Dragon of the Root

Chapter 977: Humbaba wakes up from deep sleep

When Leonidas said the name, in the middle of the Demon Beast group, the ground suddenly opened, and a huge green creature resembling a bear and a deer appeared, and this creature was Humbaba.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!"

After Humbaba came out of the ground, there was no dirt on him, and his huge stature stood among a group of Demon Beasts, as if to stand out from the crowd.

Leonidas who saw this scene, didn't know what to do, but his heart was filled with emotion.

"This poor monk and Ushiwakamaru-dono passed the abandoned statue of Lord Dragon Sage on their way there. At that time, Humbaba suddenly came out of the statue and came to the north wall with us." Benkei who was standing beside Leonidas explained.

It turned out that ever since Wu Ming left, after helping the humans build a wall of vines, Humbaba had gone to sleep in a statue that was starting to be abandoned due to the gradual separation of gods and humans.

Wu Ming never thought that Humbaba could sleep on his own statue, because God had nothing to take away, and he also heard that it had been abandoned, so he never went there, which was why he never met.

Although the statue will be cleaned by Siduri from time to time, but because of the Demon Beast, she has less time to go, but basically she has not been there in the past six months, and is considered abandoned.

And after Wu Ming used Yggdrasil, who became one with Humbaba, through the connection between the two, he suddenly woke up the sleeping Humbaba.

Humbaba's arrival at this time was a miracle for Leonidas, as it gave him hope.

This is the end of the Age of Gods, when the miracle still exists and the mysteries have not completely disappeared, therefore Leonidas is not repeating the mistakes of the Hot Springs Pass.

"The reason why Humbaba didn't move earlier was entirely because it took time to build a new vine barrier." Ushiwakamaru used his reserve power of Noble Phantasm to use his incredible bouncing power to jump from above and land firmly at Leonidas and Benkei's side.

Seeing that the vines that had emerged from the ground in front of the light, after tearing the Demon Beasts apart, were still getting thicker and entangled together, just like Ushiwakamaru did. A pair of vine barriers were formed to protect the entire north wall again.

At this moment, Leonidas Noble Phantasm could no longer hold on, the light from the light layer dimmed instantly, and the orange-red shield that connected all the light layers was also instantly shattered.

Leonidas staggered and almost fell, but before Benkei could help him, Leonidas supported him with his spear and stood up again.

"It's all right, General Leonidas." Benkei asked subconsciously.

"The magic power consumption is rather large." After all, Leonidas' Noble Phantasm protected the entire northern wall, and naturally it consumed a lot of magic power.

"Since you can still move, then you should be able to kill that Demon Beast." Ushiwakamaru said while using his sword to stab the Demon Beasts that were constantly attacking the vine barrier one by one through the gap between the vine barriers.

Although this has the attitude of losing a general, at least there is no need to be threatened with life, but saving time and effort, as long as the weapon is sent, it will successfully stab the Demon Beast.

After all this is war, and only victory is the basis of everything.

And with Humbaba's surprise attack, no matter how many Demon Beasts there were, it was still useless.

Due to Humbaba's impact, countless Demon Beasts around were knocked out.

Immediately after, countless Demon Beasts rushed towards Humbaba who was not a Demon Beast, ready to tear this enemy apart.

They have been influenced by the Gorgons, and there is no fear anymore. Even if Humbaba is a Divine Beast, they dare to rush to kill him.

But the Demon Beasts that had been strengthened twice were still not Humbaba's opponents. The only advantage of the Demon Beasts was that they were not afraid of life and death because of the final orders issued by the Gorgons.

If the opponent was a human, the Demon Beast's life and death courage would be extremely frightening, but it was a pity that the Demon Beast faced Humbaba who was a Divine Beast.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!"

While Humbaba was making his own unique roar, he summoned vines from the ground to attack the Demon Beasts that were approaching him.

The savage Demon Beasts simply couldn't get close to Humbaba. When they got close, they were either pierced by the vines or crushed by the vines, and countless Demon Beasts' blood was splashed.

In this piece of land, but because of the distance, there is not a single blood purple Demon Beast within a few meters of Humbaba, as if he is calm.

At this moment, with Humbaba's hind legs bent, thighs on the ground, and front legs supporting his body, it looks like Humbaba is quite noble.

And as more and more Demon Beasts were killed by Humbaba, Muuu, the Demon Beast commander, took action.

The ground that was originally stable under Humbaba's feet suddenly swelled up, and Humbaba jumped up to avoid the seven snake heads that came out from under his feet and wanted to attack him.

The vines paved the way for Humbaba to build a bridge. Humbaba didn't stain the blood on the ground at all, he moved to another place and cleaned all the Demon Beasts there with vines, Humbaba sat down again like a noble and continued to clean the Demon Beasts.

Muuu who came out of the ground where Humbaba was sitting, did not remove his huge body from the ground, and did not rush to attack Humbaba, but slowly pulled the seven snake heads back to the earth and hid again.

Although Muuu was influenced by the Gorgons, it was different from the mass-produced Demon Beasts. It does not fall into a frenzy and is not afraid of life and death. In other ways, he could still use his brain.

But Humbaba didn't budge, he was just a Muuu. He was lucky to dodge his vines on the ground. Even in the face of the real Goddess Tiamat, it showed that the real Humbaba could compete with her, not to mention a mere Muuu.

In Humbaba's view, at least the Gorgon who wielded the power of Goddess Tiamat from afar, should be used as his opponent. Just as Humbaba thought, Muuu slipped to the ground to prepare for another sneak attack.

Muuu was found and entangled by the vines that Humbaba had placed on the ground. Muuu who struggled out of the ground and was injured in several places, it seems that he suffered a heavy loss from Humbaba.

And this time, the Gorgons couldn't take it anymore.

"Demon Beasts, attack the northern wall!!"
