Crack.
The crystallized rock slowly cracked open …
The Blood Mist stood in front of the rock.
It had chased the Elder all the way here, but because the Elder had run into the cave, it could not continue the chase. However, it had found this strange rock.
As more and more cracks appeared on the rock, the Blood Mist saw a creature writhing inside the rock.
"Is this some kind of creature's … egg?" While the Blood Mist was puzzled, the crack in the middle of the rock grew bigger and bigger. Finally, it split into two pieces.
In the middle, a soft, white … caterpillar-like creature crawled out.
"Is this the larva of some kind of creature?"
The Blood Mist watched the worm slowly move on the ground and could not help but take a few steps back. The worm was about one meter long and looked soft and powerless. However, the Blood Mist felt a little scared …
However, the worm ignored the Blood Mist. It crawled past the Blood Mist and slowly crawled to the corner behind the Blood Mist, which was the cave the Elder had entered.
The Blood Mist did not stop it. It watched as the larva slowly crawled into the cave. After about ten seconds, there was a sound in the cave … It sounded like a scream.
Then, the Blood Mist saw a familiar figure run out of the cave. It was the Elder.
The Elder screamed in horror as he ran. Unfortunately, the blood fog could not understand his language. However, the moment he saw the blood fog, he immediately shouted in the Emerald Dragon language, "You actually dare to block here and put something in to scare me? I'm going to dig your heart out of that green chest and offer it to myself! "
After that, it did not move. Then, it continued, "If you don't want to end up like this, hurry up and work with me to crawl out of here. Otherwise, it will be very tragic!"
The Blood Mist did not know what to say. However, it was curious how the larva could chase the Elder out.
"Since you say that …" The Blood Mist thought about it. It did not make much sense to keep chasing the Elder. It was better to communicate with it. Perhaps it would find something useful.
"Since you asked such a question … Then listen to me. I have a perfect plan to crawl out of here. You just need to pretend to be a piece of meat!" the Elder said. "A piece of rotten meat."
"Huh?" The Blood Mist was confused. "How? Don't tell me you want me to die? "
"Hehehe … You don't need to die for this. Can you only think of death? What a stupid … uncreative creature. " The elder said, "All you need to do is smear something that emits a rotten smell all over your body and lie down in the center of the rift valley. Then, creatures will fly down from the sky. When that happens, we will leave on the flying creatures!"
"Where is the thing that gave off the rotten smell?" Xue Wu asked.
"I found it in the cave just now." The elder said, "Now go and take it out for me. Then smear it all over your body! "
"Go and take it out." Blood Mist said, "That hole is too small. Only you can fit in. Also, why did you escape just now? Are you scared by that larva? "
"It wants to bite me." The elder said, "Don't you know? It … wants to bite me! I will never take the risk to go in there again! "
"… Then, is there no danger for you if you stay outside?" Blood Mist asked, taking a step forward.
"… I will control the fear you bring to me!" After the elder said that, he went back into the cave.
The blood mist waited outside. The cave was pitch black, and there was no sound at all. About sixty seconds later, the elder crawled out of the cave.
"That's it?" Blood Mist saw that the elder was holding some crystal pieces. Blood Mist thought that the elder would drag out some rotten meat or something. He did not expect it to be these crystals.
However … These crystals did emit a very strong smell. The smell made Blood Mist feel very uncomfortable. Moreover, there were many small insects called flies surrounding them.
"Now, take these and lie down in the center of the rift valley!" The elder threw a pile of crystals on the ground and said, "Hurry up, don't move slowly."
"Why are they crystals?" Blood Mist was puzzled. "And why are they so … smelly?"
"What nonsense are you talking about!" The elder said, "Can't crystals be smelly? There's nothing strange about crystals being smelly, right? But these crystals weren't crystals in the first place. They're just rotten remains. I think they belonged to a creature that got lost in the rift. That creature was too pitiful and didn't choose to work with a smart scorpion like me … "
"Alright, back to the rotten remains. After that strange larva got into the cave, it turned into crystals. It crystallized the wreckage, just like what you see now! How is it? Is this an answer that satisfies you? If it is, don't be so slow. Hurry up and act! " The elder said, "Now is the time when that creature comes out to hunt. If it's too late, no one will care about you even if you make yourself smellier than a real corpse!"
