Chapter 175 Evil Object - Pillar of Flesh and Blood!
Under the lonely peak.

In a newly built simple office, Sean saw the succubus Veronica rushing in.

He had just settled the Observer-Kuradirs. This dragon was not suitable for living with humans, so it was better to let it stay with the No. 1 Sealed Object Mechanical Brain. This way, the next time he saw it, maybe it would become much more obedient.

"Owner."

Succubus Veronica whispered, "There were a lot of people stealing and robbing last night. How should we deal with them?"

"According to the laws of Abyss City, or according to the laws of the human kingdom?"

Theft? Robbery?
Upon hearing this, Xiao En's brows instantly furrowed, and a hint of murderous intent emerged. Didn't he just leave for a day to go to Abyss City to get some things, and someone actually dared to commit suicide on his territory?
He said expressionlessly, "Take me to see it."

Xiao En wanted to see who was so arrogant and dared to act lawlessly in his demiplane.

five minutes later.

A group of refugees dressed in silken clothes were brought over by Terra priests like chicks. There were one or two extraordinary people among them, but they were very weak. The first or second level warlocks could only cast some small spells, and the powerful blood warlocks all exploded during the ceremony. Behind them was a group of ragged people, both men and women, but mostly women, and mothers holding children. They didn't dare to look up, and knelt on the ground as soon as they entered the hall, their thin figures trembling slightly.

In the final moments of the Ring City disaster, many adult men protected their wives and children and rushed out of the zombie siege, so there were many women who survived in the end, and some fathers and husbands gave them the hope of survival.

"Are they the ones?" Xiao En looked down at the group of nobles who were kneeling on the ground in fear.

Because the demiplane accepted too many refugees from the Ring City at once, all relief supplies were distributed per person, with all adults treated equally and children given half the food. Because it was unknown when the Ring City would return to normal, Xiao En had to save some supplies and temporarily maintain a level where everyone could barely eat. The demiplane still needed to be reclaimed and developed, so Xiao En couldn't distribute all the food. The whole incident was not complicated. These people dressed as nobles directly robbed the food and supplies of the poor, and even beat and seriously injured several women who resisted.

"My Lord... they offered it to us voluntarily..."

A middle-aged noble in his forties trembled and argued cunningly: "Besides, they all owe us a debt, and the food is just used to repay their past debts..."

Xiao En looked down at the group of people in front of him with cold eyes, then turned his gaze to the middle-aged woman with blood on her forehead. She was holding a child of three or four years old in her arms. She lowered her head, remained silent, and her dull eyes were gray.

She was not good at speaking and didn't even know how to refute because they were indeed burdened with loan sharks.

Bully the inferiors and flatter the superiors.

The greed of human nature was fully revealed at this moment, and Amon won again.

Xiao En calmly raised a finger. He didn't have the energy to waste on these trivial matters. As his finger lightly tapped, the middle-aged noble's head exploded instantly, like an exploding watermelon. Brain matter and blood splattered everywhere, scaring the other luxuriously dressed nobles around him to scream in fear.

"Execute all these people."

Xiao En turned around and waved his hand, saying, "Stealing, according to the law of Abyss City, everyone will have one left hand chopped off."

"Press them down."

A desperate wail of begging for mercy sounded, but Xiao En ignored it and turned to look at the succubus Veronica beside him and said, "In troubled times, severe punishments are needed."

"All crimes above robbery are punishable by death."

"Leave the body to the warden for disposal."

Xiao En paused for a moment and said in a deep voice, "Let everyone else go and watch the execution."

When they rescued people, they didn't distinguish between commoners and nobles. As long as they were alive, they would be saved. Xiao En had thought that something similar would happen, but he didn't expect it to happen so soon. The nobles around the city were not all dead, and some of them escaped. They used to boss the poor around, and after fleeing here, they actually thought it was natural to take away everything from them. Xiao En would not indulge them. From the moment he took over Amon's true name, he was destined to break all the existing order and rules of the weird kingdom.

Whatever they had been, they were criminals now.

