Chapter 179: Eve Of Extermination, A Giant God Descended!
“Zhong Qingshu, which floor are you on? Have you seen my sister?”
The turmoil inside the castle continued. After the bombardment of the castle, the leaders on the upper floors were lost. All the kobolds on the lower floors seemed frantic, running around in the castle like headless chickens.
Even one of the usually calm kobold mages dropped its staff at this time, panicking, and wanted to escape through the small side door.
As soon as he entered the door, Su Mo ran into a kobold squad, but the squad did not realize that Su Mo had already rushed in. They still seemed to have received an order and swarmed to a single location.
“Something’s wrong! Be careful!”
Hearing Zhong Qingshu’s flustered voice in his ears, before Su Mo could react, a shockwave capable of overturning the earth exploded in the distance.
Even under the bombardment of the explosives previously, the castle remained unusually strong. However, this time, it was split into two by the impact.
From the center of the castle, the ground broke apart, and the castle that had no foundation in the first place began to collapse crazily from top to bottom.
The huge pillar that supported the upper layers of the castle was also collapsing, and the floor was as vulnerable as a piece of paper.
Unguarded, a piece of flying rock slammed into Su Mo’s back fiercely and sent him flying away like a sharp arrow.
“This is…”
Su Mo fell to the ground, and the sharp pain behind him made his consciousness a little fuzzy.
Forcibly recollecting himself, Su Mo took out the psychic energy water out of the storage space to drink. Su Mo quickly switched to the live broadcast perspective to observe what was happening outside.
The screen flashed, and the broadcast host’s perspective automatically emerged. Amidst the gray and black, Su Mo’s expression was full of shock.
Part of the barrels’ position had completely disappeared at this time, and even the upper layer of snow had disappeared.
It was replaced by a huge bottomless pit, with the diameter of the pit being seventy or eighty meters long, which was extremely terrifying.
In the pit, there were still little wisps of blue flame present. It was akin to a punishment from hell, and everyone who saw it could feel the terrifying power behind it!
However, it was not this that shocked Su Mo, but…
It was the owner who released this huge fireball, and its purpose.
“The range of the fireball also encompassed your castle. Isn’t this akin to killing the enemy by self-destructing?”
He did not know what materials the castle was constructed with, and what principles were used in the process but, at this time, while half of the building was rapidly crumbling, the other interior half still stood abnormally strong.
Through the void, Su Mo once again saw the white-robed kobold standing at the top of the castle, and the traces of black powder that had just been used…
Seemingly sensing Su Mo’s gaze, the white-robed kobold looked over again, its mouth pulled up in a sneer and mocking gaze, continuing to wave the staff in its hand.
This time the fireball was much more normal-looking; other than there being an illusory blue silk thread floating inside, there was not much difference between it and those casted by ordinary mages.
In addition, the white-robed kobold’s target was neither the team that was blown up outside the castle, or Su Mo who was still on the first floor, or even Zhong Qingshu who had already rushed to the fourth floor either.
Its target turned out to be…
The remaining kobolds!
“Be careful, the one in the white robe is crazy! He is bombarding his own people like a madman!”
Such a weird scene did not make Su Mo feel relaxed, but the palpitations that had previously disappeared resurfaced instead.
What was the white-robed kobold doing?
Why was it doing this?
Team after team of kobolds were assembled by the captain and then killed by the white-robed kobold above them with a fireball.
In less than a minute, these swooping fireballs caused higher casualties than bombardment of explosives and hailstorm of bullets.
The kobolds who had previously been escaping frantically, seemed to have received some kind of summons, and voluntarily gathered together to be devoured by the burning fireballs.
“Is this to prevent me from obtaining the treasure chests? Or is there some other ulterior motive?”
Feeling the rapid beating of his heart, and watching groups of kobolds dying, Su Mo yelled and pushed the debris off his body. He quickly rushed up the stairs that had not collapsed yet.
Treasure chests? Unimportant!
Kobolds? Even more insignificant!
The purpose of this trip was to rescue Su Chan. Even if the kobolds died, they would not have the slightest impact on this vast wasteland.
His back was hurting and the combat uniform was damaged. While climbing the stairs, Su Mo quickly spent 40 points to repair the uniform.
Concealed by the rising dust, a green light flashed momentarily in the dark. When Su Mo appeared in sight again, his uniform was intact again.
“Zhong Qingshu, how are you? Are you okay?”
As Su Mo called, an intermittent voice replied, “Your …sister, not in the castle…”
“Quick! Hurry up and stop the white-robed kobold from continuing to slaughter the kobolds. Hurry up! Otherwise, we will all die!”
After finishing speaking, Zhong Qingshu’s voice dropped off again and turned into static.
At the same time, in his field of vision, two rooms covered by the golden light on the fourth floor were shattered. Zhong Qingshu’s body shot out from the room and hit the snow in the distance. It was unknown whether she was dead or alive.
Su Chan was not in the castle?
What did Zhong Qingshu see?
What was the white-robed kobold doing?
These three questions shrouded Su Mo’s heart like a pair of black hands covering the sky.
Su Mo looked toward the white-robed kobold who was still slaughtering the kobold squads from the fifth floor. After thinking about it, Su Mo’s pace did not slow down, but sped up instead.
It seemed that something had gone terribly wrong.
After receiving Zhong Qingshu’s reminder, he temporarily let go of his worries about his sister. After taking a look and seeing Su Chan’s avatar still lit up, Su Mo quickly rushed up to the fourth floor, picked up his rifle, and shot at the white-robed kobold.
