Chapter 69: Golden Giant Ape

  This chapter has been revised, so if you've read this chapter before, please take another look.

  "Boom!!" As soon as Irina's voice fell, that undead assassin suddenly exploded.

  A sudden massive explosion caught Lin Wu off guard, and the powerful blast instantly engulfed him.

  "Xiao Wu!!" Elina exclaimed, rushing over.

  "Don't come over!!" Just as Irina was about to charge into the smoke produced by the undead assassin's self-destruction, Lin Wu's hoarse voice came through.

  "Xiao Wu, are you alright?" Elena asked with a tense expression.

  As Elena spoke, Lin Wu's figure emerged from the smoke and dust. At this moment, Lin Wu was still in a sorry state, his body covered in bloodstains.

  "Xiao Wu." Elena was startled by Lin Wu's appearance and was about to go over to support him when she was stopped again by Lin Wu.

  "Don't touch me now." Lin Wu said seriously.

  He took out a bottle of medicine and drank it, relieving his injuries. Lin Wu finally confirmed that the vengeful spirits were indeed created by Poseidon, and he also knew what Poseidon's plan was next.

  Because Lin Wu found something familiar, it was the same smoky thing that had caused Lin Wu to be hunted down by the purple electric leopard last time. This time, Posey borrowed this thing from the self-destructing assassin and sprinkled it on himself, so next Posey should attract a demon beast to hunt himself down.

  "This Bo Si guy is really vicious, everything wants to borrow a knife to kill people, but he himself never shows up." Lin Wu thought to himself.

  "Xiao Wu, what's wrong?" Eileen said with some anxiety, Lin Wu's abnormality made Eileen feel uneasy. "It is said that people who are invaded by the undead will also become undead..." Suddenly, an unsettling thought emerged in Eileen's mind.

  "Could it be..." Elina gazed at Lin Wu, her heart daring not to imagine what she would do if Lin Wu became a ghost.

  "Cough, cough, Elena, can you treat me first?" Lin Wu said with a dry cough, seeing that Elena was somewhat absent-minded. The life-saving medicine was limited, and Lin Wu didn't want to waste it excessively. Moreover, having been injured by the undead's self-explosion, using purification magic of the light system would be safer, and Lin Wu also didn't want to become an undead.

  "No, no, Xiao Wu, you won't become a vengeful spirit, I'll definitely save you..." Elena said anxiously.

  Upon hearing Irina's words, Lin Wu was taken aback and laughed: "Irina, do I look like I'm about to become a ghost? Come on, time is running out, we need to hurry up and get going."

  "Really?" Elina asked with a mixture of doubt and skepticism, but after Lin Wu repeatedly confirmed it, she carefully cast a healing spell on him.

  With the healing technique, Lin Wu's wounds on his body quickly recovered, and with the life medicine he had drunk before, Lin Wu's injuries healed extremely fast.

  "Little Wu, how come the wound on your hand hasn't healed yet?" Elena looked at the scar on Lin Wu's right hand and frowned.

  When he heard this, Lin Wu's body trembled slightly, and then smiled, "It's nothing, this little injury doesn't matter." Lin Wu waved his hand. "It seems that the divine power occupying his right hand is still quite repelled by the light-based healing magic, which has no effect on his right hand."

  At this time, a strong energy fluctuation began to come from afar, followed by a loud roar.

  "Go!!" Without another word, Lin Wu and Eirina quickly ran towards the distance.

  "This boss should be gotten rid of as soon as possible, keeping him is a disaster." Feeling the terrifying energy fluctuations, Lin Wu's heart couldn't help but arise with murderous intentions.

  ……

  "Grass, this time you've gone too far." Bossy stared at the giant chasing him, and his heart also involuntarily took a cold breath. Just as Bossy hesitated for an instant, a huge fist heavily struck his back.

  "Hmph!!"

  In an instant, Posei spat out a mouthful of blood and his body emitted a cracking sound as if his bones were shattering. His entire person flew out like a kite.

  "We must find Lin Wu as soon as possible. This time, just bring this big fellow over and he will surely die." Bo Si thought to himself, spitting out blood in big mouthfuls.

  This was also thanks to Poseidon's cultivation of the undead arts, although he was severely injured, as long as his soul was not damaged, he had a way to recover by absorbing the vital energy of others.

  ……

  "Xiao Wu, I'm exhausted. Let's take a break," Eriol said weakly, collapsing to the ground. The intense running from earlier was not something a mage like her could withstand.

  Seeing Irina, Lin Wu was also anxious for a while. He had been sprinkled with that mysterious powder by Posei and couldn't touch Irina, otherwise Irina would also become the target of pursuit by that unknown terrifying demon beast.

  But Irina's situation was clearly unsustainable.

  Just as Lin Wu was getting anxious, the ground suddenly started to shake slightly, and then a huge black shadow suddenly jumped up from afar, appearing in the high sky not far from Lin Wu and others. "Boom!!" The black shadow landed, emitting a loud noise like a cannonball, and the surrounding trees were all crushed by the black shadow. The shockwave generated by the black shadow's landing made even Lin Wu and Ailina, who were far away, feel the ground shaking beneath their feet, showing the power of the black shadow when it landed.

  As the dust settled when the dark shadow landed, Lin Wu and Ailina also saw the true face of the giant black shadow for the first time.

  That was a golden giant ape over ten meters tall, emitting a strong sense of oppression, with blood-red pupils, and its entire body covered in golden fur that shone like steel. The enormous muscles were terrifying to behold, especially the sharp claws which occasionally flashed with a hint of golden light. Seeing this magical beast, which looked exactly as it was described in the book, Lin Wu and Ailina couldn't help but take a deep breath.

  "A 5th-tier intermediate magical beast, Golden Giant Ape!!" The two said bitterly.

  "Ahhh!!!"

  It seemed that someone had recognized it, the giant gorilla suddenly stood upright, its two hands fiercely pounding its chest, emitting a burst of sharp and piercing metallic sounds.

  Looking at the giant King Kong ape, Lin Wu took a deep breath. "Elena, you go first, don't worry about me, I'll lure the King Kong ape away."

  "Xiao Wu, that's a level 5 magical beast! You'll die!" Elena exclaimed.

  "We won't make it, both of us will die." Lin Wu shouted.

  "But..." Elena wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Lin Wu, "Hurry up, you'll only get in the way if you stay by my side."

  Upon hearing Lin Wu's words, Elena knew he was right, she would only become a burden to Lin Wu. "Be careful, little Wu, you must come back alive." After saying that, Elena gritted her teeth and forced herself to walk towards the depths of the forest.

  At this time, the Golden Giant Ape did not immediately launch an attack, because it suddenly felt that the human in front of it was somewhat different from the one that had attacked it before. The spiritual intelligence of a 5th-level magical beast is much higher than that of a 4th-level magical beast, and the Golden Giant Ape is also a primate magical beast, its wisdom is even higher than that of ordinary 5th-level magical beasts.

  Although the King Kong ape is highly intelligent, it is a demon beast after all. Although the humans in front of him feel somewhat different, that aura is absolutely unmistakable. For those who dare to attack humans, the King Kong ape's approach is very direct - that is, to kill them off.
