171: The deception of the Mist God! The Pollution Worm Ram!
"Fuck! Ah!"
Inside the sphere of pollution, Chris was the first to undergo mutation.
Although he was continuously using a large number of Pollution Orbs to collect the pollution.
Yet, as this power of pollution surged into the Pollution Orbs, it simultaneously eroded Chris.
In just a few seconds.
Chris had actually transformed into a ball of flesh covered in eye tumors.
[Buzz!]
[Alliance member Chris has unfortunately lost consciousness and mutated into a monster!]
[Chris is hereby pronounced dead!]
At the same time, a hoarse and magnificent voice echoed throughout this Dungeon space.
Crash!
Su Lie heard a violent tremor and the sound of joints twisting; he couldn't help but look toward Chris.
He saw.
Outside the sphere of pollution where Chris was located, a massive head appeared.
The head was dozens of times larger than the sphere of pollution, resembling a small mountain.
Its eyes carried a flicker of yellow fire.
Crash!
A massive, sharp-toothed mouth opened in the darkness, and Chris, along with the sphere of pollution he was in, instantly shrank into a "candy bean" sized sphere and was directly eaten by the huge monster.
Whoosh!
Following this, the sound of wind arose.
The monster disappeared into the darkness once more.
"Is this the Pollution Worm?"
Seeing this, Su Lie's gaze narrowed slightly.
This feeling was different from the pressure the Moon Serpent had exerted on him.
He hadn't even sensed any danger.
"Did the sphere of pollution block my perception, or did the power of pollution obscure my senses?"
Su Lie pondered in confusion.
He stood safely within the pollution.
This pollution was like Mist, only with a slight fishy smell added to the air, yet it was still breathable.
King Persimmon, who had been constantly observing Su Lie, suddenly cried out in shock: "Damn! Why? Why are you completely fine? This is impossible! This is impossible!..."
He seemed to have gone mad.
This brought Eagle and Gu Yina, who had been staring blankly into the darkness, back to their senses.
When the two women turned their heads to look at Su Lie, they also trembled.
Although they currently possessed their own abilities to resist the pollution, their hands and feet had already begun to mutate.
Furthermore, the power of pollution was slowly but forcefully prying apart their own strength.
Only one of King Persimmon's fingers had mutated, turning into a pus-oozing Pollution Serpent.
The eye on his brow was absorbing most of the power of pollution for him.
Looking from the outside.
One could see a powerful suction force generated from his brow, pulling streams of Mist into the vertical eye.
Su Lie glanced indifferently at the people, then returned to deep thought.
Seeing Su Lie remain silent, King Persimmon gritted his teeth and said: "Su Lie! How about I exchange information about the Sequence with you?"
"Alright!"
Su Lie nodded, finally looking at King Persimmon.
Gu Yina and Eagle immediately pricked up their ears, listening intently.
King Persimmon said solemnly: "You must first tell me how you are resisting the pollution!"
"You speak first!"
Su Lie replied decisively.
King Persimmon glared: "Do you still want to know the information about the Sequence?"
"You are the one asking me! Either you speak first, or forget it!"
Su Lie shook his head, speaking very casually.
He took the Eye of Identification out of his storage pouch.
King Persimmon trembled with rage. After a few seconds of silence, he finally said: "Fine! The Sequence is similar to the tiers we know. The Sequence ranks from lowest to highest, from Ninth to First. The higher the Sequence, the higher the tier, and the greater the authority you possess in the Mist World!"
"We Survivors belong to the lowest-grade food source outside of the Sequence!"
"No! I should say that Survivors with professions are the lowest-grade food source; Survivors without professions are trash!"
"Only when we reach the Second Turn do we have a chance to cross the class divide and become the lowest Sequence!"
"Done! It's your turn now!"
He stopped at the crucial moment.
This left Su Lie wanting more, but it was enough for him to make many inferences.
King Persimmon waited for a moment, seeing that Su Lie wasn't speaking.
He immediately became angry: "Su Lie! You fucking have no credibility! Say something!"
"My apologies! I accidentally let you know my nickname! How embarrassing!"
Su Lie responded politely.
Combining King Persimmon's information with the Mist incidents he had personally experienced.
Su Lie received accurate news.
That is, the level for the Second Turn should be between level 30 and level 50.
If achieving the Sequence was only possible during the Second Turn.
Then the Mountain God he had encountered earlier should belong to the Ninth Sequence.
That entity had become the Mountain God by sacrificing a Survivor in the previous Survivor cycle.
