Honda immediately released the Purple Gold Gourd, stood on it, and then threw out flying swords. These swords conjured thousands of blades, rescuing classmates and disaster victims who were about to fall into the crevice. It wasn't that Honda didn't want to save them all, but he simply couldn't control too many swords for precise maneuvers. Some people could only be lifted using two swords, but even so, many were saved. This led those who returned to the unbroken land to express their endless gratitude to Honda.
Today, Honda wasn't going to give Li Jiayu a chance to show off. After all, any move she made now would attract attention. However, the Sacred Armor Centipede King was still underground, and Honda planned to wait for it to surface before attacking!
"Thank you, Honda!" Xiao Wanqing, who had been rescued by Honda's magic sword, came to Honda's gourd. After expressing her gratitude, she quickly went to comfort her anxious classmates. Honda also dragged Li Jiayu's cousin-in-law over. After thanking Honda, she began to help treat the injured. She was a strong and good woman, but unfortunately, she had led Li Jiayu astray.
When Li Jiayu arrived, he breathed a deep sigh of relief! Today had been quite a shock for him. First, there was the Sacred Armored Centipede King, which hadn't appeared in his previous life, and then Xiao Wanqing almost fell into the fissure in the ground. Moreover, the losses were particularly severe; many bicycles and handcarts carrying important items had all fallen into the underground cracks.
What worried Li Jiayu even more was whether the Sacred Armor Centipede King's attack was intentional or just an unconscious roll. If it was the latter, things would be easier; if it was the former, he would have to prepare to drag Honda and Xiao Wanqing along. It wasn't that he didn't trust Honda's strength, but rather that the difference in their levels was too great, making them incomparable.
The worst of the earthquakes has passed, and Saigo University suffered minimal damage thanks to Honda's focused rescue efforts. However, dozens of people have died!
A hint of seriousness appeared on Honda's face; she didn't want to be caught off guard! Acting recklessly with the mindset of someone with cheat codes wouldn't necessarily lead to death, but Honda couldn't bear the humiliation. The enormous life form conveyed to Honda the message that it was about to burst from the ground! The peak fourth-tier Holy Armored Centipede King was about to emerge!
"Bang!"
First came the thousands of rats, then the unusual behavior of birds and beasts. This made Li Jiayu very uneasy, and it seemed he had to prepare for the worst.
The major earthquake had only subsided for two or three minutes when another incredibly violent earthquake suddenly sounded five or six hundred meters ahead.
Everyone jumped up reflexively, looking at the trembling ground. They looked at each other, wondering if a second major earthquake was about to strike.
That would be terrible. The first wave killed so many people; wouldn't the second wave be even worse? The entire ground might collapse!
However, this is not the second wave of earthquakes...
Instead, it's an even worse situation.
Because everyone witnessed an extremely terrifying scene.
"Boom!"
With a deafening explosion, a cloud of dust suddenly erupted from the ground. Through the dust, one could vaguely make out a grotesque and enormous head, gleaming with dazzling light, bursting forth from the earth. Its enormous, terrifying jaws writhed, and it let out a deafening roar that could shatter eardrums.
"Buzz..."
Everyone covered their ears.
An overwhelming force swept over them, causing the survivors who had just gotten up to collapse to the ground once again.
Everyone felt a panic and tremor that seemed to come from the depths of their souls, as if their hearts were being gripped in the hands of a bloodthirsty demon. Not only were their bodies stiff, but even their tongues were completely frozen, rendering them unable to utter a single word.
The atmosphere at the scene was terrifyingly oppressive. The vast天地 (heaven and earth) was suffocatingly silent; it seemed that no more earthquake sounds could be heard. Only the sharp, piercing cry of the monster echoed between heaven and earth, reverberating in the souls of everyone present.
Several elderly people, who were in poor physical condition and had weak mental strength, suddenly started bleeding from all seven orifices, collapsed to the ground, convulsed a few times, and died.
Did they actually see it?
A centipede
That was a centipede that was almost enormous!
The grotesque centipede head alone, with its bony spikes pointing upwards, was a full thirty meters thick, as big as a basketball court.
Moreover, thick black poisonous smoke billowed from its gaping maw, emanating an incredibly intense aura of rage, as if a single movement could destroy the world.
Its eyes were as large as a blackboard, gleaming with an extremely violent gaze. Anyone who met its eyes felt a chilling, overwhelming fear, like a bolt of cold electricity coursing through their body. The hatred and malice contained in those eyes were enough to tear a human soul apart.
Li Jiayu stared grimly at the Sacred Armored Centipede King. His bad premonition had come true. You wouldn't believe it, a level 50 boss appearing before a level 10 newbie. Game designer, I have a curse I don't know if I should say! If it were the old Dark Summoner, the Sacred Armored Centipede King would have been easy prey. But now, even if Li Jiayu had leveled up a new character and fought it head-on, even the Sacred Armored Centipede King's deadly sonic wave would have easily killed him, not to mention his current abilities wouldn't even scratch the Sacred Armored Centipede King.
The troubled Li Jiayu completely missed the look of fascination in Honda's eyes, as if he were eyeing a delicious meal. Honda decided to 'do it'.
