Chapter 300

Under Rudolf's guidance, they moved forward along the underground river.

After walking for about ten minutes, a visible glimmer appeared in the previously dark underground cave.

This glimmer was emitted by some kind of moss.

The light of a single plant was not great, but after gathering to a certain quantity, the brightness was quite considerable.

And the Miri tribe was covered by this glowing moss, dispelling the thick, lingering darkness in the cave.

From afar, Chu Danqing saw an old Miri priest in the center of the tribe chanting something loudly.

Standing beside the old Miri priest was a Miri person who was about 1.2 meters tall but had explosive muscles all over.

It was wearing rough armor and holding an exaggerated stone hammer.

Chu Danqing's gaze was not on the Miri priest or the Miri leader, but on the statue enshrined in the center of the tribe.

The statue looked like an elephant-headed man with closed eyes; it was impossible to distinguish what kind of stone it was made of.

"William, with so many Miri people, how do you plan to save them?" Rudolf asked nervously.

Compared to Chu Danqing, his gaze fell on the Miri people who were worshipping because of the ritual.

There were no fewer than a hundred of them.

This number made his scalp tingle; if they really swarmed them, he knew he was dead for sure.

Chu Danqing was thinking about how to deal with them.

According to his calculations, with Da Gu's "Sorrowful Returning Wind," there was a very high probability of instantly killing the old Miri priest or the Miri leader, and then wiping out all the Miri people with area-of-effect damage.

But he could only kill one of these two Miri people; the rest would have to be handled by the Pure Yang Heavenly General.

As for the female lawyers, there was no need to worry about them because they were on a high platform; as long as the range was controlled, they wouldn't be affected.

Summon Guo Ming directly?

This idea was immediately rejected by him.

The Paradise did provide reimbursement, but that elephant-headed statue gave him an ominous premonition.

Especially since the white-furred monster had warned him to be careful of elephants.

This was no longer just an elephant; it was an elephant head plus a statue.

So there was no doubt that the problem lay with this statue.

It was highly likely related to a god.

His goal was not to destroy the entire Miri tribe, but to save people, so there was a lot of room for maneuver.

"Rudolf, you leave this cave first, wait for me..." Chu Danqing knew that Rudolf staying here was a burden; since he had already led the way, there was no need for him to follow.

Just wait outside the cave.

But before Chu Danqing could finish, Rudolf said: "Hey, William, I'm not a coward."

These words sounded very confident, but Chu Danqing saw at a glance that the reason the other party wouldn't leave was that he didn't dare to leave alone.

"Alright, then hide yourself well; it might be very chaotic next," Chu Danqing said.

"No problem, I will absolutely not get in your way, William," Rudolf said, immediately moving to find a place to hide.

Although it might not be able to fool the Miri people, it could at least provide some peace of mind.

Da Gu began to chant, the sound drifting slowly, attracting the attention of the old Miri priest and the Miri leader.

The old Miri priest just took a look and continued the ritual, while the Miri leader showed a ferocious grin on its face, dragging its stone hammer toward Chu Danqing.

"Yi!" The immature voice was filled with cruelty; the Miri leader raised the big hammer and jumped high, smashing it toward Chu Danqing.

Seeing this, Da Bao was about to fight, but was pulled back by the Pure Yang Heavenly General.

Boom!!!

A huge sound appeared, accompanied by a massive wave.

The Pure Yang Heavenly General blocked the Miri leader's stone hammer with a heavy shield, and at the same time, his figure was pushed back by nearly a dozen centimeters due to the immense force, leaving a scratch on the ground.

With the point of impact as the center, dense spiderweb cracks appeared on the heavy shield.

Golden light accompanied the immense force; the heavy sword held in the Pure Yang Heavenly General's right hand slashed mercilessly toward the Miri leader's head.

At this moment, the Miri leader's old strength was gone and new strength had not yet been born, so it was struck solidly on the spot.

However, the sharpness of the heavy sword did not completely sever the Miri leader's neck; instead, it was stuck by its spine.

At this time, the Miri leader also landed, regaining a point of leverage to exert force.

It didn't care that its neck was still stuck with the heavy sword and directly jumped on one foot, kicking the Pure Yang Heavenly General's heavy shield.

With this kick, not only was the Pure Yang Heavenly General's heavy shield kicked to pieces, but it also used this reaction force to flip itself out.

This scene stunned Chu Danqing, because the other party's behavior was equivalent to letting the heavy sword slash its neck again.

And because there was no heavy sword blocking it, when the Miri leader landed, a large amount of blood sprayed from the broken neck, which looked extremely gruesome.

But even so, the other party did not die, and a large amount of granulation tissue was wriggling and regenerating at the broken part.

The speed was not fast; according to Chu Danqing's estimate, it would take about a day to fully recover.

More importantly, this injury did not affect the Miri leader's combat power at all.

