Vol 5 Chapter 31.2 (1/2)
Chapter 31 – Gold Behemoth (II)
————————————————————————————
The fire burned intensely on the mountain. The Apemen, Tigermen, and Leopardmen were frantically running away in all directions. Gold Behemoths Dis and Perkins began divvying up tasks whilst they flew uphill. At this moment, every Behemoth had eyes filled with endless rage. As long as they reached the mountain peak, even if there were Gigantic Dragons, they would tear their enemies to shreds.
At last, Dis was the first to step atop the mountain peak. As an arrogant rank 9 magical beast, he didn’t fear the possibility of an enemy ambush. As he climbed the mountain, however, his heart was filled with such intense anger that it nearly exploded.
At that moment, to their surprise, the enemy they, the most unparalleled military force on the continent, actually confronted was thin air. Yes, that was right. Atop the mountain peak, apart from the chilly air, there was nothing. In the surroundings, only chopped-off tree stumps remained. It was absolutely empty; don’t mention humans, there wasn’t even a single ant.
“Bas——tard——!” Dis’ two eyes reddened in fury as he snarled wrathfully. He suddenly bent over, pounding his fists against the ground explosively.
Perkins moved quickly. Upon seeing Dis’ violent reaction, he immediately jumped away. The reaction time of the four Silver Behemoth also wasn’t bad as they all leapt back down the mountain immediately. When compared to Dis’ rage, the mountain fire was like floating clouds. The Berserk Behemoths weren’t as lucky. Facing the might of a rank 9 Gold Behemoth, they wanted to ignore Dis’ orders and run away, but they were unable to.
How gigantic were these twenty-meter tall Gold Behemoths? Their width exceeded 1.5 meters so their fists were huge. With Dis smashed the ground with all his strength, his entire arm pierced the ground. Unexpectedly, his crazy punches didn’t make a single sound. It was only less than a moment later that the mountain peak exploded with Dis’ location at the epicenter.
Boom——
Apart from the rare ores within Brenner Pa.s.s, the overwhelming majority of the mountain range was composed of extremely hard granite. At this very instant, this mountain peak unexpectedly dropped thirty meters in height due to the berserk pounding of a Gold Behemoth. Innumerable stone fragments shot out like artillery sh.e.l.ls. Of the eighty Berserk Behemoths, not one was able to resist the tremendously powerful aftershock and tumbled down the mountain. Laughably, their gigantic bodies had a greater destructive force than the logs that had been rolled down the slope. At the very least, the rolling trees were incomparable to a Behemoth’s substantial weight and durable body.
The dust gradually settled. Golden rays of light glittered in the center as a figure stood up. The frantic pounding had reduced the ire in Dis’ heart slightly. The red light flickering in his eyes gradually vanished.
Perkins walked up the mountain, head and face filthy with grime. Alongside him were the four Silver Behemoths. He laughed loudly and commented, “Boss, you flipped out so violently. Look, that is Konya City.” As he said this, he lifted a thick arm to point at the base of the mountain.
Dis’ golden gaze followed the gesture, and cracking sounds echoed from the diamond-like bones in his body. Pipa. He coldly said, “So, this is the city that is prepared to bear my rage. Pa.s.s on my commands: Enter Konya City and kill. Leave no one alive.”
Perkins helplessly shrugged, throwing a broad arm as thick as a city wall over Dis’ shoulders. “Boss, who do you want me to pa.s.s this order to? Now we are even lacking an army.” While he spoke, he jerked his thumb behind him.
“Eh…” Dis realized that apart from him and Perkins, there were only four Silver Behemoths under his command. Even the entire army of Berserk Behemoths had been sent rolling down the mountain.
“d.a.m.nit, the first army!” Dis roared.
The few Silver Behemoths hastily sorted out the plundering legion that had been baptized in the enemy’s fire.
