Chapter 1770 - Black-Silver Rock Demon (2/2)
The buildings had blocked off most of the view as she looked ahead, but she could still see strange mud creatures wriggling in different locations. Several Rock Monsters were destroying everything about them recklessly. It felt like a bunch of bandits had found their way into a rich mansion. They were overturning trunks and boxes, searching for the Barrier Core.
It was dangerous for demon creatures to invade a city. Luckily, the city was more like a battle fortress that only allowed Mages to enter it. Otherwise, there would be a lot more innocent lives lost.
Mo Fan was panting heavily. A lot of strange things were hanging off of him. He already lost count of the things he bumped into along the way!
“Get rid of the Seal, and I’ll eliminate these creatures for you,” Mo Fan gasped.
“Getting rid of the Seal is no different from giving the Barrier Core to these creatures. No non-Earth Element energy is allowed, especially so close to the Barrier Core!” Wen Xia replied instantly.
“Then what are you going to do? Do you think you can take them all out with your Earth Element? There are large numbers of Mud Morphing Monsters hunting their prey in the city now! The number of the Rock Monsters are only going to increase, and these creatures don’t just stop there, they can also…” Mo Fan suddenly paused in the middle of his sentence.
Wen Xia was confused. She asked, “What were you trying to say?”
Mo Fan did not answer her. He pointed ahead with a stern face.
Since it was dark, Wen Xia and Mo Fan subconsciously assumed the two black shadows before them were some tall commercial buildings when they looked down from a great height. To their surprise, the buildings suddenly started moving by raising their thick and strong legs. Their steps left huge cracks on the ground, and even knocked the houses nearby to the ground!
Wen Xia was dazed for a moment.
A Rock Monster over fifty meters tall?
The tallest Rock Monster they had encountered so far was only four meters, which was about the height of a single-story building. How did such enormous creatures show up in the well-protected city center? How did they make their way past the rampart? How could the soldiers and Brown Earth Mages possibly let them pass?
“You saw it, they can evolve continuously. Not only can the Mud Morphing Monsters transform into Rock Monsters after pouncing on humans, these Rock Monsters are attacking Mages to devour them, too. Every Mage they devour will increase their size and strength… damn it, how many Mages did those two Black-Silver Rock Demons even devour to reach their current size? The people inside them are probably enough to stack up into a human pyramid!” Mo Fan said.
These dangerous and destructive creatures were born in such a short time. Heaven knew what they would do if they were left alone!
“They are turning the energy of the Mages into their own. The Research Union has done some research on them, but we didn’t discover the Mud Morphing Monsters until it was too late,” Wen Xia admitted.
“I thought so too. The people we rescued were very weak, as if all their energy was drawn away,” Mo Fan said.
“Come with me, we can’t let those two monsters reach the Barrier Core,” Wen Xia seemed to know of a hidden passage, and Mo Fan off to a remote area.
“Hey, don’t you dare drag me into a mess! I’m just being kind-hearted trying to remind you of the threat so the military won’t be taken by surprise, so hurry up and get rid of the Seal. I promise you that I won’t use my other Elements before the Barrier Core is done setting up. Besides, if those things do find the Barrier Core, who knows if they can evolve any further with the energy of the Barrier Core. It won’t be just the Rock Monsters we have to worry about, but a Rock Demon Emperor. I still need my other Elements to flee for my life… ah, to protect the vulnerable residents of the city!” Mo Fan corrected himself.