Unfortunately, when the bullet hit the white-robed kobold, a faint golden light suddenly arose, blocking the bullet.
At the same time, when the white-robed kobold noticed Su Mo’s figure, its movements did not slow down. Instead, it increased the speed of casting fireballs to destroy the remaining kobolds.
“My goodness, it’s addicted to killing his own kind!”
Seeing that a single bullet failed to penetrate the white-robed kobold’s wall of light, Su Mo did not hesitate and went straight to the fifth floor.
There were not many kobolds left down below. After being on the receiving end of attacks from both sides, they were already on the verge of extinction.
While Su Mo was climbing the stairs, the white-robed kobold released two more fireballs, ending the lives of all the kobolds except itself. After that, it seemed to have run out of energy and became weakened.
Three hours ago, this was a high-class castle brimming with bright lights and unusual warmth. It was the best shelter in everyone’s mind.
Three hours later, it had turned into hell on earth with corpses littering the ground, stumps and shreds of body parts everywhere, and a scarlet river flowing with the blood of the kobolds.
As for the two instigators who caused all this, by the time Su Mo reached the fifth floor, he could no longer stop the launch of the final fireball.
In Su Mo’s vision, the white-robed kobold sat down paralyzed and, at the same time, a relaxed smile was etched onto its mouth.
“The strongest of mankind! You are here! Hahahaha!”
“I welcome you to witness the arrival of the great Dog God, and witness the great Boswell worship and summon the Dog God!”
The white-robed kobold spat out these words to Su Mo upon his arrival on the fifth floor with a triumphant expression.
It was as if, in this battle, all the people who died down below were humans instead.
“I’m here now. Do you want to repeat yourself? Say that you won again, that you are great, and I made a mistake?”
“By the way, do you want to add on another sentence? Perhaps that my actions are stupid and that only you truly understand everything?”
“You also want to say that the Dog God can control this land after arriving, right?”
Seeing the appearance of the white-robed kobold, Su Mo tried to delay for time and quickly scanned the fifth floor, checking whether there were captured human beings.
In the half-broken castle, there were only three rooms, as well as the huge viewing platform, remaining.
At this time, the exhausted white-robed kobold could not maintain the golden light film, and Su Mo tried to use the broadcast host’s perspective to observe the surroundings.
Sure enough, Su Chan was not in the castle.
After taking out the pointer, the arrow was still stubbornly pointed north, not exhibiting any sign of change.
“Hahaha, your human forces, wanting to win the spoils of defeating us, the heavenly dog clan, is simply wishful thinking.”
“In this battle, not only did you not gain anything, but you also lost a few mages among your race! I guess you must regret everything now.”
The white-robed kobold’s tone was very relaxed as it pointed toward the place where the oil barrels were buried in the distance with the staff in its hand.
In its eyes, Su Mo saw the pride and, in its tone, Su Mo heard the happiness.
“What mages are you blabbering on about? Where is my sister? Bastard!”
Su Mo took out the fine iron electric spear, stomped on the ground, and instantly reached the white-robed kobold. He thrust the spear into its thigh.
“Ah!”
“Ahhhhhhh!”
The spear instantaneously punctured the white-robed kobold’s thigh, and a trace of extreme pain was displayed on Boswell’s distorted face.
Compared to other kobolds, the white-robed kobold was not strong. It was just that he could speak, release big fireballs, and last a little longer…
He was still a weak being.
“What sister, you are all going to die, ahhhhhhhh!”
“Despicable intruder, ah!”
Seeing that the kobold, who was still unrepentant even though he was being oppressed, Su Mo drew out his spear and thrust it on the other thigh again.
“Hahahaha, kill, kill, kill me!”
“Together we will witness the arrival of the Heavenly Dog God!”
Both the legs of the white-robed kobold were marked with large holes, from which black blood gushed out of the wounds.
The intense pain did not stop Boswell from speaking. On the contrary, he became even crazier.
Seeing the crazy expression on the white-robed kobold’s face, Su Mo was startled.
There was such a warrior who was not afraid of death?
Without waiting for Su Mo to continue his execution, from beneath the half-collapsed castle, a golden magic circle, similar to those seen in movies and TV series, suddenly arose.
At the same time, all the kobold corpses were sucked in by the magic circle in an instant, and the blood-stained snow on the ground was no exception.
The greedy magic circle was like a visitor from hell, sucking in the flesh and blood of creatures.
After the last trace of kobold flesh and blood disappeared, the magic circle began to burst forth with a violent light and shattered into pieces.
“Dog God, the Heavenly Dog God is coming!”
“Atonement, the last redemption belongs to our Heavenly Dog clan! No one can steal it, hahahaha!”
“I, Boswell, am about to ascend into the kingdom of the Heavenly Dog God. I will be immortal and eternal!”
The large amount of blood loss caused the white-robed kobold’s consciousness to become blurred but, as the magic circle shattered, the two large holes pierced by Su Mo stopped bleeding and began to recover rapidly.
The golden lights began to rush into the air spontaneously. These golden lights were just like that time the secret trading realm opened, directly breaking through the thick clouds, halting the strong wind, and driving away the snowflakes.
A shallow rift slowly split open in mid-air, before beginning to expand rapidly.
It was daybreak…
It was not the sun that was coming out but, in the crack, an illusory dog’s head exuding golden light poked its way out, occupying half of the sky like a giant god, looking down at the ground from a distance!
