Erii: A Journey Through the Heavens Begins with Frilian

Chapter 98 Heretic! You Don't Belong to This Planet! (Two chapters combined)

"A completely new metamorphosed Devourer, and a pan-generative companion species," Kolova exclaimed in shock, "an attack method specifically designed to counter the Spirit Concealment Bullet—this is no coincidence!"

"The Mana ecosystem is an intelligent collective. We have been using decoy missiles, return-to-origin weapons, and devouring beasts to fight and maneuver for a long time. They may have already gathered enough information to make targeted countermeasures," Ulan Aodeng said solemnly.

It was a slender, molted form, its entire body resembling a slippery loach, crawling stealthily with three legs on each side, and its tail splitting at the end, sprouting more than a dozen red rays.

It has a head that resembles both a chicken and a peacock, with three pairs of cold and treacherous crimson-gold eyes behind its long, sharp beak. Its chin has soft, chicken-like skin and flesh, from which a pink tentacle resembling a large intestine can extend.

Around it, there was a large group of chicks, similar in size to the spiny eel, with long, spear-like spiky tails, but they moved faster and were more agile, like assassins among the Devouring Beasts.

wow——

As the saying goes, misfortunes never come singly.

Following the Calyx Beast, the Giant Toothed Beast, and the Giant Rooster, the fourth mutated form crossed the mountain ridge and soared into the sky.

Beneath a pair of enormous, tattered fleshy wings lies a disproportionately small body, with dozens or even hundreds of slender human arms dangling from its abdomen. The head lacks mouthparts, nose, and other facial features, possessing only a large, protruding insect compound eye.

Behind it, dozens of pan-generative flying Devouring Beasts followed closely.

Upon seeing this, the faces of everyone at the lighthouse immediately changed.

"We were attacked by them at night!" Jingnan quickly informed the villagers of Longgu Village of their characteristics.

"Damn, they've even spawned a flying Devouring Beast?" Ulan Aodeng's expression turned serious.

"What has triggered this mana ecosystem? Or has it sensed some danger?" Po Kong muttered.

Despite their complaints, they didn't stop firing, unleashing a barrage of heavy firearms, since they had no intention of taking them back after bringing them out.

Under the relentless bombardment, the corpses of the Devouring Beasts piled up like mountains. Fortunately, there were no Mana Flowers nearby to provide energy, otherwise it would have been a situation even more desperate than despair.

"Instructor! We missed!"

"Lord, we've run out of heavy ammunition!"

"Ran Bing, we're the same!"

The beast tide has buried the riverbed, and the distance to the lighthouse is almost negligible.

Mark and Ulan Aodeng exchanged a glance and said in unison, "Split up and retreat!"

"But?" Jingnan glanced at the lighthouse, extremely unwilling.

"We are the targets of the Devourers; the Lighthouse is just a lump of iron to them," Victor said.

Buzz—

Just as everyone descended from the lighthouse, the giant-toothed double-jawed beast at the center of the beast tide opened its second inner maw, energy rapidly brewing in its throat, and a thermal ray spanned thousands of meters.

boom!!!

The heat flow collided with some indestructible object and instantly dissipated and split.

Still shaken, the crowd looked up and saw a hideous suit of armor. An anti-gravity force field propelled it into the air, surrounded by a blood-red glow. Its arms were raised in front of its chest as a shield, forcefully withstanding the biological rays.

"The Armor of the Abyss?!" The villagers were overjoyed.

But the next second, they all showed expressions of worry.

"Boss Bai, your body—" Xu Tong asked anxiously.

"Not bad, they won't die," Bai Yuekui's cold voice came from inside the armor. "The shielding device is almost fixed. Spread out and intercept the beasts. Don't let them get close to the village."

After saying that, she leaped out and flew straight towards the giant-toothed, two-jawed beast, braving the rays.

Bang bang bang!

A series of sonic booms followed, and after the last one, Bai Yuekui, dressed as the Abyss Walker, had already reached the top of the Giant Toothed Beast's head.

She took a deep breath and then plummeted downwards.

puff-

Like a nail, it pierced straight through the hard beast's head, protruding from the chin.

It wasn't over yet. Before her feet even touched the ground, she took flight again, brutally piercing the abdomen of the giant-toothed, double-jawed beast, and unleashing a flurry of punches into its internal organs. Terrifying muffled sounds echoed between heaven and earth.

Whoosh!

Bai Yuekui tore through its back and flew into the sky, ignoring the Giant Toothed Jawed Beast and instead heading straight for a Flower Calyx Beast.

boom-

To everyone's horror and ecstasy, the massive, mountain-like body of the Giant Toothed Beast exploded and dissolved like a pile of rotten mud.

"Is this the power it contains? It's truly breathtaking!" Dr. Carrie gazed at the scene, her face flushed with excitement.

Immediately afterwards, the sounds of flesh and blood exploding echoed from the beast tide. The five flower-calyx beasts stepped into the mortal world one by one and were torn to pieces by Bai Yuekui's bare hands.

