Chapter 160 Battle of Giants
Chapter 160 Battle of Giants
As the body of the cannibal monk gradually disintegrated, he began to devour the corpses around him. Streams of black air emanated from his body, surrounding the corpses one by one. Under the influence of the black air, the corpses began to slowly disappear and were absorbed into the body of the cannibal monk.
This scene made Gus feel very surprised and uneasy. He didn't know why the cannibal monk suddenly devoured the corpse, but he felt that this black energy was very unusual and could pose a threat to him and his companions at any time.
"Everyone be careful, this man-eating monk seems to still have some strength left." Gus reminded his companions loudly, while also preparing for the response.
However, the cannibal monk did not attack Gus and his companions. He continued to devour the corpses around him, seemingly with a strong purpose, only targeting those corpses without life force, seemingly posing no threat to living things.
"What's going on?" Gus was very confused. He didn't understand why the man-eating monk suddenly became like this.
At this moment, Darwin on the side suddenly exclaimed and pointed at the cannibal monk. Gus and his companions looked in the direction of Darwin's finger and found that the cannibal monk's body had undergone a huge change at some point. The cannibal monk's body gradually swelled up, and streams of black air emanated from his body. His body became larger and larger, and eventually turned into a black giant beast tens of meters tall.
This black beast exudes a powerful aura that makes people feel palpitations and fear. Its body is covered with black scales, which looks very ferocious and terrifying.
"What is this?" Gus and others were shocked by the appearance of this black giant.
"This is Gluttonus, an extremely powerful beast with unparalleled recovery and attack power. He is almost immortal." I didn't expect Athena to know something about this creature.
"Be careful, it's a terrifying creature that feeds on the power of discipline and is immortal. Do you still want to leave now?" Facing this gluttonous beast that looked like a toad, Athena actually showed a hint of fear in her eyes.
"Tasli, Gulis, take everyone and leave here immediately. It's best to capture the enemy's stronghold for me." Alpha looked at Tasli without any doubt.
"Darwin, Gus, stay with me and stop the enemy." The three people who stayed behind all had special transformation abilities and were not going to die.
"Alpha, I must remind you that the Gluttony is a creature that is mutually exclusive with the Discipline Knight. Once we are defeated, it will gain our power, and similarly, we will also gain its ability.
However, once we gain power in this way, we can no longer gain power through discipline. You have to think it through." Athena preferred not to take action for a reason.
"I understand. I will let them deliver the final blow." Without further ado, Alpha could only let everyone go first.
After the black beast appeared, Gus and his companions were in a huge crisis. The glutton was extremely aggressive and destructive, and its appearance made Gus and his companions feel terrified. Because they knew that if they didn't act quickly, they would most likely be wiped out by the beast.
"Go!" Tasli gave a loud order and led her companions to quickly escape from the attack range of the giant beast.
The gluttonous beast did not give them a chance to escape. It quickly rushed towards the fleeing crowd, opened its bloody mouth, and devoured them.
However, he was blocked by Gus. At the same time, Darwin saw this scene and immediately waved the staff in his hand, releasing a powerful magic attack towards the head of the glutton.
The glutton was not hit by the magic attack. It quickly turned its body to avoid Darwin's attack. Then, it opened its mouth again and attacked Gus.
Under Gus's obstruction, the knights retreated one after another, and Darwin used his magic staff to continuously attack the glutton. However, the glutton was extremely powerful, and its attack and defense power were amazing.
"Alpha, if you can't destroy it, you can use your demonic power, which is the nemesis of all the power of discipline." Athena suddenly gave Alpha a secret. Obviously, Athena knew Alpha's demonic right hand very well.
Gus and Darwin's attack did not make the Gluttonus give up. On the contrary, the terrible monster seemed to become even more angry, roaring and rushing towards them at an amazing speed.
When faced with such a powerful enemy, Gus and Darwin began to realize the difficulties they faced and that they needed more support to defeat this terrible monster.
Alpha recalled Athena's words in his mind. He knew that his demonic power was the nemesis of all disciplined abilities. But he also knew that using this power could bring endless consequences, which could cause him to lose control, turn into a demon, and eventually lose his humanity. Alpha began to hesitate, not knowing whether he should take this risk.
"Stop!" Gus's muscles were tense, but he still couldn't stop the glutton. Gus's legs were deeply inserted into the ground, but his body was still pushed by the glutton, moving forward at a very fast speed.
With a loud bang, his body was pressed into the rock by the glutton's tongue. This time, the damage was more serious, and it must have penetrated two meters underground.
