Green Monster Epic

Chapter 586 This…

When Allen reopened his eyes, the surrounding environment was completely different.

Suddenly transitioning from a life-and-death battle to a peaceful scene, where he was quietly lying on a lush green meadow, Allen was somewhat surprised.

However, he quickly reacted, swiftly rolling and standing up, cautiously observing his surroundings, and suddenly discovered a sleeping dragon lying beside him.

He slapped his cheeks hard a few times, the stinging sensation stimulating his brain.

It turned out that everything before was just a dream, Allen chuckled self-deprecatingly.

However, he immediately felt a hint of doubt.

He had never experienced such a realistic dream, even though he often had absurd dreams of different worlds.

The battle with the Saint-level warlock Da Vinci, being blasted by his spells, and the endless flames burning his body, engulfing him in the scene, now recalling it, Allen didn't feel any illusion.

In the final desperate moment, his body was torn apart and burned to ashes, his desperate and calm state of mind still made Allen feel palpitations.

Of course, Allen was also secretly grateful that it was a dream, otherwise he would have truly died and his soul would have been extinguished, unable to experience the beauty of life again, let alone see the future development of the tribe.

Mentally scanning his surroundings, confirming that there was no danger, Allen finally had time to calm his still agitated mood and adjust his physical state.

Looking around, behind him was a turquoise lake, extending hundreds of meters outwards before being shrouded in layers of white mist, obscuring the distant scenery; and a few dozen meters in front of Allen was a flat grassland, occasionally with some signs of being grazed, but mostly dotted with wildflowers; further ahead was a dense jungle, and a high mountain rose from the ground, somewhat similar to the ruins in his dream.

On both the left and right sides, he was also surrounded by the lake, so it seemed that he was on an isolated island.

The dragon, still sound asleep, had a long trail of saliva at the corner of its mouth, seemingly having a sweet dream.

Allen could even feel a happy aura emanating from its beastly head.

In the long dream, he had actually forgotten about the dragon, making Allen feel a bit more emotional and a bit guilty upon seeing the dragon again.

Walking up to Figglas' massive head, Allen reached out his palm to pat it when suddenly a milky white cloud of gas emerged, transforming into a beautiful face, instantly alerting Allen.

"If I were you, I wouldn't wake him up for now."

The two mimicked lips on the human face moved up and down, actually making a sound, a clear and melodious voice like the chirping of a bird.

"Who are you?"

Feeling that the cloud-like human face had no malice, and most importantly, not sensing any threat, Allen raised his head and asked 'her' seriously.

"I am just a wisp of remnant soul lingering in the world, and I have no malice towards you."

The cloud of mist was gathering, and the facial features on the human face it formed became more and more detailed and realistic.

This face made Allen feel familiar, but it also seemed like he had never seen it before.

"Why don't you want me to wake up my companion?"

Allen did not relax his vigilance, and was also not very satisfied with the other party's answer.

"You came to adventure this time, don't you want to take the lead in exploring?

The most precious thing in these ruins is in the temple on the top of the misty mountain in front of you.

If you wake him up, wouldn't there be another competitor to snatch the treasure from you?"

A graceful figure began to emerge, and the lifelike surprised expression on the cloud-like human face made Allen feel no falsehood.

"Let me tell you, there are not only a lot of treasures in the temple, but also things that can help you advance to demigod!!"

The clear voice was full of temptation, and the content of the words made Allen's heart flutter, but the more this happened, the more uneasy Allen felt.

Although the previous long dream was illusory, some of the spiritual baptisms encountered in the dream brought some changes to Allen.

Dong!!

Allen's palm fell directly, smashing the cloud-like human face in front of him to pieces.

"…Aww!! Who is it!!! How dare you disturb the great Figglas!!!"

The situation in the dream where he couldn't wake up his companion did not happen.

Allen's palm easily dragged Figglas back to reality from his slumber, but this behavior not only did not elicit Figglas' gratitude, but instead a heavy tail sweep went straight towards Allen's body.

Bang!!

Allen turned his palm into a fist, hitting the bone hammer on Figglas' fat tail, calmly deflecting the tail sweep.

