Although there were many magical beasts guarding the Soul Diamond, they were no match for Tang En at all.
Even if they couldn't use magic here, Tang En's physical fitness was there for all to see. He easily killed those guys.
"The treasure is in my hands!"
Tang En stepped on the Petrifying Lizard and touched the Soul Diamond. The next moment … a translucent stone giant … or rather, a mini stone giant, appeared in front of Tang En.
Tang En subconsciously retracted his hand. Due to its small size, the translucent mini stone giant's proportions were very strange. It looked like a cartoon version of a three-headed doll with big eyes. It was inexplicably cute.
It looked at Tang En and shook its stone arms as if trying to express something. However, it couldn't speak because it didn't have the ability to speak.
However, Tang En suddenly realized that the Titan stone giant seemed to have stopped moving. The shaking outside had stopped.
He frowned slightly and hesitated for a moment. Then, he grabbed Nola and shook her awake. "Stop sleeping. Let's see what it wants to say."
As a versatile translator, as long as that guy had intelligence, Nola would definitely be able to understand what it was trying to say.
"Hmm? Hmm! "
Nola rubbed her eyes and stretched. Then, with a flap of her wings, she flew over and began to communicate with the cartoon version of the stone giant with her special talent.
The whole process was silent.
The corner of Tang En's mouth twitched. He felt like he was watching two unknown creatures adjusting the frequency of their radio waves.
After a while, Nola turned her head and said, "Its self-awareness is so vague. It's like a newborn child, and its thoughts are very chaotic."
"You're no different from a child …" Tang En sighed. "The point is, what does it want to say?"
"I'll bite you!"
Nola turned her head and looked at the radio waves for a while. Then, she said, "It wants us to stop. We're hurting it."
"What?"
Tang En looked constipated. "It was clearly the one that almost wiped us out. Now it's acting pitiful!?"
After saying that, Tang En grabbed the Soul Diamond without hesitation.
The cute Stone Giant's soul immediately panicked.
Nola quickly said, "It said that this Soul Gem guard was created to guard the entrance. If we didn't hurt it, it wouldn't have attacked us."
"What a joke!"
Tang En was furious. "When did we touch it? Wasn't it the one who jumped out and attacked the contestants in the Demon Abyss competition? "
Nola conveyed Tang En's message. After a while, she turned her head and said innocently, "It said that its body is below. It's very, very long. This Stone Giant is just a puppet guard."
"… Below? Very, very long? "
Tang En's mouth twitched. "Why do I have a bad feeling about this?"
Nola pointed at her feet. "It's down here."
Below, very, very long. Tang En sucked in a breath of cold air. "If I'm not wrong, it's not talking about that Magic Dispelling Stone mine, right?"
After confirming, Nola nodded happily. "It's right. I'm so smart!"
Smart my ass!
Tang En groaned in pain. Damn it, could this world be any weirder? It was acceptable for Gnomes and Goblins to make nuclear bombs and strange World of Warcraft games. It was also acceptable for elemental creatures to have intelligence. But … but now even a Magic Dispelling Stone mine had turned into a spirit. What was this?!
Can't you let me mine in peace!?
A Magic Dispelling Stone mine that had turned into a spirit was hurting it. Tang En could roughly understand what was going on.
Previously, during the Abyss competition, they had only flown over it, so it did not react. But this time, due to Tang En's request, the contestants descended into the Abyss to mine for Magic Dispelling Stones. This had caused it pain — mining here was like digging flesh out of one's body. How could one not feel pain?
Although it was not as bad as digging flesh out of one's body, it was still like ants crawling onto one's body and taking a few bites. Of course, it was very unhappy. And so … this Titan Stone Giant appeared.
At this moment, Tang En suddenly came back to his senses. "Gate? You said it's guarding the gate? What gate? "
Tang En became inexplicably nervous. If it was the Gate of Chaos, then this was going to be a big problem.
Nola asked, then said helplessly, "Its consciousness is too vague. It can't express itself clearly, but it said that it can take us to see it."
Tang En rubbed his chin and thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
Outside, Lola, who was dismantling the Gundam with her bare hands, suddenly realized that the Titan Stone Giant had stopped moving. She immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Although she was not injured, facing such a huge enemy and not being able to use spells was a bit stressful.
"This little man is quite capable."
Lola was even more satisfied with Tang En.
Regardless of whether there was any ambiguity in her words, after the Titan Stone Giant stopped attacking, the adventurers in the distance also breathed a sigh of relief. Uncle Depp, Danny Jr. and Locke had already brought people down. As for Ultraman, he was unlucky. He was hit by the first wave of rocks and had to use the Return Crystal to return to Ellington.