When being dragged out, a fat noble who had been promoted to a transcendent wanted to resist and escape. He was going to die anyway, so he broke free of his restraints and pushed through the crowd. But this was Sean's demiplane, and he had no way to escape. He had only taken a few steps when a cloaked gray dwarf swung his warhammer, and with a crisp bang, his head was instantly smashed to pieces.

"Pooh."

The gray dwarf walked over slowly, picked up the heavy war hammer, lifted the fat headless corpse with his foot, waved his hand and said, "Move the body away."

"Send someone over to clean it up."

The Terra priests recruited in Abyss City are basically above level 10, and there are many high-level professionals among them. They are not serious priests, but they are very good at fighting. The extraordinary people who dare to hang out in the weird country, if they don't have some skills, have already died. There is only one supply point in Abyss City for thousands of kilometers in the entire southern continent. Those who can come back alive after going out are all good adventurers.

Thirty-two people were executed that day.

However, killing cannot completely solve the problem. Xiao En must set up an administrative team as soon as possible. The demiplane cannot accommodate so many people. Their food, drink, defecation and urination are all problems. It is necessary to send some of them back to the real country as soon as possible.

Vallon Rift Valley.

This is one of the battlefields of the Dark Age. A rift valley thousands of kilometers long runs through the north and south. Deep in the rift valley, there is a passage leading directly to the underground world. Some powerful evil creatures have built nests here. There are three habitats of the Old Ones around, namely the Brain Splitter, the Body Snatcher, and the Shadow Crawler. The life forms of the Old Ones are often affected by the indescribable Old Ones. No matter what race you used to be, you will be slowly assimilated by them, and even at the cost of death, a new life form will be bred on the old body.

This is also one of the areas where the Pillars of Flesh and Blood frequently move around.

The extraordinary relics circulating in the Abyss City market are basically collected by killing monsters outside. Xiao En definitely cannot afford to buy so many promotion relics, so he can only think of a way near the monster's nest.

"Pooh!"

Mordin Hammerheart swung his war hammer to smash a section of dark red flesh that emerged from the ground, spitting out blood and saying, "This damn thing is disgusting."

"I can't kill him no matter what."

The Touch of Flesh and Blood can transfer damage to the huge body underground, so if you want to hunt them, you must uproot them. However, the Touch of Flesh and Blood are branches of the huge underground flesh and blood pillars, just like capillaries throughout the earth. Killing too many of them will attract huge monsters deep underground.

boom!
Yvonne Tanner held the Infernal Roaring Hand Cannon in his hand and blasted the roots of Flesh Touch with one shot. Hearing this, he shrugged and said, "Stop complaining."

"The big guy is about to come out."

There were more than 20 reconnaissance magic eyes suspended in the air scattered across the battlefield. The Terra priests from the Abyss City were dispersed in teams of five. In the sky were flying demon warlocks who were ready to support others at any time. The Holy Terra Church had grown to a size of nearly 10,000 people, of which there were estimated to be 200 to 300 capable of exterminating evil creatures, most of whom were at the tenth level of the extraordinary. This strength was considered mid-range in the Abyss City, and the number of high-level extraordinary people was still a bit small.

"Is there really a pipe to the Pillar of Flesh and Blood underneath?" asked a bearded barbarian.

The gray dwarf next to him raised his battle axe and chopped it down, adding another pile of rotten meat to the messy battlefield. He said in a deep voice: "We'll know whether it works or not in a moment."

Rumble!
The ground began to shake and part of the soil bulged up, as if some huge monster was about to rush out.

"Prepare to evacuate!"

"The Pillar of Flesh is coming out."

A female telepathic message sounded directly in their brains, giving orders: "The Forerunners will hold back the monsters on the right." "The Warlocks will prepare for a fire bombing."

"The Martyrs Chapter is the last one left."

A shining crystal construct was suspended in the sky above the entire battlefield. The five-man team could communicate directly by speaking, but other teams scattered on the battlefield needed to rely on a crystal wonder to connect to the mental network and keep in touch with other battle groups in this way.

