Last Totem Novel - Chapter 314

Chapter 314 Long Wei

Uneven waves rose again and again. Even Tie Zha, whose combat strength was close to Saint Rank, was like this, let alone the others. In an instant, everyone present felt their feet go limp and fell to the ground. Some of them even fell into madness as they hugged their heads and screamed miserably on the ground. In just a few seconds, more than ten people fell into the abyss due to fear.

After an unknown amount of time, perhaps a dozen seconds, perhaps half a minute, perhaps a few minutes, Tie Zha, who was the first to regain consciousness, steadied himself and walked to the edge of the cliff to look down. With a single glance, he was stunned by the scene below. In the bottomless pitch-black, ink-like darkness, a pair of scarlet-red, blood-like eyes were slowly moving upwards. When he fixed his eyes, he saw that the eyeball was located on the opposite cliff, several hundred meters away from here.

The cliffs on both sides of the abyss were tens of meters narrowest, thousands or even tens of thousands of meters wide. However, the distance between them was neither far nor near. This side of Tie Zha is now known as the “Great East Wall,” while the opposite side is the “Great West Wall.”

To get a better look at the situation, Tie Zha activated the telescopic system on his helmet. After a few seconds of focusing, the image became blurry and clear. Tie Zha finally saw the colossus below. His expression froze, and even his breathing became difficult. Through the far-reaching lenses, one could see a hundred-meter-long Abyss Demonic Dragon covered in dark green scales, with its fleshly wings folded together. At this moment, it was hooking up the rock wall and slowly climbing up. From above, its head was twice as big as a container truck, with sharp horns and sharp scales that resembled fins.

The Abyss Demonic Dragon, the top of the bottomless abyss food chain, was the most powerful carbon-based creature in the multiverse. That loud roar just now was precisely the Demonic Dragon’s innate “Dragon Might”.

Suddenly, Tie Zha remembered what Eva had said to him before he set off. “If you encounter any Abyss Devil Dragons of any color or type, don’t hesitate to retreat immediately. Even a few human Saint Rankers might not be their match. Your strength is not enough to plug the gaps between their teeth.”

However, in this situation, unless he gave up most of his team members, he would not be able to escape. He was a simple person, and after a moment of hesitation, he made his decision.

“Turn off all vehicles’ engines, power supplies, light sources, and then lie down without making any noise.” Tie Zha pressed the intercom button on the side of the helmet and said in a calm voice. According to the records in the book, due to the dim light in the abyss, the Green Scaled Demonic Dragon evolved from the Giant Lizard of the Abyss had poor eyesight and mainly relied on sound to identify its location. Judging from its actions just now, it had already eaten enough, so it released its dragon might to chase away the small creature.

The team members gradually recovered from the panic and shut down all kinds of equipment. Then, they quietly lay on the ground and remained motionless.

“Boss, you go first. I’m here.” The porcupine opened a separate communication and whispered to Tie Zha.

“Guild Leader, bring the porcupines and the others first. I’ll just stay.” “Boss, take Tuoba San and the others and leave first. There’s no need to die together.” At the same time, Jerome and the match were connected to a separate voice.

Tie Zha did not answer. He directly switched to communicating alone. Then, he lay on the edge of the cliff and stared fixedly at the climbing Green Scaled Demonic Dragon. There were many types of demonic dragons in the Abyss. Some evolved from giant lizards, while others evolved from other species. The strongest of them was evolved from intelligent creatures.

In the carbon life span of the multiverse, there are many intelligent creatures. When they evolved to a certain extent, or the energy density within their bodies exceeded the limit that the plane they were on could withstand, they would tear apart the void and follow the energy torrent to the bottomless abyss. However, only a handful of intelligent creatures could evolve into Abyss Devil Dragons. Most of them would only evolve into another form at the top of the food chain-the Great Abyss Devil.

Compared to the Abyss Devil Dragon, the Abyss Great Devil’s body structure was closer to that of a human. They were also divided into male and female. Male didn’t have a special name, but female usually called them “charming devils.” In addition, there was a third sex in the Great Abyss-androgyny.

The strength and physique of the Great Abyss Devils were far from each other. Some of them were inferior to human Saint Ranks, while others were comparable to Purple Gold Demonic Dragons. Although gender, strength, and body shape are different, they have one thing in common: bloodthirst, sadism, brutality, and low IQ. Most of them have lost the language ability and moral standards of intelligent creatures. In their degenerated brain tissues, only the law of the jungle and naked desire are left.

The Green Scaled Demonic Dragon in front of him was equivalent to the strength of ten to twenty ordinary Saint-ranked humans. However, this assessment was very rough. As for how rough it was? According to the school textbooks, there were 633 official records of human slaughtering dragons, of which 620 were killed by Green Scaled Demonic Dragons. Dividing the number of Saint-ranked people who participated in killing the Green Scaled Demonic Dragon by the number of times they killed the Green Scaled Demonic Dragon, the result was 15.03. From this, one could obtain this rough and extreme combat strength assessment.

