Chapter 373 - The Zerg Race Has Reappeared in the World
Inside the Devil Fla City’s Divine Hall
The High Priest looked at the bruised and swollen David with a face full of anger. He was holding the list that recorded the materials of the Zerg Race.
Earlier, due to anger, the High Priest instantly attacked David. He did not give David a chance to explain at all.
It was not until the High Priest was tired that David had the ti to take out the list to show him. Only then did he manage to calm down his angry father.
The High Priest raised the list in his hand and asked with a frown, “This is the information you bought with 100 million crystal coins?”
David nodded repeatedly with a face full of fear.
The High Priest took a deep breath and his angry expression gradually subsided. He said softly, “If this list is true, then it is not a waste for you to spend so much money on it! After all, Andre is one of the few level 45 Dark Elves. With my current strength, if I want to defeat him, I will have to rely on so equipnt. If I can obtain all the materials from the Zerg Race and forge them into a full set of equipnt, then I will definitely be able to suppress Andre. At that ti, the Devil Fla City will have a new master!”
David let out a sigh of relief. He smiled and said, “Father is right. I spent a lot of money to gather information about the Mother Nest Insect Egg for you. As long as your strength surpasses that of City Lord Andre, then you will be the ruler of Devil Fla City, and I will be able to kill Dave to vent my anger!”
The High Priest nodded. He shared the sa opinion with his son. They both hated Andre and his son. He currently lacked the strength to defeat Andre. Otherwise, he would have killed the City Lord a long ti ago.
“If that’s the case, then quickly take out the Mother Nest Insect Egg. I want to extract the materials and order my n to make equipnt imdiately. Then, I will use the highest form of ritual to request the great god Gajero, to enchant the equipnt!” said the High Priest in a hurry.
David imdiately took out the Mother Nest Insect Egg from his storage ring. A huge milky-white round boulder was placed in front of his father.
The High Priest walked around the boulder twice and could not help but nod.
“It really is an ancient relic! The surface of the egg has been completely petrified. No wonder they could discover its specific use. Fortunately, we have received accurate information regarding it!”
David nodded with so pride and hurriedly said, “Father, there’s no ti to lose. You’d better break open the egg and collect the materials quickly!”
The High Priest nodded and looked at David. He said in a deep voice, “Wait for outside! After I get the materials, I’ll make up for all the crystal coins that you spent before!”
David nodded disappointedly and said, “Well, okay. I’ll stand guard outside the door for you!”
After walking out of the room, David could not help but sit on the steps in front of the door and sigh. He wanted to see his father collect the materials with his own eyes and then ask for so unused materials to make so equipnt for himself. However, after seeing his father’s reaction, it seed that he had no intention of giving him any materials at all!
Although his father had promised to return him the crystal coins afterward, he still technically did not earn anything. Instead, he suffered an additional beating.
While David was feeling depressed, the High Priest who was in the room was rubbing his hands and looking at the eggs in front of him impatiently.
“As long as I can get all the materials of the Zerg Race, Andre and Hell’s rose will be completely trampled under my feet!”
The High Priest’s eyes were filled with fanaticism. He raised the magic staff in his hand and slamd it heavily on the ground.
There was no need for him to chant or make any preparations in advance. In an instant, a spell was completed!
A majestic black gas instantly appeared and transford into countless sharp blades to peel off the outer shell of the Mother Nest Insect Egg bit by bit.
After removing the petrified shell completely, the High Priest was able to see a slightly turbid insect egg. He could also vaguely see a worm that was about two ters long curled up inside.
As his vision was blurry due to his age, the High Priest could not see the specific details of the Zerg Race. However, he believed that after countless years, the worm inside the egg must have long lost its vitality. Considering its size, it must have fully developed before it died and possessed all the materials of the Zerg Race!
“Hahaha! I am truly blessed by the gods and heavens!”
The High Priest raised his hand to caress the sowhat cold egg. The smile on his face gradually beca even crazier.
However, in the next second, the High Priest’s pupils started to tremble violently. He discovered that the temperature of the egg was slowly rising due to his touch. Suddenly, he felt a strong suction force. The egg was sucking the High Priest’s palm fiercely onto it. It was as if it wanted the High Priest to continue supplying heat to it!
What was even more unexpected was that the huge figure curled up inside the egg had actually started to move. Its two-ter-long body began to stretch. At the sa ti, as the heat increased, the turbidity inside the egg also gradually receded. The High Priest could clearly see that the only thing separating him and the figure inside the egg was a thin layer of shells.
The figure had a pitch-black shell, a huge and bloated abdon, six hind legs, and two claws that were like blades on its upper body!
Imdiately after that, the figure’s black-colored head suddenly lit up. The figure had eight eyes that were emitting a dark green light. It was staring at the High Priest in front of him with a terrifying and evil gaze. At the sa ti, the lower part of its head gradually split into six parts. It was its mouth and it contained six teeth of different sizes.
Although the High Priest did not understand the language of the ancient Zerg Race nor did he speak to the giant figure that had suddenly woken up in front of him, he could still feel the aura of hunger from the other party’s body. He could clearly feel the other party’s desire to eat him up!
