Chapter 305: The Escaped Monsters
Outside the carriage, the adventurers were already prepared for battle. The fighting skills were activated, and all the auxiliary magic was also activated. Now they could clearly hear the footsteps of the monsters with their ears.
"coming soon!"
Someone shouted loudly. As soon as the voice fell, the grass somewhere around the convoy shook, and a minotaur nearly three meters tall rushed out.
"on!"
Several adventurers around suddenly had murderous looks in their eyes, and they raised their weapons to charge forward.
"No, something seems wrong."
Before the adventurers started fighting with the minotaur, someone noticed something strange was going on.
The minotaur that rushed out actually ignored the huge crowd of people in the caravan and just ran away.
Not only that, after the Minotaur, ghouls, brown-tailed scorpions, greedy claws, stone giants, black poisonous lizards, and other monsters that made ordinary adventurers tremble in their hearts rushed over from the depths of the mountains.
Except for the ghouls and ogres which couldn't move when they saw humans, none of the other monsters attacked the caravan. Instead, they ran wildly towards the outside of the mountains, as if they were all afraid of something.
However, there were also a lot of ghouls and ogres in Mount Doe, and some monsters that had been escaping for a long time and were already hungry also attacked the caravan, so the adventurers were also busy and had already started fighting with some of the monsters.
Wayne's opponent was a ghoul. With his bronze-level strength, it should not be difficult to deal with the ghoul. He held the sword in both hands, dodged the ghoul's attack between leaps, and stabbed the sword into its heart.
Green blood dripped down the blade of the sword. After Wayne pulled out the sword, the zombie in front of him fell to the ground with a bang.
After shaking off the blood on his sword, Wayne frowned unconsciously. He was confused. How could the ghouls become so weak? Are the monsters in the Duo Mountains weaker than those in other places?
Also, why did these monsters run away? Was it related to the strong smell of blood?
Wayne easily connected the two things together, his face suddenly turned pale, and at this moment he even had the urge to run away with the monsters immediately.
"Oh my god, it can't be that Behemoth that is really chasing them."
With a slight tremor in his heart, Wayne shifted his gaze to Luo Qiu.
At this time, Luo Qiu and Shenhong were strolling leisurely beside the truck. All the monsters that attacked them were easily split in half by Luo Qiu with a dark gray sword, without exception.
The employer, Abel, was flattering him in an exaggerated manner.
This was the first time Wayne saw a gold-level adventurer take action. He had to admit that he was far beyond his capabilities. Even ten of him wouldn't be able to do it so easily.
But can this golden-level adventurer resist Behemoth?
Wayne couldn't help but feel a little scared. If a Glory-level adventurer was here, he would still have some confidence, but the Gold-level was still weaker than the Glory-level after all. Besides, Luo Qiu was alone and had no adventure team.
At this moment, Wayne didn't know if it was an illusion, but Luo Qiu seemed to glance at him inadvertently when he was peeking at him, with a strange smile on the corner of his mouth.
With a slight shock in his heart, he quickly shifted his gaze. Before Wayne could be shocked by Luo Qiu's keen perception, two more zombies rushed in front of him, forcing him to focus on the battle.
“That guy is really interesting.”
Luo Qiu shook his head and smiled when he saw Wayne fighting the ghouls in a hurry, and had no intention of going forward to help. These were just temporary exercises, and the real battle had not yet begun.
Because most of the monsters were running away, the pressure on the adventurers was not as great as imagined, but facing this mysterious situation, many people were shrouded in a shadow.
Why did the monster run away?
There must be a stronger being chasing them. The quick-witted adventurers easily thought of this, so even if they did not have Wayne's extraordinary sense of smell, they could still guess some reasons. However, they had no other choice. If they abandoned the caravan and ran away now, they might be overwhelmed by these fleeing monsters. They could only pray in their hearts that their guess was wrong.
But the reality is always not as satisfactory as expected.
The number of fleeing monsters gradually decreased, but the ground was shaking more and more violently, from far to near.
Boom!Boom!Boom!Boom!
The dull footsteps sounded like knocking on one's heart, making one feel very uncomfortable.
"It's really coming." Wayne thought bitterly. The current noise might really be the Behemoth chasing after him.
The legendary great demon beast, an existence that even glory-level adventurers fear, no matter whether humans or other races dare to provoke it, not even the adventurers in Hertzperonari dare to fight it. The commission has long been hung high on the guild's notice board but no one is interested because no one who has accepted it has returned.
Hadn't it been living peacefully in the deepest part of the Doe Mountains? How could it suddenly run out and let them run into it by chance?
Luo Qiu was a little excited. He also wanted to see what the Behemoth in this other world looked like, because Behemoth also existed in "Burning God Realm". As the final BOSS of a difficult copy, it once made countless players complain.
As for why Behemoth suddenly appeared, Luo Qiu knew something about it.
Not long ago, Luo Qiu in the carriage received a magical message from the Nether Bone Dragon Knight.
As Luo Qiu's summoned beast, the Nether Bone Dragon Knight can sense the presence of his master within a certain range.
The Nether Bone Dragon Knight told Luo Qiu that after he built a dungeon around Herzperona, he summoned some weak monsters to act as monsters of various levels, but he still needed some stronger monsters to maintain order. The Nether Bone Dragon Knight could also summon high-level demons and the like, but the high-level monsters he summoned had a time limit on their existence. They would disappear once the time limit was up, unlike those weak monsters below level 40 that could exist forever.
So the Nether Bone Dragon Knight thought of a way. He quietly left the dungeon for a while, came to the Doe Mountains, and ordered some more powerful monsters to go to the dungeon.
Behemoth, as the overlord of the mountains, is one of them.
Behemoth was sleeping soundly at that time, when suddenly the Nether Bone Dragon Knight descended from the sky and almost scared it to death. The Headless Knight came to Behemoth and beat it up without saying a word. Behemoth almost fell to death on the spot before he stopped and told it his purpose.
The dying Behemoth dared not resist and kept nodding his head to agree to the Nether Bone Dragon Knight's request.
After resting for a few days and finally being able to walk again, Behemoth did not dare to delay any longer and ran directly out from the depths of the mountains. The terrifying headless knight had already scared it.
After leaving the mountains, Behemoth became angrier and angrier at the thought that he would become someone else's watchdog and lose his freedom. Along the way, whenever he saw a monster, he would either step on it or swallow it in one gulp, causing the entire mountain to be in chaos and the monsters to be in a panic.
