Green Monster Epic

#378 - survivor

Boom!!!

The entire sky was enveloped by the raging anger and abyssal power, tearing apart the surrounding space, as if the sky where the four figures stood had appeared in the deep, dark void.

Noding and Kajiso's rich combat experience allowed them to skillfully entangle the Ice Demon Bridge when they discovered Allen's sudden attack from the sky, ultimately allowing Allen's long-prepared killing move to strike the opponent fiercely and decisively.

Although the Ice Demon still managed to draw his dark gold greatsword in a hurry to block, he could only barely prevent himself from being seriously injured in the face of Allen's almost full-strength blow. However, the powerful recoil force from the weapons of both sides inevitably sent him crashing to the ground like a hit baseball.

Thump!!!

A small mushroom cloud rose from the ground, and a pit more than ten meters wide gradually reappeared in front of Allen and the others as the dust filled the sky and slowly settled. The small hillside looked as if it had been cut in half, its shape very strange, due to the appearance of this pit.

Allen's body shot back dozens of meters into the sky before stopping. Then, he took a deep breath and attacked again almost simultaneously with Noding and Kajiso, diving fiercely towards the center of the pit from three directions.

Sizzle!!

Thump!! Thump!! Thump!

A huge, radiant electric snake fell from Noding's single-handed hammer, illuminating the lonely figure in the pit. Immediately afterward, the three weapons of Allen, Noding, and Kajiso struck the pit one after another, further expanding the area of the pit. The surrounding ground churned and surged, like ripples caused by a stone thrown into a calm sleep.

"Roar!!"

The Ice Demon Bridge looked very disheveled. The ice armor covering his mithril armor had disappeared, revealing the dark, inky essence of the mithril. Of course, even this set of sturdy mithril armor had several deep cracks, all marks left by Allen and Kajiso's sharp blades.

Bridge, with crimson blood foam overflowing from the corner of his mouth, had a raging fighting spirit burning in his eyes. Although he was in a disadvantageous situation of fighting the weak against the strong at this time, he was still full of confidence and did not worry about his personal safety at all.

Bridge, with a scarlet tongue sticking out of his mouth to gently lick away the overflowing blood foam and an uninhibited look in his eyes, suddenly exerted force under his feet. Before Allen and the others could attack again, he took the lead in swinging his greatsword, drawing a graceful arc in the air with a fierce sword wind, pointing directly at Allen not far away.

Although Allen's sword momentum looked fierce and powerful, Bridge still keenly felt after two encounters that the opponent's skills and strength were not as great as they appeared.

Allen's eyes were cold, and the sparse hairs on his head swayed under the wind pressure of his opponent's prior arrival. Bonecleaver was held horizontally in front of him, and his legs, in a bow stance, exerted force, causing the broken ground to collapse and sink again. Then, Allen's body turned into a phantom and directly collided head-on with the opponent in front.

Like two fearless mad bulls, one tall and strong and the other slender and mismatched, the two figures crashed together with a bang after a breath. Greatswords intersected in front of them, creating sparks, and the ground vibrated like a tide towards the distance, causing the other two figures to sway slightly, but it did not affect their forward冲动作.

Veins popped out on Bridge's hand, and he pushed Allen away with a direct thrust. Then, the greatsword drew an arc around his body, and a horizontal sweep met Kajiso's two heavy steel axe chops and Noding's heavy hammer head-on.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The greatsword was transferred from his right hand to his left, continuing to sweep horizontally. Bridge, who had just blocked the attacks of two opponents, counterattacked in the same breath, forcing Kajiso and the others to retreat two steps to defend. At this time, Allen, who had failed in the previous contest of strength, pounced again, and a whirlwind sword turned him into a blade storm, sweeping towards Bridge.

Bridge lightly exhaled a breath of turbid air, then mustered his strength again, stepping on the uneven ground with both legs, burying them and his calves deep into the soil. The dark gold greatsword was wrapped in deep abyssal power, protecting most of his body.

