Chapter 311 you must be bold
All three of them stared intently at the nest of Devouring Demon Centipedes, especially Viola and Clive.? Their hearts were pounding, and their expressions were filled with terror.? Devouring Demon Centipedes had not yet emerged from the nest, but they felt an intense pressure.
Viola's body couldn't help but tremble, and David remained calm, his gaze fixed on the nest, which continued to emit sounds.? After several breaths, the nest suddenly revealed one of its three-fingered claws, resembling dried branches.? These three fingers had crescent-shaped spikes along their length, a single glance at which was enough to send shivers down one's spine.
Then came the second claw, the third, the fourth, and after fifty of its three-fingered claws had emerged, a monstrous creature with a menacing appearance, a triangular head filled with eyes, finally revealed itself.? It shook off the metallic debris from its body, its many eyes radiating anger.? Its hardened exoskeleton, just shed, gleamed like metal under the gloomy sunlight.? This was Devouring Demon Centipedes.
The Zerg's guardian, the pinnacle of Zerg strength, capable of annihilating any creature in the wasteland world within seconds.? Devouring Demon Centipedes slowly crawled out of the nest, displaying all one hundred of its three-fingered claws.? However, its body seemed somewhat deformed, and these limbs appeared particularly terrifying.? It was like a human hand with two fingers severed.? After crawling out of the nest, it immediately fixed its gaze on David and the others.
It flapped the blue wings on the sides of its exoskeleton, producing an even more ear-piercing noise than before.? Its hostile aura swept over them like a tidal wave, making the already oppressive air feel as heavy as steel.
Viola's body began to tremble uncontrollably, and she fell to the ground with her mouth spewing blood at just one glance from Devouring Demon Centipedes.? The Kui tribe members behind her weren't faring any better;? they fell to the ground, clutching their heads, as if Devouring Demon Centipedes' eyes could pierce their hearts with a single glance.
In the instant Viola collapsed, David quickly carried her and placed her under a large tree.? Clive was clutching the copper bell tightly, enveloped in a strange light radiating from it, which kept him from losing consciousness.? However, even with this protection, his face showed signs of pain.? David felt the same way, but his faint golden defensive layer shielded him from Devouring Demon Centipedes' oppressive aura.? Moreover, his level had reached twelve, allowing him to resist the creature's intimidation.
"Clive, are you okay?"? David asked as he looked at Clive's grim expression.
Hearing David's question, Clive wished he could strike the young man with the bell.? But he realized that the bell was his protective charm.? If it shattered, he would be in big trouble.
So he glared at David and said, "You've done quite a job, and you're asking if I'm okay?"? He was exasperated by this young troublemaker, but he had no choice.
"Now that? David had provoked this terrifying creature, David had to quickly think of a way to deal with it.? "? Listening to Clive's words, David chuckled and scratched his head.
"Don't worry;? I'll chop off its three-fingered claws and make you a cane.? That way, you can visit me and Emlyn in the wasteland world more often."? David smiled at him, which left Clive fuming.
"Great!? Whether they could escape from under Devouring Demon Centipedes' nose was one thing, but now he was thinking about taking its legs for a cane?"
Clive couldn't believe what he was witnessing.? David must be out of his mind.? There was no other explanation for provoking Devouring Demon Centipedes without reason and boldly talking about chopping off its legs.
However, as Clive observed Devouring Demon Centipedes, he noticed that its exoskeleton gleamed brightly, as if freshly polished.? He then glanced at a pile of metallic skin shed beside the nest.
Suddenly, it struck Clive.? "This Devouring Demon Centipedes just completed molting.? It's probably in a weakened state right now."? David turned his gaze toward the creature upon hearing Clive's words.
Indeed, Devouring Demon Centipedes appeared imposing on the surface, showing no signs of weakness.? However, David, with his heightened perception, noticed that it seemed to pause after each breath, as if adjusting to its new body.
David found this surprising.? In its current state, Devouring Demon Centipedes had already scared Viola unconscious with just a glance.? What would it be like at full strength?? David also understood why it had been watching them without attacking, seemingly trying to buy time to adapt to its new body.
This revelation excited David.? He wasn't one to take advantage of someone in a vulnerable state, but if the opponent was already in danger, he didn't mind making it worse.? He believed in the principle of striking when the iron was hot.
Even if Devouring Demon Centipedes were at its peak, David wouldn't back down.? Today, he was determined to show the Zerg a lesson they wouldn't forget.
"Clive, rest here for a while.? I'll go meet this guy," David said as he approached Devouring Demon Centipedes.
Seeing this, Clive urgently wanted to stop him.? Unfortunately, he had to hold the bell with both hands;? otherwise, the protective aura would disappear.? So he shouted anxiously at David's back, "Don't think you can beat it just because it's not in the right state now!? While it hasn't initiated an attack yet, let's find a way to get out of here!? When it fully recovers, none of us can escape!"
Clive practically screamed at David's retreating figure.? He knew very well the strength of Devouring Demon Centipedes.? Even in its current state, killing an eleven-level super beast was a breeze for it.? He didn't want David to take this risk.? In his eyes, such behavior was undoubtedly jumping into the abyss of death.
Clive's words made David hesitate for a moment.? It was clear that Clive was concerned about his safety.? He had a point;? provoking Devouring Demon Centipedes at this moment was extremely risky.
However, David turned around, pondered for a moment, and then looked at Clive with a serious expression.? "As a man, you must be bold!" he declared before continuing toward Devouring Demon Centipedes.