The High Priest did not dare to be careless at that mont. He raised his other hand that was holding the magic staff high and began to chant in a serious manner, “Great god Gajero, please grant the power to kill everything. In return, I will offer a part of the materials as a reward!”
In an instant, a huge black light condensed on the staff. It looked like it was recharging for the next terrifying attack.
However, at that mont, a claw that was as sharp as a blade instantly pierced through the shell of the egg. It directly cut off the High Priest’s arm that was holding the staff.
The High Priest’s arm fell to the ground together with the staff. After losing psionic power, the attack was imdiately aborted.
“Ah!”
The High Priest scread like a madman. He was desperately trying to reattach the arm that was absorbed by the figure.
At that mont, the figure’s other claw pierced through the shell of the egg again. Its two claws crossed each other and slashed across the egg. The arm that was attached to it was instantly shattered into pieces.
The High Priest lost both his arms and fell heavily to the ground. Blood splattered all over the ground. As he tried to escape, he shouted loudly, “Help! Help ! Help !”
Unfortunately, the rooms in the temple were all soundproof. Even David, who was guarding the door, could not hear anything!
The High Priest looked at the figure from the Zerg Race that had left the egg. It was chewing on his arms.
The High Priest’s eyes were filled with despair because he could clearly sense that it had the strength of a level 60 creature!
The figure had just erged from the egg, but it already had the strength of a level 60 creature. This ant that it was genuinely from a high-level race. It was far from an existence that the elves could contend against!
When the figure finished chewing on his two arms, it raised his head to look at the High Priest with his eight eyes. Without giving him any chance to call for help or retreat, the figure imdiately rushed forward and waved his two claws that were like blades. It instantly sliced the High Priest into pieces.
David, who had been waiting outside the door for a long ti, saw that his father had not co out for a long ti. He could not help but feel curious. He stood up and push open the door of the temple gently. He peeked in from the side carefully and saw a three-ter-tall giant Zerg. The Zerg looked like a giant spider and was licking blood off its claws.
Other than the blood all over the floor, there was no sign of the High Priest!
“Ah!”
David let out a heart-wrenching scream. He closed the door subconsciously and turned to run out of the temple.
When the surrounding guardian elders on night duty heard David’s scream, they imdiately rushed to the front of the temple to check the situation.
“High Priest, may I ask what happened?”
A guardian elder knocked on the door of the temple and asked respectfully, but there was no response.
The guardian elders looked at each other. They knew that the temple had soundproofing effects. However, since there was sothing going on, they had to investigate it carefully. They pushed open the main door of the temple together.
At the sa ti when the door was opened, two cold lights flashed quickly, and the bodies of the two guardian elders were instantly sliced into halves.
The rest of the guardian elders only saw a black shadow flash past their eyes. They soon saw a huge spider with terrifying strength appearing in the courtyard.
“Ah!”
The screams in the temple were incessant that night. Countless guardian elders had died at the hands of the Zerg. Most of them chose to escape the temple in a hurry. At the sa ti, the brutal and cruel Zerg turned its gaze to the streets outside the temple.
The disaster quickly shifted from the temple to the main streets of Devil Fla City. Fortunately, it was nightti, and there were no pedestrians on the streets. There were only the elders of the temple who were frantically fleeing. Their mournful cries were soon heard by the army stationed in the streets.
The huge army of Devil Fla City soon started an intense battle with the Zerg on the streets.
However, the strength of the Zerg was too terrifying. The army of Devil Fla City soon suffered heavy casualties. In the end, the general who was in charge of patrolling the night led his subordinates to fight the Zerg. They managed to lead the Zerg out of the city. This allowed Devil Fla City to escape horror.
Early the next morning, Andre, who had just woken up, could not help but fly into a rage after hearing the report from his subordinate.
“What are those idiots in the temple doing? Why is there such a terrifying Zerg running out of the temple? Are they taking the opportunity to destroy Devil Fla City? Is the High Priest prepared to start a full-scale war with us?”
The general on duty hurriedly said, “I have already gone to the temple to investigate. At the sa ti, I have also questioned so elders who escaped from the temple. According to them, this terrifying Zerg should have been released by the High Priest, but the High Priest is already dead!”
Andre frowned and asked in a deep voice, “Dead! Can you confirm it?”
The general nodded and said, “Although the High Priest’s body was not found, based on the elders’ description, it seems that the High Priest was most likely eaten by the Zerg! And the son of the High Priest, David, had fled the Divine Hall after the High Priest’s death. He had completely disappeared. We guessed that he should be an insider!”
Andre nodded, and the corners of his mouth could not help but twitch into a smile. His biggest opponent in Devil Fla City had actually died just like that. That Zerg had really helped him a great deal in an invisible way!
However, Devil Fla City had suffered a great calamity. Andre knew that he could not appear too happy, so he could only put on a heavy face. At the sa ti, he said with a hint of joy mixed in, “Imdiately deploy the troops to handle the casualties. The rest of you, imdiately leave the city to search for traces of that Zerg! At the sa ti, I also have to report this matter to Imperial City. Such a powerful Zerg, I’m afraid that only a god can resolve this disaster!”
