Chapter 629: The Secret of Thunder Mountain
Thunder Mountain.
Bai Qi sat on a chair made of vines made by Cordyceps, looked down at the dense forest below, and said, "It should be nearby, let's go down first."
"Good chief."
Cordyceps nodded, immediately lowered its altitude, and landed steadily on a lake in the middle of the woods.
"The trees in Leishan are very well nourished. They are so strong and sturdy."
Bai Qi couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the huge trees around him that were over ten meters tall and so thick that five or six people would have to hug them.
"It should be affected by the natural forces here. The same is true for my Green Dragon Secret Realm."
Nicholas looked around curiously and sniffed, but still didn't find what he wanted.
"Nicholas, you don't have to worry about it. At least what we found is not a dead green dragon, right?"
Bai Qi immediately comforted her upon seeing this.
“It seems so.”
Nicholas's expression immediately improved a lot after hearing this, and he said, "I found traces of the green dragon's activities in the Emerald Dream. Maybe it is resting in some unknown place."
"It's very possible. Let's look around first. Maybe we'll find something new."
Bai Qi nodded slightly. Nicholas had already shared his discovery about Leishan with him.
Considering that the skeleton in the Zhelong Stone is clearly an Eastern dragon, but the creatures in the Zhelong Cave have awakened the bloodline of Western dragons, the secrets under Leishan may be more complicated than they thought.
Therefore, their purpose of coming to Leishan to kill monsters this time, in addition to collecting insect guards for Cordyceps, was also to explore the secrets of Leishan.
"Yes, I will also go to the Emerald Dream to see if there are any new clues. There are many Emerald Dream players in this area, so maybe they can help."
Nicholas nodded and went straight into the Emerald Dream.
"Then let's get started too."
Bai Qi stretched himself, summoned all his pets, glanced at the data on the task board, and said, "The closest one to us should be the king beast Cangshui crocodile that lives in this lake. Who of you will go?"
"We need to promote Emperor sooner rather than later, and let the others go."
Shuke rejected Bai Qi without hesitation. Beta, who was originally excited to go into the water to catch fish, suddenly became extremely frustrated.
In order to avoid further division of their three consciousnesses, they have now returned to living together.
Shuke and Jerry both said they didn't care about this. One concentrated on studying rune machinery, and the other concentrated on meditation and striving to improve himself.
Beta, as the main consciousness, could only be dragged along. Apart from continuing to evolve his indestructible golden body, there was nothing else he could do.
Ahhhhhhh…
(I want to go out and play...)
"Forget about it for now. We don't know where the material for evolving the soul is. Just try it on your own first."
Looking at the Husky lying on the ground with a listless face, Bai Qi rubbed its head and a sunny smile appeared on his face.
"But if you change the face of the indestructible golden body into a dog's face, we will eat dog meat tonight."
Click, click?
(Dog meat? Where?)
Gamma perked up when he heard that. Although he had a majestic appearance similar to an angel, he looked like a foodie, which was extremely discordant.
"Gamma, please pay attention to your image. Your current look doesn't match your eating habits."
Bai Qi looked at Gamma, who had grown to the same size as Alpha, and said, "It means that the Borg family is gone now. If they saw their angel in this form, they would probably kill me."
Ahhhhhhh…
(I think if they knew about this now, they would come after you and kill you...)
Bai Qi: "Gama, heat the oil in the pan!"
Ahhhh!
(I was wrong!)
boom!!!
Just when the pets were playing, a blue crocodile suddenly jumped out of the originally calm lake. Its huge body of about 20 meters was very oppressive even to its appearance.
As the ruler of this lake, the Cang Shui crocodile naturally noticed the approach of Bai Qi and his companions very early on. When Bai Qi and his companions were playing, it quietly approached them and did not launch a sudden attack until it was within their attack range.
However, just when the Cangshui crocodile opened its mouth and was about to swallow Bai Qi and other pets in one gulp, it suddenly felt a cold light shining on its eyes. Before it could see clearly what it was, a terrifying pressure suppressed it and it dared not move.
Crunch.
(Be quiet and wait for the boss to decide who will take care of you.)
Alpha held the sword in his hand and pointed it at the eyes of the Cangshui crocodile. The sharp sword intent locked the Cangshui crocodile firmly. If the opponent made any unusual movement, it would be killed directly.
"Alpha, be careful and don't freak out."
Seeing this, Bai Qi waved to Alpha , and then continued to look at the remaining pets.
"Alpha and Gamma are Emperor creatures, so don't go. Shuke, you guys go back and continue your training. Delta, Epsilon, and Jetta, who of you three will go and train?"
Bloopers.
(Delta is fine, just follow the master's orders.)
Snoring.
(I still have a bottle of drink left and don’t want to go.)
"How about you come down again, Chief?"
Seeing this, Chongcao took the initiative to step forward and said.
"Then let Epsilon come. If his fighting ability is good enough, just parasitize him. We don't have any water-attribute insect guards anyway."
Bai Qi nodded, took a few steps back to make room, and Alpha put away his sword and returned to Bai Qi.
