American variety show world begins with subduing Jason

The darkness did not obstruct the vision of the superhumans. After touching the strangely shaped limestone wall, Edkin rubbed the damp traces on his fingers and looked enlightened.

"It turns out to be a natural sea cave; that's a bit hard to find." He clicked his teeth in frustration.

Eroded by water over millions of years, this natural landform is interconnected. It may be just a football field, or it may be a huge and complex underground world. Even if they all possess superhuman strength, they would not be able to search it all in a short time.

“No… I think I know where the target is!” Beverly’s expression became a little strange, as if it was a mixture of nostalgia and emotion.

After a while, her body trembled, and she came back to her senses from her old memories.

"Everyone, follow me."

With the help of various supernatural spells, they navigated through a chaotic array of obstacles and swiftly turned into a wide passage along one side of the cave.

The druid girl's search for a path, from initial hesitation to increasing decisiveness, was as if she had returned to a place she had longed for.

"As you all probably know, I encountered a terrifying clown demon when I was a child."

She gazed at the few scattered rocks that she vaguely remembered and continued to explain:

"It caused trouble hundreds of years ago, but was sealed away by the Native American priests at the time, in a place located underground in this town."

With the resurgence of the elemental tides, about ten years ago, the clown escaped his cage and began causing panic in the town, secretly devouring the flesh and souls of children to regain his power. Mike and I, along with several other classmates, were almost killed by him. Fortunately, our teacher happened to be passing by and intervened, defeating and banishing him. As a result, I became a druid.

"You mean... that demon is back?" Simon interrupted. "But I remember the news that it had been destroyed by Mr. Milyo. You were so happy that day, you took us to the best restaurant in Los Angeles for a big meal and celebrated all night long."

“You idiot, what she means is…” Edkin’s mind worked the fastest, “The sealing altar chosen by the Indian shamans is a node where the energy of the nearby ley lines converges, making it the best lair for extraordinary monsters.”

"who is it?"

As they approached a fork in the road, Holger, who was walking at the front, suddenly whispered a question.

However, before she could finish speaking, a beam of emerald light flashed, traversing hundreds of meters in a fraction of a second, and plunged fiercely towards Zhang Da's face.

Just as he was about to be hit, a magical battle axe suddenly flipped and blocked the attack at the last second.

The instincts honed by rich combat experience allowed the Barbarian sister's physical strength to react in the most appropriate way before her brain could even process the information.

"Hey——!"

The deep green glow was shattered, and droplets of liquid with a strong sour smell scattered, corroding small pits into the surrounding rocks.

"You son of a bitch...!"

Seeing the power of this acid arrow, if he were to take a direct hit, even with the defensive spells he had cast, he would likely be disfigured on the spot. Holger flew into a rage, swinging his axe in half to cleave the stalagmite in two. The muscles on his thick thighs writhed like pythons, and with a powerful kick, a massive boulder flew like a cannonball and crashed into the stalagmite.

"You are human? Yes... I'm sorry."

A timid, startled scream rang out, and a blonde girl with a panicked expression turned around.

Without her making any move, the loud whooshing sound disappeared quietly, and the hard rock lost all its kinetic energy in mid-air, falling silently to the ground like a light feather.

This effortless skill in casting spells instantly put the group on their guard.

However, the other party's naive and somewhat childish actions immediately dispelled most of their wariness.

"You're not with that monster, are you?"

The girl stumbled and dragged her bleeding arm as she ran over excitedly, showing no sign of the wariness one would expect when meeting a stranger, looking every bit like a complete novice.

The subsequent brief exchange further proved this point; the girl completely lacked the composure expected of a superhuman in the face of danger. After calming her down, the group finally managed to get a basic understanding of the situation.

"...Miss Carrie, you said you've seen Ricky! Is he still alive?"

“Yes.” Carrie rambled on, still shaken. For a high school girl who was just an ordinary person a few months ago, what she had just experienced was a nightmare. The courage she had gained from accidentally stepping into the realm of the extraordinary vanished in an instant, like snow under the sun.

"He's been captured by that monster again..." she cried out in panic, remembering how terrifying the enemy was.

Your description is really rude!

A disgruntled woman's voice suddenly broke out.

Her voice was incredibly charming, with an attraction comparable to a magnet at first listen, but after a while, it had a subtle cloying quality, like an apple pie with several times the amount of honey added during baking.

However, no one present, including the two men, had time to delve into the issue of what appeared to be a deliberately affected tone.

