The City of Terror

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Naturally, the sea of flames had already finished half its mission. It had already burnt the Dark Priest and the majority of the Gargoyles clean. Even the black church was crackling under the flames with its stone walls becoming lava. The entire black church was like roasted cheeses that continued to soften and collapse.

After the lion’s head roared, the gorgon on the left side opened its eyes and stared, causing ash gray light to shoot out from its eyes toward the fiery line.

What stunned Wei Xiao Bei was that when the ash-gray light touched the fiery line, it stopped and turned ash gray. Then the light spread and approached the fiery bird.

At this time, he could see that after the monster turned into this three-headed six-armed creature, its strength had increased several levels. The fact that it could solidify the flames had already exceeded Wei Xiao Bei’s imagination.

One could tell that when the ash-gray colors reached the fiery bird, the fiery bird would have problems.

When the Shing Wong Border Patroller saw this scene, he hesitated. His face became firm as he grit his teeth. He crushed his tongue into powder and spat out with his mouth. A golden blood arrow had flown out from his mouth toward the body of the fiery bird.

Following the blood arrow entering the fiery bird’s body, the red fiery bird’s declining might suddenly shot up again. It opened its mouth and shot another fiery line that burned toward the monster.

Just like that, the two sides once again entered a deadlock.

The monster kept staring with its eyes, and the ash-gray color continued to spread. On the other hand, the border patroller spat blood causing the fiery bird to once again occupy the advantage as it continued to fight back.

Going back to the topic, it might appear to be a deadlock, but Wei Xiao Bei knew that the border patroller might not be able to persevere any longer.

After the border patroller spat out the blood arrow, his breathing was continuously getting weaker.

* Should I make my move?*

Wei Xiao Bei hesitated.

No matter what was said, he could feel that three-headed six-armed demonic monster was at least a 4-Star Creature just from the air that it gave off

Once he provoked these kinds of monsters, it would be very difficult to escape.

It must be known that the enemy had wings. Wings of monsters in the Dust World were rarely a decoration.

In general, it was easy to imagine the speed of flying monsters.

* Activate Bold and Decisive!*

Wei Xiao Bei had still decided in the end and used [Status Appraisal] on the monster.

Name: Demonified Three-headed Centaur (Weakened, Strengthening State)

Race: Demon

Gender: ??

Age: ??

Creature Rank: 4-Star Elite (Because remote projection had been cut off, strength has decreased to 3-Star Terror. After eating the Dark Priest’s soul, temporarily increased to 4-Star Elite)

Status: Unknown

Skill: Unknown

Evolution Points: X (Unable to accumulate evolution points)

Items on Hand: Unknown

…

After looking at its status panel, Wei Xiao Bei could not help but rejoice.

It could be said that letting the Digging Pig strike the oval boulder was considered a stroke of genius. Otherwise, if it had completed the projection, then who knows how strong the monster would become. After being weakened, it was still actually a 3-Star Terror Creature. After eating the Dark Priest’s soul it had temporarily become a 4-Star Elite. This was simply illogical!

Moreover, it was able to block the fiery bird’s previous attack with just its 3-Star Terror level of strength.

Naturally, this might be thanks to its special skill, allowing it to block the flames.

No matter how much Wei Xiao Bei cursed at it, it had already noticed him when he used [Status Appraisal].

Following the effects of [Status Appraisal], the Three-headed Centaur felt as if he had been stepped on by someone. It jumped up, and its three heads looked in Wei Xiao Bei’s direction.

It had no choice but to respond, as Wei Xiao Bei’s [Status Appraisal] was simply too disgusting.

No matter how strong one was, as long as the [Status Appraisal] landed on their bodies, they would feel as if their inner hearts had been peeked at. Even if Wei Xiao Bei did not see anything, it would still happen.

On the other hand, when it happened to the strong centaur, its impulse to attack was unimaginably powerful.

It had never experienced this before. Even the main body that was located somewhere else had opened its eyes.

In simpler terms, the current situation was a battle of experts where one expert had suddenly been startled by an outside force.

Just like that, the centaur had split its attention. At the very least, the gorgon head had split its attention which stopped its eyes that were solidifying the flames.

In an instant, the fiery line that was being suppressed quickly broke through the ash-gray flames and hit the centaur’s body.

