Chapter 1639 Chapter 1458: Final Clash 4
"Despicable vermin!"
Accompanied by a furious growl, a colossal silhouette emerged from the mist. As the fog cleared, the true form of the creature was revealed to all - a towering giant, standing over 60 meters tall. At first glance, it resembled a gorilla draped in shimmering golden fur, but what truly sent chills down the spine was the massive eye positioned in the center of its forehead. Its gargantuan mouth, stretching from ear to ear, was enough to instill immense terror in anyone who gazed upon it. However, the most striking feature was the long, razor-sharp horn that protruded from its forehead, resembling that of a majestic unicorn.
In the presence of this monstrosity, even the radiant golden-clad holy knights appeared no larger than insignificant insects. Witnessing the creature's emergence, the knights swiftly turned on their heels and fled towards the safety of the city walls. It was evident that they knew engaging this behemoth head-on would be futile. But as soon as the giant caught sight of their escape, it erupted in anger, breaking through the dissipating fog and giving chase with a thunderous snarl.
"Halt... right there!"
Stepping out of the chaotic mist, the colossal creature diminished in size, yet still stood as tall as a 10 to 20-story building. The Horned Behemoth bellowed and advanced, its movements appearing slow and clumsy from a distance. However, this was merely an illusion, for in a matter of moments, the Horned Behemoth closed in on the knights, obliterating the Chaos creatures in its path. Whether friend or foe, the Horned Behemoth had its sights set solely on these minuscule, gleaming humans.
"Now, brethren! Let our unwavering faith summon forth the most sacred being! May the radiance of the knights envelop this world!"
The lead holy knight, adorned in white, bellowed with determination. Leaping over the carcass of a Chaos creature, he cast a glance back at the approaching Horned Behemoth. Upon hearing his call, the other knights trailing closely behind swiftly came to a halt. Following the example of their white-clad leader, the knights raised their weapons high and shouted in unison.
In an instant, a radiant golden glow enveloped the surroundings. As the knights unleashed their resounding cries, beams of golden light erupted from their beings, shooting upwards and converging as a single entity. In the blink of an eye, a spectral image materialized in the sky, depicting a knight mounted on a warhorse as colossal as the Horned Behemoth itself. Confronting the approaching behemoth, the towering golden knight spurred the horse forward, spear pointed directly at the enemy, and crouched slightly. With a burst of speed, the warhorse lunged towards the Horned Behemoth, launching a mid-air assault. And in that very instant, the golden knight's form solidified completely, indistinguishable from a corporeal presence.
"You insolent fools! How dare you provoke me. Prepare to face my wrath!"
As the golden knight charged towards the Horned Behemoth, the enraged creature swung its left arm, attempting to strike a blow.
Clink!
The knight's razor-sharp spear collided with the behemoth's palm, but the immense force behind the attack failed to cause significant damage. In a thunderous clash, the spear and the behemoth's palm clashed, but the behemoth quickly retaliated by grabbing hold of the knight's weapon and launching a powerful punch with its right fist.
Bang!
The behemoth's punch landed on the golden knight's massive defensive shield, yet the knight stood firm, undeterred. The two forces reached a stalemate, locked in a battle of strength. The golden knight's radiance intensified, conjuring dazzling fireballs that encircled him. The fireballs expanded and launched themselves towards the Horned Behemoth.
"Roarrr———!"
The moment the behemoth made contact with the golden flames, it let out a cry of anguish. The flames inflicted significant damage upon it. However, the Horned Behemoth refused to retreat. Recognizing the power of the golden flames, it raised its head, emitting a deafening roar. Bolts of blinding lightning erupted from the razor-sharp horn on its forehead, aiming directly at the golden knight.
The lightning bolts clashed with the engulfing flames, creating a spectacular display of electricity and fire. The battlefield became a maelstrom of energy, repelling any nearby chaos creatures, obliterating them instantly.
"This creature never learns," Alex mused, a smile playing on his lips. It was undeniable that the Horned Behemoth posed a formidable challenge among the Chaos Lords.
The Horned Behemoth may have been a fearsome and destructive creature, but it possessed a simple and easily manipulated nature. While it had the potential to cause widespread devastation if harnessed correctly, its chaotic tendencies made it a liability. The behemoth's unpredictable nature posed a significant threat not only to its enemies but also to its allies.
Its lack of intelligence and susceptibility to manipulation meant that it could easily be turned against its own side. The behemoth's actions could lead to unintended consequences and collateral damage, putting its allies at risk. Despite its raw power, the Horned Behemoth's unreliability made it a ticking time bomb in any battle.
It was a shame that such a formidable force had such inherent flaws. If it could be controlled and directed effectively, the Horned Behemoth could have been an unstoppable weapon. However, its chaotic nature made it a danger to everyone around it, making it more of a liability than an asset. f𝗿𝚎eweb𝗻o𝐯𝐞l.𝚌om
Alright, it's time to put our plan into action.
"Prepare yourselves," Alex whispered to his group, his voice barely audible. He reached out and clasped the cross-shaped emblem hanging from his chest. In an instant, his body blurred and seamlessly blended into the surroundings. His group followed suit, disappearing into the shadows cast by the city wall.
"Stick to the plan and coordinate with 'Jeff' and his team. The golden knight won't hold on much longer!"
Despite the Horned Behemoth and the valiant efforts of the golden knight, the Chaos creatures kept charging forward relentlessly. Most of these creatures were humanoid, resembling towering gorillas with various twisted features. Some had the heads of snakes, while others had limbs reminiscent of reptiles. With wild howls, they surged ahead, only to be swiftly consumed and obliterated by bolts of lightning and waves of flames.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