More than 200 people on the battlefield began to retreat in an orderly manner. With the help of the mental network, the communication ability of the entire regiment was close to the modern level. Except for the barbarians who were killing madly and entered a violent state, most people could follow orders.

"Bring out the Barbarians and Berserkers! Damn it! These guys are killing like crazy again!"

An exasperated female voice sounded, and the figure of the succubus Veronica flew across the sky, directly using a violent charm to dominate the flesh and blood deformities on the battlefield, giving the barbarians time to evacuate.

Not far away, Xiao En watched all this with an expressionless face, silently recording in his magic notebook: "Barbarian Path cannot be mixed into other war groups."

"Once they start going berserk, it's hard for them to follow orders."

There were almost no serious casualties in the entire battle, because he was in charge personally, the purpose was to give these followers a training and try small-scale legionary combat. Because the flesh and blood touch suddenly emerged from the ground and lashed and entangled nearby creatures crazily, the war group had to disperse and act, just in time to test the stability of the mental network he arranged.

"As long as the psychic power is not higher than mine, it is basically impossible to interfere with the mental communication network I have opened."

"The command system is relatively stable during wartime."

Just as Xiao En thought of this, suddenly a sharp scream sounded in his mind network, and many people held their heads and screamed in pain. It was the mental whisper of an evil creature that directly invaded the mind network and was transmitted synchronously to everyone's brain.

Oh shit.

The enemy cannot interfere with the stability of the mind network, but can use a large range of mind screams to forcibly interrupt the communication. Xiao En's mind network is still there, but the sound of the mind scream is too sharp, and he can't hear the voices of others at all.

——Mind Fortress!
Xiao En instantly raised his hand to cast a spell, and a mental fortress blocked the whispering in his heart. Then his figure flashed out, and the moment he touched the ground, the power of the law of the 'Lord of the Underground' began to condense.

Rumble!
In the rift ahead, an area of ​​dozens of meters suddenly rose up and turned into a high slope. The next second, a huge mouth covered with sharp teeth emerged, and a behemoth with a diameter of about five meters rushed out of the ground. Its dark red skin was covered with wriggling tentacles on both sides, like the centipede of a death worm.

——Pillar of Flesh and Blood [Evil Thing] (CR 18)!
This huge evil creature that broke out of the ground was about 120 meters long, and there were even longer flesh and blood tubes underground. It drilled out of the ground like an earthworm, spanning a distance of nearly 100 meters. While chasing other people, its sharp mouthparts crushed rocks like cutting tofu, and drilled its head back into the ground.

"Attack the body that's exposed above the ground!"

The demon warlocks on both sides of the battlefield began to cast spells. At once, dozens of spells turned into shining flames and fell on the body of the Pillar of Flesh and Blood. Amid the rumbling explosions, blood spilled all over the sky, but the wounds left behind would disappear quickly. The Pillar of Flesh and Blood possessed a powerful regenerative ability, and most of the injuries could be transferred to the body underground.

"Is this damn thing so thick-skinned and tough?" Mordin Hammerheart dodged while raising the Inferno Roar hand cannon to fight back.

The rune bullet exploded with a roar, and hit the flesh and blood pit with a diameter of about one meter.

An ordinary superhuman would die instantly if hit by one bullet, but the Pillar of Flesh and Blood could withstand dozens of bullets without any harm. The countless holes in the flesh and blood were transferred to other places due to the damage.

This damn thing has no fatal weaknesses and is almost immune to any serious attacks.

The body of the Pillar of Flesh and Blood withstood dozens of spells as if nothing had happened. Its body began to split apart, and a large number of flesh and blood tentacles split out from the centipedes on both sides. When these tentacles came into contact with the blood on the ground, the corpse quickly distorted and grew rapidly, turning into dark red dancing tentacles that were three or four meters long.

They possess power close to that of the shadow black tentacles, but they are not created by magic, but rather animated flesh and blood.

——Advanced acceleration technique!