She executed a backflip in mid-air, drawing an exaggerated arc as she landed in front of the lighthouse. Her toes barely touched the ground before she transformed into a blur and charged into the forefront of the beast horde.

Puff puff puff!

All that could be heard was the continuous cracking of flesh and bone. She didn't need to make any extra movements; she could physically disintegrate the supergeneous form simply by charging in.

What does it mean for blood to billow into the sky? What does it mean for meat to be ground by hand?

"Boss Bai is awesome!" a villager shouted.

"Is our village chief that strong?" Erica and the others were dumbfounded.

However, after shattering more than a dozen snake-dogs with a single punch, Bai Yuekui swayed and, unable to maintain his balance, knelt down on one knee, supporting himself on the ground with his hands and no longer moving.

"Oh no, Boss Bai's cells have been damaged too much. She can no longer use her abilities, and this will accelerate her aging," Shan Da said anxiously, having already woken up.

"Go! Bring back Boss Bai!" Po Kong took the lead.

Several Awakened Walkers skilled in close combat followed, including Wine Song, who could repair cells.

"Amur!" A sharp shout cut through the air.

Amur leaped forward, opened his mouth, and a shockwave surged out, sending several snake-dogs that were lunging at Bai Yuekui flying.

The taciturn man also thrust forward, using his physical body to take the brunt of two earth-roaring heat bombs.

Jiu Ge came up behind Bai Yue Kui and immediately began treating him as soon as he was free.

scoff!

With a flick of his wrists, Po Kong unleashed a burst of electric current, scorching the chicks that tried to sneak up on him until they were charred and cracked.

Just then, the giant rooster knocked away a group of snakes and dogs, and came speeding menacingly, its target being Bai Yuekui.

Two of the bamboo and the doorless one tried to block, but were swatted away like two ants.

"Make way."

A delicate yet sharp shout descended from the sky.

hum!

A long spear, like a dragon emerging from the abyss, pierced towards the rooster's forehead, which quickly raised its head and met the attack with its beak.

The cold gleam arrived first, followed closely by the wheat blossoms.

She grabbed the end of the spear, changed her thrust to a horizontal swing, and slammed it heavily into the three eyeballs on one side of the rooster, one of which burst with juice from the impact.

"I'll cover you." Having landed a successful blow, Maido pressed her advantage, relentlessly attacking, stabbing fiercely into the opponent's eyes.

"Hooray~"

A snake-dog with glowing blue eyes came running over in a silly manner and helped the group lift up the unsteady Bai Yuekui.

It was Xia Dou who was exerting mind control behind the scenes.

"I can walk. It's been a long time since I've commanded the Abyss," Bai Yuekui said calmly. "Where's Erii?"

The snake-dog stretched out its index finger and pointed to the sky.

Thud—

The next instant, the mutated flying Devouring Beast plummeted straight down, crashing into the giant rooster with tremendous force and precision, startling Maido into screaming and retreating repeatedly.

"Hey Erii, take it easy, you almost sent me to my death~"

Hiss!

Amidst the swirling dust, the sound of flesh tearing could be heard.

As the smoke cleared, Erii stepped onto the back of the flying Devourer and scattered the parts of the Devourer she had disassembled by hand all over the ground.

She lifted her dusty little face. "Are you all alright?"

"If you come back any later, something bad will happen." Bai Yuekui's voice finally revealed a hint of lightness.

A surge of heat erupted as she crawled out from the uncovered abyss. Jiu Ge immediately stepped forward and activated his potential to begin the healing process.

Erii swung her sword backhand without turning her head, activating her domain which covered a distance of over a thousand meters.

Any Devouring Beasts that entered this area automatically disintegrated, while she strolled leisurely to Bai Yuekui's side, eagerly staring at the steaming Lin Yuanzhe.

"Would you like to give it a try?" Bai Yuekui asked knowingly.

Erii nodded vigorously.

Bai Yuekui hesitated for a moment, then said, "If you sense something is wrong, come out immediately."

Erii jumped in with a "whoosh," and the Abyss Keeper automatically shut down.

In an instant, it began to drain Erii's life essence, with thin, sharp thorns piercing her skin.

Unexpectedly, it encountered unprecedented resistance; the skin and flesh did indeed become concave, but it was never able to pierce through.

Moreover, when Erii's hybrid human-dragon life essence was absorbed by the Abyss, it immediately trembled violently, exhibiting an extreme rejection reaction.

Yo?

He's still a stubborn mule!

Erii refused to believe it and took decisive action.

With a loud "bang," the Abyss-Dweller spiraled and plunged into the beast tide. It then seemed to be out of control, frantically darting around, sometimes crawling close to the ground, sometimes charging around wildly, its limbs flailing wildly and uncoordinated.

Despite its comical posture and chaotic movements, even the slightest touch of a little finger to a snake-dog can cause it to explode into a cloud of blood mist in the blink of an eye!

After all that commotion, the wasteland was littered with corpses, a scene of carnage and blood from the Devouring Beasts.

"Huh? Boss, is this right?" Xu Tong asked blankly.