Although the Nanny of the Mist Phoenix Clan was high-level, she did not possess divine authority.
Therefore, it did not belong to the Sequence.
This indicated that to achieve class transcendence and enter the Sequence tier.
Simply having a high enough level was not sufficient to become part of the Sequence.
Thinking of this.
Su Lie looked again at the Eye of Identification in his hand.
The Eye of Identification took a full two or three minutes before it finally managed to read the information of the sphere of pollution.
[sphere of pollution (Alias): golden legend quality; a pollution bubble spat out by the Pollution Worm Ram, used by Ram to collect the power of pollution and stockpile food.
Special Effect Immortality: The sphere of pollution will never be damaged permanently.
Special Effect True Name Teleportation: Ram can use the prey's true name to teleport the prey from any area into the sphere of pollution, and can also release the prey back to its original location.
Special Effect Dream Rules: Ram needs to provide certain feeding rules in order to consume through the sphere of pollution, otherwise it cannot devour that sphere of pollution.
Note: The Pollution Worm Ram is also known as the God of Dream Bubbles, controlling the divine authority of bubbles.
Note: The Pollution Worm Ram is skilled at weaving dreams.]
"Hiss! Is this not the Dungeon created by the Supreme Being, as King Persimmon claimed, but rather an illusion woven by his designated Death Ritual God using dreams? And what is this 'Alliance' all about?"
Seeing this, Su Lie couldn't help but take a sharp breath.
He realized that things might not be as simple as King Persimmon had described.
If this was a Dungeon created by the Supreme Being, would the Pollution Worm Ram be allowed to feed here?
But if this was a fake Dungeon set up by the Pollution Worm Ram, then what was the deal with the Alliance?
Was this one of Ram's abilities?
Just then.
Another five minutes passed.
This time, the power of pollution pouring in was even thicker.
The sphere of pollution Su Lie was in was almost turning into a "smoke sphere."
Gu Yina's arm had mutated into countless root tendrils; she gritted her teeth, took a waterskin from her waist, and poured Exorcism Holy Water onto the mutated arm.
In an instant.
Intense, foul-smelling acidic Mist and large bubbles rose from her arm.
The mutated arm also recovered at a visible rate.
Eagle was resisting the corrosion using a certain type of mark, but as time went on, her head suddenly swelled to twice its size.
"No! I'd rather die than turn into a monster!"
She screamed shrilly.
She took a hand grenade out of her storage pouch.
Crash!
After pulling the pin and the fuse.
She shoved the grenade into her mouth.
Bang!
Three seconds later, a violent explosion sounded from the sphere of pollution where Eagle was located.
Amidst a flash of fire.
Eagle's head shattered onto the ground.
Under the effect of the power of pollution, her body turned into a puddle of unconscious, yet self-wriggling, fleshy sludge.
At this moment, a prompt appeared again.
[Buzz!]
[Alliance member Eagle committed suicide, died, and mutated into a monster!]
Crash!
The Pollution Worm reappeared.
This time, its eyes carried a hint of rage.
Just as the Pollution Worm was about to swallow the sphere of pollution where Eagle was.
Su Lie silently took out a scale of the Moon Serpent.
He was testing the reality of the situation here.
If this was a Dungeon created by the Supreme Being, then this Dungeon would definitely be a tug-of-war.
The Supreme Being would certainly find a way to let his believer, King Persimmon, win.
And then have King Persimmon bring other people over for sacrifice.
If this place was controlled by the Pollution Worm Ram.
Then.
Upon seeing the Moon Serpent's scale, Ram would certainly be wary of the Moon Serpent's power, thereby allowing Su Lie to win easily.
Thinking of this.
Su Lie looked up toward the front.
He saw the Pollution Worm, which was opening its mouth to swallow the sphere of pollution, pause slightly.
It looked sideways at Su Lie, its gaze landing on the Moon Serpent scale in Su Lie's hand.
Three seconds later.
Whoosh!
The Pollution Worm retreated into the darkness.
"Ah!"
At this moment, King Persimmon let out a painful wail.
He suddenly knelt on the ground, violently slamming his head against the floor.
His body underwent a tremendous change at this time.
In the blink of an eye, he mutated into a bloated mountain of flesh, with countless human hands and eyes distorting out of his entire body.
Moreover, the vertical eye on his brow became the sole large eye of this bloated monster, occupying one-third of its body area.
"Why? Why..."
King Persimmon's heartbreaking voice rang out.
Before he could finish speaking.
Another prompt leaped into the view of Su Lie and Gu Yina...
