Chapter 238: the monster
Translator: 549690339
going all the way down, other than wasting some time, there was no danger.
when he was about a hundred meters underground, bai wushang found that the goblins still didn’t move.
after some thought, he activated the “turtle breathing talisman” to be on the safe side.
this talisman was very valuable. he spent 100 secret energy points to buy it, which was equivalent to more than 10000 gold coins each.
bai wushang was still willing to do so. he wanted to confirm what the situation was like in this nest.
ah zhou had activated the calm eyes in advance. together with latent shadow, he was able to conceal his aura to the greatest extent.
the little rabbit hid in his arms obediently and peeked through the gap, not daring to stick its head out.
after all, its eyes were too bright, like stars in the dark, a bright target.
“ah zhou, can you see what’s down there?”
fifty meters away, it just happened to be at the edge of bai wushang’s spatial perception.
due to the distance, there were no details to speak of. he could only vaguely sense that there were many living beings.
however, ah zhou’s polycoria gave him powerful night vision. he could definitely see clearly.
even the milky way was the same. it was an expert at night activities.
“green-skinned, yellow-skinned …”
ah zhou poked his head out from the side of the mountain wall and looked down.
then, through the contract, he added, ” “very young, very young.”
bai wushang’s heart skipped a beat as he came up with a theory:
“could it be … a newborn?”
by referring to the field of view, he asked repeatedly to obtain new information.
bai wushang tiptoed to the ground, sticking close to the cold and damp cave, and approached a green light spot.
with the help of a luminous pearl that was emitting a hazy light, combined with his spatial perception, he had a preliminary understanding of the true situation underground.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtbaby-sized goblin cubs were curled up in some kind of flower bud-like flesh sac.
they were very small and all of them were in the early stage of the juvenile form.
her skin was wrinkly, as if she had just been born.
he didn’t even open his eyes.
what made bai wushang’s hair stand on end was that there was a thin and long tube-like substance in the belly button of these little goblins.
it was like an octopus’s tentacle, extending from a distance and piercing into his body.
then, wisps of red mist-like energy gushed into the tube.
in the status column of the attribute panel, a few very rare and special messages appeared.
he used rapid growth!
‘forced growth’!
sleep! sleep!
using all his strength to sense the surrounding space, bai wushang confirmed that every goblin was connected to the soft tubes.
in other words, they were all in a special state!
this situation was beyond bai wushang’s expectations.
no matter what, he would never have thought that the reason the green dots of light were still was because they were growing rapidly under the control of some kind of power.
he carefully observed the soft tubes.
it was obvious that this was not a technological product, but some kind of flesh and blood.
the surface was covered with mucus, the tip was thin, and the end was gradually fat, leading to the depths of the darkness.
” what kind of transcendent creature can give birth to goblins in such a large scale? ”
bai wushang started brainstorming, and a thought suddenly crossed his mind:
“is it a new variant? or some unknown mutation?”
he then thought of the goblin invasion of this mountain range. it had only been ten years, and they had almost devoured everything.
according to mu tianxing’s information, there was no lack of mystic general rank powerhouses who brought their pets of the complete level to clear the area.
however, they could not be completely exterminated.
it wouldn’t take long for them to make a comeback and occupy it again.
in fact, the number of them was getting larger and larger, and there was a trend of increasing intensity.
” is it possible that the owner of this tentacle is the main culprit behind the goblins ‘flood? ”
bai wushang couldn’t help but have this thought.
although it was a little exaggerated.
however, the possibility of this conclusion could not be ignored.
at the end of the day, this nest was too well-hidden, and it was planted six to seven hundred meters underground.
if it wasn’t for the item seeking compass, bai wushang wouldn’t have been able to detect the abnormality.
it was even more impossible to find the exact location and come here.
” i can’t identify this tentacle with my cognitive eye … ”
bai wushang’s eyes flickered. ” a similar phenomenon generally means that this is not the monster’s main body, or it is not the main body part. ”
“it’s a dispensable, disposable, or newly added body tissue …”
under the cover of the turtle breathing talisman, bai wushang walked two or three hundred meters in the direction of the source of the tentacles.
on the way, a large number of azure eyes and white eyes were in the flesh sac, absorbing nutrients and growing rapidly.
no variants were found.
other than the sound of energy transmission, it was dead silent.
but … bai wushang didn’t dare to relax or be careless.
what a joke. an existence that could link up to a thousand goblins at once was terrifying just thinking about it.
and that monster was in the darkness not far away. it couldn’t be too far.
the stench in the air was getting stronger and stronger. he could vaguely sense that a powerful life form was lurking in front of him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmbai wushang didn’t know what it was, but the turtle breathing talisman should have been in effect, covering his aura and life fluctuations.
the other party had yet to discover him and was still in a certain ” quiet ” state.
“this distance … should be enough! there’s no need to get any closer!”
he stopped in his tracks. the monster was already within the range of his spatial perception.
it was extremely huge, definitely more than twenty meters.
the outline of its body was like an oval egg, its surface uneven and full of wrinkles.
two super tentacles as thick as a bull, one on the left and one on the right, like the left and right arms, were attached to its body.
then, it continued to split, forming thousands of small tentacles of different lengths.
what was even more terrifying was that this monster was dormant.
however, the aura of life gave people the illusion of a vast ocean, heavy, deep, and frightening.
” this thing is definitely not a mature one. it seems to be stronger than the dark fiend tiger … ”
bai wushang was certain, and then he looked at the route they had taken to come here, quickly deducing all the plans in his heart.
an accident could happen at any minute or second.
he didn’t hesitate. after preparing everything, he slowly raised his right hand.
he gently wiped the storage ring on his ring finger, injected a wisp of soul power, and took out an illumination talisman.
it was immediately activated and thrown in the direction of the monster.
in an instant, a strong light bloomed.
bai wushang’s eyes finally saw the monster’s full appearance.
compared to spatial perception, what could be seen with the naked eye, after being rendered with bright colors, could highlight its ferocity and strangeness.
its entire body was dark green in color and had the skin of a toad.
the lower half of his body was embedded in the rock, while the upper half was exposed and motionless.
almost at the same time as the light flickered, it opened the ten eyes on its abdomen and opened its bloody mouth at the belly button at the same time, screaming madly.
“garu!”
