Chapter 752: Prehistoric Crocodile
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Lu Tong noticed that zombie number five had been observing the group of people one by one. For some reason, he felt as if the zombie was selecting her food. Would she eat the ones she liked and throw away the ones she didn’t?
With that thought, Lu Tong’s heart sank slightly. As the female zombie turned to him, he slowly moved behind the others. Lin Hao, Chen Hao, and some others noticed his movement, but didn’t mind.
Yun Meng nodded at zombie number five and said, “Let them pa.s.s one by one.”
The zombie instantly turned back and gave a roar to the zombie crowd behind her. Next, a two-meters wide path showed up in the middle of the zombie crowd.
Chen Hao pushed a man out and said, “You go first!”
“Ah… eh? What?” The one who was pushed out of the group was an average-looking man, about twenty-years-old. He turned around and looked at Chen Hao with confusion, as if he had never thought that he would be pushed out.
“What are you waiting for? Go! Do you want to go to the new base or not?” Chen Hao said to him.
The young man instantly figured out that he was thrown out as a laboratory rat. He didn’t want to do it, yet he had no other choice but to yield under the pressure that Chen Hao gave.
He carefully walked toward the zombie group. His body even became stiff when he went close to the female zombie.
“Roar…” Zombie number five roared at him impatiently, then waved at him to signal for him to move faster.
…
While the group of Hades Base people was having a little problem entering the base, Lin Qiao’s prey started showing up. The peaceful lake surface started rippling, and then a large shadow was seen in the water.
Lin Qiao and her zombies looked down into the water from the treetops and saw the enormous shadow that was over ten meters long and thick in the middle.
As the creature slowly showed its real face from the water, Lin Qiao and her zombies all had a few words popping up in their heads.
A gigantic prehistorical crocodile!
The creature’s rough and leathery skin popped out of the water, covered in plate-shaped and boney scales. On its back was a line of sharp thorns.
The enormous crocodile soon came to the surface. Its slender, icy-cold eyes rose from the water, looking around with a strong intention of killing. Its four strong limbs supported its huge body, walking ash.o.r.e step by step.
Thud! Thud! Every step it made quaked the earth slightly.
Its jaws looked especially strong and teeth were long, thick, and sharp. Slowly, it moved ash.o.r.e and dragged its long and muscular tail out of the water.
Lin Qiao and her zombies observed the giant crocodile from distance. It was as large as a truck, thirty meters long at least. Its tail was no less than fifteen meters long. The crocodile moved ash.o.r.e step by step, spending thirty to forty seconds to leave the water.
On the ground, the giant crocodile released its fierce vibe that spread out like a storm.
Qiu Lili looked at Lin Qiao from the other side of the lake. Lin Qiao shook her head, then raised a hand to give her a hand signal. She signaled for the former to wait until the crocodile was further away from the lake.
The crocodile seemed to be very insensitive to the surrounding vibes, or maybe it didn’t really care.
It moved into the forest. It was enormous, but no loud noises were caused while it was walking. Its steps were slow and steady, still earth-shaking though.
Lin Qiao and her zombies quietly followed behind the crocodile, although they didn’t go too close to it. Even from a long distance, they could sense the crocodile’s ferocious vibe.
The crocodile moved straight as if it was familiar with the area. Soon, it arrived at a clear hill and climbed to the top, then lay on the ground to shower in the sunlight.
It seemed that something heavy always lay on the hilltop, as the hilltop was already flat. Seeing the giant crocodile lay on the hill and close its eyes to bathe in the sun, Lin Qiao figured that it was something the crocodile often did.
Lin Qiao flashed across the air and showed up under the hill, then slightly raised her head to observe the crocodile. The hill was merely about ten meters tall.
Based on the vibe that came out from the crocodile, which looked like a prehistorical monster, it was at the peak of level-six. It hadn’t entered level-seven yet, but was much stronger than ordinary level-six creatures.
As a fierce beast, it was excellent at both defending and attacking.
Lin Qiao made herself invisible, then moved toward the crocodile. As she got close enough, she squatted on the gra.s.s nearby and started to slowly release her black mist. The black mist spread upon the gra.s.s, reaching toward the hilltop. Before long, the mist surrounding the crocodile and drifted before its eyes and nose, then suddenly disappeared inside.
Puff! The crocodile shook its head and let out a breath from its nostrils like a sneeze. However, it didn’t manage to force the black mist out of its body.
Right at that time, a gust of wind could be heard from the surrounding treetops. The crocodile immediately popped its eyes and rolled its eyeb.a.l.l.s.
Next, a hurricane came from all directions, sending waves of sharp wind blades toward it.
Following a series of puffing and swis.h.i.+ng noises, the wind pressed the gra.s.s to the ground and broke the branches. Wherever the wind blades swept across, the gra.s.s and leaves were all shredded and raised into the sky along with clouds of dust and sands.
The wind blades, which cut gra.s.s and trees into pieces, landed on the crocodile, but failed to harm it. Not even a scale of its was cut off.
“Roar…” Being agitated by the wind, the crocodile turned its body. Its huge tail swung back and forth, sending rocks that weighed over fifty kilograms down the hill.
At that point, Lin Qiao suddenly showed her face and leaped backward onto a branch, then swung an arm forward as she sent out a streak of black fire toward the crocodile.
The roaring wind immediately wrapped the fire up and merged with it, forming a circle around the crocodile before shrinking.
“Roar!” Seeing the black fire, the crocodile instantly turned vigilant. It reared up its head and opened its jaws wide, exposing its sharp teeth while turning its head; its tail slapped the ground restlessly.
The fire reached the crocodile’s body and provoked it. It suddenly rushed down the hill, making the earth shake.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Lin Qiao’s black fire was on its tail tip, reaching to the rest of its body along with the tail
“Roar!”
As the battle started, Wu Chengyue on the other side of the forest spared a second to give a glance to the lake area, then continued sending lightning bolts toward the giant turtle. His lightning bolts landed on the turtle’s energy s.h.i.+eld and vibrated it violently, but failed to break it.
The turtle began moving fleetingly toward the lake.
Not even Xiao Licheng’s earth power could stop it from violently b.u.mping its way out. All the earth walls that he created were b.u.mped straight into pieces.
He tried to dig a hole to bury the turtle, but the creature was too fast to fall into any traps. It was even able to take a sudden turn within a blink.
