Infinite Chimera Creation

Looking intently at Guluo, the laziness in Dosak's eyes vanished, replaced by an undisguised domineering confidence and a kingly aura. He said in a deep voice,

"And the one I've chosen is you!"

Hearing this, although he didn't completely believe Dosak's words, Gulu still feigned sudden understanding, nodded, and said, "I see."

"So, how do you plan to assist me in helping the demon race secure the final spot?"

Although he didn't believe it completely, he figured it wouldn't hurt to ask anyway, so Gu Luo naturally asked.

"It's very simple. You are not restricted by snake patterns. Just take care of those guys with snake patterns, and leave the rest to us."

Without the slightest hesitation, Dosak revealed the "plan" he had prepared long ago.

"Oh? Is that so?"

Upon hearing Dosak's plan, Guluo's eyes narrowed slightly, and an unsettling smile curved his lips as he spoke.

"Killing the two humans with snake markings would be no problem at all; we could easily destroy those two settlements on our own. However, dealing with the one among the demon children with snake markings will not be so simple."

As he spoke, a hint of helplessness appeared on Guluo's face.

"As far as I know, the one among the Demon Children who possesses the serpent pattern is precisely the strongest among the Demon Children race. You already encountered someone in the previous ambush who, while not as strong as me, was far superior to Zhu Bi. You can imagine how powerful this serpent pattern holder must be."

At this point, Guluo's expression turned somewhat unpleasant; clearly, what he was about to say displeased him greatly.

"Moreover, according to the information from my clone, some members of the Elven race, who once fought against us and caused us heavy losses, are now active in the settlement of the Demon Children, called Redemption. It seems that the two sides may have reached some kind of agreement."

With a long sigh, Gu Luo's face turned helpless.

"Although I'm reluctant to admit it, if there were a few of those giant elves in [Redemption], under their protection along with a large number of demon children, we would have no chance of killing the snake-patterned owner."

Chapter 141 Differences

While Gulu and Dosak were negotiating, another group of chimeras approached Momiji.

The ground suddenly split open, and the enormous, python-like leader of the Zelo predatory worms emerged from the soil, looking down at the incredibly small Red Leaf, and letting out a shrill cry.

"Leader of the Demon Children, would you like to have a talk with me?"

Although the deaths of many of the Demon Children at the Demon Nest and the serious injury to the Golden Crown left Momiji feeling very depressed, she was still able to discern what she, as a leader, should and should not do.

Therefore, after confirming that Zelo had no intention of attacking, Momiji did not react excessively and calmly began to talk to him.

Zelo then repeated what Dosak had said to Gulu to Momiji, and then proposed the same cooperation terms as Dosak.

Hongye did not give an answer immediately, but claimed that she needed to think about it. The leader of the Zelo Hunting Worms seemed not to be worried at all that Hongye would refuse his conditions. He left with the words, "I will come to find you again in three days," and then disappeared underground again.

After having the children of the monsters with earth-type abilities explore the underground area and confirm that Zelo had indeed left, Momiji summoned the higher-ups among the children of the monsters to discuss whether to cooperate with the predatory worm.

As Yuan Yuan's former assistant, Shiki, who became a layabout after Blanche's arrival, went through a brief period of not knowing what to do. She then set her sights on Kureha, whom she had watched grow up. When she had nothing to do each day, she would observe Kureha through the white gaps on Kureha's body with her coordinates fixed there.

Therefore, every word that the predatory worm said was naturally heard by Siji.

Tilting her head in confusion, Siji turned to look at Yuan Yuan, who was studying the newly acquired magic runes, and asked,

"Yuan Jun, if I remember correctly, that little earthworm was determined not to return to the Hell Sect, so why is she now actively contacting Little Red Leaf, acting like she's going back to Hell?"

Upon hearing the question about the four seasons, Yuan Yuan frowned impatiently, but without turning around, he remained focused on what he was doing and casually replied,

"It's just a simple trick. They probably want all the snake-patterned people to die, and then wipe out all the intelligent races, so that the condition of 'leaving only one intelligent race' cannot be met, thus allowing them to remain on Earth."

Upon hearing Yuan Yuan's explanation, Siji nodded in realization, her face filled with a blank expression.

Siji suddenly understood, but Yuan Yuan was still somewhat unsettled. He put down the magic runes in his hand, turned his head, frowned, and asked,

"Why do I feel like your IQ has been dropping lately? Is it because I've put too much strain on your body and it's affecting your logical thinking? Or is there something wrong with you?"

"Yuan Jun, your skills are superb! So far, this body has not suffered any damage."