When the storm passed, Bridge's mithril armor had a few more sword marks. As soon as Allen stopped, Noding and Kajiso pounced again.

Whoosh!!

A solid ice shield appeared out of thin air, helping Bridge block Noding's heavy hammer, while his greatsword was forced forward, intersecting with Kajiso's double axes. Then, Bridge was forced to pull his legs out of the soil by the heavy force on the double axes, retreating several steps involuntarily.

Allen took a breath and went up again, not giving Bridge any chance to breathe, and fiercely unleashed a triple wave strike.

Bridge had not yet stabilized his footing. Seeing Allen's blade swinging over again, he had to brace himself and boost the abyssal power, wielding his greatsword in a diagonal upward motion to intercept Allen. Then, his figure flew up again.

Noding and Kajiso went up again. A bolt of lightning directly hit the mithril armor, splashing out sparks. Immediately afterward, several dull and crisp sounds of metal clashing rang out. Bridge, who had just taken flight, did not have time to take the opportunity to escape before he was smashed to the ground like a cannonball again.

"Gagagaga!!"

The embarrassed Bridge laughed instead of being angry, staring at Allen, who was coming one after another, with crazy eyes. Suddenly, with a twist of his wrist, the greatsword turned into a drill bit and shot out of his hand towards Allen.

Seeing this situation, Allen immediately chopped straight down with Bonecleaver. His sharp eyes saw the direction of the greatsword's shot at a glance. The blade shifted and turned into a shield. In the midst of the creaking and grating noise, a force of gravity suddenly struck, causing Allen's forward-lunging body to stagnate and stop on the spot.

Clang!

As the greatsword fell, Allen heard two exclamations beside his ears. When he looked up again, Bridge's two big fists directly appeared in front of him.

Bang!!

Allen only felt a darkness in front of his eyes, and his head was dizzy for a while. His body was also knocked backward by the huge force, dragging a deep mark on the pitted ground.

When Allen struggled to his feet again, dragging his sore body, the three legendary figures were long gone from the ground, except for the dark gold greatsword not far away. In his mental perception, three powerful forces were rapidly chasing north. Allen did not stay any longer. He stepped across a dozen meters in one step, picked up the greatsword on the ground, threw it into the dimensional bag, and immediately ran after the three figures.

This pursuit took a long time. If a legendary powerhouse was determined to escape, it would be difficult even with several more equally powerful powerhouses surrounding and intercepting.

However, judging from the expressions of Noding and Kajiso, they seemed to have made up their minds to kill the Ice Demon Legend ahead. They continued to chase for hundreds of miles without showing any signs of stopping. Allen, who was trailing behind, was naturally too embarrassed to stay alone, so he had to keep chasing their figures northward.

The chase lasted for two days. Finally, as Bridge, this powerful ice demon, was passing through the territory of the Chuckley troll tribe, Marquis, a mid-level legend who was stationed there, blocked his path with a long spear, finally ending the long pursuit by Allen and the others.

With Marquis, who had advanced as a Storm Ranger, joining the fight, Allen and the others had a greater chance of killing Bridge. In an instant, amidst the flashes of swords and spears, ghostly javelins constantly darted and shot out, blocking Bridge's routes of retreat, making it even more difficult for him to face the three melee legends.

The battle continued for several more magical hours. When the battered and bruised Bridge once again forced back Allen, Kagezo, and the others, a strange look flashed in his eyes. He forcibly endured a blow from Noding's hammer, and using the force of Noding's heavy hammer, he retreated backward, his target directly at Allen.

Allen was not afraid either. Bone Cleaver was raised high, and a furious heavy chop quickly descended, his eyes firm and brave.

Boom!

Pfft!

On the sturdy magic iron armor, Bone Cleaver was deeply embedded, then stuck firmly at Bridge's scapula, unable to penetrate any further.

Pfft!

