Chapter 402: Surprise, Surprise!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Just as Wang Mang was about to leave, he inadvertently spotted a three-meter-tall demon embryo. It looked like a rock and was unremarkable.
Moreover, compared to the aura emitted by the other demon embryos, this demon embryo had restrained its aura. If he had not been looking closely, he would have treated it as a rock.
He swam toward the rock-like demon embryo.
Right at this moment, the small demon embryo started to tremble and pleaded fearfully, “Senior, please let me go! I’m still very young!”
“Big or small, meat is meat. Unfortunately, the big one ran away,” Wang Mang replied helplessly.
“Senior, it went deep into the mud.”
“You can find him if you dig into the mud!”
Wang Mang’s eyes lit up when he heard this.
Without another word, Wang Mang plunged into the mud, and to his surprise, he saw the golden demon embryo less than ten meters underground.
It immediately fled in fear, but was caught by Wang Mang before it got very far. He carried it in his mouth as he surfaced from the mud.
“Let me go, Senior, let me go!”
“Senior! I’m still a child! Please spare my life!”
Wang Mang was speechless. This fellow must have heard what the other demon embryo said. He ignored it and swallowed it whole.
[Ding! Congratulations! The host has devoured a half-step land immortal-level Flame Tiger demon embryo. Obtained 15 billion evolution value!]
[Ding! Evolution requirements met. Begin evolution?]
“No!”
Before he left, Wang Mang put the little demon embryo into his storage space. Then, he emerged from the river.
The little zombie girl had not run away, and had kept her promise. Wang Mang was quite pleased by this.
At that moment, the little zombie girl saw Wang Mang and asked curiously, “Did you find the demon embryos you were looking for?”
Wang Mang chuckled and nodded.
“Do you know where else I can find demon embryos?”
The little zombie girl nodded slightly. After pondering for a while, she said in a low voice, “I’ve seen one another demon embryo, but I never dared to approach that one. The aura it exudes is too terrifying.”
Oh? There were more?
Wang Mang felt that this little zombie girl was his lucky charm. He suppressed his excitement and said, “Awesome! Can you take me there?”
“Don’t worry! Whether or not I find it, I won’t hurt you.”
The little zombie girl was convinced by Wang Mang’s kind appearance and gentle voice, so she happily agreed. Thus, the two set off again…
Half an hour later, they arrived at a huge construction site in the middle of the city. This was the site of a huge development project. Unfortunately, it had been abandoned due to the apocalypse.
As soon as he entered the construction site, Wang Mang spotted what he was looking for, a black demon embryo that was twenty meters tall.
This demon embryo exuded an extremely evil aura, which made Wang Mang’s heart palpitate.
Wang Mang was shocked.
Judging from this demon embryo’s aura, it had reached the land immortal level.
Thus was even more monstrous than the first demon embryo Wang Mang encountered. His expression turned grim.
At the same time, he quietly used his information detection skill.
[Target: Unknown]
[Type: Unknown]
[Level: Land Immortal]
[Achievement: Unknown]
Seeing this, Wang Mang was helpless. Even his information detection skill was useless in this case. All it did was confirm that this demon embryo had reached the level of a land immortal.
“How is it? Is this the demon embryo you’re looking for?”
At this moment, the little zombie girl whispered a question to Wang Mang.
Wang Mang nodded helplessly and whispered in response, “Yes, thank you, but let’s go.”
The zombie girl asked in confusion, “Why don’t you eat it?”
Wang Mang was about to reply, when he suddenly saw the demon embryo vibrate. Then, it flew toward him like a meteorite.
Wang Mang’s expression changed drastically at this sight, and he subconsciously grabbed the little zombie girl and retreated.
Boom!
A hundred-meter pit had been carved out where he had been standing just a few moments ago.
While Wang Mang was still in shock, a cold voice rang out from the demon embryo.
“Get lost!”
This enraged Wang Mang. He was being looked down upon by an unborn creature!
However, when he sensed the terrifying aura of the demon embryo, he felt a chill run down his spine, and he chose not to act rashly.
Wang Mang glared at the zombie girl before pulling her away.
After leaving, the little zombie girl looked enlightened.
“No wonder you didn’t eat it! You can’t beat it!”
“Cough cough, this is just temporary.”
Wang Mang was rather embarrassed.
However, he knew that he could even the odds. All he had to do was find a hidden place to evolve and advance to the land immortal level.
‘Hmph!’
‘An egg dares to look down on me?’
■Just you wait!’
Til come and settle the score with you when I become a land immortal!’
