Every time he saw the swarms on the banks of the River Styx, Zod always felt that their numbers seemed to show no signs of diminishing. On top of this vast beach along the river, the swarm covered all the rocks that were outcropping. Except for the black oppressive shadow, there are hardly any other colors to be seen.

Zode cautiously swept the sky, and since the River Styx began to recede, the large number of dead souls living in the River Styx began to stir, and from time to time they flew ashore to attack the lone abyssal worms.

The dead souls were the strange creatures that Zod had seen flying around the River Styx like lumps of flesh before, and they were the waste of souls. Without thinking, there can be no evolution. Their only goal of survival is to drag living creatures into the River Styx.

Normally, dead souls don't leave the surface of the River Styx, but apparently the previous flooding of the River Styx had given birth to too many of these ugly little things. Now that the River Styx is receding, an overabundance of dead souls are beginning to scatter and attack all living things.

Here, of course, their only target is those abyssal worms.

Unlike pure demons, the Abyssal Worm isn't too afraid of the Styx waters. In fact, the rain is still very effective for them to purify their souls and form soul cores earlier, which is one of the important reasons why the insect swarms on both sides of the Styx River have grown indefinitely.

Despite this, if you soak in the River Styx for too long, the worm will still be purified into the original soul fragment, in other words, dead.

"Moo~!" A dull roar caught Zode's attention, and in the distance rushed a huge worm like a small mountain, this creature that looked like a unicorn fairy, with a thick worm carapace, long and powerful eight claws, and a terrifyingly large head horn raised high. There were many worms trampled to death by it along the way, but it had no intention of stopping to eat, and ran wildly all the way, and the target was Zuode!

Zuo De could feel the other party's battle intent, this was a rare worm with a level of up to eight levels. The intelligence of this level of worm has obviously improved, and it already has a trace of territorial awareness, and it is almost its instinct to kill the strong people who invade.

There is no way out, Zuo De is not afraid of fighting, challenging the stronger, and getting more evolutionary resources is his hope. He raised his chela aloft and began to charge as well, waiting long enough distance for a big jump before entering the gliding charge.

The huge head horn grazed Zode's abdomen and hit a huge rock. The unicorn giant insect was dizzy from the shock, and it couldn't recover for a long time.

With a good chance, Zuode, who jumped to the head of the giant insect, swung his double blades and began to slash. But the tremendous force shook Zuode's arms numb. The head of this giant insect must have been very specialized, and it is as hard as a stone wall. Although Zuode's chela blade could cut through a huge opening, he still couldn't see the flesh inside, and the thickness of the head armor was amazing.

The giant worm had recovered by this time, and it stood up and slammed into the rock behind it. Zuode had no choice but to give up the head attack and jumped down.

The one-horned giant worm stared at Zuo De, suddenly hugged into a ball, and rolled towards Zuo De. With a "boom", a large piece of mountain rock was smashed, and Zuode flapped his membrane wings and fell from the sky.

This guy was unexpectedly difficult, and the thickness of the insect armor was amazing, and Zode tried to charge a few times, and the only thing he got was two worm feet. The unicorn giant worm didn't care, it was still rolling around all over the place, and the momentum was amazing, and I don't know how many ordinary worms were crushed along the way.

In the end, the panting Zuode reluctantly chose to give up. This one-horned giant insect is huge, but it is very cautious, relying on strong defenses, so that Zuo De has no way to start.

Zode knows his strengths, which are speed and attack power. Ordinary rare worms can't withstand his fast attack, as long as there is a vulnerable place, it will be found by Zuode, and then quickly killed. But if you encounter this type of thick armor with full defense, there is no chance to take advantage of it.

"Yo~!Boss, you seem to have failed?" Cobb shouted out of nowhere, his expression exaggerated.

"Uh, I mean, it's a pity......" Seeing Zuo De glaring at him and walking towards him step by step, Cobb hurriedly shouted, "Boss, a failure is nothing, after all, worms are only the lowest level in the abyss world, we are masters of the cross-dimensional plane, wait for the future...... Ah, don't kill me!" Zod's clawblade flashed with rage, causing Cobb to shrink his head and jump far away.

There was a crisp "click", Zuo De's claw blade suddenly broke in two, and a slender figure buzzed and trembled and flew out of his body for a long time.

"What the hell is this, boss," Cobb cried out in horror as he realized that his life had been saved.

