Chapter 461: The Maze of the Sea Serpent XIII

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

As usual, the Eye of Destruction had arrived once again.

However, to Grimm, this was not the initiative taken by the Eye of Destruction to come to the maze of the sea serpent, but rather the appearance of the Eye of Destruction was due to an indescribably immense power of Serpentine light beam making a tear on the dim sky, just like how Grimm held on to the Phagocytic Shell.

Was this really the Eye of Destruction?

The Eye of Destruction was not in a form of a blood-red gigantic eye this time, but rather a huge white pearl emitting gentle rays, just like the moon in the sky.

Looking at this huge pearl, Grimm was not as fearful as before. Instead, he was experiencing an extraordinary temptation.

Awakened by the gentle rays of this huge pearl, one after another, the Phagocytic Shells opened up. Immediately, there were endless sea serpent's pearls emitting gentle white rays in the sky, just like little elves chasing after one another. How was this still the horrifying scene of little Eye of Destructions cruising the sky that Grimm once saw?

It was just that these sea serpent's pearls did not even discover Mount Serpentine, maybe because their senses had been interrupted or deceived so whichever sea serpent's pearls that came near Mount Serpentine would automatically turn and change their direction and continue chasing and playing.

That moment was the best moment for the creatures on Mount Serpentine to hunt for the sea serpent's pearls.

One after another, creatures in different forms came jumping onto the sea serpent's pearls which were near Mount Serpentine. Once they got hold of the pearls, they would return to Mount Serpentine and put them into the “mouth of Spring of Serpentine” to exchange for the Spring of Serpentine.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, a ferocious beast with lots of tentacles appeared on Mount Serpentine. Burning with the power of Serpentine, it dashed towards the crack of a gigantic Phagocytic Shell and attacked the Eye of Destruction which looked like the pure white moon in the sky.

Swoosh!

A light beam wiped out the beast but it also increased the power of Serpentine by a little, as if it was the beneficiary of this light beam attack.

“Oh, so, the world is like this…”

Grimm was talking to himself as he was shocked. He seemed to have gained a certain realization.

It was after one hundred and twenty-nine arrival days of the Eye of Destruction.

In Grimm's eyes, this strange creature's figure was like a carrot with two limbs. Its movements were slow and clumsy and it had layers of oily scales on its body. On each of its feet, there were three toes.

This ferocious beast had a large mouth that occupied the main part of its body. Its fangs grew closely together and spiral patterns occupied its whole mouth. It had devilish bad breath with sour liquid dripping from its mouth from time to time.

Bam! The sound of two hard rocks colliding was heard when the beast's long tongue made a surprise attack on the Darkness Pool and hit the rock on Mount Serpentine. The next moment, the tongue was back in the beast's mouth.

The pair of vicious eyes swept across the Darkness Pool and it seemed that no matter what had happened over there, the next moment would be a deadly blow by this beast.

Grimm walked in the Darkness Pool silently.

Grimm could easily handle creatures with powerful attacks.

Along with the Darkness Pool which Grimm had released gradually, this unknown creature with slow movements and poor defense had been surrounded completely by the Darkness Pool.

Like a ghost in the late night, a white spike stretched out from Darkness Pool.

Puff!

The spike pierced through the strange creature's tail and extended out from its mouth. A hoarse scream was heard from the monster as it kept writhing, trying to strike back at Grimm, but Grimm was hiding behind the monster, not giving him a single chance to do so.

Squeak…

The sour liquid with devilish bad breath flowed out of its body following the strike of the spike.

A moment later, this monster could struggle no more.

Grimm did not dare to stop nor remove the Level 2 Wild Instinct transformation, and so he flew towards Mount Serpentine and hid in a large Phagocytic Shell.

The monster on Grimm's spike was melting by itself, as if it was corroded by its own internal corrosive liquid.

It was after one thousand seven hundred and thirty-two arrival days of the Eye of Destruction.

Grimm and Johann were standing behind Grandalph, looking at the huge object in the sky of the sorcerer's cavern and they could not stay calm.

The sorcerer's cavern had been eyed on by other strong creatures of Mount Serpentine.

Unsure what form this monster appeared to be in the eyes of Grandalph and Johann, what Grimm saw was a big meatball with a radius of dozens of meters, covering the whole sky, flapping its obese wings. Its mouth was spitting out sticky little creatures which were more disgusting than the Mud Mephit.

