Chapter 665 - 665 Demon In The Cave? (1)

665 Demon In The Cave? (1)

Hong Zhijie glanced at the remains of the Demon Rock Giant that had been blown up by the crystal core cannon in the chaos. His expression was visibly anxious.

Not to mention the critical crystal core.

Even the remains were precious materials.

After all, it was the corpse of a Level 8 beast. It could be exchanged for a lot of money.

However, just as they sensed that something was wrong and were about to obtain the crystal core first, they were bombarded by cannon fire from the city wall.

If not for Taotie’s sturdy body and the fact that there were no more mercenaries rushing over at that time.

Many people would probably die from the bombardment.

Of course, with the change in situation, Taotie was in a difficult position.

After all, the buff given by the Gorilla Shaman was not permanent.

Therefore, when the group retreated to the blind spot of the cannons under the city wall, many bumpy wounds appeared on Taotie’s body.

It looked much more miserable than when it fought the Demon Rock Giant.

With this comparison, one could see how much the previous buffs had improved Taotie.

Fortunately, in this way, the healing beasts that had come to be part of the show were now useful.

They kept healing Taotie, who seemed to be seriously injured.

Although Shi Lei had been saying that it was nothing serious.

However, they could not resist the “passion” of these mercenaries.

After all, they still hoped that Shi Lei could give them some money after he got the Level 8 crystal core.

Then, this trip would not be in vain.

However, from the looks of the current situation, it was probably a little uncertain.

Some of the mercenaries who felt that they were unlucky had even begun to slip away against the wall.

Since they could not enter from this side, they would just change the city gate they were trying to enter from.

They did not believe that the people inside could close all four gates of Qingquan City.

On the other hand, the mercenaries who had contributed the most previously followed closely behind Shi Lei and Mark. They wanted to see what their backbone was going to do.

After all, the bombardment inside had stopped. Perhaps there was a turn of events?

Wei Zhou and the others, who were mixed in the crowd, also looked relieved.

“F*ck! Fortunately, we didn’t go out just now. If a crystal core cannon round landed on our heads, we would be in big trouble.”

“Indeed, but are the people of Qingquan f*cking crazy? How dare they bombard us with cannons like this? Aren’t they afraid of being punished?”

Listening to Wang Bo and Wu San’er’s conversation, Wei Zhou also found it very strange.

This made no sense at all.

“I don’t know… Maybe there’s internal strife? Or are they planning to snatch the Level 8 crystal core after seeing it?”

Speaking of crystal cores, Wei Zhou looked at Wei Jianbin, who had been sitting calmly at the side.

He had been very puzzled by the battle just now. After thinking about it for a while, he asked for advice.

“Old Wei, do you think a Level 3 beast can really fight a Level 8 beast with the help of those skills that increase its status?”

“Or is there something wrong with that Level 8 beast?”

Hearing Wei Zhou’s words, Wei Jianbin shook his head and nodded.

“I don’t know about the previous question either.”

“However, from the Tauren Shaman’s previous abilities, the increase is indeed huge, be it for humans or beasts.”

“However, I’m not sure if that alone is sufficient to put a Level 3 against a Level 8.”

“After all, our Level 3 beasts are not so big.”

At this point, Wei Jianbin paused and began to answer Wei Zhou’s question.

“But there’s indeed something wrong with this Level 8 beast.”

“At least more than ten years ago, the Demon Rock Giant I saw had more abilities than this.”

“Do you know why it’s called the ‘Demon Rock’?”

Wei Zhou shook his head.

Wu San’er and Wang Bo, who had been cursing those people in Qingquan City, also looked over curiously.

“The so-called demonic rock is to allow the ‘rocks’ on its body to have all kinds of magic power.”

“However, apart from throwing rocks, this Demon Rock Giant hasn’t used any other abilities today. This is clearly abnormal.”

“At the very least, compared to the Level 6 Demon Rock Giant I saw back then that suddenly grew from 6 meters to 16 meters, this Level 8 Demon Rock Giant is really too abnormal.”

Hearing Wei Jianbin’s words, Wei Zhou felt as if he had smelled a conspiracy.

Why had a Demon Rock Giant, a Level 8 one, that had not appeared for so long once again appeared, weaker than the Level 6 ones he had seen more than ten years ago?

“Tsk~”

“Let’s go back to Jiangzhou!”

“It’s too dangerous outside. It’s safer in the beast world!”

Wei Zhou’s words were unanimously agreed by Wang Bo and Wu San’er.

Just as the three of them were discussing the strategy of hiding, the tightly shut city gate was suddenly opened again.

When many people heard the sound of the door opening, they thought that the people from Qingquan City wanted to kill them all and were prepared to retaliate.

Later on, they saw that the leader was Liu Gang, whom they had met once before.

“Everyone, the matter in Qingquan City has been resolved. Now, you can discuss the spoils of war without worry.”

Hong Zhijie, who had been tense, heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Liu Gang give him a reassuring look.

He was afraid that something would happen to Liu Gang in Qingquan.

At that time, there would be a huge problem!

Fortunately, it was a close call.
