Demon Cultivator in Abyssal Era

Chapter 247: Chapter 156: Corruption Link_2

The other low-tier abyss creatures disappeared in the blink of an eye; their numbers were useless! They couldn’t trouble him at all.

But just as this question arose, the next second he got the answer.

Suddenly, three figures shot out from the mountain, flying above the squad, as countless corrupted tentacles surged from their bodies, attacking the squad below!

It turned out that three corrupted awakened beings, all reaching the General Tier, came at once!

Chu Xiu suddenly had a moment of realization; no wonder he saw several figures rushing upward at that time, but only one came to trouble him. The others were attracted by Xue Li and the others.

”So, they ended up taking the hit for me?”

Chu Xiu felt no guilt for inadvertently causing trouble for others. After all, he planned to let these people explore the way for him. Their current state was exactly what he wanted, so he leisurely observed from the sky.

”Bang! Bang! Bang!”

As the three corrupted awakened beings caught up with the crowd, a large number of tentacles descended from the sky. Su Jinyu and the others could only dodge awkwardly, and their escape speed dramatically decreased. Even if the tentacles didn’t hit the awakened squad, they would quickly disperse upon hitting the soil, forming tentacle prisons, further hindering their escape!

Meanwhile, suddenly another batch of underground humans flooded out from the cavern!

However, unlike the previous zombie-like mad underground residents, this batch was obviously of much higher quality. Their armor was darker, their movements were orderly, resembling a well-trained army, and they actually wielded modern weapons!

Assault rifles, shotguns, heavy machine guns, riot shields, etc., these weapons bizarrely fused with the mycelium extending from their bodies, making the combination of metal and flesh look very disgusting.

With the activation of the Nether Demon Eyes, a panel appeared in front of Chu Xiu.

[Corrupted Underground New Human Soldier]

[Tier] Warrior Tier Level 6

[Attributes] Constitution 104.5, Spirit 14.1, Energy Level 26.4

[Skill] Adrenaline Burst

[Traits] Monster Strength, Rock Armor

[Talent] Corruption Link (Can fuse self with objects via mycelium, thus repairing objects and driving them in a special manner)

Corrupted Soldiers!

The newly emerged creatures made Chu Xiu’s expression slightly tense.

These corrupted soldiers, like the corrupted residents, possessed physical attributes and reflexes far beyond the same tier, but unlike the chaotic swarm of corrupted residents, they were clearly well-trained, maintaining formation even during high-speed runs, much like a real army!

Moreover, they had a special talent.

[Corruption Link]

These four words made Chu Xiu squint slightly as he looked down carefully.

Perhaps having been placed in the pit for too long, the firearms in the soldiers’ hands showed heavy rust, with some even having damaged barrels.

But under the fusion and repair of the mycelium, they became functional enough for normal use, with their power even enhanced to some degree!

These corrupted soldiers aimed and shot while moving, unable to truly threaten Xue Li and the others, but still causing them considerable trouble!

At this moment, another loud noise was heard as a gigantic five-meter-tall mechanical creation burst through the mountain, revealing itself to be a humanoid mecha!

No, calling it a mecha wasn’t quite accurate; the main structure was evidently recognizable as a heavy infantry combat vehicle crafted from high-strength steel, but now it was fused with five Fierce Tier corrupted underground soldiers, covered in a mass of mycelium, completely altering its form.

Two anti-air cannons were moved to its shoulders, the bulletproof armor became skin, and the vehicle structure was dismantled and reshaped into a humanoid mecha, while the five Fierce Tier corrupted soldiers formed its limbs and torso with a distinctive and grotesque fusion of flesh and blood linking different parts.

But if it were only like this, it would merely be a case of dismantling a heavy infantry combat vehicle and repurposing it on a body. What shocked Chu Xiu was that he could sense the engine of this heavy combat vehicle roaring, fueled by a special kind of fuel, and the power generated by the engine could be injected into the bodies of the five corrupted soldiers, enhancing their strength and helping them operate this ”mecha”!

This was true fusion, becoming a new kind of biological weapon! After completely digesting the armor and power of the heavy infantry combat vehicle, this humanoid mecha created by five Fierce Tier soldiers had combat power nearly touching the General Tier!

”What a miraculous talent.”

Even after reading a lot of material about the Abyss, Chu Xiu couldn’t help but feel amazed at the scene before him.

And just as he was astounded, the corrupted mecha rapidly caught up with the obstructed Xue Li and others, then the two anti-aircraft cannons on its shoulders burst into full firepower, tearing open the formation maintained by Xue Li and the others in an instant!

It’s said that using anti-aircraft guns as artillery on level terrain might lead to a military court; in front of this large-caliber artillery, even a Level 9 Fierce Tier awakened wouldn’t dare to take it directly!

”Looking for death!”

A flash of anger flickered in the eyes of the elder surnamed Huang, and with a swift movement, he rushed toward the humanoid mecha, intending to eliminate this strange creation immediately, but as a strange laughter echoed from the sky, more tentacles descended, encircling the elder layer by layer!

Simultaneously, another corrupted awakened being descended from the sky, joining the battle with the elder!
