Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 626: Venomous Snake

(A glass made of metal fell to the ground. Intensely fragrant liquor splashed everywhere and painted an irregular pattern on the ground. The glass with the alpine eagle pattern on it was quickly flattened by a thick-soled leather boot. The groan of twisted metal echoed sharply, causing the soldiers around the restaurant to look sideways. josei

"What are you looking at, you trash? I'm in a terrible mood. If you don't want to die, get lost." It was hard to imagine a huge roar like that of a beast coming from the mouth of the skinny man in the dining room who was as thin as a withered tree. His expression was as twisted as the wine glass beneath his feet, and his mood was extremely bad.

"Calm down, Laurie," said the sharp-faced man with the gray and red beard, sitting nearby. "Even if you break your throat, there's no way you can make those Bescord boys lose a chunk of meat."

"I swear, Vader, I'm going to make them look good, especially that kid named Reina. I'm not going to let this go if I'm humiliated in public!" '"I'm going to cut off his limbs and cut his neck with this knife. It won't be too deep or shallow, enough to bleed him to death for a few days. Oh, and that woman, I'm going to be ruthless. Fuck her and make her regret staying in Beth Cord's group." Lao said viciously as he clenched his dark yellow teeth.

"Shut up!" Vader shouted, "Laurie, I don't mind cutting off your tongue if you can't control your cheap mouth. Do you know who that woman is? I've heard that the empress of Adahua Planet has an affair with Bescot. That girl should be it. If you provoke her, we won't have a good life."

He stood up and said, "I'm going to see if there's anything I can do, Laurie. Don't mess with Beth Cod. Those young nobles are not in the same world as us. You don't have to mess with them."

Laurie snorted and did not agree. Their hunting group came from the surface and was attached to a noble sect. It was certain that these people were all warriors who had experienced hundreds of battles, and they had never been used to seeing the disciples of the great clans. This was one of the most basic contradictions between the surface and Babylon. Laurie was no exception, especially since his only relative had died at the hands of the Floating Island Nobility Clan. This made him hate the Floating Island Nobility Clan even more.

In some of Laurie's unknown deeds, there was a history of torturing and killing the nobles of the floating island. Of course, these were extremely secret matters, not even Vader, the leader of the hunting group, knew about them. Laurie's eyes flickered with a venomous snake-like light. He had already thrown Vader's words out of the clouds of the Nine Heavens. Apart from not provoking Lucy, it was not within his consideration to do anything else.

"I want to teach those brats a lesson. We must let them know that their status as nobles does not give them much advantage on the battlefield." "Who's coming with me?" Laurie looked at the others.

Two men who had been friends with Laurie patted their chests in support. The other three revealed hesitant expressions. Laurie's expression was gloomy. "It's fine not to go, but if someone tells Vader something he shouldn't have said. Trust me, you wouldn't want to see that."

There were still a few of them, so when Cage walked into the restaurant, Laurie smiled and walked up. He stood in front of Cage and bowed, "Isn't this Young Master Cage?"

Cage frowned. "Get out of the way."

"Don't worry, Young Master Cage. I want to teach those kids a lesson. Isn't Young Master Cage interested in participating?" Laurie said straightforwardly. He remembered it very clearly. A few days ago, there were some unpleasant sparks between Cage and Allen, so they were more confident in pulling him into the gang.

Cage's eyelids twitched a few times, and the gray and black ponytails seemed to flash in front of him again. Catherine's beautiful but cold face appeared in her mind again, as if she was staring at him. Cage involuntarily trembled and waved his hand, "You're going to kill yourself. Don't pull on me."

He pushed Laurie away impatiently and led them straight into the dining room.

Laurie looked at Cage and said, "Coward."

Since Cage didn't participate, the number of people was a little small. Laurie didn't care. It was a noble method to rely on numbers to win, and surface warriors were more accustomed to fighting against one another. That was an ability that was forced out by the environment. They did not possess many resources like nobles.

Lena didn't know that he was being targeted by a poisonous snake, so even if he knew, he wouldn't care. After simply replenishing the necessary supplies, they gathered their troops and set off. Two tactical flying cars drove out of Kaiyan base. Just as dawn fell, the sky turned gray. Occasionally, winter snow would fall, blurring the outline of things.

After the flying car left, three flying motorcycles drove out of the woods outside the base. After removing the blindfold, Laurie made a gesture and the other two nodded in understanding. The flying motorcycle left the ground and gently rolled up a few snowflakes, hanging far behind the tactical vehicle. The snow, the woods are their best cover. It was like a venomous snake hibernating in the snow, approaching its prey step by step.

The surface was cold, but the cave was surprisingly warm.