Mongo Kahn suddenly said, "That guy seems to have stopped moving."
Kahn said in a deep voice, "After that round of terrible bombardment, this Titan Stone Giant is probably on the verge of collapse. Then, Lord Tang En and the Dark Elf Queen — the former Dark Elf Queen — personally took action, so it's not surprising that they killed it. After all, this Titan Stone Giant is terrifying because of its huge size. When it comes to real combat power, it's not that strong."
Ursa shrugged. "If it's outside, the commander can quickly finish it off with all his firepower, right?"
"More or less. Although it won't be that easy, at least we won't lose."
Kahn nodded and sighed deeply.
Although Tang En's hot air balloon tactic only lasted for a short while, it brought a huge shock to everyone present. This tactic would probably be the power that every battlefield commander and even the king of every country would pursue in the future.
The sky that belonged to the strong would soon belong to the mortals again.
Boom … Boom …
"The Stone Giant moved again!"
"It — Huh!? Why did it turn around and leave!? "
"The Dark Elf Queen and Lord Tang En are still on it, right?"
"What's going on?"
Lola also did not understand what was going on, and looked at Tang En with a blank expression.
"That's why this Stone Giant has no soul. It's like a war puppet. It's being controlled by the Demonic Removal Stone mine to activate its defense."
"The Demonic Removal Stone mine …"
Lola looked at Tang En worriedly. "Dear, did you hit your head?"
Tang En covered his face and sighed. "I knew I would be treated as a lunatic … See for yourself."
With that, a translucent cartoon version of the Stone Giant appeared beside him.
"This is … a Stone Elemental? No, a Stone Giant? A mini Stone Giant? "
"No, to be precise, it's the aggregation of the Demonic Removal Stone mine's soul consciousness. This mine under the Demonic Abyss … has its own consciousness."
"… Dear, are you joking with me?"
Even the Dark Elf Queen found it inconceivable that a mine had gained consciousness!
"Where would I find the time to do that?"
After Tang En explained the cause and effect, Lola was speechless. After spending so much effort and sacrificing so many people, it was all because they hurt it while mining?
Are you kidding me?
The Titan Stone Giant rumbled forward and soon brought Tang En and the others to the depths of the Demonic Abyss. Then, the Titan Stone Giant crashed into a cliff.
"Eh?!"
Tang En subconsciously tightened his grip on Lola. Only then did he realize that the cliff that looked completely real was actually an illusion!
"Hmm?! This place … "
Lola suddenly frowned and her face became very pale.
Tang En looked carefully and was shocked. "What the hell is this place?!"
Behind the Wall of Illusions was an empty space. Above the white ground was a blackish-purple Teleportation Gate with a diameter of a hundred meters. One could vaguely see a distorted image on the other side of the Teleportation Gate, a pitch-black sky, a burning earth …
Lola's heart tightened. "The Abyss of Purgatory?!"
The portal radiated the power of Purgatory. With the portal as the center, blackish-purple crystals spread out on the surrounding walls. The blackish-purple crystals exuded a very strong aura of Purgatory. Ordinary creatures would probably fall into a bloodthirsty frenzy if they inhaled even a little.
However, when these blackish-purple Purgatory Crystals spread out, they were blocked by a dense number of Magic Dispelling Stones, sealing all the aura of Purgatory here.
At this time, a Purgatory creature with green flames all over its body suddenly rushed out of the portal. As soon as the Purgatory creature landed, it noticed Tang En and Lola. The next moment, it screamed and rushed toward them. However, on the way, the power in its body was rapidly draining away. In the blink of an eye, the demonic flames on its body were extinguished. Then, the Titan Stone Giant stepped on it and directly stomped it into meat paste.
Only then did Tang En notice that the thick layer of white on the surrounding ground was not rock at all, but the bones of the Purgatory creature!
"Demon …"
Lola's face turned even uglier.
Tang En was stunned. "How do you know it's a demon and not a devil?"
Lola sighed. "Devils aren't so brainless. They're the creations of the God of Darkness Apophis and live in Purgatory. Although they're full of aggression and destruction, they're still creatures of order in the end. If this portal has been open for many years and no Purgatory creature has ever returned, the devils won't easily try to enter here.
"But demons are different. So far, the records say that it's all demons that have caused great damage to Prandal. They're filled with a crazy obsession to destroy everything …"
"So this is the gate it's guarding …"
In the depths of the Demonic Abyss, close to Shalhera, there was actually a huge portal that led directly to the Abyss of Purgatory. This was obviously not good news for the dark elves …
