Chapter 278: The Old Race, the Punishment of the Egg Stealer

The Driller Worm itself has an extremely high tolerance to lightning, and most of the lightning is channeled into the earth through the Driller's body, so it can't cause too much damage to the Driller's skin.

At this moment, Kakashi finally understood.

That is, the theory of chakra's mutual restraint does not apply to the monster in front of you, because the monster in front of you is not a thing of this world!

From the information that Kakashi had just learned in his brain, the Driller Worms were widely distributed anywhere in the world, even in the basalt beneath the ocean.

But the Drillers are actually otherworldly creatures that have been imprisoned in this world for billions of years, and their abilities bear no resemblance to any other creature in this world.

Kakashi is not without a concept of the existence of another world, because a few years ago, a man named Huangquan summoned the otherworldly monster Spirit, which swept through many countries.

In the end, the shrine maiden of the Oni Country used a powerful sealing technique to seal the body and soul of the dragon separately and quell the incident.

This incident made everyone realize that the other world is real.

The murals Kakashi found during his expedition to the City of the Ancients even earlier also depict Cthulhu as an evil god descending from another world, including the Ancients and Mi Go.

In other words, monsters from other worlds have existed in this world since the years that human civilization could not record.

The Driller is one of them, too!

And the evidence is not only there, in the information that Kakashi has just learned in his brain, there is also the supreme leader of the people of Ketonia.

The most powerful, important, and evil individual of the Drill Worm race is named Schod Meier, one of the Old Dominators!

Shude Meier, also known as the Earth Splitter and Underground Excavator, is over a thousand meters long and has the strongest digging ability in the Earth Drilling Demon Worm clan.

Due to his perennial activity in the hot layer of the earth, the surface of his body is covered with heat, and any object that comes close to Him will be melted by this heat.

And most importantly, Hud Meier is still one of the Old Dominators, he is the same level as Cthulhu!

Coupled with the information he had obtained so far, Kakashi already knew the names of the two old rulers.

One is Cthulhu and the other is Hud Meier.

And Cthulhu's family is called the Star Family, and the family of Shude Meier, or the subordinates of the same family, is the Earth Drill Demon Worm in front of him.

There was no doubt that the Driller in front of him was not outstanding among the Ktonian race, but even so, Kakashi found it very tricky.

Now the Driller uses telepathic abilities to control Naruto, Sakura, Sasuke, and Talina from moving, leaving Kakashi in a dilemma.

With Kakashi's current speed, he can quickly take up to two people to quickly escape from the attack range of the Driller Worm.

But this brings us to the question of who to save.

If Talina is chosen, it means sacrificing at least two people.

If you don't choose Talina, you will only have to sacrifice one person in the class, but the mission will not be completed.

Is it to save one more person? Or is it a task?

Although Kakashi had made up his mind before that he would not be a trash who would abandon his partner for the sake of the mission, the goal of this mission was to protect one person, and that was also a living human life.

It's also human life, and Kakashi can't be measured on the scales.

Only two people can be saved, and the other two will be sucked dry.

Damn it!

...

And that's when things changed again.

The tentacles that were swinging around at the front of the Driller Worm suddenly stopped.

This kind of stagnation is like Kakashi being under mind control just now, but at this time, the state of the Driller Worm is more like actively stopping and sensing something.

Suddenly, the Driller raised all of its tentacles into the sky, each of which stretched straight.

The Driller does not have an obvious head structure, and if the Driller's tentacles are regarded as its sensory organs, equivalent to human eyes, then the Driller is looking up at the sky.

In the next second, one of the tentacles of the Driller Worm immediately stretched out, grabbing the nearest Talina, and then the long bag-like body that appeared on the ground quickly retracted below the surface.

At the same time, a voice was felt in Kakashi's heart.

The voice was peculiar, gloomy and indistinct, and it was impossible to hear the man or woman, but from the vaguely recognizable language, Kakashi could hear the meaning of the words.

Ovum... Change...

Kakashi immediately understood that this was the strange telepathic ability of the Driller, and it was using this ability to talk to itself.

And the meaning of the words is very simple, it is to let Kakashi exchange the eggs of the Earth Demon Worm for Talina.

In Kakashi's stunned gaze, the last of the Driller's body disappeared from the surface.

Immediately after, a trickling rain hit the ground and Kakashi's face.

Kakashi looked up at the sky, it was a very clear night and it didn't stand up to any rain.

But why?

As the rain fell, the bodies of Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke were able to move.

But even if the three people's bodies have been lifted, the huge shock generated by the sight of the Drill Demon Worm just now still can't be dispelled, and the frightened emotions control the three of them not knowing what to say for a while.

The villagers in the distance also happened to come over at this time, and everyone was too frightened to speak when they looked at the terrifying cracks and big holes in the ground.

Of all the people, only Kakashi stood thoughtfully in the rain.

...

This light rain didn't last long, and it stopped in a few minutes.

"Kakashi-sensei, let's go to Uncle Talina!"

Seeing Talina being taken away by the Driller Worm, Naruto shouted to save someone.

However, Kakashi is not in a hurry, although the Driller Worm obviously has no "good intentions" towards humans, they are also intelligent, and they will not harm Talina until they get what they want.

As for what the Ground Drilling Demon Worm wants, it is naturally an "egg".

Kakashi walked over to the bamboo basket and lifted the white cloth on the basket, revealing the green ore that Nao Asano had collected from the cave.

Kakashi took the spherical ore, which was made up of prismatic clusters, to the light of the fire and observed it, finally discovering some clues.

The black particles in these ores appear to be mineral impurities, but after a short period of rest, the particles will settle in the direction of gravity for a short distance.

In other words, the surface of this green ore is actually a mineral-like shell, and the black particles inside are the eggs of the Driller

And the Driller Worm caused an earthquake to hit the village and suck Nao Asano dry to punish the humans who stole the eggs.
