422 Bloody’s Ambition (1/2)
The dark alley was not where the Cursed Swordfiend was, but it was the hiding place for a parasite called the Shadow Worm. The Shadow Worm was a unique parasite which would perform parasitizing on creatures' shadows instead of their bodies, which was unavoidable for the victims. Their reason for being there was because Bloody had mentioned to Lin Huang before that it was one of the parasitizing methods that it desired. The Shadow Worm not only had an unusual parasitizing method but was also a cross-ranking parasite.
Lin Huang pinned this location first when they arrived in the area. The Viridian Wolf stopped at the entrance of the alley, and Lin Huang could hear crunching. It was the sound of Shadow Worms that was crawling in the dark.
”Come out, Bloody!” Lin Huang waved and summoned Bloody.
”This is the Shadow Leech of the Shadow Worm that you wanted. Its is lair ahead,” Lin Huang said to Bloody.
Bloody nodded in excitement and dashed towards the alley in a crimson glow. Soon, the alley became crowded with chirping noises. There were some Shadow Worms that raced towards Lin Huang and Lin Xin, but they were killed by Lancelot easily. It was the first time for the both of them to see real Shadow Worms. It was a black worm the size of an adult thumb that resembled a spider. They crawled fast, but they could not fly, or else, Lin Huang would not have just stood by the alley entrance so nonchalantly.
”Congratulations, your epic-level Monster Card Bloody has obtained a new skill - Shadow Leech (Supreme).” As Xiao Hei's notification was heard, a red glow dashed towards Lin Huang like a lightning bolt.
”I've got the skill. Let's go.” Bloody spoke to Lin Huang in his mind.
”Let's go!” Lin Huang patted the Viridian Wolf's back and they left. As they moved, the Shadow Worms chased them from the alley like a flood of critters.
”We have offended them. Luckily, they can't fly.” Lin Huang turned around to look while asking the Viridian Wolf to run as fast as it could. He did not bother about the monsters around that were affected by the Shadow Worms. The Shadow Worms were not quick enough, so the Viridian Wolf managed to get away from them in an instant as it was much larger. Each stride of the Viridian Wolf was equivalent to hundreds of steps of the Shadow Worms. It was impossible for them to catch up. Therefore, the monsters around were attacked out of nowhere. Many of the monsters were puzzled by the chaos.
Lin Huang looked at Bloody's details as he had the time, and he wanted to know what was the effect of the skill that Bloody had obtained.
