squeak!
The low door was pushed open, and a black object squirmed and slowly crawled out of the door.
Its strangely upright body is over three meters tall.
The monster was completely black, with raised proliferative tissue all over, and veins like blood vessels wrapped around its surface, with yellow liquid flowing inside.
There are three thick tentacles above the monster, as thick as a normal person's thigh, arranged in an inverted triangle shape.
The two tentacles above hung down to the left and right. One tentacle had gills and insect-like ferocious mouthparts at the front end. The other tentacle was slightly higher, with tiny tentacle hairs growing all over the front end. Two eyes similar to those of a snail wriggled out, and the black and white human eyeballs stared at the visitor.
The tentacle in the lower middle part looks like a morning glory. When it opens, four slightly thinner tentacles extend from it.
The monster's lower body is similar to the cuticle armor of an insect, and also looks like a black snail shell covered with yellow blood vessels. Judging from its shape, it can protect its soft body.
The wriggling tentacles left trails of mucus and moved forward with the snail shell in their arms. They were moving very fast, faster than a normal human walk, and they walked towards Wayne, waving their tentacles.
Oh my god, this is too weird!
No wonder Willy's face turned pale with fright. Anyone would be shocked if they saw this thing unexpectedly.
Wayne narrowed his eyes slightly, a red light bloomed in his eyes, and the fire element turned into two beams of light and suddenly shot out.
Four slightly thinner tentacles spread out, forming a protective shield like a mental shield, blocking the heat vision and then collapsing.
"Stranger, I have no ill intentions, don't rush to act."
The monster stared with creepy eyes, and the fur of the tentacles below opened up, revealing a human mouth with a long tongue hanging out. Saliva and mucus were dripping, and it spoke indistinctly.
It's actually Windsor!
Wayne was greatly surprised. Nowadays, even monsters have to be proficient in foreign languages. It seems that involution is indeed everywhere.
"Strangers, this is not the place for you. The great Togugye is about to awaken. Go back now while there is still time!"
The monster spoke incomprehensible words, and its two eyeballs looked at Wayne and Willy respectively, with its pupils dilated to different degrees, with a weird look in its eyes.
"Who is Togugeye, and what...are you?" Wayne asked.
"This is not something you should know. Put away your curiosity. The more you know, the deeper you will fall." The monster licked its long tongue and expressed its desire to eat Wayne while speaking.
Wayne's mouth curled up: "You want to eat it? Come over here with a sliding tackle, I'll satisfy you."
Although he did not find the power of the Sun Knight directly, he found an NPC who talked a lot of nonsense and expressed a desire to attack, which made Wayne very satisfied.
Everyone saw it. It was the despicable local who started the fight first, and he fought back because he could no longer bear it.
“Roar, roar, roar—”
The monster hesitated for a moment, as if considering the success rate of hunting, but finally couldn't resist the desire to eat and pounced on it, waving its tentacles.
Crackling! Crashing!
Bang!
The camera turned and the black snail shell was spinning in place, like an overturned turtle or a wobbly tumbler. Wayne turned it upside down and all three tentacles retracted into the shell.
At the bottom, the wriggling tentacles were desperately contracting, but they were only concerned about the head and not the butt. The tentacles retracted into the shell, and three thick tentacles were squeezed out. The tentacles retracted, and the tentacles popped out again.
Wayne had sharp eyes and saw an × among the pile of tentacles.
“Hehehehe——”
Wayne smiled brightly and waved to Willy behind him. The latter understood immediately and drew out her knight's sword and held it in the air.
Then it stopped moving.
From another angle, Valkyrie held Willy's arm tightly and yelled angrily, saying that one should not be too like Wayne and should not learn anything from Wayne.
Willy gave up with regret, took back the knight's sword and put it behind her back, and gave Wayne a look that said you understand.
Knight teacher is too rigid! x2
The two reached a consensus at this moment. Wayne had no choice but to spread out his five fingers, and the four elements of earth, fire, water and wind gathered together and condensed into four elemental swords with distinct colors.
"Teacher, I understand what you mean. There should be no room for torture. We should never show mercy to the weak just because of chivalry." Wayne threw the blame on Valkyrie, picked up an earth elemental sword, and stabbed it straight down at the x position.
"You're still pretty stubborn. I want to see if you can tell me or not!"
Phew!
