Netherworld Retrograde

Chapter 693: Chapter 325: In a Hurry?

Within a mysterious region with spatial folding, a black Abyss Dragon over ten meters long, bearing gruesome wounds all over its body, was dragging currents of water as it swiftly made for the lake through the mountains and forests.

And a number of figures clad in black overcoats, known as the Giant City Night Patrol, were hot on its tail, their coats flapping loudly in the wind.

Seeing that it was only a kilometer away from the lake, the Abyss Dragon suddenly increased its speed.

Almost at the same time, a petite member of the Night Patrol let out a majestic dragon roar.

Her body accelerated instantaneously, shooting out like a cannonball, and quickly closed in on the black Abyss Dragon.

Sensing danger, the Abyss Dragon twisted its body quickly, its long tail smashing towards Ye Boshou, hoping to drive her back.

If it could just reach the lake, if it could just get to that place, it could survive!

However, the moment its tail was about to smash down, it suddenly became stiff for an instant; its pulsing heart eerily paused for a moment, causing a slight flaw in its movement.

This allowed Ye Boshou to deftly dodge the tail strike and toss out a long whip that wrapped around the tail of the Abyss Dragon, swinging herself up with its force.

The next instant, she landed precisely on the dragon’s head, and the Abyss Dragon shifted its lantern-like eyes to see the figure standing on its facial bones.

It was a petite woman with short hair, a human female who on any normal day it could swallow ten of without choking on a single bone. Those humans were a tribute that had filled its belly.

But now, the Abyss Dragon felt a surge of fear from what should have been an offering.

At the same time, the girl slightly opened her mouth, and a ferocious ancient dragon’s roar bellowed out.

Dragon Roar·Spirit Destruction!

The dragon roar released at close range was extremely terrifying; the Abyss Dragon saw the fearsome ancient giant dragon roar, its savage dragon teeth closing as if to crush it to pieces.

Boom!

The Abyss Dragon crashed heavily into the mountain forest, and the water it controlled also burst apart violently.

It was trembling all over, yet incapable of lifting even one claw. Even though that human woman was right in front of it, and it could just swallow her with one flick of its tongue, it was able to do nothing. Its vision began to blur, and blood started to pour from its every orifice.

Its spirit had been utterly destroyed.

A stronger member of the Dragon Clan had ripped apart its spirit with even more violence, leaving it in a near-vegetative state, or rather, a vegetative dragon state.

The short-haired girl looked indifferently at the dying struggles of the Abyss Dragon, tossing two candies into her mouth.

The rest of the Night Patrol arrived quickly.

One of them, a Night Patrol member wielding a War Body Blade, decisively beheaded the defenseless Abyss Dragon with a single stroke. Foul-smelling blood splattered everywhere.

This area was not a Forbidden Zone, but rather a peculiar space similar to the Abyss Maze, Destruction Volcano, and Dead Sea Wreck.

It was a strange terrain formed by Disaster Fog or other forces after the catastrophe.

It was named Ten Thousand Dragon Lake, the most recently discovered mysterious region.

It is currently speculated that it was a space created after the collision and mutual consumption of two small Disaster Fogs.

An investigation team discovered this place by following the clues while investigating the event of that year.

This place has peculiar spatial folding and can be said to be isolated from the world, with a multitude of extraordinary creatures. There are also many undiscovered groups of extraordinary biological species.

At the same time, there are also human populations trapped here. But due to the time span of the Disaster Fog during the catastrophe period, they have experienced a severe regression of civilization.

Tanks and machinery from before the catastrophe are treated as Holy Relics by them.

At the same time, there are settlements that secure safety by offering tributes.

Of course, there are also rebellious forces, but none of them amount to much.

Without the protection of Giant City, without the heritage of Magic Potions, and even without the instruction of knowledge.

It is comparable to a weakened version of the Lost Land, unlikely to produce any powerful beings.

Fortunately, they were discovered by a team. The Eighth Generation Champion even came personally!

“Well done!”

“To incapacitate a Fifth-Sense Abyss Dragon with a single roar, you are amazing!”

“It won’t be long before you reach the Fifth Sense, right?”

“Remember to join the Xuanjia Group then, Cheese.”

The Night Patrol members didn’t hold back their praise for the girl.

And this short-haired girl was none other than Cheese, who had not been seen by Li Yelai for a long time.

The training she underwent during this time allowed her Spiritual Energy to increase rapidly; at the current rate, she should be able to advance to the Fifth Sense within two months.

Advancing from the Four Awakenings to the Fifth Sense in five months, that speed is indeed very fast.

As Cheese chewed her candies, she jokingly complained, “Look at you, you’re making me blush.”

“That doesn’t look like you’re embarrassed at all.” A female member of Xuanjia Group, Liu Yun, teased before laughing, “Last night, a liaison officer from the support forces came, led by Captain Cang Bai.”

“That’s normal; she’s been after Captain Yang Chen for more than a year or two now.” Cheese nodded.

Yang Chen had been the subject of gossip before. One was Cheese’s cousin ‘Floating’, and the other was Captain Cang Bai.

“And they brought news of the Night General.” Liu Yun smiled and said, “The Night General has returned to Giant City, and has even advanced to the Fifth Sense, becoming the second Five Senses Captain of Giant City, as well as the acting captain of our team!”

“Glad he’s back safely…” Cheese smiled faintly, then clicked her tongue, “So he’s reached the Fifth Sense already, huh? That’s really fast. I’ve been overtaken…”

“I told you, didn’t I?” Liu Yun whispered, draping an arm over Cheese’s shoulder, “When you just advanced to the Third Awakening, he was still at the Third Awakening. And you are from the Path of Babbling… Against that blockhead, you should’ve just come right out and said, ‘Listen to me, take me.’”
