"Let's go!"
An old office building collapsed and shattered, exploding into countless pieces of reinforced concrete that splashed in all directions.
In the gap, Chung Shen-soo threw a grappling hook and landed on the surface of another tall building. He flew off the ground and avoided a large number of falling stones.
Zola held Rachel in one hand and Jozu in the other. She exerted strength in her legs and moved flexibly among the many stones.
Both of their targets were the river where the Broken Bridge was located.
As long as they crossed the river, they could at least get rid of the chase of the dependent monsters on this side!
In Zola's opinion, she was a mutated warrior and had great strength, so she could carry two people.
On the other hand, Li Wei was just a laborer. He could barely use the 3D Maneuver Gear without practice, which was already very impressive. Carrying another person would only put both of them in a desperate situation, so she had to bear the burden herself.
In a way, she was a good person.
Chung Shen-soo secretly evaluated. Looking at Zola passing by an old residential building, he couldn't help but shout, "Be careful …"
Stab!
From the darkness of the corridor, from countless windows, countless scarlet tongues stretched out and nimbly swept toward Zola.
"Catch!"
Zola threw Rachel to Chung Shen-soo, turned over, took out a pistol, aimed at the tongues, and fired.
Bang bang!
She broke many tongues. They fell to the ground, and disgusting yellow pus flowed out of the broken mouth.
However, Zola's ankle was still wrapped by a tongue, and her whole body was dragged into the residential building in an instant.
Just as Chung Shen-soo was about to rush in to save her, he saw a wall collapse. Zola rushed out again, but Jozu was nowhere to be seen.
"Let's go …"
Zola said without the slightest expression on her face.
Chung Shen-soo nodded. The two ran together for a distance and saw the wide river.
Zola didn't hesitate and plunged into the river with Chung Shen-soo.
Countless creatures that looked like worms and water snakes quickly escaped, forming two areas in the air.
Chung Shen-soo swam for a long distance before he surfaced and looked at the monsters on the shore.
Some of them had two heads and four arms, each of which was deformed to a certain extent. They were giant apes with sarcomas all over their bodies. Some of them looked like a hill made up of countless beetles. They looked like a whole body, but they also looked like monsters that could split at any time.
There were also strange monsters lurking in the black fog with countless scarlet tongues sticking out.
The only thing special about them was that they were all at the Dependant level, and each one had a unique appearance that could contaminate anyone who observed them.
However, at this moment, the three powerful monsters were all lingering at the edge of the river, not daring to approach at all.
It was as if an indescribable horror was hidden in the river!
'They definitely won't be afraid of ordinary monsters. That means … what I saw that day was correct … there's an incomparably terrifying monster hidden under this river … Is it a God's Bane?'
'Fortunately … to it, we're just a few ants. It won't even pay attention to us, and it won't care even if it sees us?'
'That's not right … We might have secretions from another God's Bane on us …'
Chung Shen-soo carefully looked at the riverbed and found that the giant black shadow he saw that day seemed to have disappeared.
After a while, he and Zola finally brought the fainted Rachel to the other side of the river.
"Puff!"
Zola punched Rachel's stomach. The unconscious Rachel coughed and spat out a lot of water.
"I think … she almost drowned."
Chung Shen-soo frowned and couldn't help but say.
"We'll rest here and prepare to pass through the Giant Comoros's territory …"
Zola sighed.
She knew that they had already pissed off this giant beast last time, and it must be patrolling nearby.
Furthermore, the other party was definitely still patrolling nearby. The possibility of passing through the other party's territory safely was very small.
They could only try to improve as much as possible.
"It might not be safe here …"
Chung Shen-soo was just about to speak when he suddenly felt a strong sense of fear.
"Splash!"
Above the great river, the surface of the water suddenly exploded, and a black snake-like object emerged. Every scale on it seemed to be made up of layers of mysterious symbols, and it was extremely three-dimensional.
"It's the monster at the bottom of the river …"
"I knew it … Although we're ants, we still have the aura of another God's Bane. Something might happen."
Chung Shen-soo closed his eyes without thinking.
Even so, he felt as if he had been hit by a heavy hammer. His eardrums buzzed, and two streams of blood flowed from his nose.
This was the powerful mental impact of looking directly at a God's Bane!
"Don't look at it!"
Chung Shen-soo could only shout this, but it was too late.
Zola, who was wearing goggles, subconsciously looked at the snake's tail. She looked at the scales made up of mysterious symbols that gave off a strong sense.
She saw the three dependent monsters on the other side of the river as if they had seen their natural enemy. She turned around and ran, but it was too late.
The four-armed strange ape was swept into the river by the black snake's tail without any hindrance. After a few bubbles, it disappeared …
"It's looking for food? Luckily … we're not big enough. We can't even fill the gaps between its teeth … "
As soon as this thought appeared in Zola's mind, her eyes became bloodshot. Blood vessels appeared around her eyes and wriggled like earthworms.
She looked directly at the God's Bane. Her mind was under attack, and she was losing control!
"Kill me, kill me!"
Zola fell to the ground and kept rolling. Her hair was already growing wildly, becoming thick and long. She let out a ferocious roar.
"Sorry …"
Chung Shen-soo raised his gun and suddenly smashed it on Zola's neck, knocking her out.
Even though she was unconscious, she was still transforming. Obviously, she could not hold on for long.
"Sigh … I can't do anything …"
"After all, I don't have any mental skills …" Chung Shen-soo thought for a moment and suddenly took out the crystal left by the faceless spirit from his pocket.
"Should I give it a try?"
He couldn't help but have a thought. "This place is still safe. After all, it's an Abomination, or call it the King of Black Mist. It just unleashed its aura, so no dependent dares to come close …"
"And it doesn't seem to care about us. It didn't attack in the river before … It definitely won't attack now."
Thinking of this, Chung Shen-soo no longer hesitated and swallowed the crystal.
The digestion of the faceless spirit was also recorded in the previous diary. He needed to collect ninety-nine different dreams and eat it in his sleep. He might even need some supplementary materials.
But Chung Shen-soo didn't care. He wanted to forcibly contain this power!
"After all, I have a high chance of winning the bet. It doesn't matter if I lose. It's a tribulation anyway. If I don't force myself to a dead end, how can it be considered a tribulation?"
The crystal kept bubbling as it slid down his throat and into his stomach. It seemed to melt quickly.
In an instant, a strange feeling swept through Chung Shen-soo's body …
