MMORPG: War God, You are Invincible Again-Chapter 563 - 51 Mutated Demon Beast

Disturbed by the toxin, Lu Hong lost his balance and dove headfirst into the swamp after smashing the giant snake.

It took considerable effort for the five of them to escape from the swamp.

The four who managed to break free from the snake’s jaws kept thanking Lu Hong and informed him that Adonis was currently in grave danger, urging him not to venture deeper into the forest and to return honestly to the city ruins with them to wait for Earl Bacon’s rescue.

"I am the support sent by Earl Bacon."

With one sentence, Lu Hong crushed their hopes.

"Just you alone?"

"Yes," replied Lu Hong, "Why were you trapped here? Where are the others?"

"We were scattered by the demon beasts. We were assigned by the general to clear the rear battlefield, but after the general led the team away, our squad of two hundred encountered several stealth attacks by demon beasts. Out of necessity, the captain decided to abandon the clearing mission and led us to find the main force. Despite our utmost caution, we still got separated because of the demon beast’s stealth attacks."

Lu Hong nodded, then said, "I need to continue deeper to investigate what exactly happened in Adonis. You can follow the original path back. The route I took here had fewer demon beasts and is relatively safer."

Having seen Lu Hong smash the giant snake with a punch, unharmed by the poison, and aware of his strength, they knew they would only hold him back if they stayed with him, so they all nodded, "Please be very careful, Sir. We will await your good news."

"By the way," Lu Hong asked again as they were saying goodbye, "Do you know if there are any teleportation gates in Adonis to get out, or does your unit have any space mages?"

The four soldiers shook their heads, "Adonis only has one teleportation gate, and according to Deputy General Li, it seems to have been sabotaged and cannot be used. As for space mages, our unit originally had two, but they were already reassigned by Earl Bacon and were not included in this operation to clear Adonis."

"Alright." Lu Hong nodded, "Please be very careful."

After parting with the four, Lu Hong continued on his journey.

Having learned his lesson, although Lu Hong knew that the demon beasts had increased in strength after mutating, he had no specific concept of it. If it weren’t for the powerful recovery brought by his Bloodline Power, Lu Hong might have had trouble on his own.

From then on, whenever he encountered a demon beast in the dense forest, Lu Hong would study it carefully.

Under the influence of the raging aura from the Abyss of Ultimate Demons, each demon beast had its own special mutation and was extremely lethal, possessing considerable destructive power.

Ordinary humans of the same level would almost certainly die if they carelessly fell victim to the demon beasts’ cunning tricks.

After leaving the swamp area, the number of demon beasts along the way noticeably increased, and they began to move in packs; still, Lu Hong could manage them with his keen skills for the time being.

But if the number exceeded two digits, Lu Hong could not be sure that he could kill them all and escape unscathed.

After passing through the dense forest, Lu Hong arrived at the valley where he initially rescued the soldiers; indeed, as said, it was filled with the fragmented corpses of human soldiers, chewed up by the demon beasts, a sight revolting to behold.

The human army had been completely hunted down, and the demon beast army had also withdrawn. Only some weaker demon beasts, unable to resist the temptation of flesh, continued to greedily chew on human flesh.

Seeing Lu Hong appear, they revealed their fangs and pounced towards him.

Demom beasts below level three were easily torn apart by Lu Hong with his bare hands. Seeing such a ferocious human, many demon beasts grew fearful and turned around to dive back into the forest behind them and disappeared.

Lu Hong couldn’t regard these demon beasts as low-level fools, so he shook off the blood on his hands, narrowed his eyes slightly, and followed in the direction where the demon beasts had fled.

Indeed, within half an hour, Lu Hong discovered tens of thousands of level four demon beasts resting by a lakeside, and at the center was a level five demon beast, comparable to a human at the early peak of Second Transition Level 3!

This must be the group that executed the army massacre; at first glance, it seemed nothing special, but Lu Hong knew that this group of demon beasts was probably not easy to deal with.

The cowardly fleeing demon beasts encountered their kin and finally began howling, like children bullied outside returning home to cry.

This noise caused many demon beasts to look up in attention.

And a larger-sized demon beast approached them, questioning.

After some howling back and forth, the low-level demon beasts, led by their kin, came before the level five demon beast.

After listening to their story, the level five demon beast turned to its followers and let out a roar, likely marshaling its forces.

Hearing their leader’s call, three peak level four demon beasts came forward and kneeled beside the level five demon beast.

After getting a sign from the level five demon beast, the relieved low-level demon beast was overjoyed. Its wailing immediately turned boastful.

The three level four demon beasts closely followed the low-level demon beast in the direction of the valley.

