Zero reached out and grabbed a thick vine, then pulled forward with force, allowing his body to swing forward naturally. He grabbed another one and moved swiftly in the canyon like Tarzan of the apes.

Atesha's body was much more agile than him in this regard, and despite still carrying Moni on her back, the black girl's moving body moved rapidly in a pendulum motion, and she was nearly a hundred meters away from Zero.

The two of them had already advanced most of the "distance" in the canyon in this way, but as time passed, Zero clearly felt that there was already a cool breeze passing through the canyon. The wind blew the Grim Reaper flowers on the valley floor slightly, and it was thrilling to watch. Zero knew that the time for the wind was getting closer and closer, and his heart was slightly anxious.

The deeper you go into the canyon, the fewer vines there are. When they first entered the valley, these thick vines were almost entwined with each other, and there was no gap at all. However, in the middle of the process, the gap between the plants widens, and in some places there is even a gap of nearly three meters. In this way, it was naturally impossible to pass easily, so the two had to grab some upside-down vines and fly to the other side. As long as one of these links goes wrong, it will fall to the bottom and be accompanied by the Death Flower, which really makes people's hearts rise to their throats.

Fortunately, this area was only about ten kilometers, and after the two of them passed, the vines at the top of the canyon began to dense again, and the speed of the two of them immediately increased greatly.

Zero thought that the density of the vines should be related to the intensity of the radiation in the canyon. In the middle of the canyon, Zero clearly felt the increased radiation in the canyon. Even with his physique, he felt numb all over his body, which was a sign that the radiation level had reached a certain dangerous value. The radiation protection kit on Moni's body lit up with a blinding red light, and it was not until after passing through that area that the kit's light dropped to a relatively low yellow light.

silently estimated the time, according to the speed of the two of them, there should be half an hour to get out of the valley. Zero Da felt a sense of relief, and moving forward in a pendulum movement like this is actually very physically demanding. If it was usual, it would be fine, but now that the injury is recovering, it is not suitable for such a strenuous exercise. Now he could feel all kinds of bad signals coming from all over his body, and although he forced his own will to suppress these signals, Zero knew that he couldn't hold out for long.

Beads of sweat had already wet his forehead, and the broken hair that had been fluttering was now wet on his face. The sterilized bandage on Zero's back was also wet with sweat, and there was a slight flush that had melted away, it was too strenuous exercise that had caused his wound to begin to crack again.

But now we can't stop, we can only continue to persevere. Zero gritted his teeth and continued to wave his almost numb hands, speeding up his movements.

However, even Atesha thought that the three of them were about to get out of the valley smoothly, but there was a sudden violent earthquake in the direction of the entrance. The tremor was quickly transmitted through the ground to the area where the two men were, and the mountain walls on both sides of the canyon trembled slightly, causing the vines connecting the two sides of the mountain wall to ripple endlessly. Not to mention moving forward, even fixing their bodies has become very difficult.

What's going on?

Zero clearly sensed that the danger signal was coming from behind, but from his direction, he couldn't directly see what was happening at the entrance of the canyon due to the natural sloping trend of the canyon. Judging from Atesha's not too haode face, I'm afraid things are not simple.

Immediately after, a strange cry was heard in the distance.

Listening to the whistle of a steamer, or the chirping of some animal, makes Zero feel a sense of déjà vu. He quickly analyzed and compared this sound source with countless data from the memory center in his brain, and in less than 1 second, he came up with the sound of a whale. But the three of them are now on land, not in the sea, how can there be the sound of whales?

Hearing the same voice, Atesha screamed, "It's not good, it's the Devourer of Filth!"

Zero was stunned.

In the book "Monster Notes" that Ben gave him, there was no record of seeing this kind of monster, and he was impressed. This is so because the monster known as the Devourer of Filth is one of the few mutant beasts on land that has a huge size.

The Devourer of Filth is like a blue whale that lives on land, and its mature Devourer is the size of an aircraft carrier, and even when it is a juvenile, it is the size of a hill. The Devourer resembles a whale in appearance, but its eyes are degenerate. Like whales, devourers can observe external shijie through sound wave localization. This is a monster with elemental domain abilities like Fenri wolves, but unlike Fenri wolves' ice and snow abilities, Devourer's abilities are earth control.

It lives underground and feeds on nuclear waste and anything with a radiation source. In turbulent times, its food was almost ubiquitous for the Devourer of Filth. The Devourer is able to roam the ground and from the ground to the ground, thanks to its powerful land-control capabilities. Its surface is constantly flowing with sludge, which can release the elemental wavelengths of the soil system, which can cause changes at the molecular level on the hard ground. The Devourer can soften into silt the moment it is unearthed, and the earth becomes an ocean for the Devourer to swim in.

But the larger the monster, the worse its ability to reproduce. The scales of the gods are always in relative balance, otherwise if such monsters were allowed to exist in large numbers, they would have become the masters of the earth.

Zero didn't expect that there would be a Devourer of Filth here in Death Canyon, and this troll was only here for the ubiquitous Death Valley. For most living things, it is a deadly Death Flower, and it is a delicious food in the eyes of the Devourer. Because of this, these whale-shaped monsters have been dubbed Devourers of Filth, in a sense, they are actually beneficial creatures, after all, they play the role of scavengers of the earth.

It's just that when the filthy eater, he doesn't make a special distinction between the types of food. For them, although the zero three people are not staple food, if they accidentally swallow them together, the devourer will not deliberately spit them out again.

And so after that whale-like call, the earth trembled, and a loud rumbling like a bulldozer came from the entrance to the canyon. But in the blink of an eye, Zero could already see a mountain-like voice pushing towards them at the end of their sight.

It is a juvenile devourer, but its size almost fills the cross-section of the canyon. The Devourer of Filth was with its mouth wide open, its body half-submerged in the ground, plowing like a bulldozer. The ubiquitous Flower of Death, along with a large cloud of sediment, was dug into the Devourer's mouth and into his stomach. Seeing this, it didn't mind eating the three of them together.

Atesha yelled, "Hurry up, once the Devourer eats, it won't stop until the entire canyon is cleared of the Reaper Flower!"
