Volume 1 Chapter 411
byChapter 411: Don’t Go, There Are Too Many of Them!
In just a moment, everyone with some understanding in the crowd had come to the same realization.
This guy who jumped out, unless he is also "born with great power," could never be a match for that giant serpent monster.
The extraordinary energy coming from him is only at the beginner epic level.
He is even weaker than Julie.
Of course, if he were legendary, then the earlier "hint" wouldn’t have been so ineffective.
So when everyone saw him charging towards the giant snake, they were somewhat confused.
"What is he doing… Why isn’t he running away?"
Ling said with clear confusion.
Krado teased Ling and shrugged his shoulders.
"Maybe he thinks he can win."
"No, he can’t win," Ling shook her head, "Not only is he not strong enough, even if he wanted to fight to the death… this move is just too weak."
The purple light had already wrapped around the giant snake’s neck and was starting to tighten.
The original effect of this mystical technique should have been to strangle the enemy to death.
But clearly, it did not cause any real harm to the giant snake.
It couldn’t even restrain its movements.
Instead, the giant snake shook its head, sending the tall mysterious man flying into the air through the connection of the several light beams.
"Isn’t this pointless…"
Florence also started to complain.
Only Lolth shook her head.
She looked at the man in the air and squinted her eyes.
"No, this move is just right for a life-and-death struggle."
Those purple light bands suddenly tightened, pulling his body forcefully toward the giant snake.
Ling was stunned for a moment, then understood what Lolth was saying.
This move was indeed used for a life-and-death struggle, but it was not the move meant for that fight.
His goal was to get close to the giant snake’s head.
"Could this guy really be born with incredible strength?"
Ling mumbled to herself, becoming even more confused.
What is this warlock doing, getting close to the monster?
But this question did not last long.
Soon, the man in the sky gave the answer.
As he rushed toward the giant snake, the snake, not sensing any threat, opened its mouth wide for this intruder.
It almost looked like it would swallow him whole.
And in that moment.
A powerful, extraordinary energy suddenly erupted from the man, stronger than his own abilities.
It was as if all his magical power was boiling over, and a purple light shone from beneath his robe…
Lolth silently took out a pair of sunglasses and put them on.
Then, just before the person in the sky was about to enter the giant snake’s mouth…
"Boom!!!"
A bright purple light, as dazzling as the sun, lit up in the air, and the shockwave from the explosion suddenly knocked everyone and all the monsters off balance.
He self-destructed!
The power of the self-detonation was comparable to a level nine destructive magic, erupting in an instant, releasing a huge amount of magical energy from the epic hero, enough to severely injure that legendary level monster from such a close distance.
Moreover, the giant snake had opened its mouth willingly!
A situation even more horrific than being hit by Lolth’s punch occurred to the proud legendary level middle-tier monster, as it sprayed blood from its mouth, its sharp teeth shattered, and both its upper and lower jaws contorted in strange shapes.
The huge snake’s head once again fell limply, revealing many traces of being "eroded" by dark gray abnormal magic inside its mouth.
Although he wasn’t killed directly by the explosion, he had completely lost his fighting ability!
Watching this scene, Lolth nodded with a sense of emotion.
"The last one really wasn’t a cultist…"
"This real cultist explosion is definitely different!"
When the person Julie pulled out exploded, only their head was blown off.
It didn’t even cause any real damage to Julie.
But this time, it was clearly different.
If the previous explosion was like a small firecracker, this one was like a big fireworks display.
It’s definitely not just because this time it was an epic explosion, while the last one was extraordinary.
In terms of self-destruction, there is clearly a difference in efficiency.
The gathering and timing of magical power, and even the self-destruction of cultists after they explode, release a second wave of the Power of the Evil God—those powers stuck inside the giant snake’s mouth are the main reason for its serious injury and loss of combat ability.
Although an explosion can also cause serious injury, the recovery ability of a legendary-level monster ensures that such wounds are not fatal.
This is the difference between the two sides’ self-destruction.
One side wants to erase all evidence, while the other even uses their own life as a consumable and weapon.
In terms of the power of self-destruction, the cultists are the winners!
Of course, Lolth agrees.
After all, regardless of whether the person who just exploded next to Julie was from the Royal Institution of the United Kingdom of South Sotua, at least he was not a cultist.
Only cultists believe that the more people die in any situation, the better, which is why their self-destruction is so unreserved.
But the "spy" is different.
For them, the main goal is indeed to "destroy the evidence."
Sometimes they cannot make too much noise when they explode.
However, no matter what, the moment the legendary giant snake fell and the cultist self-destructed marked the end of the battle between them.
It also marked the beginning of total chaos.
"Ah—"
Deep within the monster swarm, as the giant snake fell heavily, a cry of pain rang out.
About one-fifth of the monsters suddenly became chaotic and restless!
"It’s backfiring…"
Lolth knew very well what had happened.
The person who made a contract with the giant snake was harmed too much, and his own spell returned to hurt him!
Meanwhile, all the magical creatures he controlled fell into chaos.
This was undoubtedly a "moment" of opportunity.
While the situation was chaotic, one person controlling a magical creature finally "revealed" their location.
In that moment, even those who had not realized who the magician was understood that a chance had come.
Many groups of mercenaries tried to rush into the chaotic crowd of magical creatures.
A few stronger mercenaries hesitated, deciding whether to go after the exposed person’s location and strike!
Raven clearly had this in mind and reached for the axe at her waist.
But Lolth stopped her and shook her head.
"Don’t go, there are too many of them."
Lolth kindly reminded her.
Raven listened to Lolth and quickly realized what she meant.
Only one-fifth of the monsters were confused, which meant there could still be four of his companions who had not been revealed!
If she acted now, she might be attacked by his friends!
