Chapter 189: Epic-Ranked Human
There were many powerful weapons hidden in the armored wall. Many of them were super weapons, but they did not dare use them at that moment. They could only use less lethal ones to avoid harming the innocent.
The Epic-ranked creature was planning to act fierce, but at that moment, a group of people rushed out of Area B. The group of people shouted, “Epic Boss, let’s hurry up and kill it. We can complete the Level-50 quest!”
Everyone exclaimed when they saw the group of people. “These are the fearless people from three years ago. They’ve appeared again.”
These people were still showing off. “Kill the Epic-ranked creature, beat its bones, and skin it!”
However, the Epic-ranked mutant slapped down.
“Slurp!”
The players were all killed.
Everyone was speechless.
Before long, another group of players rushed out and shouted, “Go! Don’t be afraid of death when tasked with the quest of defending the city. You will be rewarded if you have high damage output!”
The Epic-ranked mutant slapped down again.
“Slurp!”
The players were wiped out again.
A look of admiration appeared on the gigantic mutant’s face. “I underestimated humans. I didn’t expect them to be so fearless. Such courage is enough to help one occupy a spot among all races.”
Everyone praised the group. “These people were not afraid of sacrifice three years ago. They were not afraid of death. They saved us.”
Another group of players was smashed into meat paste.
The players did not dare move forward. This Epic-ranked creature was too terrifying. It could kill them like dogs.
“This is too much. We are not its match!”
“I’ve died five times!”
The gigantic mutant roared, “Humans are born with unlimited potential and fearlessness! I can’t let you humans grow. Die!”
The gigantic mutant suddenly turned around and aimed its sharp tail at everyone. This sweep would probably cut countless people in half.
Someone shouted, “Get down!”
Everyone immediately lay down, but there were still a few people left standing. A few of them shouted when they saw them, “Why aren’t you lying down? Do you want to die?”
The gigantic mutant sneered, and its sharp tail rubbed against the ground. Lightning sparks kept popping up along the way. This sweep would kill everyone. They would not be spared even if they lay down.
At that moment, a person at the front suddenly took a few steps forward and kicked the mutant’s tail.
Someone exclaimed, “Is that person crazy? He actually used his body to block the tail of an Epic-ranked creature.”
Someone said, “That person must be terrified and dumbfounded. This Epic-ranked creature is too terrifying!”
However, a moment later, everyone clearly heard a crack!
Soon, a miserable scream was heard. The gigantic mutant started crying out in pain, as its tail had snapped on the two-third mark. Its bones were cracked, and blood splattered everywhere. Its sharp and thick tail turned into a ‘7’ shape.
The Junior Brother was shocked when he saw this scene. “It’s him!”
The Eldest Senior Brother asked hurriedly, “Which mighty person is he?”
The Junior Brother said, “I don’t know his name, but I met him when I was selling spicy gluten snacks today. We had an interaction. He seemed to be very interested in my spicy snacks. He even said that he was going to partic.i.p.ate in the auction in three days.”
The words of the Junior Brother attracted everyone’s attention. A powerful person was actually interested in a pack of spicy snacks. Wasn’t that spicy snack a common item?
The Eldest Senior Brother was speechless. His Junior Brother had been studying marketing and never forgot to promote his goods. He had probably done it on purpose.
The gigantic creature curbed its fear. Its tail was broken, and its heart ached. It looked at Wei Huo in disbelief. “Who are you? No, what kind of monster are you? Humans only appeared five years ago. Such a powerful person couldn’t possibly have been born!”
The gigantic creature used its own language, so no one knew what it was talking about. However, Wei Huo heard it clearly.
He said, “You’re wrong. I’m a real human.”
Wei Huo took a step forward. Due to his imposing aura, the gigantic creature could not help but take a step back. However, a moment later, it roared, “Humanity’s potential is too strong! Humans are our enemy. They cannot be left untouched!”
A wave of imposing aura spread out. Although the gigantic mutant looked huge, it still had an ant’s head. It planned to send a message to the alliance army in the distance and tell them what had happened. That way, it could send a message even if it died.
However, Wei Huo reached out and grabbed it. The wave was instantly cut off. The gigantic creature was terrified. “This is impossible!”
The Epic-ranked mutant knew that it could not escape. This human was too terrifying. He could even cut off the imposing aura. His strength was definitely above the Epic stage!
The Epic-ranked mutant started attacking ordinary people. It roared, “Legend has it that humans are incarnations of the Dao! One can enter the Legendary stage by consuming 100,000 humans. Today, I will fight!”
However, Wei Huo suddenly appeared by its side and kicked it in the back.
Everyone heard a crisp crack.
The Epic-ranked creature’s spine broke instantly and it was sent flying hundreds of meters away before crashing into the armored wall. The city wall shook.
Wei Huo had not killed it because he had something to ask.
“Where did you hear that?”
Who had spread the rumor about consuming hundreds of thousands of humans? This was clearly a plan to malign someone into doing the dirty deed for them.
The Epic-ranked mutant spat out a mouthful of green blood. Its spine was broken, and its body could not move. However, it refused to give in. “You want me to tell you? Do you think that’s possible?”
Wei Huo did not waste any more time talking. He lifted his hand and got ready to slap it. There were memories stored in the soul gem. There was no need to ask more questions. He just needed to search for memories in the soul gem.
However, a moment later, the Epic-ranked mutant immediately shouted, “It’s possible! It’s possible! I’ll tell you everything. Don’t kill me!”
There was only hope if one lived. If one died, there would be nothing left. It felt terrified when it saw Wei Huo slap its head.
Wei Huo took out the Ruyi PaG.o.da. “You better tell the truth!”
He wanted to complete the Ruyi PaG.o.da’s upgraded quest to suppress 10 Epic-ranked creatures, so he did not kill it yet.
The Epic-ranked mutant was terrified. “I’ve told you everything. These words were said by a Legendary-ranked Ant. It said that it successfully entered the Legendary stage because it swallowed 100,000 humans 30 years ago. That’s why we formed an alliance to attack the human city, capture humans, and rear them.”
Humans could not understand the Epic-ranked creature’s foreign language, so they did not know what it was talking about. However, Wei Huo’s mind was filled with the image of an old Demonic Ant talking wildly to coax the ants into attacking humans.
Wei Huo took out the Ruyi PaG.o.da and put the Epic-ranked mutant inside. He then shouted, “I’ll give you a chance to repent. I’ll suppress you for 50 years.”
When they saw such a huge mutant being suppressed in an instant, everyone’s eyes widened in disbelief.
The players were even more confused. They immediately used the system to search for Wei Huo’s information, but they were all confused.
“F*ck, his attributes are all replaced by question marks.”
“He’s definitely an Epic-ranked human.”
Someone heard the players’ conversation and exclaimed, “He’s an Epic-ranked human?”
Everyone was shocked. They could not believe that an Epic-ranked expert was standing in front of them.
However, at that moment, the sound of 10,000 troops approaching came from outside the city. The Ants’ army was beginning to attack the Soaring Cloud City!
