Chapter 49
: Devouring Corpse Salamanders Alive!
A burning pain shot through my palm.
That tiny, palm-sized scale now resembled a red-hot iron, radiating a chilling heat.
Its entire body has an eerie dark gold color, and its edges are as sharp as knives.
Just by holding it in his hand, it had already cut through Jiang Han's palm of his tactical glove, greedily sucking his blood.
"Cough cough..."
Jiang Han knelt on the drilling platform, coughing violently.
With each breath, my lungs felt like they were filled with sand, causing a sharp, stinging pain.
That was a side effect of forcibly activating "Berserk Mode" underwater, and also an internal injury caused by the heartbeat of that ancestral dragon.
"Jiang Han! Medical team! Quickly, get the medical team!"
Li Zhenhua's roar exploded in the earpiece, carrying the trembling of someone who had survived a disaster.
The surrounding special forces soldiers rushed forward, trying to help this "god-like man" who had just crawled out of hell.
But Jiang Han suddenly raised one hand.
The hand, stained with black blood and mud, made a grasping motion in the air.
"Don't come any closer."
His voice was hoarse and cold.
It carried with it a lingering, intense, and suffocating aura of malevolence.
Several special forces soldiers froze on the spot, feeling a chill run down their spines, as if they were being watched by a ferocious beast that was ready to devour them.
Whoosh—!
Just then, the water beneath the platform suddenly exploded.
Two enormous black shadows, accompanied by panicked splashes of water, suddenly leaped out of the water.
They're the Black and White Duo!
These two prehistoric behemoths, who had been terrified by the Ancestral Dragon, finally dared to show their faces.
They did not escape far.
Because of the "blood pact" that was ingrained in their bones, they dared not stray too far from Jiang Han.
At this moment, the White Fiend (White Scale Corpse Dragon) was actually carrying something in its mouth.
It was a strange fish that was three meters long.
Its entire body is a rotten grayish-white color, without scales, and its skin is covered with disgusting pustules.
The most terrifying part is its head.
Above that flat, large mouth was a distorted face that resembled that of a human baby!
"That's... a demon-faced corpse salamander?!"
Dr. William, who was watching the surveillance footage from a distance, exclaimed in shock, "This is a highly poisonous creature that only exists in ancient texts! It's said to have grown by feeding on human flesh!"
Bai Sha carefully swam to the edge of the platform.
It lowered its massive body as much as possible, like a lapdog offering a treasure, and gently pushed the corpse salamander, which was still writhing wildly and emitting "waa waa" baby cries, in front of Jiang Han.
It's trying to please.
It knew that its attempt to run away might have angered this evil star.
So it went to the edge of the abyss and caught this "supplement".
The live stream chat exploded with comments.
Holy crap! This fish looks so creepy! And that human face is crying!
[Ugh! This is for Jiang Shen?! Who could possibly eat this?!]
[White Demon: Master, eat it while it's hot, it's very nutritious!]
[Don't disgust me, upstairs! This thing looks poisonous!]
Jiang Han frowned slightly as he looked at the corpse salamander at his feet, which was still oozing yellow fluid.
But he did not refuse.
Because his body has indeed reached its limit.
While the Qilin bloodline is powerful, its consumption is also terrifying.
He urgently needs a high-energy boost.
"You're quite sensible."
Jiang Han said coldly.
next second.
Under the horrified gaze of hundreds of millions of viewers across the internet.
He did not use a knife.
Instead, he extended his left hand, which was adorned with the [Black Gold Ghost Claw], and with his five fingers hooked, he plunged it into the abdomen of the corpse salamander!
puff!
Black blood splattered.
The eerie face let out a piercing scream before finally dying.
Jiang Han, expressionless, rummaged through the salamander's slimy and disgusting internal organs for a while.
then.
It pulled outwards suddenly!
He forcefully pulled out a fist-sized, jet-black sphere that emitted a strong, fishy stench.
That is the "inner core" of the corpse salamander.
That is also where its essence lies.
[Holy crap! What is Jiang Shen going to do?]
"No way! That thing looks even more disgusting than shit!"
Stop! People will die!
Jiang Han completely ignored the screams from the comments section.
He looked at the inner core in his hand, a red light flashing in his eyes.
