Banner of the Evil God

"Alas! Big men also have big troubles!" In the shallow water near the coast, a huge beast was sighing.

After leaving the Ice Trench, Sui Xiong set off towards the land in the giant whale's memory, and soon arrived at this coast.

The scenery here is not good. The seaside is covered with black tidal flats. You can smell a rotten smell from a long distance away. It is simply a huge muddy pond.

Sui Xiong didn't like this environment, but he had no choice. According to the memory of the giant whale, all the known areas nearby are covered with black tidal flats like this, and they are the same everywhere.

The giant whale does not have much curiosity. It just cruises in the sea habitually, but even so, it once cruised along the coastline for two or three days. There is no difference wherever you go.

So Sui Xiong had no choice but to sigh, control the body of the deformed giant jellyfish, and try to walk towards the shore.

He wasn't worried about lack of oxygen or drying up. Anyway, the jellyfish was already dead, so it didn't matter what happened. What's more, the thick skin that he has repeatedly strengthened and covered with the tough outer skin from the giant whale is completely enough to prevent the loss of water in the body.

However, he overlooked one big thing.

Once on land, without the buoyancy of sea water, the weight of the giant beast's huge body will be a huge trouble.

He had tried it just now. Even if he was not completely out of the water, just by leaving the water with his upper body, the huge weight had already made the tentacles carrying the weight sink deeply into the beach mud, making every step forward very troublesome. If you completely leave the water, I'm afraid it will be difficult to move.

Maybe he could use his strong strength to forcefully open a path, even if every step left a big hole in the ground, he could still move forward step by step, but that would not only be a waste of power, but also look stupid.

Walking or digging...

Sui Xiong really didn't want to do that stupid thing, so he had to use his brain and try to think of a way to solve the problem.

After much deliberation, he finally came up with a solution that was not a solution.

Since the body is huge and heavy, and it is difficult to move around, it is not enough to make the body smaller and lighter.

He can break down the muscles and bones that make up the body into nutrients and then concentrate these nutrients to reduce volume and weight.

This kind of thing, which is absolutely contrary to common sense in biology and the conservation of mass, is absolutely impossible on earth, but it is not impossible in this world.

It’s just very troublesome, and the conversion process wastes a lot of nutrients.

Sui Xiong didn't want to waste it like this, but in order to land on land, find people, and understand the details of this world, he had no choice.

The huge sea monster's body trembled and shrank rapidly. After a while, it had shrunk from a hill-like giant to less than one percent of its previous size.

According to the information in the giant whale's memory, his current size is probably about the same as a small fishing boat used by ordinary fishermen.

Sui Xiong had the intention to shrink further, but his body at this moment had shrunk to the extreme. Apart from the necessary skin, flesh and bone structure, the remaining parts were almost entirely composed of highly concentrated nutrients, leaving no room for further compression.

"Although it's still a bit big, that's all I can do..."

Sighing, this large jellyfish, which can still be called a giant beast in the sea, took a step forward, supported its body with dozens of tentacles, crossed the muddy beach, and landed on land.

The muddy beach was not an obstacle to Sui Xiong. With the tentacles paddling briskly, he walked across the beach in a short while and stepped into the woods by the sea.

The woods here are quite strange. The ground and the vegetation are all gray and black, just different shades of black. Walking in the woods, one can feel a gloomy force permeating the air, which is turbid and chaotic, making Sui Xiong feel a little uncomfortable.

"Weird magic power. There has never been such a place in the giant whale's memory. It seems to be unique to land." Sui Xiong sensed the surrounding situation as he moved forward, "Strange, why are there so few creatures in this forest? It’s obviously lush and lush, but there aren’t even many insects.”

His soul is so powerful that even the giant whale that has lived for who knows how many years can't match it. Even if he doesn't deliberately strengthen his senses, he can clearly understand the disturbances within several miles around him. In his perception, he clearly found that although the forest was lush with plants, it lacked animals and insects, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised.

In the vast nature, wherever there are plants, there should be herbivores that feed on plants, and then there should be carnivores that feed on herbivores, thus forming a food chain. Even if there were no animals, there should at least be insects with strong adaptability. But the situation in the woods was completely contrary to the common sense of biology he knew. It was so weird that it was indescribable.

You must know that he has been in this world for a long time, and has traveled to many places in the vast sea. He also obtained part of the memory of the narwhal whale by devouring souls, but whether he saw it with his own eyes or In the giant whale's memory, he has never seen such a strange phenomenon.

