Rogel’s three at tendrils held the black giant worm tightly, rendering it immobile.
[Evil Worm]
[Type: Monster]
[Quality: Common]
[Level: 2]
[Tier: Extraordinary]
[Explanation: A monster living in narrow caves with a strong burrowing ability. If you find it... it’s advisable to take a closer look around.]
Looking at the information in front of him, Rogel frowned.
He focused his gaze on the surrounding rock walls.
He saw that the surrounding rock walls were densely distributed with small holes resembling a honeycomb!
It triggered Rogel’s trypophobia.
No doubt, these were all created by the evil worms.
This also indirectly indicated that there were many such evil worm monsters like the one Rogel was currently holding!
If not for the Dark Concealnt Skill of the Dark Sea Hunter being in effect, it’s likely he would have been surrounded by a swarm of evil worms by now.
"It seems the difficulty of the Water Cave might be higher than I imagined."
Rogel thought to himself.
With the simultaneous exertion of the three at tendrils, the evil worm was instantly snapped into four pieces, becoming nourishnt for the Dark Sea Hunter.
Rogel continued onward.
This path was not vertically downward, but sloped and winding, which made Rogel quite uncomfortable.
The evil worm holes on the rock walls did not disappear.
Every so often, Rogel would encounter an evil worm.
Moreover, they were all at least level two.
It seems that only evil worms around level two can detect the presence of the Dark Sea Hunter.
[Your clone Dark Sea Hunter killed an evil worm, gaining combat experience.]
[Your clone Dark Sea Hunter killed an evil worm, gaining combat experience, and the level of Dark Sea Hunter increased.]
[You found Evil Worm Gut ×1.]
[...]
During the journey, there were also sudden attacks from evil worms erging from the rock walls.
However, under the overwhelming power of the Dark Sea Hunter, these evil worms posed no threat and were all turned into nourishnt for the clone.
The Dark Sea Hunter’s level also reached level six.
Rogel sensed a few subtle improvents in various aspects.
Then he focused on the recently dropped item.
[Evil Worm Gut]
[Type: Consumable]
[Quality: Green]
[Special Effect: Provides a small amount of pure energy and emits a scent that can attract evil worms for a period of ti.]
[Explanation: This is a tasty snack; it’s hard to imagine such a monster would produce such a delicacy, perhaps... stink to the extre might be fragrant?]
"..."
To be honest, Rogel just realized that this evil worm thing is indeed stinky.
Although he can actively receive so of the clone’s perception, he never receives perceptions during the Dark Sea Hunter’s feeding.
Fortunately, this thing wasn’t an active perception; the Dark Sea Hunter, being his clone, isn’t picky when it cos to food.
Whether it stinks or reeks, to the Dark Sea Hunter’s mouth, it’s all at.
No difference whatsoever.
As for the later effect...
This thing might have a good effect for luring monsters.
Rogel thought.
But when seeing the explanation, he suddenly felt a bit tempted.
Why not... give it a try?
Rogel hesitated...
A while later.
"..."
Rogel’s expression was a bit odd.
It clearly felt sowhat rank and fetid, yet it carried an oddly fresh scent, and was quite chewy, providing a rather unique experience.
Those who haven’t tasted it can’t imagine its taste.
It’s delicious, yet not quite.
Of course, Rogel only obtained the taste perception from the Dark Sea Hunter, he didn’t physically manifest it.
He wasn’t that twisted yet.
Eating the gut is fine, but gut sashimi? No way...
After satisfying his curiosity, Rogel lost interest in the thing.
[Your clone Dark Sea Hunter consud Evil Worm Gut and started emitting a special scent.]
[Male evil worm in the corner begins to stir...]
After the Dark Sea Hunter ate the Evil Worm Gut, a prompt erged.
Soon, evil worms started erging from the rock walls, madly lunging towards the Dark Sea Hunter.
Indeed, they ca charging, not attacking.
They seed to want to tightly coil around the Dark Sea Hunter, releasing so unspeakable desire.
After being wrapped by the Dark Sea Hunter’s tendrils, this evil worm even started writhing its body excitedly, seemingly enjoying it?
Almost as if saying, more, be rougher!
"Die!"
Rogel shuddered, unhesitantly slicing it into several segnts.
But, the evil worms were not just one; three more evil worms had already co following the scent.
[Your clone Dark Sea Hunter killed an evil worm, gaining combat experience.]
[Your clone Dark Sea Hunter killed an evil worm, gaining combat experience.]
[...]
The Dark Sea Hunter went berserk, the right serrated bone blade swung into a blur, killing these mindlessly crazed evil worms completely.
However, more evil worms were swarming from the back like moths to a fla.
Rogel had his scalp tingling.
This effect was too strong.
His brain processed rapidly for a mont, and Rogel turned around and fled.
Grinding mobs?
Grinding my ass!
These evil worms were too twisted, even killing them felt like rewarding them!
The Dark Sea Hunter’s tendrils flailed madly, speeding along the pathway.
Finally, after a wild dash, Rogel’s field of view suddenly broadened, becoming much more spacious.
The evil worms behind had also disappeared.
Maybe they couldn’t keep up, or perhaps the effect of the Evil Worm Gut had faded.
Rogel breathed a sigh of relief.
[Sea Cave, Layer 1]
[Gray Rock Node]
Upon seeing this prompt, Rogel knew he had finally reached the first layer of the Underwater Cave.
This also confird his thoughts.
The Harmony Cave indeed was divided into Land Cave and Underwater Cave sections.
But when he was enthusiastically swimming ahead, his expression froze instantly.
Dammit, why continue crawling through tunnels?
Indeed, though the area before Rogel was much more spacious, he was still in a large gray rock pathway.
Only the surrounding environnt was significantly broader, regarded as a branch node of the gray rock pathway.
Hence, the ga provided a prompt, calling this place Gray Rock Node.
Before him, five irregular dark tunnel mouths branched out.
Rogel felt a headache.
He really didn’t want to crawl through tunnels anymore.
This Sea Cave is truly botherso.
Moreover, after crawling for such a long ti, no treasure chest was to be found.
A horse needs grass too.
Yet, he could only eat gut.
Rogel griped internally.
Complaints aside, exploration had to continue.
He began observing the surrounding environnt.
This Gray Rock Node was quite spacious, and the Dark Sea Hunter’s vision couldn’t extend far enough; to see the entire place would require taking so steps.
"Treasure chest!"
Upon seeing the familiar outline, Rogel felt his DNA stirring, suddenly invigorated.
Nonetheless, as he approached the silver-edged treasure chest, he hesitated montarily.
The lesson from the last Box Puppy was still rembered vividly.
Thinking of this, Rogel squinted his eyes, cautiously creeping forward.
Once close enough to the treasure chest, Rogel attacked unhesitantly.
Thud.
The serrated bone blade pierced the treasure chest with a dull thud, but no other reaction.
It was a genuine treasure chest.
Rogel breathed a sigh of relief.
But, he soon discovered an issue.
... He didn’t have a key.
