Chapter 130: Underground Killing Machine (I)

In the shadows came the peculiar gasps of the monsters again, and they always appeared so silently, as if they were hunters born in this darkness.

Unfortunately, they encountered Ulysses, the black-clad demon king at the highest point of all dark power.

With the soft sound of "Boom!Boom!", these monsters with enough strength to knock the entire city of Taji were sliced to pieces by the sharp wind pressure brought up by Ulysses' hand knife before they could use their high-speed tongue attacks.

On average, each monster survives no more than five seconds from the time it appears until it turns into liquid, again because Ulysses needs to confirm their location. If they didn't have the ability to appear silently in the shadows, they wouldn't have survived for even a second.

They were helpless for the elite squads of the Beast Corps, and in the eyes of Ulysses, they were just moths that flew to the flames in search of death.

However, the problem that had plagued Ulysses from the very first one was still not solved, and instead became more confusing as the number of attacks by such monsters increased.

Where did this monster, which was casually identified as a "tongue monster" by Ulysses, come from?

At first, Ulysses judged from the traces left at the scene that he might have walked into their lair, and the holes were where they roosted.

Soon, however, this conclusion was overturned, for Ulysses discovered that wherever he went down the sewers, the tongue monster would burst out of the dark corners.

In a few cases, he was even close to the sewer entrance on the ground, but the monsters still came out. Obviously, no monster would build a nest in such a mess, and according to what Ulysses already knew, the number of these monsters was definitely not as large as it is now, otherwise it would have caused a big riot.

Along the way, there were more than eighty of these tongue monsters that died in his hands, the most of which were dark red tongue monsters, accounting for about eighty percent of the proportion, followed by blue tongue monsters, which had a chance of about sixteen or seventeen percent, and the yellow tongue monster that burst out of the storm shield in its stomach only appeared once.

It seems that all of these monsters have a hobby of collecting items, but the hierarchy is very strict. There is almost nothing in the body of the lowest-level dark red tongue monster, and the blue-skinned tongue monster occasionally has some gem fragments, incomplete coats of arms, bottles of unknown purpose, etc., and the only yellow tongue monster directly gave Ulysses a shield.

After slicing another set of blue tongue monsters, Ulysses crouched thoughtfully in front of the monster's vegetative corpse.

The more you come into contact with these monsters, the more you can discover the mystery of this monster, and Ulysses can already be sure that this is definitely not the aborigines of the sewers, whether it is their habits or abilities, they are completely different from sewer monsters in the general sense.

The hierarchical upper and lower systems, the systematic ability to collect items, and the strong counterattack against invaders are already the prototype of a small society, and they belong to the ability of intelligent beings.

"Huh?" Ulysses inadvertently discovers a phenomenon that he hadn't noticed all along.

The green liquid left behind by the death of these monsters was absorbed by the underground tunnel ground too quickly, and it disappeared without a trace almost shortly after they died.

Ulysses doesn't think this is normal.

That speed was unusual, it could be said that in just a few moments, the entire monster's corpse completely melted into the ground like ice and snow exposed to the intense sun.

However, the green liquid that monsters turn into when they die shouldn't disappear so quickly. Ulysses has confirmed that it is a liquid full of life, containing a powerful force of nature and life, and you can feel the power of life just by dropping it on your hands.

If this liquid melts into the earth, it will immediately have a plant-promoting effect, and it is not normal for it to disappear so quickly and without leaving any trace.

This feeling, as if something was absorbing this liquid, the huge life force was sucked away in an instant.

In that case, is it ...... Ulysses held out his hand in a slightly surprised way, and blasted the ground beneath the monster's corpse.

"Gah!" the slippery ground from the damp environment shattered under Ulysses' attack.

Then, albeit for a very brief moment, perhaps only a tenth of a second, Ulysses saw what had absorbed the liquid that the monster had turned into after its death.

It was a small green root, like the end of a plant, and its breath was so faint that even Ulysses only noticed it after seeing it.

However, its speed was unusually fast, and it retracted into the earth almost the moment it was discovered by Ulysses, and then disappeared without a trace, and the already extremely faint aura could no longer be felt.

