Chapter 291: Frenzied Mountain Ridge Giant Beasts
In the face of these rampaging giant beasts, even the weakest 3rd-Order Mountain Ridge Giant Beast posed a significant threat to the Alliance’s 4th-Order Awakeners, let alone the 3rd-Order Awakeners.
The number of Mountain Ridge Giant Beasts was not large. Under the full assault of the Demon Subduing Alliance’s experts, the 3rd-Order to 5th-Order Mountain Ridge Giant Beasts were quickly eliminated, leaving only a few dozen 6th-Order Mountain Ridge Giant Beasts and three 7th-Order Mountain Ridge Giant Beasts.
The 7th-Order Mountain Ridge Giant Beasts, in particular, were terrifying. Their massive, mountain-like bodies charged forward as if the heavens were collapsing and the earth itself was splitting apart. Even Sam and the other 7th-Order experts did not dare confront them head-on.
The 6th-Order Mountain Ridge Giant Beasts were not easy to kill either.
These terrifying Demonized Monsters were renowned for their incredible defenses and extraordinary toughness. Even when facing 7th-Order experts, they could hold out for a considerable amount of time.
Although Sam and the others fought with all their strength, they still appeared powerless against the Mountain Ridge Giant Beasts’ suicidal charge.
Boom!
The vast Demon Subduing City, standing before the 7th-Order Mountain Ridge Giant Beasts that towered tens of thousands of meters into the sky, was no more than an insignificant mound of dirt.
It was crushed into powder.
Two 7th Order Mountain Ridge Giant Beasts crossed over the ruins of Demon Subduing City and charged toward the heartland of the Demon Subduing Alliance.
Whenever they passed, the sky seemed to collapse and the earth cracked apart, as if the end of the world had arrived.
At that moment, Sam and the others had already finished off the 6th Order Mountain Ridge Giant Beasts and began pursuing the two 7th Order Mountain Ridge Giant Beasts. They attacked relentlessly, using every method at their disposal to slow the beast’s advance.
With nine 7th-Order experts attacking simultaneously, even the formidable defenses of the 7th-Order Mountain Ridge Giant Beasts could not completely withstand the assault. Their speed immediately decreased significantly.
However, the two 7th Order Mountain Ridge Giant Beasts were simply too durable. They could endure the full force attack of the nine experts for a considerable amount of time. By then, much of the Demon Subduing Alliance’s territory would likely be reduced to ruins, and even the rear cities would no longer be safe.
Sam and the others were extremely anxious.
If their territory suffered catastrophic damage, they would achieve nothing more than a fruitless victory.
How could they accept watching a glorious triumph turn into such a tragic outcome?
Yet, when the Mountain Ridge Giant Beasts fought with their lives on the line, they became terrifyingly powerful, leaving Sam and the others with few options.
"Sam."
At that moment, a calm voice echoed in Sam’s ears.
His spirits immediately lifted because he recognized the voice. It belonged to Noah.
Throughout the battle against the Mountain Ridge Giant Beasts, Noah had not made another move. Eliminating four 7th-Order Gray Demons had already consumed a portion of his energy. More importantly, the strongest 7th-Order Mountain Ridge Giant Beast, Mountain Ridge, had not joined the suicidal charge and had remained behind.
The Gravity Domain and Anti-Air abilities were both focused entirely on Noah.
Mountain Ridge understood clearly that Noah posed the greatest threat among all of them. Therefore, it had to keep Noah occupied so that the other Mountain Ridge Giant Beasts could inflict the maximum possible destruction upon the Demon Subduing Alliance.
Noah remained within his state of Absolute Defense, completely ignoring all damage directed at him.
However, the effects of Gravity Domain and Anti-Air still restricted him to some extent.
After all, Absolute Defense was not immune to every possible method.
Nor was Noah in any hurry to act.
He was not their nanny.
Having already killed four 7th Order Gray Demons, he had done more than enough for the Demon Subduing Alliance.
As Sam turned to look at him, Noah spoke without hesitation.
"I will help you take down one 7th Order Mountain Ridge Giant Beasts, along with this one. However, you must pay me now."
"Mr. Aryan, are you leaving?"
Sam was startled.
He immediately understood the implication behind Noah’s words.
After all, if Noah intended to remain with the Demon Subduing Alliance, there would be no reason to settle the payment so urgently.
Noah nodded without attempting to hide anything.
He truly had no intention of staying within the Demon Subduing Alliance any longer.
In fact, once this battle ended, he planned to leave the Remnant World altogether and would not return for a very long time.
At present, he still lacked the power necessary to destroy the Remnant World. His next priority would be finding ways to rapidly strengthen Blue Star and help humanity survive the Human-Level Calamity as soon as possible.
For now, the title of Enemy of Demonized Monsters was sufficient.
There was no longer any need for him to remain in the Remnant World.
Moreover, in Noah’s view, this battle against the Gray Demon Clan and the Mountain Ridge Giant Beasts was far from enough to accumulate the amount of war actions he needed. He was already planning to break out on his own and ignite an even larger war throughout the Remnant World.
Needless to say, the Demon Subduing Alliance would never follow him.
Their strength was limited, and they would not dare participate in a conflict of such magnitude. Otherwise, once Noah departed, their alliance would be left facing certain destruction.
Precisely because he understood this, Noah never brought up the matter. He intended to collect his payment and leave.
"Deal."
Sam did not know Noah’s true thoughts, but he knew one thing very well.
Noah’s strength was beyond anything they could imagine.
A person like him was never meant to remain within a small force like the Demon Subduing Alliance. Being able to maintain a period of friendship with such an individual was already a great fortune.
Noah said nothing further.
Boom!
An overwhelmingly terrifying aura erupted from Noah’s body as blood-colored flames engulfed the surrounding world.
Bloodline Liberation.
Destruction Form.
