C2397 Ancient Ruins of the Crocodile God
Open Budan City. Three miles east.
Ye Hong had checked the map before coming here. He knew this was a famous tourist spot in Budan City.
It was called the Ancient Ruins of the Crocodile God.
The faith here in South Continent was far more chaotic than in other continents.
The most primitive belief faction was the totem belief.
Whether it was in ancient times or today, every tribe in South Continent had their own totem that they worshiped.
The previous totem of the State of Dawang, which was the Gu Dawang Tribe, was a giant crocodile, and its local name was the Crocodile God.
Because of this, there were a lot of crocodiles living in the Kai Bu River outside of Kai Bu Dan City.
According to the local beliefs, no one was allowed to hurt these crocodiles.
The ancient site of the Crocodile God was built next to the Kabudan River. It was a huge building with the body of an alligator and the face of a human.
However, as the environment worsened in recent years, the desert gradually buried the Ancient Land of the Crocodile God. Kabutan City also gave up on the Ancient Land of the Crocodile God and treated it as a tourist attraction.
Of course, now that the Strange Beast ran amok, there were no tourists coming here.
When Ye Hong and the others followed the traces of the beast tide and found this place, they discovered that the surroundings were silent.
The human face part of the alligator human-faced figure was blurry due to the long period of erosion, and only its hideous body was left.
Even so, this part of the body was nearly a hundred meters long, and it was more than ten stories tall.
"Let's go, let's go in and take a look."
Ye Hong glanced at the overly quiet Abutu Pill River and exchanged glances with everyone. He revealed a mysterious smile in his heart. He lifted his foot and entered the interior of the building of the Ancient Land of Crocodile.
The intersection was below the human face part. It was very easy to find it.
Although the main door was buried in yellow sand, how could it stop a group of Cultivator of Ancient Taoism Martial Arts?
He used a little trick and easily cleaned up the yellow sand, revealing the dark passage.
Walking into the passage, his eyes turned dark.
Because he had been abandoned for too long, his surroundings were filled with an unpleasant smell.
However, the people with sharp senses could smell something different in the air.
"It is indeed inside."
Ye Hong smiled and said something that everyone could understand. He took the lead and walked forward.
In the dim environment, perhaps everyone had ways to scout the way, but it was not as convenient as Ye Hong's sharp eyes.
Ding! Exploring the dark environment, night vision + 1!"
Everyone was surprised to find that Ye Hong seemed to be walking in the daytime, leading the way without any hindrance.
While marveling at Ye Hong's terrifying sight, he also raised his heels.
The deeper they went, the more unpleasant the air became.
After walking down about three steps, a dark hall appeared in front of everyone.
The hall was filled with yellow stone coffins. Every stone coffin was covered with unique local decorations.
In the darkness, a pair of huge eyes that looked like lanterns were silently watching them.
The eyes were filled with a fiendish aura, but there was no lack of intelligence.
Ye Hong knew that the target he and the others were looking for was this fellow.
"Wheeze! Wheeze!"
The existence in the darkness let out a deep and rhythmic roar that seemed to contain some sort of rhythm.
At the same time, in the Abbud Pill River outside the ancient site.
The originally calm surface of the river started to surge as huge crocodiles crawled out from below.
These crocodiles' bodies were stiff, and their eyes were dull, as if they had lost their souls.
One crocodile after another crawled into the ancient ruins.
Very quickly, Ye Hong and the others noticed the unusual movement behind them.
When they looked back, they found that the path they came from was cut off by the alligators.
However, there was no change in their expressions.
Because all of this was within their expectations.
Before entering the ancient site, everyone discovered the abnormality within the Abbud Pill River.
According to the information, they did not see a single crocodile that normally lived. It was very obvious that there was a problem.
At this moment, the enormous creature in the darkness slowly approached everyone.
As it approached, a huge crocodile's body appeared before everyone's eyes.
It was a gray crocodile that was more than five meters long and two meters tall.
It opened its bloody mouth slightly, and sticky saliva dripped down from it continuously, giving off a strong stench.
Above the evil eye was a fist-sized gray crystal embedded in the flesh.
In the dim environment, there was a strange glow from time to time.
"Ding! Activating Grandmaster Level Discerning Ability, activating proficient-level intelligence gathering ability, activating proficient-level archive management ability, triggering beginner-level otherworldly knowledge. ...
Target Realm Estimated: Close to Ancient Taoism Martial Arts Stage.
Target's current characteristics: 1, high-speed growth, 2, parasitism of the body, 3, aura of a leader.
Ye Hong couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
As the number of Strange Beasts he came into contact with increased, the amount of information he could see also increased.
It was obvious that this big fellow in front of them had two additional characteristics compared to the Strange Beasts they encountered before.
He quickly looked at the smaller crocodiles behind him and discovered that they did not have the characteristics of medicinal Strange Beasts on their bodies.
In other words, the only one that was parasitized was the largest crocodile.2
Obviously, after being parasitized, this crocodile had a higher intelligence and commanding ability.
And these normal alligators that were originally living in the Kabudam River were controlled by this alligator leader due to the unique characteristic of the leader's aura.
With this analysis, the beast tide that attacked the city of Kabutan was most likely planned by this Giant Alligator leader!
Even the quiet environment outside the city had been a scheme that it had specially invited its master into the trap.
This fellow's intelligence was not to be underestimated.
The alligator leader roared once again, and the alligators surrounding Ye Hong and the others rushed forward.
One after another, bloody mouths pounced towards the group mercilessly.
Unfortunately, they all bit onto the steel plate this time.
The five Cultivator of Ancient Taoism Martial Arts attacked at almost the same time.
A sharp and violent aura filled the hall.
The crocodiles had just taken a step when they died on the spot.
However, their consciousness was completely controlled by the crocodile leader, and they didn't know how to retreat. They continued to charge fearlessly.
The Blue-Brow Spiritual Master frowned slightly and looked coldly at the Giant Alligator Chief.
"Capture the enemy first. Capture the king first.
Sword, go!"
The wooden sword in his hand flew out, like a shooting star in the dark night.
"Roar -"
With a shrill roar, the alligator leader fell to the ground.
Ye Hong's eyes twitched as he looked at the wooden sword that flew back to Green Brow Spiritual Master's hand.
The flying sword looked simple, but it penetrated the alligator leader's body dozens of times in an instant.
The Giant Alligator Leader looked perfectly fine on the outside, but its internal organs were already riddled with holes, and it could not be any more dead.
This Giant Alligator Leader was close to Gu Dao Wu's level, but it was easily killed by Qing Mei. Qing Mei's strength could be seen from this.
In the reaction of the others, Martial Arts Fanatic and Ge Dan looked at each other and smiled helplessly.
Only Sima Zhengming was expressionless, and even a little disdainful.
