The Inferno King Crab slowly shrank as it was placed on the altar. It looked like a giant crab that was being roasted.
White smoke began to rise from the Inferno King Crab's body. As the smoke drifted into the air, it looked like the smoke from a pot that was being cooked.
How strange. Why would I have such a strange analogy?
Gao Peng shook his head.
"How long will it take?"
The dwarf thought for a moment before replying, "About four days. This crab is a higher tier than that ant, so it'll be more difficult to decompose it."
"Speaking of which, you've always bragged about how you've decomposed gods and even Overlord-tier monsters. Why do I feel like you're just bragging?" Gao Peng was speechless. If it took this long to decompose an Emperor-tier monster, wouldn't it take months or even years to decompose an Overlord-tier monster?
"I'm not in my peak form right now. The altar is slightly damaged. If I can recover to my peak form, I'll be able to decompose monsters much faster," the dwarf coughed awkwardly.
Indeed, the dwarf's current abilities didn't live up to its previous bragging.
"Then how can you recover to your peak form?"
"As long as I keep decomposing monster carcasses," the dwarf's eyes lit up. "Actually, I get some benefits from decomposing the monster carcasses. I'll use them to restore the altar. "
"Oh? How much have you recovered compared to when I first met you? "
The dwarf stole a glance at Gao Peng and coughed. "Less than one percent, I guess."
Gao Peng knew what was going on when he heard the dwarf's words.
The altar's appetite wasn't small. He had already asked it to decompose two Emperor-tier and several King-tier monsters, but it hadn't even recovered one percent. It seemed like it was a bottomless pit.
"Let's take it slow," the dwarf said nonchalantly. After all, it didn't have the concept of time.
It was immortal. The Great Altar Cutter was no ordinary object. It had suffered a great calamity in the past, and even its altar had been smashed to pieces.
But so what? It was eternal and indestructible. Even if it was truly shattered, it could still be reborn from nothingness. It was just that this was a very long process.
Of course, although it was used to it, the loneliness of nothingness was still very boring. Unless it had no other choice, it would never fall into a deep sleep.
Only by experiencing the loneliness of nothingness would one cherish the feeling of existence. Compared to that, even pain was a form of enjoyment.
That night, Gao Peng ordered Xiao Huang and the others to raid the Inferno King Crab's nest.
The Inferno King Crab's nest contained a large number of wood-type and fire-type feys.
Fire-type monsters might not be able to absorb wood-type feys directly, but they could use them indirectly through other means.
Because wood gave birth to fire, wood-type feys could complement the fire element very well in areas with rich fire elements.
Most of the fire-type feys had been eaten by the Inferno King Crab, except for a few that were still growing.
After witnessing the battle between the Inferno King Crab and Xiao Huang and the others, the seven little Dragon Ants were thoroughly convinced.
During this period of time, they had gradually come to realize that their mother hadn't come looking for them for a long time. The smart little Dragon Ants had a vague idea of the truth. Although it was cruel, they quickly adjusted their mentality.
Hence, over the past few days, the seven little Dragon Ants had been constantly trying to curry favor with Gao Peng.
Sometimes, a monster's intelligence was far beyond human imagination. Especially when it came to survival and evolution, their intelligence would be extraordinary.
Although they could sense that Gao Peng was the weakest of the bunch, the seven little Dragon Ants still knew that Gao Peng was the best person to curry favor with.
After a few days of nourishment, the little Dragon Ants had grown a size larger. They were now comparable to adult Golden Retrievers.
Elder Baby stood on its hind legs, its forelimbs resting on Gao Peng's shoulders as it massaged Gao Peng's shoulders. Third Baby and Fourth Baby curled up in front of Gao Peng like two puppies, massaging Gao Peng's legs. The rest of the Dragon Ants stood in line outside the circle.
"Gulp." Silly drank the last of its juice and stared solemnly at Gao Peng's back.
Silly carefully stored the empty bottle in its hand into its storage space, then shook its body. Silly's body instantly expanded by a few times.
Then, it floated behind Gao Peng with a serious look on its face.
It wrapped its tentacles around the little Dragon Ants and lifted them up like an adult grabbing a child by the collar. One by one, the little Dragon Ants were placed on the ground.
"Go play with chicken poop. I'll give you a massage. "Silly declared its dominance.
Dozens of tentacles dropped down and landed on Gao Peng's body from all directions.
They squeezed, rubbed, pushed, and pressed.
"Gao Peng, is this enough strength?" Silly whispered.
Gao Peng was a little surprised. Why was this little guy here to give him a massage today? However, he quickly forgot about it.
"It's okay. It would be great if you could use more strength. My head was a little stiff last night. Just massage my shoulders a little more."
"Got it!"
.....
Four days passed.
The Inferno King Crab had completely disappeared from the altar, leaving behind six items in its place.
"This Inferno King Crab is very well-decomposed," Dwarf said. "I think it's a Inferno King Crab with a dream."
"A dream?"
"You might not know this, but after decomposing so many monsters, I've come to a conclusion. Generally speaking, the stronger the monster's obsession, the more items it can decompose." Dwarf shook its head. "I don't know why."
"Then do you know what this Inferno King Crab's dream is?"
"I don't know. I can't read minds." Dwarf yawned. "I'm exhausted from decomposing this time. Take a look for yourself. I won't explain it to you."
Speaking of which, the little black man had seen many monsters and humans before, but he had never seen anyone as strange as Gao Peng.
Logically speaking, only it would know the specific effects of the items it decomposed. However, this person seemed to be able to predict the future. He knew how to use the items and what effects they had.
However, it wasn't curious. If Gao Peng wanted to tell it, then so be it. If not, then so be it.
"Alright. Go get some rest." Gao Peng removed the six items from the altar.
On the far left were Soul Essence and Flesh Essence. Next to them were Strength Amplification Lv3.
Fire Resistance Lv3.
Flame Mastery Lv3.
Apart from these five items, there was also a transparent, light red crystal with twelve sides.
[Item Name]: Fire-Devouring Fruit
