Chapter 704 Monster Beto
monster!
With this shared belief, the creature before them could no longer be called human. As it devoured the creature frantically, the tumor on Beto's head swelled up and grew larger and larger, now at least three or five times the size of the original Beto.
Boom! ! !
With a soft thud, the dual-wielding assassin, who had long been drained of his life force, was casually tossed to the ground. He was like a brittle biscuit, crumbling to pieces with the slightest touch.
This scene made the people around tense again, but they had no time to pray for their dead comrades, after all, there was a real monster standing in front of them.
Boom!Boom!Boom!
Like a beating heart, after absorbing enough life force, the tumor swelled and contracted, sometimes large, sometimes small, like a balloon filled with air, as if it would burst at any moment...
Bang! ! ! ! !
As expected, accompanied by a loud bang, blood blossomed, and a large amount of thick green liquid spurted out, spraying out in all directions.
"Get away!!!"
As the only agile professional in the team at this moment, the young archer who had launched the sneak attack reacted the fastest. He shouted and quickly hid behind a tree.
Given the current situation, that green sap is definitely not a good thing. For safety's sake, it's best not to touch it.
With the archer's warning, the Lion and the other two quickly reacted, retreating with expressions of terror, successfully avoiding the attack range of the sap.
After dodging the attack, the group quickly looked at the objects stained with the liquid.
Zhi! ! !
With a corrosive sound, everything that came into contact with the sap—be it boulders, trees, or soil—was corroded to some extent, like tiny insects gnawing holes in the objects.
terrible!
Although their gear was decent, they didn't want to get stuck to this thing. Who knew if it would drill holes in their gear if it hit them a few more times?
Seeing this, everyone realized how terrifying the monster Beto was, so they quickly turned their attention back to Beto to see what the monster would do next.
However, in the blink of an eye, they were stunned again, because Beto had changed his appearance once more after the explosion.
Beto originally wore a light to medium armor, which basically covered his entire body, even the joints were protected. Although the overall thickness and defense were not as good as real heavy armor, it was slightly better in terms of flexibility.
Of course, the main reason is that heavy armor is too expensive. With that money, it's better to polish the armor and engrave some runes.
Of course, due to the previous battle, the armor was now somewhat damaged, and some of the skin was exposed, which is why everyone was able to get a glimpse of Beto's full appearance.
The chopped-down parts revealed numerous growths of flesh, much like the tumors on Beto's head. These growths swelled and seeped from the gaps in the armor, sometimes appearing blood-red, sometimes green and poisonous, like a fungal carpet, spreading and enveloping the entire body from the damaged areas.
To put it simply, this armor can no longer be described as armor; it's more like a bio-armor. The armor seems to have fused with flesh and blood, transforming into the flesh and blood itself.
The impact of this scene was considerable. The Three-Headed Lion Mercenary Group had seen many terrifying monsters in all the time they had been established, but this was the first time they had ever seen one that looked like this.
Not to mention his even more terrifying head, though whether it could even be described as a head was uncertain to everyone.
After the tumor burst open, what emerged from Beto's neck was a huge, rectangular or oval-shaped, eyeless worm.
As described, it is an eyeless creature whose entire body is made of flesh and blood, with two tentacles on its head that are of unknown origin, perhaps for sensing.
On the front side, in what could be described as the abdomen or the face, there were about six black horns, distributed on both sides like teeth, which looked quite terrifying.
As mentioned before, it's like a fleshy worm stuck vertically in Beto's neck, which, together with the bio-armor on his body, makes up the monstrous scene before us.
"This...this...."
Upon seeing this scene, one of the remaining four burly men could barely speak. He was certainly not a coward, but seeing this, he still couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
"Should we..."
The other burly man felt great sympathy and understanding upon seeing this scene. He looked at the monster in front of him, then at his own boss, and couldn't help but feel the urge to retreat.
However, the Lion King was calmer than they had imagined. When he saw the terrifying monster, his eyes showed no sign of retreat or fear, but rather a hint of brutality and a predatory look.
Indeed, he was, after all, a person with a somewhat twisted personality. Apart from being somewhat shocked by Beto's previous changes, he was no longer so afraid now that Beto had stabilized. He simply thought that Beto had broken through and become a monster with a somewhat terrifying appearance.
This ruthless character wasn't afraid of monsters, so he had no intention of retreating. Instead, after stabilizing the situation, he gave an order for his men to attack.
Even if the subordinates were unwilling, they had no choice but to adopt a fighting stance, since they dared not disobey their boss's orders.
The two burly men were both combatants, front-line warriors wielding shields in their left hands and weapons in their right, the only difference being that one carried a battle axe and the other a flail.
After confirming the order, the two quickly began to advance. In truth, neither of them were cowards; it was just that the appearance of the monster Beto earlier had given them a strange sense of physical unease, which made them want to retreat.
Once the fight actually begins, their combat prowess quickly dispels their fear. Moreover, they are all combat professionals, and before the fight, each of them has imbued themselves with a layer of fighting spirit, greatly boosting their morale. As long as no unexpected situation arises, they will never think of retreating once the fight starts.
As they pressed forward, archers in the distance began to stand on higher ground and aim at the monster Beto.
For these battle-hardened mercenaries, the death of a teammate may affect their formation and strategy, but it will not affect their teamwork.
Given their level of cooperation, hunting down Beto, who has turned into a monster, shouldn't be too difficult.
With this thought in mind, everyone felt relieved...
