"Could this be a blinding trick? Is Instakill’s real intention to escape?"
"Very likely, I guess this dragon head is just to distract us, and while we’re not paying attention, that creature took the opportunity to break through and slip away!"
"Damn it! I thought Instakill was going to use some powerful sure-kill technique, but it turned out to be all bark and no bite!"
The crowd buzzed with discussion, all doubting whether Huang Yi was bluffing, with no actual killer move, and that escaping was his real intention.
"Hmm? What’s that?" Suddenly, someone in the crowd noticed that where the dragon head had been, there seemed to be a huge creature appearing within the hazy ripples. It wasn’t very clear, but a pair of green eyes stared straight at everyone, making all feel uneasy.
Soon, the dragon head completely dissipated, and the full form of the immense creature was finally revealed!
Before their eyes stood a gigantic monkey covered in red fur, as if it had been soaked in a sea of blood. With each breath, its nostrils exhaled two streams of crimson mist, sticky like the fog of blood. Its sharp eyes surveyed the crowd, cold and crazed.
This was indeed a clone of the Demon Monkey, it had escaped! After being imprisoned for countless years, it finally broke free!
The Demon Monkey in the Heroes’ Prison was filled with surprise as it perceived that its clone had actually escaped from the Heroes’ Prison and descended into the beautiful Mortal World!
However, soon its perception of the clone became weaker and weaker until it finally disappeared completely, and it could no longer sense its clone!
"Ao ao!" The Demon Monkey paused for a moment, then angrily beat its paws against the prison door, howling in agony!
It hadn’t expected this outcome. As the entrance to the Heroes’ Prison closed, the connection to its clone was severed. Without the control of the main body’s will, its clone was left without any reason, reduced to its most primitive bloodthirsty nature, no longer under its control!
In other words, the Demon Monkey’s expenditure of its strength to create a clone was in vain, as the clone no longer belonged to it. Even if it escaped, it would be of no use and further decreased its strength by 1%.
While the Demon Monkey howled in agony inside the prison, the situation at Wind Forest Stronghold was not any better. Confronted by this mysterious monkey, everyone felt as if they were suffocating.
"Aow~" The giant wolf beneath Barbaric Hammer suddenly cried out, watching the Demon Monkey’s clone guardedly. They were both Giant Beasts, but their auras were completely different. The clone of the Demon Monkey was obviously much stronger, like the difference between a noble and a commoner.
"Aowuu!" Finally, the Demon Monkey’s clone moved! It raised its blood-red head towards the moon in the sky and let out a howling roar, a circle of sound waves visibly sweeping outwards in all directions! The sound waves mingled with the blood aura of the Demon Monkey’s fur, a potent poison that spread rapidly with the sound waves, sending observers flying, shaking some to death, or poisoning them! After such a roar, the Demon Monkey’s clone also transformed a weapon in its hands akin to a spear or staff, holding it with a power capable of splitting mountains and shattering the earth!
The crowd was shocked! Just a single roar from the monkey was enough to kill a group of people!
"Could this be Instakill’s method?" Finally, the crowd realized, Huang Yi had indeed held back a trump card, this Demon Monkey could turn Wind Forest Stronghold upside down.
"Run for it!" The survivors in the crowd were terrified, scattering in all directions!
"Pft!" A fleeing player was directly smashed into pieces by Barbaric Hammer’s hammer, turning into a pile of minced meat. Barbaric Hammer raised his War Hammer high, threatening loudly, "No one is aloud to run! Do you think this is the kind of place you can come and go as you please? You must stay and eliminate this Demon Monkey! And instakill Instakill back to Reincarnation before you can leave! If you don’t kill him, none of you are allowed to run! Otherwise, you die!"
The crowd glanced at each other, and for a moment, everyone stayed put, not daring to run anymore! The situation was now clear; Barbaric Hammer had forcibly dragged them into this battle, they must be enemies with Huang Yi!
This move was both vicious and poisonous, instantly putting Huang Yi on everyone’s opposing side!
"All of you, listen to my command and attack this Monkey with all your might! After killing this Monkey, go and decapitate Instakill to use his head as a drinking cup! Seize his Spirit Cat and treasures! Hunt him down forever and always!" Barbaric Hammer then issued a sure-kill order through gritted teeth!
With that, Barbaric Hammer clenched his thick legs around the wolf’s belly, carrying the massive Wolf Fang Club, and charged toward the Demon Monkey’s avatar, surrounded by Half-Beastman Guards who also raised their weapons to besiege the Demon Monkey’s avatar!
The Demon Monkey’s avatar was fearless, its green eyes swiftly turned red, as if engorged with blood. It kicked with its hind legs, meeting Barbaric Hammer head-on, instinctively feeling that this person was the greatest threat!
Soon, Barbaric Hammer and the Demon Monkey clashed in the air, the massive Wolf Fang Club smashed down on the Demon Monkey, which extended its Spear to defend itself, firmly blocking the powerful attack.
Then Barbaric Hammer was blown away by the huge impact, and the Demon Monkey was also shaken to the ground by the force, its huge body crashing into the crowd, instantly killing more than a dozen people.
Barbaric Hammer was at Level 40, while the Demon Monkey was as high as Level 103, but it was just an avatar, with only 1% of the main body’s strength. The two fought on equal footing!
Once Barbaric Hammer and the Demon Monkey regained their footing, they charged at each other again, clashing fiercely. Both mighty entities caused chaos everywhere; each move held the power to split mountains and crack the earth, turning Wind Forest Stronghold into a mere paper house in the aftermath, leaving everything in a mess.
The audience around was struck by a disaster; some died from the shockwaves of the battle, others were trampled by the giant wolves and the Demon Monkey, and yet others were crushed to death. They were as fragile as ants, with no chance to resist. Every collision between Barbaric Hammer and the Demon Monkey was like an earthquake, with the crowd tossing helplessly like a boat in a giant wave. Wind Forest Stronghold had completely become a purgatory on earth, with cries of pain, screams of agony, and sounds of battle intertwining in chaos.
Meanwhile, Huang Yi, the instigator, watched quietly from afar, ready to take advantage of the chaos.
Soon, bright white lights sparked one after another, as players died repeatedly; some of the unlucky ones went straight to Reincarnation, while others respawned at the nearby Respawn Point. However, the respawned players dared not venture out, all hiding within the safety Barrier of the Respawn Point, fearing the Demon Monkey’s avatar’s attack.
"Everyone, hide inside the Respawn Point and unleash long-range attacks! Hurry up and kill this Monkey, then go after Instakill! Don’t let him get away!" At that moment, Chen Yuxi roared, rallying the dozens of players inside the Respawn Point. It was safe inside the Respawn Point, and attacking the Demon Monkey’s avatar from there was a good idea.
