Chapter 409: It Did Wonders (2/2)
“Is it really the one? Why don’t we go back instead?” Stingham was used to others scolding him idiot. He did not mind at all and suggested that instead.
“Shut up! Or we will throw you in alone first!” Rinloran lost the motivation to continue scolding Stingham, he just made a chilling warning.
“Don’t worry. The Eclipse Moon chief shaman clearly told us that the dragon has become too weak, so House Roland took great efforts to keep that Emperor Evil Eye, making it into their new guardian beast.” Ayrin tapped on Stingham’s shoulder to encourage him, “Also, didn’t chief shaman give you a bottle of good stuff with wonderful effect? I have also learned Red Alkalic Volcano, so there won’t be much danger.”
“Oh yeah! Let’s go!”
Stingham immediately became motivated.
A big patch of suspicious flower bush sneaked into the cave between the feet of the sculpture.
The interior of the cave was strangely dry. The ground was soft fiery-colored sand.
“That old shaman told me to drink it once we are inside. Then I will drink it now. Too bad there’s only one bottle.” Stingham immediately took out the small blue crystal bottle. He licked the content and felt that it was a little cold and sweet. Then he gulped it down in one go.
A wave of chilling sensation instantly filled his body.
Then, a layer of bluish glow covered him. Other than that, Stingham did not feel any discomfort.
“What a unique arcane power! It seems to be an anti-arcane layer formed by some sort of arcane energy.”
Ayrin opened his eyes wide in surprise. He stretched out his finger to touch the glow outside Stingham’s body. His finger immediately felt a shocking elasticity, and the fingertip also felt a little numb.
“Incredible! Haha, it’s good stuff as expected. I feel like gaining a layer of powerful anti-arcane skin!” Stingham could also feel it himself. He became greatly elated and a sense of security filled him.
Belo still walked in front of everyone.
The dragon nest seemed to be very deep. They had already advanced at least several hundred meters through the curves and turns, but they still seemed far away from the actual living quarter of the dragon. That was because they could feel gusts of wind blowing towards them from far away, as if there was an even bigger space inside.
Suddenly, Belo came to a halt again.
“Weird!”
He suddenly turned around and looked at Stingham’s feet. His impulsive expression showed confusion.
“What’s weird?” Stingham saw Belo’s expression and could not help but looked at his own feet.
At that moment, he lost his balance.
The sand beneath his feet became a huge sand wave sprouting upwards just like when the three sandworms manifested.
“What!? Why are there so many huge lobsters!?”
Stingham opened his eyes to the widest and shouted in disbelief as he was thrown upwards.
Countless red ‘lobsters’ the size of two to three men wildly surged out from the sandy ground, just like volcano eruption.
“Idiot! They are Poisonous Fiery Scorpions!” Rinloran had the urge to end that idiot’s life as he leapt back.
“What!? Not lobsters! Ah!”
Stingham immediately turned green in fear.
A few huge pliers instantly clamped Stingham, his arms and legs were tightly clamped.
“Let go of me! I’m here to slay the dragon!”
“Aren’t you scorpions? Why are you clamping me like lobsters even though you are not!?”
Stingham cried out.
“......”
Ayrin, Chris and the rest were surprised by the scene unfolding before them.
That was because all the poisonous fiery scorpions had ignored them and snatched Stingham away like snatching a bride.
Countless poisonous fiery scorpions held Stingham and quickly moved further into the cave like a crimson tide.
“Could it be......”
Ayrin, Chris and Rinloran suddenly realized what happened, their face immediately changed into a sly look.
“I’m here to slay the dragon!”
“Let go of me! I’m here to help you slay the dragon, why are you clamping me......”
“I’m here to slay......”
Stingham was pushed into a huge valley-like space by the swarming scorpions. There seemed to be two huge glowing gems and two wind holes.
Waves of wind blew out from the wind holes.
Suddenly, his shouting ceased.
That was because he saw the two huge glowing gems blinked and a wave of even fiercer wind blew onto him. Then he saw the enormous body clearly...... shiny scales.
“I’m here to slay...... Ah! No, it’s a misunderstanding!”
The instant all those scorpions scattered away, he cried out as if he just woke up from a nightmare.
