The size of the horse-faced lizard is more than six times that of the Silver Flower of Firetree, and the size of a normal human is just a leaf on the Silver Flower of Firetree.
But such a huge horse-faced lizard was entangled by a tongue, and after struggling for a moment, it was motionless like a corpse.
From the struggle to the stillness, was it three seconds or two seconds?
In less than a second, the horse-faced lizard strangely stopped struggling. However, its body did not fall into the clouds. Instead, it was held in the air by the tender green tongue. It was obvious how powerful the soft tongue was.
Looking at this sudden scene, everyone, including Law, felt like they were in an ice cellar.
For them, the horse-faced lizard is located in the trunk of the tree at a height of 10,000 meters, and its comprehensive strength is certainly far better than the nine-headed bird. It is definitely an existence that the Silver Flower of Firetree can't compete with.
However, a certain creature living above the clouds, just sticking out a tongue, made the horse-faced lizard lose its resistance, and with the strength of the tongue alone, it can hold such a huge horse-faced lizard.
You know, the tongue is one of the weaker parts of the biological body structure, but the tongue of this creature has such strong power, it is hard to imagine how powerful the limbs outside the tongue are.
In the central control room, everyone was stiff, like the Silver Flower of Firetree suspended in the air.
Their line of sight followed the tongue of the horse-faced lizard and moved forward, falling somewhere on the tree trunk through the clouds, and then they saw the owner of the tongue.
The first thing that entered his eyes was the bloody mouth with its tongue sticking out. The upper and lower jaws were covered with sharp teeth that were like a forest. Even the mouth area that led to the throat was covered with thorny sarcomas that were densely packed, causing one's body to feel cold.
Just the mouth alone occupied half of the entire head, and the remaining face area was more than half occupied by a pair of eyes.
The eyeballs in the eyes protruded severely and twisted irregularly, no different from the eyes of a chameleon.
If you look at the tongue and eyes alone, there is no doubt that they are the appearance characteristics of a chameleon.
However, this creature is not a chameleon, but a giant python. On its snake body coiled around the tree trunk, you can see the characteristics of folded wings.
The head of a chameleon and the body of a giant python combine to form this monster that can kill the horse-faced lizard in seconds, and it uses its tongue to kill its prey, and it is very likely to be a tongue containing neurotoxin.
Moreover, the effect is strong enough to explode with toxicity.
This can be seen from the time the horse-faced lizard struggled.
"Shua!"
The tongue that wrapped around the horse-faced lizard paused for a moment and then retracted.
In terms of length, it is estimated to be more than 300 meters long, so in the process of retraction, it formed an extremely impactful visual sensation.
The giant python's tongue retracted very quickly. In less than a moment, it had pulled the motionless horse-faced lizard in front of its mouth. Then, its open mouth suddenly closed.
Kacha!
The horse-faced lizard's body was immediately bitten in half by its sharp teeth.
The upper body was sent into the mouth along with the tongue, and the lower body fell into the clouds with a rain of blood.
The mouth of the giant python made a rapid chewing action. At the same time, the snake tail entrenched below sprang out like lightning and accurately wrapped around the lower body of the falling horse-faced lizard. It stopped steadily in the air, letting the blood flow down freely.
"…"
In the central control room, everyone silently watched the visual explosion of eating. So much so that from rushing out of the clouds to now, they only glanced at the canopy of the world tree. After that, their eyes were fixed on the horse-faced lizard and the chameleon python, unable to move away for half a second.
Shock? Or fear?
No one can say for sure … Or both.
What appeared in front of them was not only the cruelty of this unique ecosystem, but also a sense of powerlessness that human beings can't fight against nature.
They were like antmen, lucky enough to sit in a palm-sized model plane, and then fly into the human world. While marveling at the strength of human beings, they suddenly saw a human being being swallowed by a giant crocodile in two mouthfuls.
No solution.
The world tree above the clouds is really a place that humans can only see from a distance. If you touch it rashly, you will only be treated as a mosquito and then be swatted to death.
As Nitro said, it's too huge … an adjective with almost no upper limit.
Law resisted the shock in his heart and looked away with difficulty. He avoided the giant python that was swallowing the horse-faced lizard and turned to look at other places on the trunk.
His eyes slowly went up, passing over monster-level creatures.
If the nine-headed bird is a B-level monster, then the horse-faced lizard is an A-level monster. They are creatures that live under the clouds.
The monsters above the clouds, with the giant python with a chameleon head as the standard, are all S-level monsters, and even above S-level monsters, which are the same level as the Rock Island Crab, one of the overlords of the land.
In a sense, the World Tree, which could support so many monsters without moving, was probably the most terrifying existence.
His eyes swept over these S-level monsters that are difficult to describe in words, and then, once again, he saw the huge dense canopy that blocked the sun.
The ever-pervasive light source was perfectly isolated by the canopy, and instead, it cast a large shadow above the clouds.
Even the light source can be perfectly isolated. Naturally, it is impossible to see through the branches and leaves to see the situation above the canopy.
What can be seen is the motionless canopy in the windless environment. No, to be precise, the wind can't shake the canopy, even a leaf can't shake it.
In strong contrast to the motionless canopy, there is a rainbow light that shuttles between the branches and leaves. It seems to be the light that has been transformed by vitality, having the color of the rainbow.
There is a flowing rainbow light, and there is also a motionless rainbow light, like a rainbow bridge between the branches.
What a majestic telekinesis …
Looking at the torrent of telekinesis intertwined between the canopy, Law was speechless. He had a feeling of being in the universe and deeply felt his own insignificance.
This is the peak of the Dark Continent … It is undoubtedly a fool's dream to climb the world tree by relying on manpower alone.
Of course, if there is no existence of these monsters, there may be a glimmer of possibility, but it must be done with the help of some external tools, such as … oxygen algae.
"Red Shadow, retreat a little further."
The terrifying creatures entrenched on the tree made Law compromise again.
The Red Shadow didn't say anything, but did as he was told, controlling the Silver Flower of the Flaming Tree to move away from the world tree.
The giant python that killed the horse-faced lizard with its tongue was just one of the many monsters, and none of them were monsters that the Silver Flower of the Flaming Tree could resist.
If it was a large ancient relic like the flying castle, it may have the power to fight. Unfortunately, the Silver Flower of the Flaming Tree wasn't designed with weapons in mind. The only commendable feature may be its mobility.
When the Silver Flower of the Flaming Tree retreated hundreds of meters, the group of monsters entrenched on the tree suddenly became restless.
