Hao Ren and the rest could not react as they watched the Pope's figure gradually disappear into thin air. It was not until the last glimmer completely dissipated that Lily muttered, "What did the old man mean?"
Vivian shook her head and said, "I don't know … But our target is just ahead."
They could vaguely see a door at the end of the corridor, and they came to the door unimpeded. Hao Ren saw that the door was huge and magnificent, and different from the other doors in the spaceship. Its solemn black surface was etched with strange patterns, and there were two columns on both sides of the door that looked purely decorative. These things seemed to indicate that there was a special place behind the door. Nangong Wudi squinted and carefully looked around. In the vision of the Hunter's Spirit Vision, the place seemed very calm.
"It's safe." The old hunter nodded to Hao Ren.
Hao Ren stepped forward and pushed the black door. He felt that this thing should be locked by some kind of mechanism, so he was hesitating if he should use some explosives to blow it up. But just as he pressed his hand on it, the door opened automatically as if it had sensed him.
Everyone saw this and immediately became alert, then carefully stepped into the space behind the door. As soon as they stepped through the door, they felt their footsteps sink, and at the same time, their breathing became normal. Hao Ren turned his head and saw a faint film covering the previous door. "The gravity and artificial atmosphere of this place seem to be operating normally."
"This place is huge," Lily looked around in surprise. "Just looking at it makes me dizzy."
Behind the door was an unusually vast rectangular hall. Things built by the giants were already abnormally huge, and this place was so huge that it almost made people wonder if they had come to an outdoor open space. They saw neat rows of human-shaped sculptures on both sides of the long hall. The 20-meter-tall sculptures were obviously based on giants, supplemented with a certain degree of artistic exaggeration. Between the giant sculptures, there was a long curtain hanging down from the ceiling of the hall. The curtain was painted with chaotic dark red patterns, and on the ceiling of the long hall were various patterns made of lights. Although the meaning of the patterns could not be seen, Hao Ren inexplicably thought of the icons of the Disciples of Glory.
The decoration and atmosphere of this place were a little unexpected. It did not look like a cabin that should be on a spaceship, but more like a sacred place of some secret religion. Vivian was surprised and exclaimed, "These giants are quite artistic … I didn't expect them to be able to make such a place before they became brain monsters."
But Hao Ren's attention was not on the sculptures and decorations because he saw a huge black chair at the front of the long hall, and a giant was sitting on it with his back facing everyone. He did not know if he was dead or alive. The scene in front of him reminded him of a scene from a fairy tale: a group of humans mistakenly entered a giant's castle, and everything around them was so huge, and in front of them was the giant's throne.
Just as he thought of the throne, he saw the giant on the "throne" suddenly moved, and then slowly stood up.
Everyone was shocked and immediately put up their guard. The giant slowly walked down from the throne and turned to look at the uninvited guests in the hall. He was more than ten meters tall, and his skin was dark red. He was wearing an old, tattered uniform of unknown material. The giant held a strange long staff in his hand, and he used the long staff to support his body. He looked at the uninvited guests with eyes full of hatred, and although his expression did not show it — anger was spreading in his eyes.
"Then die." The giant only said these four words, and then he raised his long staff and pointed it at Hao Ren and his team. A huge plasma arc instantly hit Hao Ren's shield, and the jumping electric light almost affected the people around him. Everyone immediately dodged and hit the giant with their long-prepared attacks. Lily jumped out and shouted, "What happened to the brain? Why does this one have a body?! "
"I don't know what's going on!" Hao Ren was also confused. He waved his long spear to guide the giant's electric arc to the ground next to him and shouted, "Logically speaking, this is the brain monster we are looking for … Damn it, stop fighting, can't you just talk?!"
Hao Ren's last words were shouted at the giant. He realized that the giant in front of him could talk, and although his attitude did not seem friendly, it seemed more likely to communicate than the silent brain monster, so he decided to try to talk to the giant. And another important reason was that he found that the protective crystal had a different effect against the giant and the brain monster — against the brain monster, the crystal could directly paralyze the opponent, but against the giant, it only had the effect of blocking mental attacks, and the giant did not show any signs of injury. In this unexpected situation, he could only shout and hope that the situation would change.
Everyone's attacks burst into flashes around the giant, and some kind of mental shield blocked most of the damage, and in order to capture the opponent alive, no one on Hao Ren's side dared to really attack. The giant seemed to realize this, and after hearing Hao Ren's shout, he angrily responded, "What do you mean by this? Are you going to slowly humiliate me?! "
"I just want to have a good talk with you!" Hao Ren jumped to avoid the electric arcs around him. "We are from another universe, and we are confused about the situation here! We just want to know why you are so obsessed with destroying the world … Hey, you really don't want to stop? "
"There's no point in talking." The giant slammed his staff on the ground and waved his other hand in the air. His powerful spiritual energy created a ball of light in the air that looked like a lightning storm. He pushed the light towards the crowd. "I'd rather die in battle than compromise with my unfilial son!"
Hao Ren gritted his teeth and turned to look at the others. "There's no other way, we can only take him down first — take it easy, we need to capture him alive!"
The electric light smashed down, and a large lightning bolt surged on the ground, but a few figures dodged the electric light at the last moment and rushed towards the giant figure at the end of the long hall from all directions.
Lily waved her Frostfire Claws, like a hungry dog … or a hungry wolf pouncing on its prey, leaping ten meters into the air and slamming heavily on the mental shield around the giant. Her silver-white hair flew in the air under the impact. She ignored the burning sensation of the mental shield, but continued to growl and use her claws to cut the seemingly thin barrier, trying to destroy the enemy's defense with brute force. Vivian's swarm of bats also rushed up at the same time, wrapped in ice and lightning, and piled up on the giant's shield, almost like mud burying the enemy. Y 'zaks's fist and Nangong Wudi's large crossbow quickly joined the attack, and Hao Ren raised his spear to fill the last gap in the encirclement.
Under the siege, the giant roared again and again, constantly waving his arms as if trying to drive away the "small" enemies around him. However, his strength was no match for so many masters, and coupled with the injuries he suffered when the spaceship exploded, his strength was weakening at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Vivian looked at this scene and suddenly remembered the Mythological Era deep in her memory, when the last pure-blooded thunder giant was besieged to death by a group of humans in this situation.
She shook her head to get rid of this random thought. The giant finally exhausted his strength, and his mental shield shattered. After everyone dodged, the giant's huge body, more than ten meters tall, fell down like a landslide. But at the last moment, he used the long staff in his hand to support himself, and struggled to maintain his posture, as if he would rather die than fall in front of this group of people.
"Will he suddenly self-destruct?" Hao Ren gasped and muttered worriedly.
As soon as his voice trailed off, he found that a layer of bright electric light suddenly appeared on the giant's body, and the powerful energy reaction caused the surrounding air to distort and heat up.
But Y 'zaks made his move at this critical moment, a large number of dark runes spread out from the giant's feet, quickly suppressing the last trace of the latter's strength.
Everyone's eyes fell on him, and Hao Ren waved his hand helplessly. "Don't blame me for jinxing … at least it has an early warning effect …"
After finding that no one agreed with him, Hao Ren could only cough twice in boredom, turned to the giant and said, "Well, now we can talk."
