As they spoke, the lava balls disappeared from the passage. A pressure could be felt emanating from where they had been.
Then, one after another, heavy forms began to slowly emerge from the magma.
Human in shape, they stood taller than Long Yi, extremely robust. Their fiery-red bodies quickly darkened upon emerging, forming rock-like armor that clung tightly to their bodies. Accompanied by heavy steps, new Molten Beasts raised their hands; molten iron flowed from their palms, solidified, forming greatswords.
"New Molten Beasts!" Golden Hammer exclaimed in surprise.
Apparently, previous Molten Beasts were generally made of molten lava and embodied weird shapes, never in human form. But this time, not only was the first a human form, but after that appetizer, a whole pack of human-form Molten Beasts emerged!
"These are all new to me!"
Long Yi hadn't encountered Molten Beasts before. He swung his greatsword, and with a clang, bisected one of the human-shaped Molten Beasts.
