Chapter 161: Fighting the Gluttonous Beast
The tyrant smiled grimly, and no one knew what he was saying to the glutton, but it was definitely not something good.
The tyrant at this moment was emitting a scarlet light all over his body. He had turned into a bloody man. Every inch of his skin was oozing with blood, and in some places even the white bones were exposed. He looked extremely creepy, as if he had just crawled out of a pool of blood.
Not only that, the tyrant's aura continued to rise, and soon broke through the previous shackles and reached a new height, and this height was still rising, seemingly endlessly.
"Roar!" The tyrant roared towards the sky and threw a punch. The wind from his fist was filled with bloody energy, causing the space to distort and deform.
The glutton beast was unable to dodge and was hit head-on by the blood-colored energy. Its entire body was directly knocked away and slammed into the wall of the passage, knocking the entire wall down. This horrible punch actually broke the glutton beast's body into countless pieces of meat that flew everywhere.
"Interesting. I didn't expect you could come up with new tricks, but I like it." The tyrant licked his lips and a bloodthirsty smile appeared on his face.
"Oh no, Lord Alpha, that monster is devouring the Tyrant." Darwin's magic eyes clearly saw that the gluttonous beast was clinging to the Tyrant like a pool of mucus, devouring both energy and flesh madly.
"Darwin, you go first, leave this to me." Seeing that the body of the tyrant Gus was shrinking rapidly, Alpha knew that he didn't have much time left. Alpha looked down at the high-speed moving Gale and said resolutely: "Gale, you go too."
The current situation is not optimistic. Alpha has to face this horrible monster alone, and he won't even take his warhorse with him.
The warhorse neighed, as if unwilling to let its master take the risk alone.
"Then drink it and we'll kill them together." Alpha took out a bottle of purple potion, which was a product of the laboratory under the Menis Iron Mine.
Arthur didn't know if it was intentional or not, but he still didn't notice the small amount of potion in the secret room.
At this critical moment, the purple potions that Alpha carried with him seemed to be their last hope.
The warhorse nodded, indicating that it was willing to accept the challenge. The battlefield was dangerous, and it was difficult for a normal warhorse to survive in such an environment. Only mutation could give it a chance of survival.
The horses that drank the potion seemed to be undergoing great changes, their bodies became tougher and faster. However, time waits for no one, and Alpha must act quickly.
"Disgusting piece of meat, follow me if you dare." Alpha mocked loudly. The Glutton Fragments seemed to have a certain consciousness. They knew that the Tyrant was extremely short of energy, and they actually gave up the Tyrant and chose to chase Alpha.
Slowly, the pieces of meat began to gather together and turned into a giant python. The huge head was probably two meters in size, and the body was more than a hundred meters long. The key point was that its speed was almost catching up with the high-speed wind.
"So fast." Just as Alpha was surprised, a strong suction came from behind. The giant python actually ejected its tongue with the ability of a frog or lizard, and Alpha was swept away and swallowed into the giant python's belly.
Alpha was squeezed by the squirming polyp and couldn't move at all. At the same time, the corrosive force of the mucus made Alpha feel a severe burning sensation. Alpha tried all kinds of strength, but couldn't use it. It seemed that he was completely suppressed by the glutton.
"Use my power, I can solve the crisis for you." Suddenly a distant voice appeared in Alpha's mind.
"Who are you?" Alpha couldn't move, and didn't know who the other person was. He just felt that the voice seemed a little familiar.
"I am you and you are me. Just give your body to me and I can get you out of trouble." The voice tempted Alpha, as if he would get countless benefits once he accepted it.
"No, you are a devil." Alpha knew that it was the devil's hand on his right arm, which now had self-awareness. Once his body was occupied by the devil, it would be difficult to come back.
"You have no choice. Use my power now, or be devoured by the other party while I consume the gluttony energy. Hahaha, I will succeed in escaping." The devil laughed.
"That's not necessarily true. Nothing is invincible, and the same goes for Gluttony." After saying that, countless lightning burst out from Alpha's body. Alpha finally realized how to use the third commandment.
The lightning power that Alpha obtained is not complete, and can only be activated half. Alpha can only use it for self-explosion, and cannot launch it like magic.
The gluttonous beast was entangled by lightning, and the mucus in its body was instantly electrolyzed. A large amount of hydrogen and oxygen filled the gluttonous beast's body. With a loud bang, it exploded instantly.
"Let's stay away from here." Jifeng steadily caught Alpha who fell from the sky, and had no time to check the changes caused by Jifeng.
"I will come back. Sooner or later you won't be able to suppress me." The demon's voice became smaller and smaller. Alpha used lightning to completely deconstruct the body of Gluttony Beast, putting the demon's soul into a deep sleep, and at the same time obtained the Demon's Hand.