"It's just a bug ......", although I have seen all kinds of strange abyssal worms, but this worm suspended in the air in front of me is indeed the most special.

It's more like a flying blade than a worm. Except for the eyes on both sides, the guy in front of him couldn't see any biological features, and his entire body was in the form of a double-edged sword. A pair of thin cicada wings buzzed and flapped, and the monster was suspended in mid-air.

This bladed worm was clearly following the same route as Zode, with extreme speed and terrifying explosiveness, which was the deadliest means of attack. It was the first time that Zuode had faced his usual methods.

"Interesting, my chela blade has invested a lot of soul power, and the degree of evolution is already very high, even if the strength is not as strong as real steel, it is not much different. But he was cut off by this guy's blow, is this guy's talent ...... Demonic weapons?"

The demonic weapon is a first-order magic, and the effect is to increase the sharpness of the weapon, and the appearance of such a sharp blade in the worm stage must be provided by the talent of the worm.

"Good thing! Kill it, and you may be able to get the ability to demonize weapons from its soul core. ”

Zode put on a defensive posture and waited for the opponent to attack. Sure enough, the Bladed Worm observed Zuo De, and then rushed over in an instant.

It was as if a silver line crossed the sky, taking away a small piece of Zuode's insect beetle, and Zuode's perception of up to 19 points gave him a sharper intuition, and he flashed away. However, the sharp blade still took away a piece of flesh.

It wasn't over yet, the Bladed Worm was nimble in the air, like a brisk hummingbird, turned gracefully, and rushed over again.

Zode dodged again and again, once, twice, three times, and Zuode moved slowly while staring at the bladed worm. Although his body was not fatally wounded, the blade was too sharp, and the strong wind also had a terrible cutting force, and Zuode was covered in blood, looking extremely embarrassed.

The missed attacks apparently made the bladed worm agitated, and it let out a strange "squeak" cry, as if it had some intention of retreating.

At this moment, Zuode's feet seemed to be mixed by something, and he suddenly lost his balance. Seeing such an opportunity, the Bladed Worm became excited, and it spread out at its maximum speed, turning into a trace of silver light, and flashed towards Zuode.

"It's now!" Zuo De shouted, and his body, which had originally looked unbalanced, jumped up like a spring, flashing the rapid assault of the bladed worm. And behind him, there was actually a raised rock. The bladed worm that came at high speed didn't notice it at all, and plunged headlong into the rock. Its bladed body was indeed unusually sharp, and it pierced most of the rocks in such a way, leaving only the back half of its winged abdomen.

Zuo De immediately picked it up, and with a single sword, he cut through the cicada wings of the bladed worm, making this guy lose all his mobility.

Originally, he was going to kill the bladed worm, but Zode suddenly changed his mind.

"Cobb, come out. I know you're nearby. Zode shouted.

"Yes, boss, I'll come here! Isn't that guy dead?" the goblin engineer suddenly crawled out of a crack in the rock not far away, and he glanced warily at the bladed worm that was still struggling.

"Hmph, of course not. I ask you, can you help me put this guy here?" Zode gestured to his severed right arm.

Cobb looked carefully at the bladed worm, which was half the size of Zode, thought for a moment, and replied,

"But it's okay, but it's alive, in case it turns against the water......"

"You don't have to worry about that, just do what I say. "Zode's idea is to transplant this deprived bladed worm to Zode's chela in its entirety.

As a former member of the human race, it was his habit to master weapons and use weapons, but he didn't have that condition before, and now that he has ready-made weapons, Zuode doesn't want to let go easily.

The body structure of this bladed worm is very strange, and it is not inferior to real steel at all, which is completely in line with Zuode's needs. And most importantly, it's a living weapon. Demons have many ways to enslave souls, not to mention an abyssal worm that has just given birth to the consciousness of the Lord. As long as he controls the soul core of the Bladed Worm, Zuode is equivalent to obtaining a powerful weapon that can evolve itself.

"But...... Boss, how are we going to get this guy back?" Cobb asked hesitantly, looking at the bladed worm that was constantly struggling through the crevices of the rocks.

Zuode stepped forward and slammed the back of the blade into the eye of the bladed worm. Suddenly, the bladed worm let out a twitch and stopped moving.

"Are there any questions now?"

"Uh, no, my boss. Let's go back. ”
