c2884: 2885: The New Eliminator

The silent air gradually spread.

Angel and Laplace were silent at this moment, not bothering with the stray magic monsters, instead quietly watching the sky, waiting for the arrival of this wave of eliminators.

They didn’t have to wait long before a rift was torn open in the sky.

When Angel saw the size of the space rift, he frowned slightly.

Compared to the initial rift that the previous magic monster army tore open, this space rift was obviously larger. This also meant that the number of magic monsters arriving this time was unknown, but their size was likely larger than the previous ones.

Just how much larger, he didn’t know.

If the rift continued to expand, tearing apart the entire sky, they would have to run.

Angel’s gaze fixed on the rift, cautiously observing its expansion... However, something unexpected happened; apart from its initial appearance, the rift did not expand further?

Generally speaking, a space rift continuously struggles to enlarge until all the eliminators have entered, after which it slowly shrinks.

But now, the space rift opened up to a two-hundred-meter rift right from the start and then... it didn’t enlarge further?

This was much smaller than the four-hundred-meter rift caused by the previous magic monster army!

Angel’s initially worried eyes gradually changed: This time, they didn’t send a giant beast, did they?

So, is it possible now to use God’s View to see what the eliminators beyond the void are like?

When energy fluctuations appeared in the void, Angel quietly retracted his gaze, worried that there might be a giant beast, and his gaze might be captured by it, leaving him no chance to escape.

Therefore, Angel actually did not know what the eliminators in the void looked like.

However, seeing that the rift in the sky wasn’t large, did this mean that the eliminators in the void weren’t large either, and were the kind they could handle? So, is it okay now to use God’s View to see what it looks like?

Thinking of this, Angel slightly closed his eyes, preparing to sink his thoughts into the authority of the Gate of Dreams.

However, before he could completely close his eyes, he saw outside the rift in the air, a slender limb extending out, its tip like a sharp blade.

In less than a second, a second equally sharp limb appeared.

In the next two seconds, a third and fourth appeared... A total of ten limbs extended out from the void.

From a distance, the limbs appeared slim and sharp, long like tentacles, clinging to the sky like a curtain.

Although this scene was not as shocking as the Heavenly Eye in the Abyss’ Wilderness of Dreams, the sense of dread wasn’t any less.

"So many limbs, is it an arthropod?" Angel murmured softly.

Not long after speaking, the ten limbs in the sky began to separate, five limbs on each side of the space rift.

Then, under the surprised and doubtful eyes of Angel and Laplace, the five limbs on each side exerted force, and the thin line-like space rift was forcibly pulled open!

This scene truly shocked Angel.

One has to know, the previous magic monster army relied on tens of thousands in numbers to impact the space rift into a four-hundred-meter seam.

Yet no single magic monster could physically tear open the rift, especially not horizontally.

And now, this newly appeared magic monster did it.

This signified a magic monster capable of easily tearing open spaces.

Also, even if they defeated this magic monster, it would be difficult to kill it. It could tear open space at will and escape directly.

It’s like a Wizard using a Plane Corridor to forcibly retreat from the battlefield, there’s no way to counter it.

Furthermore, seeing how easily this magic monster tore open the space rift, it was uncertain if they could even fight it decisively.

Angel turned his gaze towards Laplace, whether to fight, dare to fight, or flee now, depended on Laplace’s decision.

However, Laplace didn’t immediately decide but said: "Let’s assess the situation first. I have a feeling this magic monster is different from the previous ones."

"Different from the previous magic monsters?" Angel observed intently for a moment; so far, only ten limbs had emerged, and he couldn’t tell any differences just by looking at that.

"What’s different?" Was it different in strength?

Laplace shook her head without elaborating. She found it hard to articulate clearly now, but having slain many magic monsters before, she was quite familiar with them. This not-yet-fully-revealed magic monster gave her a notably different feeling.

As they conversed, the torn rift had reached a hundred meters.

Through the dark rift, Angel could vaguely see a pair of eerie pale eyes lighting up in the void.

But these eyes had no whites, resembling dead fish eyes.

As Angel wondered what kind of magic monster it was, it finally poked its head out.

When Angel saw the monster’s head, his expression seemed frozen by cold ice, rigid and speechless for a long time.

On the other side, Laplace was also stunned, because the monster’s head was... incredibly odd.

On top was an enormous bulge, even larger than the entire head, smooth and black, with tiny greyish patterns, somewhat resembling the bulge on a fish’s head.

And its face... was fish-like, with bizarrely pale eyes and gills that perpetually opened and closed.

Its chin had two whiskers, curling up like a goat’s beard.

The entire head resembled a hybrid of a fish and a goat fish.

A tad absurd, and a bit bizarre.

Once its head emerged, the ten limbs clung to the sky, using the sky as a wall for support, a gentle push enabled its body and abdomen to come through.
