Reincarnated As Mystic Tortoise: I Put All My Points In Defense - Chapter 30

Chapter 30 Everything Can Be Devoured

As Su Yu’s voice fell, countless stones fell from the rock wall and hit many people. After another round of chaos, the situation finally stabilized. Even so, Li Junhao’s men had suffered quite a few injuries.

Although they did not suffer as many casualties as Yang Wen’s team, their situation was not optimistic either. The two teams had lost in succession, making them feel a little embarrassed. After all, before they left, they had promised Xie Zhen Lin that they would definitely bring the turtle back. However, the turtle remained fine while they suffered many casualties.

“Captain Su, look at the current situation…”

Yang Wen and Li Junhao looked extremely embarrassed. As the City Lord’s guards, it was not like they had never fought against powerful demonic beasts before. Now, facing just a turtle, it had already caused them to fall and suffer heavy casualties. They could no longer hold onto their pride.

Su Yu consoled everyone, “Don’t blame yourself, captains. This turtle is really strange and beyond my expectations. In that case, we don’t have to fight it head-on.”

He waved the folding fan in his hand with a scheming look. “Now that things have come to this, we can only use that move. Let’s all retreat.”

“What’s going on?” Lin Xuan looked at the people who had suddenly left. He thought that they would continue to fight. After all, several people still had not made a move in the current situation. They would not give up so easily. Not to mention, they had suffered a lot this time. How could they bear with this?

No one saw that just as Su Yu was about to leave, he threw a bottle on the ground. The black liquid in it swam quickly, like an evil beast baring its fangs and brandishing its claws, eroding the surrounding land.

Lin Xuan felt that there was a problem. Just as he wondered what was wrong, countless flowers, grass, and trees withered at a speed visible to the naked eye as if all their vitality had been extracted. Even the earth was stained with an ominous color.

“So it was poison,” observed Lin Xuan, looking down at the soil gradually turning black. It was enough to show the power of the poison.

The black gas became thicker and thicker, spreading with the wind. The shadow of death covered the heads of all living creatures as if the god of death had descended and gradually swallowed them.

From others’ point of view, Lin Xuan was already surrounded by the poisonous gas and death was only a matter of time. If it was

before, he would definitely not be able to withstand such an environment. However, with the Imperishable Body, he could be immune to all poisons.

Even with this strange poison, his resistance level was still very high. Therefore, even if he got poisoned, not only did he not lose HP, but his Poison Resistance increased again.

He tried to swallow the black gas. He could devour anything, so this poison should not be problem.

[You have been poisoned. Poison Resistance

+30]

The system notification sounded in his mind. It was as if he had opened the door to a new

world.

‘What would happen if I devoured all the black gas?’ He became emboldened and relied on his thick health bar, strong defense, and the buff of the Invulnerable Body to devour the surrounding poisonous gas.

[You have been poisoned. Poison Resistance

+15]

[You have been poisoned. Poison Resistance

+20]

…

The people who had already retreated to a safe

place used binoculars to observe what was happening. They had taken antidotes in advance, so even if the poison gas got blown in this direction by the wind, it would not affect

them.

Previously, a single drop of it was enough to kill a sawtooth beast. Now that the entire bottle of extracted venom was thrown on the ground, the effect could be imagined.

“This poison is really powerful. That place is already a land of death.”

Even if the poisonous gas dissipated in the future, the soil would already be extremely toxic. The plants that would grow in the future would also be poisonous and no longer suitable for the survival of animals or demon beasts. One could see how great their action’s impact

was.

“Even if that turtle has Poison Resistance, it

can’t resist it. The only pity is that the turtle meat can’t be eaten anymore,” declared Su Yu, full of confidence. It was a rare poison he had carefully refined that could even poison a sixth-rank demonic beast. If one breathed in such a strong poison, their internal organs would be affected, with no way to remove the

poison.

“Captain Su, don’t worry. The city Lord won’t blame us for such a small matter.”

Su Yu paid attention to the movement in the distance and found that the black gas dissipated very quickly. He was a little confused and asked, “Why did it dissipate so

quickly?”

In his estimation, it should take at least 15 minutes for it to completely disappear. It was really unreasonable to think that it hadn’t taken so long.

The others didn’t take it to heart. “Maybe the

wind is too strong. We’re at an upwind position, so all the poisonous gas has been carried to the North.”

“The turtle must be completely cold by now.

Everyone put on your gas masks and prepare to go in to bring the turtle corpse back.” Although the turtle meat was now inedible, the turtle shell was still very useful to the city Lord. When they walked over to take a look, the

turtle’s limbs and head were all exposed. Its eyes were closed and it was no longer breathing. It was clearly completely dead. “As expected, he’s already dead.” “As expected of Captain Su. It’s all thanks to

this strange poison, or else we wouldn’t be able

to report to the city Lord.” In the face of everyone’s congratulations, Su

Yu smiled very modestly. “No, it’s all thanks to everyone’s efforts. If it weren’t for Captain Yang and Captain Li, who exhausted the beast’s

strength earlier, I wouldn’t have been able to succeed so easily.”

“What!” Yang Wen suddenly exclaimed, giving the crowd a shock.

Seeing his expression as if he had seen a ghost

while staring at the tortoise, Li Junhao asked, “Captain Yang, what’s wrong with you?” Yang Wen stuttered, “I… think… I saw this stinky turtle blinking at me just now…”