However, while Yuan Yuan believed that Siji's IQ had decreased, Siji herself disagreed. She tilted her head, tapped her temple with her index finger, and said with slight dissatisfaction,

"As for me having a problem... that's even more impossible. The will I projected into this body is only a small part of it; the main body of my will is still deep within the world. As long as I'm deep within the world, my will will not be affected in any way and will always remain in its optimal state."

Hearing Siji's explanation, Yuan Yuan frowned even more deeply. His earlier comments about Siji's low intelligence weren't sarcastic, but rather a statement of fact. Recently, Siji had indeed become increasingly dull-witted, and her intelligence seemed to be declining.

However, the main problem is not the decrease in IQ, but the fact that Shiki himself is completely unaware of the decrease in IQ and insists that he is in the depths of the world and that there is absolutely no problem.

After pondering for a moment, Yuan Yuan mentally instructed Alaya to observe the changes of the four seasons, while also verbally reminding her...

"Alright, if you think it's okay, then it's okay. My experiment has recently reached an important stage, and I don't have much time to pay attention to you. If you feel that something is wrong, remember to tell me. After all, you are my first collaborator, and I can't let you disappear without a trace."

After hearing Yuan Yuan's words, Siji smiled carelessly, replied that she understood, and then turned her head back to stare at Hongye.

Shaking his head inwardly, Yuan Yuan ignored the four seasons and picked up the magic runes again to study them carefully.

Yuan Yuan wasn't lying. His experiment had indeed reached a crucial stage. He had found a way to make some use of magic runes. If he put in more effort and studied it diligently, he might be able to find a way to completely master the use of magic runes.

The laboratory fell silent as neither of them spoke, but the situation on the other side of the white gap became increasingly heated.

As is customary, the opinions of the higher-ups of the Demon Children were once again divided. One group of Demon Children believed that they could cooperate with the Predator Worm and entrust some difficult and dangerous tasks to the Predator Worm.

The other group strongly opposed cooperating with the predatory worms. In their view, all chimeras were dangerous, and cooperating with them would inevitably lead to serious consequences.

The two factions held their own opinions and neither was willing to back down, leading to a fierce argument.

If this were a scene between ordinary humans, it would probably be two groups of old men spitting at each other, which would be annoying to watch.

However, in "Redemption," in a place ruled by the children of monsters, such a scene becomes two groups of cute little girls arguing with each other, creating a completely different visual effect.

Watching the group of little girls below, dressed in Gothic Lolita outfits, Lolita dresses, maid outfits, princess dresses, with some wearing pigtails and others having waist-length hair, arguing, Hongye's mood, which had been depressed because of Jinguan's injury, improved considerably.

However, Hongye's good mood didn't last long before it was shattered by a sudden piece of news.

"Lady Kureha, the last remaining human settlements, [Troya] and [Heavenly Palace], have been destroyed."

Staring intently at the demon child who had delivered the message, Hongye's expression was extremely grim. She asked in a deep voice,

"Destroyed? What happened? Tell me what happened."

The young demon child trembled under Kureha's gaze and quickly answered,

"According to the intelligence I've gathered, the owner of the serpent pattern in [Troya] and [Tiangong] died suddenly while taking a walk, and the other spontaneously combusted and was burned alive. Less than half an hour later, a terrifying number of Dosak eight-eyed lions began to attack the town, and both settlements were destroyed within fifteen minutes."

Hearing this, how could Hongye not understand the current situation? The two dead snake-pattern owners obviously could not have died suddenly or spontaneously combusted, but were murdered. And the person who killed the two was obviously cooperating with Dosak Eight-Eyed Lion.

Now that the only two remaining human users of the snake pattern are dead, it's quite possible that their next target will be Red Leaf.

Thinking of this, all the children of demons fell silent. Looking at the silent crowd, Hongye announced in a resounding voice,

"It's decided, [Redemption] and Predator Worm will cooperate."

P.S., please vote with monthly tickets!

Chapter 142 Taunt

The group led by Jin Guan who attacked the Monster's Nest were not all dead. When these survivors reported, they naturally emphasized that the Monster's Nest had no monsters and the strange appearance of the Dosak Eight-Eyed Lion in the Monster's Nest.

Combining this intelligence with the previous information that the owner of the snake-patterned human settlement suddenly died, and then the Dosak Eight-Eyed Lion attacked both settlements, it is not difficult to conclude that the monster race has allied with the Dosak Eight-Eyed Lion race.

Yuan Yuan was extremely assertive, and Hongye, as his disciple, was naturally not one to sit idly by and wait for death. Knowing that she might be assassinated by the demons, she decisively issued a war order against them.

To prevent a repeat of the previous situation where dispatched troops became "unprotected" and were killed by chimeras that appeared out of nowhere, this time Momiji chose to act alongside the extermination force, heading to the monster's lair to destroy the monster race.

As for whether the chimeras would take advantage of her absence and massacre ordinary people, Momiji was not worried.