Bridge spat out a mouthful of foul blood, the bloody foam directly covering Allen's face, and a pair of thick hands hugged Allen's waist.

Allen's pupils quickly contracted, and then, without thinking, he abandoned Bone Cleaver. His legs jumped and kicked, leaving two footprints on Bridge's chest, trying to break free from the opponent's bear hug.

"Want to leave?"

The common language with a strange pronunciation came from Bridge's hoarse throat. Having given up hope of escape, he wanted to drag someone down with him even if he died. His eyes were scarlet with madness. Although he didn't manage to hug Allen, he casually grabbed at Allen's ankle as he was about to escape.

"Looking for death!"

Behind him, a javelin pierced Bridge's arm. He thought Bridge would let go to dodge, but unexpectedly, the other party swept with his other empty palm. After leaving a bloody gash on his arm, the javelin was also pulled to the other side, colliding head-on with Noding who was rushing over.

Clang!

Noding raised his hand, his shield blocking the remaining power of the javelin. The heavy hammer in his hand fell, smashing towards Bridge's chest.

Boom!

Allen, who had his ankle grabbed, was like a willow in the wind. Under Bridge's powerful waving, he repeatedly hit the ground, splashing up layers of dust. Dizzy, Allen also struggled to break free, his other thigh slightly bent, kicking directly at the opponent's forehead along the upward swing of his arm.

The heavy hammer fell, and the magic iron armor was deeply dented. Bridge once again spat out a mouthful of foul blood.

Allen's limbs felt as if they were broken. He didn't know when Bone Cleaver had fallen from his hand. The opponent ignored Noding, Kagezo, and their attacks, and exerted all his strength on Allen, bullying Allen for being weaker and less skilled, only seeing who would take their last breath first.

Pfft!

Allen didn't know how many times he had been smashed. His mind was dark, his chest was heavy and he wanted to vomit, until suddenly the body that fell on the ground no longer swayed. Seizing the opportunity, Allen mustered a breath in his chest, sat up on the spot, grabbed his ankle with both hands, and snapped the opponent's fingers twice, breaking the opponent's fingers. After completely escaping, Allen quickly got up and retreated to a safe distance, then he paid attention to Bridge, this powerful opponent.

Only the enemy in front of him, at this time, had several javelins piercing through his chest, obliquely inserted into the ground, supporting the opponent's body from falling. A pair of round, bulging scarlet pupils did not close. Although they had lost their vitality, they still stared fiercely ahead, making people awe-inspiring.

Allen's whole body was aching unbearably. He took out a bottle of advanced healing potion from the dimensional bag and drank it. As a cool aura slowly spread throughout his body, his expression relaxed a bit.

It seems that my strength still needs to be improved. My always arrogant power was at a disadvantage in front of Bridge, this ice demon. Under countless contests of strength, he was easily defeated by the opponent. As for combat skills and expertise, they were even more forcibly crushed by the opponent. If I were to fight him one-on-one, I'm afraid that apart from fleeing in panic, I wouldn't have any other good way.

"Fortunately, you helped us, Marquis!"

Noding raised his head and expressed his gratitude to Marquis. On the other side, Kagezo's eyes flickered and he didn't make any movements. It seems that the relationship between Tom's two neighbors stationed on the southeastern border of the wilderness was not very close.

"It's good to be able to help you."

Marquis gladly accepted Noding's gratitude, but when his eyes turned to the ice demon who had lost his life, a look of greed flashed, and it seemed that he was also full of expectations for the spoils of war.

Swish!

After thanking Marquis, Noding waved the heavy hammer in his hand in Allen's direction, and then a healing spell for minor injuries enveloped Allen's figure, combining with the effect of the healing potion, further reducing the pain on Allen's body.

"Who is this?"

At this time, Marquis asked about Allen with a bit of interest.

"Hello, I am Allen Witt from the Green Field tribe."

Allen was actually a little embarrassed. In this legendary battle, in the end, only he was seriously injured. It didn't matter if people looked down on him, but this injury, I'm afraid it wouldn't get better without several months of recuperation.

