Under the control of Behemoth, the surrounding ancient trees collapsed one after another, the earth shattered, and countless gravel flew into the air and gathered together, forming a large number of huge rock blocks in an instant.
Then, Behemoth manipulated these rocks and hit Zheng Haoyu's various protective stances heavily.
"Tsk, you're such a stupid big guy. It's not as powerful as smashing it yourself. Forget it, let's try my imitation of the artifact."
Zheng Haoyu, who had just completed a few magic circles, felt the consumption of the protective shield from the magic ring and AI, mocked again, and then spread his left hand.
In Zheng Haoyu's vision, a golden ring hanging on his middle finger began to stretch and deform, and then turned into a huge one-handed ax that stood upright and was definitely taller than Zheng Haoyu.
The huge one-handed ax is golden in color, with a handle nearly two meters long, but the end grip for shaking hands is only a dozen centimeters, and the ax blade is an exaggerated width of more than sixty centimeters!
The ax awn and ax cheek connected to the ax blade at the same time look like a beautiful angel wearing a robe, spreading wings, and shining. The angel's face is very delicate, so delicate that it can be clearly seen!
The back and eye of the ax each have a huge spike like a sword blade. The overall look makes this huge one-handed ax look extraordinary and domineering!
One of the Seven Deadly Sins' artifacts in the anime, a powerful artifact named after the girl who is loved by the sun, the Q version of the divine ax Rita (rhitta)!
Of course, this is not real, but a 1:1 imitation made by Zheng Haoyu using alchemy.
The appearance, width and length were perfect, but Zheng Haoyu didn’t know the weight, so he made it directly weigh 9999 pounds, which is an astonishing 4.54 tons!
It's equivalent to Zheng Haoyu holding a light truck with one hand right now. Fortunately, he is a superpower who has been injected with the new No. 5 compound. Otherwise, he would not be able to lift it up, and he would be able to drag it on the ground, and he would not even be able to use it.
, as a decoration.
However, the weight can be adjusted. It was just that Zheng Haoyu wanted to install a fork and in order to meet the strong character of the arrogant artifact, he adjusted it like this.
Of course, since it is an imitation, there will naturally be some changes in function.
The original divine ax was tailor-made for Escanor, the Lord of the Sun and the sin of arrogance who possessed the magic power of the sun.
So its function is to absorb the huge heat and magic power released by Escanor during the day to fill and release it, which is equivalent to a limiter and power bank.
And this one made by Zheng Haoyu is really a power bank.
In the ring form, the Divine Ax will absorb the surrounding fire elements and light elements composed of various light radiations all the time, and then store them.
After it transforms into a weapon form, the magic that has been set in advance on the divine ax will be released and changed according to the user's various needs, which is equivalent to a divine ax with solar magic power!
However, the power of the 'sun' is determined by the amount of stored elements, and it cannot allow Zheng Haoyu to enter the power burst state called the one (heaven and earth, only I am the only one).
But overall, it's pretty cool, like this.
"super slash(dust slash)!"
Following Zheng Haoyu's whisper, the raised ax began to release astonishing light and heat.
Just like the sun falling into the world, the extremely dazzling light completely illuminated the dark forest in an instant, and at the same time restrained the Behemoth's continuous smashing of giant rocks.
Because of this sun-like light, it was temporarily blinded!
If it weren't for the fact that Behemoth is a particularly powerful monster, and that it itself is composed of extremely pure earth elements, it has strong resistance and repulsion to other elements.
I'm afraid that that moment just now, I wasn't temporarily blinded, but started to burn directly!
But even so, the strong stimulation caused by blindness makes Behemoth extremely uncomfortable, but the anger in his heart is getting stronger and stronger, making Behemoth want to go crazy!
But it's a pity that Behemoth can't go crazy anymore.
Because, Zheng Haoyu’s divine ax was swung at it!
"The power of the earth spirit!!!"
Although it is blind, as a Behemoth beast composed of countless pure earth elements, it can still perceive and judge through the changes in the surrounding elements.