A dull scream sounded, and soon, roars followed one after another, responding from all directions. One low door after another was pushed open, and monsters of almost identical appearance walked out.
The locals gathered in gangs, drooling.
Wayne's eyes lit up and he smiled heartily. Before the encirclement was formed, he took the initiative to walk towards them.
Crackling! Crashing!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
As the camera turns, hundreds of snail shells turn upside down, bravely showing their ×.
Wayne rubbed his hands together, straightened his face, raised his five fingers and shouted, "Sword!"
This time, all that was condensed was the greatsword of fire element.
"Wayne is so great!" Willy clapped her hands.
Undoubtedly, she is the darkest among the three and is the typical one who is eager to create chaos in the world.
“Stranger, please don’t torture them. They were originally humans who strayed into this place like you. They believed in the great Togugye and gradually became what they are now.”
The first monster propped up its tentacles and turned over, pulling out the earth elemental sword and throwing it aside. It stuck its eyeballs out and said helplessly, "Besides, they are already crazy, their minds are confused and they have no memories. You can't get anything out of them."
"I understand. If I can't torture them, I'll torture you!" Wayne, holding the fire elemental greatsword in his hand, stepped forward to launch a critical strike.
Valkyrie could no longer tolerate this and sent a message to Wayne asking him to restrain himself. Even though these were monsters and even though they were in urgent need of intelligence, as knights they could not bully the weak.
That's not right. They are so numerous and powerful. It should be that the children from South Village are bullying me because I am old and weak, so they take turns playing with me.
Wayne complained in his heart that Valkyrie was too compassionate and didn't even look at the situation clearly. If he wasn't so capable, he would have become the opponent's meal today.
The compatibility is not high and needs to be dealt with urgently!
Since the teacher had spoken, he had to give him face. Wayne dispersed a large amount of fire elements, leaving only a handful in his hand, pointed at the monster and said, "What is your name, what are you, who is Togugeye?"
"My name is Knight, or should be this name. I broke into this place two years ago and was taken in by everyone. Because the great Togugye is everywhere, I became what I am now..."
Knight explained the whole story with a wry smile. All intruders would become like them. Since he had only been here for a short time, he could still maintain his sanity, but the hunger would drive him crazy from time to time. One day, he would lose his sanity and become a complete monster.
"You're not hungry now?"
“Death is worse than hunger.”
"You are quite direct."
Wayne believed it for the time being, and squinted his eyes and said, "After all this talk, what exactly is Togugeye?"
"It's God's messenger!" Knight said worshipfully.
"What God?"
“…”
Knight thought for a moment, then stretched out his tentacles helplessly: "We are slaves active on the edge, the lowest beings, and we are not qualified to recognize the great Togugeye."
Wayne nodded and started a voice discussion within the team.
Willy is a poor student and relies on Veronica to graduate. She has a limited vision. Valkyrie has severe amnesia and has no say. Wayne made guesses throughout the whole process and the two of them nodded.
Judging from Knight's painting style, Togugeye has nothing to do with the five goddesses, hell, and heaven. He does not belong to the mainstream belief of the Chosen Continent of God, but more like an evil god from the void.
For example, the Lord of the Void who distributes eggs.
Considering that there is some connection between this place and the seal of the Frozen Continent, Togugeye's strength is definitely stronger than the Lord of the Void. When the two monsters meet, the Lord of the Void will be killed instantly.
"besides……"
Wayne said in a heavy tone: "Based on my understanding of void pollution, madness is inevitable. If Knight is not lying, he, an ordinary person, not only retained his sanity for two years, but also gained super powers. The god that Togugeye believes in must be very powerful."
Considering the worst, Togugeye is a follower of the ancient gods and his faith is in the ancient gods.
Further speculation, the frozen continent sealed an ancient god...
's family!
It's fine to seal the ancient god, let alone the three god-chosen knights, with the five goddesses all here, there's a good chance they'll use their tentacles to entangle her and let her live.
"Of course, the above are all my speculations. Togugeye may also be just a void wanderer who has regained his sanity. He has seen a wider universe, so he believes in the void." Wayne shrugged and said optimistically.
"No matter what lies ahead, we must regain the power of the Sun Knight." Valkyrie said firmly.
Wayne also nodded. The mystery was so terrifying after only revealing the tip of the iceberg, which proved that the seal of the frozen continent was extremely dangerous. He would do his best to help regain all the power of the Sun Knight.
