BXBX NOVEL Chapter 336: Chapter 336: Unexpected Developments
"The Temple of Pride just won\'t let up," Kosor cursed. Enzo frowned, "We must handle this carefully; we can\'t let them succeed."
They arrived at a small town, intending to rest for a while. However, as soon as they entered the town, they noticed something was amiss. The townspeople looked anxious, as if they were afraid of something.
"What\'s wrong with this town?" Matilda asked. They found a local to inquire and learned that a powerful monster had appeared near the town, frequently attacking the residents.
"Let\'s go check it out," Enzo said. They made their way to the nearby forest and indeed found a gigantic monster. It resembled a massive gorilla, but its body was covered in sharp spikes.
"This guy looks like trouble," Kosor remarked. Without hesitation, Enzo charged forward and threw a punch at the monster. The creature was enraged and lunged at Enzo. Kosor and Matilda quickly joined the fight.
During the battle, they discovered that the monster was incredibly strong, and it could shoot a toxic liquid from its spikes. Patricia stood by, casting supportive spells in an attempt to cure her teammates of the poison.
"We can\'t keep this up; we need to come up with a plan," Enzo shouted. They began observing the monster\'s movements, looking for its weak points. After some careful watching, they realized that the creature\'s eyes were its vulnerability.
Enzo exchanged glances with Matilda and Kosor, and the three of them launched an attack on the monster\'s eyes simultaneously. With their combined efforts, they shattered one of the creature\'s eyes, causing it to let out a terrible scream and fall to the ground.
"Phew, we finally took care of it," Matilda sighed in relief. They had helped the town eliminate the threat of the monster, and the townspeople were extremely grateful to them.
After resting in the town for a while, they continued on their way. Unbeknownst to them, the people from the Temple of Pride had already learned of their whereabouts and were quietly tailing them.
The Temple of Pride was preparing to strike at the right moment to seize the Ancestor Meat and the magical array. Meanwhile, Enzo and the others remained unaware, still focused on finding a safe place.
They arrived at a valley filled with a mysterious aura. Enzo sensed that there was a powerful force lingering in this place.
"This place feels a bit strange," Kosor remarked. Matilda nodded, "Yeah, we should be careful."
They cautiously ventured into the valley when suddenly, a horde of monsters rushed in from all directions. These creatures were oddly shaped and extremely fierce.
"What the hell is going on?" Matilda exclaimed. Enzo and the others immediately prepared for battle, engaging in an intense fight against the monsters.
During the skirmish, they found these monsters to be quite difficult to handle, as their diverse attack patterns made it hard to defend against them. However, Enzo and his companions weren\'t pushovers; leveraging their formidable strength and teamwork, they gradually gained the upper hand.
Just as they were about to defeat the monsters, the people from the Temple of Pride finally appeared. The leader of the Temple sneered, "Did you really think you could escape so easily? Hand over the Ancestor Meat and the magical array."
Enzo and his friends regarded the Temple of Pride\'s members with wary expressions. Matilda scoffed, "In your dreams! If you can, come and take it."
A fierce battle erupted once more. The members of the Temple of Pride were powerful, and they possessed some mysterious artifacts, which left Enzo and his companions in a tight spot.
At that moment, Mau\'s henchmen reappeared. They launched a surprise attack from the shadows, causing significant trouble for the members of the Temple of Pride. Seizing the opportunity, Enzo and his companions counterattacked, pushing the Temple members back relentlessly.
"You think you can steal the Ancestor Meat and the magical array? Not a chance," Enzo declared. The leader of the Temple glared at them, his eyes filled with anger and resentment.
"Just wait, we will be back," the leader of the Temple shouted, and then he led his people to retreat swiftly.
Enzo and the others let out a sigh of relief, knowing that this battle was only a temporary reprieve; the members of the Temple of Pride would not give up easily. They needed to find a safe place quickly to research the Ancestor Meat and the magical array and enhance their own powers.
They continued onward, carefully avoiding various dangers along the way. Finally, they discovered a concealed cave and decided to rest there temporarily.
The cave was very quiet, and they began to study the Ancestor Meat and the magical array. In the process, they realized that there seemed to be some mysterious connection between the Ancestor Meat and the magical array.
