Chapter 280: 280

Outside the black fog Domain, in front of the Gates of Hell.

Nikorei’s attention was completely focused on the dark door not far ahead.

According to her observation.

The opening of the single passageway of the Gates of Hell was almost today.

Therefore, in the past few days.

She had never left this place.

While she was observing, her mind suddenly moved and her gaze shifted to another direction.

Then, in the next moment.

Nikorei’s beautiful face changed.

That was…

Nikorei was stunned for a moment. Then, her eyes darkened as she narrowed her eyes and looked over there.

Beside him.

Other than observing the movements of the Gates of Hell, Quentin also did not forget to pay attention to her movements. After all, this woman was an extremely powerful existence. Any strange actions of hers were very noteworthy.

So, when Nikorei suddenly looked in another direction.

His gaze subconsciously followed her.

And then…

His expression changed just like Nikorei’s.

He saw it.

Countless bolts of lightning descended. It was silent, and he could not hear the slightest movement.

This movement was very far away.

Although this scene also happened in the Black Swamp, it was very far away from them. If he flew over like this, he would probably need a few hours.

Other than the endless lightning.

He also saw.

When the lightning lit up, countless black fog surged up into the sky from behind.

Although it looked like an ordinary black fog, even from such a distance, Quentin could still sense a rather strange and eerie aura from it.

What made him widen his eyes the most.

Was the endless black fog that soared into the sky.

Looking from afar, it actually looked like a giant that was entirely made of black fog!

The sky was above his head, and his feet were on the ground!

Besides the black fog giant, there was also a scythe that was also made of black fog. It looked incomparably sharp, and was quite breathtaking.

On this black fog giant’s body.

Quentin felt a very familiar aura.

This aura…

He had it, and so did Nikorei. All the A rank existences he knew had it…

Faith!!

This was the power of faith!

He could sense a very strong power of faith from this black fog giant!!

“This is?!”

Quentin’s expression changed drastically.

This scene…

Was very similar to when he had advanced to A rank!

Thinking of this, an unbelievable guess appeared in his mind… could it be that someone had advanced to A rank?!!

How was this possible?!

From the looks of it, the suffocating aura on the other party was clearly not the aura of a normal mage, but more like an aura of a strange creature.

And before coming to the Black Swamp…

It was not that he had not investigated the situation in the Black Swamp.

After all, this piece of land was very dangerous.

According to the results of his previous investigation, other than the current A rank strange creature, the remaining B+ rank strange creatures were quite numerous. However, even the strongest oddities were still quite a distance away from A rank.

At that time, he had also come to a conclusion based on this situation.

That was that it was impossible for the black swamp to produce a new A rank strange creature within the next ten years!!

He did not expect that, in just a few days, he had already been slapped in the face.

Quentin’s face was filled with disbelief.

Who was it?

Which strange creature was it?!

Just as he was thinking about this…

A trembling and hoarse voice suddenly came from the side.

“This figure is… It’s him?!”

“What happened to him? How did he become so scary?!”

Quentin looked over and saw Garros, who was next to Nikorei, pointing at the figure in the sky not far away. He was very frightened.

Quentin raised his eyebrows and immediately asked, “do you know him?”

“Which strange creature is it?”

Nikorei glanced at Quentin when she heard that and did not say anything.

Garros was also stunned when he heard that.

He felt strange.

He knew that this guy called Quentin was from the Hanluo Sect… did they not come here to catch the Scarecrow? Why did they not recognize the scarecrow now?

However, he did not hide it. He pointed at the giant shadow in the sky and told him.

“He is the scarecrow.”

Boom!!

Garros’s answer made Quentin feel as if he had been struck by lightning.

He had never expected that.

This scarecrow had actually advanced to an A rank in front of his eyes?

How long had he been born?

How could he have advanced to an A rank just like that?

Quentin was filled with disbelief. However, when he shifted his gaze to the huge shadow, he realized that this huge shadow was starting to resemble the scarecrow in his head.

Scythe…

The same weapon.

Combined with the reactions of the people around him, it seemed like there was no mistake.

At this moment, Quentin felt that this world was filled with absurdity.

Was this not scarecrow recently upgraded to B+ rank? Why did it suddenly upgrade to A rank after a trip to the Black Swamp? Could it be that it was so simple to upgrade to A rank now?

He looked at Nikorei from the corner of his eyes.

In the end, he realized that the other party was the same as him, and her face was filled with shock.

It was just that the other party had concealed it quite well, so it was difficult for others to notice.

“Damn it!”

“If I had known earlier that I would have killed this strange creature when I first arrived here!!”

Quentin’s expression was unsightly.

Of course, he was only feeling extremely regretful now.

He did not have the slightest bit of fear.

After all, in his heart, even if this scarecrow really advanced to an A class, it would not be a match for him!

It was just a scarecrow.

Moreover, it was just entering an A rank. Although it was worthy of his attention, it was not to the extent that it made him feel afraid.

Compared to before.

At most, it would just take a little more effort.

Quentin’s face was gloomy as he stared at the huge figure in the distance. He began to calculate in his heart.

However, beside him.

At this moment, Garros’s expression was as fearful as it could be.

Amongst everyone present.

In terms of understanding of the scarecrow, no one could compare to him!

He was also filled with fear towards the scarecrow.

This fear was a fear towards the scarecrow’s terrifying strength.

Back then, when this scarecrow was still at C rank, he was already able to unleash his immense strength and beat up his invincible squad to bits and pieces. Even a B+ rank like him was heavily injured.

Now, this scarecrow was already at A rank.

God knows how strong his opponent was now!

Of course, this was not what frightened him the most.

After all, he was currently beside Nikorei. Even if the scarecrow had really advanced to A rank, it wasn’t likely to be a match for Nikorei at the moment.

What frightened him the most.

The speed at which the scarecrow had advanced!

How long had this Scarecrow been a strange creature?!

It had only been half a year, yet it had already advanced to A rank!

Advertisements

In his impression, even if Nikorei had shocked everyone with her speed of advancement, it was still nothing compared to this scarecrow!

What he was afraid of was not the scarecrow’s strength.

It was his advancement speed!

Even an A rank could not stop him…

After a period of time, he really did not dare to imagine how far this scarecrow could go!!
