Previously, when the nine-headed bird made a ruckus in the canyon, these Demonic Beasts living nearby were scared away.
After that, the nine-headed bird was tortured by the virus and its vitality was getting worse and worse. They quietly returned to the canyon and watched the nine-headed bird from a distance like jackals and wolves.
Seeing that the nine-headed bird's breath was getting weaker and weaker, they slowly approached the nine-headed bird like walking on thin ice.
Until just now, when the nine-headed bird died, they couldn't wait to rush out of the shadows and madly rushed to the nine-headed bird's body.
Not only to eat, but also to covet the vitality contained in the nine-headed bird's flesh and blood.
The appearance of this group of Demonic Beasts directly cut off the idea of getting benefits from the nine-headed bird's body.
Of course, they were unwilling, but there was nothing they could do except watch the nine-headed bird's body being eaten by countless Demonic Beasts.
Black Cat thought he could have a good meal, but he didn't expect so many Demonic Beasts to come out of nowhere. He could only grit his teeth and look at the group of Demonic Beasts eating happily on the screen.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Black Cat's head flashed.
"Yes, there is a virus in the nine-headed bird, hahaha, eat it and wait for death!"
He thought of the virus that killed the nine-headed bird, and for a while, he felt a sense of satisfaction.
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but look at the Black Cat who was laughing heartily.
This guy …
However, it was true that there was a virus in the nine-headed bird. Even if Sambika weakened the infection, once it was eaten by the Demonic Beasts, the probability of being infected with the virus was basically 100%.
Thinking deeper, if this group of Demonic Beasts with the virus returned to the place where they were supposed to stay, they would definitely become corpses soon and then be eaten by other Demonic Beasts who smelled the [fishy] smell.
"This … …"
Law's eyes were filled with surprise and he couldn't help but look at Sambika. The latter obviously thought of this because of the Black Cat's reminder.
If the virus spreads in this way, the consequences seem to be unimaginable.
"Law, do you want to … …"
"It's too late."
Law shook his head and interrupted Sambika.
Although he had some ideas, it was obviously too late now.
To cut off the spread of the virus, all the Demonic Beasts on the nine-headed bird's body must be dealt with, but the number of Demonic Beasts was too many, tens of thousands.
"Eat, eat, eat, I'll let you eat. Wait for your death, you bunch of beasts!"
The black cat was still cursing and then was kicked by Law to be honest.
Jin and the others also thought of this, but the situation was already out of their control. They could only let it develop.
Given the ecological environment of the Darkness Continent, it wasn't to the extent where it would be destroyed by an infectious virus. However, it was inevitable that many lives would be lost.
Without the Nine-headed Bird's entanglement, under Qiuqiu's guidance, they quickly arrived at a valley near the lake. It was also a home left behind by ancient humans.
Looking down from above, the valley was an irregular oval. It was surrounded by mountains on all sides, and there was only one narrow mountain path leading to the outside.
The lake occupied about eighty percent of the area in the valley, and the houses built by the ancient humans were scattered on the cliffs in a picturesque manner. Rock paths were cut out and connected to the buildings on the cliffs, forming a pleasing line that almost covered every inch of the area. There were many watchtowers on the top of the mountain.
The Flaming Tree of Silver hovered above the valley, not in a hurry to land at the bottom of the valley. It was also because there was no suitable place to land in the valley.
The lake occupied eighty percent of the area. If the remaining twenty percent was divided into a separate area, there would be enough space for them to land.
Perhaps it was because the buildings were carved out of rock, so it was unknown how many years had passed, but these buildings were still well-preserved. After all, the mountain rocks here were astonishingly hard.
Thinking about it, the ancient humans must have exhausted a lot of energy to build so many buildings.
In addition to the lake in the valley, there were also many plants growing on the shore. There were low bushes and scattered large trees.
However, there was no sign of any life. There was a deathly stillness.
In the central control room, Qiuqiu looked at everything at the bottom of the valley. Her eyes were full of complex emotions.
The sense of familiarity rooted in the depths of her soul didn't give her the joy of returning home. There was only a sense of confusion mixed with fear.
"I … want to go down and take a look."
She said so, and no one would stop her.
The Flaming Tree of Silver hovered in the air, while Law and the others came outside and jumped onto the stone plank path on the cliffs.
Looking at the rougher carvings of the building at a close distance, a heavy historical aura hit them in the face.
Law glanced at Jin, Sa Ling, and Sheerah, whose eyes were shining, and knew their interest, so he didn't bother them. He led Norb directly to the bottom of the valley, accompanied by Biscay and the others.
With the help of the domain ability, Law and the others successfully landed at the bottom of the valley and stepped on the soft ground.
"Be careful, in my memory, there seems to be a group of dangerous creatures at the bottom of the lake."
When everyone came to the shore, Qiuqiu, who came with them, reminded them.
"Okay."
Law nodded and immediately looked at Dong Ba and said, "Detect it."
"Okay."
Dong Ba heard the words and released the Psychic Circle, which penetrated into the bottom of the lake.
But soon, Dong Ba retracted his Psychic Power as if he was electrocuted, and a strange expression appeared on his face.
"What's wrong?"
Everyone's nerves tightened and instantly entered a state of readiness.
"Nothing, maybe I'm too sensitive."
Dong Ba frowned, recalling the strange feeling just now, shook his head, and released the Psychic Circle again.
The faintly glowing Psychic Circle penetrated to the bottom of the lake again. This time, the feedback on Dong Ba's body became clearer.
In an instant, Dong Ba suddenly retracted the Psychic Circle again, and exhaled a breath of cold air.
"There's something wrong with this lake!"
Dong Ba felt a piercing chill out of thin air. He raised his hands and a layer of white frost suddenly condensed on them. Not only his hands, but also his cheeks.
Seeing this, Law decisively used his domain to cover Dong Ba's body, separated the cold from the condensed white frost, and threw it above the lake, turning into a burst of cold smoke, hovering in the air.
"Retreat."
After shaking off the chill attached to Dong Ba, Law's eyes changed slightly, and while reminding, he quickly retreated.
The others heard the sound and followed Law back.
"Gulp."
The mirror-like calm lake swelled with a seemingly sticky huge bubble, twisting and changing into various shapes that could not be seen clearly.
About ten seconds later, the viscous bubble stopped twisting. It seemed to take Law as a reference object and turned into the shape of a person. The surface of the body was a slowly flowing liquid, giving people a sense of sticky deja vu.
Water Man?
Law looked warily at the unknown thing turned from the viscous bubble and could clearly feel a trace of hostility.