"You are the most powerful human knight I have ever seen," the Miri leader spoke, using fluent Federal language.

And Rudolf, who was hiding, also heard this and poked his head out to look.

He was mainly attracted by the word "knight" mentioned by the Miri leader.

Compared to the negative connotation of "sorcerer" in the Golden Eagle Federation, "knight" was a completely positive identity.

Although he was suspicious, he didn't think too much, only feeling that a noble was a noble; with exorcism spells and knight protection, no wonder he could afford such a large sum of money to hire them.

After taking a look, he saw the Miri leader's appearance again and couldn't help but shrink his head back.

The Pure Yang Heavenly General remained silent, threw away the broken heavy shield, and then held the sword with both hands.

Without a word, he launched an offensive.

The Miri leader didn't care that the Pure Yang Heavenly General didn't answer and smashed over with the stone hammer.

The battle between the two sides broke out again, and it changed from one attacking and one defending to both sides attacking, causing the affected area to expand several times over.

Chu Danqing had to temporarily avoid the edge.

But with the Pure Yang Heavenly General's attacks, various percentage effects that required being hit or attacking began to grow, and attack and attack speed also began to further increase.

And it would trigger the battle cry of the Elf Princess Ring, allowing the Pure Yang Heavenly General to enter a 10-second berserk state, letting the Pure Yang Heavenly General gain the upper hand and suppress the Miri leader.

Until Da Gu's chanting ended, and the "Sorrowful Returning Wind" pointed directly at the old Miri priest.

At this moment, the Miri leader fighting the Pure Yang Heavenly General had a drastic change in expression; although it didn't know what the "Sorrowful Returning Wind" was, it sensed the terrible power contained within it.

According to the trajectory prediction, it would inevitably hit the old Miri priest.

With the old Miri priest's physique, even if it didn't die on the spot, it wouldn't live long due to serious injuries.

It wanted to get away, but it was at a disadvantage.

If it had the advantage, getting away would naturally not be a problem, but unfortunately, at a disadvantage, the Pure Yang Heavenly General stepped forward and immediately dragged it back.

The Miri leader could only watch helplessly as the "Sorrowful Returning Wind" crossed its obstruction, headed toward the center of the tribe, and finally landed on the old Miri priest.

"You despicable human!!!" The Miri leader turned around and cursed at Chu Danqing.

Chu Danqing simply ignored the other party; his gaze was fixed on the old Miri priest.

The "Sorrowful Returning Wind" erupted, the old Miri priest's body shattered instantly, and a large amount of blood splashed out.

But it still hadn't died; tenacious vitality supported its life.

The area-of-effect attack took effect, and all the Miri people who were worshipping around were included in it.

The worshipping Miri people were different from the Miri people who had chased the legal team before; the group that chased them seemed to be warriors, while this group was civilians.

So they were even worse in strength and died cleanly on the spot.

Seeing this scene, the Miri leader was stunned for a moment; the death of its clansmen was too much of a shock to it.

It might be stunned, but the Pure Yang Heavenly General wouldn't care about its thoughts; the heavy sword slashed down toward the other party's forehead without hesitation.

This sword failed to split it in two, but instead got stuck in the skull and couldn't advance an inch.

Then, the "Sorrowful Returning Wind" combo effect was triggered, and the second round of single-target + area-of-effect damage erupted again.

The old Miri priest, who was already on its last legs, died on the spot.

Chu Danqing was not surprised by the wiping out of the entire Miri tribe; what he really feared was the elephant-headed statue.

But the situation now was that even though he had wiped out the entire Miri tribe, the other party had no reaction at all, which was a bit strange.

Fortunately, the other party didn't react, but Chu Danqing had a plan long ago.

Da Bao, who had been idle, had already received Chu Danqing's instructions after the "Sorrowful Returning Wind" was launched; he rushed to the high platform at the first opportunity and rescued the three female lawyers.

"Run!" Seeing this, Chu Danqing turned and ran decisively.

Rudolf, who was hiding on the side, poked his head out; although he didn't understand why Chu Danqing wanted to run, he was a smart man and knew he shouldn't ask why at this time, just follow suit.

Da Bao quickly returned, scooped up Chu Danqing and Rudolf, and headed toward the cave entrance without looking back.

"Great Feeder, your humble creation will once again offer flesh and blood."

"I beg you to grant me powerful strength to punish the despicable human who destroyed the sacrifice!!!" The Miri leader's hand pressed against the heavy sword, and while saying this, it forcibly pulled the heavy sword out.

As it spoke, its rough armor shattered, exposing a huge spiral-shaped wound on its chest.

The wound even allowed one to see the beating organs inside its body with the naked eye.

Bang!

The Pure Yang Heavenly General's heavy sword was actually crushed inch by inch by the Miri leader.

Its strength had undergone a earth-shaking change, completely different from before.

And the elephant-headed statue had also quietly opened its eyes at some point.
