Chapter 304: Chapter 64: Deep Sea Invasion, Sorrow’s Desolate Plight (Seeking Monthly Pass)
"Stop being so cryptic with me, so what exactly is this ’Yin God·Sorrow’ thing? Classify it for me. Family, genus, species, draw me a line."
Xu Shu looked at the "Little Yin Soldier" he had made into a kebab, suddenly deep in thought.
Inside the Narrow Sleeve Guanyin that he had merged with, there was Hei Shan, the "Yin God·Desire."
That being so, under the classification of Yin Gods, there must certainly be many other types, such as happiness, anger, sorrow, and joy, right?
This, the Tai Chu Scroll hadn’t done a thorough job of popularizing.
Truly frustrating.
For someone thirsty for knowledge, seeing just the tip of some hidden knowledge is like watching a gentle girl lift the hem of her short skirt.
Is it the parts that are revealed that we want to see?
Wrong!
It’s the parts that are yet to be revealed that we’re eager to see.
But Xu Shu had no choice, this might only expand if he encountered it in the future.
He continued on his journey:
Swipe!
An enlarged close-up appears before your eyes.
You see Qin’s body and those of two other men strewn about haphazardly, and from every hole in their mutilated corpses, red crayfish are scuttling in and out.
Their size isn’t large, around ten centimeters long, with large, hard pincers, either clutching chunks of fat and skin or bits of viscera and intestines, constantly putting them into their mouths, their mandibles nibbling and chewing, quite disgusting.
Of course, they’re still very weak now. Sёarᴄh the Nôvelƒire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
"Ah?"
Xu Shu feels a bit perplexed at once.
But he knows what erosion progress means.
The monsters in this world come from two sources.
One is from the Great Catastrophe Period, when they suddenly emerged with the changes of Earth Star.
The second type comes from mutations after undergoing erosion; these were originally Earth Star’s native creatures, from wild animals, insects, and even plants, including humans—any living thing can be eroded by curse power and turn into monsters.
It’s said that some powerful beings could even contaminate lifeless objects into monsters with the characteristics of living things.
The erosion progress represents the process by which an originally non-monstrous living entity is gradually converted into a monster by the curse power pollution.
Matching the erosion progress, there’s another value called the "Break Value." Basically, when an erosion progress surpasses about 30%, the creature can no longer maintain its original form, and its body begins to mutate—that’s the "Break Value."
When the Break Value starts to emerge, it means that this life form is saying goodbye to its original group and beginning its transformation into a monster.
This system was once used to detect the status of citizens a few years before the "Great Catastrophe" arrived, to determine if monsters invaded human society and to weed them out and kill them. It was a time of widespread panic.
Of course, it didn’t take long for this system to be abolished. Partly because most of the "electronic products" of technological civilization could no longer be used, and also because it was no longer necessary, as everyone’s hanging fears were completely dispelled—the Great Catastrophe had arrived.
Strictly speaking, the sickness of foster father Zhou Junjie could actually be seen as an external manifestation of "erosion progress."
So, these crayfish will begin to experience changes in their form before long until one day the curse power within them accumulates to a certain level, and they will break through the limit to become a First Rank exotic monster.
However, what puzzled Xu Shu wasn’t that.
What puzzled him was, how far away was the D8B3 safe zone from the sea? Where the heck did these deep sea crayfish come from?
The eastern part of the continent is the Sea of Death, with the closest safe zone to the sea being the D9 series situated on the farthest east amidst a complex array of zones.
Some safe zones were even established on islands in the sea.
Beyond the border line, if you keep heading east, you indeed enter the sea area.
It’s not possible that these crayfish swam back in retrograde, swimming up the river themselves, right?
How far D8B3 zone is from the Sea of Death, no one knows, because Earth Star has changed, but undoubtedly it is definitely more than a few hundred kilometers.
