403: Chapter 181: Legends of Gods and Ghosts_1 403: Chapter 181: Legends of Gods and Ghosts_1 “Monsters at a ti like this?”
Lin Baici’s scalp tingled.
This was a matter of life and death!
However, Lin Baici wasn’t one to sit back and await his doom.
Despite the slim chances, he was determined to fight back, so he summoned the Clay Human.
Wearing a gas mask, he wasn’t worried about his eyes getting blinded, but the sandstorm was so fierce that he couldn’t even see Xia Hongyao, who was close at hand.
In this situation, he could only hope that the Little Clay Man would act like a radar, pointing out the precise location of the monster.
The Little Clay Man was made of red clay, but in this sandstorm, it also struggled greatly.
As soon as it appeared, it was nearly blown away, tumbling out.
Once it stabilized, it imdiately buried its head and began tunneling into the sand.
It wasn’t afraid of getting sand in its eyes and could see everything around clearly, but the wind was too strong for its small fra to withstand.
“The monster is here!”
Lin Baici patted Xia Hongyao’s back forcefully, signaling her to let go of him: “Stay down and don’t move!”
High Ponytail realized Lin Baici was getting up and imdiately followed him: “What’s wrong?”
The wind and sand were overwhelming, drowning out all sounds, preventing effective communication between the two.
Just as Lin Baici was about to press Xia Hongyao down and tell her not to move recklessly using body language, the sand beneath him suddenly gave way.
Lin Baici felt himself falling.
“Quicksand?”
Lin Baici was startled and instinctively pushed Xia Hongyao away, urging her to get to safety, while also commanding Muscle Buddha to co and pull him up.
But in the next instant, a pair of arms wrapped around his waist.
“It’s !”
The Golden Scorpion Queen shouted loudly.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Once the sand that had fallen with Lin Baici settled and no longer obscured the view, he saw it was a sand hole.
The wind blustered over the hole, whistling eerily as though the cries of countless migrating monsters.
This was a safe zone.
Xia Hongyao got up, crouching in the sand hole.
“Can you get my friends down here?”
Lin Baici inquired.
The hole wasn’t very large, but it could still squeeze in four or five people if necessary.
“Wait a mont!”
The Golden Scorpion Queen crawled out.
Seconds later, Hua Yue Yu, Jin Yingzhen, and Gu Qingqiu were all dragged down.
“Cough, cough!”
Hua Yue Yu coughed, disoriented from the fall.
Jin Yingzhen thought they were in danger and was sowhat panicked, while Gu Qingqiu, after falling, imdiately crawled to a corner to stay on the move and make it harder for enemies to hit her.
As she dodged, she kept an eye on her surroundings and, upon seeing Lin Baici and Xia Hongyao, she felt a wave of relief.
With them around, she was safe.
The Golden Scorpion Queen ca back, waved her hand, and sand moved to cover the hole like a lid, turning this place into a safe nest.
“There’s a monster coming!”
Lin Baici looked up at the hole.
“A monster?”
The Golden Scorpion Queen concentrated and sensed carefully,
but she didn’t feel any powerful aura.
However, the Golden Scorpion Queen was also a cautious creature.
It emitted so mysterious sounds, akin to chanting spells.
At its feet, small scorpions, as long as a finger, suddenly appeared.
They quickly scurried out of the hole to scout for information.
[That is a very formidable monster.
If you go up there, your flesh will beco its fodder, and your soul will beco its plaything.]
“Is it a God?”
Lin Baici sat down.
[No!]
Eater God comnted: [Does it feel frustrating to see a feast in front of you yet be unable to partake?]
[Then strive hard to hunt, eat!
Eat!
Eat!
One day, you will be able to devour the entire world!]
Lin Baici wasn’t interested in devouring the world; he just disliked the feeling of having to hide, which made him feel very weak.
Becoming Dragon Level should allow him to travel freely among the various Divine Ruins, right?
According to the hierarchy established by the Jiuzhou Security Bureau for God Hunters, having Divine Grace ant being at Hungry Wolf Level.
Then, upon reaching five Divine Graces and as a main force, taking down three Divine Ruins, a God Hunter could be promoted from Hungry Wolf Level to Leopard Head.
Lin Baici had already conquered Dragon Temple Divine Ruins, Palm Harbor Divine Ruins, and played the master in a crazy maid ga at Dragon and Beauty Bar; he had t the standard.
Actually, that crazy maid was one of the Nine States’ seven great mysteries.
The gas she designed were far more difficult than an average Divine Ruins.
Generally, for most people, it takes at least three years to be promoted from the mont they beco a God Hunter to Leopard Head.
One reason is that Divine Grace is hard to co by, and another is that Divine Ruins are too dangerous.
No one would joke with their life.
Caution is key when exploring.
In Lin Baici’s case, encountering so many Divine Ruins and becoming contaminated with rules in less than three months was like he had offended Lady Luck herself.
Such bad luck was unmatched.
Lin Baici couldn’t even wait for the annual God Hunter License assessnt before he got promoted to Leopard Head.
Moving on, possessing ten Divine Graces and as a main force, after conquering five more Divine Ruins, one could be promoted to Violent Bear Level.
At Lin Baici’s pace, he estimated that he could confidently claim the Violent Bear title within a year.
Of course, if Lin Baici was daring enough to explore three Divine Ruins that had existed for over ten years, and still co back alive with valuable intelligence, he could be directly promoted to Lion King.
If he single-handedly conquered five Divine Ruins, he would also qualify for a direct promotion to Lion King.
