Chapter 392: Aldridge the Devourer of Gods
Aldridge the God Devourer?
Shouldn't his title be the Deep Saint?
Luluwo's doubts disappeared in an instant, because Gwyndolin, who was eaten away until only his upper body was left, perfectly demonstrated what it meant to "devour a god."
It really is the literal meaning of swallowing gods!
According to the existing information, Aldridge, who is a Saint of the Deep, is actually a cannibal. It is because of his constant eating that his body has swelled into this shape and his soul has grown to the point where he is qualified to pass on the fire.
When obtaining intelligence, people were still thinking, if you can become the King of Fire by eating people continuously, then why not create a few more beings like Aldridge to spread the fire.
Moreover, as the second salary king that people have met besides the Faran Undead Team, I always feel that Aldridge's value is not as good as the former. He himself has not done anything heroic or praiseworthy. The only highlight is passing on the fire and saving the world.
However, there is also information suggesting that even the only highlight of passing on the fire may not be his voluntary act.
If someone said that the other party voluntarily ate humans and became as dirty as mud, Luluwo would find it hard to believe it.
But now she didn't have time to verify the plot. She just stared at Gwyndolin's body that was thrown into the air by the dead flesh, her pupils trembling wildly.
"If this situation were to be made public, a large number of people would become emotionally agitated."
She subconsciously wanted to take out the photo stone to take a picture, but then she felt that it was a bit disrespectful to take a picture of the miserable appearance of a god. However, the photo stone sewn on her clothes automatically recorded everything.
Before today, Luluwo could never have imagined that a god like Gwyndolin would end up like this.
People have speculated about the fate of the Shadow Sun, thinking that she might devote herself to passing on the fire, or that she might disappear over a long period of time, or that she might have been dormant until now and is slowly awakening, or that she might have been killed by an undead and her soul taken away.
So what does it mean to be eaten by Eldridge?
And there is still half left to eat!
Oh my god, he and Pope Sullivan teamed up to defeat even the gods, are they that strong?
At this moment, Luluwo even thought about running away. She was not the Sword of Darkmoon, nor was she as sentimental as those people who were easily immersed in dungeon stories. She did not think about revenge for Gwyndolin. When she encountered a situation where she had absolutely no chance of winning, the first thing she thought of was to run away.
The Pope Sullivan's phantom was so strong, and now there's Aldridge who can even defeat gods.
No, the Deep Saint here is definitely not him. His strength should be weaker than his real self, right?
Long ago, long before the Undead Squad of Lord of Fire Farran appeared, people speculated that these named bosses that appeared in the Thane Dungeon might not be the real ones, because after they defeated the bosses, an image of an ash or undead fighting with the "real thing" and winning would appear.
So people now think that leaders such as Fran's Undead Corps and Overlord Wolnir may be similar to afterimages, shadows left behind by powerful people in the past.
Thinking this way, she wanted to know what the real Gwyndolin and Aldridge had done. The Ash who defeated the Overlord came to save them.
Let's talk about the current battle. The brave Elsa beside him seems to have exploded and stimulated a mysterious power. Maybe, just maybe, he can win?
At this moment, Luluwo, who had been staring at the remains of Gwyndolin, suddenly discovered something.
The other party's dry lips moved, as if he was whispering something.
What does "leave" mean?
The image suddenly ended at this moment, and a surging heat wave erupted around her. Luluwo then realized that there was a humanoid fire element standing next to her. She quickly jumped to the side, thinking about how to comfort the other person. Elsa's current appearance was obviously abnormal.
The easiest way to appease him would probably be to kill Aldridge, but
Looking towards the center of the hall, the endless pile of rotten flesh formed a hill-like existence. Those gathered together formed a being named Aldrich, and the remains of Gwyndolin were placed on the highest point of the mountain, overlooking everything in mid-air.
Even her body was controlled by the rotten flesh. She slowly pulled the Dark Moon Longbow, and dark magic arrows gathered on it.
"boom!"
A heat wave erupted, Elsa jumped high, and the giant sword smashed down heavily on the body at the top!
“Go to hell!”
