Book of Disaster

Chapter 638: Dense and Creepy Eye Rolling

As for the members of the hunting team, I don’t know if it’s because they have been stationed near the new world for a long time and practiced here, but although their strength has been weakened, the extent of the weakening is not as great as that of everyone else.

Moving forward, Bai Qi soon turned his attention to the new world itself.

As we went deeper, the whole world became darker and darker.

Bai Qi looked around carefully. The entire new world, or now it should be called the outer layer of the Cthulhu world, the entire landscape presented an ancient and desolate appearance.

There is no life here, and no green plants can be seen on the ground.

Bai Qi's eyes swept around. The ground was undulating, with sand dunes everywhere. Dangerous winds were howling in the sky. Huge stones and rocks were scattered on the ground, many of which had been eroded by time beyond recognition.

Looking from a distance, in this dim environment, they look ferocious and tall, like monsters.

There was no vegetation in the entire world. As he moved forward, Bai Qi only occasionally saw some withered bushes.

It is gloomy here all year round, with almost no light penetrating. Bai Qi looked up but did not see any trace of the sun, moon, or stars.

"rustle!"

At this moment, a subtle sound suddenly came into my ears.

In an instant, everyone immediately showed a look of vigilance, and some soldiers in the hunting team even drew their swords.

Only Bai Qi remained calm.

His perception is much stronger than everyone else.

In just a moment, with the help of the faint light, everyone saw a huge sand scorpion, which was completely black, with two forked tails, as big as a millstone, suddenly passing by a rock not far away.

It seemed that the movement of the crowd attracted the attention of the sand scorpion. He suddenly stopped and looked in the direction of the crowd, giving people a very human feeling.

But it was only for a moment, and with a rustling sound, it quickly crawled away and disappeared into the thick black fog of the new world.

"Is this... a scorpion?"

Bai Qi frowned and suddenly spoke.

"Ah."

The one who answered was Hao Qianyu who was standing by. He nodded and watched the sand scorpion go away:

"The place we are in now belongs to the outermost part of the new world, the fringe area. This was an island before, but the new world swallowed it up. Some sand scorpions and other plants and animals that originally belonged to this place were also swallowed up and entered the new world."

"After entering here, many creatures actually died, but some survived and just mutated. The scorpion we just saw was one of them. But they are not considered creatures from the New World. As long as they don't actively attack, they are not a big threat."

He and his teammates often enter new worlds, so they naturally encounter these things frequently.

Everyone nodded, feeling much more relaxed, and continued to move forward.

At this moment, Zhang Chi patted the alien falcon on his shoulder. The latter responded, and suddenly let out a sharp cry, flapped its wings, suddenly soared into the air, and quickly disappeared in the dense dark clouds that covered the sky of the new world.

The place was filled with an atmosphere of madness and chaos, but for some reason, Zhang Chi's alien falcon didn't seem to be greatly affected.

A scream soon came from a distance.

It has flown far away.

Bai Qi nodded imperceptibly.

In this Cthulhu world, all the laws and rules of heaven and earth are completely different from those in the human world. The falcon trained by Zhang Chi can fly very far and can also serve as a warning, discovering some dangers that sometimes cannot be discovered in advance.

The crowd continued to move forward.

The deeper you go, the darker and colder the world becomes. The atmosphere of chaos and madness becomes stronger, and even the void is filled with an indescribable smell.

Looking at the strange things around him, Bai Qi couldn't help but feel a sense of uneasiness in his heart.

This is his instinctive intuition as a martial saint.

"Something is wrong here, everyone be careful."

Bai Qi secretly reminded Xu Xuansu and Zhang Chi through his mental power.

"Ah."

Xu Xuansu and Zhang Chi nodded secretly.

And almost at this time——

"Wow!"

Just above the crowd, a sharp scream suddenly came, so loud that it instantly attracted everyone's attention.

"It's Xiao Jin!"

Zhang Chi's expression changed slightly, he recognized it instantly, and said hurriedly:

"It seems to have discovered something and is warning us!"

"what?!"

Everyone's expressions changed.

Affected by the rules of the new world, everyone's perception and mental strength have been greatly weakened. To some extent, Xiao Jin's vigilance is much higher than everyone else.

"Boom!"

Almost at the same time, the ground beneath their feet shook and cracked. Without any warning, an extremely chaotic and powerful energy wave suddenly erupted from the ground. The enormous force directly blew everyone away.

Not only that, just below the cracked ground, huge, hard black shadows, like steel, suddenly broke through the air from underground and swept towards the chaotic crowd at incredible speed.

"what!"

A member of the demon hunting team was caught off guard and his armor was pierced directly by a black shadow. He immediately vomited black blood and died.

Seeing this scene, everyone's expression changed suddenly.

The strongest members of the Demon Hunting Team are all martial masters, and the armor they wear is specially made with a large number of defensive arrays inside, making it extremely strong. Even precious swords cannot easily cut it.

No one expected that after just a brief encounter, a member of the Demon Hunting Team would have his armor easily pierced through and die on the spot.

For a moment, a strong smell of death and danger spread immediately.

However, Hao Qianyu and others were elite soldiers who had been stationed in the New World for a long time, experienced in battles, and well-trained. In just a moment, they reacted immediately.

"Enemy attack, be careful!"

Hao Qianyu shouted loudly, and then with a loud bang, he immediately opened the sanctuary, and forced all the demon hunting team members to retreat together.

Whether intentional or unintentional, their retreat instantly made Bai Qi, Xu Xuansu and Zhang Chi the target of public criticism.

"Shhhhhh!"

All of a sudden, the dense, steel-like black shadows underground immediately shot towards the three people.

The first person to be attacked was Bai Qi.

"Hmph, looking for death!"

Bai Qi's eyes turned cold, and he immediately activated his internal energy and slapped out with his palm.

However, at this moment, something strange happened——

"Buzz!"

Just on that long, steel-like black shadow, a white eye suddenly opened, followed by the second, the third... so densely packed and extremely creepy.
