With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

As they continued forward, they met several more groups of walking dogs that dropped the same fangs as before.

With the fangs that they had collected previously, they had already earned more than a thousand gold coins just from killing these walking dog creatures.

That just went to show how valuable of a crafting material these fangs were.

But of course, that was also because there was a lack of these kinds of crafting materials on the market. Once these fangs from this dungeon became popular, there was no doubt that the price would drop.

So secretly, the mercenaries were already making plans to either stay at this town or come back after reporting in at the Mercenary Guild to continue farming in this dungeon. They wanted to get ahead of the crowd and earn as much money as possible before everyone else came to drop the prices.

As they continued forward, the hallway that they were in eventually started to light up and they found an exit appearing in front of them.

When they came out of the exit and came into the light, they were surprised to find a forest in front of them.

At first they had thought that they had been led outside, but when they looked up and carefully examined the ceiling, they found that the roof was just painted on and the sun was nothing more than a powerful light. As for the horizon in the distance, that was just an image that was painted on the wall.

The mercenaries were surprised by the scale of this underground forest that they had walked in. Only Tian Tian couldn't help feeling that it was all a bit strange and a bit familiar.

This was similar to the forest that they had found in the other ruins back then…

But she shook her head to throw out those thoughts since this was only a coincidence.

Just like how it was a coincidence that Lin Fan had been the one that had found both the ruins and this dungeon…

She fell into deep thought again after this, but she denied this thought after a while.

She decided to go with her gut and trust Lin Fan in the end.

She slowly came back to her senses and was about to lead her group deeper into the forest, but before they could, there was a sound that came from in front of them. It was the sound of the bush in front of them rustling, as if something was there.

They couldn't see what it was, but they didn't dare let down their guards.

Tian Tian said, "Everyone, be careful." Before she and the others all pulled out their weapons that they pointed at the bush that was shaking.

After shaking for a bit longer, there was a circular thing that suddenly jumped out of the bush in front of them.

It landed on the ground and bounced twice before coming to a stop in front of them, letting them see what it really looked like.

When they saw it, they couldn't help being surprised once this was a creature that they had never seen before.

It was like a ball of water that was wrapped up in some kind of outer layer of plastic. The liquid that was kept inside was completely clear and there didn't seem to be any special features with this creature.

It was almost as if it was just a ball of water.

They couldn't even start to imagine just how this creature was able to stay alive like this. After all, it didn't seem like it had any defenses or any ways to get nutrients.

This kind of weak creature seemed like it should have been hunted into extinction by stronger creatures already.

But as if to prove them wrong, there was a rabbit that suddenly appeared as well.

As soon as this rabbit saw this ball of water, it immediately jolted and started to run away. It was just too bad that as soon as the rabbit started to run, the ball of water also noticed it.

The ball of water compacted before suddenly shooting out a small jet of water. This jet of water perfectly hit the rabbit in the neck and cut right through it, sending the rabbit's head flying.

The rabbit didn't even get to take a single step as it suddenly collapsed from the lack of a head.

The ball of water noticed the rabbit drop, so it bounced over to the rabbit. After standing beside it for a second, the ball of water suddenly jumped onto the corpse of the rabbit and brought it inside of itself.

When the rabbit was in the ball of water, it started dissolving at a fast rate.

It turned out that what was inside this ball wasn't actually water, but rather a powerful acid that could melt things quickly. That was how this ball shaped creature was able to get its nutrients.

Moreover, the jet of water that it had shot earlier hadn't stopped with just the rabbit. It had continued forward after decapitating the rabbit and slammed into a tree behind the rabbit.

When Tian Tian's group looked closely at the tree, they saw that the trunk of the tree was already decomposing from the liquid splashed on it.

It seemed like the jet of liquid that the ball had just shot was actually a compressed jet of acid.

Seeing this, a few of the mercenaries with weaker stomachs couldn't help taking a step back. One of them wasn't careful enough and they accidentally stepped on a branch, making a snapping sound.

Once the snapping sound rang out, the ball suddenly turned in their direction.

Although there were no features on it that seemed like eyes or ears, they were still certain that the ball had heard them.

As if to prove this point, the ball suddenly contracted before jumping up, bouncing again and again as it moved closer to them.

One of the mercenaries panicked when they saw this and they immediately pulled out a dagger that they threw at the bouncing ball. However, as soon as the bouncing ball noticed the dagger flying at it, it released a spray of liquid that completely enveloped the dagger.

The dagger was instantly melted by this liquid, but the liquid didn't stop after melting the dagger.

The ball had aimed it perfectly, lining up the dagger and the mercenary who had thrown the dagger. So the jet of liquid was aimed right at the mercenary who had been caught off guard.

Right before the mercenary was hit by the dagger, Tian Tian suddenly pulled that mercenary out of the way.

The spray of liquid fell onto the grass that was behind the mercenary and started melting a hole in the ground, showing just how powerful it was.

Every mercenary trembled when they saw this and they started taking cover, but at the same time, they knew that the ball wouldn't let them escape that easily. So they also pulled out their weapons and faced the ball, looking for a chance to attack it.

The ball was smart and didn't just head towards them in a straight line. It bounced back and forth in a zigzag pattern, making sure to dodge any attacks that could come at it. At the same time, it didn't let up with the sprays of liquid, shooting out jet after jet at them.

But this time, the mercenaries were prepared and had taken cover, so the jets never hit them once.

The problem though was that the jets of liquid had completely pinned them, so they were currently trapped in the places that they were hiding. Then there was the fact that this ball was slowly getting closer to them.

It was only slowly getting closer because it was moving slowly to shoot these jets of acid at them, but it was still getting closer.

If they didn't do anything, they would surely be pinned down and taken out by this ball.

Thinking of the scene of the slime being digested inside the ball, they couldn't help giving a shudder.

None of them wanted to end up like this, but there was nothing that they could do against this ball. After all, the acid that it shot out was even strong enough to melt their weapons.

What could they do against this?

Seeing that they were about to face being wiped out, Tian Tian had no choice but to pull out her trump card.

She pulled a sword out of nowhere and charged forward at the ball.

The ball was surprised to see Tian Tian charging at it, but it didn't stop its attacks. Instead, it targeted all the jets of acid that it shot out at Tian Tian instead.

Tian Tian was able to dodge most of these jets of acid, but there were still some that she couldn't dodge. So in the end, she was forced to block the jets of acid that were shooting at her with her weapon.

When Tian Tian raised the sword in her hand to face the jets of acid aimed at her, all of the mercenaries started worrying about her.

They had seen what had happened to their weapons when they blocked the jets of acid, so they had no reason to doubt that Tian Tian's weapon would be any different.

However, to their surprise, they found that Tian Tian was able to cut right through the jet of acid, causing it to splash out around her.

After cutting through this, she immediately charged at the ball who was bouncing there, still shooting out jets of acid.

With one swift slash, the ball was cut in half and the remaining liquid and the corpse of the rabbit it was still digesting fell to the ground.

As expected, the liquid that had been held inside was also acidic as it burnt a hole in the ground.
