Chapter 599: Merging Two Worlds (1/2)
”Where do we go from here?” Lin Xiao looked at the vast expanse of flat ground that stretched in front of them. Although it seemed peaceful and without danger, they all knew that it was full of creatures beneath the ground or hiding themselves from sight.
These beasts would, in normal situations, not pose much of a threat to their group, as Xue Wei had an overpowering Sovereign Beast Aura, but their previous encounter had already made it clear that in the No Man's Land, this aura was useless.
For now, all of them had to depend on one another to survive, and even the slightest mistake might lead to their demise.
”From what we have seen so far there are not only hordes of scorpions in this area, there is also some sort of overlord. This overlord is likely to be much more dangerous than the other beasts since it is able to petrify them and make them lose their ability to fight back while being consumed.
”Even if we encounter another group of scorpions or some other beasts around this level of strength, then we can fight our way through, but if we encounter this overlord, then we might be facing some real danger.”
Xue Wei was also feeling a little uncertain as to how to progress.
”It is a beast, and the amount of scorpions it ate yesterday should be enough to make it feel full for a period of time. I would suggest that we find the most direct way away from this area and hope that it will not feel hungry before we have left.”
Hei Gou had not taken the initiative to participate in these conversations after losing his memories, but after the talk with Xue Wei the previous evening, he was willing to open up.
Among their entire group, Hei Gou was without a doubt the one who understood beasts the best. Even Xue Wei, who was at a higher rank would not have the same kind of understanding since he was raised as a human and had been in constant confusion about what it meant to be a beast.
”Since the collosal is likely to have fallen asleep now that it has eaten, it should be the most suitable time for leaving. However, even though this beast is sleeping, the many others are likely to be more active since they are the most used to the habits of this killer, so we still have to be careful and alert.”
Lin Xiao was not a beast himself, but after Hei Gou, he was the one with the most experience in how to hunt beasts, and thus also on how to avoid them.
