Broad World

Henry and his party came to a metal gate, and just as he was about to go up to check how to open it, suddenly a blue light flashed on the door, and soon a transparent figure appeared on the spot. He was wearing a long robe and a strange hat on his head. This guy looked at everyone with puzzled eyes, and then walked around with his head down. It took a while before the strange figure stopped.

"Who are you and why did you come to this underground research base? No, these are not the most important things. Tell me right now, is Archmage Iolum back?"

Henry shook his head. He realized that this guy was just the remaining soul of an arcanist, and his memory and way of thinking were still at the end of Netheril.

"Hello, dear Arcanist. Thousands of years have passed, and the era of Netheril has passed. Grand Arcanist Karthus personally used a twelfth-level spell to steal the power of the Goddess of Magic. Because he couldn't control the divine power, the devil almost collapsed. Almost all the floating cities fell from the sky and turned into ruins."

The transparent figure was stunned when he heard Henry's words, and then he began to yell at the bottom of his lungs, desperately grabbing the non-existent hair, and finally lay down on the ground and cried bitterly. Everyone stood and watched silently. They felt that this person was very pitiful. He had been asleep for thousands of years, and the first thing he knew when he woke up was the destruction of his hometown.

The guy cried for a long time before he stopped, and he stood up and wiped away his translucent tears.

"Although it's hard to accept, thank you for bringing this news to me." As he spoke, he suddenly noticed a dozen synthetic monsters standing beside him. "Oh! God! You woke up these guys, don't you want to enter the gate behind me to fight the giant beast?"

"We don't want to either. But one of our companions was captured by the Bird Demon. If we want to save her, we have to go through this gate." Vaughan explained with a wry smile.

The transparent figure shook his head. "With your strength, it is impossible to defeat the synthesized monster in our final experiment. Because it has been endowed with too many spell-like abilities, the most important of which is that when it was synthesized, someone used the flesh and blood of the Tarasque monster in a whimsical way. These things endow it with super regeneration ability. Even if it is temporarily killed, it will not be long before it can be resurrected."

Zuwartha's eyes widened in surprise. "You mean, this monster has the power of a Tarasque monster! Are you crazy? I heard that almost nothing can kill it, even if it is dissociated or other instant death spells, it can be reborn within a certain period of time."

"Our original intention was to create a controllable war behemoth that could never be destroyed to defend our homeland. But we didn't expect an accident at the end of the synthesis. When the controller was half embedded, this guy woke up suddenly, and it launched an attack on everyone here without hesitation. In the end, except for me who escaped, everyone else died." After he finished speaking, he lowered his head with a regretful expression on his face.

Henry frowned, what the arcanist said was obviously a long time ago. Ever since the invention of wishing, the Tarasques were theoretically perfectly slayable. And in his current scroll box, there happened to be such a ninth-level spell scroll.

"Can you tell us roughly, what kind of spell-like abilities does this guy have?"

The Arcanist bowed his head in thought for a moment. "Too many. It has beholder-like eyes and can emit various rays. A dozen mouths can emit different types of energy at the same time, and its huge body can flash at will within a certain range. There is also an ability at the end. As long as it is a person or creature that is swallowed, it has a certain chance to obtain an ability of the creature. Those harpies and Abe bees. It is the summoning ability obtained after eating one of my friends."

Henry sighed when he heard it, any one ability is enough to cause headaches, let alone adding them together. "Now talk about its weaknesses, but don't tell me you made a perfect monster."

The Arcanist smiled wryly and shook his head. "Even the gods will fall in this world. There will be nothing perfect there. When we installed the control device, we opened a hole in its head. Although it has not been placed in the designated position, you can still use the controller to cause some interference. The premise is that your willpower is strong enough, otherwise you may become an idiot. In addition, the control device can be detonated. If you are not sure, it is best not to use it."

"Why can't it be easily detonated? Didn't this thing fail to install?" Vaughan asked suspiciously.

The Arcanist pointed to the door behind him. "Do you know why I was able to seal it inside for so many years? It's not that this guy doesn't have enough strength to rush out, but the energy generated by the controller keeps him in a coma state. If the control device is blown up, this berserk behemoth can be rushed out in less than a month. So I suggest you go back, no one can defeat it except the Grand Arcanist."

