Darren had only two options. It was either he killed the three dark red creatures, or he ran away without looking back.
"I will go all out!"
He finally decided that it was time to collect some soul crystals. After all, running away had never been his style.
Whoosh!
Darren rushed towards one of the dark red patrolmen. He was so fast that his speed had reached its limit.
His goal was very simple. He would try his best to kill one first.
In an instant, violent sword intent and overbearing blade intent surged like a river. Their perfectly connected moves were shown one by one, and their combined power reached the limit of Darren's strength.
But as his attack was about to reach the dark red patrolman, a transparent shield appeared around him.
"You ignorant fool. Do you really think you can kill me?"
The dark red patrolman found Darren ridiculous. The defensive shield he used contained a faint trace of the chief god's will. It was given to them by their great emperor. He didn't believe that Darren could break it with just his strength.
But the next moment, the smile on the patrolman's face instantly vanished. He twitched when he felt that his heart exploded into pieces inside his body.
"No! What is going on with me? This is impossible!"
Until his death, the patrolman was still in utter disbelief. He couldn't accept that the protective shield bestowed to them by their great emperor was broken by someone like Darren so easily.
It was something he had never thought to happen. He had encountered creatures ten times stronger than Darren before. But none of them had ever broken the shield given by their emperor.
Darren was actually surprised too.
He had already felt that the defensive shield of the dark red patrolman just now was guarded by an extremely strong force. So he knew that he was unlikely to break it. But since he had no other choice, he still took the risk and rushed over to attack the patrolman.
Much to his surprise, he hadn't felt any hindrance when he directly penetrated through the creature's body.
"It must be the black god's power. It directly ignored the defensive shield," Darren murmured. He just realized that his black god's power did an extraordinary performance.
But for whatever reason why the black god's power did so, he didn't have time to think about it right now.
After killing one patrolman, Darren immediately released a stream of god's power to compress his soul.
"Huh? Such great gains!"
The dark red patrolman was not very powerful, but his soul was compressed into thousands of kilograms of soul crystals. It was completely beyond Darren's expectation.
The soul crystals he obtained from compressing the soul of the patrolman was several times more than he got from the fiend he had met earlier.
"Ahhh!"
the remaining two dark red patrolmen roared in hoarse and sharp voices.
"Are they going insane?" Darren wondered. But he remained calm. He had killed one patrolman without getting hurt, so he was confident that he could also kill these other two without difficulty.
"Oh, no. They are transmitting a signal." It was a few moments later that Darren realized that the two patrolmen were sending a signal to ask for help.
Whoosh!
Without hesitation, Darren flew into the distance.
The two patrolmen didn't chase after him. They let him escape, which gave him a bad feeling.
A short while later, the thick clouds in the sky began to surge again.
"Oh, my God!"
When Darren's god's sense penetrated through the thick clouds, he found a dark red creature who was several thousand feet tall, holding a steel trident in his hand.
The aura of the giant dark red creature was dozens of times stronger than the patrolman he had killed just now.
He was not someone Darren could contend with.
"I can't run forward this time." After thinking for a while, Darren changed his direction to escape. "I have to go back to the mangy hen."
He didn't care whether Corissa would help him or not. But he had to reach there first. After all, there were many chicks in that territory. Even if Corissa wouldn't help him directly, she still had to protect her children.
Darren couldn't help thinking that he was being a little despicable. However, he had to do it to survive.
With all his strength, he flew away. Sometimes he went underground, and sometimes he rushed into the mountains to misdirect the dark red creature pursuing him.