Because at the very moment the sound rang out, two azure shadows spun rapidly and rushed towards them!

A fiery red streak swept across his waist, and Holger let out a deep roar. The wild life energy, so thick it was almost tangible, boiled like fire, and even the water elemental that was immune to physical attacks was shattered by a single axe blow.

However, her all-out attack only succeeded halfway. Amidst the splashing water, most of the two elemental golems' bodies were completely evaporated, but the remaining parts turned into a ball of water that bound the blades. The incredibly sharp magical weapon was like a flying insect stuck in glue, unable to move anymore.

Chapter 476 A Narrow Encounter 2

The azure, pure liquid looked no different from ordinary seawater, yet it was as heavy as molten metal. It not only tightly gripped the tomahawk but also had the strength to send out a dozen sharp "tentacles" to stab at its face!

A chilling, slightly phantom-like pain from the needles struck, instantly tightening his bronze, muscular skin.

The most rational course of action would have been for Holger to decisively retreat, but instead she roared, her arm muscles bulging and vibrating rapidly, clearly channeling all her power into her weapon.

With a crisp sound of tearing fabric, a resilient vortex of water opened up, and a blazing crescent-shaped arc of light shot out.

At the same time, the ethereal sound of the zither and the transparent ripples fell precisely, dispelling the impending water spikes into nothingness.

Holding their staffs and lutes side by side, the two spellcasters took their positions without saying a word, their offense and defense perfectly coordinated.

The crimson moon slashed into the distant darkness, and a slender figure appeared there as if it had descended from nowhere, in the blink of an eye.

Her face was blurred, hidden in a shimmering, watery light. Only her full, round lips and sapphire-like eyes could be vaguely seen, while her lower body was covered in thick, white mist.

Even without revealing its full form, it exudes a strong, eerie charm that almost drags everyone into a mesmerizing dream.

"Don't look into her eyes!"

Carrie's fearful scream suddenly rang out, pulling the group back to reality from their inexplicable mental trance.

"This is the monster that's killing people, be careful..."

Without her needing to say anything more, the four, having received sufficient warning, acted together. A long, brown-green thorny whip and a dozen energy missiles flew about, accompanied by a soporific, hypnotic harp melody, as the barbarian older sister, with her giant axe capable of splitting gold and cleaving rocks, leaped forward to provide cover.

Such a well-defined and fierce attack was enough to take down a squad of fully armed soldiers in a second, yet it didn't even touch the hem of their clothes.

A curtain of water unfolded lightly, and behind the seemingly paper-thin defense lay a bottomless ocean that instantly swallowed the incoming spell. Then, like a resilient ball, it bounced the giant axe and its master away.

"What a strong body you have. It's a pity you're a woman, otherwise you could be my prince."

The mysterious woman chuckled, then gently raised her arm, her fingertips swirling with a faint blue light, like the brightest star in the night sky. The surrounding air instantly froze, and hundreds of dark, watery tentacles emerged from all directions, surging forth with the force of a raging storm.

Amidst the dense, soft pattering of raindrops on banana leaves, thick, long stalagmites shattered and broke, sending sand and stones flying and dust billowing everywhere.

Unforgiving, she loosely clenched her slender, fair fingers, causing the moisture inside the tunnel to suddenly become many times more concentrated. Tiny drops of moisture seeped from the sand and gravel on the ground, spreading out strange, dark, corrosive marks.

However, before the insidious scheme could be fully formed, a beam of bright silver-blue moonlight suddenly descended from the sky and shone upon her.

The cool, clear light, like a sharp blade slicing through the darkness, instantly illuminated the entire gloomy space, filling the surroundings with a fresh yet chilling aura.

A phantom silver flame, imbued with the sacred power of nature, blazed fiercely, causing the figure to convulse and tremble violently, emitting a roar intertwined with pain and rage.

"Roar!"

Holger's massive body leaped into the air once more, the air in his path being compressed into a piercing whistling sound. Fine blood vessels quickly filled her eyes. Her speed was almost that of a starting car. Ignoring the magical weapon in her hand that could cut through iron like mud, the impact alone, combined with her body of steel, was enough to kill an elephant!

However, at that moment, from the thick, pale fog that had enveloped most of the woman's body, a long, slender, curved shadow suddenly shot out and struck her heavily in the chest and abdomen.

