Chapter 2049

Bang!

Su Xiao swung his blade to slash a flying long spear, blue light flickering in his eyes.

With a puchi sound, the broken-blade-form Banishing pierced out from inside an Undead's body. That Undead only staggered a step, its expression unchanged, and it could even take four or five more hits.

"So that's how it is..."

The blue light in Su Xiao's eyes faded. He had just split Banishing into dust-sized particles, controlling Banishing to invade the Undead's body.

Through Banishing's exploration, Su Xiao found the Undead's weakness. In the center of the Undead's chest, over 80% of the undead worms were gathered. As long as one stabbed through here with a blade and activated Green Qing Qing Gang Ying energy, killing the undead worms through real damage, and then slashed off the Undead's head with another blade, the Undead could be solved at an extremely fast speed.

This method was highly likely feasible. However, the number of surrounding Undead was increasing, and there was also a monster that had just gathered, Fission Body Type 2. The strength of this thing was at least a Sixth Tier small boss.

Boom, boom, boom!

Fission Body Type 2 rushed to Su Xiao's front in a few steps, its speed extremely fast. It leaped up, both arms held high, and smashed toward the ground.

With a boom, a giant pit appeared, and large patches of cracks appeared on the surrounding ground.

Fission Body Type 2 stood up from the giant pit, while Su Xiao was nowhere to be seen.

An Undead wearing a plate-like wooden mask, with red patterns painted on his upper body, came to the giant pit. It was he who was directing the other Undead.

Just as Su Xiao retreated, a figure walked out from between the trees. He wore a metal mask covering the lower half of his face, and over a dozen conduits hung down from his upper body. It was Mogro.

Mogro looked up at "Fission Body Type 2," not caring about the Undead gathering more and more around.

"Things owed in the past always have to be repaid."

Mogro walked forward slowly.

"To be able to escape safely in this situation, you are outrageously strong. I originally wanted to cover your retreat, but it seems it's no longer needed."

Mogro hadn't fled just now. He had been hiding in the dark, wanting to find an opportunity to cover Su Xiao's retreat and then complete a certain thing.

However, Su Xiao didn't fear these Undead at all, which truly stunned Mogro. By the time he came to his senses and prepared to cover Su Xiao, Su Xiao had already retreated.

Mogro tore off the mask on his face with a rip. With his face covered in blood, he rushed toward Fission Body Type 2.

"Su du! (Native language: Leave, move aside, get out of the way)"

That Undead wearing the plate-like wooden mask roared. However, it was already too late. Mogro was grabbed in the hand by Fission Body Type 2 and crushed with a puchi sound.

Fission Body Type 2 froze in place. The Mogro crushed in its hand completely turned into undead cells. In terms of tier, this thing was more terrifying than undead worms; it evolved by devouring undead worms.

The Undead leader pondered for a moment, then turned and fled.

"Got this power, again. This time, it is already impossible, to wake up again."

A voice came from inside Fission Body Type 2. The undead cells on its body surged, and its body size gradually shrank.

Mogro was hiding some secret. Su Xiao knew this from the very beginning. When the other party agreed to cooperate, they agreed too simply. That feeling clearly meant they also wanted to come to Origin Island, just hadn't made up their mind yet.

Just like Su Xiao's real goal was the World Core, some things, even if they were allies, could not be made clear.

……

Two kilometers away, Su Xiao suddenly appeared in a bush.

"Woof."

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, who had blended into the environment, bumped into Su Xiao lightly, allowing Su Xiao to see it. It was Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang using the Wolf Clan heirloom to teleport Su Xiao over.

"Sure enough, there is a weakness."

Su Xiao sat in the bush. Although the previous battle didn't gain any benefits, it allowed him to understand the weakness of the Undead.

The purpose of Su Xiao's trip was not to fight the Undead to the death, but to find the transcendent plant · Dibam. Therefore, going deep into the center of Origin Island was more important.

Trying to contact Amu and Bahar through the adventure team channel, the result was not optimistic. There was basically no signal, and even the team storage space showed signs of isolation.

Just after going deep into Origin Island, the team was scattered. This was undoubtedly bad news.

Su Xiao took out a bottle of Ancient Secret Medicine. After drinking half a bottle, the stinging pain in his chest subsided.

Fighting the Undead could be described as a blood loss. Su Xiao killed four Undead, not only gaining nothing but consuming half a bottle of Ancient Secret Medicine.

"Xiang Bubu, let's sneak in."

"Woof."

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, who had blended into the environment, lifted its head and ran forward quickly to test the limit contact distance of the team channel.

After experimenting, it was learned that if they were more than one kilometer apart, the team channel would be interfered with. As for the reason, there was no need to guess; it was definitely Apocalypse Paradise interfering.

Su Xiao suspected that the reason for exposing his tracks earlier was highly likely Mogro's reason. This guy's aura was truly too unique.

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang scouted the path in front, while Su Xiao followed not too far behind. After traveling about two kilometers, the Goddess of Luck suddenly favored Su Xiao once.

Bahar: "Hey hey hey, is there a signal? Cowardly Apocalypse, dare you not block it!"

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang: "???"

Bahar: "There is a signal!"

Su Xiao: "Location."

Bahar: "We are in, uh~ a pile of bushes."

