Final Lord

Chapter 41 News of Death
"Well, they are very fast. They are a pretty good type of soldiers, but that's all." The man in black robe waved his sleeves lightly, and the mud left by the poisonous snakes on the ground suddenly began to wriggle. A large group of even thicker poisonous snakes suddenly crawled out of the mud, catching the three cat sand beasts off guard!
"Meow meow!"

A cat-sand beast roared like lava. A long laceration from a venomous snake's fangs pierced its body. Blood gushed from the wound, attracting more venomous snakes. In pain, it fought back with all its might, its claws slicing the snake in half like lightning.

The venomous snake, severed in half, split into two, its neck and body each sprouting a new head. The cat-sand beast's pride in its dual attack and agility proved powerless against the increasing number of venomous snakes it slew.

When the third wave of snakes came, carrying with them the rotten mire, the cat-sand beasts finally realized that they could no longer fight.

They transformed into three whirlwinds, leaping rapidly among the treetops, leaving behind trails of hot blood.

"Want to leave? Have you asked me?" The man in black robe waved his sleeves at the three cat-sand beasts in the air. The cat-sand beasts that were leaping among the treetops screamed in unison, their bodies suddenly separated and fell from the treetops.

Their limbs were inevitably stained with mud on the ground during the battle. At this moment, the mud turned into small black snakes, biting their leg joints viciously.

The cat sand beasts all lowered their heads, enduring the excruciating pain as they bit the small snakes on their feet. But the snakes were like nails to their legs, refusing to let go no matter how hard they bit. In a moment's delay, the swarm of venomous snakes had already chased the cat sand beasts from behind, instantly overwhelming them.

"Meow!" The desperate and shrill roars of the cats echoed throughout the forest, startling a large flock of birds. They wanted to convey the news of the foreign invasion to Wang Bufu and his people in their last moments.

But this is the foot of Chicken Leg Mountain, several kilometers away from the top of the mountain, and their final efforts are in vain.

But the cat sand beast's sacrifice was not in vain. Although their calls could not be conveyed, a message that was faster than their calls had reached the territory - their death.

[Your subjects are under attack. Your subjects, Cat Sand Beast*3, have died.]

The sudden voice in his mind woke Wang Bufu from his deep sleep. He suddenly sat up from the bed, all sleepiness gone!
A cat sand beast died!

"I have told the Cat Sand Beast that if any monsters approach Chicken Leg Mountain, we must not engage in battle and must report back to the territory immediately.

Ordinary wild animals are absolutely no match for the Cat Sand Beast. There is an enemy invasion!"

Command! Command with precision! Command perfectly!

Wang Buzhi's thoughts surged, and his thoughts instantly spread to the minds of all the people in the territory.

"Assemble, prepare for battle! Plan Three!"

……

On the top of Jitui Mountain, a man in black robe stood next to the dark cave entrance. A large group of poisonous snakes gathered at the cave entrance, spitting out their tongues towards it.

He casually picked up a branch, lit it with magic, and threw it into the cave entrance. As the branch rolled down, a flight of earthen steps appeared before the black-robed man. The steps led all the way down, seemingly with no end in sight. "Kate's territory is actually hidden underground. It's only been so long since he escaped. It's impossible for him to dig such a deep cave and build a territory there. I guess Old Gru prepared it for him in advance."

Old Gru is indeed a ruthless man who was able to be knighted from a commoner. He is really flawless in everything he does. It's a pity that the father is a hero and the son is a dog, but he gave birth to a son who is nothing.

Old Gru, you must be very lonely in the underworld. Don't worry, I will send your son to be with you to fulfill his filial duty."

The black-robed man let out a strange laugh, and poisonous snakes continued to crawl out from under his black robe. A large group of venomous snakes slithered along the stairs, heading deeper into the cave.

Soon, the man in black robe felt that the poisonous snakes deep underground were safe. He snorted lightly, made a torch with a branch, and stepped into the cave.

The black-robed man descended the dirt steps, his boots crunching the dry earth. When he reached the end of the steps, the sight before him made him pause. This wasn't the Kate family's secret stronghold as he'd expected, but rather a confined space formed by mud walls. All six walls displayed the regular, man-made angles of the walls, and a sticky, fishy smell hung in the air.

"The fire's pulsation is clearly here, how could it be gone?" A damp, sticky whisper echoed from beneath the black robe. He stuck his torch into the wall and ran his robe over the dirt, carefully feeling its thickness. But just then, a thunderous roar like muffled thunder erupted from behind the black-robed figure. He anxiously turned to see tons of earth falling from the ceiling, completely blocking his path.

"Oh no! It's a trap! When did I get exposed?" The black-robed man's heart tightened. At that moment, the ground beneath his feet suddenly shook. Cracks snaked across the ground, and seven prismatic rock cones burst forth. The thickest of them pierced the black-robed man's chest, but what gushed out wasn't blood, but a bubbling, asphalt-like substance.

"Rocks and spikes! There is a spellcaster nearby!" The man in black robe grabbed the rock spike and exerted force suddenly, and the hard spikes were crushed by his palm.

But more rock spikes followed, filling his entire body.

The black-robed man was pinned to the rock spike, his body already suspended in mid-air. He twisted his head with difficulty and said to the wall beside him, "You cunning fellow, you think you can kill me like this? Naive!"

With a snap, the black-robed figure's body suddenly collapsed into a pitch-like liquid, seeping into the cracks in the rock along the lines of the rock cones. The black slime flowed along the ground, recondensing into a human shape in the corner of the wall three meters away.

The man in black robe brushed off his spotless cuffs, and suddenly dozens of poisonous snakes with purple scales jumped out from the shadows at his feet.

The sound of breaking air came from under his feet, and another ground spike emerged. The man in black robe waved his sleeves, and the poisonous snakes under his feet entangled together to form a shield, crushing the attacking rock spikes into pieces!

"That's it? Why did it stop? Could it be that you are out of magic points? Then it's my turn." The man in black robe smiled coldly, and the group of snakes suddenly rushed towards the southwest wall like crazy, completely covering an area of ​​the wall.

The snake's belly secreted dirty liquid, which instantly melted the mud wall and created a three-foot square gap.

The black-robed man waved his hand, and a black snake immediately turned into a mud magic arrow and shot in through the gap.

The man in black robe was very confident. His black mud arrows looked ordinary, but they were incredibly fast and could break magic shields. Many mages had fallen victim to them.

But he didn't expect that the arrow he was aiming for missed the target and only hit the other side of the earth wall!
