Chapter 596 - : Have You Eaten?
Chapter 596: Chapter 596: Have You Eaten?
Facing the four ferocious giant apes was one thing, but dammit, the maze corridor seemed to have a mind of its own.
As it realized that one giant ape was enough to occupy the whole corridor, the entire corridor began to expand.
From previously only being able to accommodate one giant ape, it had now expanded to the point where four giant apes could stand side by side without being crowded!
Initially, they could restrain the giant apes with the narrow space.
Now the terrain had broadened, making the colossal apes’ activity range larger and more flexible.
How the hell are we supposed to fight this?
Jiang Xiaobai wasn’t overly worried; he believed in his strength, but the elves didn’t share his optimism!
“Divide into groups of three and fight your own battles, remember, lend a hand if necessary!”
At this moment, Qiongyu suddenly let out a cold snort.
The remaining fifteen people immediately divided into five groups and scattered.
The giant apes roared angrily, swung their giant hammers, and began seeking out targets to attack.
What dumbfounded Jiang Xiaobai was that two giant apes were actually charging towards him!
He had used underhanded methods to kill one giant ape before, but that thing was already dead. There’s no reason for the grudge to suddenly fall upon him, right?
“Damn it!”
Cursing loudly, Jiang Xiaobai quickly retreated. He was confident he could easily kill these two, but that would require going full blast.
And that would reveal too much!
He didn’t want others to know too much, even though his soul blade was invisible and undetectable to others.
But if it appeared too often, it would inevitably arouse suspicion!
True enough, Jiang Xiaobai’s aggro was too high, and these two brutes were always targeting him.
They completely ignored the surrounding elves. Even when they stepped on some elves, the giant apes just kept charging after Jiang Xiaobai!
All of this was seen by Qiongyu, who was locked in battle, improving her perception of Jiang Xiaobai!
Not just her, every elf, except Su Tian, thought the same!
They all believed that Jiang Xiaobai was helping to draw away some of the aggro!
“Let’s end this quickly, and go help him later! We don’t know what sort of trouble lies ahead!” Even Lu Zixue echoed this sentiment.
Her attitude towards Jiang Xiaobai had changed quite a bit.
After all, one’s true character is revealed in times of crisis!
Little did they know, Jiang Xiaobai was not drawing the aggro. He simply wanted to deal with these two giant apes on his own and test his own abilities.
With Jiang Xiaobai drawing the attention of two giant apes, the fifteen elves fought the remaining two. Although somewhat strained, they were still coping.
In particular, when Qiongyu fought alone, her power was fully flaunted!
Meanwhile, Jiang Xiaobai had run far away and the two giant apes trailing him were tirelessly chasing after him, continuously roaring, leaving a trail of slobbery saliva on the ground.
Seeing that the situation was almost ripe, Jiang Xiaobai sneered, raised his hand, and smashed a bolt of blue thunder at them.
Void Thunder!
Bang!
The blue thunderbolt directly hit one of the giant apes in the chest, blasting it and scorching its chest black.
Jiang Xiaobai was astounded by the power of this attack!
“Hiss, not bad, this Void Thunder is quite powerful!”
Jiang Xiaobai was excited. However, the next moment, the blasted giant ape actually got up again, as if it was unaffected.
Jiang Xiaobai was speechless at once.
“Damn, I celebrated too early!”
Muttering another curse, Jiang Xiaobai lifted his hand and another blue thunderbolt hit the other giant ape.
This time, Jiang Xiaobai used his full strength to urge the Void Thunder technique!
The effect was evidently a little better than before. This time the huge ape lay paralyzed on the ground for three seconds before getting up, staggering.
For a moment, Jiang Xiaobai’s mouth twitched. However, he quickly realized that it wasn’t because his Void Thunder lacked power, but because the giant ape was too strong!
Back then, the combined attack of the elf tribe couldn’t break the defenses of the giant ape, let alone now, when this ape was even bigger than the previous one!
Under such circumstances, to be able to paralyze it for three seconds was already quite an achievement!
If replaced with someone of the same realm, even if the opponent were a top fighter from the upper three thousand worlds, they would probably still struggle to survive.
Comparing it this way, Jiang Xiaobai felt much more balanced in his heart.
“Not bad, my time spent being struck by lightning wasn’t wasted after all!”
Afterwards, Jiang Xiaobai started trying out some other ideas, like whether the Void Thunder could attach to his Yuan Rainbow?
Upon trying, it turned out to be feasible, and the power even increased a lot.
Now, Jiang Xiaobai was able to wound the giant ape with a sword. With the addition of Void Thunder, the wound was even more horrific.
After this, Jiang Xiaobai started to play around with the idea of attaching the Void Thunder on his soul blade.
But this time he overdid it!
As the blue thunder was attached to the soul blade, the soul blade exploded on the spot.
The explosion was terrible, Jiang Xiaobai was blown far away.
The giant apes, which had already been enraged by Jiang Xiaobai, were ready to attack. But seeing Jiang Xiaobai being blown away by his own technique, they were stunned on the spot.
Picking himself up from the ground and scratching his head, Jiang Xiaobai mumbled, “Damn, my thoughts were too excessive.”
“Forget about these for now; I’ve done all the experimentation. Now I should see how much power I actually have.”
Jiang Xiaobai snorted coldly, brandished his Yuan Rainbow, and rushed at the two giant apes.
Once more engaged in battle, Jiang Xiaobai held nothing back, displaying all his skills!
The speed of the giant apes was no match for Jiang Xiaobai; they were utterly defeated!
Whenever a punch swung over, Jiang Xiaobai could easily dodge. Even when the two giant apes used hammers to attack together, Jiang Xiaobai was not afraid at all and evaded effortlessly.
Once the opponent’s attack became ineffective, it meant that they were done for!
No matter how strong you are, if you can’t hit me, what can you do?
The following time was Jiang Xiaobai’s solo show, slaying the giant apes one sword stroke at a time.
After finishing, Jiang Xiaobai looked at the corpses in front of him and clapped his hands in satisfaction.
But then he realized, wasn’t singlehandedly killing two giant apes a bit too much?
Right now, he was supposed to be a weakling in Qiongyu’s team. He didn’t want to reveal his strength so soon, otherwise, when trouble came, that bastard Su Tian might force him to take action.
Just as he was thinking about how to solve this, his heart suddenly jolted and his body stiffened. Slowly, Jiang Xiaobai turned around and saw a giant spider behind him.
Its eight eyes, each twice the size of his head, were fixed upon him.
Its sharp mouthparts were trembling slightly.
Gulp.
Jiang Xiaobai subconsciously reached out to the spider and greeted it.
“Fancy meeting you here,” he said.
“Have you eaten already?”
