Rewind time to the instant before Hewitt self-destructed, in the game grounds of the grand escape.
After the octagonal tower tool spirit realized that it wasn’t well-prepared, it quickly turned its attention to Chu Feng and the others.
It wasn’t that it was desperate, but that it had sensed some kind of chance to live from the young man whom many in the audience respected as a G.o.d.
In that instant when it didn’t even have time to think, the octagonal tower tool spirit didn’t think too much about it. It didn’t think that the Beastmaster could really be compared to Hewitt, who was comparable to a G.o.d Lord. It only thought that the other party had a powerful special tool, so powerful that it could even block a portion of the force unleashed by the explosion of a G.o.d Lord-realm G.o.d country!
The only reason why the octagonal tool spirit only thought that the “tool” could block “a portion” was mainly that it didn’t think that an immortal Beastmaster could surpa.s.s a G.o.d.
!!
Just the things that G.o.d Chu had shown earlier had already far exceeded the limits of an immortal-level Beastmaster. How could he be any stronger than that?
“If it wasn’t for Hewitt disobeying my orders and going crazy thus self-destructing, a mere immortal wouldn’t have been able to escape from my grasp!” At this moment, even as it fled for its life, the octagonal tower tool spirit didn’t forget to curse inwardly. Even though it knew that its plan had gone awry, it was still very confident that it would be the last victor to emerge!
Due to the few successful experiences in the grand escape this round, when he realized that Hewitt’s G.o.d country was about to explode, it chose to turn into smoke as usual.
However, this time, it did not spread out to the large game ground. Instead, it had a clear direction.
A formless mist went where the three men and one lady were, only to be twisted with anger due to the impregnable protective barrier.
The octagonal tower tool spirit knew that it was weaker than G.o.d Kings, but did not expect to be at a disadvantage before an immortal kid. To think it couldn’t even break through several layers of barriers and find a loophole to enter!
Stopped outside the barrier, the octagonal tower tool spirit couldn’t help but mutter in its heart, “With such terrifying strength, is he really just an immortal? How is that possible?!”
Even some extremely powerful true G.o.d Beastmasters might not be able to fight against an “immortal” like G.o.d Chu!
The octagonal tower tool spirit felt uneasy, but when it thought of the message sent by the mysterious person, as well as the G.o.d Lord realm G.o.d country that was about to explode behind it…
“Forget it. If I can’t enter the barrier, I might not be able to survive this tribulation,” In its anxiety, the octagonal tower tool spirit suddenly discovered a “loophole”, and immediately took advantage of that short moment to slip in.
The time was too short that the octagonal tower tool spirit didn’t even question the coincidence.
Only the two humanoid beasts, who could sense what their Beastmaster was sensing during battle, noticed Chu Feng’s slightly curled lips.
“This is just like a moth flying into a flame, seeking its own destruction!”
Then, without waiting for the humans and beasts to sense it carefully, the earth-shattering explosion made everyone dazed.
For a moment, Heaven and Earth lost their color.
Even the real-time connection network between the game ground and the underground dark net, which had always existed, was cut off by the extraordinary G.o.d country explosion.
The “grand escape” game ground was also destroyed, reconstructed, and destroyed again due to the terrifying storm… Even the game s.p.a.ce, which was just nothingness, collapsed countless times in an instant.
It wasn’t just this game ground. The few or even dozens of game grounds that were connected to it were affected by the impact as well.
As for the grand escape game ground that Chu Feng and the others were in, it was disconnected from the underground dark net for seven minutes due to the explosion of Hewitt’s G.o.d country.
These few minutes were blank for most of the humans and beasts.
Many beings that had 100% affinity with the star players but were much weaker and had frail physiques had their souls injured by the overly violent stimulation and were forced to go offline. There was no need to mention the chaos outside the game grounds.
At this moment, the humans and beasts who were still alive in the grand escape had suffered far more serious injuries than the spectators outside! Even Chu Feng, who was the strongest and whose real combat strength was comparable to a G.o.d Venerable, could not help but be dazed for a moment by the explosion that was so close to him.
At that moment, his mind was like a big bag that had been broken and could hold nothing… The world was blank, and even he himself was nothing.
In that instant, Chu Feng seemed to have thought of nothing, but at the same time, he seemed to have thought of everything.
Fortunately, the trance only lasted for an instant.
He came back to his senses and waved his hand, strengthening the barrier to withstand the shockwaves of the explosion that continued to crash down from the outside. Chu Feng looked around and found that the others were lying in the void, holding their heads in pain.
“Luo Ya, Taotie, are you guys okay?” There was no response. A hint of panic flashed in his eyes. He cast a few full-level mythical healing spells in succession, but they seemed to be of no use. The beasts seemed to have been shocked by the powerful a.s.sault.
“Chu Feng, bring Xiao Ya and Xiao Tie into the beast s.p.a.ce. Let me take a look,” Lila’s gentle voice rang in his mind.
“Mhm,” Chu Feng replied, hurriedly bringing the two into the beast world.
As soon as they entered the beast s.p.a.ce, many beasts pounced on him. The Astral Spirit Hera lay on the Beastmaster’s right shoulder and rubbed against his cheek, receiving a few absent-minded ma.s.sages. Clearly, unlike his calm appearance, Chu Feng was fl.u.s.tered.
Fortunately, the two humanoid beasts were only tranced due to the shock and weren’t in any danger. In fact, even if there had been something, they would’ve recovered to their peak condition under Chu Feng’s many and continuous healing skills. The Mirage b.u.t.terfly, who had profound spiritual attainments, cast another soul-calming skill, and in less than two minutes, Luo Ya and Taotie returned to normal.
Then, they comforted their Beastmaster instead, “Boss, don’t worry. We’re fine.”
“Haha, Let’s go out and kill the enemy!”
Hearing the two of them say that, Chu Feng was still worried. He only brought them out after confirming that they were really fine.
When they reached the game ground outside, the shockwaves were still as before.
Chu Feng had set up a total of five barriers. The outermost one had long been destroyed by the terrifying a.s.sault at the moment of the G.o.d country’s explosion.
After that, he only repaired the four innermost barriers.
After entering the beast s.p.a.ce and coming out again, Lou Xiao was still in a daze, looking as if he was about to die. Chu Feng frowned. After casting the max-level miracle of life on the other party, he didn’t care anymore.
No one was responsible for the lives of others. No matter who was stronger, who was weaker, or what kind of ident.i.ty or relationship they had, no one had the right to control others.
“Eh? Boss, is this that so-called octagonal tower tool spirit?” Taotie’s voice rang out, attracting the Beastmaster’s attention.
“Xiao Tie, are you stupid?” Luo Ya patted the head of the boy beside her, feeling a little helpless, “Who else other than the octagonal tower tool spirit can sneak in and use us as a shield when the other true G.o.d wolf self-destructs?”
“Oh right, it can only be him.”
Chu Feng walked over and looked at the half-dead octagonal tower tool spirit outside. A deep killing intent flashed in his eyes.
Luo Ya and Taotie, who shared the same feeling with him, did not need instructions. They looked at each other and started to move.
One was responsible for binding and injuring the opponent’s soul while the other focused on devouring.