"… Then go and act as a corpse." Blood Mist said, "Since you know so much, then go and act as a corpse. You're the most suitable one. "
"Stupid dragon!" The elder shouted, "The condition to attract it is to have a green corpse full of rotten stench. In other words … it likes to eat emerald dragons and not normal scorpions. Do you understand?"
"…" Blood Mist felt that he really wanted to kill it.
However, Blood Mist did not do that. Instead, he continued to ask, "Then, what is this creature you're talking about?"
"It is known as the monster of the rift valley, the guardian of shiny things. The nemesis of poachers. It is … the god of the rift … "
Before the elder could finish, Blood Mist heard a sound. It sounded like something was crying. Its voice was so loud that even the bottom of the rift valley could hear it clearly.
"It's already here! Hurry up and move your green body, transform yourself into your most delicious form and attract it down! This is your only chance! Hurry up! " Under the elder's urging, Blood Mist took the crystals with a strong stench from the elder with a puzzled expression.
After taking a closer look, Blood Mist realized that it was indeed a piece of rotten flesh. It was just that there was a layer of crystals on the outside. However, it did not cover the stench … How did the larva do it? Blood Mist was very curious.
However, Blood Mist also wanted to leave, so it decided to 'cooperate' with the elder.
Then, under the elder's guidance, Blood Mist walked to the center of the rift valley. This was also the most spacious place in the rift valley. The creature above might be able to descend from here.
Blood Mist placed the crystals beside him and lay on the ground. Meanwhile, the elder ran to hide behind a rock 10 meters away from Blood Mist.
"Very good, that's it! When you are eaten … or caught by it, it will bring you out. Then, it will bring you to its nest. You can escape at that time! That way, you'll be able to leave safely. I'll approach it when it takes off and secretly grab its tail to fly out. Then, you won't have to worry about me, "the elder shouted from behind the rock. Blood Mist did not think that this plan was good.
However, it also had its own ideas.
Crack … Some small rocks fell from the sky and landed beside the blood mist.
Blood Mist noticed that the sunlight at the top of the rift valley was blocked by a huge figure. It seemed that there was a huge flying creature at the entrance looking down.
After looking for a while, it flew down quickly. Blood Mist quickly saw the figure of the creature clearly …
… It was a flying dragon.
This flying dragon had a wingspan of more than 17 meters. Its entire body was covered in shining scales. It descended from the sky and landed beside Blood Mist.
In Dreamscape, Blood Mist had seen many flying dragons, but it had never seen one in the real world. However, it had heard many stories of its ancestors riding on flying dragons to fight.
To them, this creature was closer to a legend.
However, this time, it was so close to the flying dragon. Blood Mist did not dare to move at all. It tried its best not to make any movements so that the flying dragon would think that it was dead.
"Humph, humph, humph … Truly too foolish." That elder knew very well that it was impossible.
Flying dragons were very intelligent. They would not be unable to differentiate between dead and alive. If it was dead, it would directly take the corpse away. However, if it was alive … the flying dragon would kill it first before taking it away.
The elder recognized this flying dragon. It would occasionally fly in the rift valley. It liked to catch emerald dragons, especially those with shining crystals. Usually, the emerald dragons that had collected a large number of crystals and were carrying them back were the easiest to attack.
The reason why it flew down was not because of the smell of rotten meat. Instead, it was because of the shining crystals that attracted it. Moreover, with the emerald dragon here, it would be attracted to come down.
Under normal circumstances, the emerald dragon would escape to a narrow part of the rift valley. That way, the flying dragon would not be able to attack it. However, it was in the most spacious part of the rift valley and was lying motionless on the ground … This meant that it could not escape at all!
It would be great if it could get rid of the emerald dragon and leave at the same time!
After thinking about it, the elder climbed out from behind the rock. It quickly approached the flying dragon's back, preparing to grab its tail and leave with it.
Whoosh!
However, at that moment, a flying crystal interrupted the elder's plan. It felt that its head was hit by the crystal, causing it to take a few steps back in pain.
"How dare you hit me? Do you want to die … "
The elder was about to shout angrily when it saw the flying dragon suddenly spread its wings. Its front claws grabbed the blood mist and flew into the sky.
"Wait! Don't run! " The elder did not have the time to think about why the flying dragon did not eat the emerald dragon. It immediately ran wildly and jumped with force, grabbing the flying dragon's tail …