Henry was almost amused by this arrogant arcanist. "Please open the folding door. Since we have arrived here, we must rescue the companions inside. I swear here that if I am not absolutely sure to kill it, I will never detonate the control device."

"Since you insist on doing this, I'm not going to stop you. But I told you in advance that once you enter this gate, there is no turning back. Unless the giant beast inside dies, the gate will not be opened again." The arcanist warned everyone solemnly.

Henry smiled and nodded. "Please rest assured, if we are not certain, we will not choose to take risks."

The Arcanist sighed, he thought it was impossible for these people to come out alive. "Okay, I will unseal the seal for you now. When you go in, move faster and try not to make any noise." After speaking, he began to chant a spell towards the door, and the magic patterns on the door kept changing, and soon there was a "click".

At this moment, there was a huge roar from inside the door, and then the whole earth began to vibrate slightly. Vaughn and Zuwosa collided unsteadily, Henry squatted down quickly and waited for the vibration to pass. After a few seconds, everything returned to normal, as if everything just now was an illusion of everyone.

The Arcanist shouted angrily, "No! This damned guy has gone mad. If you want to go in, you'd better go in now, or I'll seal this place up again soon." He opened the door a little.

Henry immediately rushed in with his companions and a dozen monsters. When everyone passed through the gap in the door, the door at the back was immediately closed and locked firmly. Soon they saw the behemoth in a state of rage in the distance, and this guy was massacring the beemen and bird demons who wanted to appease it.

Just when Henry was about to take a group of people to hide first, the giant beast suddenly disappeared in place, and then suddenly appeared directly in front of everyone. It stared at these uninvited guests with huge eyes, and a dozen mouths were drooling non-stop. The half-orc warrior gripped the huge sword with both hands, and beads of sweat soon appeared on his forehead. Being stared at by such a giant beast all the time, everyone felt a sense of oppression.

Henry backed away slowly and carefully, trying to create a relatively safe distance. Suddenly Amy's voice rang in his ears. "Master, Bamberke and I have already escaped, please don't come looking for us, there is a terrifying monster here."

"It's too late. The monster you mentioned is right in front of me. Its eyes are staring at everyone. I'm afraid we will be attacked if we move a little bit." Henry also used a communication technique to tell the girl.

Amy, who was hiding in the cave, was startled when she heard it. She immediately ran to the entrance of the cave and looked down, and she saw that her companion was confronting the giant beast. "Ban Burke, you hide here for a while, I want to attract that monster's attention and buy them some time to prepare."

"I'm relatively small, and I'm very flexible. Leave this kind of thing to me." As he spoke, the parrot jumped out of the hole, spread its wings and flew straight towards the giant beast. Amy looked at Ban Burke's back and smiled. She didn't expect the guy who usually looks the most unreliable to be so brave at such a critical moment.

Henry quickly discovered the black spot swooping down in mid-air. When it was about to fall to the ground, it opened its wings and made a gliding motion. Then, the moment it passed in front of the giant beast, it released a colorful jet. The cone-shaped attack range almost included all the eyes, and the behemoth lost its eyesight in an instant.

Immediately after Bamberk succeeded in the sneak attack, he flew to a high place. Henry gave the monsters under his control an attack order, and at the same time gave himself protection spells. Vaughn rushed over with a two-handed giant sword and slashed wildly at one leg. For a moment, flesh and blood splattered. The pain made the giant beast immediately realize that it was being attacked, and it opened more than a dozen bloody mouths to spit out.

Zuwosa, who was shooting arrows at the side, saw this movement and reminded loudly: "Get out of the way! It seems to use energy spit!"

After hearing this, the half-orc warrior realized that it was too late to retreat. He used the magic on his boots to quickly run towards the belly of the giant beast. The moment it passed through the jaw, flames, frost, acid, lightning, negative energy, positive energy, sound waves and other energies spewed out from more than a dozen mouths. Several slow-moving monsters disappeared without a trace. . )
