Chapter 227 - Death Caused by Wealth (1/2)

Visibility within the cave had been limited by the dark surroundings, those who did not have darkglow could also channel their internal strength into their eyes to view in the dark, however, it would only work within the radius of not more than thirty meters. Gunners who had infrared scanning were checking on everything to ensure that nothing valuable would be missed.

“Oh my, silver pearl!”

The shout had alerted everyone in the surroundings.

The silver pearl was about thirty centimetres in size, and it could possibly breed pearls that were the same in size as a grape.

Each one could easily net thirty million!

If they were still alive, how could it be possible for the E-tier apt.i.tude users to resist the temptation to keep and grow them?

Furthermore, there were at least a dozen of them! Most of them were goods that were brought back when the Drakocrocs came back from their hunts.

The apt.i.tude user immediately reached out toward the silver pearl with hands.

Boom!

A deafening gun shot was heard.

Valuable goods would attract anybody, wealth could be the cause of human death, and the same went to birds that died for their food; the moment of brutal ma.s.sacre had begun!

“Do you wanna die?!”

“You shall die today!”

“Scram, b.a.s.t.a.r.d!”

The crowd had sunk into a chaotic battle.

Loud noises echoed within the cave and were heard by many in the surroundings, some identified the origin of the noise and tried to hide from any trouble that might come forward, while some headed toward the noise as they thought that there might be something valuable that had caused the battle.

However, it was at that moment, those who were involved in the battle did not notice the abrupt wave that was rising from the seas as they were in the midst of the chaotic gunshots, a gigantic creature leaped up from the other end of the cave and rushed toward those who were in battle.

“Ah!”

Once again, the crowd screamed in immense fear.

“Beast king!”

The Drakocroc King flung away a giant beast general shark that was being dragged in by it and rampaged forward with its ma.s.sive body. Everyone in the surroundings was like small ants that would easily die from a single stomp from the Drakocroc King.

Any normal Drakocroc would recognize human beings as their food source, as for the beast king, it would not even pay heed to the existence of human beings. However, the beast king had a great sense of control over its own territory, and it was a disrespectful provocation for the human beings to cause such chaos in the surroundings.

The slaughter had begun!

Without even any time to react, some of the apt.i.tude users had already been flattened into minced meat.

“Run, run quickly!”

“Take this!”

An ability user defended with one last attack before his demise.

“Earthfall!”

Boom!

The ground immediately turned into spiralling whirls of sand that was pulling the body of the Drakocroc King down, trying to swallow it whole.

However, with limited conscious energy from the ability user, the pit formed was a mere fifty meters in depth. The Drakocroc King began to struggle and tried to free itself from being swallowed.

“Boulder Dragon Style!”

Before it could escape successfully, the ability user casted out another ability that formed into a gigantic dragon with eastern features, and it was comparable with Qin Feng’s fire dragon, the boulder dragon rushed toward the Drakocroc King with its ma.s.sive body that was formed from solid boulders.

The Drakocroc King was once again forced backward.

However, this attack had ultimately enraged the Drakocroc King.

The beast king widened its jaw and crunched down on the approaching boulder dragon.

Crus.h.!.+

The boulder dragon was instantly crushed into pebbles and its body shattered all over the area.

Poof!