“Buzz——”
An irritating buzzing sound was heard, and her attack failed to hit the enemy's body. A translucent dark protective shield separated her from Aldridge.
The size of the giant sword suddenly increased dramatically. It was originally like a door panel, but at least it could still be used by humans. But now the blade has grown to ten meters, a full ten meters long, and the giant sword is surrounded by flames!
The dark shield kept flickering, and cracks seemed to appear on the surface but were quickly repaired. The charging of the Darkmoon Longbow was interrupted. The controlled Gwyndolin, no, should be called Aldrich directly, he pulled out a long magic staff from the rotten flesh, and released attack magic at Elsa at close range.
An explosion sounded, and as Elsa landed on the ground, the enemy pulled the Darkmoon Longbow again to charge.
"Gus, calm down for a moment..."
Before Luluwo could finish her words, she saw her opponent was about to jump up and attack again, and he couldn't hear anything she said.
The power Elsa exuded also made her feel intimidated. This power felt more than ten times her usual strength!
I've long known that the way a hero's strength grows is different from that of a normal person, but isn't it growing too fast? Luluwo huddled in the corner, shivering, because the heat wave covering the entire field prevented her from going out to assist the opponent.
The ten-meter-long giant sword slashed heavily on the protective shield. The next moment, she appeared on the other side in an instant, dodging the attack magic while slashing twice more. The protective shield flashed even faster.
Aldridge turned the magic wand in his hand, and a large number of tracking attack magic like light spots appeared, chasing Elsa's flickering figure.
Taking advantage of this time, the rotten flesh in the hall surged, and the rotten flesh entangled on the ceiling fell like raindrops, mixed with undigested bones and armor, among which there were figures that the adventurers were quite familiar with.
These bones and armors were wrapped in rotten flesh and quickly formed black human figures of various shapes.
Luluwo looked carefully and saw many familiar figures inside.
Wandering soldiers, maggot-infested zombies, silver knights, church knights, crow men, and many other monsters that have never been seen before. It's really a hodgepodge.
These were the lives that Aldridge had devoured, and now they were pulled out again to become his army and fight alongside him!
This scene was like a group of demons dancing wildly, and hell became a real scene at this moment.
Elsa's attention was originally focused on Aldridge, but when she saw Luluwo surrounded by a large number of monsters, the flames covering her face paused, and she turned and rushed over to fight with this group of monsters transformed from rotten flesh.
When she changed her target, the dark shield was repaired in the blink of an eye, and when she killed a certain number of monsters, the shield flashed once and its thickness seemed to weaken.
Get it, this is one of those classic boss designs - kill the adds to chip away at the boss' shield until it breaks.
The giant sword was constantly swung, the blade slowly growing, and as more enemies were killed, the flames burned hotter.
The strength of the monsters summoned by Aldridge even increased. First, there were zombies that even farmers could resist, then there were well-equipped wandering soldiers, and then there were the Lothric Knights. In the end, what remained on the battlefield was a team of fully armed silver knights!
The arrow shot from the dragon hunting bow pierced through... no, it blew up Elsa's shoulder. There was still a thread of flesh left connecting her left arm to her body. Luluwo's eyelids jumped, and she quickly sprinkled the healing potion over, but the potion was evaporated by the flames in mid-air.
A magical thing happened, the flames automatically filled in Elsa's missing flesh, not restoring her injuries but allowing her to continue fighting unhindered!
"Is it so evil?"
This scene was quite terrifying in Luluwo's eyes. She could only avoid the heat waves and continuously throw out pyroxene magic gravel to attack the enemy, helping Elsa share some of the responsibility.
【Escape quickly.】
A hoarse and weak voice emerged from my mind. It was Gwyndolin's voice.
Luluwo thought she had heard it wrong, but when she looked up, she found that the remains of Gwyndolin's head was indeed facing her, with his lips moving.
However, the opponent's arms were controlled by the rotten flesh, and the power condensed on the Dark Moon Longbow became more and more powerful, as if it would shoot out a decisive move comparable to the Full Moon Queen's Full Moon at any time.
This is not good! This is not good!
