Chapter 23 - Mythical creature, sea giants!

Chapter 23 Mythical creature, sea giants!

The moon was dark, and the wind was strong. A strange sound suddenly came from the dark forest.

An ordinary person would have been scared out of their wits. Yang Xu had lived in the wildland for years and had seen many strange

scenes.

He did not show the slightest fear at this sudden turn of events.

Yang Xu put down his quill, stood up, picked up his spear, and went behind the curtain.

His expression was cold as he shouted towards the outside of the curtain, “Come in,”

Outside the tent, a pretty girl was pacing back and forth, her big, black eyes looking in the direction of the tent.

She was dressed in a modern style, with a pair of tight-fitting jeans and a plain white jacket.

Such an outfit would not be eye-catching if it were in a modern city. However, in this wildland, where there was almost no sign of human habitation, such an appearance could only be described as strange.

Hearing Yang Xu’s response, the girl revealed a devilish smile. Her rose petal-like lips opened slightly and emitted sound waves that were inaudible to the human ear.

The dark forest suddenly became lively.

In an instant, the dense forest was filled with countless ghostly figures heading toward the Great Xu nation’s military camp.

The young girl lifted the tent’s curtain. “Chị!”

A jade-white spear suddenly attacked. It carried an unstoppable momentum like a meteorite from outer space and instantly pierced through the girl’s plump chest. Fresh blood spurted out, dyeing the ground red!

The young girl’s delicate face was filled with shock and confusion.

She lowered her head to look at the spear that had pierced through her chest and looked at Yang Xu with a wronged expression as if she couldn’t believe that her brother would be so cruel to her. She reached out her slender arms to grab Yang Xu with trembling hands and sobbed, “Big brother, why?”

Yang Xu’s face was expressionless as he listened to his sister’s cries. His eyes were as cold as ice.

If it were a few years ago, he would have been frightened and nervous by the young girl’s grievance, and her appearance that was almost no different from his sister’s.

However, he had been tempered at this moment, and his heart was as hard as a stone!

A mere monster was showing off!

Yang Xu didn’t reply. He shook his wrist hard,

and the girl looked like she had been hit by a train. A hole appeared in her chest where the spear had pierced.

After receiving such a heavy blow, the light in the young girl’s eyes instantly became dim and lifeless. In an instant, she had already

lost her breath.

Yang Xu pulled back his spear, and the girl’s

body fell to the ground.

Looking at it again, it was no longer a human

but a detested and terrifying monster.

It looked like an ape, hairless, with gray-black scales and sharp claws that were

like daggers.

Its head was like a snake, with sharp fangs

and a mouth. The inch-long fangs gave people a great sense of oppression. Its bloody

mouth was even more exaggerated, and it

could swallow a person’s head instantly! Yang Xu’s expression was cold as he looked at

the monster.

mind-sucking monster!

The wildland was a very low-level world, and it was also one of the most common

monsters.

These monsters lived in groups and hunted in

groups of hundreds, only appearing at night.

Although they were not very intelligent, they had the extraordinary ability. They could see through the past of other creatures and transform into the form they desired most, luring other creatures to come to them on their own accord.

It was just like how this mind-grasping monster had transformed into Yang Xu’s sister and lured him to let his guard down outside the tent.

If Yang Xu had chosen to ignore the monster, the mind-control monster would not break into the tent and left quietly.

This was the law of their survival.

This monster was cautious and timid.

However, once the prey fell into their trap, the monster in charge of luring them would send out a signal that it had succeeded. The other heart catchers would rush out from the dark and devour the prey!

Yang Xu walked out of the tent after killing

the mind catcher.

The military camp stood on the edge of the

cliff, tens of meters away from the dense forest, with a wide view.

More than 100 heart-catching monsters came

out of the forest and gathered outside the military camp.

They had transformed into the familiar faces

of the soldiers of the Great Xu nation, and

they looked no different from the citizens of the Great Xu nation!

This move was an advantage to other beasts with no intelligence or low intelligence. It could make it difficult for the beasts to

distinguish between friend and foe, causing them to fall into chaos.

But this time, they were facing a group of

people!

“Swish”

Before the mind-sucking monsters could attack the military camp, sharp arrows tore through the air and fell from the sky, piercing through the heads of the mind-sucking monsters easily.

The arrow did not miss its target and instantly pierced through dozens of monsters.