Because the entire demon race is a warrior, and all demon children can transform into powerful demons, there are no non-combatants. So, with a wave of her hand, Kureha recruited all the demon children into the extermination force, leaving not a single demon child in the settlement, only a pile of buildings and a group of terrified humans.

Even if buildings are demolished, they can be rebuilt. With the help of monster children of various abilities, rebuilding a city is not a difficult task. As for the survival of humans... who cares about them now?

The distance between the Monster's Nest and [Redemption] isn't short, but given the luxury of using earth-based abilities to travel, this considerable distance isn't so difficult to traverse.

It took half a day to reach the monster's lair. Looking at the gloomy, dense forest before her, Hongye narrowed her eyes slightly. She wasn't in a hurry to go in. After observing for a moment, a mocking smile appeared on her lips, and she gently beckoned.

“We don’t need to play games with them on their home turf. Let’s send some fire-wielding guys to burn this lousy forest down and make these cowardly cowards come out and meet us.”

Upon hearing Hongye's command, the thirty-seven children of fire-type monsters standing in the queue quickly stepped forward and walked to the front of the line. Without any slogans, they tacitly and swiftly completed their monster transformation and then used their respective methods to set the forest ablaze.

Thick smoke billowed into the sky. At first, the monsters lurking in various parts of the forest and the Dosak eight-eyed lions could still hold back, but after the fire burned for a few minutes and the flames began to lick their bodies, they finally couldn't resist and rushed out of the forest.

Looking at the monsters that rushed out of the forest, staring at her with hostile eyes, and the big lion with eight large eyes and a blood-red body, Hongye observed for a moment and found that the guy with snake patterns was hiding and not among the monsters.

With a disdainful curl of her lip, not even bothering to utter a harsh word, Hongye turned to the predatory earthworm leader beside her and asked,

"So, is that monster with the snake-like markings here?"

Without needing to consciously sense it, the predatory worm leader's instincts had been constantly warning him since he first arrived, telling him that this was the sanctuary of the snake-patterned possessor and urging him to leave immediately. Therefore, the predatory worm leader decisively pointed to its enormous head—the part of which was indistinguishable from its neck—and shrieked,

"My instincts tell me I can't harm these monsters, so the individual monster with snake patterns must be nearby."

Not surprised by the predatory worm's answer, Hongye curled the corners of her mouth and said...

"In that case, my men will go first, but once my men find and kill that guy with the snake pattern..."

Before Hongye could continue, the predatory worm leader interrupted her in a shrill voice.

"Then it will be our time. Countless predatory worms will wipe out every enemy you can see and can't see, leaving no one alive."

As he spoke, the predatory worm leader let out a harsh, unpleasant laugh.

"Hehehe, ordinary predatory worms will never disobey my orders. They won't hesitate even if I tell them to die. If we really fight, those trash lions, who are powerful but still fear death like ordinary creatures, will be so terrified that they'll forget how to fight."

After giving the leader of the predatory earthworms a deep look, Hongye ignored his boastful words and loudly commanded.

"Second team, stand by. First, third, fourth, and fifth combat units, commence attack. Top priority: locate the fleeing snake-pattern owner. Second priority: kill as many enemies as possible."

At Hongye's command, a large number of Demon Children sprang into action. They calmly took their first step with steady pace, and then instantly transformed into various ferocious and terrifying monsters the moment they took their second step. Their speed suddenly increased, and they pounced on the monster horde.

The monsters roared defiantly and charged forward against the wave of attacks from the Demon Children. Instantly, blood, bone fragments, bits of flesh, and pieces of internal organs were scattered everywhere.

The battle between monsters and their offspring is incredibly fierce, as both possess strong regenerative abilities. Unless a single blow is fatal, any wound inflicted on their bodies will heal instantly, only to be replaced by new ones.

In this way, although fewer people died in their battles, the visual effects were far more spectacular.

As one monster realizes it cannot dodge its opponent's next attack, it decisively turns to the side, shifting the damage from its head to its right shoulder. Instantly, its right forelimb flies off amidst a spray of blood. With its right arm severed, the monster seems oblivious to the pain, forcefully slamming its left arm into the enemy. Immediately afterward, its newly repaired right arm strikes down on the enemy as well.

Such scenes were everywhere on the battlefield, and the visual impact was terrifying, as if everyone was a desperate, reckless madman.

However, this scene failed to attract Hongye's attention. She lowered her head, her brows furrowed, as if she was thinking about something.

Suddenly, a dark figure emerged from Hongye's shadow and rushed towards her like lightning. It looked ominous, and its venomous claws reached for Hongye's throat.

Faced with such a lightning-fast attack, Hongye remained calm, a mocking smile curving her lips. She didn't even raise her head, completely ignoring the deadly assassin.
