On hearing that, Wu Chengyue immediately held her arm and swiftly brought her away from where they were. Xiao Licheng and Yun Meng both flashed away as well. Of course, Lin Qiao had conveniently thrown the underground gorilla that was lying on the ground into the woods in her s.p.a.ce before she talked to Wu Chengyue.
A couple of seconds after they moved away, countless underground gorillas came out of the hole. Most of them were larger than the ones showed up earlier, and two were even as large as bulls.
A strong and violent vibe spread in all directions once the two gigantic gorillas showed up.
Within a blink, the two huge underground gorillas showed up near the four which had been blown into pieces by Wu Chengyue. Tens of underground gorillas followed them over, quickly picked up those body pieces, and brought them back toward the cave.
The two huge ones stayed there and sniffed around while moving from side to side, seemingly looking for something. After a short while of searching, they stopped, then rushed toward Wu Chengyue and Xiao Licheng.
Wu Chengyue took a few steps backward and then stopped as he remembered to keep the distance between Lin Qiao and himself within a hundred meters. After that, he raised a hand and gave the huge underground gorilla a lightning strike.
Boom!
Lin Qiao moved to a corner that was tens of meters away from Wu Chengyue and watched him fight that huge creature.
The lightning didn’t hit the underground gorilla as it dodged in time and charged at Wu Chengyue again, not seeming to sense Lin Qiao’s presence.
Maybe because Wu Chengyue’s vibe was highly threatening to it or his lightning power frightened it, the bull-sized underground gorilla had its entire body glowing with a red light, and its vibe growing stronger and stronger.
“Roar…” It opened its mouth wide and gave Wu Chengyue a resonant roar, then attacked him again.
It was very fast; within one second, it disappeared from where it was and reappeared in the sky, over ten meters away from the ground, as it swung its claws at Wu Chengyue.
Wu Chengyue dodged, then raised his arms and threw out a bolt of lightning. The lightning sizzled across the sky and descended toward the underground gorilla that was pouncing down toward him.
Bang!
The lightning struck on the underground gorilla and sent it flying again. Soon, it fell on the ground and caused a m.u.f.fled thud. The creature landed a little too close to Lin Qiao, so she quietly flashed to the side to stay away from it.
The underground gorilla gasped loudly for air. It stayed on the ground for two seconds, then struggled up and shook its head.
Lin Qiao noticed that the area from its chest to its left shoulder had turned black, and a faint b.l.o.o.d.y scent could be sensed from it. She couldn’t help but furrow her brows.
That lightning strike from Wu Chengyue could blow a rock that weighed hundreds of kilograms into pieces, yet it only left a few scratches on the creature’s skin.
The underground gorilla shook its head, then suddenly disappeared from where it was. On the other side, Wu Chengyue knitted his eyebrows and immediately flashed to the side.
Boom! A red figure landed on where he was standing before and created a meters wide pit on the ground. The ferocious creature, which was glowing with red light, was standing in the middle of the pit.
At the same time, the other gigantic gorilla was chasing Xiao Licheng crazily. Xiao Licheng’s level-six earth power could not stop that creature’s fierce claws.
He raised a half-meter-thick earth wall, but the creature shattered it with one strike. Stone thorns and earth blades broke into pieces against its skin without causing it any harm; it didn’t even have to dodge.
Yun Meng turned into a beast and wagged her thick and long lizard tail as she swung her claws at the gigantic gorilla. Her claws were sharp, but only managed to cut broken the creature’s skin.
Xiao Licheng made a roll on the ground and hid behind a hill to dodge the gorilla’s attacks temporarily.
The gorilla had its eyes on Xiao Licheng the whole time. It ignored Yun Meng’s at first, but after the latter left over ten wounds on its body, it gave her a raging roar.
“Roar!”
Next, when Yun Meng charged at it again, it suddenly moved its feet and turned its body, swinging its muscular arm and swiftly slapping her away.
Bang! Yun Meng was thrown over twenty meters away and fell into a pile of stones, causing a m.u.f.fled thud.
“Eh-hem-hem-hem… d.a.m.n! So difficult!” Yun Meng coughed out some black blood and caught her breath as she complained, then quickly got up from the ground.
After sending Yun Meng away, the underground gorilla suddenly had its body glowing with a red light. Next, it turned into a red shred of shadow, flas.h.i.+ng toward Xiao Licheng.
‘This is bad !’ Xiao Licheng immediately turned and ran.
Bang! A thunderous sound was heard from behind him once he started running. He turned to find a huge pit where he stood before, stone pieces flying all over the sky.
The two giant gorillas had been seeing Xiao Licheng and Wu Chengyue as their targets. They focused on the two men without taking Yun Meng seriously.
Xiao Licheng and Yun Meng had no chance of winning against that gigantic gorilla, not even when combined.
Wu Chengyue was halving the pressure though. His first lightning strike didn’t bring the gorilla a severe harm, but the effect of his attack started to show when he aimed at the same spot for the second and third strikes.
Bang! Another thunder was heard as Wu Chengyue aimed at the underground gorilla’s shoulder and chest and launched an attack.
“Roar…” This time, the gorilla gave a raging roar under the pain and was slowed down.
Lin Qiao was purely watching. As Wu Chengyue had regained his advantage, she turned to look at Xiao Licheng.
The two gigantic gorillas were one of the level-seven ones mentioned in Lin Feng’s report. Their vibe was as strong as that of some level-seven mutated beasts, but they didn’t seem to have superpowers, and only fought with their strength.
Xiao Licheng was under great pressure, as one of the two level-seven gorillas was having its eyes on him. A strong sense of crisis was shrouding him the whole time, which grew even stronger when he saw Yun Meng being slapped away.
As he prepared to dodge the gorilla’s next attack, something suddenly grasped his waist. Next, the world before his eyes turned upside down. He was carried on someone’s shoulder and brought away!
Yes, he was carried away!
