If it weren’t for the flickering blood glow in the skeleton’s dark eye sockets and its crazy dog-like movements, he would’ve thought that he had seen a luxurious, expensive, and boring piece of art.\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\u003Cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When it rushed over, the same sound appeared everywhere around the concave, and even across the valley.\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\u003Cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They were so dazzling under the moonlight that even Tang Qi was shaken a bit, and when his heartfelt it was absurd, his eyes finally focused on the first golden skeleton.\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\u003Cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A faint light created a picture that reflected in Tang Qi’s eyes.\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\u003Cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">[Extraordinary Creatures: Resentful Gold Diggers. ]\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\u003Cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">[State: Anger. ]\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\u003Cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">[Information Fragment 1: It’s so dazzling.

His eyes glanced around the valley, in addition to the “gold glow” coming out from the ground, there were some places that were faintly emitting a more dangerous aura.\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\u003Cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">“Everyone’s here?

The other golden skeletons let out a shrill cry and then rushed up at a rapid speed. Soon, a huge “golden ball” appeared in the valley, rumbling down to the bottom of the valley.\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\u003Cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This scene was enough to make many greedy people crazy.\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\u003Cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, these things were unattractive to “freaks”.

They could only send out wrathful and sharp howls.\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\u003Cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Just as the golden ball rolled deep in the valley and was about to land, there was a “boom”, and a big hole suddenly opened in the soft earth, and a terrifying giant mouth suddenly appeared, its head was dark all over, and its mouth occupied almost all the area.

In the process, the golden ball quickly cut into strips of golden slime in its mouth, and then “popped out”.\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\u003Cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The huge worm was about to swallow the “tempting smell” alone.\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\u003Cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Caw!\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\u003Cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The whistling mountain wind couldn’t suppress the cry, and an equally huge figure suddenly descended from the sky. Its terrible claws pressed the worm that was going to escape.
