Chapter 478: Chapter 360 Practicing Skills, Mutant Curse!_1
The next day, after sending Yao Zhixue off on the high-speed train back to Chang’an City, Zheng Cheng and Cai Ji embarked on the road to level up.
Cai Ji was leveling up, whereas Zheng Cheng himself was preparing to find suitable wild monsters to practice and improve his skill proficiency.
A few days later, their figures appeared in an Underground Labyrinth.
Located in the northern suburbs of Beijing, the Underground Labyrinth was home to a large number of wild creatures.
The Underground Labyrinth had nine levels, each with numerous Territory’s Hearts, passively summoning corresponding plane Monsters.
It was also one of the hottest spots for Professionists in the Beijing region to level up.
Because of the orders from the Elders Council and the Professional Guild, some powerful Professionists would not actively destroy the Territory’s Hearts.
They maintained it to ensure there were always plenty of wild monsters for lower-level Professionists to level up with.
Perching on Zheng Cheng’s shoulder, Cai Ji said, “Brother Cheng, do you remember Brother Huang Jiu?”
“I do, what about him?”
“During the three years we were in Spirit Charm Blessed Land, Brother Huang Jiu’s daughter, Huang Yuyao, came back. She sent me a few messages, but we missed them because we were inside Spirit Charm Blessed Land at the time.”
Cai Ji continued, “After we came out of the Spirit Charm Blessed Land, I went through reincarnation. When we have some free time, let’s go give Brother Huang Jiu’s relics to his daughter.”
“Sure.”
Zheng Cheng nodded, three years ago… no, it was a few months ago, Brother Huang Jiu who had accompanied them died under a surprise attack in conjunction with the Fallen Ones and Eagle Nation.
Before dying, he had entrusted them to give his relics to his daughter, Huang Yuyao.
Unfortunately, she wasn’t there at the time, and then Zheng Cheng and the others entered the Spirit Charm Blessed Land.
What they thought would be just over a month was, in fact, a full three years for ordinary people like Huang Yuyao!
He wondered if Huang Yuyao, the archaeologist, was free now.
Soon, they arrived at the first level of the Underground Labyrinth.
Here the level of the underground creatures was around LV20, consisting of Underground Spiders. Sensing the presence of Zheng Cheng and Cai Ji, they quickly surrounded them.
Zheng Cheng didn’t want to entangle with these creatures, but instead grabbed Cai Ji and dashed towards the second level of the Underground Labyrinth.
The size of the Underground Labyrinth was massive, and the distance from the first level to the second alone covered hundreds of meters. It was rare to encounter other people.
Their goal was to find humanoid monsters, to level up while increasing skill proficiency.
On the third level of the Underground Labyrinth were Bear Goblins, humanoid monsters with an average level of around LV45.
“Acute Gastroenteritis Instant Eruption Technique!”
In front of one man and one… no, one man and one pheasant, seven or eight originally ferocious Bear Goblins suddenly clutched their stomachs and screamed in agony.
Now with a Spiritual Attribute as high as over 700 points, Zheng Cheng’s strength was more than ten times that of the Bear Goblins.
One use of the Acute Gastroenteritis Instant Eruption Technique instantly affected the group of Bear Goblins. Given their preference for eating rotten flesh, they all fell to the ground screaming the next moment.
A number of Bear Goblins continued to erupt, screaming as torrents of thick blood spewed out.
“Damn…”
Seeing such a misery, Cai Ji immediately widened his eyes.
It was lucky they had Zheng Cheng’s Penicillin Parasite Body Shield to isolate them from the air; otherwise, Cai Ji would have vomited the centenarian meat he had eaten days before.
Even so, he quickly closed his eyes, not daring to look anymore.
Still, the screams of Bear Goblins filled his ears.
Another large group of Bear Goblins charged over, and another shot of Acute Gastroenteritis Instant Eruption Technique was unleashed.
His Acute Gastroenteritis Instant Eruption Technique was already at LV5, just a bit more to reach LV6.
He wondered what kind of special features it would have at that time?
In addition…
Zheng Cheng launched the Adrenaline Excitement Technique.
“Whoa-la-la!”
“Gaw-wa!”
A group of Bear Goblins that were lying on the ground erupting suddenly screamed and, despite their difficulty and stickiness, struggled to their feet and charged furiously towards them, ignoring the blood gushing from their legs.
The Adrenaline Excitement Technique was also close to reaching LV3, and he was looking forward to the features it would awaken at that level.
“Mental Confusion Technique!”
This recent Mutant Ability showed its sharp fangs in this moment.
The first Bear Goblin that was charging at Zheng Cheng suddenly turned around with a screech and hit another of its kin on the head with a Wolf Fang Club.
This Bear Goblin immediately screamed in response and started to fight back against the attacker.
“Mental Confusion Technique!”
“Mental Confusion Technique!”
“Mental Confusion Technique!”
With the blessing of Divinity, Zheng Cheng could cast skills almost instantaneously, with no cooldown to speak of.
Soon, among this group of Bear Goblins, more than a dozen started to fight each other.
Acute Gastroenteritis Instant Eruption Technique.
Adrenaline Excitement Technique.
Mental Confusion Technique.
These three distinctly different abilities produced such strange effects.
Dozens of Bear Goblins screamed and erupted while furiously fighting their own kind.
Clashing together, they attacked each other with Wolf Fang Clubs, teeth, and claws, striking fiercely.
Shrieks, roars, and the sound of tearing at flesh continuously filled the air, akin to Hell itself.
Hearing the screams nearby, Cai Ji slowly opened his eyes, only to jump in fright at the scene before him.
“Gurgle… Brother Cheng, you’re truly incredible!”
Dozens of Bear Goblins struggled under the effects of three distinct Mutant Abilities, and Zheng Cheng experimented with a few more skills.
