The Hard-Armored Salamander quickly flew to the other side.
A moment later, a figure appeared before it.
It was a giant python nearly a hundred meters long, its entire body jet black with brown reticulations covering its skin.
At this moment, it propped up its upper body, watching the place where the beast tide was making unusual movements.
Upon seeing the Hard-Armored Salamander arrive, it turned its gaze towards it.
"Humans?"
"Um."
"How many?"
"There seem to be over a hundred, but only one is at the Fifth Tier!"
"Laugh--"
The Long Python grinned and let out a sinister laugh.
"With so few people, they dare to provoke us?"
"Isn't this just how humans are?" The Hard-Armored Salamander frowned, its gaze icy.
"That's true!" The Long Python chuckled, then asked, "Did they come to call me over to deal with them?"
"Hmm, otherwise why would I come looking for you!" the Hard-Armored Salamander said irritably.
Ignoring him, the Long Python grinned.
"By the way, there are also humans on their way to that city; they'll be there in a little while!" the Hard-Armored Salamander reminded them.
"Oh? Humans from that city have come out too? How many are at the Fifth Tier?" The Long Python's gaze was fixed on the Hard-Armored Salamander.
"I'm not sure, but there are at least three!" the Hard-Armored Salamander replied in a deep voice.
"Looks like I'll be able to eat my fill this time..."
The Long Python spoke slowly, a sinister smile spreading across its lips.
Since entering the Erosion Zone, it has rarely had a full meal. The food provided to it is barely enough to fill its stomach, even though it is only Fifth Tier creature that is hundreds of meters tall.
The Calamity Beast below would then be used to fill the cannons of those humans. Except for the time after each war when they could eat their fill, they were mostly hungry!
Although being hungry or not eating enough won't cause much harm to Fifth Tier Calamity Beast, it's still uncomfortable!
One, plus at least three!
There are four; it should be able to get one.
The thought of that feeling of fullness made the Long Python's body wriggle slightly.
The only drawback is that those humans are all too small to provide a good texture when eating them!
"Alright, enough talk. Let's go and deal with those humans over there first, so we can better handle the humans coming from that city later!" the Hard-Armored Salamander said in a deep voice.
Having said that, it turned around and quickly flew towards the direction where the human had attacked.
The Long Python grinned maliciously and quickly moved in that direction as well.
However, instead of flying over like the Hard-Armored Salamander, it skimmed along the ground and swam quickly over.
Along the way, the Calamity Beast that had no time to dodge were all knocked away.
The area covered by the more than 10,000 Calamity Beast is quite large, but for Fifth Tier Calamity Beast, it is really not that big.
In a short while, the two Calamity Beast approached the humans who had attacked them.
After knocking away several more Calamity Beast, the Long Python saw the Hard-Armored Salamander, which had been flying in the air, suddenly swing its claws and pounce downwards.
Have we arrived yet?
The Long Python grinned maliciously, and in its mental perception, it saw a gleaming figure ahead raise its blade and behead a Calamity Beast.
Seemingly sensing the attack from the Hard-Armored Salamander, the figure suddenly turned to the side, swiftly slashing upwards with his long sword.
"Clang--"
A piercing metallic clang rang out.
The two figures were each forced backward by the force of the impact.
The Long Python slightly adjusted its direction, aimed at the human, and quickly swam towards him.
After knocking away several more Calamity Beast, it suddenly rose upwards, raising the front quarter of its body.
Its beastly eyes were crimson as it stared at the figure that was still flying backwards but was also looking at it.
"Humanity--"
With a piercing roar, the slender snake body, using its head as a cone, suddenly thrust downwards at an angle.
"Rustling sound--"
The wind howled piercingly.
In my field of vision, there was that human...
Okay, the human was completely covered in black armor, so his expression couldn't be seen, but the Long Python didn't seem to care.
Even if it only raises a quarter of its body, that's still twenty or thirty meters long, combined with its speed.
Humanity cannot stop them!
With this thought in mind, the Long Python's body rapidly descended.
The scenario that was initially anticipated—a human mobilizing a large amount of Origin Power to rush to the side—did not occur.
He seemed not to have reacted yet, or perhaps he hadn't expected to do it this way, or maybe he was too arrogant, thinking he could withstand his own collision.
The human... backward... raised his long sword.
Even in the midst of battle, the Long Python couldn't help but let out a disdainful twitch at the corner of its mouth.
Although I didn't have high hopes for these humans to begin with, this performance was just too terrible!
It was even thinking that after killing the humans coming from the city behind, it should emphasize that it didn't want this human, otherwise, it was afraid that it would become stupid after eating this human.
Thinking this, the Long Python's head, thrusting downwards, showed no sign of slowing down.
Its enormous head rapidly slid downwards.
The distance between them closed rapidly in an instant.
only...
At one moment, the Long Python's body stiffened slightly.
In his field of vision, the human was still poised to raise his sword and confront him head-on, but...
On the left, a sharp point is rapidly magnifying.
When did it come from? Where did it come from? Is there a second Fifth Tier?
These three questions flashed through the Long Python's mind, but it didn't think about them, nor did it have time to think about them now.
Looking at the two images, one on the left and one in front.
In an instant, years of fighting instincts allowed the Long Python to quickly understand the human's intentions.
The one in front of me was trying to deceive me, to make me think that this human in front of me was incapable of resisting, thus making me focus all my attention on him. When I was about to lose my way, he would then send another person to attack, hoping to kill me!
but...
You're seriously underestimating the defensive capabilities, combat intelligence, and fighting abilities of the Calamity Beast!
The Long Python glanced sideways at the attack from its left.
At this level, it can only be severely injured at most!
However, if it were a regular Calamity Beast, it might be difficult to deal with. The only option would be to confront the humans in front head-on and try to gather Origin Power for defense to see if they could withstand the attack from the left, but...
Who brought these two humans together with themselves?
The Long Python grinned maliciously, its muscles twitching rapidly, its body, still pressed against the ground, shifting slightly.
In the blink of an eye, the head was turned in the right direction.
Although his body was still leaning forward, his head was now pointing directly at the incoming arrow.
It gathered Origin Power Origin Power front of its head and on the sides of its body.
The ones in front were naturally there to deflect the arrow, while those on the sides were...
"Laugh--"
A dazzling flash of light suddenly illuminated the battlefield.
The sounds of artillery fire and the howls of the Calamity Beast continued, the only difference being the loud, agonizing screams that echoed across half the battlefield.
The Hard-Armored Salamander, which had stopped its fall and was about to move forward, froze in place.
It stared in disbelief at the snake's body, which was only a quarter of its original size, writhing on the ground.
Humans... one strike... how is that possible...?