"What secrets do the Ancestor Meat and the magical array hold?" Kosor asked. Enzo furrowed his brow, "We need to keep researching; maybe we can find a way to counter our enemies."
They immersed themselves in their studies, unaware that significant changes were occurring in the outside world. Some evil forces were quietly rising, and their targets were the Ancestor Meat and the magical array.
At this moment, Mau learned more about the plans of the evil forces. He decided to increase the protection for Enzo and Matilda, sending more of his subordinates to follow them in secret.
After studying in the cave for a while, Enzo and the others decided to set out once again. They needed to search for more clues to uncover the secrets of the Ancestor Meat and the magical array.
They exited the cave and continued their journey. Along the way, they encountered various people and events, gathering some new clues. However, they also faced greater dangers and challenges.
In a small town, they met a mysterious old man. The old man told them that far away, there was an ancient ruin that might hold the key to unlocking the secrets of the Ancestor Meat and the magical array.
"Really? Then we should hurry and check it out," Matilda said excitedly. Enzo nodded, "Alright, let\'s go."
They headed in the direction the old man had mentioned, enduring numerous hardships along the way. Eventually, they arrived at the ancient ruin.
The ruin was enveloped in a mysterious aura, with walls covered in ancient symbols and patterns. They cautiously entered the ruin, beginning to explore this enigmatic place.
Deep inside the ruin, they discovered a massive stone door. The door was etched with intricate runes that radiated powerful energy.
"How do we open this door?" Kosor asked. Patricia pondered for a moment and said, "Maybe we need to find a way to open the stone door; these runes must have some significance."
They began to carefully study the runes on the door, attempting to decipher its secrets. After some effort, they finally discovered a pattern.
According to the runes\' clues, they needed to find specific items within the ruin and place them in designated spots on the stone door in order to open it.
Thus, they started searching for these items within the ruin. After a thorough search, they finally located all the items and arranged them on the stone door.
As the items were placed, the runes on the door began to glow, and the door slowly opened.
They stepped through the doorway into a vast chamber. The room was filled with various precious artifacts, but their attention was drawn to a box emanating a mysterious light.
"What is that?" Matilda asked. Enzo approached cautiously and opened the box. Inside lay an ancient book that contained secrets about the Ancestor Meat and the magical array.
"Finally found it," Enzo exclaimed with excitement. They eagerly began to read the book, hoping to uncover methods to solve the mystery.
However, just as they were focused on reading, a group of mysterious individuals quietly entered the room.
"Hand over the book!" shouted the leader of the group. Enzo and the others immediately looked up at the mysterious figures. They did not know who these people were, but they could sense their immense power.
"Who are you? Why do you want this book?" Enzo asked. The mysterious man sneered, "Who we are isn\'t important. What matters is that this book is very important to us. Hand it over, or none of you will leave here."
Enzo and his friends looked at the mysterious man, their eyes filled with caution. Matilda scoffed, "In your dreams! If you can, come and take it."
Tension filled the air as both sides prepared for a new battle.
Without another word, the mysterious man charged directly at Enzo and the others. Enzo quickly closed the book and tucked it into his chest before meeting the man head-on.
"Come on, let\'s see who\'s tougher!" Enzo shouted as he swung his fist. Kosor didn\'t hold back either, wielding his great sword and slashing toward the mysterious man. Matilda, meanwhile, cast her ice divine arts, sending beams of cold light toward the enemy.
The mysterious man easily dodged Enzo\'s punch and retaliated with a swift palm strike. Enzo sidestepped just in time, narrowly avoiding the hit. Kosor\'s great sword struck the mysterious man, but a mysterious force blocked it, leaving only a shallow mark.
"This guy is tougher than he looks!" Kosor muttered. Matilda continued her assault and said, "What are you afraid of? Let\'s all go at him together!"
Patricia stood back, casting supportive spells to enhance her teammates\' strength and speed. The mysterious man grew increasingly irritated by their attacks and let out a roar, unleashing a surge of powerful energy.
Enzo and the others were knocked back a few steps by this force. "Not good, he\'s about to unleash a big move," Enzo shouted.
Sure enough, the mysterious man waved his hands, and countless beams of light shot toward Enzo and his friends. They quickly dodged, but the beams struck the ground, creating deep craters all around them.
