Starting from primitive world, building the strongest divine kingdom

Chapter 182: The terrifying creature from Moon Tide



The creature had blood-red skin covered in pockmarks, as if it had been gnawed on by countless insects. On its forehead, it had a multitude of eyes, each with a different shape, and gazing at them made one\'s consciousness feel clouded.

At that time , he monster let out a roar.

Everyone snapped out of their daze and began to assess each other.

Finally, Quincy spoke up, "Everyone, let\'s put aside the issue of the Spatial Stone vein for now. We need to deal with this monster first, or we risk repeating the tragic events of the past."

No one opposed this.

Among those present, only Enzo looked puzzled.

He turned to Norma and asked, "What kind of monster is this?"

The monster\'s aura was indeed powerful, but it was far weaker compared to Norma. Since Torrian had the nerve to provoke Norma, it indicated that his strength was not far off from hers.

Yet both Norma and Torrian seemed particularly cautious, as if this monster could kill them at any moment.

Hearing Enzo\'s question, Norma replied, "This monster is one that only appears during Moon Tide. Its power may not seem overwhelming, but its abilities are very peculiar and difficult to handle. Even I could be severely injured or killed if I\'m not careful."

Enzo was taken aback.

So, this monster is from Moon Tide?

But isn\'t Moon Tide supposed to occur only at night?"

At this moment, Enzo realized the seriousness of the situation. Moon Tide seemed to have undergone a peculiar change once again.

Meanwhile, the crowd began to confront the terrifying monster.

Some unleashed fire tongues, others formed lightning with their hands, and some released wind blades. However, these powerful abilities dissipated instantly upon hitting the creature.

The expressions of the crowd grew even more grim.

Quincy couldn\'t help but curse, "Damn it, this monster\'s abilities seem to have become even stronger, and it\'s immune to more types of elemental energy. We can\'t continue like this! We must destroy the monster\'s body!"

With that, Quincy drew a metal spear and charged at the monster, aiming for its heart.

Thud!

A dull clanging sound rang out.

The monster\'s body seemed as if it were made of metal, and Quincy\'s spear had no effect. Others who had prepared to attack hesitated, their eyes filled with terror.

Many cried out in panic, "It\'s over! It\'s completely over!"

Quincy stumbled, instinctively trying to retreat.

Norma seized the opportunity to explain, "During a Moon Tide six years ago, several monsters appeared. These creatures were weaker than the current one, but they were immune to some elemental attacks, making them hard for many supernatural beings to harm."

"However, these monsters do have weaknesses."

"They have extremely fragile bodies; even a cut from an ordinary person can potentially kill them," Norma explained.

"But these monsters possess formidable close-combat abilities, and the souls of those killed by them are transformed into a special existence that can invade the soul world. Even supernatural beings are not exempt from this." she continued. "

Last time, over ten thousand people died in Dark Night Forest."

After Norma\'s explanation, Enzo understood the gravity of the situation.

This meant that if the current monster was not dealt with, the disaster from the past could very well repeat itself. The problem was that this monster seemed even stronger, and its weaknesses appeared to be gone.

Realizing this, Enzo instinctively activated The Eye of All Things.

His eyes radiated with a spectrum of colors, but in the chaos of the fleeing crowd, no one noticed.

Through The Eye of All Things, Enzo quickly observed something different.

He urgently called out to Norma, "Norma, attack the monster\'s legs directly. Remember, strike both its left and right legs simultaneously!"

Norma was puzzled but trusted Enzo.

With no time for further explanation, she let go of Enzo and dashed towards the monster.

As she approached, she created small spatial rifts to obstruct the monster\'s advance, then used her powers to control two stones from the ground, hurling them at the monster\'s legs simultaneously.

Crack, crack…

The sound of bones breaking echoed through the valley.

The monster emitted a strange sound again and then collapsed to the ground, seemingly unable to move.

Nearby, Enzo let out a sigh of relief and walked over to Norma.

Noticing this, the fleeing crowd stopped and began returning to the valley.

Enzo reached Norma\'s side and, facing the monster, suddenly extended his hand and easily reached into the monster\'s abdomen, pulling out a glowing, eerie-blue stone.

"Spatial Stone!"

Someone shouted.