"Devour it for me." Alpha controlled the surrounding plants to frantically devour the minced meat on the ground. At the same time, the minced meat was also frantically devouring the plants. The two sides fell into a delicate balance.
"Let's go up and help." Alpha tried to break the balance.
"Darwin, help me find its energy core. It must have an energy core." Alpha noticed that Darwin had not left and immediately reminded him.
"Lord Alpha, I will guide you." Darwin raised his staff and fired a precise shot. The flesh of the glutton was hit by the fireball, emitting a foul smell and releasing a strong energy wave. Darwin's magic eye can accurately lock onto energy objects, and the core of the glutton is of course no problem.
Alpha felt a powerful energy emanating from the minced meat of the gluttonous beast. He immediately mobilized the power of thunder and lightning in his body, trying to absorb this energy.
"Hiss!" Gale suddenly issued a warning and quickly left the spot with Alpha in his arms. A black claw stretched out from the ground and turned directly towards Alpha, but a rocket suddenly shot out from the side and blew the claw away.
"That was a close call!" Alpha said with lingering fear. He turned his head and looked at Darwin next to him. Darwin patted his chest lightly and said, "Fortunately, I reacted in time, otherwise the adults might have been attacked by this monster."
"Thank you, Darwin." Alpha said gratefully. He knew that without Darwin's help, he might have been caught by that claw.
Alpha rushed to the place where Darwin pointed, and the surrounding pieces of meat quickly gathered together, obviously aware of the threat.
But Alpha cut through the defense of the piece of meat effortlessly and easily got the core.
The bodies of the remaining gluttonous beasts had been completely burned by the flames, leaving only a pool of foul-smelling mud.
Alpha and Darwin looked at the mud on the ground and couldn't help but sigh.
"This is the glutton. Once they start eating, they will become extremely crazy and even kill their own companions." Alpha said with emotion, recalling the glutton he had seen before.
"But now that the glutton is dead, we can move forward with peace of mind." Darwin said, raising his staff. A ray of light shot out from the staff, illuminating the road ahead.
"Are you all okay?" Alpha climbed up with difficulty. Darwin was fine, and Gus was struggling to show that he was not dead yet. The mutant Gale came closer and rubbed Alpha's body to show that he was fine too.
"Go back." Alpha climbed onto the horse with difficulty and walked towards Darwin.
"Darwin, look at this thing?" Alpha has not yet retracted his demon hand, fearing that the core explosion in his hand will be out of control.
But when Alpha opened his palm, the core turned into a ring and was worn on Alpha's middle finger. No matter how hard Alpha tried, he couldn't take it off.
"Darwin, I'm afraid that one day the devil will control my body." Alpha returned to his human form, but he was extremely frightened in his heart.
"It's the same for me. Since the last transformation, I haven't dared to use that power." Darwin, like Alpha, has used the power of darkness, the power of the devil. However, Darwin's devil power is only half of Alpha's, and it affects the whole body. He has no signs of consciousness yet.
"Go back! Try not to use this power in the future. Every time I use it, I feel it grows, and the speed of growth is simply beyond our imagination."
On their way back, Alpha and his two companions were warmly welcomed by Tasli and her companions. This victory was beyond human power, proving the strength of the three.
"Lord Alpha, we have occupied the Tagula stronghold, and there are still a lot of goods and bandit hostages inside. What should we do with these people?" asked Tasli.
"Give freedom to those we met during the day, make the bandits in the mountain village sign a contract and be demoted to coolies, release all the hostages, and leave the supplies behind." Alpha made this decision mainly because he took Liv's feelings into consideration.
"Okay, I've got it. Then Lord Alpha, what do we need these coolies for? There's a shortage of supplies here, and there's simply not much food in such a huge mountain village." Tasli asked in confusion.
"I want to build this place into a commercial and trade center. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack. If it is occupied by the enemy, the cost will be very high." Alpha is well aware of the interests involved.
"Tasli, you stay here to clean up the place, and contact Titanium City to send someone to manage it." Although Alpha had a plan, he still had no intention of acting rashly. After all, Firth was still here.
"Let Rowling's team move here and squeeze Fields' space. Let Phyllis send people to manage it and don't make a big fuss." Alpha finally decided to occupy this place.
"Okay, leave this to me." Tasli also wanted to calm down for a while. Her relationship with Alpha had become warmer recently, and they were only one step away.
"Remember, your mission is to develop trade and control this mountain road. When you have nothing to do, go over the mountain and open up a road. As for supplies, I will let Liv and the others carry out trade activities. As long as we can get through this period, everything will be fine." Alpha decided to meet this little business genius. After all, all this requires a stable business team, and Gullett Trading Company is the best link.
"Thanks to Captain Apollo for saving us, otherwise we would have been eaten clean by those robbers and bandits."
