<h4>Chapter 587 Save me! (1)</h4>


    The troops of the Midra Kingdom sped across the ins when they saw their enemies retreating.


    At that moment, their confidence was maxed out and they only had a single thought on their minds.


    ughter the enemy.


    Since they were focused on this one goal, there were certain things that they missed.


    The stones on the ground trembled underneath them, but no one seemed to notice. Even if they did notice, they would have only thought that these stones shaking were just the result of their marching.


    With how many troops there were, it wasn''t strange if the ground trembled under them.


    But that wasn''t what this was.


    At this point, the Midra Kingdom army waspletely on the ins and they were about to catch up to the enemy.


    That was when the ground suddenly copsed under them.


    There were many holes that appeared on the ground and there were soldiers that fell into these holes.


    Not a single person was able to predict that these holes would suddenly open up in the ground, so they weren''t able to stop themselves from falling. Only those that were at the edge were barely able to react in time and jump out of the way so that they didn''t fall into the holes.


    But with how dense their formation was and how wide these holes were, there were quite a few soldiers that fell down.


    The holes were over ten to twenty meters in diameter, covering several hundred troops at once. With the hundreds of holes that appeared, in just a single moment, they lost over ten thousand troops.


    This was considered a devastating event for the Midra Kingdom army.


    In response to this, the soldiers all stopped marching forward and gathered around the holes. All of them had their weapons raised and they were all on guard just in case something happened, but it was clear that they were trying to save theirrades who had fallen in.


    There were some that called out to the ones that fell in while others tried to find ways down in the hole to help the ones that had fallen.


    But they couldn''t see a single thing when they looked into these dark holes.


    The darkness almost seemed like it consumed everything as they looked down, so they weren''t able to see that deep into the hole.


    "Just how deep are these holes?"


    "How would I know?"


    "But what are these holes? Where did theye from?"


    These were the questions that were being asked by the soldiers of the Midra Kingdom army.


    They all had confused looks on their faces as they looked down into these holes.


    After the initial shock disappeared, the officers started to give orders for the rescue of the troops that had fallen down. Though they didn''t know if they were still alive, they would still do their best to save them.


    It was a good thing that the enemy had already retreated, or else this would have been the perfect time to attack.


    But there was a sudden shaking that came from the ground.


    This time, they didn''t mistake this shaking for the shaking that came from their marching.


    This time, they could clearly tell that this shaking wasing from something that was under the ground.


    But just what was this something that was under the ground?


    They didn''t have any information on this, so they really had no idea what this ce was.


    After all, as far as they knew, this should have been a ce that was remote and abandoned. There shouldn''t have been anything here ording to the records they had that dated back several decades.


    Before any of the soldiers could react, there was something that suddenly popped out of the hole in the ground.


    It was just one thing that came out at first, but then there were multiple other things that came out as well.


    These were giant red tubes that soared into the sky aftering out of the ground.


    With the way that they stood, it seemed that they were over ten meters tall. At the same time, it also seemed like theypletely filled the holes that they came out of.


    All of the soldiers just stared in shock as these red things came out of the ground.


    There was a moment of silence as the red things remained still and the soldiers couldn''t move as they stood there in a daze.


    It was during this time that the soldiers recognized that these red things that were poking out of the ground were some kind of giant creature. If they looked at it closely, it seemed like some kind of giant red worm.


    "Is it docile?"


    There was one person that said this before he immediately received his answer.


    The worms suddenly looked down at the soldiers and then opened their mouths that were filled with razor sharp teeth.


    As they opened their mouths, there were some things that dropped down from their opened mouths onto the ground.


    When these thingsnded on the ground, they were able to see what these things were.


    Human parts.


    These were parts of the human body that had been severed!


    As well, they could recognize the armour that these human parts were wearing.


    It was the same armour that the soldiers of the Midra Kingdom were wearing.


    These were parts from the soldiers that had fallen into the hole!


    That answered the question of whether those who had fallen into the hole were still alive or not, but there was another problem.


    It was clear that these giant worms weren''t satisfied just yet.


    Before anyone could raise their weapons, the giant red worms suddenly started to attack.


    Since they didn''t have any weapons raised and weren''t in any formations, the giant red worms hit them like a truck and scattered them all.


    In an instant, the soldiers of the Midra Kingdom were thrown into chaos.


    What they didn''t notice was that there were sharp eyes that were watching from afar.
