I'm a Pastor, what the hell is an Acute Gastroenteritis Outbreak Spell?!

The subordinates next to him were not much different–their ability to walk proved to be a challenge.

Regardless, they were still crawling non-stop on the ground.

“Damn it… I can’t eat this weird food anymore…it’s turned me into something neither human nor ghost, damn it…waaa… my handsome face…”

In these few days, in order to survive in this secret realm, he, like the troops he recruited, had been consuming large amounts of the dark food.

Their basic attributes and resistances were skyrocketing visible to the naked eye, but it was also causing irreversible damage to their bodies!

Obesity was only part of it. The main problem was that their bodies were gradually transforming into alien beasts.

In the beginning, the black skin worms just turned their skin a little darker, which wasn’t much of a problem, black skin looked healthier.

Black shell worms, while heightening their physical defense, also made their skin rougher and tougher.

Colorful spiders, which caused severe skin cracks, made them look like tree barks.

The Three-headed snakes made their teeth sharper and slightly protruding outward, and added some toxins.

The Wind mantis improved their movement and attack speeds, but at the same time, bulked up their legs.

Until a few days ago, they encountered giant flies. After consuming them, their floating capability and speed increased significantly. They also gained a lot of virus resistance.

But what came with it was the stench!

Over a dozen bodies constantly emitted an indescribable stench, somewhat like body odor or some combination of stinky tofu and fermented flour noodles.

After this effect began, many of them vomited several times.

Thankfully, over the past few days, they gradually adapted to this smell. Otherwise, they would have dropped dead from their own stench, let alone continue moving forward.

“Damn it… I’m so fat now, won’t others laugh at me once I go out?”

Hiding in the bushes, Zhuang Shuai wallowed in self-pity.

“I have to lose weight once I get out! Yes, lose weight!”

“Damn it! I can’t do it anymore. I can’t lose weight…”

“My lord!”

A soldier approached him: “There’s a cliff ahead, we can’t climb up, what should we do?”

Zhuang Shuai stuck his head out, his eyes spinning around in bewilderment.

Sure enough, the pathway to the mountaintop ahead disappeared, replaced with a huge cliff about a hundred meters in height, surrounded by various Alien Beasts.

“We’re blocked?”

Zhuang Shuai scratched his head and asked: “Have we checked other directions?”

“No.”

“Then, send two brothers to scout in different directions and see if there are any other paths.”

“Roger that!”

Two burly black men quietly ran towards the sides of the mountain peak. They returned after a short while.

“My lord! There’s also a cliff on the east side, we can’t climb up!”

“My lord! There’s a slope on the west side, but that seems to be the nest of Flying Thunder Dragons, many of them are gathered there.”

“Flying Thunder Dragons…”

Zhuang Shuai twitched at the corner of his mouth. On the way here, they had perfectly mastered the essence of guerrilla warfare.

Retreat when the enemy advances, harass when the enemy is weary.

Flee immediately upon encountering large groups of Alien Beasts, consume the ones that are fewer in number, continually enhancing their own strength.

But the Alien Beast, the Flying Thunder Dragon, he really didn’t dare to provoke.

Seeing the eager eyes of his subordinates around him, Zhuang Shuai gritted his teeth: “Find a way to lure a few solitary Flying Thunder Dragons here, first kill one or two, then I’ll try to figure out what food I can make.”

“If we could fly, we could make a fortune…”

“Fly… fly…”

“Fly what?”

A few subordinates suddenly looked up, stuttered, pointing towards the sky behind Zhuang Shuai.

“What the hell are you doing?”

Zhuang Shuai turned around and was startled, his chubby face trembling: “Flying Thunder Dragon?!”

Above him in the high sky, there were a dozen dark shadows flying in their direction at high speed.

“Quick, hide! Don’t make a sound! Let them fly over!”

Upon Zhuang Shuai’s order, the big black figures rapidly dashed towards the surrounding woods.

Some nestled in the bushes, others burrowed into the caves, and still others flopped onto the ground, wrapping themselves up with thick leaves.

In just over ten seconds, everything returned to tranquility, as if nothing had ever happened.

Half a month of guerrilla warfare had not only honed their experience in real combat, but also perfected their skills in hiding!

Soon, a dozen figures slowly descended, but instead of touching the ground, they kept circling around the big tree.

Zhuang Shuai, hidden in the bushes, peered up through the gaps in the bushes, his eyes filled with doubt.

“Not Flying Thunder Dragons? Sort of like… griffins?”

“There are people on them?”

“Damn it? There are other people in this godforsaken place?”

His small eyes were spinning chaotically, and quickly, he tucked his head in cover.

He joked, how could he possibly come out to meet them at this time?

Who knew who the people were, or what their motives were?

Besides, these people must have come here for the giant Homeland Crystal at the peak of the mountain, and there was no need for him to reveal himself.

Hee hee hee…

If all else fails, he could wait for them to engage in a great battle with the Alien Beast guarding the giant Homeland Crystal, then quietly bypass them.

The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the yellow bird behind!

Who knew that after waiting for a couple of minutes, this bunch was still circling in mid-air with no intention of leaving.

“What on earth are these people doing? They couldn’t have detected us, could they…”

Just as he was thinking this, three figures suddenly dropped down, landing in a triangular formation.

They dismounted cautiously, always vigilant about their surroundings.

Seeing this, Zhuang Shuai’s eyes lit up slightly.

“Griffon Knights… They are fully equipped with leather armors, bows and arrows, javelins, dragon spears, short swords. Full armaments, these are bloody six-star warriors!”

“Who’s got the heavy hand to recruit six-star warriors like Griffon Knights at this time and send them here?”

A fierce light flashed in his eyes. If he could kill this bunch of people and steal their griffins…

At the very least, if he ate these griffins, he might even gain the ability to fly…

Just as he was struggling whether to make a move, the leading person suddenly spoke.

“Mr. Zhuang Shuai, my lord invites you to join us in heading to the Black Tower Mountain’s Homeland Crystal at the peak. We kindly ask you to come out and meet us!”

“Huh?”

From beneath the bushes, Zhuang Shuai’s eyes suddenly changed.

They know me?

How is that possible!

How could these people possibly know I was here.

And…they know my name?

They must be joking!

In this situation, it’s even less likely for me to reveal myself.

And it’s definitely not possible for me to accompany them!

Unless, I capture these individuals first, to learn about their background from their own mouths.

The leading Griffon Knight frowned, carefully observing his surroundings.

“Strange, my lord said that man was in this area, but I can’t detect anything. Could it be…”

Just as he was pondering, there was a sudden rustling in the bushes not too far.

A large, dark figure abruptly sprang forth, charging towards him.

Just like a giant wild boar!

In almost no time at all, it was in front of the leading Griffon Knight.

And around them, a dozen wild boars also charged out of nowhere, aggressively pouncing on the three of them.

“What?”

“Alien Beast!”

The leading Griffon Knight grunted, not backing down but stepping forward. He launched an attack towards the charging figure.

“Die!”

“Bang!”
