On the sea surface, the Sword Armor Flame Beast let out a low growl.
Roar! What do you want from me?
The immense Single-horned Tiger Whale rolled on the sea surface, creating huge splashes, but its voice was gentle.
Chirp chirp! I found something good, let’s go get it together.
Instantly, the Sword Armor Flame Beast’s spirit was lifted.
Roar! What is guarding that place?
This Single-horned Tiger Whale was not stupid. If there were only benefits, it certainly wouldn’t come looking for it. Clearly, the place was either narrow or guarded by powerful Mutated Beasts.
Chirp chirp! The place is a bit small, I can’t fit in. And there are two annoying guys guarding it.
Although the two beasts could communicate through mental fluctuations, this kind of communication was quite vague since the tiger whale didn’t possess human cognition or thought processes.
Finally, after roughly determining that the two “annoying guys” were shorter than the Single-horned Tiger Whale, the Sword Armor Flame Beast decided to check it out.
As long as there were no high-level Mutated Beasts that were larger than the Single-horned Tiger Whale, the Sword Armor Flame Beast had the confidence to suppress them. Hence, “Roar! Lead the way, let’s fuck them up!”
Chirp chirp! Fuck them up.
With a turn of its enormous body, the Single-horned Tiger Whale took the lead towards the Outer Sea, followed by the Sword Armor Flame Beast. The sharp, black, long spikes on its back tore through the sea waves.
Chirp chirp! While passing by the Tiger Whale Group, a few curious Little Tiger Whales chirped as if greeting the Sword Armor Flame Beast passing by.
This time the distance was even further than the last time. Both the whale and the beast swam for almost two hours before stopping, and then the Single-horned Tiger Whale submerged.
Seeing this, the Sword Armor Flame Beast followed. In just a while, the two Mutated Beasts reached a thousand meters deep under the sea. The surroundings were pitch-black and silent, and the sea water was ice-cold.
Upon reaching this depth, the Sword Armor Flame Beast expanded its perception to the maximum, to avoid being ambushed by a Deep Sea Giant Beast lurking in the darkness.
Chirp chirp! We’re almost there.
Only a few tens of meters away, the Single-horned Tiger Whale’s call could be heard, but the sound was so soft that it was swallowed up by the natural fluctuations of the sea water before traveling much further.
As expected, after swimming a few more kilometers, the Single-horned Tiger Whale’s body slowly decelerated, and the Sword Armor Flame Beast immediately reduced its speed, its sleek and powerful body aligning parallel to the whale.
At the same time, it realized why the tiger whale had stopped.
A hundred meters away on the pitch-black seabed, a mountain peak several hundred meters tall emerged from the ground. However, that wasn’t important; the critical part was the cave on the mountainside.
Emitting a faint blue light, the cave entrance was guarded by two Double-headed Mutated Giant Pythons, their bodies, 27 meters and 19 meters long, respectively, covered in blue and white scale armor.
On both heads of the larger python grew a sharp horn, resembling a Flood Dragon, exuding an astonishingly oppressive aura.
From the invisible aura sensed, the Sword Armor Flame Beast knew that these two Double-headed Giant Pythons were very strong, much stronger than other Mutated Beasts of the same size.
No wonder it had sought its help. Clearly, even without the cave’s size restriction, the Single-horned Tiger Whale might not necessarily be able to overpower them.
Or rather, it wouldn’t choose to take the risk.
Based on its observations during this period, the Sword Armor Flame Beast found that the hunting methods of these deep-sea Mutated Beasts mainly depended on their body size and type of creature.
Under normal conditions, a Mutated Beast 20 meters long would not hunt prey of a similar size but would prey on those less than 10 meters in size.
To avoid getting injured and then targeted by other stronger Mutated Creatures, they’d adopt this tactic.
There were almost no beasts like the Sword Armor Flame Beast, which specifically targeted prey much larger than themselves, or even twice their size since this behavior would mean certain death under normal conditions.
At this moment, the Single-horned Tiger Whale let out a low sound.
Chirp chirp! I’ll deal with the big one; you take care of the small one. After we kill them and go in, we’ll split the good stuff half-half.
Roar! No problem, but how did you find out there’s something good in there? The Sword Armor Flame Beast was a bit puzzled.
With a diameter of about five meters, the cave entrance was definitely too small for the Single-horned Tiger Whale. Under such circumstances, how did it know there was something good so deep underwater?
Chirp chirp! 1 smelled a nice aroma when I swam above it. Saying that, the Single-horned Tiger Whale gently shook its single horn, the tip of which had many dense small holes.
These small holes would emit faint energy fluctuations when filtering seawater.
The Sword Armor Flame Beast paused for a moment.
Unexpectedly, the evolved single horn of this whale wasn’t for fighting, but for treasure hunting or, rather, had a perception function.
Perhaps it was because of the single horn that it didn’t provoke the Sword Armor Beast as it sensed it was not to be trifled with.
Just then, the two Deep Sea Giant Pythons sensed them with their cold snake eyes, and a circle of greyish-black mist spread around their bodies, dissolving into the surrounding sea water.
Roar! They spotted us. Let’s fuck them up!
With a low snarl, the Sword Armor Flame Beast’s fierce and fiery aura burst out. Its claws pressed down on the seabed, stirring up rolling sands and shooting them out.
However, it did not charge head-on but circled around in an arc, leaving the frontal attack to the Single-horned Tiger Whale due to its huge size.
It was simply a natural meat shield, just like Justin Welan.
Bang! The seawater exploded.
Taking advantage of its size, the Single-horned Tiger Whale directly charged towards the two Giant Pythons, its body draped in thick, armor-like scales, akin to a deep-sea tank.
Hiss! Eyeing the approaching Single-horned Tiger Whale, the two Deep Sea Giant Pythons let out a chilly hiss, and their coiled bodies suddenly sprang out to meet it.
As the two sides closed in to within a hundred meters, the mouth of the Single-horned Tiger Whale opened wide, and in an instant, a powerful suction force engulfed the two giant pythons and the surrounding seawater..