A spell fell on the others, and Xiao En's figure flashed out. The moment he pressed his palm on the ground, countless sharp spikes emerged. The authority of the Lord of the Underground can directly control the laws of the earth element. He glanced at both sides of the cliff, and the next second the sky collapsed and the earth cracked, and countless pieces of rubble fell from the sky.

——Earthquake magic!

——Gravity reversal!
Rumble, one side of the cliff broke directly, and a sharp boulder fell from the sky at an astonishing speed. Amid the shrill roar of the Pillar of Flesh and Blood, tens of thousands of tons of cliff walls directly cut its body in half as it emerged from the ground.

Anti-gravity can make objects float or accelerate their fall. Currently, Xiao En can control objects weighing tens of thousands of tons at most.

But in actual combat, he doesn't have the time to control heavy objects to fall down, unless he has a powerful magic weapon like the Heaven-Flipping Seal. This ability is currently used in conjunction with Earthquake. Normal anti-gravity is to rise into the air first and then fall. The pre-casting time is too long, and it can't be used against powerful enemies.

——Chain of the Earth!
Countless rocks turned into stone prisons to imprison the flesh and blood pillar that was broken into two sections. The enemies that had drilled out of the ground moved separately. Their mouths full of sharp teeth wanted to dig through the rocks and find the flesh and blood pipelines underground. They could regenerate broken limbs and reconnect to the pipeline network of the flesh and blood pillar. At the wound that was broken into two sections, the bloody limbs were rapidly deformed, countless sharp teeth emerged, and even a huge eyeball with a diameter of one meter appeared on the surface of the skin. It let out a mental scream and retreated into the underground world at the same time.

——Body fusion!
Xiao En's figure flashed, and the moment his palm touched the severed limb, a strange meat ball with a diameter of about 30 meters emerged. The split part of the flesh and blood pillar was instantly imprisoned, and the dozens of meters long body merged into a meat ball. However, unlike the previous creatures that were hit by this spell, its twisted body could actually be deformed again and restore its original physiological structure like a death worm.

This is its resistance to deformation.

——Advanced Missile Storm!
Arcane missiles shot out from the sky, and after severing the connection between the Pillar of Flesh and Blood and the main pipeline, its damage transfer ability became ineffective. What followed was a saturation attack that completely destroyed its body.

This section of the pillar of flesh and blood was definitely dead, but Sean had no way to deal with the part that escaped into the underground world.

After more than ten minutes, the battle was over.

"Clean the battlefield."

"Be alert."

Xiao En began to record the battle data just now. Dozens of reconnaissance magic eyes recorded the entire battle process. He not only had to record the monsters' strange abilities, but also the coordination of each battle group. These personnel would be redeployed later.

"The Pillar of Flesh and Blood isn't that difficult to kill, it just takes a little effort." Xiao En said to himself.

The invisible hand uses a magic pen to record a chapter of the monster manual.

The mysterious knowledge in the brain is transformed into a data stream that rapidly evolves and calculates, converting all enemies that appear in the entire battle into monster illustrations, recording the various abilities and talents they have displayed so far.

——Pillar of Flesh and Blood [Evil Thing]: Features: Damage Transfer, Flesh and Blood Regeneration, Tentacle Activation, Supernatural Strength, Supernatural Constitution, Control of Flesh and Blood Touch, Whispering Mind, Body Split and Regenerated. (Challenge Level 18, Challenge Difficulty A)
Can kill.

Xiao En can fight against the Pillar of Flesh and Blood alone.

But in the inner world of the weird kingdom, there are millions of such pillars of flesh and blood. Even if those that emerge from the surface world are killed, there are still countless in the inner world, and no matter how many of them die, as many will be hatched again in the core area.

Using the blood vessels of the human body as an analogy, the touch of flesh and blood is the capillaries, the pillars of flesh and blood are the veins, and at the deepest part of the inner world, there are also aortas that erode into the core of the planet.

In the Weird Kingdom, you never have to worry about not having any monsters to kill, because the entire planet, except for a few Witch King Cities where you can get supplies, is full of corrupted monster nests.
