Chapter 1146: Hatching
Gan Lan wasn’t stupid. Or rather, people who spent two years wouldn’t be stupid. Since Ye Zhongming asked her, she naturally thought about the weird situation they faced previously.
He nodded.
The greyish-white floor outside was like solar panels. The Frost Monster corpses were the sunlight that was absorbed by the ground. Where did they go?
If he hadn’t seen the patterns in the tunnel, he would have just thought the ground absorbed them. Bright Water World was different from Earth, and it wouldn’t be surprising if that happened.
But when he saw this, he wouldn’t think that way. The egg was where the energy went to.
A few parts of the egg were pierced through, and a few sharp drills were pierced out before retracting. After a few times, big cracks appeared. The lifeform inside was about to come out.
“Kill it!” Gan Lan couldn’t take it and wanted Ye Zhongming to attack.
Ye Zhongming shook his head, “I want to see what hatches.”Gan Lan rolled her eyes and didn’t say anything.
Ye Zhongming wasn’t being arrogant; he wanted to see what surprise this place could give him. Moreover, he had some guesses about the lifeform in the egg.
Firstly, this was a Bright Water World dungeon. He didn’t know if this was the toughest one but it should be up there. Even then, with many caves and each having many Frost Monsters, he didn’t think there would be an extremely strong boss he couldn’t handle.
Secondly, let’s talk about the Frost Monsters. They were as strong as five-star evolved. So, the monster about to hatch should be around level six. Even if this dungeon was difficult, it was level seven then. Such a monster would have been slightly problematic for Ye Zhongming, but it wasn’t a threat.
With such an analysis, he wasn’t afraid. But Gan Lan was.
Crack, crack.
The cracking sounds got louder and louder, and some big pieces fell. The monster\'s four limbs—those drill-shaped things—could be seen.
Although Ye Zhongming didn’t fear it, he waited on the spot and didn’t get close.
Gan Lan took a few steps back. The two ice birds got slightly closer and looked curiously.
After a few dozen seconds, the entire shell exploded loudly and split into pieces. A half-human, half-beast monster appeared.
Ye Zhongming took a look before shifting his gaze to the ground. Those unknown matter stopped flowing toward it.
“Ga!”
A weird sound attracted Ye Zhongming’s attention.
Ye Zhongming took one look and had a weird expression.
This beast’s stomach actually faced the sky.
The egg’s head faced the top, and the monster fell head first after hatching.
But when the monster got up, Ye Zhongming couldn’t laugh anymore.
This fellow looked vicious.
It had eight muscular legs that were spread evenly around it. These eight legs had two segments combined to form a circular pillar stuck to the ground.
A 1.5-meter body with developed muscles was on the circular pillar. On the chest, a wolf-like mouth was located, and there were many fangs.
Four arms were on the two sides of the body. However, these arms only had one segment, and energy currents fired from the elbows.
The head was huge, like a devil. In China, there were things in legend that looked similar to this fellow, but Ye Zhongming couldn’t recall what they were called.
It seemed like the things that broke through the shell were its legs.
The monster was white, but this white wasn’t clean. There were grey things inside. It had no hair, but like humans, it had a face with features. There were circular dots on both sides of the face with black fur that made one vomit.
This monster looked at Ye Zhongming and shouted excitedly. It charged with its eight legs.
The two ice birds were furious. They didn’t care how strong this monster was and dove down.
“Return!”
Ye Zhongming’s expression changed. He shouted and held his blade.
The moment the ice birds dove down, he captured the cunning expression in the eyes of the monster.
It did it on purpose!
Its target wasn’t Ye Zhongming but the two ice birds in the sky!
Seeing the ice birds dive, the eight legs used strength to leap. It reached the ice bird’s height, and the energy currents from the four arms disappeared. It turned into those Frost Monster’s skills. Four ice chains fired toward the two ice birds.
This monster was very agile and sudden. The two ice birds were diving down, and when they noticed that the situation was off and wanted to dodge it, it was too late. But they were vicious lifeforms and decided to fight it head-on. They opened their mouths. The corrosive poison fired. They didn’t aim at the chains but the monster’s body.
The ice birds loved to fight. The moment they attacked, they aimed for the kill.
This made Ye Zhongming anxious.
The growth of the two ice birds gave him great hope. He saw two lifeforms that could survive to the end. If they died before they matured, it would be a waste.
Ye Zhongming couldn’t fly into the sky like them. It was too late to use skills now, as the two chains were about to hit them. He was anxious and did something he hadn’t tried before.
