Deep in the passage was actually a shaft leading underground, and Xu Shu followed the momentum to enter it, finding it to extend in all directions below.
Fortunately, there were occasional groans guiding Xu Shu, who soon discovered many corpses near a platform.
A humanoid giant, over three meters tall, holding a large axe with a triangular cone-shaped cement cart on its head, was lying on the ground.
It was clutching the head of a human with wide-open eyes, filled with regret, in its left hand, maintaining a climbing-the-ladder posture, but a blood-dark blade was piercing through the forehead completely.
This was obviously a fatal hit, and the giant monster died because of it. Its body was gradually dissolving, with two purple crystals vaguely visible emerging from its abdomen, each entwined with eighteen fibrous threads.
This was clearly a Second-order Peak monster!
And not far away, in the rusty underground passage, lay several human corpses in disarray.
