Chapter 1265: The Monster Reappears
November 24, 2017
At the Capital Military Camp in Chang'an City, outside the mega funnel guarded by hundreds of thousands of troops...
A monster over two meters tall, covered in white bones from head to toe, with three white bone spikes protruding from its back and a white bony tail dragging behind, its orange skin barely visible beneath the white skeletal armor, was charging forward ferociously!
This was the very same monster that Lu Hai Kong had encountered in Ji Province not long ago. After nearly two months of absence, the monster's combat strength had increased significantly since their last encounter.
Previously, in Ji Province, the monster had already possessed strength close to the Over Hundred Rank. After being outmaneuvered by that cunning fox, its power not only remained undiminished but had grown even stronger. By the time it reappeared, its strength had fully reached the Over Hundred Rank.
Its terrifying strength, coupled with an incredibly sturdy bone armor, made it invulnerable to the hundreds of thousands of soldiers, let alone the brave generals among them.
As for stopping it, that was out of the question. Even a horde of ten thousand monster beasts couldn't halt its advance, let alone the current formation.
The defensive formation of hundreds of thousands of troops was like paper to the monster, easily torn apart with a casual swipe.
However, something was amiss with the monster. It seemed to have lost all intelligence, driven solely by a primal instinct to kill.
"What is this thing? It has highly concentrated demonic energy and fire essence energy within its body, and that mark on its forehead... Could it be that legendary item? I've never seen such a combination before."
Qin Mu was taken aback by the slaughtering monster, but soon regained his composure. With great interest, he scrutinized the monster from head to toe, only to eventually avert his gaze.
Admittedly, the monster was peculiar, but Qin Mu's attention was elsewhere. After a quick glance, he refocused on the mega funnel, unconcerned about the monster's potential disruption to his plans. Someone would take care of it!
"Beast, cease your rampage!"
As expected, three brave generals emerged to confront the monster: Hua Xiong, Zhang Xiu, and the one-armed warrior.
It was no wonder Qin Mu felt assured. Each of these three generals possessed a strength of 99, slightly inferior to the monster individually, but together, they could challenge even the Over Hundred Rank. Moreover, Lu Bu was also on his way.
With these four, the monster, no matter how formidable, would be subdued.
However, just as Qin Mu turned away, his expression changed abruptly. "Something's wrong with that monster!"
Qin Mu realized that the situation beneath the mega funnel had shifted with the monster's arrival, but before he could grasp the change, the monster had already broken through Hua Xiong and the others' defense and charged towards him!
"Impossible! That beast's strength is at most on par with the Over Hundred Rank. How could it defeat the three generals so quickly?"
Qin Mu turned back in disbelief. When he saw the wounds on the monster, he finally understood why it had broken through so swiftly.
In reality, that guy hadn't defeated Hua Xiong and his men; he managed to break through so quickly only because he never engaged them in battle. Instead, he withstood their attacks head-on and charged straight for the giant funnel.
Qin Mu hadn't anticipated this situation, and now he was in a dilemma. He wasn't sure if he should take down that monster, as it wasn't truly aligned with Dong Zhuo's group. This guy had too many schemes, and even now, he had his reservations.
In fact, he didn't need to worry about this at all. From the start, the monster had no intention of facing him.
Although the monster had completely lost its sanity, it seemed to retain some innate instincts.
For instance, it instinctively sensed that the giant funnel contained something extremely beneficial to it. Furthermore, despite not engaging Qin Mu, the monster clearly understood that it was no match for him. It even vaguely sensed an overwhelming sense of terror from Qin Mu's presence.
So, without approaching Qin Mu, the monster unleashed its fastest speed and circled around him, rushing straight for the giant funnel.
"Interesting, it avoided me. Is that animal instinct?"
Qin Mu touched his nose, hesitated for a moment, and ultimately decided against pursuing it.
"Forget it. Let that beast go in if it wants to. As for me, my objective has been achieved, and any unexpected variables won't be my concern."
The monster had no idea that it was able to get close to the giant funnel solely because of Qin Mu's momentary hesitation.
If Qin Mu had taken action, even if the monster had circled far away, it would have been impossible for it to get near the giant funnel!
However, although Qin Mu's hesitation allowed the monster to approach the giant funnel, it didn't mean it could enter easily. This plan was under Dong Zhuo's close watch, and even if Qin Mu didn't act, someone else would!
Just as the monster was about to reach the giant funnel, a terrifying military might suddenly converged.
In an instant, the military might of hundreds of thousands of troops coalesced like a colossal arm, crushing the monster on the spot!
At that moment, Lu Bu finally appeared, his Heaven-Spanning Halberd raised. In the blink of an eye, he arrived before the monster.
"Die, you evil lord!" Lu Bu roared, and a terrifying demonic aura surged from him. With unmatched ferocity, he swung his halberd towards the monster's head!
"Pfft!" With a single powerful strike from Lu Bu, who was at the Over Hundred Rank, the monster's head was severed.
Witnessing this, Qin Mu was momentarily stunned and chuckled, "Oh, it seems that even with my leniency, this beast couldn't make it in. It's a bit of a pity; I wanted to see what interesting things would happen if it got in."
As soon as Qin Mu finished speaking, his expression changed slightly, "Wait, that's odd. It seems something interesting is happening!"
Just as Qin Mu spoke, the monster's head, like a cannonball, exploded into the giant funnel...