The Glutton's attack did not end. Its huge tongue was extremely sticky and it stuck to Gus's body and pulled him out of the tunnel, smashing him hard on the ground. After five or six times, Gus stopped reacting and the Glutton stopped attacking and turned its attention to Darwin who had been attacking it.
Darwin's magic had little effect on the glutton beast, but it was very annoying, just like being disturbed by a fly while concentrating, very annoying.
"Darwin, hurry up!" Alpha's warning was too late. The gluttonous beast flicked out its tongue and stuck directly to Darwin. The huge tongue directly wrapped around Darwin's body, and he had no time to react before he was heavily swept away.
"Hah!" With a loud shout, a huge hand stretched out from under the ground. When the gluttonous beast was about to swallow Darwin, it grabbed its tongue that was retracting.
With a violent scream, the tongue of the Glutton was torn off by the giant Gus. At this time, Gus transformed into a tyrant bear, with a body of 20 meters in height, 5 or 6 meters taller than the Glutton, once again forming a situation of the big bullying the small.
The two men once again fought a battle of equal strength, but this time the battle was earth-shaking and extremely fierce.
On the other side, Tasli had taken over the bandit's lair with the mercenary knights. After all, there were only a few powerful bandits. Some died and some fled. The most powerful ones were intercepted by Alpha and others. Most of the remaining bandits were civilians who could not survive. Now they squatted on the ground waiting for the judgment of fate, worried and fearful.
"Tasli, you are worried about that gangster! You don't have to worry. You said I'm not worried about defeating that glutton. I'm worried about other aspects." Athena didn't seem to be worried about winning or losing.
"Lady Athena, what do you mean?" Tasli was a little confused.
"First you have to know the relationship between Gluttony and our Discipline Knights, then you can understand the key." Athena was thinking about how to explain.
"Our power of discipline comes from the special abilities God bestows upon us through long-term observance of discipline, our original intentions and our faith. However, this world is balanced. If we gain abilities through discipline and faith, then the dark forces that we reject will gather elsewhere. This dark force is the power of chaos.
Special energies are separated from the vortex of chaos, and these energies slowly gather to form negative abilities that are opposite to our power of discipline, such as gluttony, killing, and lust. These people have more powerful powers and gain power by devouring negative abilities, but they still love us, the Knights of Discipline, the most. Once they devour us, they can not only inherit and amplify these abilities, but also obtain our power of discipline.
Similarly, we can also gain the enemy's abilities by defeating them, but what we get is a smaller or weakened ability, which seems unfair." Athena laughed at herself.
"Then what are the disadvantages of absorbing the power of chaos?" Athena seemed to understand.
"The impact is huge. Take the Glutton for example. It can devour infinitely to gain abilities, but as long as we devour the Glutton once, we will no longer be able to gain the power of discipline through faith, and can only do so by killing these chaotic species. These people with abilities will do anything to gain power, and will create power for the sake of power, completely turning into another kind of terrifying existence." Athena was worried that Alpha would turn into another kind of terrifying creature, and fell into deep thought for a moment.
"No, Lord Alpha won't do anything to gain power. He's too lazy." Tasli knew Alpha's situation.
"I thought so too, so I didn't stop him. But once someone absorbs that ability, it will definitely change a person a lot." Athena's eyes were full of worry.
"What is coming will come. Don't worry. Alpha is different. We have to believe in him."
The battle on the other side has become fierce. The original passage of more than ten meters has become a hundred-meter square. In the ruins, two giants are entangled with each other, wrestling like street thugs.
Soon, the tyrant's body began to change. His body began to expand, and his skin gradually turned scarlet. At the same time, powerful energy fluctuations were emanating from his body. This energy fluctuation became stronger and stronger, and there seemed to be no limit. The tyrant roared excitedly, and it seemed that he could not feel any pain at all.
At the same time, the body of the glutton beast began to change. His body became larger and larger, like a huge black hole, constantly devouring the energy of the tyrant. The glutton beast exuded a cold breath, which made people shudder.
The battle entered a white-hot stage, and the two giants fought fiercely in this small square. Their bodies collided with each other, making a huge noise, and the whole square was shaking. The gluttony beast continued to devour the energy of the tyrant, and the tyrant continued to attack, trying to get rid of the gluttony beast.
"Roar!" The Tyrant roared, and suddenly jumped up, punching the Glutton Beast in the head. The Glutton Beast reacted quickly, quickly turning his head to avoid the blow, and kicked the Tyrant in the waist. The Tyrant's body was kicked away, but he quickly stood up again and continued to attack the Glutton Beast.
The tyrant grinned, and no one knew what he was saying to the glutton, but it was definitely not something good.