"Ah?? How did I fall asleep??"

Figglas, opening his sleepy vertical pupils, finally figured out the situation, and called out somewhat awkwardly.

"Sorry, sorry, I really didn't do it on purpose, it was just a conditioned reflex."

"I know."

Allen smiled faintly, saying indifferently, his eyes always staying on the gradually dissipating cloud.

"You little goblin, you really don't know how to be grateful at all!!"

The cloud-like human face appeared mysteriously again, immediately arousing Figglas' strong interest: "Huh, an illusion?"

It seemed that physical attacks had no effect on this human face formed by clouds.

Seeing the slightly coquettish face, Allen was only calculating how to dispel this ghostly face if he launched an attack next.

"Hmph!! I didn't expect that after so many years, you lizard clan can still survive!!"

"Looking for death!! How dare you insult my mighty dragon clan's reputation!!"

Figglas was originally fascinated by this handsome face, but after hearing the contempt for the dragon in the other party's voice, he immediately turned his face and spat out a mouthful of dragon breath on the spot.

"Giggle, reptile!! If your companion hadn't woken you up, I could have let you live in your dreams until you died!!"

The white human face constantly appeared and disappeared, appearing and disappearing in the spacious meadow, completely unaffected by Figglas' scorching dragon breath.

On the contrary, the originally lush meadow on the ground was turned into scorched earth under the ravages of the dragon's breath.

"Is it you who did this??"

Allen's eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a faint killing intent.

"Giggle, goblin Allen, you should thank me.

I have given you the direction in the dream for your most urgent pursuit!!"

The human face transformed into a small flower fairy, flying around while looking at Allen with a meaningful look.

"What do you mean?"

Allen frowned slightly, not yet understanding what the other party meant.

"Allen, don't be bewitched by it, this thing is weird!!!"

Figglas kept twisting his big head, chasing the figure of the flower fairy, but the dragon's breath, which covered a wide area, failed to hurt this white phantom in the slightest.

"Yah!!!"

The illusion, which was originally confronting Allen and the others, seemed to sense something, then turned its head and said to Allen: "Are you sure you still want to entangle with me?"

"The three adventurers who came earlier than you seem to be approaching the temple ruins!!"

"What??"

“We can't let those guys get away with it, Allen, we need to hurry and chase after them!!”

Figglas closed his big mouth, and the flames that filled the sky instantly dissipated, as he anxiously shouted at Allen.

“I'll lead the way for you!!”

The Mirage Flower Fairy unexpectedly offered to lead, and without giving Allen and Figglas a chance to respond, she flew straight towards the towering mountain deep within the isolated island.

“……”

Allen hesitated slightly. Although this mirage didn't seem dangerous, their attacks, including Figglas', seemed to have no effect on her. If she had some ulterior motive, like attracting their attention only to lead them into a prepared trap, that wouldn't be impossible.

Figglas flapped his wings and chased after her without hesitation. As a creature at the top of the predatory pyramid, Figglas felt that while the Mirage Flower Fairy was somewhat strange and troublesome, it wouldn't be easy for her to scheme against him, especially with a stronger Gnoll companion by his side.

“…Fig…”

Allen shook his head helplessly, then stomped his foot and followed, his figure quickly disappearing into the dense jungle.

When Kozumer and Zorf and Arier entered the ruins, they didn't fall asleep like Allen and Figglas. Aside from a brief moment of distraction when passing through the passage, they immediately began exploring the isolated island after landing.

Arier searched with extra caution. The three of them seemed to be working together seamlessly at the moment, but in reality, Zorf and Kozumer were closer. They were both Kobolds and had been partners in life and death since they were young. His participation in this adventure was more of a reluctant choice for them. In the limited time they had, they could only choose to cooperate with him, as Arier had deeper conflicts with the Gnoll Allen and wouldn't team up with him.

If there had been more time, he probably wouldn't have been able to participate in this adventure, or rather, he would have just been one of many collaborators.

There were scattered building ruins in the jungle, but judging from their style and layout, the three of them determined that it should be an ordinary residential area. After searching and finding almost nothing, they continued to search forward.

