Chapter 263
Both of them were middle-aged men. One was slightly older, with fair skin, and it was obvious that he lived like a prince. The other had a bronze complexion, with obvious scars on his bare arms and neck, and he had a strong temperament. Of course, at this time, both of them were in a sorry state, and there was still a lingering fear on their faces.
“Quasi-Level 7!”
As soon as he got close, the fair-skinned man immediately said to Xiao Yaran, “Apply for military support, or apply to the Martial Arts Association for a Master transfer order.”
“Quasi-Level 7?!”
Xiao Yaran’s expression suddenly changed.
A quasi-Level 7 Exotic Beast, no wonder only two of the four peak Level 6 martial artists who went in came out. This was no longer a problem that the armed forces of their small city could solve.
“Okay!” Xiao Yaran nodded decisively and was about to take out her cell phone to make a call. But a hand reached out from the side and gently pressed her hand that was about to dial the number.
“Not for now.”
Xiao Yaran turned her head and met Lu Sheng’s calm eyes.“Let me give it a try first …”
Lu Sheng slowly put down the luggage on his body and in his hands and said casually, “Remember to apply for the adjustment of the task level when you’re done.”
“You are?” The fair-skinned middle-aged man frowned and looked at Lu Sheng.
The other man with a strong temperament narrowed his eyes and looked Lu Sheng up and down, and there were a few flashes of light in his eyes from time to time.
“Oh, this is …”
Xiao Yaran was about to introduce him, but Lu Sheng had already spoken.
“Give me five minutes, or …”
Lu Sheng looked down at his cell phone, and then looked at them in a very polite tone, asking for advice, and said, “Why don’t you have some water and rest first?”
Xiao Yaran and the two middle-aged men were all stunned. After a few seconds, the fair-skinned middle-aged man finally couldn’t help it and his attitude turned sour.
“Sir, what on earth … uh, what the hell?!”
Halfway through his words, the man’s expression suddenly became horrified. He watched as the “Lu Sheng” in front of him faded away bit by bit, as if he had seen a ghost in broad daylight.
The strong middle-aged man next to him suddenly turned his head. He just happened to catch Lu Sheng’s small back as he strolled into the unfinished building.
The strong man’s expression was shocked, and he slowly spat out a few words with great difficulty.
“What … what kind of speed is this?”
Lu Sheng had just walked into the unfinished building when he smelled a strong stench. It was like the smell of slaughtered cattle and sheep that had been exposed to the sun for three to five days.
Lu Sheng had smelled this smell once before at the Qiming General Selection in the Eastern Military Region, but it was far from as strong as this. A building with ventilation on all sides was full of this smell.
Lu Sheng suspected that the exotic beasts provided for them to select had all been “washed” beforehand.
With the guidance of his Spiritual Power, Lu Sheng didn’t waste any time and went straight to the fifth floor.
There were no railings or handrails in the way of the unfinished cement corridor. Lu Sheng went from the first floor to the fifth floor in less than two breaths.
A very visually shocking scene appeared in front of him. And the stench that was so bad that it was almost nauseating was also at its peak.
Lu Sheng could even imagine that the air in front of him was filled with clouds of fecal yellow gas …
***
It was too smelly. Normal people would faint under this stench, weaker fighters would also have their fighting strength greatly reduced. Thinking about how the meat he usually ate and the marrow fluid he dLevel came from this thing, Lu Sheng couldn’t help but feel disgusted.
“You deserve to die!”
Ugliness and filth were both original sins. Lu Sheng’s cold gaze fell on the monster in front of him. It was a monster that looked like a black cicada pupa. But it had six more long and strong limbs, its claws were like scythes, the cement floor was full of plowed marks.
Its head was as thick as its body, its mouthpart took up four-fifths of its head, eyes the size of mung beans were lined up all the way to the back of its head. Its mouth was filled with fine sharp teeth, a long flesh-colored tongue was rolling inside. The red fleshy vine that shot out of the unfinished building was its tongue, and also its main attack.
“Bare Demonic Hydra.”
Lu Sheng had learned about this monster in Sage Martial University’s Exotic Beast class. Their strength was generally between Level 5 and 6.
The one in front of him was incredible, it was already showing signs of reaching Level 7.
Right now, this Bare Demonic Hydra was eating. Its mouthpart was constantly moving and chewing, its tongue was wrapped around a human corpse that only had half of its body left. Lu Sheng recognized the corpse, it was the Level 6 Martial Artist that tried to escape from the unfinished building but was forcefully dragged back.
Right now, this person’s face was twisted with fear as he looked at Lu Sheng, his grey eyes were wide open, as if he was saying to Lu Sheng —You’re too late.
“Sorry.”
Lu Sheng silently said in his mind.
Although he wasn’t a person with a strong sense of justice, and was easily bound by morals. But if he was a bit faster, he would have a chance to save this person’s life. Sometimes, it was just a thought, a few seconds of thinking. Some things had already become irreversible.
“I’ll try to make its death as painfull as possible; I promise.”
Lu Sheng very seriously said to the half corpse.
“Keke!”
The Bare Demonic Hydra that was interrupted became a bit irritable, its red tongue covered in tiny barbs suddenly let go of the corpse and disappeared into the air.
Lu Sheng tilted his head. The red fleshy tongue shot out from the side of his ear.
Through the ceiling, a fist-sized hole appeared in the thick cement layer. The steel bars inside were all broken, and pieces of cement were falling down.
Lu Sheng’s expression was calm as he walked towards the Bare Demonic Hydra. The latter’s tongue danced wildly in the empty floor like a whip, lashing out large cracks and collapsing the surrounding cement pillars and the ground. However, every time the fleshy tongue hit Lu Sheng, it would mysteriously pass through his body.
Lu Sheng’s figure was like a 3D projection with a bad signal, sometimes blurring and sometimes appearing again.
The only thing that didn’t change was … It was his straight path forward.
Wisps of glacial and volcanic aura rose from Lu Sheng’s body. It was as if a thick layer of ice had cracked open, and the surging magma beneath erupted with boiling hot air. Blood-red and scorching flame pillars rose into the sky one after another, bringing up large clouds of scorching water vapor.
Lu Sheng slowly moved his neck and wrists, and his body made cracking noises.
“Okay, you can start trembling now.”
He finished calmly.
In the next second, his figure completely disappeared.
