122: Chapter 122 Boss [Primal Number One]

"Squeak, squeak, squeak!!!"

A sharp sound, resembling the shrieking of rats, occasionally echoed within this semi-karst-cave-like giant cavern.

[Writing up to here, I hope readers remember our domain name, reading good books from Taiwan is super worry-free]

Chu Hong walked into the cave.

Looking at the randomly placed wooden boxes scattered everywhere, or the cargo bearing the logo of the Palino Bio-Group, the corner of Chu Hong's eye twitched fiercely.

However, compared to being speechless at Vincent, the "plot character".

At this moment, Chu Hong's heart was filled more with disgust toward the nearly omnipresent monkeys in his perception.

Clearly, judging from their combat style and use of weapons like firearms, these fellows were already quite close to the level of humans.

Furthermore, being able to stand off against the Palino Bio-Group for so long even forced the Palino Bio-Group to spare no expense and spend huge amounts of funds to research those robots.

To say that the monkeys in this Monkey Village had already possessed a primary civilization would be no exaggeration at all.

But... the omnipresent excrement, and the disgusting scenes of "indulgent revelry" within his perception,

filled Chu Hong's heart with dissatisfaction regarding the quantity of [Biological Neurotoxin Outbreak Devices] in his backpack.

This NPC simply looked down on the strength of yours truly, Chu!

With defenses like this that leaked from all sides and had loopholes everywhere, allowing him to easily sneak into the core area without a single monkey noticing, I'm afraid that if he were to "install C4," these macaques wouldn't even know at which point the "bomb" was installed.

Chu Hong was cautious all the way, but his speed was not slow.

Inside the cave, passages crisscrossed and gullies were numerous, but the vast majority were dead ends or stone chambers used to store cargo.

And the closer he got to the core, the more cautious Chu Hong's actions became.

There were only about six minutes left before getting lost.

And the mission still required him to hold out for 3 minutes.

Chu Hong no longer held any expectations for completing the mission.

As a giant "black hole zone" appeared deep within the cave in the perception of the [cobweb brain-computer interface], Chu Hong's footsteps paused slightly.

Clearly, the sound of what seemed to be a giant beast sleeping and breathing passed clearly through the passage into his ears.

And that "black hole zone," which obviously also blocked his perception, was precisely the mission waypoint where Chu Hong needed to plant "C4."

Is it a Boss room?

It was something one could figure out with their toes, yet it didn't cause Chu Hong to feel even a shred of fear.

Operating almost at the limit of the visual blind spot, Chu Hong silently passed through the patrol route of a team of patrolling ape-men and finally officially entered the core of the [Monkey Village].

In a huge karst cave whose dome seemed to be covered by a layer of moss and creeper vines.

On the huge natural stone bed right in the middle,

lay an ancient giant ape whose size was comparable to the super gorilla in a certain movie from his past life.

[Lord of the Ape Clan: Codename Primitive One]

"Hoo... hoo..."

Chu Hong's appearance did not cause the slightest commotion; surprisingly, the boss was still in a dormant state, and it was at this moment that Chu Hong clearly saw the appearance on its body.

Terrifying scars crisscrossed its body, resembling giant, gruesome centipedes entwined everywhere on it.

One could tell there were traces of artificial stitching.

But Chu Hong's gaze was more concentrated on an emerald-green light source hidden among a large patch of creeper vines above the dome.

There was obviously a tiny, light-transmitting hole above this cave.

The light passed through the gap and through the emerald-green gemstone on the dome, shining the greenish light onto [Primitive One] on the stone platform below at this moment.

That refracted green light clearly carried a certain power that could enhance life energy.

This couldn't help but make Chu Hong's heart burn with enthusiasm.

What a good thing!

This is definitely a collectible of red quality!

Walking on tiptoe, he quietly crept to a corner of the karst cave. Chu Hong immediately took out a huge half-person-tall metal canister from his backpack, and put on the gas mask and protective suit provided by Cliff Yang.

"Beep, beep, beep..."

The moment he completed the unlocking on the operation panel of the poison gas canister,

"Hisss!!!"

A violent release of gas, accompanied by a faint buzzing sound of current, immediately emanated from the poison gas canister.

And at that very instant,

Chu Hong was almost knocked to the ground by the poisonous gas airflow spewed out by the poison gas canister.

"Holy shit! Such great force?!"

The terrifying gas-spraying pressure instantly whipped up a surging and fierce poison gas hurricane within this karst cave. The huge commotion immediately caused the snoring of the King Kong boss sleeping soundly on the platform to stop, and at the same time,

it instantly attracted the mutated monkeys patrolling outside at this moment.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak!"

The sharp monkey shrieks carried obvious shock and anger.

Yet Chu Hong immediately activated his superpower [Slaughter Overlord] at the very first moment.

"Let the flowers come!!!"

With a violent shout,

the short blade [source blade] in Chu Hong's hand stirred up a crimson cutting edge.

An iron-arm orangutan, whose arms were still wrapped in steel guards, that rushed in first only saw a lingering shadow flash past between them in its haste.

Following closely behind,

a smooth cutting line was instantly carved onto its thick neck.

Fresh blood spurted out.

Under the forced extraction of Chu Hong's superpower, a surge of red energy transformed into two clusters of light, instantly pouring into Chu Hong's body.

"Die! Die for your lord!"

"Da, da, da..."

"Splat, splat!"

Intense gunshots rang out; however, far more terrifying than these bullets was Chu Hong's horrifying speed, which resembled a crimson grim reaper—after all, this was merely an ordinary-grade secret realm.

Dealing with these fellows now, Chu Hong could truly, without any exaggeration, handle them with effortless ease.

However,

"Roar——!"

along with a deafening roar that shook the walls of the cave, carrying a strong sonic wave that poured into Chu Hong's brain at that instant,

even Chu Hong, who was at the sixth stage of the Qiyuan Realm and still under the activated state of his superpower,

couldn't help but suddenly stiffen the action of hacking at monkey heads in his hand.

"Boom!"

Amidst the terrifying sonic boom sound that felt like a meteorite blasting right in his face,

Chu Hong flew backwards.

The terrifying force almost directly smashed [Ke Xiaoken], who had instantly saved Chu Hong, into a pool of cyan-blue minced meat mucus.

It turned into a cluster of red light points and disappeared on the spot.

On the light curtain in front of him, the time for the benchmark mission was rapidly ticking.

[Benchmark Mission: Human Supremacy]

[Please continue to hold the mission objective: Palino Bio-Group Neurotoxin Outbreak Device]

[Current Remaining Time: 02:04]

Only one minute had passed.

However, looking at the terrifying giant ape standing up from the stone platform, Chu Hong—who still had little Jin in the [source energy space] with a net profit of 100k source energy points—responded with nothing but a cold, provocative sneer.

"Oi~"

"Did any of these subordinates of yours tell you... today's lunch is quite smooth?"