In Behemoth's perception, an extremely large fire element was emitting in front of him, and his combat instinct from having experienced many battles also told him that he was in danger.
So, Behemoth forced down his angry emotions, roared loudly, and in an instant, controlled a large amount of earth elements and gathered them on his body, forming a huge layer of earth armor!
At the same time, it continuously draws energy from the earth to increase the defense of the earth armor!
At this moment, Behemoth is just like Antai, the god of earth and strength in Greek mythology. However, Antai has infinite power, while Behemoth has infinite defense!
The moment the divine ax strike came into contact with the earth armor blessed by the endless power of the earth, the world seemed to be silent for a second, and then a violent impact broke out!
The thousand-year-old forest stretching for thousands of meters was flattened by this impact!
The surrounding ground was also directly shattered, and the ground within a radius of 100 meters with the impact as the midpoint sank several meters directly!!
In short, funds are burning!!!
"Awesome, I've blocked all this and haven't broken through the defense yet. Sure enough, a counterfeit is a counterfeit. It seems like it will have to be improved in the future."
When the impact dissipated and everything was calm, Zheng Haoyu looked at the Behemoth beast in front of him who was unscathed, except that most of the earth armor was broken into pieces. He turned the high-imitation divine ax back into a ring and put it on again. At the same time, he couldn't help but say
One sentence.
And he also made up his mind to create a better one.
"………………Huh, human, who are you?"
After a long silence, Behemoth closed its eyes and asked Zheng Haoyu politely and warily.
"Well, I really want to complain. Forget it, Zheng Haoyu, a magician who knows alchemy and a monster farmer."
Hearing Behemoth's inquiry, Zheng Haoyu wanted to complain for some reason, but he didn't know what to complain about, so he simply introduced himself.
The magician who can do alchemy is of course real, and the monster farmer is also real, because the latter is given by the world ID card.
However, being a monster farmer has no effect on him, except for giving him a few pieces of land and a lot of basic knowledge about monsters.
As for the earth, Zheng Haoyu, who can turn stones into gold, can buy a lot in the fairy tale world. As for monster knowledge, the Book of Truth records it in more detail than the world ID card.
It was completely tasteless, but there was no way to change it, so Zheng Haoyu had no choice but to accept it.
Originally, he thought it would be a dragon-slaying knight, a hero, a great sage, or something like that, but all his expectations at the time were wasted.
"A magician who can do alchemy? No wonder..."
When Behemoth heard Zheng Haoyu's self-introduction, he felt a little strange about Zheng Haoyu's name, but he was more aware of it.
He said, why is this scene so familiar? It turns out that he has experienced it himself!
Among human beings, the ones who should not be offended the most are people like Zheng Haoyu.
Because you don’t know how many good things these guys have hidden in their bodies!
I recall that back then, that damn old man was like this. He stayed in the magic shield, in front of himself, and casually took out so many good things from his body. After he was fully armed, he took a stick and just...
Chase yourself for more than ten kilometers!
That taste has lasted almost two thousand years, and even now, Behemoth feels like it has a toothache!
When Zheng Haoyu looked at the strange-looking Behemoth, he always felt that there was a story, and he became a little curious.
"...Human magician, then why did you let me out?"
Behemoth remained silent for a while, then slowly opened its scarlet eyes, which had almost recovered, and asked doubtfully.
"Well, I want to take you as my subordinate."
Without any hesitation, Zheng Haoyu tilted his head and spoke with a smile.
“……………………………………”
Hiss, calm down! Behemoth! You are the king of monsters with great courage! Be calm, be calm, don’t worry about this little bastard human……
Behemoth kept telling himself to calm down, and then said with a serious expression.
"This is impossible, human magician! Behemoth will never surrender!"
"Really? Really not?"
"no!"
"Then let's change it. According to the monster's rules, let's have a fight, and the loser will listen to the winner. How about that?"
"No, wait, you're not a monster. If you want to do it yourself, I won't admit this duel. Besides, what's the benefit to me if I win against you?"
