Chapter 825: Evolution Of The Night Fiend
All of a sudden, it was as if they had received some kind of signal, or perhaps a command. The Night Fiends, who had previously been drifting about like aimless spirits, abruptly grew restless.
Ssss-raaah!
One of the Night Fiends lunged at a nearby companions, fast as lightning. The sudden attack startled Li Xiaofei. The creature's speed was far greater than he had initially assessed. It moved so quickly that it left behind a faint afterimage in the air.
In the blink of an eye, the Night Fiend closed in on its companion. Its four long arms wrapped around the target, and claws as sharp as hooked blades pierced deep into the other’s body. At the same time, a mouth filled with rows of razor-sharp teeth clamped down fiercely on its companion’s neck.
The attacked Night Fiend reacted a moment too late, but its long, jagged tail whipped around like a javelin. It struck first despite reacting later, and pierced clean through the attacker's skull. A spray of dark red brain matter exploded outward.
Zzzzzz!
The blood splattered across the ground and began sizzling, eating into the stone-paved floor and forming several irregular pits. The sight made Li Xiaofei suck in a sharp breath once again.
He knew from experience just how solid the stone slabs of the Heaven Ruins were. Even a full-force strike from him might not leave a dent. Yet the Night Fiend’s blood could corrode it so easily.
If that had landed on a human, wouldn’t it melt through flesh and gut them instantly? These creatures... really defy all logic.
In the very next moment, nearly all of the Night Fiends suddenly went berserk as they launched frenzied attacks on their companions. A savage, all-out massacre erupted. It was kill or be killed.
The scene left even Huang Dinggou stunned.
“What the hell is going on?” Li Xiaofei muttered, “Why are these monsters turning on each other?”
