I can bless thousands of magical powers.

Chapter 27 The Third Host
In the mountain forest shrouded in black fog, hundreds of villagers tightly surrounded the statue of the City God, with expressions of fear and despair on everyone's face.

The golden light emitted by the City God statue had now shrunk to an area of ​​twenty to thirty feet in radius.

Countless jackals, tigers and leopards materialized from the black fog outside the circle and continuously attacked the last line of defense.

Each leader has a ferocious look in his eyes, ready to devour someone!
Such a horrific scene made all the villagers who participated in the mountain road construction regret it to the extreme.

They should never, ever, go against the warnings and admonitions left by their ancestors. They were blinded by the money and food promised by Mr. Chen and went into the mountains to cut down trees and build roads, thus angering the evil spirits lurking in Qianfeng Mountain!

Seeing the black fog approaching, the villagers had no way to retreat and could only desperately climb onto the altar.

Treat the statue of the City God as the last straw.

Everyone was crying, begging, trampling on each other and even fighting.

Someone was accidentally pushed out of the area covered by the golden light, and then disappeared into the black fog with a wail.

At this point, everyone realized that the City God statue, whose light was becoming increasingly dim, was no longer able to protect them.

In the chaos, the statue fell from the altar.

The golden light disappeared in an instant.

The ferocious black fog beasts all around roared in unison and pounced on the villagers who were in chaos.

Wisps of mist quickly penetrated into their noses, mouths and ears.

These villagers, whose minds had already collapsed, suddenly roared like wild beasts. Their eyes turned bloodshot and they hugged their companions and scratched and bit each other.

With skin torn and blood splattered, it was a scene from hell!

The statue of the City God that was stepped on by the villagers had cracks on its surface, and golden light was gushing out from countless cracks.

boom!
Zhang Yuan, who was a mile away, saw a thick beam of golden light suddenly rising into the sky.

The golden light broke through the black fog and rushed straight into the sky!

However, this beam of light was only a flash in the pan, lasting only two or three breaths before disappearing.

The gap it created was filled up by fog in the blink of an eye.

Not only that, the black fog that swept across the mountains and forests seemed to be angry, and the speed of its expansion and spread suddenly accelerated.

Wherever it goes, lives are destroyed!

Countless birds, beasts, snakes and insects living in the woods and grass fled desperately as if the end of the world was coming.

Zhang Yuan, who was also on the run, felt his scalp tingling and felt that something was wrong!

run! run! run!
There was only one thought left in his mind.

[Containable genome discovered! ]

Just when Zhang Yuan escaped about a hundred steps away, a striking prompt suddenly popped up in his field of vision.

At this time, God's Nest was actually touched!
Grass!

Zhang Yuan's mood was completely indescribable.

During this period of time, he went into the mountains every day to hunt and collect herbs, while constantly searching for new hosts.

To fill the last vacant cell in the God's Nest.

After wasting a lot of time and energy, Zhang Yuan still found nothing and even became a little discouraged.

He once believed that there was no third kind of extraordinary life in the territory of Yagui that could be accommodated by the God's Nest.

What they never expected was that at this critical moment when they were facing a life-and-death crisis, a new host target actually appeared!
How to do?
Zhang Yuan kept walking, feeling extremely conflicted.

Desire told him that this was his chance. If he gave up and missed it, he might not have such luck again in the future.

At the same time, reason was warning Zhang Yuan not to have the urge to commit suicide.

Because any opportunity counts only if you are alive to take it!

Desire and reason created a violent conflict in his mind.

In the end, reason prevailed over desire.

Zhang Yuan ran wildly!

Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a flash of golden light flying past him.

Zhang Yuan subconsciously turned his head to look.

He was shocked to find that the golden color was actually a huge golden grasshopper.

This big grasshopper is mixed in with countless fleeing insects, and its unique color and texture are particularly eye-catching!

Zhang Yuan was of course very familiar with grasshoppers.

In the past, when he couldn't hunt prey, he often caught some and roasted them to eat, which more or less provided some protein.

But a grasshopper this big and with such a special color.

It was the first time Zhang Yuan saw it.

Could it be…

Zhang Yuan thought of a possibility, his heart suddenly started beating wildly, and his mouth felt dry.

Fight!

The next moment, he suddenly exerted his strength and leaped forward, opening his arms and pouncing towards the big golden grasshopper.

Zhang Yuan suspected that it was the extraordinary life form that touched the God's Nest!

Zhang Yuan had given up.

But this guy actually flew in front of me. It would be unreasonable not to try to catch him!

The big golden grasshopper just landed on a patch of grass.

It swayed a few times, then spread its wings and flew up.

Suddenly, a figure swooped over and stretched out its claws to grab the big grasshopper like lightning.

The big golden grasshopper that had just taken off was caught off guard and was caught red-handed!

It worked!
Zhang Yuan fell to the ground and rolled over.

I just felt a sharp pain in my palm.

The big grasshopper caught in Zhang Yuan's hand was struggling desperately, scratching his palm with its thick hind legs covered with sharp thorns!

Zhang Yuan was completely unaware and immediately activated the Divine Nest.

The big grasshopper in his hand disappeared instantly!

[Host: Zhang Yuan]

[Realm: First level (bright strength)]

[God's Nest: Level 1 (45%)]

[Host: Level 2 Black Giant Ant (18%)/4 times Strength]

[Host: Level 2 Jade Mantis (5%)/Intermediate Sword Skills Mastery]

[Host: Level 1 Golden Grasshopper (1%)/2x Agility]

[Qi and blood: 105/112]

[Source Quality: 2.7]

Three days ago, through Zhang Yuan's continuous input of source essence, the second host, the Jade Mantis, was successfully promoted.

The original mastery of elementary swordsmanship then turned into mastery of intermediate swordsmanship.

Then he stored all the newly acquired source essence and did not invest it in the two major hosts or the main body of the God's Nest.

Now that a new host has been unexpectedly accommodated, these stored source substances are immediately put to use.

The extraordinary abilities that this third host, the golden grasshopper, can bestow upon its host are undoubtedly as practical as those of the black giant ant!
Strength and agility are attributes that complement each other!
Zhang Yuan was so happy that he almost forgot about the impending crisis.

His intuition told him that it was definitely luck that allowed him to pounce on the golden grasshopper without missing.

You know, this guy's extraordinary ability is agility!

But Zhang Yuan's joy only lasted for a moment.

He found that the danger he faced was not only continuing to expand, but was also sweeping in from different directions.

Zhang Yuan looked around and saw thick black fog everywhere.

The worst happened.

Now, let alone escaping, he couldn't even tell the direction!
Zhang Yuan's heart became cold and kept sinking, as if it was about to sink into a bottomless abyss.

Faced with such a result, his previous desperate escape was a complete joke.

It's like a fish caught in a huge net, no matter how hard you try, it's all in vain!

With a wry smile, Zhang Yuan pulled out the long knife tied to his back.

Even if he dies, he will fight one last time!
At this moment, a black feather flew out from Zhang Yuan's arms.

Floating silently in front of him!