"Oh, I didn't expect that there is a new person in our wilderness!"

Although he saw that Allen's skills were a bit sparse, Marquis's eyes did not show the slightest contempt. The strong men who can get to their step have time to slowly hone and improve their strength. You can't ask the legends who have just been promoted to be able to compete with other strong people!

"I am Marquis Chuckley of the Chuckley tribe in the east. You can come to our town to get together when you have time."

"Thank you for your invitation. I will definitely go when I have time."

Allen nodded.

Next, it was time to distribute the spoils. When they reached their level of existence, they would generally have their own dimensional items, so they would basically carry all their wealth with them.

After a search and inspection, a dark hollow leg bone was dug out from the ice demon's flesh and blood. Then, Noding's mental power focused on the black leg bone. Countless soul crystals and precious materials from hell poured out from the opening of the leg bone, and soon piled up into a small mountain.

"Tsk tsk tsk, it's a pity. Most of the things in this dimensional metatarsal bone are soul crystals, which are not widely used in our material world!"

Noding sorted the materials in front of Allen and the others. Most of the divided gray-white crystals were soul crystals that could be used as money in the abyss, but in the Feyman world, except for warlocks and certain professions related to souls and minds, the use of soul crystals was not great.

Moreover, because demons and devils in the abyss like souls, many guys in the material world who collect soul crystals are mostly related to evil god beliefs. Therefore, clergy members like Noding would ban the circulation of soul crystals on the market to prevent them from being used by evil god believers to contact demons and devils.

“Hmm, this bone crystal is for a negative energy burst specialization. It seems like none of us can learn it. Let me check this one… Tsk tsk, what a pity. It's just for a Devil Ripper advancement, not useful to us…”

After some inspection, the vast majority of the resources were of little use to Allen and the others. After all, different races have different power systems, so many inheritances and specializations are not suitable for each other. In the end, the only things of some value were the demon medicine materials and rare metals from the hell plane.

“Just give me all the soul crystals. I don't want anything else.”

Nodding stored the pile of soul crystals into his dimensional bag. After all, these things are quite sensitive, and it wouldn't be good for them to fall into circulation.

“Then I'll take these two Demon Dragon claws and this Demon Refining Heart.”

Kajiso didn't hold back either, pointing to another pile of demon medicine materials.

“Then… I'll take these bone crystals!”

Although Marquis contributed a lot in the battle, in terms of merit, Nodding and the others who chased after the Ice Demon were more deserving. Fortunately, the corpse of this legendary Ice Demon could be exchanged for military merits and contribution points. After Marquis gave up the right to share, he was able to obtain materials of equal value from the spoils.

“I'll take these things.”

Allen didn't have much to choose from either. What was left on the ground were a dozen or so pieces of metal shimmering with light. According to Nodding's identification, there were star iron, abyssal dark silver, magic iron, and other miscellaneous materials. Each material didn't seem to be enough to create an item, making them seem a bit useless.

Fortunately, the Ice Demon had a set of tattered, mottled magic iron armor. Allen didn't mind scraping it off, thinking of taking it back with the materials in his hand to see if he could get Manduli to help him forge a more suitable and stronger set of armor.

When the Ice Demon's magic iron armor was intact before, it suddenly deployed an ice shield several times in critical moments, helping him block fatal blows. Compared to Allen's armor, which only had a sturdy attribute, it was much stronger.

Strength is not only reflected in oneself, but also external power is also part of strength. Allen doesn't think it's embarrassing to use alchemical tools, scrolls, and other means to deal with an enemy.

After the few people happily divided the spoils, they went their separate ways. Allen played a little trick. Since Nodding and Kajiso didn't ask where the Ice Demon's heavy sword went, Allen naturally wouldn't take the initiative to explain. Therefore, when all was said and done, his harvest was actually more than the others. To be used as a personal weapon by a legendary Ice Demon with a wealth of possessions, that dark gold heavy sword in the corner of Allen's dimensional bag must also be a powerful weapon.

