The silent withered leaves fell slowly.
The dusty ancient path seemed to have been buried by time. Occasionally, a few lonely figures flashed by, followed by crazy howls.
On the uneven ground, the greenish-black moss and red gravel hid countless murderous intentions.
A road demon lurked behind a pile of gravel.
Compared to his compatriots, the road demon was usually very patient.
Perhaps it was due to the limitations of his racial talent — after all, he could not move quickly.
The only thing that made people feel threatened was the bloody mouth that was disguised under the surface of the stone.
Travelers passing by might fall into the road demon's mouth if they were not careful.
The patient waiting of these greedy creatures was not in vain. They would secrete a large amount of acid at that moment. This acid was so corrosive that even the resistance of a Legendary powerhouse could not resist it. As for ordinary people, they would basically be corroded into a pool of delicious flesh and blood in an instant, absorbed by the countless holes in the road demon's stomach as part of itself.
Of course, most legendary masters were very careful. They would not fall into the road demon's trap. Therefore, most of the road demons' stomachs were those ignorant withered zombies.
But even the road demon himself had to admit that the taste of zombies was terrible and not nutritious.
The mummified zombie on the Dead Leaf Corridor was a special creature that was between an evil spirit and an undead. Even textual scholars could not speculate its origin, let alone the road demons with low intelligence.
It was a quiet morning. He just waited patiently for lunch.
A figure appeared in the distance.
It was a humanoid creature that staggered and occasionally let out strange howls.
All of this indicated the identity of the newcomer.
A pitiful withered zombie.
But even though the road demon hated this creature, he had to continue hiding behind the gravel to fill his stomach.
In order to enhance his invisibility, he even cast a camouflage spell on himself. This was one of the few spells he had. It was difficult to confuse high-level experts, but because of its unique nature, few people were willing to provoke a road demon.
Because killing a road demon was very troublesome, and the benefits one could get were very little.
As usual, the Shriveled Zombie staggered over.
The road demon could not wait to enjoy this lunch.
However, at this moment, a ghostly figure suddenly appeared in the depths of the fog.
He pierced through the fog like lightning, and before the shriveled zombie could react, he chopped off its ugly head!
Unlike the Abominations, the Shriveled Zombies were much weaker. Once their heads were cut off, they would most likely die.
Lu Mo was furious.
His lunch was snatched away just like that.
He decided to teach this ghostly shadow a lesson.
Thus, he quietly moved his body that had fused with the earth and gradually approached the direction of the figure.
Everyone knew that Lu Mo could control his body. He could stretch and flatten his body to cover the entire canyon.
If the figure wanted to cross this road, it would have to step over his body.
The Disguise spell had just been cast, and the effect was perfect. He was confident that he could swallow this human who ruined his lunch.
However, in the next second, a flashing spherical object was thrown out.
Before Lu Mo could react, blazing flames began to burn his body!
Accompanied by the terrifying heat, his body began to contract in pain, his vocal organs emitting infrasonic wails.
However, this human in front of him cruelly turned a blind eye.
He watched helplessly as Lu Mo struggled in vain, and finally turned into a pile of ashes.
"Using the Flaming Sun Orb to smash Lu Mo is such a waste!"
Marvin shook his head with a pained expression.
He endured the burnt smell and rummaged around Lu Mo's body. As expected, he only found some garbage.
Lu Mo's body structure was very abnormal. Apart from its predatory organs, it also had digestive organs — this creature's digestive ability was even stronger than a dragon's!
In many territories in the abyss, the demon lords would raise some creatures that Lu Mo could digest the most garbage. This showed how abnormal the acid in this thing's stomach was.
In fact, if Ma Wen wanted to, he could still capture some Lu Mo alive and collect the acid in their bodies.
In the game in his previous life, Ma Wen had done a similar task. This was a profound skill. It was dangerous, but it was very valuable.
Lu Mo's acid combined with a specific enchantment spell could give your dagger a very terrible corrosive curse that could even corrode legendary armor.
Unfortunately, Ma Wen did not have that much time.
He had money and resources.
As the lord of a territory that was second to none after the Cataclysm, Ma Wen had far more resources in his hands than in his previous life.
Things like the Flaming Sun Orb, even the big guilds in the game would only use it when they were exploring dungeons.
But for Ma Wen, these wizard artifacts from the Craftsman Tower were just consumables.
Anyway, most of the Craftsman Wizards in the Craftsman Tower were the least affected by the chaotic magic because of their profession.
They survived the Cataclysm, but it would be very difficult for them to continue to survive. They had to cooperate with people.
And the White River Valley was the best target. In the process of cooperation, it was very easy for Ma Wen to get some Flaming Sun Orbs.
Even so, using the Flaming Sun Orb to smash Lu Mo was a waste. If not for the fact that he was in a hurry and had no other choice, Ma Wen would never do it.
… …
It was almost noon, and the sky in the Scarlet Wasteland was always gray. Fortunately, the biological clock of legendary powerhouses was very accurate, and they could judge the time freely.
Marvin slaughtered his way through, killing a large number of monsters in the Withered Leaf Corridor and obtaining a large amount of EXP — but this EXP was useless to him. Maybe it would be effective to increase the level of the Frontline Gunner, but it would not help his overall strength much.
The only thing that made him feel relieved was that he did not encounter many Lu Mo along the way, only three.
Most of them were Shriveled Zombies and Abominations.
It seemed that Balkh had to pay a high price to summon the Lu Mo. Otherwise, he would definitely have more of such disgusting things.
Looking at the data panel, the value on the Soul Orb had changed to [196200]. It seemed that as long as he killed one more creature, the energy value on the Soul Orb would be full.
Ma Wen was looking forward to seeing what kind of ability it would have.
But now was not the time to think about this.
Because on the road ahead, there was a vague shape of a canyon.
The valley where Balkh lived.
