
"Thank you!" The young mother breathed her last with a look of relief. Although she was dead, she no longer had any worries in her heart. She died unusually peacefully.
"Raven, you're crazy. Do you think you can stop the enemy by bringing a little girl? Give her to those soldiers and let them take her away. At most, we can only clean up this group of monsters for them! " Pelican felt that if he brought a little girl with him, she would be a huge burden. If he really insisted on doing this, not only would he not be able to save her in the end, but everyone would also be trapped.
"No, to me, she is me. I absolutely can't abandon her. Otherwise, I'll be abandoning my past self, and I'll be letting down my mother who risked her life to protect me!" Raven flatly refused and took the little girl in Yue Yang's arms, gently hugging her in his arms.
"You're simply unreasonable!" Pelican angrily grabbed the collar of Raven's clothes and roared, "These are completely different things, and now is not the time for you to be willful! Are you still going to save her? "
"Go, but you must bring her with you." Raven gently wiped away the tears on the face of the unconscious little girl.
"I'm so angry!" Pelican was furious. He raised his fist and punched his own chest, as if he regretted having a friend like Raven.
Yue Yang suddenly coughed.
He wanted to remind the two of them not to forget his existence.
When Pelican and Raven looked over, Yue Yang raised his right hand and summoned his grimoire. He smiled at the two of them and said, "If you don't mind, I can put her inside for a while. Don't worry, I definitely won't snatch your daughter away from you."
Seeing this scene, Pelican and Raven didn't reveal a happy expression because the problem was solved. Instead, their faces were filled with shock, "You, you actually have a grimoire? This is the legendary grimoire, right? "
Yue Yang was speechless.
The legendary grimoire? Could it be that no one in the Outer Mountains had a grimoire?
