SWNOVELS Chapter 20: Berserk Centipede
Chapter 20: Berserk Centipede
In the river, the electric eel swam out of the cave bit by bit.
The river water flowed like a small black tide. It was cold and icy as it enveloped his entire body.
The Electric Field skill was released, and silhouettes emitting golden light appeared in the dark sea. Chu Lingjun took a look and commanded the electric eel to swim towards one of the big fish with a strange shape.
This fish was long and cylindrical, it had a snout like a crocodile, and its upper and lower jaws were covered with two rows of dagger-like sharp teeth.
It had the body of a fish, but it had the mouth of a crocodile.
At first glance, it seemed like God had pieced the two species together haphazardly.
Chu Lingjun narrowed his eyes and recognized that it was a mutated beast — the crocodile gar.
In his previous life, the crocodile gar was known to be very famous around his area. A crocodile gar could destroy a whole lake. Once people found this thing in the park, the management would immediately get to work and capture it!
They would rather suck out the lake water for half a day to catch this beast. One could imagine how notorious this fish was.
The crocodile gar in front of him was nearly three meters tall. It was covered in hard diamond-shaped scale armor. It was fat and strong, and it looked majestic.
When the surrounding small fish saw the crocodile gar, they immediately avoided it and did not dare to get too close.
Chu Lingjun had once seen a video of someone catching this beast in the water. In the end, when he wanted to peel the scales for him, an accident happened.
The scales were so thick that it broke his weapon!
In the end, he used an angle grinder to cut the crocodile gar's scales, but it was to no avail!
Before the mutation, the crocodile gar could grow to three meters!
This size could already cause harm to tourists.
This was also the reason why the park had to catch the crocodile gar as soon as it was found.
Now, its armor was so thick that it helped with its strength. It would be strange if the crocodile gar did not become the overlord of the fish.
As soon as the electric eel clone approached, the crocodile gar immediately discovered it.
Without saying a word, it fiercely rushed toward the electric eel, opened its bloody mouth, and was ready to give the electric eel a fierce blow.
However… As a blue electric arc flashed across the electric eel's body, the crocodile gar, which was the king of the nearby river, stiffened and trembled. In the end, it became a meal for the electric eel!
After killing the crocodile gar, Chu Lingjun controlled the electric eel clone to tear apart the scales of the crocodile gar with its teeth and then ate it carefully.
He only ate the outermost layer of the fish meat and did not touch the internal organs or the fish eggs.
This was because the crocodile gar's internal organs and eggs were highly toxic.
Just like crayfish, no one cared if it was an invasive species.
After killing the crocodile gar, the electric eel clone continued to move forward slowly in the river.
According to the news, the merchant ship of the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce sank in the water about ten kilometers away from here.
It wasn't very far, but to be honest, Chu Lingjun wasn't really interested in going.
Firstly, the ship had sunk for more than a week. The good stuff would have been gone long ago.
Second, there were many fishermen like the Wild Wave Company that had looted the place.
It would be best if he could salvage the treasure from the sunken ship, but it didn't matter if he couldn't.
The electric eel clone could also evolve by hunting other beasts anyways.
If he were to meet the Wild Wave Company and the others, his electric eel clone would be in danger. He did not want to get into such a risk.
Thirdly, Chu Lingjun felt that something was odd with the sudden sinking of the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce's cargo ship.
To be able to sail on Lianjiang, the ship must be naturally equipped with a level-three alloy that could withstand the attacks of a level-three exotic beast. They would also deploy powerful guards on standby.
The Four Seas Chamber of Commerce was a well-known chamber of commerce in Lan City, so they had a lot of experience in this area. They shouldn't make some low-level mistakes that would cause the ship to sink.
Coupled with the fact that the officials had yet to announce the true cause of the sinking, Chu Lingjun felt that there was something deeper than an accident going on here.
Therefore, Chu Lingjun's plan was to let his clone scout the ship step by step. At the very least, it would be the most stable way to approach the sunken ship.
Apart from the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce, there were also many other merchant ships, cargo ships, and transport ships that sank in the river.
If the electric eel used the Electric Field to scan the riverbed, it might be able to pick up other treasures. contemporary romance
When they were in Quicksand Park, Chu Lingjun had the electric eel sweep the bottom of the lake. It was more of a mess than a sea of treasure.
Mobile phones, plastic bottles, plastic bags, food packaging bags, toys, and so on were found.
The more valuable items were a gold necklace and various banknotes and coins.
Those few added up to nearly two to three thousand dollars.
If a small park had such a harvest, then wouldn't Lianjiang have more?

[Your Soul Clone has finished eating, ten experience points gained!]
After eating two more Level One exotic beasts, two messages appeared on his stats page.
Mutated beasts that had not yet entered the ranks and they only gave one experience point.
As for the Level One exotic beasts, they immediately gave him 10 points!
Just as the electric eel was enjoying a huge crab, suddenly, a one-meter-long ice blade broke out of the mud in the riverbed not far from it and slashed at it!
The ice blade whizzed toward the electric eel, and the surrounding river water broke apart. The temperature of the ice blade was too low, so it quickly condensed into a layer of crushed ice!
The electric eel's clone had been using the Electric Field skill to cover all directions around it.
Therefore, although this ice blade appeared suddenly, it was immediately captured by the electric eel clone.
Since he had been exposed, he had enough time to dodge such an attack.
The electric eel twisted its body and dodged the ice blade.
However, the ice blade just happened to hit the crab in front of the electric eel clone. The ice blade gently slashed, and the hard shell of the first-order crab shell was directly split into two halves. The cut was smooth and complete!
After the first attack missed, a low growl came from the mud in the riverbed.
The mud shook and the river water became turbid.
Amidst the chaos, a giant centipede that was nearly two to three meters long crawled out of the mud.
The giant centipede's body was grayish-black, but the sharp legs under its abdomen were ice-blue!
As the giant centipede moved, countless icy blue legs surged with coldness. Blue light flashed, and the surrounding river water was immediately frozen!
Chu Lingjun's pupils were constricted. This was a Level One exotic beast that could use the power of ice, the berserk centipede!"
The electric eel jumped and slashed straight at the centipede.
The berserk centipede did not dodge. Instead, an ice-blue light appeared on its body.
The lightning and ice collided, and a loud explosion instantly erupted in the river. The river water surged and formed circles of ripples!
However, when the smoke and dust dispersed and the body of the berserk centipede was revealed again, it was completely intact and did not suffer any damage!
Chu Lingjun's eyes darkened. He was fighting fire with fire!