The dead mind-sucking monster returned to its ugly form.

When the other monsters saw that the situation was not right, they all raised their heads and let out a roar undetectable by

human ears. Without any hesitation, they fled

into the dense forest behind them. However, Yang Xu had deliberately set up a

dead end. How could he let the mind-sucking monster escape so easily?

The moment the azure birds attacked, the

Qing Qiu foxes rushed out of the dark tent and struck the mind-sucking monsters outside the fence with their triangular blades. At the same time, the azure bird tribe had

already completed the second round of shooting. More than a hundred mind-sucking monsters outside the camp were killed in less than a

dozen seconds. Most of them were killed by the arrows of the azure bird tribe.

The battle was over. The soldiers of the Grear

Xu nation were calm as they skillfully cleaned up the battlefield.

The people of the azure bird tribe circled

above the military camp, looking into the distance to prevent any attacks. The Qing Qiu foxes collected all the corpses of the mind-sucking monsters and piled them in front of the camp, waiting for Yang Xu to deal

with them.

The mind-sucking monsters were low-level monsters that lived in groups. On the list of opponents for the soldiers of the Great Xu

nation, they were only slightly stronger than mice. They would not withstand a single blow if they saw through the mind-sucking monster’s moves. “Your Majesty.” After cleaning up the battlefield, Yun Xiao

descended from the sky with his longbow. He stood in front of Yang Xu and said respectfully.

It was a simple greeting without many words.

This was Yun Xiao’s style.

“Good job, ” Yang Xu nodded and smiled,

“Continue to be on guard.” The mind-sucking monster was cautious and

timid, and it would run away at the slightest

sign of danger.

The azure bird tribe had discovered the mind-sucking monster’s tracks, but they had intentionally hidden so that the monster would think they had succeeded. Because of the soldier’s trust in their king, they successfully ambushed them.

Yun Xiao placed his right arm in front of his

chest to show respect, then spread his wings and flew high.

Yang Xu walked out of the military camp

and

came to the mountain of corpses of the mind-sucking monsters. He opened his right hand, and an ancient bronze book appeared

out of thin air. “Absorb!”

The ancient bronze book emitted a harsh red

light, falling on the mountain of corpses. The corpses illuminated by the red light slowly fade away like snow that was melted by the sun. They were gone at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if they had never existed! In an instant, the mountain of corpses had disappeared, and only the strong smell of blood could prove that there had been an intense battle here!

After absorbing the monster’s energy, Yang Xu opened the ancient bronze book. [Lifeforce: 99600 points] Yang Xu nodded slightly and was quite

satisfied with the harvest this time. Absorbing a mind-sucking monster would give him about 10 points of life energy. He was 400 points away from activating the level 2 authority. He wondered what new species the level 2 authority would grant him. After killing the mind-sucking monster, soldiers returned to the tent again, and only a few members of the azure bird tribe continued to be on guard. The night was peaceful, and there were no

other attacks.

the

The next day, Yang Xu set off with his army

early.

Today’s journey was particularly smooth. Apart from encountering a few ferocious beasts that were not difficult to deal with and contributing 200 Life Points to Yang Xu, he did not encounter any more obstacles. Before night fell, the army had already arrived

at the west sea coast. They could hear the

surging sound of the waves hitting the cliffs. The military camp was much more

comfortable this time because there was a hidden camp on the coast where the Great Xu nation’s troops often stayed. The campsite was located in a cave by the sea.

Other than being a little damp, there was almost no problem. The cave was very spacious. Even if all 300 soldiers lived in the cave, it would not feel crowded.

Not only were there tents and houses that had

been set up, but there was also a certain amount of food reserve.

It saved a lot of time for the army as they did

not need to build a camp.

As night fell, the soldiers fell asleep early, but Yang Xu stood at the cave entrance cave and looked at the surging sea in the distance, unable to fall asleep.

He didn’t know why, but he had a vague

feeling that something was about to happen.

He couldn’t tell.

But it made people feel uneasy.

It was like the prelude to a storm, and the

heavy atmosphere made it hard for people to

breathe!

The depressing atmosphere reminded Yang

Xu of a very unpleasant memory, one of the

legends he had once witnessed.

Sea Giants!

It was a terrifying creature that lived in the vast ocean. It had a human-like upper body and a height of 100 meters that was like a

towering mountain!