You're concerned about us even though you can't protect yourself, Luluwo was so moved that she took a deep breath. She had to quickly break the shield to stop the Darkmoon Longbow from firing.
In order to resist the heat wave, she endured the possibility of being frozen and poured a bottle of freezing potion all over her body. Her whole body was immediately covered with frost. Taking advantage of this opportunity, she rushed over and frantically attacked the dark shield. Fortunately, the monster's attention was all on Elsa.
The monster made of rotten flesh was more fragile than the original one, and the rotten flesh seemed to be more afraid of the power of the flames on the giant sword. In this short moment, the entire team of silver knights was almost wiped out by Elsa who exchanged injuries for injuries without any defense. But at this moment -
“Boom!”
With a loud bang, the whole hall trembled, and lightning and thunder danced like mad snakes and scattered everywhere. Luluwo was caught off guard and was electrocuted until her whole body became numb. Only her eyeballs moved to look at what released the lightning.
The guy who released the lightning was a very, very familiar enemy that she had not been able to defeat until now:
"The Executioner" Smo!
At this moment, Ornstein's comrade was also covered in rotten flesh, with only part of his body still covered with the golden armor, making it barely possible to recognize his identity!
How come you were eaten too? Don't tell me Ornstein is also in Aldridge's stomach! Luluwo's eyes couldn't get any bigger.
Carrion Smoo simply swung his sledgehammer and smashed it towards Elsa, who immediately raised her giant sword to block it.
This powerful blow that should have smashed her into a pulp was steadily caught by her. The floor under her feet shattered completely, and her whole body was smashed several centimeters into the ground!
“Get lost!”
With a roar, Elsa tried to push the Rotten Smoo back. At this moment, two huge arrows shot into her body. The Silver Knight's long sword wrapped in lightning pierced through her lower abdomen and went all the way up to open her back!
The hall was filled with dark clouds. This was the deep power summoned by Aldridge's power. Endless arrows slowly emerged from it, and were about to attack the entire venue in the next moment!
Gwyndolin's remaining body showed a slight struggle, as if he didn't want to shoot any arrows.
At this critical moment, there was a sound of something suddenly breaking.
It was a dark shield, and Luluwo successfully broke it!
The next second, both Smoo and the Silver Knight disappeared instantly, the charging of the Darkmoon Longbow was interrupted for a moment, and even Aldridge fell into a state of stiffness.
Elsa, with flames burning all over her body, appeared in front of him in the blink of an eye, sweeping across with her giant sword!
The body made of rotten flesh does not have much defensive ability, but it has excellent resistance to slashing. Elsa's giant sword slashing should not cause much effective damage.
But the flame attached to the blade made up for this. The rotten flesh born in the dark was afraid of the light of the flame. The moment it touched the flame, it melted and dissipated like mud. In the blink of an eye, Aldridge's height shrank!
This attack was accompanied by the explosion of flames and the wailing of rotten flesh, the visual effect was maximized!
"Go ahead, Elsa!"
In her excitement, Luluwo accidentally called out the other person's real name!
Elsa raised the giant sword high, and the blazing flames wrapped around the blade soared into the sky, ten meters, twenty meters, and finally reached a height of forty meters, which could be said to be a flaming blade that penetrated the hall!
Aldridge did not seem panicked, or rather, a pile of rotten meat could not express emotions. The remains of Gwyndolin were controlled to pick up the long-handled weapon. The light of the dark moon gathered on the blade, and the cold and dangerous aura was no less than Elsa's.
Luluwo took a step back to avoid the collision of the two people's strongest attacks, and her palms were sweating for her companions.
"Huh?"
But at this moment, she suddenly found that there were many gaps on Elsa's body, and blood was flowing out of them.
When did she get injured? Wait, this is the wound left when fighting a group of monsters. It has been blocked by the burning flames, so it cannot be seen.
But why did the wound appear now and where did the fire go?
Luluwo couldn't help but have a bad thought in her mind. She didn't understand the source of Elsa's power at all. What if there was a time limit and now the time has come?
The sound of the burning flames suddenly weakened, and the heat wave seemed to be disappearing. When the attacks from both sides intersected—
The fire is out.
