Chapter 247 Battle
And just like before, it came very suddenly, without any warning, and everything went completely black in an instant.
This sudden turn of events startled the sea creatures inside the protective shield.
In the past, when they went out to sea, all they saw was darkness. But today, looking out from inside the protective shield, they had a different feeling. Just as they were marveling at the magic of the shield, they heard a roar.
Ellie and Ao Yu, who were going out to sea at night for the first time, were very excited. Could this be the black mist that the adults were talking about?
It looks so amazing! And that roar was kind of scary.
While everyone was stunned, a huge claw came flying at them. Just like the one that Gu Xinyan and the others had seen before, this claw only showed golden patterns and nothing else.
With a loud 'bang!', the giant claw slammed down on the protective shield.
However, it didn't shatter, but the sound it made was quite loud, making everyone inside the protective shield feel a buzzing in their ears.
"Boss Gu, your protective shield is truly amazing! It's actually unbreakable!" the merman clan chief exclaimed in amazement.
"Yes, this is the first time I've seen this giant beast up close. Before, I was always sent flying before I could even see it! Tonight I'll have a good look at it."
One of the sea serpents exclaimed, rubbing his hands together in anticipation, eager to rush out and have a good fight.
Seeing that the protective shield remained intact, the behemoth seemed even angrier, launching even more powerful attacks. Unfortunately, the shield remained completely still, showing no reaction whatsoever.
"Let's go and confront this behemoth."
After the Mermaid King shouted, he swung his weapon, and instantly a wave of water shot towards the giant beast in the darkness.
However, this attack seemed to vanish as soon as it entered the black mist, without causing the slightest disturbance.
Seeing this, the sea creatures nearby also brandished their weapons, but the skills they summoned were the same as the Mermaid King's attacks before.
Upon entering the black mist, it was as if swallowed up by some invisible force, without causing any ripples.
"This black mist is indeed as strange as ever. It seems I have no choice but to confront it myself!"
After speaking with a frown, the Dragon King took to the air and, the instant he transformed into his true form, vanished into the black mist.
Seeing this, the other sea creatures inside the protective shield also rushed in. Gu Xinyan and the others, who were a step slower, could only hear the continuous 'bang bang bang!' sounds coming from inside.
The sound was so loud that you could tell there was a fierce fight going on inside; the roars that came from time to time made the shop tremble.
After exchanging glances, the group picked up their weapons and rushed in as well.
For a moment, only Ao Yu and Ellie remained inside the protective shield, both of them filled with excitement.
I really wanted to rush in, but I knew my own limitations, so in the end I could only silently suppress my restless heart.
Meanwhile, Gu Xinyan and her companions, who rushed into the black fog, could see nothing and had no light in front of them, so they could only follow the direction from which the sound came.
The deeper you go into the black fog, the louder the sound becomes, and you can vaguely see flashes of light.
When the group arrived at the battlefield, they were surprised to find that while they could not see anything outside, the small area where the giant beast was located was as bright as day.
The beast was very tall and looked very strange. Its body was as big as a small mountain and its whole body was covered with black scales.
However, the golden patterns inside his body were all over his body, crisscrossing and looking extremely eerie.
It's like a mobile power station; its two huge eyes are empty, black holes with no pupils, yet they can accurately locate those who attack it.
However, its claws were very sharp. Gu Xinyan and the others were already very familiar with these giant claws, having seen them several times before.
With each swing of the giant claw, immense power was unleashed, as if it could tear everything apart.
Each attack was accompanied by a roar, a sound that made the surrounding air tremble.
Besides the giant claw, what's even stranger is that wisps of black mist are swirling around the beast's body.
Although it was as bright as day around it, the constantly emerging black mist made everyone realize that the arrival of the black mist was indeed brought by this giant beast!
However, in the first few years, there was only black mist and no giant beasts. This mystery puzzled the sea creatures, but now was not the time to think about it.
Although the sea creatures were numerous, they were still somewhat powerless in the face of the mountain-sized behemoth, as most of their attacks failed to cause any damage.
The giant beast's strikes would cause severe damage, putting them in a very passive position.
Even the enormous bodies of dragons appear very small in front of this behemoth.
Not to mention the other sea creatures, the disparity in size made every battle a struggle for them.
Their long-range attacks were also ineffective; they were swallowed up without a trace before they could even get close to the behemoth, leaving them with no choice but to engage in melee combat.
Unfortunately, despite their best efforts, the group still couldn't budge the giant beast. Seeing this, Gu Xinyan and the others didn't delay any longer and rushed forward.
He channeled his spiritual energy and slashed at the giant beast. The spiritual energy was like a sharp sword light, slashing straight at the giant beast's mountain-like body.
However, just like the Mermaid King, it did not cause him any harm.
This behemoth is indeed extraordinary. Meanwhile, Milair, standing to the side, had already taken out the energy laser gun from his spatial storage and unleashed a barrage of fire at the behemoth.
A blinding white light appeared, and this time it struck the giant beast squarely, but only left shallow wounds.
However, this thoroughly enraged the giant beast. It roared, and the black mist that had been swirling around its body twisted and contorted in an instant.
Then it transformed into a long black whip, fiercely striking towards them.
Seeing this, everyone hurriedly dodged to the side, and the air was torn apart with a sharp whistling sound wherever the black whip passed.
Fortunately, everyone dodged quickly, otherwise, they might have been torn to shreds by that whip.
