Chapter 208: Chapter 208: Desert Strange Insects
Yang Xiao and his group of eight stood in the middle of the Transmission Array, as over a dozen gigantic cobras charged towards them, closing the distance to a mere 5 or 6 meters in the blink of an eye.
Huang Wen and the others screamed at the top of their lungs, having never witnessed such a terrifying scene before.
Long Yongjun was bold, swinging his Dog Blood Blade as he struck out. His Dog Blood Blade Technique had already reached Level 8. Facing the horde of snakes, he slashed fiercely, and immediately a multitude of blade shadows arose, stirring up a storm of sand. The dreadful Sword Energy, mixed with the wind and sand, slashed towards the horde of snakes.
The dozens of gigantic cobras only trembled slightly, each producing a black Shield in front of themselves, which with a "bang" sound, dissolved Long Yongjun’s Sword Energy.
The rest came to their senses and hurried to act. Huang Wen flew up into the air, launching Fiery Feather Arrows, Zhao Gang with his bear paws, Chen Fei with her Ice Cones, Chen Lu with her Fireballs, Dai Yun with his Wolf Claw Critical Strikes, and Feifei with her Thousand Threads Piercing Cloud, all of them attacked the snakes en masse.
After a series of crackling sounds, the snakes remained unharmed. Under the cover of their black Shields, they charged at the group once again.
Everyone was horrified. How high had these snakes’ Genetic Evolution Level become?
So many people were unable to shatter their black Shields.
At this critical moment, Yang Xiao roared angrily and executed Sweeping Void.
A whip-like tail whistled through the air, instantly sweeping across the horde of snakes. A loud boom ensued, as all the snakes were cut into two or even three sections; some snake bodies were even flung dozens of meters away.
Then, a bright light appeared before everyone’s eyes. Dozens of golden flashes emerged, as several snakes dropped numerous treasures.
Just moments ago, they had been gripped by fear, but now they erupted into a frenzy of excitement. With a scream, they dashed forward to collect the treasures.
After tallying their loot, they had three pieces of Armor, ten Weapons, 2 Skill Scrolls, and 20 golden spherical Genetic Balls.
"Yang Xiao, these Genetic Fragments dropped by the monsters are spherical and golden? I’ve never seen them before."
Yang Xiao pondered for a bit and then said:
"These monsters should be at the Enhanced Gene Stage. One Genetic Ball should be equivalent to ten complete Genetic Disks, which is the same as 100 ordinary Genetic Fragments."
Long Yongjun was stunned and said:
"By that calculation, are these 20 Genetic Balls worth 2,000 Genetic Fragments?"
"Mhm, that should be correct, maybe even more."
Long Yongjun gaped in amazement and exclaimed:
"Goodness gracious, that’s 2,000 Crystal Coins right there! If you kill ten more hordes of monsters like these, that’ll be 20,000 Crystal Coins. What a bargain."
On the side, Zhao Gang pointed out:
"Long Yongjun, your math is all wrong. There are thirteen pieces of Weapons and Armor here, plus 2 Skill Scrolls. Even though we haven’t appraised them yet, I believe they might be worth even more. Yang Xiao’s single whip has earned at least 4,000 Crystal Coins."
Yang Xiao forced a wry smile,
"So easy to earn? You guys give it a try. Didn’t you see how high the Monster Level was? Even I have difficulty dealing with them. I can only use this Sweeping Void Soul Skill once every half hour. If another horde of such monsters comes, we’ll just have to call it quits."
The others nodded in agreement.
"No wonder what Old Gu Bo said made sense, this resource point requires our city’s overall Genetic Evolution Level to reach 15 before it can be opened. Indeed, even if we access it prematurely, we are unable to hunt these Monsters inside, such a waste."
Yang Xiao glanced over the two Skill Scrolls, one labeled "Golden Snake Whip Skill" and the other labeled "Snake Fist". Although he hadn’t appraised them to know their exact effects, with his current situation, Yang Xiao naturally did not need to learn these ordinary Skills. The Snow Wolf Soul Skill he learned last time seemed to have no effect as he scarcely utilized it.
These Skills would be more suitable for those who did not possess a Soul Skill.
Yang Xiao’s Golden Bee Sword Skill had reached Level 8, and he intended to continue training this ordinary Skill to the very last Level. His Feathered Arrow was also at Level 8; it was just one step away from reaching the maximum Level.
Yang Xiao scanned the surroundings of the Transmission Array and realized that the desert was covered in yellow sand everywhere, with no snow, and the temperature was quite high.
"Yang Xiao, do you think this desert is still on Earth? Isn’t the whole planet covered by snow and ice? Why is there no snow here?"
Huang Wen asked.
Chen Fei said:
"Wenwen sister, are you confused? There’s obviously no snow in the desert during winter because there is no water in the air above the desert. Naturally, there can’t be any snow formed. That’s basic physical common sense, right?"
Huang Wen chuckled, "It sounds like you’re making a lot of sense, but doesn’t the temperature also seem to be a lot higher?"
"It’s normal for the temperature to be a bit higher, especially since there’s no snow under our feet!"
"Let’s not argue about this anymore. We’re here to slay monsters and pick up resources. Everyone be careful, who knows what kind of monsters could appear in this desert."
Yang Xiao said as he led the way forward, glancing at the pile of dead snakes on the ground, "Remember to take this snake meat back and barbecue it when we return. It’s been a long time since we’ve eaten snake meat."
Upon hearing this, everyone laughed. What a bunch of foodies.
Just as the group had walked forward about a dozen meters, they suddenly felt a tremor under their feet.
"Be careful!"
A loud "boom" was heard, and yellow sand blasted into the air as a huge black shadow soared into the sky.
Yang Xiao and the others quickly retreated.
With a monstrous howl, an unnamed monster, as big as a water tank and hundreds of meters long, with a massive terrifying mouth, stood erect in mid-air.
"Holy crap! What kind of monster is that?"
"I don’t know, I’ve never seen it before."
"Who cares, let’s all go at it."
Everyone cast various Soul Skills and furiously attacked the monster.
The monster, unflinching, opened its massive mouth and sprayed out a white mist at the people. As soon as their attacks met the white mist, they were instantly frozen.
"Such powerful Extreme Cold Energy, this monster belongs to the Ice Element, and that white mist is its cold energy. Everyone be careful not to get sprayed."
Chen Fei, being an Ice Mage, knew a lot about the Ice Element and quickly shouted out.
Just as everyone was about to attack again, the monstrous bug suddenly stretched out its head towards them, spraying out a blast of Extreme Cold Energy.
"Run!"
The group hurried to run backwards to avoid being sprayed by the monster’s cold breath.
As they ran, the monster also immediately moved its body to pursue, continuously breathing out its cold energy.
"Oh my god, we really shouldn’t have come to this place. We can’t even beat one monster, what are we fighting for!"
Zhao Gang shouted while running.
After running a few dozen meters, they felt another tremor from below, and with a great roar, another of the same kind of monstrous bug burst out from the sandy ground.
Yang Xiao felt like he wanted to die right there and then.
They couldn’t handle one ice bug, and now another one appears. How are they supposed to live?
"Boss, what should we do?"
"I’m out of options too. My Sweeping Void Skill can only be used once every half an hour. Keep running. Fortunately, these bugs don’t move very fast."
