The Human Giant

As Yoze was swimming through the ground, he suddenly felt his heart tighten. A wave of danger alerted his instincts before losing most of its danger, and he only was left with five percent of its original power. 

"What was that? Did the Witch make a move?" Yoze\'s face turned grim as he couldn\'t sense anything was near him. 

His entire surroundings were pitch black from the lack of light. However, it seemed to be more beautiful than the night sky, as tens of thousands of small spiritual energies coming from the creatures of the underground acted as stars. Even though he didn\'t pay attention to every individual spiritual energy, he was certain that there was nothing out of the ordinary.

However, not feeling that anything had changed or was out of the ordinary only made him more uneasy. He wanted to use this opportunity to lure out the Witch and be able to get rid of this lurking threat.

Luckily with his persistence, he was able to find the general location of where the threat came from. When he noticed that the Witch was hiding somewhere in Justice Town, which caused his face to turn grim, though he wanted to kill the Witch before they turned into a problem, he didn\'t want to enter the town in fear that he would only cause it to be destroyed, along with thousands of innocent lives being lost.

There was also the high likelihood that Justice Town was the Witch\'s base of operation and thus was the most dangerous location for him. If he went toward the town, there was a possibility that he would fall into another formation. 

It had only been a few minutes since he had escaped from the formation on Gospel Peak, and from how the town\'s environment transformed into a ghost town the moment the Witch and Slug demon took action, it was a guarantee that there was another formation or two. With such a possibility, he quickly predicted what would happen if he ignored the danger and went into town.

Within less than a second, he knew his outcome wouldn\'t be good. From the scenario he created in his mind, the moment he was trapped inside the Witch\'s formation, the Slug demon would take action. With both of these threats ganging up on him, he would have no choice but to use all his power regardless of the safety of the town and its people.

Ultimately, even if he could survive, he would be seriously injured, and the town would be destroyed. This wasn\'t an outcome he wanted to experience again, so if he could avoid it, he would.

"At this moment, the Witch had finally made a move, but so far, it doesn\'t look like I have been discovered. The Witch may have only safeguarded the town by setting up a dangerous formation there."

"From my current direction, I am heading toward the town, so that could explain why I felt there was extreme danger. But it doesn\'t explain why it suddenly shrunk by more than 95 percent." Yoze thought to himself as he raised his guard even higher than before.

Carefully looking around his surroundings for anything he missed, he suddenly noticed a strange and mysterious force attracting him to another direction. It was away from the town or the Slug demon, instead towards a small frozen lake named Everest Lake.

Everest Lake blocked a path on his map that would lead away from the mountain that Justice Town was on. However, this path was only considered blocked by ordinary people\'s standards, but for him, this was just another path.

Since this path was accessible to him, it was one of the many directions he thought about taking when he first entered the underground world. It was even the direction that Mindless Legs wanted to go when it planned on escaping from this battle with the Slug demon.

Unfortunately, Mindless Legs\'s plan couldn\'t come to fruition as he took over after discovering that his spiritual energies were attracting the Slug demon like a magnet. With him in full control, he changed his path to swim directly toward Justice Town to lure out the hidden Witch.

However, strangely he felt as if something was trying to lure him away from Justice Town. He could only imagine that this strange force must have come from the hidden Witch, but he didn\'t understand why he would try to get him to take this path.

He couldn\'t feel any danger coming from this path, and if anything, he knew that this was an easy escape route since the Slug demon would never expect him to run away from the battle without trying to gain anything. Even though he had no idea why the Witch would want him to escape, he decided to bite the bullet and follow along.I think you should take a look at

He could always come back if there was nothing there. As for whether this was a trap that the Witch had laid out for him, he didn\'t plan on showing any mercy and would kill the Witch as soon as he appeared.

After making up his mind, Yoze swiftly changed the direction he was digging and followed where this strange force was taking him. As he followed along, he felt the dangerous sensation slowly decrease before reaching a low point of two percent without decreasing further.

Even though there was still hidden danger, Yoze didn\'t pay attention to any of it as he was enthralled with what he smelled. He smelled a thick scent of watermelon, fresh vegetables, and a multitude of refreshing scents coming from a nearby area.

Even without any air, the smell found its way into his nose and buried deep into his brain as it triggered the spiritual energies in his body. Each of the four spiritual energies became intoxicated with the smell and deeply desired whatever was producing the smell. 

Yoze felt his eyes beginning to water and his mouth drool as he knew clearly what could produce this smell; he had consumed it before, Life spiritual energy. He had once consumed the life spiritual energy of the Serpent demon egg, which not only allowed him to safely collect the Serpent demon\'s talents. But since the Serpent demon was still being born, he could devour its Life spiritual energy and transform it into more of the Serpent demon\'s green and oppressive spiritual energy.

Unfortunately, after his first experience with the Serpent demon\'s egg, he never saw another demon egg. Unexpectedly he would stumble upon another demon egg from a random mission. From the intensity of the smell, the amount of life\'s spiritual energy was far higher than the Serpent demon.

"What is this witch planning? Did they betray the Slug demon in favor of me to kill its offspring? Could it be that they don\'t want me to destroy Justice Town?" As Yoze\'s mind raced to come up with the Witch\'s motives, his body went into action and dug directly toward the source of the life\'s spiritual energy.

Even though he knew that there was a possibility that there was a trap, he knew that he needed to go. Because all the spiritual energies in his body were going on a rampage to try and escape so they could devour the life spiritual energy, he didn\'t have much of a choice, or he would risk a backlash.

"If I am not mistaken, the chances that the life spiritual energy is coming from demon eggs is high. If it comes from demon eggs, then the only possibility is that these eggs belong to the Slug demon."

"I don\'t believe that the Slug demon could live in this mountain for more than a decade and not discover that there was a cluster of demon eggs underneath its nose. So these eggs must be its children that it decided to nurture." as Yoze concluded that he was about to eat the Slug demon\'s children, he couldn\'t help but feel a bit weird.

He had come over here on a mission to save a town from the Slug demon, but with him planning on eating its children, he almost felt that he was the villain. But he didn\'t let that feeling last long and erased it to clear his head.

Instead, he needed to focus on what he would do if another demon protected these demon eggs. He didn\'t know much about Banana Slugs, and he knew nothing about how demon banana slugs reproduce. 

Still, from his instincts, which he got from copying from the Banana Slug demon, there shouldn\'t be any other demons protecting these eggs. Even though he felt that the odds were in his favor, he still made up a loose plan on what he needed to do in case there was a hidden demon or any type of trap.

After swimming for a mile in the same direction, Yoze noticed that the direction the strange force tried to lure him and the direction of the source of the life spiritual energy diverged. The source of life, spiritual energy, took a deep dive into the mountain\'s depths while the strange force wanted him to continue traveling toward Everest Lake.

Without hesitation, Yoze immediately dived toward the life spiritual energy and temporarily ignored the strange force. What he found interesting was that even though he no longer followed the strange force, the sense of danger he felt didn\'t increase.

It remained at its two percent mark even with this divergence which wasn\'t true when he tried to head back towards Justice Town. Since he didn\'t have much information on this strange force, he could only think that the Witch didn\'t mind this small divergence.