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang: "Be specific."

Bahar: "A pile of very dense bushes. This ghost place, you can't tell north, south, east, or west at all. The compass is almost spinning like an electric fan..."

……

By testing the signal blocking range of the team channel, Su Xiao soon reunited with Amu and Bahar.

"That brother won't be dead, right?"

Bahar sighed. It got along quite harmoniously with Mogro.

"Highly likely not, but next time we meet, whether we are enemies or friends will depend on the situation."

"Those Undead just now..."

Bahar was so clever, immediately guessing what Su Xiao was talking about.

"Highly likely, yes."

Su Xiao habitually wanted to light a cigarette, but considering this was Origin Island, he gave up this move and instead threw a Soul Crystal into his mouth.

"That brother has a strong ability to pull monsters. It seems he wanted to complete a certain thing, but was wary of your combat power, Boss, so he used this method to scatter the team?"

Bahar sighed low. If Mogro became an enemy next time they met, it wouldn't be soft-hearted.

Still in the original formation, after moving forward for about half an hour, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang sent news that two Undead appeared ahead.

Su Xiao raised his hand to signal Amu and Bahar to slow down, responsible for early warning in the rear.

Walking quickly through the forest, Su Xiao soon saw the two Undead ahead. These two were squatting in front of a deer carcass, their hands and the lower half of their cheeks covered in blood.

Crunch~ crunch~

The two Undead were chewing raw meat in their mouths, and their blood-stained hands were still digging into the deer carcass.

Su Xiao's aura was completely restrained, his feet stepping on dead leaves without making any sound.

Five meters, three meters, one meter.

When Su Xiao approached to within one meter behind an Undead, the long blade in his hand stabbed forward.

Puchi!

The long blade pierced through the very center of the Undead's chest, Green Qing Qing Gang Ying energy surged, sinking into the Undead's body along the wound.

The energy inside the Undead's body was devoured and extinguished. With Zhan Long Shan as the center, the flesh and blood in the surrounding area became transparent, with pale blue inside.

"Awoo~"

Half a miserable howl spread. Su Xiao drew his blade and slashed horizontally, cutting off the Undead's head with one blow.

The raw meat grabbed in the Undead's hand fell to the ground. Black threadworms surged from the wound, but these black threadworms only twisted for a moment before quickly dissolving.

Two blades, one Undead died completely. Practical combat proved that Su Xiao's previous conjecture was correct: the Undead were not perfect creatures; they had weaknesses.

99% of such powerful creatures spawned by viruses would have weaknesses. If one wanted to have no weaknesses, one could only accumulate strength by oneself, constantly developing and perfecting one's own abilities.

With a thud, the headless Undead fell to the ground, and across from Su Xiao, there was still one Undead.

"Hello."

A smile appeared on Su Xiao's face. In Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's words, once Su Xiao smiled, the enemy basically had no good end.

……

On the outskirts of Origin Island, over a dozen figures walked quickly through the forest.

"Aren't these Undead a bit too strong? And... is this ghost place really a Fifth Tier area?"

A contractor from Apocalypse Paradise muttered to himself. He was among the first batch of people from the Apocalypse Paradise side to arrive at Origin Island.

"The stronger the Undead, the better. Anyway, they won't attack us."

A cute girl with twin tails spoke, her somewhat baby-fat face very likable.

"Stop, high-energy reaction appeared ahead again."

The perception type wearing glasses in the team spoke. He looked quite gentlemanly.

"It's Undead again. Let's go around. They look quite disgusting, full of worms inside~"

The cute girl with twin tails hugged her arms, her hands rubbing the outside of her arms.

"Wait, this one is a bit special."

The eyes of the perception type with glasses narrowed because that Undead actually took the initiative to approach.

Boom!

A loud noise spread, and mud flew past the glasses man's face. Just a moment ago, he had perceived that the other party was 500 meters away, and the next moment, it appeared in front of them.

Twelve contractors were all frozen in place. Although there was a hint from Apocalypse Paradise before, after seeing the appearance of this Undead, they were still somewhat fearful.

This Undead was about one meter nine tall, wearing a metal mask on the lower half of his face, and a huge eyeball on his left chest position. This eyeball had no pupils and was covered in bloodshot eyes.

The most terrifying thing was the tail of this Undead. It was a long tail composed of undead cells, slender and sharp.

"This... doesn't look friendly."

The cute girl with twin tails gulped.

"Run!"

The perception type roared. The next moment, a pitch-black long tail pierced through his head, killing him instantly on the spot.

"How could... this be."

The cute girl with twin tails was somewhat dazed. Before she could recover, a cold and irresistible large hand grabbed her head.

"Save, save me!"

White and yellow lights exploded on the cute girl with twin tails, clearly activating life-saving props, but it was useless.

The black-tailed Undead's hand flicked, revealing coldness in its casualness, throwing the cute girl with twin tails up. That long tail formed by undead worms opened, biting off more than half of the cute girl with twin tails' body.

"Ah!! Who will save..."

The desperate crying sound spread. After a hair-raising chewing sound, the cute girl with twin tails disappeared, and the black-tailed Undead's gaze turned toward the other contractors.

The black-tailed Undead was no one else but Mogro. To be precise, he had now evolved into the Gluttony Monarch · Mogro.