“Yes!”
The general replied respectfully. He then left the City Lord’s hall.
…
Outside the city, on the grassland of the riverside mansion.
Vincent was accompanied by the morning sun as he vigorously brandished the long knife in his hand. His Return Journey of the Dead continuously streaked through the air. Gusts of violent winds imdiately surged up beside Vincent, bringing about countless terrifying heaven and earth phenona.
Vincent put away his knife after performing the first three moves of the eight forms of Heaven’s Will. He turned his head to look at Dave, who was learning how to swing his knife with all his might.
After a day of learning, Dave had already grasped the basics of how to use a knife. At the sa ti, he had also learned a series of moves like the Collapsing Mountain Strike from Vincent.
As for the most powerful eight forms of Heaven’s Will, Vincent only gave a rough description of it to Dave. Dave felt that it was obscure and difficult to understand. He could not figure out the moves at all. He felt helpless. He had no choice but to give up learning it temporarily and focus on improving his basics. After he had made progress, only then would he try learning the eight forms of Heaven’s Will.
After Dave perford all the blade techniques he had learned, he could not help but let out a long sigh of relief. He turned to Vincent and said with a smile, “This technique indeed seems to be more powerful and matchless than a sword. Moreover, the technique that you taught is more agile and unpredictable than the sword techniques of the elves. It is indeed a good way to quickly increase one’s strength! Unfortunately, I cannot understand your eight forms of Heaven’s Will at all, so I cannot learn the strongest moves at this ti!”
Vincent said with a smile, “The eight forms of Heaven’s Will were derived from a more profound skill known as the Art of Heaven’s Will. Only when the two are combined can the power of the blade technique be ford. Since Your Highness cannot learn the Art of Heaven’s Will, you might as well find a technique that uses the aura of the Demon Race. This way, Your Highness can achieve twice the result with half the effort!”
“Practice the magic blade!” sighed David in surprise.
Vincent’s idea was too bold for the Elf Race whose faith was paramount. However, as Dave had learned how to use a knife, he no longer had any psychological burden. Nevertheless, he was still shocked by Vincent’s strange ideas.
Vincent nodded and said aningfully, “I hope that Your Highness can not only practice the magic blade but also summarize the trick of integrating faith into the blade techniques. If we can find the pattern, then the Elf Race will be able to display more complex and powerful attacks in the future!”
Dave nodded and said, “Then I’ll give it a try!”
Vincent nodded in relief. He had asked Dave to do this because he wanted Dave to adapt to a battle style that was no longer purely based on faith. This was because Vincent planned on changing the entire Elf Race’s faith sooner or later. He did not want them to continue worshipping Gajero. When that ti ca, Dave would no longer need to explore new battle styles. Instead, he would be able to fuse any faith into his blade techniques and let it beco a part of his powerful strength!
Right at this ti, Monica led a squad leader to et Vincent.
When the squad leader saw Vincent and Dave, he imdiately said respectfully, “Your Highness Dave, Sir Vincent! The n we sent to monitor the temple have returned!”
Dave asked curiously, “Oh, did sothing happen last night?”
The squad leader said in a low voice, “Last night, a huge and powerful Zerg ran out of the temple. After injuring a large number of the defending troops, it was lured out of the city. However, it was said that the High Priest had already died at the hands of the Zerg!”
“What?”
Dave and Vincent exclaid in shock at the sa ti.
Although Vincent said that there was going to be a huge change in the temple, Dave did not expect that the High Priest would die at the hands of the Zerg!
It should be known that the battle between the High Priest and Andre had always been quite even. He did not expect that such a powerful figure would actually die just like that!
Vincent was also shocked that the Zerg had actually run out of the city. He could not help but quickly ask, “What is the strength of that Zerg? Where did it run off to?”
The squad leader thought for a mont and said, “According to rumors, that Zerg should have the strength of a level 60 creature. Last night, it was lured out of the west city gate. I think it has already entered…”
Before the squad leader could finish, Vincent and Dave sighed at the sa ti, “The Tias Mountain Range!”
Vincent did not expect that a trap that he had devised at the last minute would actually draw danger into the Tias Mountain Range. Angelina and the others were hiding there. If they encountered the Zerg, the consequences would be unimaginable!
However, it was too late to be regretful. Vincent only wanted to rush to the Tias Mountain Range imdiately to check on Angelina and the others!
Dave had long guessed that there must be soone or sothing very important to Vincent in the Tias Mountains, so he imdiately said to Vincent, “Go to the Tias Mountains, I’ll go with you!”
Vincent turned to look at Dave. He could hear the good intentions in Dave’s words. If only the two of them went, there would be no need to bring the 300 soldiers, and when the ti ca, Angelina and the others would also not be noticed by so many of them.
However, Vincent could tell that Dave was curious. He wanted to personally go to the Tias mountains to see Vincent’s companions.
However, as things had co to this stage, Vincent was no longer afraid that Dave would know about his background. He imdiately nodded and said, “Alright, let the army stay here to protect the mansion. The two of us will go to the Tias Mountains to check out the situation. We will return as soon as possible!”
Dave said happily, “No problem. Let’s set off imdiately!”
