Chapter 552: Chapter 552 Forcible Accommodation (Request for Monthly Ticket)

"Go!"

An old office building collapsed directly, exploding into countless steel bars and concrete blocks, scattering in all directions.

From the gaps, Zhong Shenxiu threw a grappling hook, landing on the surface of another tall building, and his whole body took off from the ground, avoiding a large amount of falling rocks from the sky.

Zola, holding Rachel in one hand and Joz in the other, exerted strength in her legs, nimbly moving among the scattered rocks.

Their target was the river by the broken bridge.

As long as they crossed the river, they could at least escape the chase of the monsters on this side!

In Zola’s view, she was a mutated warrior, powerful enough to carry two people.

Whereas Li Wei was just a laborer, barely managing to use the 3D maneuver gear without training, which was already remarkable. Taking someone with him would only put both in jeopardy, so she undertook the task herself.

In a sense, she was a good person.

Zhong Shenxiu secretly judged and cried out as he watched Zola pass by an old residential building, "Be careful..."

Crackle!

From the darkness of the hallway and from within many windows, countless crimson tongues stretched out, swiftly sweeping towards Zola.

"Keep going!"

Zola threw Rachel to Zhong Shenxiu, somersaulted, pulled out a short-handled handgun, aimed at those tongues, and furiously fired.

Bang bang!

She severed many tongues, which fell to the ground, oozing out disgusting yellow pus.

But Zola was still grabbed by a tongue around the ankle, and her whole body was instantly dragged into the residential building.

Just as Zhong Shenxiu was preparing to rush in to save her, he saw a wall collapse and Zola burst back out, but Joz was nowhere to be seen.

"Let’s go..."

Zola said without any expression on her face.

Zhong Shenxiu nodded, and the two of them ran a distance and saw the wide river.

Without hesitation, Zola and Zhong Shenxiu both dove into the river.

Countless creatures that seemed like worms or water snakes quickly fled, forming two empty areas in the water.

Zhong Shenxiu swam a long distance underwater before finally surfacing, looking at the monsters on the shore.

Some of them were dual-headed, four-armed giant beasts, each arm grotesquely formed and covered with tumors; others seemed like a mountain made up of countless beetles clustering together, looking as one entity but also like they could split any moment.

Plus, there was a bizarre creature hidden within a patch of Black Fog, with only countless crimson tongues sticking out.

The only common feature was that they all belonged to the monster class; each possessed a unique form that could contaminate a careful observer.

But at that moment, these three powerful monsters lingered at the edge of the river, daring not to come close.

As if, within the river, there lurked an indescribable terror!

’They would certainly not fear any ordinary monsters, then that means... what I saw that day was right... Beneath this river, there still lurks an extremely terrifying monster... A god-rank?’

’Lucky... for it, we are just a few ants, hardly noticeable, the type it wouldn’t care about?’

’But that’s not right... We might carry the secretion of another god-rank creature on us...’

Zhong Shenxiu scrutinized the riverbed but could no longer see the huge shadow he had seen that day.

Not long after, he and Zola, carrying the unconscious Rachel, arrived at the other side of the river.

Plop!

Zola punched Rachel in the stomach, and the unconscious Rachel coughed up a lot of river water.

"I think... she almost drowned."

Zhong Shenxiu, brow deeply furrowed, could not help but say.

"We should rest here for a bit before we prepare to cross through the Comoros Giant Beast territory..."

Zola sighed.

She knew that last time they had angered the beast.

And the creature was still patrolling nearby, the chances of safely passing through its territory were slim.

They could only try to enhance their condition first.

’This place might not be safe...’

Just as Zhong Shenxiu was about to speak, he suddenly felt a strong palpitation.

Splash!

Above the great river, the surface exploded, revealing a black serpentine tail. Each scale on it seemed to be composed of layers of mysterious symbols, creating a rich three-dimensional effect.

’It’s that riverbed monster...’

’I told you... Although we are ants, carrying the aura of other divine calamities, something could still go wrong.’

Zhong Shenxiu closed his eyes without thinking.

Even so, he felt as if he had been struck by a heavy hammer, his eardrums buzzed, and blood flowed from his nostrils.

This was the powerful spiritual impact brought on by directly facing a divine calamity level creature!

"Don’t look at it!"

Zhong Shenxiu could only shout this one line, but it was already too late.

Zola, wearing goggles, instinctively looked toward the snake tail, gazing at the scales composed of intricate three-dimensional mystical symbols.

She saw the three-headed dependant beasts on the opposite bank, which seemed to recognize a natural predator and turned to run, but it was too late.

The four-armed beast contaminator was effortlessly swept into the river by the black tail, disappearing with barely a few bubbles...

’Is it feeding? Fortunately... we are not big enough to even get stuck in its teeth...’

Just as this thought emerged in Zola’s mind, her eyes filled with blood, and veins around her eyes emerged and writhed like earthworms.

She had looked directly at a divine calamity, her spirit had been impacted, and she was losing control!

"Kill me, kill me!"

Zola fell to the ground, rolling around as her hair wildly grew longer and thicker, emitting a ferocious howl.

"Sorry..."

Zhong Shenxiu raised his firearm and suddenly struck her neck with the butt of the gun, knocking her unconscious.

Even unconscious, her transformation continued, obviously unable to last much longer.

"Ah... I’m also powerless..."

"After all, I have no spiritual skills..." Zhong Shenxiu thought for a moment, then suddenly pulled out the Spirit of the Faceless crystal left behind.

"Maybe, try this?"

He couldn’t help but think, "This place is relatively safe, as a divine calamity, or let’s call it the Black Fog King, just released its aura, and no dependents dare come close..."

"And it seems to disdain us, it didn’t attack us previously in the river... and now even less so."

With that thought, Zhong Shenxiu no longer hesitated and swallowed the crystal.

The digestion of the Spirit of the Faceless, as noted in previous journals, requires the collection of ninety-nine different dreams, to be ingested during sleep, perhaps with some supplementary materials.

But Zhong Shenxiu didn’t care about all that, he wanted to forcefully contain this power!

’After all, I’m pretty confident about winning the bet, and if I lose, it doesn’t matter, it’s all about transcendence, isn’t it? How can it be a tribulation if I don’t push myself to the brink?’

The bubbling crystal slid down his throat and into his stomach, seemingly melting rapidly.

In an instant, a strange sensation swept through Zhong Shenxiu’s body...
