World-saving Plan: The Only Savior-Chapter 574 - 449 Fallen Angel (Two-in-One)
Chapter 574: Chapter 449 Fallen Angel (Two-in-One)
In the vast underground space, a group of menacing monsters with ugly faces were lurking around a gigantic figure.
The figure was enormous, its head almost reaching the top of the underground cave.
Its appearance was also terrifying, with many festering wounds on its body revealing black bones underneath.
The skin on the outside was a ghastly pale color, like wrinkled paper, sending shivers down one’s spine.
Above its skull, six blood-red eyes gazed in six different directions.
Just witnessing this scene alone could probably bring even the faint-hearted to tears.
However, what was incredibly eerie was the fact that this monster, as ugly as a demon, actually had a pair of wings as white as snow.
Around those wings, bits of phosphorescence would occasionally appear, seeming utterly holy.
This sight, combined with the creature’s horrifying appearance, was extremely bizarre and discordant.
At this moment, the monster’s mouth full of sharp teeth was opening and closing, as if it were chanting the string of name-like words it had just pronounced.
As its last syllable fell, a powerful Dark Energy Fluctuation diffused outwards from its center.
The surrounding walls also begun to tremble, with debris falling from above, presenting a scene that seemed on the brink of collapse.
"Aaagh!!"
The monster suddenly let out a piercing roar, its facial expression twisted in agony. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com
The next second, the phosphorescence that originally surrounded it abruptly dimmed, turning into billows of black mist.
Immediately after, its skin began to yellow and darken, and on its huge wings, a small patch of decaying spots suddenly appeared.
As the spots spread, its entire wings altered in appearance, losing their holy aura and instead transforming into a pair of black, filthy wings.
Just like that, within a matter of seconds, the monster had morphed into a terrifying demon with grey skin and black wings.
It now resembled more and more the angels from the legends, only it was an example of the opposite—a Fallen Angel.
Zhang Xiaoman, watching from above through the Field of View of the Star Shining Saint Knight, had observed the whole scene, and his heart was shaking with unspeakable horror.
It wasn’t until a large stone fell, blocking the Saint Knight’s Field of View, that he brought his attention back up.
Looking around, he saw Lin Sisi’s face etched with worry.
Zhang Xiaoman stroked her hair and smiled, "Silly girl, what’s there to worry about? I’m back, aren’t I?"
Lin Sisi looked in his direction.
"Brother Xiao Man, did you encounter some trouble? I felt like you were in a hurry just now..."
Zhang Xiaoman shook his head.
"It’s okay, it was just an unwelcome guest that showed up; we’ve pretty much completed today’s task. You go back to Rebirth Island first, and leave the rest to me."
Although Lin Sisi wanted to know what had happened, she also knew it wasn’t the time to ask questions. After telling him to be careful and saying a few more words, she used the Starry Stone to return.
Upon seeing this, Zhang Xiaoman also immediately ordered the members below to return first.
If that monster were to break out, such a battle wasn’t something they were currently equipped to engage in.
Meanwhile, on the ground, the warriors of the Azure Dragon Army were cleaning up the battlefield after their fight with the monsters.
Besides taking care of the injured, they also had to collect and organize the scattered equipment.
"Commander, the fourth squad has finished cleaning. All the injured are safe and waiting for the next order!"
"Commander, the sixth squad has also completed the mission. We’re prepared and ready to go; please give instructions!"
"Commander..."
One after another, five or six people ran over, reporting their progress to the operation’s commander, Chang Hai.
Hearing their reports and glancing at the several Transcendents who were cleansing the bodies not far away, Chang Hai nodded and ordered:
"At ease! Everyone head back and stand by. Once all the squads have completed the cleanup, we will move out towards the underground cave, aiming to eradicate the giant cocoon in one fell swoop."
"Yes, sir!"
The men snapped to attention, saluted, and were about to turn and leave when a man in white Daring Clothes approached them.
It was Su Changqing.
"Captain Chang, we’ve just received word from the organization that the Dimension Rift underground has been sealed by our people, and the white cocoon has also been successfully destroyed..."
As he spoke, the group of warriors halted their departure and turned around, looking at him with astonished expressions.
Chang Hai’s face too was filled with surprise; he hadn’t expected that their side was just about to head over when the Transcendents informed them that they had already resolved the situation.
"This... Are you saying the underground crisis has been averted? Can we return now?"
Chang Hai suddenly felt a sense of emptiness; they had prepared so much stuff on their side, and before they even entered the "map," the target was already gone?
It wasn’t that he wanted to have a battle with the monsters.
On the contrary, he preferred this outcome.
After all, fighting these Alien Species was very risky, especially in that lightless underground environment; casualties would be inevitable.
Being able to complete the mission without a fight, as it was now, of course, he was more than happy.