The Holly Forest has a large area of karst cave terrain. Its exit may be an inconspicuous cave under a dangerous cliff, or it may be in the trunk of an ancient tree that is already hollow. From these entrances, one would discover that the inner branches stretched out in all directions, like a gigantic labyrinth beneath the ground. Karst caves are common terrain on Frost Planet. They are usually warm and humid. It was like a different world from the earth's surface. Some guessed that the karst cave would lead directly to the earth's core. Otherwise, where would the warm air flowing through the underground maze come from?

Of course, no one would explore it. Karst caves were dangerous. There were many dangerous lives living in the maze, and the biggest one was definitely a hidden monster. These natives of the planets that lived in karst caves bloomed everywhere, occupying the underground and surface worlds with headhunters.

Because the temperature of the cave is higher than that of the earth's surface, there are many warm and cold-loving plants growing in the underground labyrinth. However, without sunlight, these plants are usually dark or light gray, completely different from the common green plants on Earth. Some of these ferns grow plump leaves whose meridians are filled with water and are natural reservoirs for underground organisms.

A creature that looked like a lizard, the size of a wolf, and covered in dark red thick armor crawled out of nowhere. The two eyeballs on the head of this creature, known as the Earth Dragon in federal documents, had long since degenerated into ornaments. Its eyes had been tightly closed, leaving only a crack. Lil 'Dragon's perception of the outside world mainly came from its sense of smell, touch, and bat-like ultrasonic localization.

It looked very heavy, but in reality, Lil 'Dragon was a dexterous hunter. Rich muscle fibers could allow them to erupt with tremendous kinetic energy in an instant, and their speed could reach up to 200 kilometers per hour in an instant. This meant that when they pounced on their prey, the naked eye could only catch an afterimage.

Now the earth dragon was slowly crawling under a fern. This completely camouflaged action would cause other creatures to misjudge its speed, causing it to be unlucky. At this moment, Lil 'Dragon raised his head and spat out a long tongue. Its tongue was like a frog that could pop out several times its body length and whip its prey like a whip. The thorns that covered it usually brought along a piece of skin and flesh when they struck their prey, but now, the long tongue rolled up to large dark leaves.

The water in the veins of the leaves was released after their teeth were chomped in the mouth of the Earth Dragon. Most of them were swallowed by Lil 'Dragon, while a small portion flowed out from his lips and palates, dampening the ground.

As the earth dragon replenished its water, a rock above its head moved. It looked like a light gray stone, but it turned into a bat-like triangular head. The two slender red eyeballs on the monster's head rolled out and quietly sized up the earth dragon below. Next, Rock stretched out its hands and feet. It turned out to be a hidden monster hanging upside down, disguised as a stone.

The lurking monster's sharp teeth firmly hooked onto the stone crevices to secure its body. It approached Lil 'Dragon from above. Because the skin of the lurking monster had no pores, when it shut its mouth tightly, it did not reveal a trace of scent. Lil 'Dragon did not know that danger was approaching. He rolled up another bush of branches and leaves and sent it into his mouth. The hidden monster had already arrived above his head. Finally, the ruler of the underground world opened his mouth. At the same time, he smelled something and smelled a long-brewed high-frequency sound wave on Lil 'Dragon's head.

The earth dragon shook drunkenly, then spat out a pale yellow blood from its eyes, nostrils, and mouth. The blood was also mixed with minced meat and fine bone fibers, which were the intracranial tissue shattered by the high-frequency sonic booms of the lurking monster.

The karst cave was still quiet, and only the same kind of high-frequency sonic booms could be heard from the hidden monsters. Even Lil 'Dragons, who were also proficient in sound waves, could not hear this frequency of sound in their ears. It was the secret weapon of the Lurking Monster.

After killing the earth dragon, the hidden monster finally landed on the ground. It used its sharp black claws to lift the thick armor of the earth dragon. After exposing the skin that was bleeding under the nail, the earth dragon held it in its hand and sent it to its mouth. The hidden monster opened its mouth and stuck out a purple tongue from its large mouth that had been split to its cheeks. The purple tongue rolled up the earth dragon and sent it into its mouth. The big mouth of the hidden monster closed and it immediately bit the earth dragon in half.

Blood flowed like water!

While the hidden monster was enjoying the feast, a dark red dagger easily stabbed into its back. First, it cut its spine horizontally, then it went upwards and cut its organs all the way. Finally, the dagger stopped in its large heart. The pitch black lines on the dagger were like a bottomless pit, continuously absorbing the essence blood from the heart of the hidden monster.

The divine light in the hidden monster's eyes quickly disappeared. A powerful palm supported the weight of its body and placed the corpse on the ground. Behind the hidden monster, Alan's face emerged from the shadows.
