Apocalypse: Master of Soul Beasts

Chapter 300: Chapter 90: Race Background!_1

Everything happening in the Demon City naturally couldn’t escape the military’s surveillance.

Seeing the fog rising slowly in the Demon City, Wen Yu immediately reached for his walkie-talkie and asked, ”Do we have any countermeasures?”

”What countermeasures could we possibly have...” replied Kuangliu in a slightly flippant tone.

”Haven’t we sent anyone in for a look?”

”Would you go?”

It finally dawned on Wen Yu that the strong couldn’t get out if they went in, while the weak couldn’t even reach the edge of the Demon City.

”Drones tried to go in but were shot down from a great distance, and we can’t see anything from the outside. But it doesn’t matter. A large number of Demon Fiends are pouring out from the Demon City now, and our training plan is about to begin. Wen Yu, take good care of things on your end...”

”Especially Xiao Xue, don’t let her die...”

”By the way, Xiao Xue isn’t your little sweetheart, is she?”

On the other end, Kuangliu fell silent for a long moment before finally spitting out, ”GET LOST!!!”

After his banter with Kuangliu, Star suddenly picked up speed.

Since the Demon Fiends in the Demon City had exited the protective barrier’s range as predicted, these points were destined to be harvested by me!

As for the fact that the Devil Qi Matrix—in other words, the Demon Qi Shield Generator—had been shut down, the military was completely oblivious.

Intelligence from the front line indicated that the Bipedal Lizards pouring out of the Demon City were behaving as predicted by the Tactical Command Department. As soon as they exited the city, they immediately dispersed. They broke into dozens or even hundreds of small teams, each separated by a considerable distance, and rapidly crawled towards the frontier post.

Regarding the absence of high-level Demon Fiends among the creatures crawling out, the military had an explanation. They speculated that the leader controlling these Demon Fiends in the Demon City might be trying to gather all high-level fiends. The purpose would be to launch a devastating wave attack directly on the frontier post, with their assembly point hidden within the fog!

Kuangliu even joked that this would finally give the military’s nuclear weapons a chance to be used.

Wen Yu offered no opinion on the matter, as he couldn’t figure out the reason either.

As Star flew faster and faster, Wen Yu soon spotted Bipedal Lizards ahead, crawling at a considerable speed.

”Kill them!”

At Wen Yu’s command, Star dove straight down, plummeting towards the ground like a meteor, then unleashed its Dragon Flame.

Battle over.

On the ground, Star and Cyclops were feasting.

Nearly a hundred Bipedal Lizards were more than enough to fill their bellies. Since there were no Level 4 Demon Fiends among them, Wen Yu only instructed his two soul pets to retrieve half of the Third-level magic crystals for him, not asking about the remainder.

The other magic crystals were considered a bonus for the two soul pets.

At this moment, Wen Yu was examining the corpse of a Third-level Bipedal Lizard on the ground.

Observing it up close, Wen Yu had to admit that the moniker ’Bipedal Lizard’ was indeed fitting.

Its greyish-white skin was slippery and still covered with some disgusting mucus. Two stout legs were clearly enough to support its entire body weight.

The sharp claws on their feet mean these Bipedal Lizards must be experts at burrowing!

Wen Yu suppressed his disgust at the stench and forcibly pried open the Bipedal Lizard’s large mouth.

The sharp teeth in its mouth were arranged in a serrated pattern. He then felt their sharpness with his finger.

It didn’t feel like much at first, but when I applied a little pressure, I could feel a slight sting on my finger!

Quite sharp!

He then looked at the Bipedal Lizard’s tongue.

The tongue was long, robust, and very elastic. It took considerable effort for Wen Yu to tear it.

By my calculations, even a Professionist with 200 physique points would find it difficult to break free from this tongue by brute force alone if they were entangled by it.

Furthermore, the Bipedal Lizard’s tail was equally formidable. A round, bony cudgel grew at its tip, resembling a hammerhead.

Judging by the length and sturdiness of the Bipedal Lizard’s tail, its lethality would definitely be significant if it started swinging it!

”A ferocious combat species!” Wen Yu mentally categorized the Bipedal Lizards.

Then, Wen Yu tore a piece of flesh from the Bipedal Lizard and summoned Faceless.

Wen Yu truly coveted such a species, where possessing a single individual was tantamount to commanding an entire army!

After Faceless devoured the Bipedal Lizard’s flesh and blood, it rapidly morphed. Within moments, it had transformed into a Bipedal Lizard.

Wen Yu understood; it seemed this creature didn’t qualify as a special species.

However, before Wen Yu could examine the Bipedal Lizard’s skills in detail, an eerie Spiritual Fluctuation transmitted directly from the Demon City, swiftly penetrating Faceless’s body.

Wen Yu was immediately taken aback. Before he could react, the 4th Soul Realm in his mind instantly fluctuated, swiftly shattering the intruding consciousness.

The change occurred so suddenly that by the time Wen Yu came to his senses, everything had already returned to calm.

Wen Yu fell silent for a long moment, a flash of realization in his eyes. ”So, something is controlling you creatures!” he exclaimed.

In the distant Demon City, the demon spawn suddenly opened its eyes.

The moment the power from Wen Yu’s 4th Soul Realm had shattered that Spiritual Fluctuation, the demon spawn had already discerned the cause of the matter.

It stared intently in Wen Yu’s direction for a long time, then its lips curled slightly. ”Thinking you can control the Balu Monsters? How naive...”

**Fission Reproduction (Species-specific Esoteric Level, Incomplete, Passive Skill) (Fission Body Skill):** Devour flesh and blood, digest the energy within, then rapidly split off a kindred life form one level lower than the host from its own body. The life form thus created also possesses the Fission Reproduction ability. Individuals created by this skill will not gain any abilities other than Fission Reproduction!

A single individual can give rise to an entire race!

Looking at the sole skill Faceless possessed, Wen Yu instantly furrowed his brows.

Previously, Wen Yu hadn’t known whether the Bipedal Lizards’ terrifying reproductive capability was an inherent trait or a skill. Now, however, it was clearly an Esoteric Level ability.

This ability alone could give rise to a terrifying race.

As for the words ’Incomplete’ and ’Fission Body Skill,’ by my understanding, it means the Fission Reproduction skill effect of a fission body is different from the original’s. The complete version of Fission Reproduction must be even more terrifying!

Looked at this way, the so-called Bipedal Lizards are a race that was literally ’eaten’ into existence by a single creature!

Then, Wen Yu also thought about the Bipedal Lizards’ burrowing ability.

Clearly, this burrowing ability is the Bipedal Lizards’ species innate talent—you could also call it instinct or their inherent nature!
