I Am The Only Top-up Player - Chapter 36
Chapter 36 The Glowing Mutant Crystal Startles the Sea Dragon!
Moonlight covered the entire land as night
fell.
Everything outside the forest was chirping, unlike the silence within the forest.
One could not even hear the sound from a wild beast.
It was dark all around and the mutant crystals were still nowhere to be found.
Su Hao and Qin Shuang, however, had arrived at a nearby dark cave.
Qin Shuang stood in front of it with hesitation, for it was too dark inside and it was difficult to see anything clearly.
At that moment, she remembered that she still had the Holy Light Torch, which enabled her to see everything within a one-meter radius as long as it was lit.
Water could be heard dripping inside the cave, along with a near-imperceptible sound of breathing
Qin Shuang lowered her voice and asked tentatively, “Should we go in and take a look?”
Su Hao replied, “Yes.”
Qin Shuang then said proudly.
“Sure thing. I’m telling you, you’re lucky that I came along with you!” Qin Shuang said proudly and immediately lowered her head to pick up the Holy Light Torch that she brought with her.
The Holy Light Torch could illuminate everything within a one-meter radius when
lit.
She rubbed it with an ignition stone and immediately lit a small flame, which flickered and began to burn.
Then, she placed the torch on top of the flame. Just like that, the Holy Light Torch ignited and a head of flames appeared in her field of vision.
Everything that was dark before was now illuminated by Qin Shuang’s Holy Light Torch, which lit up the cave and enabled everything within it to be seen in clear view.
At that moment, she looked up in a rather smug expression because she was expecting to see Su Hao following behind her.
As soon as she looked up, however, she realized that Su Hao’s figure had long disappeared!
She immediately raised the Holy Light Torch and looked ahead.
Su Hao had already walked about 10 meters further!
Upon seeing that, she could not help but complain to herself about his utter disregard of life!
He really was putting his life at risk, and he showed a complete lack of manners when he just left without having any intention of waiting for him!
With that thought, she shouted anxiously, “Hey, Su Hao! Wait for me! Look, I have a Holy Light Torch that can light up the darkness!”
The two of them walked one after another in the cave !
Qin Shuang shone the torch around, but not a single crystal was found after half an hour’s search.
Just when she thought that there would not be a single crystal in the cave, the light from her torch shone on a crystal that was stuck inside a crack in the rock wall!
In her excitement, she called out in a low voice, “Hey, Su Hao! I found the mutant crystal!” She then stretched out his hand.
Su Hao was walking in front, and when he heard that, he became alert at once and turned around to grab her wrist.
“Stop! Don’t take it!”
Alas, it was too late!
She had already picked up the crystal when he reached for her wrist.
When she saw how he reacted, she blinked her eyes and said with a cheeky smile, “What’s the matter? Are you going to fight over the crystal with me? Who told you to walk in without waiting for me? You deserve
it.”
The mutant crystal in her hand lit up all of a sudden as soon as she spoke.!
Colorful lights immediately flowed out of the mutant crystal, and soon, the entire cave was filled with beautiful lights.
However, things were not as simple as it seemed, for Su Hao had also made the same mistake because in his previous life.
Mutant crystals should never be picked up with one’s bare hands!
Instead, there was a special method that should be used to pick them so they would not awaken the beasts that were guarding the mutant crystals.
Unfortunately, it was all too late!
Colorful lights began shining everywhere!
A Sea Dragon emerged from the depths of the sea! It was ten or so meters long and one meter wide!
Seconds later, the huge Sea Dragon opened its fangs and roared while breathing out cold air!
The multi-colored mutant crystal was instantly sucked into the dragon’s stomach through it’s strong power!
At the same time, the cold aura instantly made both Qin Shuang and Su Hao unconsciously take a few steps back!
Upon seeing the situation, Su Hao’s eyes narrowed and said coldly.
“We’re in big trouble!”
The beast in front of him was a level 12 Sea Dragon.
He never thought that he would encounter the same Sea Dragon he previously encountered in the latter half of the forest.
It seemed that the events of that day were doomed to be full of danger from the start.
At the same time, Qin Shuang’s eyes lit up when she saw the Sea Dragon.
She felt that she had to prove her strength to Su Hao.
The Sea Dragon was a level 12 creature, which was only two levels higher than her White Unicorn
She felt confident about dealing with it!
With that thought in mind, she mounted herself on the back of the White Unicorn. All her White Unicorns then leapt toward the Sea Dragon at the same time!
A level 12 Sea Dragon could devour countless species that were lower in level than it, including humans of all levels.
Qin Shuang did not know anything about that!
As she was about five meters away from the Sea Dragon, she jumped off her unicorn, drew a small knife from her waist and prepared to attack the Sea Dragon!
The next second, the dragon’s tail appeared from the bottom of the sea and swung at her without waiting for her to get close!
“AGH!”
The Sea Dragon’s tail whacked her spine.
Smack!
Crash!
In less than a second, Qin Shuang was swept away by the Sea Dragon’s tail and directly smashed into the rock wall!
Su Hao’s eyes narrowed when he saw the whole process.
He did not want to alarm the monster at that time, for he already knew the way to harvest mutant crystals. Unfortunately, he had no choice but to fight because the monster had been alerted.
With that thought, he immediately shouted, “Sacred Night Bugs!”
As soon as the voice fell, more than 300,000 Sacred Night Bugs flew toward the Sea Dragon in a dense swarm!
The incensed Sea Dragon had no intention of retreating at all, and the moment the bugs charged at it, it also raised its giant tail and bared its fangs.
It attempted to swallow the swarm, and within seconds, the Sea Dragon had already bared its fangs to swallow the hundreds of thousands of bugs into its stomach. The act was as natural as taking a gentle breath!
Only a third of the 300,000 or so Sacred Night Bugs remained!
When Qin Shuang saw that scene as she got up from the ground, her eyes were filled with nothing but fear.
‘But that’s Su Hao’s troop type! Why would it happen that way?’ As soon as that thought popped in her mind, the wriggling Sea Dragon was visibly being eaten from the inside out!
The Sacred Night Bugs worms were devouring the Sea Dragon’s body from within! In just a few seconds, that huge and terrifying Sea Dragon was reduced to nothing in front of Qin Shuang’s eyes!
