Chapter 644 A Monster Like a Heart, A Terrifying Speculation
The divine light illuminated everything around them, allowing Celia and Elena to see clearly that what was located at the center of the vast underground space was divine grace.

That's a...

A massive mountain of flesh!
The irregularly shaped pile of flesh and blood formed an indescribably huge monster, hundreds of meters long.

Celia and Elena looked like tiny ants in its presence.

This enormous mountain of flesh crawled on the ground, emitting a sound like a beating heart.

Along with the sound, its body also stretched and contracted, as if it were truly a heart.

With each jump, the surrounding pollution is exchanged.

Celia frowned as she looked on, then couldn't help glancing at Ross beside her.

But Ross was also scrutinizing her with a serious expression.

She couldn't help but ask, "Lord Ross, what is this?"

Ross said, "It's not certain yet. Let's wait and see. Move closer and see if it reacts to your arrival."

"it is good."

Celia agreed and prepared to step forward.

Elena, who was standing nearby, suddenly reached out and grabbed her arm.

"Celia, don't go over there!"

Celia turned to look at Elena, only to see her tense expression, staring intently at the monster in front of her.

"What's wrong?" Celia asked.

“It…it’s terrifying.” Elena’s face was pale, her expression shifting between fear and confusion, and sometimes with a strange sense of disgust.

"How to say?"

Celia looked at Elena's state with curiosity. Ross hadn't said anything about this thing, but Elena seemed to know something about it.
“I don’t know.” Elena bit her lip. “I don’t know where this feeling comes from. Maybe it’s a blessing from the gods… It makes me feel scared and disgusted… It’s dangerous.”

Celia pondered, "A blessing from the gods? Or is it a legacy from the elves?"

"I don't know." Elena shook her head.

"Lord Ross, do you know?" Celia asked Ross.

Ross glanced at Elena and casually said, "It should be a problem with the inheritance of the Elf God. In my memory, the Elf God would not react like this. It should be that after the Age of Calamity, some 'evil god' threw a lot of pollution under the Elf Forest, using the life force of the Elf Forest and the Sacred Tree to nourish this pollution, and incidentally created this thing as the 'heart' for circulating pollution and life force, which is why the Elf God hates it."

After a pause, Ross added, "As for fear, I don't know. We'll only know once we find out what this thing is."

"So we still have to go and take a look!"

Celia was curious why Ross needed her to go over and see for herself, but she didn't say anything. She patted Elena's hand and said, "Since you don't know anything, go and take a look. If you're scared, then let me go alone."

"No...no." Elena's lips turned pale, her voice trembling but firm.

Before Celia could say anything, she continued, "If we're going, we'll go together. How could I let my companions take the risk alone? That's not how an adventurer behaves."

What kind of time is this to be an adventurer?

Celia was speechless.

She summoned the puppet and said, "Since you're going, let's go together. Get ready and let's see what this thing is."

“Okay.” Elena mustered her courage and nodded firmly.

So, after making ample preparations and holding scrolls in their hands, the two slowly advanced, gradually approaching the strange, fleshy mountain monster.

The ball of light illuminating the entire underground space was also slowly moving forward under Celia's control.

This is not the light of a purification spell, but just ordinary illumination. It will generally not elicit a reaction from monsters unless the monster is particularly sensitive to such ordinary light.

However, it is clear that the monsters here do not possess this characteristic, because they all have thick armor that cannot be penetrated by any light, let alone the ultimate holy light spell.

As they drew closer, the two gradually saw the entirety of the gigantic mountain of flesh. It was covered in various fleshy growths, a sight that was disturbing to behold.

When she was about 40 or 50 meters away from the mountain of flesh, Celia suddenly sensed that the pollution around her was fluctuating violently.

She and Elena stopped and looked at the monster in front of them.

dong dong!dong dong!
The throbbing sound suddenly became rapid.

Hilia vaguely felt the ground shaking.

She suddenly realized something, and her expression changed.

"It's a monster!"

Elena also realized what was happening.

"This monster can summon monsters from outside."

Celia's expression turned serious. "It seems we're in for a tough battle."

Just as he was contemplating whether to continue forward, get closer to the Mountain of Flesh, and try attacking it, Ross's voice rang out.

"Let's stay here. You guys prepare to fight the monster. I'll go check out this guy."

"Okay." Celia breathed a sigh of relief and quickly informed Elena to prepare for battle.

To avoid being attacked from both sides, the two moved slightly closer to the monsters, intending to have them block the monster attacks from one direction.

Before long, a large number of monsters poured out from the passages from all directions and rushed towards the two of them.

Celia breathed a sigh of relief when she noticed that they seemed afraid to approach the monster in the center.

In this way, they only need to face monsters from three directions.

While the two were fighting the monster, Ross had already slowly approached the Mountain of Flesh.

He came down to the monster and looked at it throbbing violently in front of him, as if it had just done some strenuous exercise.

Ross's expression turned serious.

The mental energy swept over the giant monster, peeling away the layers of restraints that enveloped it, revealing the monster's true form.

A moment later, he narrowed his eyes.

"As expected, this thing was created by that God-King, with the aim of allowing the pollution here to absorb the elements of life."

"In its original form, this thing possessed extremely strong vitality, but that vitality was not even enough for the God-King, so it still needed a continuous supply from the Elf Forest."

"Does this feature only exist on this node, or do all nodes have it?"

Ross's brows furrowed slowly.

If all nodes are present, it would actually be easier for Ross.

This indicates that the monster is something that can be replicated. If it were unique, then each core node would be a new entity, and so on...

Ross looked at the monster in front of him, pondered for a moment, and decided to take a slight risk to find out what it was.

His mental energy transformed into fine threads. He slightly drew upon some of Celia's magic to condense a trace of divine power and applied it to his mental energy, probing into the monster's interior to slowly search for its origin.

Not long after, he withdrew his spiritual energy threads, his expression playful.

"Take back your previous guess. This thing... was actually made from Harodias' heart."

"so……"

"Could this massive underground magic array be Haroldius's body, and the passageway actually be equivalent to his blood vessels?"

Previously, Ross had not infiltrated the magic array out of caution, but now, he had a new suspicion.