Boom!

The fiery line appeared as if gasoline had been doused in itas the centaur had instantly ignited, becoming a giant flame pillar.

The centaur immediately howled. This kind of flame appeared a lot stronger than the previous flames. The centaur painfully howled as the impulse to knock its head on the ground appeared in its mind.

The gas that the centaur’s mouth and nose exhaled had been ignited, creating even more flames. The most important thing was that the flames that the centaur had been breathing out were also mixed in.

These two kinds of flames were different.

The flames that the centaur was breathing out were tangerine yellow, while the flames that the fiery bird breathed out were deep red, so deep that it made others tremble.

“Keduoxiya!”

The lion head roared. The sound waves pushed back. On the other hand, the gorgon did something inexplicable. It had bitten the goat head in the middle and restrained it, preventing it from struggling. The snakes on her hair were also bitting as the other party could not struggle at all.

* Internal discord?*

Seeing this scene, Wei Xiao Bei was stunned.

In just a few seconds, the goat head was like a wilted flower as it dried up.

On the other hand, the gorgon was like it had eaten supplements. Its body swelled up as it sucked, making it appear like a muscle builder.

Compared to other creatures, it appeared incredibly unbalanced as if it was about to fall on its side.

However, for the centaur, this was not a problem at all. Following the swelling of its body, the lower horse half suddenly grew four more legs. It now had a total of eight legs, making its body steadier.

Green fog immediately came out from the snakehead, pressuring the flames that had charged at it. At this time, the centaur did not stand on the spot. It had decided to charge toward the Shing Wong Border Patroller.

It was clear to it that once it killed the Shing Wong Border Patroller, it would be victorious and did not need to fight with the fiery bird anymore.

The eight-legged three-headed demonic centaur was quite fast. In less than three seconds, it was able to reach the border patroller.

The Shing Wong Border Patroller would never await his death. His expression was desperate as he stabbed his hands on his chest. In an instant, golden blood sprayed out, becoming a golden official’s hat. It had grown wings and flew toward the fiery bird.

In truth, Wei Xiao Bie was stunned when he saw this. This change was simply too shocking.

However, it could also be seen that the border patroller already placed his life and death outside the body. As the golden official’s cap flew out, his body immediately collapsed on the ground without moving. His breath gradually weakened as he appeared to have fainted.

Just like that, if the centaur charged at his body, it would be impossible for him to dodge.

On the contrary, the golden official’s cap had merged with the fiery bird. In less than a second, the fiery bird grew three gorgeous thirty-feet-long rainbow-colored tails.

“Phoenix!???”

Wei Xiao Bei suddenly cried out. Luckily, he was able to control it immediately.

The fiery bird that was soaring in the sky was truly like a phoenix. If it only had three crests located on a Phoenix’s head and the seven-colored plumes, it would truly look like one.

Whoosh!

At this time, the fiery bird continued to spray flames while dragging its magnificent tail as it charged toward the centaur.

In an instant, the fiery bird appeared as if it had become a meteor. It moved incredibly fast so that even Wei Xiao Bei’s [Eagle Eye] could only see the tail of the meteor.

Boom!

A loud sound echoed as the centaur could not even respond to the meteor-like attack. A mushroom cloud of dust appeared to have formed as fiery light shot out and expanded everywhere. In an instant, the wind dragged by the meteor had become a firestorm that spread in its surroundings. The entire scene appeared as if an atomic bomb had dropped.

How could Wei Xiao Bei even dare to hesitate? He immediately buried himself deeper and curled up to decrease the area of effect on his body.

Whoosh!

The wind passed by. Wei Xiao Bei instantly felt the weight of the soil covering his body had been largely decreased. At the same time, a hard to suppress heat was transmitted from the soil.

Luckily, Wei Xiao Bei had [Flame Resistance] and a powerful defense. The damage from the heat transmitted had been decreased by seventy percent. Afterward, his powerful healing ability displayed its power.

His skin that had been burnt white was gradually healing but was also burnt over and over again. This repeated ten times before the power of the heat decreased.

Wei Xiao Bei looked up and saw that the soil covering him had been blown away.

When he came out from the hole, he jumped into the air, surveying his surroundings. However, he discovered that with the black church as the center, everything in a five hundred meter radius had turned to a bright, red magma.