These sticky little creatures were like evil wolves without skin, ferocious and cruel.

Whereas their mother was this monster floating in the sky. The power of Serpentine used was nearly dozens of times more than Shyann's, which was hundreds of thousands of power of Serpentine!

Such a dreadful monster!

In reality, although Grandalph was not a half Stigmata Sorcerer, but a strong monster of Mount Serpentine, her ability was not what any common Level-3 great sorcerer could match. At least it was true on Mount Serpentine where the power of Serpentine could be used.

At that moment, Grandalph would not give in. She flapped her bat wings in midair and the sticky liquid from her body began to gather on her hand, as if forming a long fork.

In the cavern was a group of incapable younglings, and they were the sorcerers who had lost their sorcery under Grimm's previous perception.

Grimm was not sure what he looked like in their eyes.

The ability of Mount Serpentine was truly terrifying.

Grimm was quite sure that although Mount Serpentine was not as scary as the Eye of Destruction or the King of Sea Serpent's Pearls, it was definitely a creature the had the same level as the Eternal Dominator or a certain appearance, as if restraining the lord of the sea serpent's pearls in his pursuit of certain objectives and growth.

In Grimm's eyes, the sky now was no longer a sky but rather it was an indescribably huge Phagocytic Shell or sea serpent shell.

Maybe the real maze of the sea serpent laid in there.

And Mount Serpentine?

Due to Grimm's presence in the mountain, he could not be sure what it was but at least he knew that someone with the level of the Eternal Dominator who owned many eyes existed. Each eye was the mini Eye of Destruction that Grimm had sensed previously.

The ground was not the hard ground as it was before but rather many revolving doors which moved continuously and it seemed like the real endless world was just behind these revolving doors.

Was Grimm in a transitional space between the maze of the sea serpent and the endless world or was it the ability formed by certain laws of Mount Serpentine?

To escape from this space, Grimm had to first completely regain true perception and then the moment when Mount Serpentine opened the maze of the sea serpent and when the lord of the sea serpent's pearls had appeared, that was the time to leave through the revolving doors of this interlayer.

However, even though Grimm had tried very hard, there was still a long way to go before he could completely regain true perception.

Yet now…

Grimm looked up into the sky at this obese gigantic object, and his heart was racing.

'If only I could hunt this fellow down, even though I could only get a part of the power of Serpentine, it would be sufficient for me to regain a huge part of my perception!'

Grimm did not know how many years had passed in the endless world or what the status of the battle in the Infernal Spirit World was.

As Grimm was making disorderly conjectures, to his surprise, Grandalph took the initiative to attack. It may either be the nature of the “mother” protecting its young that had caused this to happen or the strong fighting capability of this race, but in any case, Grandalph's strong fighting abilities had indeed astonished Grimm.

A half Stigmata Sorcerer, that was almost the standard of Grandalph. The powerful fighting capacity was enough to get serious attention from the World Lord.

Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom!

A large-scale war was in progress. Both Johann and Grimm joined the battle squadron to carry out auxiliary attacks.

Both of them might not be a threat to the “mother” but they could clean up the little sticky creatures being spit out from the mother's body.

The battle lasted for an arrival day of the Eye of Destruction.

The injured giant monster finally gave up on its intention to conquer the sorcerer's cavern. Howling, it flew towards the other direction of Mount Serpentine.

For Mount Serpentine, whether it was this giant monster or Grandalph, both were top creatures, but they were merely one of the several top creatures.

In this gigantic mountain, there were still creatures that were more dreadful than these two monsters.

Johann's body was strewn at the entrance of the sorcerer's cavern. He was killed by the monster's obese wings.

Grandalph held onto the fork while panting heavily under the support of the younglings. Her body emitted clouds of black smoke as if it was burning!

Grimm could once see the sorcerers' expressions of concern towards the Stigmata Sorcerer who was the support of the Mana Pool but now, in Grimm's eyes, they were a group of younglings surrounding their mother.

“I can't hold on any longer. Too much consumption of the source of life has brought me to the end of my life. The monster is too powerful.”

Grandalph's face was full of regrets.

Grimm's armour shattered and his weak body could only preserve Level 1 wild instinct transformation. While looking after the younglings of the foreign land and watching Grandalph turn into ashes, Grimm uttered, “You may leave in peace.”

“Um.”

“Poof”, Grandalph's body turned into ashes, leaving only a burning skull which was disappearing at a much slower speed.