Bai Qi snapped his fingers, signaling both sides to start, but the Cangshui crocodile seemed to have not yet reacted to Alpha's intimidation and just stood there stupidly without moving.
"Chief, is this guy stupid?"
Chongcao looked at Cangshui Crocodile with some concern and said, "If it's so stupid, why don't you just not use it as a parasite?"
"It's okay. After being parasitized by you, no matter how smart I am, I will become a fool anyway."
Bai Qi didn't care and said, "Let's get started. We still have many goals to solve."
"Okay."
Chongcao nodded and was about to take action when the Cangshui crocodile suddenly reacted, roared, and the lake behind him suddenly raised a wave of water, which hit Chongcao.
"You are very brave, Epsilon, please be gentle."
Seeing the Cang Shui crocodile's actions, Bai Qi nodded with satisfaction. The Cang Shui crocodile is a medium-level king with good melee and water combat abilities, so Bai Qi chose to clear it out here first.
This guy was clearly intimidated by an emperor creature like Alpha, but he still dared to fight. Although he was a bit stupid, he was indeed good in terms of courage.
"Don't worry, Chief. I understand."
Cordyceps flapped its wings and nimbly avoided the attack of the Cangshui crocodile. The sun was shining brightly above its head, and the waves that were originally overwhelming and seemed to wash away Bai Qi and others evaporated in an instant.
Faced with the terrifying heat above its head, the Cang Shui Crocodile turned around without hesitation and swam towards the depths of the lake, which was in stark contrast to its ferocious appearance when it summoned the waves.
You can resist, but you will definitely not be able to win. The best thing to do is to take advantage of the terrain and escape.
"Good fellow, you can actually feint?"
Bai Qi couldn't help but laugh when he saw this, and Chongcao seemed to be fooled by the other party's reaction and did not chase him directly.
But soon, a white belly floated in the middle of the lake, and it was the water crocodile that had just escaped.
As early as the moment Cordyceps opened the blue sun, the Cang Shui crocodile had already been eroded by the Cordyceps' dream power. When it returned to the lake and relaxed its mind, it fell asleep directly.
Seeing this, Cordyceps flew to the side of the Cangshui crocodile, gently touched the crocodile's head, and after confirming that the other party was asleep, he stabbed the tail needle into the crocodile's body.
In an instant, the rich paralyzing toxin corroded the entire body of the Cang Shui crocodile. The Cang Shui crocodile didn't even have time to react and completely lost the power to resist. As a ball of green energy was injected into it, changes began to occur .
The originally fat belly began to shrink, and the scales on the body fell off one by one, replaced by dragon scales, and two pairs of wings as thin as cicada wings grew on the originally sturdy carapace.
The biggest change, naturally, is the pair of small green eyes of the Cangshui crocodile.
“This shape is a dragonfly?”
Looking at the pair of compound eyes that took up most of the Cangshui crocodile's head, Bai Qi couldn't help but smack his lips and said, "Epsilon, are you sure these Zerg traits are random?"
"Well, the immortal insect exuvia contains a large number of Zerg genes, all of which are contained in the insect eggs. I don't know which specific genes will appear."
Epsilon shook his head, looked at the Water Crocodile that had completely transformed into a Dragonfly Dragon, and pulled back its tail needle.
"Forget it, let it be random, it won't affect the combat power anyway."
Bai Qi nodded slightly, looked at the dragonfly dragon flying close to the water surface under the control of Cordyceps, and said: "But the combination of dragonfly and crocodile is really a bit..."
“Weird.”
Upon hearing this, Chongcao nodded repeatedly and raised his head with some pride.
Including the Zerg Guard and the Zerg Dragon awakened by the awakening potion, he is the only one who perfectly combines the advantages of the Zerg and Dragon clans. This appearance is definitely the most handsome one.
As for Chongwei, it’s better if he has a weird appearance, otherwise how can he highlight his handsomeness.
"Okay, now that we've taken care of this, let's go to the next place."
Bai Qi instructed Chongcao to put away the dragonfly dragon, searched the task board, and said, "The next target is the earth-type king beast Yugongjia beast."
"Okay, Chief, please come up. I'll take you directly over."
Chongcao nodded, put Bai Qi on his back, and continued to fly towards the depths of Leishan Mountain.
…
The other side of Leishan.
Several hateful butchers pulled out their bloody meat hooks from a ferocious beast, then wielded their butcher knives to skillfully cut it apart and attached the flesh to themselves.
"Thunder Mountain has started to move again. The blood and flesh activity of the fierce beasts in the mountain has increased a lot."
A figure walked out from under the shadow of the tree, looked at the piece of meat that was gradually merging into the body of the hateful butcher, and said.
"Um."
The other man nodded, put away the Hateful Butcher, and said, "But Director, if it's just for this flesh and blood, there's no need for us to come here in person, right?"
"Oh~ Of course it's not just for this."
The man raised his head, looked at the mountains in the distance , and said, "There are many more things buried under Leishan Mountain than you think."
