Chapter 1316 - 1316 Regular Meeting with Mutated Beasts
1316 Regular Meeting with Mutated Beasts
Chu Nan and Angie Prairie activated Life Explosion at the same time. Coupled with the effective support of Carola, the group’s footsteps finally became smooth.
After leaving behind at least a hundred ferocious beast corpses, everyone finally rushed out of the valley under the lead of Angie Prairie.
As soon as he stepped out of the valley pass, the area ahead suddenly became clear. He saw lush greenery, but he collided with an extremely vast forest.
However, the trees in this forest were relatively short, so it did not affect his vision. At a glance, he could see several majestic mountains in the distance and green shadows. He did not know what was going on over there.
After everyone rushed out of the valley, the ferocious beasts that had surrounded and intercepted them seemed to have sensed that they could not stop them at all, so they simply gave up on chasing. The remaining hundred or so ferocious beasts tacitly turned around and fled back to the valley. Soon, only the mess on the ground was left, and not a shadow could be seen.
Seeing the last ferocious beast disappear around the corner of the valley, the few of them fell to the ground and only cared about breathing heavily.
In fact, after Angie Prairie’s treatment, the injuries on their bodies were not serious. However, they had exhausted a large amount of strength in the battle with those ferocious beasts just now. Coupled with the fact that they had been enveloped by the shadow of death, they were too nervous. Now that they had finally relaxed, they seemed to be a little exhausted.
After a pause, a middle-aged man with a long scar on his face but a rather stable and loyal temperament walked towards Chu Nan and the other two and sincerely thanked them.
After being polite, Chu Nan asked them about the exact situation.
From the fact that the youngest girl among these people should be at least 25 years old, they were clearly not a team related to the participants of the Garden Hunting Assembly.
As expected, after chatting, the other party revealed that they were indeed adventurers who had come to the Endless Abyss. These dozen or so people were all a team, and it was a team that had taken risks together for a long time.
However, due to the strength of the team, they had at most entered the 24th level of the Endless Abyss. They originally planned to strive to break through this time and at least explore the 25th level. They did not expect to be surrounded by such a large group of ferocious beasts on the 19th level and almost be wiped out here.
“Speaking of which, isn’t it too strange?” At this point, a young man called Dorek in his thirties in the team frowned and said, “We clearly received news before we set off that the Empire Army had just fought with those fellows. During this period of time, it should be regular in the abyss. How did we encounter such a large group of mutated beasts on the 19th floor?”
The middle-aged leader called Mafaan also frowned deeply. He thought for a moment and shook his head, “Perhaps the information is wrong? Or…”
At this point, he paused and glanced at Chu Nan and the other two, “This is fake news deliberately released by the Empire’s military.”
“Fake news?” The others were stunned, “Why?”
Mafaan did not answer. Instead, his gaze swept past Chu Nan and the other two again. He hesitated for a moment and asked, “The three of you, if I’m not wrong, you should be participants in this Garden Hunting Assembly, right?”
“I am, and so is she.” Chu Nan pointed at Carola and Angie Prairie, “She’s not.”
“She’s not?” Mafaan looked at Angie Prairie in surprise.
Angie Prairie was clearly so young, and her strength had been extremely obvious in the breakout just now. Such a young genius with super strength was actually not here to participate in the Garden Hunting Assembly? Then why was she here…
Of course, if Chu Nan did not say this, Mafaan would not ask further. After a pause, he continued, “Since the three of you are participants in the Garden Hunting Assembly, according to the rules of the Garden Hunting Assembly that I’ve asked, you must be very interested in hunting mutated beasts in the abyss. We happen to know…”
“Wait.” Chu Nan interrupted him, “Answer a few questions first.”
“The first question is, you…” Chu Nan turned to Dorek, “What do you mean by regular?”
“Oh, this is not a secret.” Dorek stood up and pointed at the vast forest ahead, “Do you see that? If this forest was before Ann Period, it would definitely be filled with all kinds of mutated beasts. These guys reproduce very quickly. If we don’t care for them for a period of time, there will be so many crawling on the ground. Therefore, every once in a while, the Empire Army will directly send people in to clean it up. At the same time, they have to organize us adventurers to help sweep it. After cleaning it up, there are many fewer mutated beasts and it will temporarily settle down for a period of time. This period of time is called Ann Period by us adventurers.”
“We planned to continue exploring the deeper levels while An regularly so that we could have the chance to obtain more precious materials in the future.” The girl who had been saved by Chu Nan added, “However, I didn’t expect that we would encounter so many mutated beasts now. This is really too unreasonable. Although we used to encounter mutated beasts on the 19th floor, there are too few like this.”
“Yes, then the second question is, what’s a mutated beast? What’s the difference between it and ordinary ferocious beasts?” Chu Nan asked again.
“Mutated beasts… are actually similar to ferocious beasts…” Dorek scratched his head, “How should I explain it…”
He thought for a moment and simply stood up. He turned around and walked to the exit of the valley, dragging out a ferocious beast they had killed in the process of escaping.
“Look, this guy actually doesn’t look much different from ordinary ferocious beasts.” Dorek pointed at the ferocious beast he had dragged over and said, “This guy… wait.”
Dorek suddenly turned to a silent white-haired man not far away and asked, “Old Nar, what should this guy be called?”
“Domirak’s Three-Winged Spike Howling Wolf. You can flip the hair on its back and see three meat buns on it. This wolf has not completely evolved. When it has completely evolved, these three meat buns will grow three wings and it can fly.”
“Domi… what else? This name is really long.” Dorek waved his hand, “In any case, as long as Old Nar knows it, it’s definitely a ferocious beast recorded in the ‘Pan Milky Way Ferocious Beast Encyclopedia’. However, if you’ve really seen that wolf, you’ll discover that this thing is still a little different from that wolf. According to many guesses, this wolf mutated after running here.”
As he spoke, Dorek took out a small knife from his bosom. He raised the knife and cut open the corpse of the Domirak’s Three-Winged Spike Howling Wolf on the ground.
“Don’t cut it randomly. That thing is in the meatball in the middle behind it,” Old Nar suddenly shouted.
“Oh, got it.”
Dorek replied and flipped his wrist. The small path cut along the back of that wolf and quickly cut open the meatball behind it. A black ball flickering with a strange light was revealed.
“Eh?”
Seeing this ball, Chu Nan could not help but be surprised.