Austin is right, order is the most important thing. The world is already in chaos and it can’t get any more chaotic!
The three of them discussed for a moment, and Wayne looked at Knight: "You said you were a slave on the periphery. Are there any monsters like you in there?"
"There are a large number of Togugeye people living in the Golden City. We are all waiting for the awakening of the great master, who will lead us away from here and go to the God-chosen Continent with richer resources." Knight said longingly.
I'm afraid that won't work, you guys are too weird!
"How many people are there?"
"I'm not sure. The Golden City is very big. There should be about 30,000 or 40,000 of them."
"What about strength?"
"There are many beings more powerful than me. The chief priest holds the power of sunlight. He is the god of the Golden City, and everyone obeys his orders."
The power of sunshine!
Wayne noticed the golden ponytails swaying back and forth, raised his hand and held them in his hands, and said in the team voice: "Don't worry, this person may not be your father-in-law. I have to say something unpleasant, you'd better not hold your hopes too high, otherwise you will be disappointed."
Willy's expectations were too high, so Wayne suppressed them himself.
The power of a knight can only be mastered by the knight himself and those allowed by the knight, with the exception of cheating. If the chief priest really possesses the power of the Sun Knight, it is very likely that he is Willy's father.
However, he was influenced by Togugye and lost himself.
Wayne took a deep breath. This was good news. At least Willy's father was still alive.
"Having said so much, I don't recommend you to go to the Golden City. It's too dangerous. Go back. You don't know how much I envy you." Knight murmured, looking at Wayne and Willy, remembering his own human form.
"You can leave, the exit is right there."
"And then, where should I go?"
Knight shook his head. With this look, he would look like a monster wherever he went. He just scared Willy. Rather than leaving nightmares for his relatives, it would be better to keep quiet and let time dilute the pain in their hearts.
Wayne raised his eyebrows, and felt a little favorable towards this monster. He circled around him and said, "I know a surgery that can restore the monster of the Fallen Void to its original form. Take us to the Golden City, and I will give you a chance to start a new life."
Knight's pupils contracted: "What kind of surgery is so powerful? Is it magic?"
"You can think of it that way. To be honest, we are actually magicians who protect the world's justice!"
“…”
Knight didn't say anything. It was hard to connect the stab he had just received with the justice of protecting the world.
Wayne didn't say anything. You have to be cunning in your actions, but be upright in your decisions. Extraordinary times call for extraordinary means. This is what justice looks like.
"I can lead you to the Golden City, but you look like you will be discovered once you enter the city. There is no point in doing so."
"Just put on some makeup."
"???"
Knight watched in confusion as Wayne borrowed different organs from his companions and piled them into a wriggling mass of black flesh.
What is this for?
Wayne dived into the mass of flesh, and the black flesh seemed to come alive, changing and wriggling a little bit. Five minutes later, it turned into a monster almost the same size as Knight.
It is thin at the top and wide at the bottom, with three tentacles extending out, dancing and swaying randomly in the air, vividly imitating the monster's words and deeds.
As Knight watched in shock, the black crack opened, revealing the pale flesh inside. Two tentacles wrapped around Willy and dragged her in amid the girl's screams.
“You, you, you…”
"How is it? Is it exactly the same as you?"
Wayne rolled his eyeballs and controlled the monster's body from the inside. Inside, he hugged the armored Willy from behind, achieving the achievement of three people sticking together.
Everything went dark before Valkyrie and Vili's eyes, and soon the pale flesh in front of them became transparent, and their 365-degree vision was as clear as a one-way glass.
"Wayne is awesome!"
"This is just the beginning. Once this mission is over, I'll show you something even better."
"Have Veronica and Senior seen it?"
"I've seen it many times, and they all say it's good."
"Then I want to see it too."
The two communicated without any concealment, one was willing to fight and the other was willing to be beaten. Hearing Valkyrie's silence, Knight was simply speechless. Forgive his curiosity, but from just a few words, he heard a complicated love relationship.
Is he getting old, or are young people nowadays too open-minded?
The two monsters moved forward with their tentacles crawling, with Knight leading the way to the golden city in front of the Black Mountains.
After he left, the monsters stood up and attacked their companions one by one, losing their minds. After dividing up the weakest companion, they dispersed after filling their stomachs.
