It turns out that, as humans, we may all suffer from some degree of megalophobia, such as being afraid of big idiots... ah, no, being afraid of creatures that are much taller and larger than ourselves.
At least the moment this ugly worm appeared, it made Su Lin and the other two feel a little uneasy.
"How disgusting."
Looking at the drooling monster with its sharp mouth exposed, Lin Yue frowned and couldn't help but mutter a complaint.
"To be honest, that's true."
Tang Shuang echoed with a look of disgust.
Su Lin didn't say anything; she kept her complaints to herself.
Is there something wrong with "natural justice," or rather, with this damn world? Why is it that every time we encounter a superhuman enemy, their image is always so terrible?
Over the past three years, as the "Snake Ring" representative, she has traveled to many cities and states, large and small. This is not the first time she has encountered such a situation, and she can even say that she is somewhat used to it. In contrast, Tang Shuang and Lin Yue have not gone out much, after all, they are the two giants of Night Sin City.
It was only recently, when they had some free time, that the three girls were able to form a small travel group and go on a trip together to commemorate the days when they spent alone together in their empty rooms when Xu Shi went to the Hualan Empire.
You didn't take us with you! We're not taking you this time either! Humph!
Well, I've gone off on a tangent.
All the issues mentioned above can be discussed later. The real problem is, can't these monsters at least not look so unpleasant?
Su Lin still remembered the two city-states she had visited before, "Polar Night Ice City" and "Misty Rain City". Without exception, she encountered danger in both. The former was a strange snow monster, and the latter was a giant catfish with three heads.
Although the dangers were completely averted, the images of the two monsters remained stuck in her mind, refusing to leave, and she almost had nightmares.
This is why she doesn't want to go to places like the water towns of southern Xinjiang or the icy plains of northern Xinjiang; she'd probably get PTSD if she went there.
Of course, you can't say that reason directly, that would be too embarrassing.
In any case, this stereotype had taken root in her mind—especially after the young master showed her the image of the "Sea God" after returning from the Hualan Empire, which made her even more convinced of it.
"A sand-chirping insect at the Breaking Illusion Realm?"
Seeing this thing suddenly emerge from the sand, the Western Region Wolf King Mosuo frowned.
Su Lin and the other outsiders might not know, but how could he not know?
The sand-singing insect is strong because it lives in groups; it is very weak when picked up alone. A cultivator with some strength could crush it with one stomp. I have never heard of such a creature being able to cultivate to the Breaking Illusion Realm in all these years!
You must understand that he is a regional overlord, but he is only at the peak of the Breaking Illusion Realm. You can't compare the two of us, can you?
What's even stranger is that he had no prior knowledge of the sudden appearance of such a powerful thing.
This is just too embarrassing! Especially when outsiders come to inspect the place; they're going to lose all face...
"Don't underestimate your opponent."
After feeling disgusted, Su Lin still had to get down to business. Looking at the enormous thing in front of her, Su Lin's expression turned serious.
She could also sense the powerful aura emanating from the other person; it was actually S-rank? Converted to the ranking system of the Azure Cloud Immortal Realm, that's the Breaking Illusion Realm, practically on par with Mosuo...
And that's not all.
Over the past few years, she has learned a lot from SS-level powerhouses, so she is very clear about the difference between the two levels. Even if her aura is not always obvious, those subtle differences cannot be hidden from her.
The crickets chirping in front of me also seemed to faintly possess...
Ugh, this is awful!
Despite his outwardly calm demeanor, Director Su was inwardly furious. "I came here for a vacation to heal my wounds, not to rub salt into them!"
"Then let's get started!"
Tang Shuang was even more impatient than her. As she spoke, she activated the power field and rushed forward. With a flick of her wrist, several small metal balls flew out of her hand and headed straight for the sand cricket's face.
Boom boom boom—
The metal ball, about the size of a ping-pong ball, emitted terrifyingly strong energy, causing a series of explosions that instantly created a towering sandstorm.
Before the sandstorm had even subsided, the giant sandworms emitted a sharp, explosive cry.
Those with a slightly higher level of cultivation will not have their vision obstructed by the sand and dust, and can clearly see the monster twitching and struggling in place due to pain.
Just a few explosions left it with numerous wounds of varying sizes and depths, spurting out yellowish blood mist.
This isn't because the Sandworm species is weak; it's actually quite tough and resilient. Or rather, high health and defense are common advantages of large monsters.
It's just that what Tang Shuang threw was too powerful.
What appears to be an ordinary metal ball is actually Jiang Chengcheng's masterpiece—the Second Madam is very interested in customizing equipment for each person to maximize their own supernatural abilities.
It's fine for others, but it's a bit different for Governor Tang... Her ability is quite special. If it's a weapon, it has to be a consumable. You can't expect her to fight with firearms or melee weapons. It's not that it's impossible, but it would be difficult to unleash her "Touch of Calamity".
That's why these small metal spheres came into being—the weapon is called "Cloud Glass," and it contains an extremely high concentration of "rust mist" essence.
When compressed to a certain degree, the power released by "Rust Fog" is comparable to that of a small nuclear bomb. Even if used directly, it is a highly dangerous tool with extremely high lethality.
So, what would happen if an explosive that was already highly unstable were given explosive power again?