But another voice quickly corrected, "No! This isn\'t an ordinary Spatial Stone; it\'s the essence of Spatial Stone, extremely precious. Even a whole vein of Spatial Stone wouldn\'t yield many of these."

This revelation ignited the crowd\'s greed.

They gathered around, especially Torrian, who didn\'t hide his intentions. "Kid, hand over that item. Such a treasure is not something a weakling like you should possess!"

Enzo ignored him and sarcastically said, "If I recall correctly, you were the first to flee just now, weren\'t you?"

Torrian\'s expression changed, especially when he heard the faint laughter. Enraged and embarrassed, he falsely accused, "Kid, you deliberately brought this monster here! Not only do you know the monster\'s weakness, but you also know that it has Spatial Stone essence inside it!!"

The crowd\'s gaze shifted slightly as they closed in on Enzo and Norma.

It was indeed hard to explain.

How did Enzo manage to handle the monster better than they could despite their collective experience.

There was clearly something suspicious.

Everyone firmly thought of it, and suddenly someone shouted, "Those two must be transformed by the Moon Tide monsters, aiming to destroy human forces! And the Blue Wolf Family is the best proof!"

Another person turned to Quincy, asking, "Quincy, what\'s your take on this?"

As a representative of Flamingo Merchants, Quincy looked at Norma and Enzo and said, "Norma and Enzo, for the safety of Flamingo Gathering Place, I need to verify your true identities. Also, since we discovered this secret realm first, the Spatial Stone essence should be shared among everyone."

This was a blatant excuse.

Enzo and Norma were extremely angry.

However, Norma suppressed her anger and said to Enzo, "Give them the item for now. Your strength isn\'t sufficient, and I can\'t guarantee your safety if they decide to act against you."

Enzo shook his head, "I\'ve never been one to hand over something I\'ve obtained."

Norma was taken aback but then heard Enzo whisper, "We\'ll head directly to the secret realm entrance."

Confused, Norma heard Enzo shout, "Run!"

Instinctively following him, Norma and Enzo dashed toward the now-closed secret realm entrance. At that moment, a special pattern appeared on Enzo\'s palm. As the pattern emerged, the previously closed entrance opened again, leaving the crowd stunned and their eyes burning with anticipation.

Torrian shouted, "Chase them!"

Although they didn\'t know why the secret realm entrance had reopened, they understood that its reopening meant they could enter the secret realm to search for the Spatial Stone veins.

And they also obtain the Spatial Stone essence Enzo held.

Inside the secret realm, Enzo and Norma ran for a while before finally stopping in front of a cave.

Norma, curious, asked, "Enzo, how did you manage to do that?"

Enzo revealed his palm, showing a spatial element pattern, and replied, "It\'s because of this. You might want to try recreating this pattern. It could significantly enhance your abilities."

Norma responded, "I\'ll give it a try once we\'re out of here."

She then jumped into a tree to survey the surroundings, before landing back on the ground and saying, "They haven\'t caught up yet. They might be searching for the Spatial Stone veins. Should we go back or also search for the veins?"

Enzo shook his head, "No, we should rest first. We\'re not going anywhere right now."

Seeing Norma\'s puzzled expression, Enzo explained, "The monster came from Moon Tide, which likely means this secret realm is connected to Moon Tide. Also, this pattern is a sign we need to pay attention to."

Norma looked at the Spatial Stone essence in Enzo\'s hand.

Before she could ask more, Enzo pressed the Spatial Stone essence into her hand. As her palm made contact with the essence, Norma suddenly heard a series of strange voices.

They were a jumble of sounds, with only fragments discernible.

Among the fragments, a few sentences made Norma ponder deeply:

[The great sovereign has passed away, and the world is about to fall into darkness. We pray for the arrival of light…]

[In the darkness, Moon Tide descends!]

[Those who hold the heart will be protected by the Moon Tide\'s subjects…]

After hearing this, Norma asked, "So this Spatial Stone essence is the heart of that monster, and the monster is a Moon Tide subject? Does this mean we will be protected?"

Everything was so bizarre that even Norma struggled to understand.

Enzo did not confirm or deny her interpretation but remained silent, as he had more information that he hadn\'t yet revealed.

Through The Eye of All Things, Enzo had seen even more.
