296 Beast Gargoyle King
A few kilometers away from the [God Ruins],
“What did you say? He entered into the [God Ruins]?”
A huge Beast Gargoyle’s eyes shone with a red light as he asked his subordinates, “It looks like luck is on my side today. Not only that b*stard is inside the [God Ruins], but the entrance of the [God Ruins] that I have been waiting for, has been opened.”
Soon, the Beast Gargoyle King revealed a beastly smile as he thought his waiting had been paid off.
As one of the Supreme-ranked Monsters who established his own territory in the Uncleared Land, the Beast Gargoyle King had found the entrance to the [God Ruins] a while back.
However, since the Monsters and the Mutated Beasts could not open the entrance to the [God Ruins], the Beast Gargoyle King could only wait for one of the humans to open it.
That’s why he even put a few beast gargoyles to secretly observe it and the moment the entrance to the [God Ruins] opens, they should use their skills to keep the entrance open until he arrives.
However, who would have thought that someone he wanted to capture rushed into the [God Ruins] to hide?
If it was not Luck what is it?
“Let’s go.”
Without any hesitation, the Beast Gargoyle King picked a dozen rank 9 Beast Gargoyles along with dozens of rank 8 and rank 7 Beast Gargoyles and rushed towards the entrance of the [God Ruins].
The more Beast Gargoyles he brings into the [God Ruins], the sooner he could find the treasure and the b*stard he wanted to capture.
Therefore, he was bringing half of his high-level subordinates into the [God Ruins].
…...
Inside the [God Ruins],
“Aren’t you going to say thank you for saving your lives?”
Leo asked them in a cold voice which sent shivers to the Gargoyles.
“Thank you, Talent Swallowing Hero”
Nevertheless, Leo’s words made them come out of their thoughts as they hurriedly thanked Leo before saving their lives.
They knew the Talent Swallowing Hero was different from the other humans who kill the mutated beasts and the monsters as soon as they see them.
According to what they know, other than Manticores, the Talent Swallowing Hero didn’t bother to kill the monsters and the mutated beasts unless they provoked him first.
Moreover, there was also a rumour that he would occasionally save the monsters and mutated beasts.
‘It looks like the rumour was right!’
The dozen rank 9 Beast Gargoyles felt lucky and grateful that the entrance to the [God Ruins] was opened by the Talent Swallowing Hero.
If it was any other human, they would have waited until that Supreme-ranked beast killed them before taking action.
‘Roar’
‘Growl’
As the Beast Gargoyles were in their thoughts about the Talent Swallowing Hero, they heard roars and growls of the beasts from the distance.
“Sh*t. That b*stard is definitely planning to kill us.”
“What should we do now? From the roars and growls alone, those beasts seemed like they were of supreme rank.”
“Those beasts will hunt us down no matter where we run. We have to find a way to survive.”
The Beast Gargoyles were scared and they knew they could not escape from the incoming supreme-ranked beasts.
Soon, they looked at the masked hero and decided to risk asking for help from him.
Even though the Talent Swallowing Hero saved them once, they knew it was not guaranteed that he would save them again and again.
“Sir Talent Swallowing Hero, can you please help us in killing those Supreme-ranked beasts?”
One of the Beast Gargoyles asked after some hesitation.
“Help you in killing? I didn’t hear you clearly?”
Leo asked Beast Gargoyle in a cold voice, making the other Beast Gargoyles shiver.
“Yes. Please help….”
‘Pak’
Before the Beast Gargoyle could finish his words, another Beast Gargoyle slapped the first Beast Gargoyle’s head and said, “Sir Talent Swallowing Hero, please protect us. We will ask our majesty to repay you in some way or the other.”
“Today, I am in a good mood. So, I will help you.”
Leo smiled under his mask as he agreed to protect them.
“Thank you, Sir Talent Swallowing Hero.”
They heaved a sigh of relief when they heard Leo agreed to protect them with a simple line.
Even though they thought the Talent Swallowing Hero had other thoughts in protecting them, the Beast Gargoyles didn’t bother much about it and decided to take his protection.
‘It looks like my plan is going smoothly.’
Leo silently thought in his mind as he looked at the incoming horde of the Monsters and Beasts from the distance.
Just like the Beast Gargoyles thought, Leo was not protecting them out of kindness; instead, he had other plans.
Initially, Leo thought he would be wasting his time in searching for each monster and beast; however, learning that whoever these Beast Gargoyles were chasing had the ability to curse his enemies, Leo’s interest piqued.
‘I will find out who they were chasing after I take care of these incoming Supreme-ranked monsters and beasts.’
Since Leo wanted to increase his undead army while using [Absolute Devour] to condense some Talent/Skill Crystals for himself and his followers, Leo wanted the Beast Gargoyles to be alive.
In his eyes, the Beast Gargoyles are the baits for him and he had to protect them until all the beasts and monsters in the [God Ruins] were killed.
[Absolute Devour]
Leo was not worried about showcasing his ability to devour the corpse through his left palm in front of the Beast Gargoyles.
‘Munch’
‘Ding,
The host devoured a Fire Behemoth using [Absolute Devour].
After the talent [Absolute Devour] upgraded to Supreme-grade, Leo could devour the corpses from a distance and the devouring speed was also so fast that it took less than five seconds for the Devil Mouth to devour the huge behemoth.
‘Gulp’
Seeing that scene, the Beast Gargoyles swallowed as they kept some distance away from the Talent Swallowing Hero.
Even though they already have kinds of rumors about the Talent Swallowing Hero, they finally saw how scary the Talent Swallowing Hero rally was.
Such a huge Fire Behemoth was consumed by him in less than five seconds, they were only one meter in height, and it won’t even take a second for the Talent Swallowing Hero to devour them.
That’s what they thought in their heads.
‘Cough’
After a few seconds, the devil’s mouth coughed a small red-coloured crystal.
‘What? Getting a talent/skill crystal on the first beast I consumed?’
Leo was surprised when he saw the crystal; however, he didn’t bother to check it and stored it in the storage ring before focusing on the incoming beasts and monsters.
“Let’s start the massacre.”
Soon, Leo started his war god’s battle axe and started killing them while the Beast Gargoyles hid behind Leo.
‘Shall we start searching for him?’
‘Idiot. Do you think it is a good idea? The moment we leave the Talent Swallowing Hero’s side, we will be hunted again.’
Even though they wanted to search for their target, the Beast Gargoyles didn’t dare to leave Leo’s side.
…..
‘Who is a human helping them?’
From afar, a pair of eyes watched Leo anxiously.
