Chapter 380 The pangolin is in danger?
After finishing his work at the academy, Xiao Yu began to study the Thousand-Machine Umbrella.
The first time he got his hands on the umbrella, he immediately activated the fifth mechanism.
Now, he can open the first four and the fifth steps very skillfully.
Once triggered, this fifth mechanism unleashes hundreds of tiny, flying needles.
According to Xiao Yu's estimation, anyone below the fifth rank who gets hit by this attack is almost certain to die!
What he's thinking about now is whether he can apply this mechanism to a crossbow.
If successful, they might be able to design a repeating crossbow, or perhaps a Zhuge repeating crossbow.
At that time, the already incredibly powerful Tier 3-4 quasi-divine weapons will have their power double or even tripled!
Ding!
At that moment, a clear voice rang in Xiao Yu's ears.
He casually answered the call.
Then, I heard a 'splashing' sound of water.
Immediately afterwards, a soft and seductive voice rang out: "Guess what I'm doing?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yu's lips twitched slightly.
He was very familiar with that voice.
There's no way I wouldn't be familiar with her, ever since Catwoman told Wu Weier.
After his own sound-transmitting insect could transmit sound over thousands of miles...
Wu Weier would communicate telepathically with the catwoman, the bunny-eared girl, and the wolf girl every few days.
The three beast-eared girls also used a communication insect to share their stories with their two companions.
And then there's the proud Queen of Beasts, Medusa, who frequently tries to communicate with Xiao Yu telepathically.
They'd say a few words now and then, like today's evocative sound of water.
"Speak, what do you want?" Xiao Yu rolled his eyes and said irritably.
"Hmph! Can't I come to you just because I'm fine?" Queen Medusa's cold snort rang in my ears, along with the sound of a slap hitting the water.
Well, Xiao Yu was now even more certain of what this woman was doing.
Xiao Yu said helplessly, "Let's get down to business."
Although this wasn't the first time Queen Medusa had tried to talk to him.
But every time I contacted him, it was for something important.
"I sense something unusual about the Beast Mountain Range; the black aura has thickened again... It seems some new, powerful ferocious beasts have appeared in the forest." Queen Medusa's tone turned grave.
"A new, powerful ferocious beast?" Xiao Yu asked suspiciously.
Both of the only two eighth-tier ferocious beasts in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range have been controlled by Medusa.
Where have these new, powerful, and ferocious beasts appeared from?
Moreover, no matter how powerful the ferocious beast is, it's nothing to the Queen of Beasts!
"Maybe I'm just imagining things."
Queen Medusa smiled, her tone somewhat uncertain, "Anyway, be careful. That giant tortoise is too big; it's likely to attract covetousness or the attention of those things."
"You don't need to worry about me. You're the one who needs to be careful," Xiao Yu said with concern.
He knew that the spatial rift there was only being temporarily suppressed.
"Hmph! Who's worried about you? And... don't underestimate me!" A haughty snort rang in her ears, and Medusa said arrogantly, "My strength has increased quite a bit, and I'll be at the half-step ninth level soon!"
"Oh, that's great! Congratulations!" Xiao Yu said with a smile upon hearing this.
Queen Medusa's talent is definitely among the strongest of the orcs.
According to Xiao Yu's estimation, even if it's not an SS-level talent, it's probably close enough.
Once it advances further, its strength will become even more terrifying.
"Alright, let's stop here for now. It's good that you're alright." Queen Medusa wanted to say something more to Xiao Yu, but Xiao Yu suddenly stopped responding.
Deep within the Beast Mountain Range, in the Beast City, inside the Holy Temple.
Medusa gazed towards the Beast Mountain Range, a hint of worry in her beautiful eyes.
She wanted to tell Xiao Yu that she had sensed a new eighth-tier ferocious beast.
The legendary cataclysmic event may arrive at any moment.
Her Majesty the Queen wanted to remind Xiao Yu to be more careful.
Unfortunately, when she tried to sense it again, it had vanished without a trace.
"Perhaps... I'm overthinking it," Medusa murmured.
"However, to ensure everything goes perfectly, let Hou Ji investigate."
……
At this moment, in the City Lord's Mansion in Dragon City.
"A special place?" The pangolin's thoughts echoed in Xiao Yu's mind.
They say they discovered a special place deep underground.
Moreover, as soon as the pangolin transmitted its thoughts, its aura became slightly violent.
It's clear that the environment there is very unusual.
That's why Xiao Yu stopped chatting with Medusa.
"Let's go take a look first."
Thinking of this, he sent a telepathic message to Honglian, giving her some instructions.
With a flash, he disappeared.
A moment later, Xiao Yu followed the pangolin's trail and plunged deep into the ground.
They didn't find the pangolin until they went more than 3,000 meters underground.
Xiao Yu remembered that scientists in his previous life had tested that the altitude at 3,000 meters was no more than 100 degrees Celsius.
But... the lowest temperature here is over 200 degrees Celsius.
In some areas, the temperature has even exceeded 1,000 degrees Celsius.
Ordinary people would be instantly vaporized if they came here.
Not to mention, there's lava everywhere here, and the oxygen would be completely burned away.
Of course, these negative effects are completely negligible to Xiao Yu.
After all, pangolins have always fed on meteorites from outer space, and have consumed thousands of tons of meteorites.
With their current physical bodies, neither he nor the pangolin would melt even at temperatures of several thousand degrees.
"Hiss~" Upon seeing its owner arrive, the pangolin immediately pounced over.
"Be good! Stop fooling around!" Xiao Yu pried open the pangolin's head to stop the little guy's five- or six-meter-long tongue from rolling over. Just thinking about its mouth full of sticky liquid was unbearable.
"Hiss..." The pangolin immediately hissed pitifully, tucking its tail between its legs.
"Alright! Here's a thousand energy points for you!" Xiao Yu rubbed his temples, pressed down on the little guy's head, and fed him a thousand energy points. "Don't move yet, let me heal you a bit more."
Although the pangolin was very docile when it saw him.
However, this underground environment seems somewhat unusual.
The pangolin was now enveloped in a thick black aura.
Moreover, this black mist is different from the one outside.
As if they were alive, they clung to the pangolin like maggots clinging to its bones.
Even though the pangolin had moved far away from the place where the black energy was dense, it was still unable to escape it.
So much so that its eyes are now tinged with a scarlet hue.
"What a strange thing." A sense of apprehension rose in Xiao Yu's heart.
With a thought, he directly used his healing power.
Instantly, a vibrant green life force enveloped the pangolin.
"Hiss~" the pangolin made a joyful sound.
Its seven- or eight-meter-long tail swayed slightly with excitement.
Almost in the blink of an eye, the dark aura on its body was completely wiped away and vanished.
"Hiss hiss hiss..." But just as these dark auras were completely eliminated, Xiao Yu heard a piercing sound in his head, a sound that was extremely high-decibel.
If there were any glass here, it would be shattered into pieces instantly.
If it weren't for Xiao Yu's physical body being stronger than imagined...
That sound could probably puncture his eardrums instantly.
"Hoo~" Xiao Yu took a deep breath, rubbed his ears, frowned at the pangolin, and asked, "Tell me, what did you find? How did you end up in such a mess?"
