At this moment, the fat man lowered his head, panting heavily.
His chest heaved violently, and his face, still bearing a dark bluish-black tinge from the struggle with us earlier, was flushed.
The fat man also stretched out a hand and pressed it against the spot where his suit had just been torn.
The light in his hand seeped completely into the swarm of insects through his fingertips.
The worms that had been wriggling and intertwining suddenly fell silent.
As if receiving some kind of command, they methodically crawled towards the wound on the fat man's body, quickly filling the area that had just been cut off.
Even more outrageous, I discovered that the area covered by the suit seemed to be expanding!
The fabric that had just reached the fat man's thighs was now rapidly extending down his calves.
The swarm of insects, like a huge torrent of water, had already wrapped around the guy's ankles.
Is this some kind of unusual pant leg design?
As I thought about it, I felt a deep sense of nausea.
Not only that, the small gap that had been split open on the fat man's shoulder was also quickly filled by the insects.
The clothes at the shoulders look longer, as if a shoulder pad was suddenly added inside.
The sleeve that the fat man had been chopped off by the lightning sword was now slowly returning to its original shape.
It's a size bigger than before, and the sheen on its surface is even more pronounced.
I knew very well that the hardness was definitely higher.
What are they trying to do?
As I pondered this in my mind, I quickly came up with the answer.
The lightning sword was shouted out at almost the same time.
"Master, he is reinforcing his own defenses. He wants to cover for the ancients and protect their resurrection!"
Lei Jijian also shouted urgently.
And I was just about to have the Thunder Strike Sword strike the swarm of insects on his body while he was repairing himself and applying energy to the ancients.
At that moment, the fat man's body suddenly grew even longer!
I saw that the parts of his body covered by his clothes all bulged up again.
If I didn't know he had a lot of worms in his body, I would have even thought that he had grown some muscle!
Moreover, he temporarily stopped applying energy to the ancients and instead focused on replenishing himself.
He seemed to have realized that we were planning to take action against him.
Not just his whole body, this guy seems to have grown a little taller.
I suddenly realized that his head, which had just barely reached the ceiling, had now crashed into the breach again with a loud bang.
The area was filled with loose stones and soil, which were constantly falling down.
Holy crap, it's like there's an earthquake in the secret room again.
Some of the debris even hit the fat man's shoulder, but this time it was probably because the fat man was channeling energy into the ancient being. The pebbles and clods of earth on his shoulder didn't fall directly down; instead, they floated on top.
Soon, the fat man was buried under a layer of soil.
He is in a very sorry state now.
The next second, the fat man tightened his body again.
Then, with a shake, all the soil fell off in an instant.
I thought to myself, this method, although it poses no threat to us, is indeed quite amazing.
And this thing seems to be growing as much as possible right now.
He banged his head against the wall again and again, causing the fat man to groan several times in pain.
He only subconsciously bent over, without stepping back.
This guy's eyes were fixed on the ancient person who was recovering, and he no longer cared about the ceiling.
He is no longer absorbing energy; rather, he is helping the ancients to restore something.
As I watched his body grow larger, my heart sank.
I watched his movements carefully.
At this moment, when he bent over, he didn't even forget to use his arm to cover the lower body of the ancient man.
Whenever we tried to move forward, he would move aside, deliberately blocking our way, as if trying to protect the ancients.
At this moment, the fat man's originally rapid breathing seemed to become very light, as if he was afraid of disturbing the ancients.
His expression seemed to have become very serious, his brows were slightly furrowed, and the rage in his eyes was no longer the same as when he attacked us.
Instead, they became even more cautious and devout, as if serving someone of higher status.
I thought to myself.
A terrifying conclusion was reached: this ancient person was his superior.
His reverent gaze wasn't because he wanted to gain anything from the bodies of the ancients.
If the ancients could really stand up again, this guy would definitely bow down and submit!
At this point, I explained my thoughts to the girl in detail. She thought about it for a moment and was quite shocked.
"Really? Just now, when that fat guy was looking at the ancient people, he even seemed to be bending over more attentively!"
At this moment, the girl's voice was very low, and only the two of us could hear it.
I knew in my heart that she was also afraid of being discovered by that fat man.
Just then, it seemed that the ancient man's legs had also recovered.
The kneecap, which had clearly been broken and chopped to pieces, was solidified by the fat man's black blood, forming a huge black lump.
After he spat on it, the black lump slowly transformed into the skin color of the ancient people.
The skin made of stone seemed smoother, and there appeared to be some faint stripes on it.
I looked at it closely and it did seem quite familiar.
I silently asked Lei Jijian in my mind if he had any recollection of him.
After pondering for a while, Lei Jijian suddenly shouted.
"Master, isn't this the one we saw before?!"
These are the patterns on that cane!
Holy crap, after hearing Lei Jijian's words, I suddenly realized what he meant.
Indeed, it is the pattern of a walking stick.
If that's the case, then everything makes sense.
Because this fat man is actually resurrecting ancient people.
It is perfectly normal for his body to develop patterns similar to those on his spine.
"They've come back to life!"
The girl had just finished saying those three words.
The next second, a pair of eyes suddenly grew from the skull resting on the neck.
I don't know if it's made of flesh or stone, but it's incredibly realistic.
And it was in that instant that the ancient man’s eyes opened!
And that gaze landed squarely on the fat man!
The problem is, this ancient person is missing half of his head.
After I saw him open his eyes, he also began to move slightly.
