Thud.
A strange sound echoed in the pyramid. Lin followed the sound and walked to the wall in front of her.
The sound seemed to be coming from here … The spy knocked on the wall, and the thud sounded again.
There really is something inside … Lin was about to hit the wall when she suddenly heard footsteps. The spy turned around and saw five Emerald Dragons running in from the entrance, including Black Pepper.
"They're all dead!" Black Pepper and the others screamed when they saw the large number of emerald dragon corpses on the ground. They also noticed the spy who was about to knock on the wall. Black Pepper immediately asked the spy, "What's going on?"
"They've been killed," Lin replied simply, "by that standing scorpion on the ground."
"That's …" Black Pepper and the others noticed a strange standing scorpion with a scythe on the ground. Black Pepper immediately said to one of the emerald dragons, "I've never seen such a species before. We have to report this to the king! Also, call more dragons in. We have to deal with the corpses here! "
The emerald dragons had a fixed habit. They had to bury the corpses of their own species, regardless of their previous status.
"Yes!" The emerald dragon quickly ran out after hearing the order. Black Pepper said, "There should be many standing scorpions here. Where did they go?"
"I'm looking for them." Lin looked at the wall again and said, "Perhaps they're inside …" As she spoke, she raised her hand and knocked on the wall!
Crack! A crack appeared on the wall that was hit, and the crack quickly spread … However, Lin felt that something was off. The crack didn't seem to have been caused by the spy. It was just a crack that appeared when the spy hit the wall.
"Inside the wall?" Black Pepper and the others walked over. More and more cracks appeared on the wall. Suddenly, with a loud boom, a gigantic creature appeared from behind the cracked wall.
This was … a brain-created monster?
Lin looked at the three-meter-long creature behind the wall. Could it be that the standing scorpion was related to the brain-created monster? Or … Lin noticed that there was a room behind the brain-created monster, and it was filled with standing scorpions' corpses.
Did the brain-created monster kill the standing scorpions?
Before Lin could fully understand the situation, the brain-created monster suddenly opened its mouth and bit the spy's head.
'Whoosh!' Before the brain-created monster could exert any force, three spears stabbed into its face. It let go of its mouth with a cry of pain and fled into the room inside.
"What kind of monster is this?" Black Pepper and a few Emerald Dragons walked over. They were the ones who threw the spear.
The spy touched his neck, and after confirming that there were no wounds, he said to Black Pepper, "It's a brain-eating creature."
"A brain-eating creature?" Black Pepper was obviously surprised. Black Pepper did not seem to suspect the spy at all. Instead, he immediately said to the other Emerald Dragon, "Hurry up and report this to the King!"
"Yes!" As the Emerald Dragon ran out, many Emerald Dragons came in from the entrance. They were ordered by Black Pepper to clean up the corpses.
"Don't do that for now!" Black Pepper called out to the Emerald Dragons who were preparing to dispose of the corpses, "We've encountered a monster. Come and get rid of it first!"
Black Pepper led the Emerald Dragons closer to the cave on the wall. They were all regular guards, wearing high-quality leather armor and the latest weapons made of stone or bone. Although there shouldn't be any problems, Lin still followed them in.
"The corpses of the scorpions are all here …" The room was dark, but she could still see the scorpions' corpses. Some of them had their shells bitten off, while others had their heads missing. It was obvious that the brain-created monster had done this …
This situation was indeed strange. Why would the brain-created monster be in the pyramid? And what was with the scythe-wielding scorpion outside? Why was it alone outside? Why didn't it fight the brain-created monster?
The situation was indeed strange. According to Lin's speculation, the brain-created monster might have accidentally come in when the pyramid was empty. Later on, the scorpions hid in the pyramid because they were surrounded by the Emerald Dragons. One of the scorpions began to transform and grew a scythe. Perhaps it wanted to use the scythe to break free from the Emerald Dragons' siege.
Then, the rest of the scorpions hid in a deeper room and glued the wall together. But after they glued the wall together, they discovered that the brain-created monster was also in there. Hence, the current situation.
This was indeed a possibility. Because the scorpions were weakened by the smoke, the brain-created monster could easily kill them … But there were still many questions. They might have hidden in a deeper room and sealed the wall so that they would not be affected by the smoke. But why would they leave the scythe-wielding scorpions outside alone? However, the scythe-wielding scorpions did not die from the smoke. They even killed the Emerald Dragons that came in later.
The brain-created monster and the scorpions should both be species of the Atte tribe. Perhaps because their brains were dead, the brain-created monster and the scorpions could not communicate with each other.
Lin believed that there should be hundreds of scorpions in the pyramid, but there were too few in this room. There should be other rooms.
Walking past the pile of scorpions' corpses, Lin could see the brain-created monster curled up in a corner of the room. Blood flowed slowly down the spear in its head …
Including Black Pepper, there were a total of ten Emerald Dragons here. They spread out and surrounded the brain-created monster with spears in their hands.
"This monster killed all the scorpions here," Black Pepper said. "Be careful …"
When the brain-created monster saw the Emerald Dragons surrounding it, it immediately stood up. But the spear in its head made it feel a lot of pain.
Lin remembered that the brain-created monster once used its brainwave ability to kill an entire village of Skeletal Dragons. It did not seem to have any effect on the Emerald Dragons …
"Gah!" Suddenly, Black Pepper shouted. All the Emerald Dragons rushed forward. The brain-created monster's body was instantly pierced by several spears. With a loud scream, the brain-created monster fell to the ground.
"Is it done …" Black Pepper walked to the side of the brain-created monster and looked at it carefully. "I've never seen something like this before. I have to draw it."
"Ugh …" The moment Black Pepper finished speaking, the brain-created monster suddenly moved. It opened its mouth and bit at Black Pepper!