The defenses provided by her teammates were like paper being shredded. The terrifying pain, as if struck in the waist by an iron pillar, instantly rushed into her brain. The Barbarian sister could even hear the sound of her ribs cracking under the unbearable pressure through bone conduction.

The strong taste of rust immediately filled her mouth, and her body rolled back even faster than when she came. But even so, she seized the fleeting opportunity and swung her weapon with all her might, leaving a long wound on the shadow of the sneak attack.

Several walnut-sized, egg-shaped scales, streaked with blood, rolled about. As the layers of camouflage were peeled away, the enemy's true face was finally revealed.

She was a beautiful woman with a graceful figure, delicate skin that shone like snow, eyes brighter than the stars, and red lips as luscious as fire. Just looking at her face would make 99% of human women feel ashamed of themselves.

The reason it wasn't described as a woman is because below its slender waist, which could be grasped in one hand, were not the rounded thighs of a human, but rather a long, slender fish tail covered with silver scales.

A flicker of surprise crossed her eyes, quickly turning into anger and resentment, as if she were extremely dissatisfied with her gains. She slammed her fishtail against the ground, sending ripples of energy through the air. Simon and Edkin, who were about to launch a pincer attack, immediately lost their footing and nearly crashed into the rock wall.

"It's beyond my expectations that a mere human could achieve this level." Her voice was exceptionally melodious, like the singing of waves, yet it also contained a hint of haughty nobility.

"However, the game should end now. Since you dared to disturb my date with the 'prince,' you shall leave your life as compensation."

As his words grew colder and more resolute, his crescent-shaped tail fin swayed gently, a deep power rose, and a chaotic, stiff sound of footsteps echoed.

The shriveled corpses, dressed in their clothes from life, had withered faces drained of their lifeblood and bodily fluids, bearing an eerie and empty look that seemed to exude death.

At first glance, they seemed no different from ordinary undead, but once they got to fight them, they immediately realized how troublesome these strange mummies were. Not only were they all as hard as steel, but they were also ten times more agile than ordinary zombies. They wondered how their almost completely dehydrated joints could support such intense movements.

"Hey, hey, neither fairy tales nor supernatural creature encyclopedias ever mention that mermaids can summon the dead?"

Flustered and clumsy, Edkin yelled in frustration. Among the group, he was the weakest and had the hardest time dodging.

Simon, who was also a weak spellcaster, was much more relaxed. He simply used six force field shields to form a shell, protecting himself firmly inside.

While offering assistance, he also managed to speak amidst his busy schedule, "Impossible. This mythical creature went extinct hundreds of years ago. Could it be a surviving mutated species?"

"You still have the nerve to yell like that."

The woman, who appeared to be a mermaid, couldn't help but chuckle coldly and raised a finger.

As if receiving some kind of command, a faint blackish-purple light flashed beneath the zombies' withered, hardened skin, as if a thin layer of liquid was flowing through them. In a moment, they went limp and melted, turning into a boundless swamp of corpse mud.

The powerful suction force suddenly pulled everything it touched toward the ground, including the injured girl, Carrie. The fighting group was as if they were being held down by an invisible hand, and every step they took required ten times the effort, immediately plunging them into a life-or-death crisis.

Beverly, who was in the lead, seemed to be going all out. Her lithe body leaped into the air and transformed into a black panther, baring its fangs and claws as it bravely pounced on the enemy.

Then, it was mercilessly pierced by a sharp icicle!

The magnificent fur, as beautiful as brocade, turned into starlight and scattered into the void, but the teammates' faces showed joy rather than sorrow.

"Force Field Imprisonment!"

"Freeze-motion Song!"

Two control skills descended simultaneously, freezing the mermaid beauty in place for a moment. In the next instant, her powerful superhuman resistance would help her break free.

But she didn't have that chance. A brownish-green acorn had already taken advantage of the moment and precisely stuck to the back of her neck. Hundreds of plant roots grew in the blink of an eye, like a natural cage, binding her tightly.

The figure of the druid girl appeared behind him, excitedly high-fiving her companions from afar.

They're all seasoned veterans who've seen it all. This isn't some hot-blooded shonen manga from Japan, so why would they gossip during a battle? It's just a pre-arranged tactic.

Chapter 477

"Don't be careless, don't look into her eyes, that...that's scary."

Having just escaped a perilous battle, the still-shaken girl, Carrie, hadn't even had a chance to catch her breath before she hurriedly warned again. It seemed that she had suffered quite a bit under the enemy's terrifying charm during the chase.
