Lord of Pets
Chapter 28: The Dark Forest
"windy?"
Bai Wu hurts for a moment, and then some surprises.
The wind shows that the cave is connected to a certain place, not a dead end.
That place may be the real habitat of the Nether Viper!
Bai Wushang stopped hesitating, raised all his vigilance, and went deep into the cave.
In the dark, there are strange noises from time to time, and some bats, rodents, and insects can be vaguely seen, but probably because of the sachet, these creatures did not rush close to Bai Wuhu.
Along the way, Bai Wushang found that the passage had no fork in the road. It was far easier to walk than imagined, but it was too deep and long. It took 30 to 40 minutes to see the exit at the other end.
There is light at the end of the exit, very faint, like the feeling of a faint moonlight at two or three in the middle of the night.
Drilling out of the cave, Bai Wushang saw a shocking scene.
Before my eyes, there is a huge and vast black forest, which is much more vibrant than before. The trees are generally more than fifty meters long, and the gray-black leaves are connected together to prop up the black sky.
Through the gap, one can still see the illusory sun hanging in the sky, but ninety-nine percent of the sunlight is blocked by trees, and only a tiny bit of it can shine on this land.
Darkness, coldness, and dampness are the main theme here. The air is also full of the smell of corruption and mud. Bai Wushang is sure that this is the ideal living environment for the Nether Viper, and it must have ran out from here.
"Woo-Da-Yo——YoDaYo——"
A mellow song came into his ears, Bai Wushang looked for it, and soon saw three or four ghosts.
The translucent blue body has the outline of a two or three-year-old baby, but the eyes are closed tightly, the eyebrows are opened, and the beautiful singing is transmitted from their throats.
"Song ghost?"
Bai Wu hurts suddenly, this is a ghostly supernatural creature that likes to sing, does not have any offensive ability, and has an extremely timid personality.
Seeing strange figures appearing in front of them holding a torch, the singers screamed in terror, and they scattered, and escaped into the darkness in the distance.
Bai Wushang did not stop and continued on.
"Skeleton Archer, Floating Elf, Spring Wood Monster, Shadow Ladybug..."
Along the way, he has seen so many extraordinary creatures, and he is almost dizzy.
Bai Wuhuo clearly noticed that as he gradually deepened into this dark forest, the strength of the active transcendent creatures was rising, and it was almost difficult to see the little guy in the early stage of the larvae.
"Pattern—"
his left foot softened, as if he had stepped on something, Bai Wuhuo reacted extremely quickly, and immediately jumped a step back.
The torch was hanging down, and he saw a mess of mud.
The mud does not exist alone, but stretches to the left, eventually forming a huge black mud puddle that cannot be seen from the edge.
"Such a big quagmire, it is very likely that that kind of creature inhabits..."
Bai Wu was sad, took out a large piece of snake meat, and threw it on the quagmire six or seven meters away.
Mud spots splashed around, the snake meat embedded in the soft muddy surface, sinking inch by inch.
"Wow, wa wa -"
In the distance, the sound of mud surging suddenly sounded, and the movement was very loud.
Bai Wushang held his breath, quietly leaned behind a section of trees, and watched silently.
In the darkness, a pair of dark yellow pupils lit up, the smaller ones are only as big as glass beads, and the larger ones are like light bulbs, revealing the most primitive cold luster of beasts.
When the owners of those pupils approached and began to fight for the ownership of the snake meat, Bai Wushang saw their true colors clearly.
It is an amphibious crawling creature with a flat head and long kisses, eyeballs on the sides of the head, and a long, narrow mouth with sharp teeth.
It has a dark brown body, which seems to be draped in a thick armor. The tail behind it is long and thick, and it can splash a meter or two of mud flowers in the sky with a single blow.
"There really is a marsh crocodile!"
Bai Wushang smiled at the corners of his mouth, and randomly selected a large man to observe the attributes:
[Name]: Marsh crocodile (wild)
[Race]: Monster Beast Realm·Crawling Type·Marsh Mud Crocodile Race
[Life level]: the peak of juvenile body
[Bloodline quality]: mortal bone 6 stars
[Status]: Excited
[Wisdom]: Inferior
[Features]: Bacteria / hardened skin
[Skills]: death roll, mud blow, mud blast, tail flick
【Gourmet Cell】: 24
"Yes, how can the mortal-level 6-star marsh crocodile with the pinnacle of juvenile body reach the 80 points of psychological expectations..."
Bai Wushang thoughts toss, silently evaluate:
"The two major characteristics of the marsh crocodile, one of which is the "disease body", which is the core reason for its survival in the harsh environment of the mire. Therefore, if the marsh crocodile is scratched and bitten by the marsh crocodile, it must be treated in time to avoid being infected by germs. Infect……"
"Secondly, the "hardened skin", the marsh crocodile is shaped like an armor-like body, has a strong defense ability, and is strong in itself. It can resist and fight. It is a nightmare existence..."
"Comprehensively, the positioning of the marsh crocodile is-a fleshy creature with a high output ~ lightnovelpub.net~ even has a certain range of legal system attack skills, and its natural evolution chain is a mature body level. "Black Marsh Crocodile" and full-body level "Sawtooth Crocodile" have excellent abilities and potential..."
"...However, its shortcomings are equally obvious. Part of the marsh crocodile's strength depends on the environment. Fighting in areas such as quagmire, it can often kill higher-level transcendent creatures... But if it arrives on land, its combat effectiveness will drop by at least three. One part and slow speed is a short-board attribute that it cannot avoid..."
Bai Wushang weighed it in his heart, and did not rush to make a choice: "Let’s go further and explore. If you don’t see a better super creature later, I will return here and try to contract the marsh crocodile..."
The one or two pet beasts that the master first contracted will stay with them for a long, long time. It is very important, and no amount of caution can be overstated.
Bai Wuhuo decided to include the marsh crocodile as a candidate, and first note down the coordinates here.
He began to circle the mud pool and carved cross marks on the surrounding trees. This is his usual marking method. It may not be safe and easy to use, but it is convenient enough.
"what……"
Inadvertently, Bai couldn't find that there were human footprints on the muddy ground on the other side of the quagmire.
Observing carefully, the footprints are large and small, it seems that there is more than one person.
"It seems that several people have stayed here, and there are more than a few other students in this dark forest..."
Bai Wushang thoughtfully, jot down this information.
"Go deeper... I hope there will be surprises..."
Bai Wuhuan looked expectant, holding a torch in his left hand and a dagger in his right hand, leaning across the dimensional backpack on his chest, and carrying a long basket on his back, turning around and stepping into the deeper darkness.