Seeing this, Lu Hong couldn’t help but think, are these beasts bringing back reinforcements?

Interesting.

After pondering for a moment, Lu Hong decided to retreat back to the valley first. The area was very close to where the demon beast army was resting, and if he disturbed tens of thousands of demon beasts, Lu Hong certainly wouldn’t be able to withstand them.

When he re-entered the valley, he just happened upon the return of the four demon beasts.

Without any unnecessary chatter, three Level 4 Demon Beasts immediately launched an attack on Lu Hong.

Among them was a Demon Wolf breed, originally at the peak of Level 4, fast in speed but still within a normal range and not difficult to handle. However, under the strange influence of the abyss’s aura, even Lu Hong could only see a blur speeding past.

Not good!

Utterly surprised, Lu Hong quickly dodged to the side.

But he was still a beat too slow, and the Demon Wolf tore three bloody gashes across his chest.

After rolling continuously for three rounds, Lu Hong steadied himself only to find the Demon Wolf pressing close once again.

Roar!

Lionheart’s Roar suddenly activated, stunning the Demon Wolf. Without giving it a chance to react, Lu Hong punched hard on its head.

The speed-enhanced Demon Wolf apparently had not evolved robust defenses and had its head smashed by Lu Hong, slumping to the ground.

A sparkling Demon Core fell into the pool of blood.

The Demon Core was of no use to Lu Hong, so he did not bother to pick it up, instead keeping a close watch on the other two Level 4 Demon Beasts stirring restlessly.

The defeat of the Demon Wolf served as a profound lesson to the other two beasts. The second to appear was a massive ape with silvery white fur all over its body, its eyes full of intelligence.

Just by looking at its eyes, one could see it was no different from a human.

Uncertain of his opponent’s capabilities, Lu Hong did not make the first move.

The ape called out to its companion a few times, and the mole-like Demon Beast nodded, burrowing into the ground. Within a ten-meter radius centered on the ape, a dull yellow glow emerged, transforming into a domain that firmly protected the ape.

Seeing this scene, Lu Hong guessed, could this ape be a Mage?

The next second, a series of natural spells shot out from between the ape’s fingers, confirming his guess.

Holy shit!

The fact that a Demon Beast could use natural magic—water, fire, lightning, and earth magic Lu Hong could accept, but natural magic was definitely unacceptable. He knew many species of Demon Beasts, but had never seen any capable of mastering natural magic.

This mutation was truly fucking random and outrageous!

Just as he finished complaining, numerous ancient wood spikes burst from the ground, attacking Lu Hong’s vital points.

Without a weapon in hand, Lu Hong did not dare intercept with his bare hands, fearing some special effects might accompany the ape’s magical skills, and his damage resistance might not withstand such torment.

Wooden spikes emerged from all directions, nearly cutting off all of Lu Hong’s escape routes.

With no other choice, Lu Hong leaped into the air.

But this action played right into the ape’s hands, allowing it to instantly activate a prepared skill.

Dozens of manchineel vines with reverse thorns burst from the ground, tightly binding Lu Hong’s ankles. The reverse thorns penetrated his body, greatly reducing his chance of escaping.

"Damn it!" Lu Hong couldn’t help but curse, lacking a suitable weapon and being of a lower level, unable to cast Second Transition skills made him very uncomfortable.

Now, the only thing he could rely on was his Bloodline Power. Under the urging of Lu Hong’s thoughts, King of the Lions was activated once again.

Violent power surged around Lu Hong, shattering the entwining vines.

Lu Hong, descending, threw a punch, transforming the wooden spikes into dust with his overwhelming pressure.

Touching the ground, Lu Hong used a short run-up to charge towards the ape.

Covering a hundred-meter distance in an instant, as soon he touched the domain area set by the mole Demon Beast, Lu Hong felt as if he had fallen into a quagmire, unable to exert any strength through his body.

At that moment, the ape was preparing an even more powerful magical skill.

Lionheart’s Roar burst forth.

Although the ape and the mole had been prepared, they still underestimated the power of the roar, their skills abruptly cut off.

Seizing this opportunity, Lu Hong flashed forward, grabbed the ape’s head, and twisted it off.

Seeing its companion dead, the mole Demon Beast turned tail and fled. freewēbnoveℓ.com

Lu Hong, unwilling to let it escape, gathered his strength and stomped hard, causing the earth within a hundred miles to collapse instantly, forcing the mole Demon Beast’s form to emerge.

Spotted by Lu Hong, it naturally had no chance to escape.

After killing the three Level 4 Demon Beasts, Lu Hong turned to look at another low-level Demon Beast already slumped on the ground.