“Roar!!!!”

“Jiji!!!!”

A group of Steel-toothed Baboons rushed out of the cliff caves on the mountain peak. Having already learned to use crude weapons, they threw fist-sized stones at the three alien creatures who had suddenly appeared in their territory.

The stones, carrying the full force of a mid-level combatant, were harmless to the three powerful Legends. Annoyed, Kozumer struck his warhammer against the shield in front of him, and a huge electric net instantly enveloped the heads of the baboons below who didn't know any better.

Buzz~~

Most of the Steel-toothed Baboons were turned into charred corpses in the electric net. The few remaining baboons on the edge of the net, realizing the danger, screamed and scurried back into the cave.

None of the three cared. To them, the corpses of these beasts below weren't even worth a second glance. Just as they were about to leave, a deafening roar suddenly came from the cave. A giant baboon, 4-5 meters tall, with two long, everted fangs, rushed out like a cannonball, smashing straight towards the relatively small Zorf.

“Heh heh!!”

Sensing the magical fluctuations in the giant baboon's body, Zorf was delighted instead of surprised. Judging from the thick magic power, this was obviously a rare high-level magic beast.

Whoosh! Whoosh!!

Two sharp earth spikes shot out from the baboon's hands, piercing towards Zorf like javelins. Following closely behind, the baboon swung its arms, aiming to smash Zorf's space.

The grayish-white earth spikes flew towards Zorf like lightning. Just as they were about to pierce Zorf's body, the earth spikes, far larger than Zorf's body, suddenly stopped. It turned out that Zorf casually stretched out his hands and slapped the sharpest head of the earth spikes.

The hard stone cone slowly ground into powder. At the same time, Zorf's body swayed slightly, and his right leg quickly kicked forward, knocking away the baboon's fist, which was as thick as Zorf's height, and there was a faint sound of bone fracture mixed in.

“Awoo!!”

The baboon was enraged. Just as it raised its head, preparing to knock Zorf away, Zorf's arms were already on the baboon's two arm-thick exposed canine teeth.

Crack!!

The baboon's mouth spewed out bloody, fishy water. The two hardest teeth were forcibly pried out of its mouth by Zorf, who even took the time to examine the material of the teeth.

Having suffered such a heavy blow, the baboon finally felt that something was wrong. The seemingly small reptile in front of him actually had the strength to easily take its life. Its beastly instinct made it immediately borrow strength from the vines on the cliff, and then escape at an even faster speed.

“Tsk tsk, you only want to escape now, it's too late!!”

A javelin appeared in Zorf's hand. With a wave of his right hand, the baboon's body, which was fleeing down the cliff, suddenly froze, and then hung limply on the cliff.

“Hurry up and clean up, don't waste too much time.”

High-level magic beasts are not common in the wilderness. Collecting the materials is at least a high-level magic equipment, plus a few bottles of high-level potions. However, for the three legendary powerhouses in front of them, these were only worth their effort. If they wanted to use them to improve their strength, it was still a bit lacking.

Therefore, when the baboon leader chose to attack Zorf, the other two Legends stood by and watched, letting Zorf clean up on his own, so that everyone would have fewer conflicts in the distribution of spoils.

Similar episodes occurred from time to time. Although the three hadn't found the true site of the ruins, these magic beast materials alone had already made them a small fortune. As the three of them climbed higher and higher up the mountain, the strength of the magic beasts they encountered became stronger, and even magic beasts equivalent to the early stage of the Legend realm had appeared, which really required them to put in some effort.

On the other side of the mountain, Allen and Figglas, led by the Mirage Flower Fairy, not only didn't walk on the road intersecting with Kozumer and the others, but the Flower Fairy seemed to be avoiding meeting Kozumer's group as much as possible. The two sides were almost in opposite directions, unless they reached the top of the mountain, otherwise they might not encounter each other.

Allen and Figglas naturally couldn't know this, but they didn't relax their vigilance. During the action, they occasionally exchanged glances, and both were prepared to fight at any time.

Alas, it seems that more than a month of suspended updates has caused many book friends to leave. I made a small joke and there were only a few people leaving messages~~
