Chapter 1328: Chapter 373: Slaying the Gods? {Part 2}
"Seriously? Rommel could die from frustration?" Liu Shock was astoundingly surprised.
"Overconfidence isn’t always a good thing, thinking you know it all at the start, as if everything’s in your control. If you suddenly suffer a huge loss, a big blow, indeed Rommel might not be able to take it!" Andulan elder spread his hands, "Stop digressing, keep talking about the goddess!"
"I asked her what she wanted, and she said she wanted me dead," Liu Shock continued. "I also asked her, weren’t you supposed to have a human face with a lion’s body? How come you’ve turned into this look? She said that beneath this Magnetic Mountain, slumbered an Ancient Magical Beast. She had descended into the body of this Magical Beast, especially to find me! She said she could sense my presence! I thought, this human-faced Giant ant must’ve eavesdropped on my conversation with Yitiao, so I definitely didn’t believe it was a goddess!"
"Pfft—I don’t believe it either!" said the Andulan elder.
"I didn’t believe it at the time either! Then she said that I had to solve a riddle, and if I got it right, she’d spare my life." Liu Shock sighed, "She said, as a deity, you can’t just have the understanding of ordinary people."
"That really hits home! Imagine, if a deity really wanted to personally take your life, that deity would be seriously downgrading their status! It’s like a Dragon Knight raping a madwoman in the wilderness—an outright humiliation!" The Andulan elder chuckled, "A deity should act high and mighty! If they’re all brutal and vicious like bandits, they don’t deserve to be called deities." freēwēbnovel.com
"Damn! I’m so tired of these tricks!" Liu Shock curled his lip, "What’s the difference between being starved to death after having your limbs broken and being killed with one swift cut? They say there’s a way out, but it’s nothing but struggling to hold on and just dying slower. Where’s the real way out?"
"Did you solve her riddle?"
"Solve it my ass! Her riddle was, ’In the morning it walks on four legs, at noon on two legs, and in the evening on three.’" Liu Shock chuckled, "How could I solve that, it’s too abstract!"
"Then how come she didn’t finish you off?" asked the Andulan elder, curious.
"I tricked her with a poem. I told her I couldn’t solve it, but not long ago I composed a poem at the Temple of Goddess Moni in Cambridge Oasis. How about I compose another for you now, as a parting gift before I die?"
"What did she say?"
"She laughed and said that if my writing was good, she might consider letting me become an imam of the scriptures."
"Haha, amusing!"
"Then I composed a poem and gave it to her..." Liu Shock said with a stony face, "Thinking about it now, I really was bold as brass..."
"Heh heh..." The Andulan elder barely contained his laughter.
"Old man, that goddess laughed just like you did!" Liu Shock pursed his lips with a bitter smile, "Then I took the opportunity to make my move, who asked her to laugh so hard."
"Give up! No matter what, even if a divine incarnation enters our world and their strength is greatly diminished, and can be killed, I still don’t think you and Yitiao could handle it! Even if a Giant Dragon turns into an ant, it’s still the strongest ant! The same goes for the incarnation of a deity!" The Andulan elder stopped before the head of the Giant ant, stroked his chin for a while, then lifted the wrinkled, large eyelid of the human-faced ant’s head.
The Giant ant’s eyelid was as big as a ball, and the elder struggled to flip it.
"Elder, what you’re saying isn’t right. The Evil-eye Tyrant was so powerful, and I still took care of it. To hell with divine or not divine, once you enter this world, you have to follow the rules. If you should die, then you’ll die!" Liu Shock declared with pride.
"Heh heh..." The Andulan elder laughed while looking at the pupil of the ant, "Richard, first you tell me, how exactly did you and Yitiao kill this Giant ant?"
"Why don’t you take a guess at how the two of us did it?" Liu Shock cackled with glee.
"Yitiao must have transformed into a fire crane in an instant, firing off a volley of feathers, then pulled out two goose feather knives," the Andulan elder lifted his head and replied without hesitation, "As for you, little scoundrel, you’re now out of Blood Magic, you must have started with a strength-draining aura, then grabbed an axe nearby and lunged!"
"Truly a Dragon Clan combat genius! You’ve seen right through my tactics!" Liu Shock laughed heartily.
"Enough nonsense! Did you or did you not feed your ’Blood Soul Tuo Du’ to Guoguo?" The Andulan elder’s gaze fell back on the Giant ant, curling his lip, "Richard, according to Dragon Clan legends, in the ancient barbaric era, the Holy Giant Dragon once exiled four terrible demons at four different locations in the Aegean Continent! This must be the Blue-eyed Khmer Giant ant! Just like the Evil-eye Tyrant, it’s one of the four Prehistoric Demon Beasts exiled by the Holy Giant Dragon! But it’s supposed to have the face of a beautiful woman, isn’t it? How did it turn into an old hag? You’ve had me wondering, I couldn’t be sure."
"Really? Four disasters exiled by the Holy Giant Dragon?" Liu Shock exaggerated a gesture, "That’s too far-fetched, isn’t it?"
"And I thought the divine-demon war was just a legend!" The Andulan elder let out a cold, sneering laugh.
"Old man, if this really is a Blue-eyed Khmer Giant ant, don’t you think that if Guoguo absorbs its blood, she could suddenly advance to become Saint Chiao?" Liu Shock asked the elder.