Coupled with the strange magic in the air that even the giant whale had never seen before, he had some vague suspicions.

"This ghost place...could it be a so-called 'forbidden land' created due to the chaos of magic power?"

In this world, there are "forbidden areas". Those places are either inhabited by powerful and abnormal monsters, or the magic power is so thick and chaotic that it is unbearable, thus becoming a life forbidden area that most creatures are afraid to approach.

For example, the Ice Trench where Sui Xiong practiced not long ago is a "forbidden area".

Looking at the strange appearance of this forest, it does have some meaning of a "forbidden area", but Sui Xiong never thought that there would be such a strange "forbidden area" in the world - it has little effect on plants, but is extremely unfriendly to animals.

The bad thing is that the flesh he is using at this moment is also considered an animal.

After realizing this, he immediately became cautious and strengthened his sense of the surroundings, not daring to relax at all.

Although his body is actually a soul, he may not be afraid of the danger in this "forbidden area", but who knows if it will be worse?

It's better to be safe than sorry!

He walked carefully for a while, but he didn't encounter any danger. Instead, there were more insects around him. Sui Xiong realized that he might have been too cautious and made a mistake.

The reason why there are few animals and insects in this forest may not be because of any danger, but because they just don't like the seaside environment.

Sui Xiong mistook Feng Jing for Ma Liang, but it was a little joke.

Fortunately, he was alone here, so he could make a joke, but no one would really laugh at him.

After laughing at himself, Sui Xiong finally put his mind at ease and continued to move forward.

The black forest was very large. He landed on the shore in the afternoon and walked until dark, but he couldn't get out of the forest. Watching the sunset and the moonrise, although the night did not affect Sui Xiong's actions, he habitually found a clearing in the forest and rested for a while.

Walking during the day and sleeping at night was a habit he deliberately maintained, not for safety, but just to keep some traces of "people".

During this period of time, Sui Xiong found that he had become more and more accustomed to the lifestyle of monsters, and gradually forgot his lifestyle as a human in the past. This made him a little uneasy, so he deliberately kept some human habits. Not for anything else, just to remind himself that he was not really a big monster, but a "human".

There was no vegetation in the clearing in the forest, the soil was extremely black, and the chaotic and turbid magic in the air was much thicker. Sui Xiong chose to rest here, in fact, he also had some tentative intentions.

If there was really something strange in the forest, it should be in a place like this clearing.

He stopped under a big tree at the edge of the clearing and waited patiently.

Sure enough, not long after, when the last ray of sunset disappeared in the sky, something strange happened in the forest.

Wisps of black air emerged from the ground, like haze, gradually covering the earth.

Sui Xiong clearly saw that the black air coming out of the clearing was thick and dense, no longer wisps, but streams, like small fountains.

He became alert and prepared for battle.

As the black gas became more and more, the turbid and chaotic magic power in the air gradually became thicker, especially above the open space, the magic power even gradually condensed to the point where it was visible to the naked eye, intermingled with the black mist, and turned into a group of flowing vortices.

After a while, the ground slowly cracked, and black skeletons emerged one by one.

"What is this? Undead Scourge?" Sui Xiong was stunned. He didn't expect to see such a fantasy thing. He then carefully observed the skeletons, but found that they didn't bring him much sense of danger, and didn't seem to be powerful.

He waited for a while, and saw more and more skeletons emerging from the ground, gradually squeezed into a pile, densely packed. But they stood there motionless, as if they were just in a daze.

"These skeletons...what's going on?"

Sui Xiong did not act rashly, and continued to wait patiently.

When the number of skeletons reached a certain level, no more skeletons emerged from the ground, but the turbid and chaotic magic power in the air began to gradually condense and gather towards the skeletons.

Sui Xiong keenly felt that, although the speed was not fast, the magic power was being absorbed by the skeletons bit by bit.

This situation lasted all night, until the moon was about to set and the dawn gradually appeared in the sky, the ground cracked again, and all the skeletons returned to the ground, and the thick magic power quickly dissipated along with the black air.

When the sun shone on the earth again, the forest had returned to the appearance he saw at first.

Sui Xiong did not leave, but stayed next to the clearing, waiting for the next night.

On the second night, the situation he saw last night was repeated again.

When the sun shone on the earth again and the skeletons returned to the clearing again, Sui Xiong couldn't help laughing.

This situation is really weird, but very interesting!