"The Abyss is rejecting her, like a body rejecting something. Well, system incompatibility is more accurate," Bai Yuekui said, somewhat amused. "It seems I was overthinking it. Her body is more mysterious than I imagined. This is the first time I've felt restless and uneasy in front of the Abyss."

No sooner had she finished speaking than a "ber" was heard, and the hatch of the Abyssman suddenly sprang open, forcibly sending the honest and unassuming Erii into the air.

Erii pouted and glanced resentfully at Lin Yuanzhe, who was standing motionless on the ground.

Upon seeing this scene, everyone couldn't help but laugh. The tense and solemn atmosphere was broken, as if the horde of beasts covering the mountains and fields had turned into ants.

Having had her fill of play, Erii turned to face the surging tide of beasts, stretched out her right arm, and slowly raised it.

The dragon script was recited in the □, and the incantation transformed into the empress's command, summoning the two elements of wind and earth that filled the world.

hum~~~

Elemental ripples rippled around her, causing Bai Yuekui and his group to instinctively retreat back to the lighthouse.

call! ! !

The gale swept through, growing ever stronger, and the corpses were sliced ​​into nothingness.

Grains of sand were swept up by the wind, forming a golden sandstorm.

Erii's eyes shone with dazzling golden light, her red hair surged wildly, and she shouted in a resounding voice, "Rise! (Dragon Pattern)"

""

boom-

Every grain of sand, every wisp of air, was entangled by the killing intent of the Word of Power.

Therefore, what surged toward the beast tide under her command was not just a simple sandstorm, but a genuine judgment sandstorm!

The sandstorm spread endlessly, forming a massive, all-encompassing mountain range in just half a minute!

Erii's breathing quickened, and her arms trembled slightly.

This was the first time she had deployed her domain on such a large scale, so it was normal to feel some strain. In the past, she would never have been able to do this; she would have been killed by the backlash of the dragon blood before the attack could even be launched.

"I really suspect that the Lord of Light and Shadow that Charles saw back then was her." Mo Cheng was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth.

"Holy crap, are we really the same species as her?" Po Kong found it utterly absurd, but couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Kolova opened her mouth, then shrugged. "Who knows?"

Ulan Aodeng said, "That's not important."

"Eri is awesome!" Mydo cheered.

"A traveler? So where did you come from? Your understanding of the old world is beyond your age, and the power you possess is beyond the scope of Mana ecology and technology." Bai Yuekui murmured to himself. The more he got to know Erii, the more unfathomable this girl seemed.

Just as everyone in Lighthouse and Dragonbone Village was discussing the matter, the Judgment Sandstorm had already enveloped what seemed to be an endless tide of beasts.

The mighty wind became the only melody of heaven and earth. When the music ended and the sand settled, there was nothing as far as the eye could see, as if the roar of the beasts was just a dream.

"Phew~" Erii let out a sigh of relief, spread her arms and did a couple of stretches. Not satisfied, she turned her back to everyone and did a set of Professor Hugh Talke's post-workout stretching exercises.

Suddenly, she stopped gesturing wildly and squinted at the ridge piled with bones.

The crowd stopped whispering and looked over as well.

A low, labored breathing sound was approaching, like an old man on his deathbed, making his last struggle.

Rumble~

One hand climbs up the mountain, followed by the other.

With a forceful pull of both hands, the enormous Devouring Beast flipped over and then tumbled down in a disheveled state.

Its flesh is decaying and rotting at a visible rate, to the point that it is no longer recognizable.

It crawled toward Erii, panting heavily, its four eyes, now completely exposed after the skin and flesh had peeled away, staring intently at her.

Until it stops moving completely.

And so, this high-level mutated form, comparable to the giant-toothed bijawed beast, made its appearance and died in front of everyone in an absurd way, leaving everyone completely baffled as to what it had come all this way for.

It dissolved, leaving only its complete skeleton lying on the wasteland.

"Don't move." Bai Yuekui grabbed Maiduo, who wanted to check on her, his expression extremely serious.

"What's there?" Erii said, turning around and pointing to the middle of her thick ribs.

Shandong University students took out their binoculars or gun scopes and examined the object carefully.

"An egg?"

"What the heck? It's clearly a flower stamen, a Mana flower!"

"It doesn't look like it. There's no such thing as white. I can't figure out what it is."

There was a cacophony of voices, but no one gave a definitive answer, and no one acted rashly; everyone remained focused on observing.

"I have a bad feeling," Ulan Aodeng said in a low voice.

"Hmm." Bai Yuekui's eyebrows furrowed slightly, like a cat whose fur was gradually standing on end.

"Cocoon," Erii said, finding it very similar.

"Cocoon?" Bai Yuekui repeated, his pupils contracting instantly.

click!

The so-called cocoon has broken.

At a height of approximately three meters, the white, filamentous outer shell showed signs of cracking.

With a snap, a withered, sharp human hand pierced through, tearing open a crack. An eye peered out, searching for a moment before clearly locking onto Erii.

"Snap—Snap—"

The cocoon emitted a harsh sound, like a string being pulled and plucked.

"Clattery~ You—heretical—you, you—don't belong here—you don't belong on this planet—"

I, I will eliminate you—you greedy thief!
