Chapter 496 - A Monster That Knows How To Fool Others
A barrier separated the two of them. Klein frowned as he pondered how to open the barrier.
At that moment, James had already begun a life-and-death battle with the monster.
James conjured a bow and arrow in his hand as he rapidly retreated, preparing to maintain a certain distance from the monster.
Thankfully, the s.p.a.ce in the cage was large enough, so it wasn"t to the point of forcing people into a corner and rendering them unable to move.
At this moment, Klein had already summoned the Endless Sword and slashed at the iron cage in front of him.
With a bang, sparks flew in all directions. Klein"s arm went numb from the shock and he took two steps back.
Only then did he realize that the iron cage wasn"t made of ordinary metal.
Instead, it was made of a special meteorite that was extremely hard. The powerful Endless Sword in his hand only managed to create a few cracks in the iron cage.
Klein frowned tightly as he raised the Endless Sword in his hand and slashed down again.
The sound of metal clashing was incessant, and James frowned tightly.
Just from hearing the commotion, he could already guess Klein"s current situation.
That"s right. Due to the intense impact, not only did Klein"s arm go numb, but his hand had been split open, causing blood to spew out.
There was once when he saw the hard iron cage send the Endless Sword flying. With a clang, the weapon fell to the ground.
At that moment, there was a gap in the iron cage. Klein gripped the gap tightly with his hand and tried his best to pull the two sides apart!
Ordinary people were naturally no match for this hard iron cage, but Klein was different.
He gathered all of his strength in his hands and chanted the command in his heart. A golden light twined between his hands.
That"s right, Klein had used a special spell. This was a skill he had just learned, and he had yet to use it once.
This was a skill at the highest level of tier 8 magic. By infusing all of his strength into his hands, he could erupt with tremendous energy.
However, there was a small flaw in this skill. After using it, there would be a three-day cooldown period, and within three days, Klein"s condition would change due to the use of the skill.
"Ah!"
A heart-wrenching howl sounded as the iron cage was shattered.
With a cracking sound, a huge gap appeared. Seeing this, James hurriedly ran out through the gap.
He was a long-range mage to begin with, so the s.p.a.ce inside was too small. He really couldn"t use it.
At this moment, although James wasn"t injured, he was exhausted by that fellow. He didn"t want to continue fighting.
"Klein, you"re really something. What method did you use to open this terrifying iron cage?" Klein didn"t have time to explain because the demon beast, whose appet.i.te had been interrupted, was already walking towards them with heavy steps,
The monster punched the iron cage and actually shattered it.
The fragments flew out as the two of them hurriedly dodged. This was the powerful strength of the huge monster, which left everyone dumbfounded.
It actually had such great strength. If such strength was used on a human, it would probably have been smashed into a b.l.o.o.d.y mess and become a pie.
At this moment, James was somewhat suspicious of Klein"s choice.
Klein had vowed to choose the s.p.a.ce on the upper left, but in the end, it didn"t have any scarce resources. Instead, it had a monster that he could use his skills to deal with.
The opening of the blind box was too tragic.
Klein remained unmoved. He picked up the Endless Sword from the ground and formed a standoff with the monster.
Klein asked, "Do you know what kind of background this monster has?"
James blinked his eyes. What kind of background could it have?
James thought for a moment and said, "It looks like a flood beast that has lived here for thousands of years and has gone mad from hunger?"
Klein shook his head gently. This thing was the legendary Beast of Heaven.
"Although it"s extremely difficult to deal with, there are other treasures hidden in its body!"
Other than the Philosopher"s Stone, which Klein was determined to obtain, there were also some scattered materials.
Even the skin, flesh, and blood of a monster were excellent raw materials to refine a divine artifact.
Upon hearing Klein"s words, James" eyes lit up.
He finally understood Klein"s true intention when he said that fortune and misfortune depended on each other.
Even if they entered other dimensions, the resources and treasures they could obtain were limited.
They might as well give it their all and kill the monster in front of them. It would definitely be a great harvest.
Thinking of this, James once again drew his bow and drew his arrow. A cloud piercing arrow flew over.
At this moment, the shape of the monster changed once again.
Other than having great strength and a huge appet.i.te, the Beast of Heaven was also good at setting up camouflage.
Having such great strength but liking to use schemes and schemes was one of the characteristics of the Beast of Heaven.
However, once the Beast of Heaven was exposed, this seemingly c.r.a.ppy scheme would turn abnormally agitated and angry, resulting in it entering a state of frenzy.
As for the Beast of Heaven that had entered a state of frenzy, it had basically lost its original intelligence.
This was the best opportunity for Klein to make his move!
He shot into the sky and gathered all his strength onto the sharp blade in his hand.
Then, he suddenly plunged down and slashed at the other party"s head.
The skin of the gigantic Beast of Heaven was rough and thick. Even when faced with the Endless Sword that could cut through gold and jade, it wasn"t much weaker.
There was a sound that made one"s teeth ache.
A huge gash appeared on the gigantic beast"s head, and blood spewed out, spraying all over Klein"s face.
Klein felt that this was the blood and sweat of a monster that was extremely hot.
It was as if it was going to burn all of his skin.
Klein quivered from the heat, and his entire body fell to the ground with a thud.
The behemoth with a head injury let out another howl as it struggled to charge at the two intruding enemies!
The battle just now had given Klein considerable confidence in his weapon, the Endless Sword.
In fact, the previous attack was only a small blow, and there was still more to come!
Klein struggled to stand up from the ground and brandished the blade.
The Endless Sword was like a balloon that had been injected with hydrogen, rapidly expanding.
Other than the hilt in Klein"s hand, the entire blade was infinitely magnified.
Even James, who was standing beside him, was given a fright. He quickly hid far away in fear of being accidentally injured.
As for the infinitely magnified Endless Sword, it didn"t seem to have any weight in Klein"s hands. It could still be used very easily.
Facing the giant beast that pounced at him again, Klein gripped the hilt of his knife tightly with both hands. He brandished the extra-large infinite blade and slashed at it viciously!
With a whoosh, the giant beast was instantly cut in half in the huge s.p.a.ce.
That"s right, it was indeed cut in the middle!
And in order to avoid the spurting hot blood, Klein hurriedly flew backward.
Then, he summoned the nameless cloak and enveloped his entire body.
Klein could even feel the huge commotion of the blood spurting out.
Thankfully, the nameless cloak was surrounded by a powerful enchantment. It could block all attacks, but it wasn"t stained with a single drop of blood!
