Swallowing the Stars: Sacrifice to Become Stronger, Fiancée is Alluring

Chapter 50 The Bewildered Ironclad Dragon

Half an hour later.

Jiang Lan stood on the rooftop of a residential building, holding binoculars, looking at a building about two kilometers away from him.

Although the sign on the building had been eroded beyond recognition by wind and sand and was blurred, the three large characters "Carrefour" could still be vaguely seen on it.

Monsters also need to eat and drink, so as a large supermarket before the outbreak of the virus, it was inevitable that many monsters would gather there.

But this place is clearly more complicated than that.

The supermarket has five floors, and the original windows have long been mostly broken due to various reasons.

Jiang Lan could clearly see that there were quite a few monsters roaming around on the third, fourth, and fifth floors of the supermarket.

On the first and second floors, there wasn't a single monster in Jiang Lan's sight.

Then there's the outside.

Jiang Lan estimated that there were at least three hundred monsters outside the supermarket.

Those closer to the supermarket entrance had shiny fur and were significantly larger than those on the outer perimeter.

Jiang Lan adjusted the focus of the binoculars and began to examine them carefully.

It's okay if you don't look closely, but after only a short while, Jiang Lan's mouth was already stretched almost to her ears.

Advanced Beast General, Advanced Beast General, and a damn Advanced Beast General!

Get rich!

Jiang Lan shifted his gaze, and suddenly, two giant beasts with scarlet bodies appeared in his field of vision.

He stared intently and saw that both giant beasts were covered in bright red scales, without a single blemish, which reflected dazzling light under the sunlight.

The giant beast's head also had three ferocious long horns that curved forward, and in terms of shape, they vaguely resembled his Golden Feathered Halberd.

Almost instantly, Jiang Lan recognized the identities of the two giant beasts.

Fire-Scaled Three-Horned Pig!

This thing is arguably the most powerful of all pig-type monsters.

Even the weakest Fire-Scaled Three-Horned Boar possesses the strength of a mid-level beast general.

In Jiang Lan's view, these two huge creatures, judging by their size, were probably already lord-level monsters.

Jiang Lan was overjoyed.

I don't usually run into these people, but I never expected to run into two of them.

wrong!

There should be more than two.

It would be impossible to gather such a luxurious monster team if there were only two low-level lords.

At a glance, there are dozens of high-level beast generals, not to mention the intermediate-level ones; a hundred or so would be considered few.

There are also novice beast generals and beast soldiers on the outer perimeter.

Therefore, these two lord-level Fire-Scaled Three-Horned Boars are not only not the leaders of this herd, but their presence at the entrance of Carrefour supermarket makes them seem more like two security guards.

Jiang Lan's eyes widened slightly.

If a junior lord guards the gate, what kind of strength must the monster leader inside the supermarket possess?

Intermediate Lord?

impossible!

Although Jiang Lan didn't see it directly, it was clear that a mid-level lord-level monster couldn't possibly have such a powerful presence.

Therefore, only one possibility remains!

High Lord!

Moreover, they were high-ranking lords with considerable strength, even super powerful ones.

Jiang Lan's eyes grew brighter and brighter.

Isn't this a windfall?

If so many monsters are sacrificed, wouldn't it just take off immediately?

Upon seeing the Carrefour supermarket, Jiang Lan realized just how wildly wrong his previous calculations had been.

The one million kilograms of strength he had previously acquired was the result of a hard-earned day's work, during which he slew over five hundred monsters.

But now, a single Carrefour supermarket can hold a massive amount of monsters.

Although it probably didn't reach 500 heads, its quality is just too good to be true!

These are both high-level beast generals and low-level lords, and their quality is far superior to the batch of monsters Jiang Lan hunted the day before.

If this were leveled by the supermarket, wouldn't the Body Tempering Pills he collected directly increase his strength by two million kilograms?

Jiang Lan's mind went blank for a moment, and she could barely make sense of the arithmetic.

However, Jiang Lan was no longer in the mood to calculate at this moment.

He jumped straight off the rooftop.

This time, however, Jiang Lan didn't make any noise like before.

When the monsters were scattered, making some noise could attract them.

But now, the monsters are mostly gathered at the entrance of the Carrefour supermarket not far away. If he makes a sound and causes a monster riot, that would be bad.

If a few big guys really escape, wouldn't Jiang Lan regret it to death?

Moreover, Jiang Lan had no intention of confirming whether the mysterious high-level lord monster actually existed in the empty first and second floors of the supermarket.

It's best to have it, but it doesn't matter if you don't.

The monsters outside those buildings were enough to keep him busy for a while.

If it weren't for that, Jiang Lan wouldn't have felt so distressed. After all, quantity leads to quality, and if the quality isn't good, then quantity is the only way to win.

Judging from its appearance, it probably is.

Otherwise, so many monsters in the herd wouldn't be obediently guarding the supermarket entrance like they are now.

……

Inside Carrefour supermarket.

The ceiling between the first and second floors had been removed, and in the center of the huge hall, a colossal figure was lying on the ground.

Its body is covered with dark blue scales, and it looks like a lizard magnified many times. Its eyes are closed, as if it is asleep.

With each breath it took, two plumes of smoke, carrying a fishy stench, would shoot out from its nasal cavity.

"Roar—"

Just as the enormous creature was fast asleep, a fierce, monstrous roar suddenly rang out at the supermarket entrance, accompanied by a series of noisy sounds.

It suddenly opened its eyes, and its aura, which seemed to be tangible, burst forth, filling the surrounding space with an indescribable pressure.

He stood up and slowly turned his enormous head toward the door.

But as soon as it saw the scene outside the door, the enormous monster immediately stood up.

Where are my little brothers? Where are all my little brothers?

As a high-ranking lord-level monster, it had long possessed a certain level of consciousness and was even able to communicate with humans.

In terms of intelligence, it is no less than that of humans.

But the current situation is indeed somewhat incomprehensible to it.

Originally, there were at least three hundred monsters of various species and strengths near the supermarket entrance.

But at that moment, not a single monster remained; they all seemed to have teleported away instantly, completely disappearing from the supermarket entrance.

Even its capable henchmen, the two low-level lord-level Fire-Scaled Three-Horned Boars, have left their posts without permission and disappeared without a trace.

"Roar—"

The enormous monster immediately became anxious, raised its head and let out a huge roar, then stared intently at the supermarket door with its huge pupils, seemingly intending to leave.

But before it could do anything, the glass door suddenly shattered.

A human dressed in combat gear and holding a golden halberd walked in through the door.

"An armored dragon? Not bad!"