Feeling Behemoth's suspicious eyes, Zheng Haoyu chuckled. As Behemoth's eyes became increasingly wary, he took out an object from behind and threw it to Behemoth.
"Oh, let's not talk about the monster thing for now. I lost. I guarantee your satisfaction with this thing!"
Originally, when Behemoth heard Zheng Haoyu's words, it was alert but also a little unconcerned.
After all, I am an ancient existence that has lived for thousands of years. Although I used to either eat or sleep, I have lived for thousands of years and have seen a lot of things, not to mention the grains of desert sand.
The kind of thing that can really have an effect on yourself will definitely be useful to those bastards of the Five Spirit Kings.
As for the little human beings, the time from their birth to the present is probably not even three thousand years, right?
It admits that humans are indeed much better than monsters in some aspects.
But in just three thousand years, even if some humans do get good things, other humans will get in on it, and then dog bites dog, and a so-called war breaks out like a monster playing with its cubs.
But in the end, most of these treasures will be profited by powerful monster fishermen like them, turning them into the foundation of their powerful strength!
So Behemoth really doesn't value the things Zheng Haoyu throws at it. After all, humans really don't keep treasures. Most of the things that can be kept are the kind of low-grade things that are only favored by low-level monsters.
But the next moment, Behemoth slapped him in the face.
Because Zheng Haoyu had just thrown the object, Behemoth, which was originally a little disdainful, seemed to be suppressed by instinct in an instant, and its body spontaneously caught the mysterious object.
Putting his hands in front of him, Behemoth opened his huge claws with desire and doubt in his heart.
What caught the eye was an earth-yellow diamond-shaped crystal that was like a grain of salt compared to the Behemoth. It was emitting a very faint earth-yellow light in the dim environment of the dark ancient forest that had been razed to the ground.
In Behemoth's perception, the diamond-shaped crystal in the gap between his nails is emitting an extremely large amount of pure earth element.
How huge is it? According to Behemoth's own concept, once all the pure earth elements in this crystal are released, it will be enough to create a mountain thousands of meters high, with the internal and external hardness comparable to granite!
It is equivalent to Behemoth holding a granite mountain range now!
And it’s the kind that can digest and improve one’s strength!!
This is simply the treasure that earth element monsters dream of, one of a kind!
If those four bastards knew that such a thing existed, I'm afraid a world war would immediately start in the fairy tale world!
After all, this thing is of great benefit even to those two who can only use the power of darkness. After swallowing and digesting it, even ordinary low-status monsters can immediately gain the power of earth spirits that is comparable to their own.
!!!
Not to mention a monster like it that specializes in earth elements!
"Human, what is this?!"
"The e element, whose full name is earth, symbolizes the earth and means the pure essence of the earth."
"As for what its function is, I don't need to say more. As you are composed of the earth element, you should know it, right? Of course, if you are not clear, I can explain it to you."
Zheng Haoyu put away the hoverboard, found a relatively clean place, used magic to conjure a stone chair, sat on it, held his chin, and answered Behemoth's deep-voiced question with a smile on his face.
"The e element? It symbolizes the pure essence of the earth. What a good thing! This thing can indeed be used as a bet for us, but..."
Looking at the e-element with fiery eyes, Behemoth kept praising it, but before he finished speaking, Behemoth grabbed the e-element tightly in its hand and said loudly to Zheng Haoyu in a arrogant tone.
"Now that I have this thing in my hand, why should I bet with you? Besides, the surrounding wood elements have completely disappeared. As long as I want it, you can't stop me at all. Human, how is this possible?!"
“Ding, ding, ding, ding…………”
Behemoth's eyes bulged, and he looked at the e-element that Zheng Haoyu was playing with in his hand with a look of shock. It was a piece of aqua blue diamond-shaped crystal that should be similar to the e-element, but exuded the water element!
During the more than a thousand years since it was sealed, what happened in the fairy tale world?
Although the e element has never been seen before, considering the amount of earth element contained in the e element, it would take thousands of years to naturally produce a piece of e element in the fairy tale world.