On the one hand, this data ignored the combat power of Saint realm experts. Simply put, a hundred fully-armed power-armored warriors could easily kill a Saint-ranked warrior with standard combat strength. On the other hand, there was also a gap between the Green Scaled Demonic Dragons. They had just reached adulthood for thousands of years, were injured or healthy, hungry and tired or energetic, and had different combat strength. In the third aspect, the gap between human Saint ranks was not small. There were some Saint-ranked humans. If they were bare-handed, they would have to turn around and run when they saw Tie Zha at this moment. Of course, this type was definitely the weakest Saint Rank.

But then again, although the academy’s evaluation data had a high error rate and the inference method was extremely rough, it also reflected the strength of the Green Scaled Demonic Dragon from the side. Moreover, regardless of whether it was equivalent to ten Saint Ranks, twenty, or even three thousand Saint Ranks, there was no difference in the current situation. If there was a difference, it was the question of whether it would take them one second longer or one second less to kill them.

As time passed, the atmosphere on the mountain path became more and more tense. Even Tie Zha’s back was cold and cold sweat broke out. As he watched the demonic dragon slowly climb up, he felt as if time had come to a halt, and it was moving extremely slowly.

In the endless darkness, silence, fear, and tension, time passed minute by minute …

More than an hour later, the demonic dragon stretched out its ten meter long front claw, grabbed onto a protrusion on the opposite Great Western Wall, and climbed up. Its claws had sunk deeply into the stone wall. In its eyes, the hard stone might be earth-like.

When the giant head of the demonic dragon appeared a few hundred meters away, the panic and sensory shock was indescribable.

Seeing the clumsy movements of the demonic dragon, Iron Cinder suddenly understood that the reason it was climbing was because this place was too narrow. It was unable to spread its wings, so it could only crawl in such a depressed manner. Tie Zha couldn’t help but think that if he had enough troops now, wouldn’t it be a good time to slaughter a dragon? If he succeeded in slaying the dragon, his reputation as a knight would be worthy of his title, and the words “Little Black Face” would naturally disappear without a fight.

However, he only thought about it. Although his strength had increased recently, he hadn’t inflated to the point where he forgot who he was. He mistakenly thought that he was invincible under the heavens and could slaughter dragons.

“Huala … Huala … Huala … Huala … Huala … Huala … Huala … Huala … Huala …”

Along with the demonic dragon’s climb, large pieces of rocks fell down like mud. It wasn’t hard to imagine that these falling stones would soon turn into ashes when they fell at a high speed. However, this phenomenon is only a mainstream deduction. This was because no one had ever experienced it personally, and they could still return to this world and tell other humans about this strange experience. It was as if no one could describe the feeling of death, because after experiencing people, they were no longer able to communicate with other humans.

Some scientists speculated that the bottomless abyss was infinitely close to the lower plane, while the lower plane was infinitely close to the higher plane. Perhaps if they fell, they would not die immediately, but would arrive at another plane that was higher than the bottomless abyss. The bottomless abyss may be the link between the “carbon-based life span” and the “material life span” in the inferences of such scientists.

Big scientists have experimented with placing a spherical transmitter into the abyss and then continuously tracking the transmitter’s signals. When it descended to a depth of several million meters, the transmitter was completely disconnected. Perhaps it had left the maximum range of the signal radiation, perhaps it had been damaged in high-speed motion, or perhaps it had gone to another plane. Currently, humans’ upward and downward probes were less than a million meters away from Dawn Stronghold. Therefore, most theories were only at the stage of speculation and inference, and there was no exact truth.

After the demonic dragon climbed up, it lay on the edge of the cliff and looked over. The scales covering the demonic dragon’s entire body were emitting dim light. The surface was extremely smooth, both like metal and jade.

“Hualala …”

Right at this moment, the demonic dragon seemed to have caught onto a weak spot, causing a large-scale landslide to occur immediately. The large area of debris flow collapsed like a mountain torrent. Smoke and dust immediately spread throughout the entire area, and even the infrared line of sight was rendered ineffective.

“Wow! Run!” “Wow!” “Ah! Help!”

The sudden change was like the last straw that crushed the camel. Someone finally couldn’t stand the terror of overwhelming mountains and seas and went completely crazy. They got up out of control, and in the darkness, they were like lambs being chased by wild beasts, crawling along the mountain path and fleeing in a panic. In the chaos, people would occasionally fall off the cliff and let out miserable screams.

Tie Zha could not help but frown when he sensed the situation behind him, but he was still lying on the ground, not daring to act rashly.

A few seconds later, a deep and long dragon roar suddenly sounded from the opposite side. The sound was extremely penetrating, as if it was the sound of nature coming from a distant place. It was also like the sound of a golden jade collision. It was clear and crisp, echoing through the cliffs for a long time.

However, the heavens did not pity these weak creatures. A few seconds after the dragon’s roar ended, the heavens and earth suddenly changed color!

With a loud roar, the entire world turned red and bright. It was exceptionally hot, and a burnt smell of sulfur assaulted his nose. In that blurry vision, an incomparably thick pillar of volcanic fire sprayed out behind the convoy. The target was precisely the group of people who had fallen into chaos and fled in the dark …
