Chapter 450 448:Grotesque Sight
While stepping on the rotten pieces of meat, they moved forward. It seemed as if the whole floor was covered with it as the knights followed the trail of Alex and Noah, and like the surroundings, their expressions turned rotten.
"Is that a part of the human body?"One of them murmured as he saw something that popped out of the wall which looked like a figure but it was distinctly shaped like a person\'s finger.
"And this looked like a piece of the limb."Another also discovered something like that.
Pieces of meat stuck on the ground were shaped like human body parts and after this, they found more pieces that resembled human body parts.
There were dried-up skulls, half-rotten eyes, ears and tongues.
The pieces were less rotten as they moved forward and looked at all the pieces before them.
The rotten smell also decreased along with the flow of mana.
At that time they heard a loud sound from afar and when they reached the place, some subconsciously gulped due to the nervousness building inside them.
Though they were knights who had encountered various kinds of situations, this sight was something that they saw for the first time. It looked like this place was used by a psychopath serial killer.
The Knight at the front cut the pieces off the meat covering his vision but no blood came out. The cut pieces twitched a little bit.
As they raised his brows, they saw lumps of meat like a wriggling worm moving forward and gathering at a place.
And when they reached, they saw an ominous presence occupying the floor.
Unlike the other floors, there was only room and in the centre of it, an enormous being shaped like a giant bud of meat came into view.
The knights looked at Alex and Noah staring at things with perplexed gazes.
Its colour faded like a fish that had lost its freshness. It was rotten and dull. However, it wasn\'t dead.
It made a big jolt every time they heard a strong mana pulse that seemed to be pumping mana.
"What is that?"Noah asked Alex with disgust. Almost everyone has the same thought.
"Who will I ask if you ask me?"
"I think it\'s better if we crush that shithead and bring him out to answer this," Alex muttered.
He was feeling quite stifled at the scene as he thought about the number of beings who were killed to make something like this.
Wilford almost shed tears and spoke with a sorrowful expression"Oh Goddess, just what kind of crimes did I commit in my previous life that I have to fight this kind of thing in my old age?"
Noah and Alex glared at him and both of them had the same thought
\'Isn\'t this man overreacting a bit.\'
"Noah burn it. Just burn this disgusting trash. It\'s sin for my eyes to watch this."Alex spoke while stepping back.
He wasn\'t exaggerating a bit. It is a sin to fight this thing. It was so ugly to look at that one glance of it may make a man vegetarian and turn a wild man into a Saint who would never harbour any thought to kill anyone.
"Why don\'t you do it?"Noah asked but he still rushed forward.
Noah waved his staff which spewed flame and crashed onto the bloody lump trying to burn it.
However….
Twitch!
A strong mana pulse shook everyone and spreading everywhere it extinguished the sea of flames.
The clumps of meat made everyone tense up. The bud formed by meat, a phrase that came into everyone\'s mind as soon as their eyes landed on it and it seemed more like it as it moved.
Swish!
Like a blooming flower bud, its petals started to move apart one by one. Petal after petal fell, the disgusting petal made of meat lowered down squinting onto the floor and after many layers of petals gall, an existence inside it came into view.
A monster appeared and its complete form was like a long human of meat and there was a reddish layer of skin over it.
That was already grotesque but between these meat pieces, there were many human parts stuck in them.
Many pairs of arms and legs struck out like needles.
Eyes, nose and ears appeared over the arms.
BLINK!
The monster opened its eyes and its bloodshot eyes rolled around and fixed on them.
"Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!"
The monster cried with various voices.
Wilford stood up before Alex and Noah.
Wilford could feel a sense of danger and soon an arm packed with frightening power was thrown towards them.
Wilford\'s sword struck it down resulting in a violent collision pushing Alex and Noah a bit.
The Knights who stood far away suddenly screamed as they felt a tickle and saw large ogling arms poking them.
The many mouths appeared that tried to bite them but they reacted quickly and moving out of the way stomped on those pieces of meat.
Alex swung his sword at the nose that appeared underneath him while Noah covered them with a barrier as many hands tried to strike them.
But none of these attacks was strong enough when compared to the attack of the main body faced by Wilford.
Wilford clashes with a pair of arms thrown toward him. If possible he wanted to dodge it but the pressure from these punches may injure those behind him.
Each of them was packed with incredible strength which greatly surprised him. The monster doesn\'t have a stable base or supporting foothold but still, it was generating a great strength enough to rival him.
The man who claimed to be the leader seemed to be inside that structure.
BANG!BANG!BANG!BANG!
Alex stabbed his sword at wriggling meats and felt as if hundreds of eyes were glaring at him.
He looked at Wilford and thought that bringing him here and saving his strength was worth it but his expression stiffened as he felt an odd amount of mana.
"Alex, can you also feel it?"Noah asked with a trembling voice.
He was finding it hard to maintain his expression as he observed the strong pulse of the heartbeat which pumped enormous amounts of mana all around.
Alex looked at it and his heart skipped a bit and he nodded his head.
"Yeah, Noah I can feel it. This thing is using the heart of the dragon to keep it running and from falling apart."