But what is the thing in the hand of a human kid? Do humans have that many elemental crystals like e-element?
Behemoth suspects that the beast is still alive……
"Human, where did you get these things?"
"Want to know? If I win, I will tell you. Not only that, I will also help you tailor your equipment and provide you with the whereabouts of the Five Spirit Kings."
"How about on the contrary, if you lose, you have to listen to me? Of course, I won't force you to do something you don't want to do."
Zheng Haoyu said while still maintaining a smile while playing with the element crystals.
"………………Breathe, exhale! Good!!!"
Behemoth stared at Zheng Haoyu for a long time, and finally took a deep breath, decided to give it a try, and agreed to a duel with Zheng Haoyu.
After all, it’s too much to give!
If it wins, its strength will be greatly improved, and maybe it will have a chance to become the real king of monsters!
Of course, Behemoth is not stupid, or in other words, there is no stupid person who has lived for thousands of years. The Behemoth in the original work is just because he has not encountered an existence that can make him feel extremely troublesome, so
That's why he is so arrogant.
But under the intimidation of power and the temptation of huge benefits, Behemoth will also use its brain made purely of earth elements.
Faced with several duel conditions proposed by Behemoth Beast, Zheng Haoyu showed no concern and agreed with a wave of his hand.
He even made a magic contract on the spot, handwriting down the content of the duel, the requirements, and the price the loser would have to pay, in front of Behemoth.
"Just take a look for yourself. If you're not satisfied, you can change it yourself."
Seeing this, Behemoth always felt something was wrong, but after looking at the luxurious bets on the contract, Behemoth glanced at it several times and checked it several times before making up his mind and signing the contract.
"Give it back to you, human."
Following the self-immolation of the magic contract, although Behemoth was very reluctant to part with it, it still put the e element in front of Zheng Haoyu, wanting to return it to him.
"Just keep this thing. You will need it after the duel is over anyway."
Some admired the character of the monsters in the fairy tale world, but Zheng Haoyu did not take it back, letting the Behemoth beast keep it for himself.
Although this kind of thing is difficult to make, with the blessing of money, I have made a lot of them. One more or one less does not matter much.
What's more important now is to abduct Behemoth!
After returning it several times to no avail, Behemoth didn't say much. He silently placed the e element somewhere on his body and sealed it with the earth element.
Then, with the trembling of the earth and the mountains, the Behemoth exerted its strength and crawled out of the earth, revealing the four lower limbs of its lower body that were as thick as pillars, sharp as blades, and resembled crustacean legs and an extremely long and thick limb.
Tail.
"Come on, this size is like a beast with its back turned into a dog!"
Looking at the height of 136.83 meters that came into view after the AI scan, Zheng Haoyu couldn't help but open his mouth. Thinking about the Behemoth behind him, he shook his head and couldn't help but say something.
At the same time, I was relieved. This is in line with the description in the original work of having iron teeth and bronze teeth, feeding on mountain peaks, and shaking the earth with strength.
Looking at the Behemoths behind them, Zheng Haoyu doubted that they were even fifty meters tall.
"Human, Zheng, uh, forget it, I'll just call you human. Your name is too strange. Are we going to start a duel now?"
Behemoth looks very fat, but according to the unknown principle that all fat people in the fairy tale world are flexible fat people, its body is also quite flexible, and it can bend down easily and lower its head to ask Zheng Haoyu.
"Forget it, this place is too close to the Snow White Kingdom. We should go to a place where there are no people so we can let go."
Zheng Haoyu shook his head and said there was no rush. He moved his hands together, controlled the power of the elements, constructed a magic circle, then enlarged it to a size similar to that of Behemoth, and finally walked in slowly.
When Behemoth saw this, he did not hesitate. After all, he signed a magic contract, and in the fairy tale world, magic contracts are not so easy to sign.
Once the contract is signed, anyone who tries to violate the contract will pay a price beyond imagination that even a being of the Five Spirit King's level cannot easily pay!
So Behemoth didn't panic at all, and walked in slowly, but every step was like an earthquake.