…
There was no grass on the desolate mountain road. Away from the tunnel road, the fog gradually thinned until it disappeared. There were no trees or vegetation, only rolling black mountains.
These short hillsides are like tentacles extending from the black mountains in the distance, spreading out in all directions. They are made up of fist-sized gravel. When the cold wind whistles past, the short hills sway, and their appearance constantly changes.
The closer we got to the Black Mountains, the lower the temperature became, and it soon dropped below zero.
Knight stretched out two tentacles and lifted the snail shell like a skirt. The short tentacles turned into long legs in an instant, and he walked briskly at a staggering speed of 60 kilometers per hour.
Wayne followed suit and ran at full speed holding the snail shell. He was very experienced in playing with tentacles and mastered the skills after a little familiarity. Good money drives out bad money, and he acted like a monster even more like a monster than Knight.
The Golden City was more than 300 kilometers away from the highway. Knight's racial values were amazing, especially his endurance. He did not let the tentacles down and maintained the top speed throughout the entire journey without stopping to catch his breath. It took him six hours to reach his destination.
Wayne thought the Golden City was full of golden light, but instead he saw darkness before his eyes. From a distance he saw a black bird's nest, like a tumor parasitic on the foot of the Black Mountains.
The Black Bird's Nest is home to more than 30,000 monsters, but Wayne is skilled and brave, so he is not at all panicked.
The watch has completely stopped moving. The magnetic field of the Black Mountains is amazing, and it causes lightning to fall from the sky from time to time. Wayne also notices faint whispers around him, which tell of the chaos that makes his scalp tingle.
With him holding out outside, Valkyrie and Vely couldn't hear the whispers. The key was Vely. Valkyrie's mind had been locked by the ancient gods, which was a curse as well as a blessing. Her mind was extremely strong and wouldn't be polluted by the outside world.
Speaking of the Black Bird's Nest, the golden city that Knight mentioned is completely black, and the outer structure of the wall is hardened and as solid as a rock.
The interior is interconnected, with wide roads that are sticky and slippery. The fleshy walls are covered with distorted faces, with humans, animals, and insects. Their mouths, noses, ears, and eyes breathe regularly, and a disgusting stench wafts through the air.
These foul-smelling gases gathered at the top of the passage and turned into water droplets, ensuring a humid environment suitable for the monsters to live.
Wayne was lucky enough to see the scenes of several monsters returning home. They used their tentacles to pry open the big black mouths on the wall and squeezed their entire bodies in.
Too weird! x3
Willy's stomach was churning. She turned her head with a dark face and looked at Wayne with a look of grievance.
"Wayne, if I vomit, you can't look down on me."
"If you throw up in the car, I'll throw you out!"
Wayne ruthlessly rejected it, and using Valkyrie as an example, he told Willy to learn from her knight teacher, so that she would never vomit without dry eyes.
Willy was helpless and afraid that Wayne would dislike her, so she could only suppress her nausea.
On the other side, Axue, who was released by Wayne, looked down from the sky, taking the entire Golden City in her sight, and passed it to Wayne through the magic of the carrier bird.
It is indeed a bird's nest. The Golden City has towering walls on all four sides and a low-lying middle with a skylight in the middle, giving it the overall appearance of a spherical shape.
In the center of the city, there is a black flat land, with a strange-shaped sculpture and a palace-like building standing on it.
According to Knight, the leader who controls the sunlight lives there. As a low-level slave, he is not qualified to enter there, and this is the limit of what he can set foot in right now.
"You did a great job, just leave it to me from now on."
Wayne said goodbye to Knight and asked him to go back to the highway and wait. The man wandered around in the black passage like a sneaker and soon attracted the attention of several monsters.
The face is unfamiliar, I have never seen it before.
“Guji guji…”
They are of different races, and God knows how they look at faces. Wayne didn't even understand what they were saying. He waved his tentacles to indicate that he wanted to go to the corner to have a private chat.
Crackling! Crashing!
When Wayne came out from the corner, he had evolved into an upper-class monster in the Bird's Nest, and walked slowly towards the palace gate.
At the same time, Axue in the sky was shivering in the cold wind. It flapped its wings as hard as it could to rise higher, and finally saw what was behind the black mountains.
It was pitch black, and the restless vortex of black fog looked like a huge mouth of the abyss, with huge tentacles extending from it.
Creep!
Whisper!
“Gah…”
