“Could it be that big brother has mistaken the direction and fallen down?” Dumpling asked in surprise.
The others were also inexplicably shocked. Just beneath them was a super boss, tens of levels higher than the current player. What was different from before was that the boss had now awakened.
“It’s not that he made a wrong judgment, but that he has deduced something,” Sister Li noticed joy spreading across Li Yao’s face.
“Hmm, could there really be a way to capture this super boss as a pet? But how is that possible?” Feng Yi questioned, full of doubts.
Originally, the entire Moon Well was surrounded in a silver, translucent glow. However, this glow had been tainted black by fog. A giant hydra roared wildly, seemingly facing a great fear.
The multiple heads huddled together, shrouded in black fog.
“Stop guessing, just watch, I’ll be fine.”
“System: You’ve brought a mysterious and terrifying eyeball. Due to the existence of the eyeball, the four ancient god statues binding the Moon God have shattered. A force from another ancient god envelops the hydra, voraciously draining its accumulated power. The hydra has no means to resist and lets out a pain-filled cry.”
“You’re Godzilla, right? I can save you,” Li Yao shouted.
One of Godzilla’s heads suddenly turned to look at Li Yao, saying, “Weakling, get lost.”
“I can go, but are you sure you can?” Li Yao replied, with an ambiguous smile.
“It was you who brought this thing. Why?” Godzilla roared. “I will swallow you whole.”
Li Yao, on the contrary, did not back off. Instead, he swam up to Godzilla and said, “Here I am before you. Try to kill me. However, do you think you could live after killing me? I am just a pawn for some being. Do you dare to kill me?”
At this moment, the Ice Serpent’s head was already looming over Li Yao’s head. Li Yao could clearly feel an extremely terrifying aura. He was now at a dead-end.
Nothing could save him, not even the legendary invincible deterrent.
Invincible deterrent, like the Holy Shield, is relatively invincible. The so-called invincibility is effective against those who are of the same rank or a little higher.
If the difference in power levels is too vast, none of the skills can render you invincible.
Roar…
The Fire Serpent let out a sky-shaking roar, disappearing in the black fog, leaving behind the illusion of six identical heads. The Fire Serpent became sealed, and even the second head about to break through from its shoulder disappeared entirely.
Suddenly, the hydra’s aura significantly weakened. Li Yao checked its status; the multi-headed hydra had now become a level fifty boss.
The Ice Serpent stared angrily at Li Yao and finally didn’t take a bite, and said, “Worm, remove the eye of that being, and I will act as if nothing happened. I will spare your life.”
Li Yao, holding the Whirlwind Short Spear, pointed at the Ice Serpent and said, “You need to get one thing straight. It’s you who is pleading me, not me pleading for you. When did I ever say I needed your mercy? If you dare, take a bite.”
“Aren’t you afraid of death?” The Poison Serpent’s head also slithered closer, as if it was about to swallow Li Yao at any moment.
Li Yao sneered, “Don’t pretend. I represent that ancient and mysterious being. Even though he doesn’t care about my life or death, if you kill me, you’re challenging his authority, and at that time, your suffering will be a thousand or ten thousand times worse than death. Okay, let’s assume you dare to kill me. Then what? I am an adventurer who can be resurrected by the Soul Healer. You kill me once, and I’ll be back in a while to watch how you die.”
“You…” The Ice Serpent was furious. The remaining serpent heads exchanged glances as fear gradually spread in their eyes.
“How can you get this thing away?”
With a pop, the fifth head also disappeared, entering a sealed state. The hydra’s aura significantly weakened again, reducing it to the level forty.
“Quite simple, surrender to me.” Li Yao replied while releasing the capture skill.
A mental contract shrouded the remaining heads, which looked towards Li Yao in terror.
“Insect, die!” The Poison Serpent, as if insulted, rushed to bite Li Yao in a flash.
The elders who were watching the process all exclaimed. Even Li Yao was stunned for a moment. However, he didn’t dodge but continued to release the capture skill, trying to establish a pet contract.
Boom…
The Ice Serpent abruptly knocked the Poison Serpent away, saying, “Worm, do not challenge our limits. State your real condition.”
Snap…
The infuriated Poison Serpent let out an unwilling roar and was absorbed by the black fog. At this moment, only three heads remained, and the hydra had been reduced to level thirty.
“I’ve already said it, surrender or die.” Li Yao became anxious. He knew too well that the Mysterious Eye wouldn’t kill the hydra.
After all, the hydra was a pet of another ancient god, a pawn. Absorbing the hydra’s power could be considered accidental, but killing the hydra would definitely alert the other being.
The relationship between ancient gods is full of intrigue. None of them are easy to deal with.
“How can you prove that you are the envoy of this being instead of some lucky bastard?” The Ice Serpent questioned, a hint of struggle in its eyes. Facing the black fog extracting the power from its body, it dared not resist nor had any means to do so.
“On account of this.” Li Yao reached out and touched the Hydra’s head.
Life Deprivation!
Like the eyeball, the Touch of Darkness also released numerous black tentacles that attached to the Ice Serpent’s head. Suddenly, a pure force entered Li Yao’s body.
“Unhand me, I believe you.” The Ice Serpent looked at Li Yao with trepidation. “How can you make that being trust you so much, despite being so weak?”
“Because of this.” Li Yao pointed to his head after retracting the Touch of Darkness.
“You’re very courageous, also quite remarkable.” The Ice Serpent looked at the remaining heads. “We are willing to sign a contract to assist you in completing the mission entrusted to you by that being.”
Snap…
The third head of the multi-headed snake disappeared and entered the sealed state.
“Well then, don’t resist. If your number of heads lessen again, I may lose interest in nurturing you. I can always find another.” Li Yao felt his heart in his throat. If there is a delay, the Mysterious Eye will inevitably stop absorbing the hydra’s power, and his efforts would go in vain.
“Wait, are you really the envoy of that being?” The Dark Serpent was still skeptical.
Li Yao was losing his patience, but he put on a savage smile on his face instead and shouted, “If you dare to trick me, then prepare to die.”…