Open your mouth.
Swallow it in one gulp!
Gudong!
Adam's apple bobbed.
He swallowed the deadly poison pill, which was enough to kill an elephant.
boom!
A surge of scalding heat exploded in my stomach.
Then it transformed into countless tiny warm currents, frantically drilling into his damaged meridians and bones.
Her originally pale face regained a rosy hue at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Even the wound on his palm, which had been cut by the Reverse Scale, began to stop bleeding and even slowly healed under the domineering medicinal power.
"call……"
Jiang Han exhaled a breath of stale air.
The breath carried a faint wisp of black mist, emitting a hissing, corrosive sound in the air.
He then kicked the hollowed-out corpse of the salamander back into the water.
"This is a reward for you."
Whoosh!
The Black and White Duo, who had been drooling with desire, pounced on them instantly.
The two giant beasts were tearing at the corpse in the water, their black blood staining the surface, creating an extremely bloody and brutal scene.
Just then.
buzzing-
A faint motor sound came from above.
That was a specially made drone belonging to the production team, trying to zoom in and give Jiang Han a close-up of his face.
The white demon, who was eating, seemed to be disturbed by the noise.
Or perhaps it had just eaten blood, which triggered its inherent ferocity.
It suddenly leaped out of the water, its long neck like a white lightning bolt, and opened its blood-red maw, full of bits of flesh and black blood, to bite at the drone in the air!
"ah!!!"
The director in charge of operating the drone screamed in fright and almost dropped the remote control in his hand.
The viewers in front of the screen felt a sudden darkness before their eyes.
A gaping maw filled with fangs instantly filled the entire screen.
The overwhelming sense of suffocation and death made countless people fall off their chairs in fright.
This is not a cute pet at all!
This is a man-eating monster!
The drone was about to be scrapped.
At the critical moment.
A dark figure leaped up from the platform.
There were no fancy moves.
Only one foot, clad in a tactical boot, slammed down with tremendous force onto Bai Sha's skull!
boom! ! !
A dull thud that made your teeth ache.
The massive head of the White Demon was abruptly brought to a stop less than half a meter from the drone!
The immense impact caused its eyeballs to bulge out, and its jawbone cracked.
"roar……"
It let out a pitiful whimper, and its massive body crashed heavily back into the water, creating waves several meters high.
Jiang Han placed one foot on the dragon head.
His body rose and fell with the waves, yet remained as steady as Mount Tai.
He had his hands in his pockets and stared coldly at the camera.
Deep within those dark eyes, it seemed as if two bottomless, icy pools were hidden.
"It seems some people have misunderstood something."
Jiang Han's voice was very soft, yet it was clearly transmitted around the world through the recording equipment.
He slightly increased the pressure on his feet.
The white monster convulsed in pain, but dared not resist. It could only obediently press its head against the water's surface, letting this human trample on its dignity.
"Put away your ridiculous 'cute pet' filters."
"And stop shouting things like 'So cute' or 'I want to raise it'."
Jiang Han bent down, the scabbard of the black gold ancient sword gently patting Bai Sha's hard, iron-like scales, making a crisp, tinkling sound.
"They are predators at the top of the food chain."
"It's a killing machine."
"If I hadn't stepped on it..."
Jiang Han paused, a bloodthirsty sneer curling at the corner of his lips.
"Right now, they should be chewing up your bones and swallowing them."
"I've got it."
"There are no fairy tales here."
"The only option is... to survive."
Done.
He stopped looking at the camera.
Instead, he turned to look at the huge rock wall not far away.
That place is the only passage connecting the Kunlun Mountain Death Valley to the outside world.
It is also the place that Bureau 749 calls "Dragon Gate".
Although the ancestral dragon was sealed away just now.
But he could sense it.
That terrifying being is turning over at the bottom of the abyss.
The suffocating stench of death was seeping up little by little through the cracks in the rocks.
[System Warning: Countdown to Corpse Qi Outbreak: 24 hours!]
[Host, please evacuate immediately! Otherwise you will be assimilated into a corpse demon!]
Jiang Han pressed down on the earpiece, his tone leaving no room for argument:
"General Li."
"If we don't want this place to become another Chernobyl."
"Blow open the passage immediately."
"Now!"