"Won't you...... Could it be that Ulysses did not mean to track ...... here.

In fact, it is completely impossible to catch up, this plant has a sensitivity and special ability that is completely inconsistent with that faint breath, and the ability to move freely underground is a talent that Ulysses does not have.

Stealth, camouflage, and quickly absorbed, Ulysses was impressed by this particular plant from the first time it appeared.

And its appearance also gave Ulysses an unusually bad guess about what happened in this underground waterway.

Although it doesn't have any attack power, the level of power embodied by this plant is far more powerful than those disgusting tongue monsters. It was the power that Ulysses could calmly retreat in front of his eyes and automatically dispel his breath.

It was the first time Ulysses had encountered a plant capable of doing such a thing, and it was clear that the small green root was only a small part of the plant.

How big would this plant be? Ulysses recalls the attacks he encountered along the way and the corpses of the monsters that disappeared, and that bad premonition grows worse.

No, the entire underground waterways of Taji City have fallen, and Ulysses can't be optimistic, even though he knows that the result is terrible.

In that case, did those monsters grow out of this plant?

"Boom!boom!" Ulysses shot several small green arrows from a dark corner as he pondered the question.

It's very fast, and it's not at all a level compared to those tongue monsters just now, and it's already an attack that can threaten empty-handed Ulysses.

The Abyss Judgment appeared silently in Ulysses' hands, blocking the arrows.

Then a petite black figure jumped high from the dark corner, and after a beautiful somersault in the air, a powerful momentum erupted all over the body, and then stepped down violently like a meteorite.

"Boom!" This domineering kick like a meteorite crashing directly stomped on the underground waterway where Ulysses was located, and even made the entire Taji City feel the huge tremor.

"What's the matter, is there an earthquake?"

"It's not that seaside cities don't have earthquakes. ”

"My cup, damn earthquake!"

Obviously, no one thought that this huge shock was man-made, which also represented the power of the petite figure's kick.

"Boom!", Ulysses began to fall violently, and the other party's blow actually directly shattered the ground, destroying the entire underground waterway, and piercing the passage to a deeper underground layer.

Countless pieces of masonry and sewage fell with Ulysses, but before they could get close to him, they were bounced out of the ring guarding him.

"Click!" the figure in the darkness blasted Ulysses down and didn't let him go, and as they fell, their petite feet stepped into the air hard, and a strange pale green circle of light appeared behind her, like a water pattern in the emerald green water of the lake.

This unreasonable aerial ejection ability enriched the Black Shadow's huge acceleration and explosive power, and after just two aerial walks, she rushed in front of Ulysses, and then did not hesitate to hit him down.

The explosive power of the beautiful feet stacked on top of each other and spun violently was ten times stronger than those tongue monsters just now, it was as fast and fierce as a poisonous dragon.

"Ding!" Although he was not on the ground, Ulysses still unleashed the mystery of the Sword of Guardian, automatically defending against the opponent's kicks in the air.

"Ding, ding, ding!" A series of crisp voices sounded, and in the air where it was impossible to borrow strength, relying on the pair of beautiful feet, the black shadow forced from Ulysses's lower plate to the upper plate, completing an all-round double flying leg attack.

The short, powerful attack made it hard for Ulysses to imagine that it came from such a pair of very beautiful-looking feet.

"Hey!" After completing a round of ultra-close kicks, the black shadow suddenly burst into a layer of beautiful emerald green light all over his body, and a spiral storm came towards Ulysses at zero distance in the air.

The beautiful green light formed a huge ball in the air, and Ulysses's body was cut thousands of times in an instant, if it wasn't for his real strength in time to unleash the golden rune ring defense, this spiral storm would have pierced through the protective posture he had just formed.

Fast and deadly, the rhythm connected to perfection, like the shining spiral storm, this is the attack that Ulysses encountered. Even now, this round of attacks was almost flawless, and he was caught off guard.

Eventually, Ulysses was shaken from the air into a dark abyss by the green spiral storm, and the black shadow was shaken to the other side by the force of the countershock, but before she could hit the ground, she stepped on the unique emerald green circle of light in the air, blending perfectly with the darkness.