At least, it should be much better than the Bone Cleaver Allen is currently using!

After hurrying south for most of the day, Allen and the others returned to the edge of Lake Samay. The battlefield from before, apart from a mess, had long lost the figures of the Knights and the demons. It seemed that the Knights had already returned to Lake Samay after clearing the remnants of the demons.

“How is it? Did that Ice Demon get…”

Ahmad saw three figures in the distance approaching and landing on the open space in front of the yurt, smilingly looking at the relatively short Nodding and asking.

“Need you even ask? With the three of us working together, we definitely couldn't let him run away!”

Kajiso spoke first, proudly responding.

“That's great!!”

Being able to kill a legendary demon is indeed something to be happy about for the wilderness. If he was allowed to continue wandering in the wilderness, the damage and threat he would cause would be quite significant.

“The threat from the demons in the south doesn't seem to be great anymore. Just yesterday, the scouts I sent out discovered traces of human armies.”

Ahmad welcomed Allen and the others into the yurt, casting a teasing look at Allen, who was wrapped tightly in gauze, while chatting with them about the surrounding movements.

“Human armies?”

Nodding's eyes instantly turned serious. He still couldn't maintain a calm attitude towards these ungrateful guys. Nodding felt a surge of anger whenever they were mentioned.

“However, after approaching our position, they immediately retreated back. Our scouts reported that they set up camp at the Great Waterfall two hundred miles south, so it seems there won't be any major movements in the short term.”

“I think we can't be lax about these humans. It's better to be careful.”

“Hmm…”

Allen didn't speak, just quietly listening to Ahmad and the others' conversation. He focused more of his energy on recuperating while gathering various information.

Taking advantage of the break to recuperate, Allen simultaneously shuttled through the dense military tents, searching for Mauro and the others. Tent after tent was left behind by Allen, and the fewer tents he checked, the darker Allen's mood became.

If Mauro and the others were not found in these last hundred tents, it would mean that the 50 warriors sent out from Green Lake Village had basically no chance of surviving.

It wasn't until he came to a slightly crude tent, which was also far from the center of the military camp, that Allen burrowed into the tent. A sour and stinky smell assaulted his nostrils, causing Allen to frown slightly.

The military has never paid much attention to hygiene. After all, they are a group of rough guys, and a big battle could happen at any time, so there's not much to be particular about.

In the large tent, the first thing that caught Allen's eye was a strong hobgoblin figure, but one that was missing its left leg. The crippled hobgoblin's eyes were dull, and a heavy double-bladed battle ax was placed beside him. Allen's entry didn't cause the other party the slightest vigilance, until he slammed a right hand heavily on the other's shoulder.

“Mauro, you were hard to find!!”

A look of joy flashed across Allen's face, and he shouted happily.

The hobgoblin looked up, and his dim pupils crossed paths with Allen's eyes. When he saw Allen's familiar face clearly, Mauro's eyes finally had a few glimmers of light, and then dimmed again: “Chieftain, why are you here too?”

Seeing Mauro's dejected mood, Allen's excited mood also diminished a bit, and he asked, looking at the empty tent.

“Where are the others? Why are you the only one in the tent?”

“Lolo and the others are on duty tonight and won't be off until the second half of the night.”

After initially meeting Allen's gaze, Mauro didn't dare to look at Allen again, always lowering his head to look at the ground.

Allen entrusted himself with 50 tribesmen, asking him to take care of them, but after several battles, the entire Greenfield tribe's team, including himself, had only 9 people left. The others had all died in battle. Even himself, now, had become a cripple. His left leg was cut off at the root by a powerful demon, and he almost lost his life. Two fingers on his right hand were also broken, and it can basically be said that he had lost his former strength and become a useless waste.

I broke my promise again today and didn't add an extra chapter.

I have a cold.
