World-saving Plan: The Only Savior-Chapter 564 - 441

Those were several towering figures, estimated to be about four or five meters tall.

From their appearance alone, they had a humanoid form, but they walked on all fours like gorillas, their thick arms supporting them on the ground.

There were a total of three of these beings, and from their robust silhouettes, one could tell that the strength contained within their muscles must have reached a terrifying level.

Zhang Xiaoman’s expression was serious as he watched them, with no time to worry about the Red Split Dogs that had run away, silently issuing commands for the Star Guards to prepare to face the enemy.

"Thud, thud, thud..."

A series of dull footsteps arose, causing the ground to tremble faintly, a sign that these monsters were probably heavier than imagined.

"Thud thud thud!"

The sound suddenly became more urgent, and as the distance closed, those three creatures quickened their pace and began to charge.

Facing three beings as tall as ancient tyrannosaurs, Xiao Man felt a slight shock in his heart but did not show the slightest sign of retreat. At the same time, he commanded the Star Guards to meet the charge.

First to act were the Star Shining Saint Knights, applying an old trick, one of them waved his hand and hurled a Light Hammer, two or three tens of meters large, at the three monsters.

However, this time was different from before; one of the three monsters suddenly stopped moving, raised its hands, and caught the attack, allowing its two companions to continue their charge.

The Star Guards were not to be outdone, quickly forming into formations and charging to meet their foes head-on.

The two Star Shining Saint Knights were not small in stature either, standing around 2.5 meters tall, but at the moment they seemed somewhat insignificant compared to the three monsters.

The Star Guards each summoned their warhorses, particularly the two in the front wearing golden Armor, which were quite tall.

Once the two knights mounted them, they towered significantly higher, reaching heights of over three meters, almost shoulder to shoulder with the monsters.

Both sides were melee brawlers, and the momentum of their charges was intense. The short distance of fifty meters was crossed almost in one or two breaths.

"Bang!"

A massive sound erupted as the two forces collided fiercely. Instantly, four or five Star Guards were sent flying.

Clearly, in such a head-to-head contest of strength, the Star Guards were no match for these naturally gigantic beings.

But the three monsters weren’t having an easy time either.

At the moment of contact, the two knights manifested a huge golden aura in front of their bodies, sharp as Long Spears, and immediately pierced one of the monster’s chests.

"Roar!"

The impaled monster let out a painful roar as a large handful of green, viscous blood flowed from its body. The wound was huge, indicating a very severe injury.

It was only then that Zhang Xiaoman could clearly see their appearance.

These were three humanoid monsters with dark green skin and hideous faces.

Their bodies were like foul mud swamps pieced together with countless pieces of trash, so repulsive that one more glance felt unbearably disgusting.

"No wonder I thought the air has been getting fouler since just now. It turns out you lot came over here."

Zhang Xiaoman glanced toward the nearby battlefield, then activated his Burst Spirit Skill, shooting a purple light beam at one of the monsters.

"Shh~"

A subtle sound whisked through the air as the Burst Spirit Skill accurately struck the monster’s head.

However, to his surprise, the decaying, swamp-like skin of the monster somehow managed to block his attack. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

Even though that skin was punctured massively, oozing the monster’s green blood.

Yet the attack of the Burst Spirit Skill, which would typically blow a head off, came to naught this time.

Zhang Xiaoman was somewhat astonished, silently lamenting the formidable defensive power of these creatures.

Not only could their thick skin ward off physical attacks, but they also exhibited a high resistance to Dark Energy attacks.

The monster, having had its hatred maxed out by Zhang Xiaoman’s strike, charged towards him with a furious momentum.

But just after taking a couple of steps, it was intercepted by over a dozen Star Guards.

Although the monster looked slow in its movements, its attack speed was anything but slow, its arms swinging like small trees, preventing the Star Guards from getting close for the moment.

Meanwhile, the monster previously impaled by a Star Shining Holy Knight, after struggling to its feet for a while, succumbed to severe physical strength loss. It was caught off-guard by another Holy Knight who pierced its head with a long spear, instantly collapsing to the ground, never to rise again.

The situation on the field tipped because of this.

What initially was two Holy Knights fighting two monsters, now turned into a two-on-one, leaving the remaining monster somewhat flustered.

"Roar!"

The monster being besieged by the Star Guards let out a fierce roar, suddenly grabbing a Star Guard who hadn’t managed to dodge in time and using him as a weapon to violently swing around, toppling a large group instantly.

Since the Star Guards were inherently weaker than the Holy Knights, it was already a challenge for two Holy Knights to suppress one monster. Now with only eleven Star Guards left on the field, they were clearly no match for the remaining one.

By this time, some damage had occurred on Zhang Xiaoman’s side as well.

A few Star Guards were shattered by the monster or had used up all their repair energy after multiple attacks, promptly dissipating into specks of light and vanishing.

However, Zhang Xiaoman was not particularly concerned about this.

Now that the skill had been upgraded to the purple Second Rank, its cooling time had been reduced, allowing him to summon new Star Guards at any moment for reinforcement.

Over there, the monster that had been sneak-attacked in the head seemed quite stubborn, not forgetting its grudge even at this point.

It had barely extricated itself from the encirclement of Star Guards and, without hesitation, started charging towards Zhang Xiaoman.

Seeing this, a cold light flashed across Zhang Xiaoman’s face. He took a quick glance at the Sword Array about to disappear and decided not to drag on any further, opting for a quick resolution.

His hand initiated Dark Energy Shock, calling upon the fully drained skill he had stored in the Time Imprint before.

At the same time, preparing for Bounce Five Flashes, he swung a punch towards the monster that had already charged into close proximity.

Seeing the insignificant creature in front of it not dodging, but rather engaging in a brute force clash with itself, a glimmer of light passed through the monster’s eyes.

Although its simple mind couldn’t comprehend why the opponent was acting so foolishly,

it didn’t prevent the monster from feeling a rush of excitement, as if it could flatten the sneaky attacker before it the very next moment.
