Slime Immortal

Ugh……

I sighed deeply in my heart.

Unfortunately, she failed to overthrow the corrupt priests and avenge her father. Like the beasts, her body sank into the bottomless quagmire.

But that’s fine too.

It is her greatest honor to return to the arms of Putu, the spirit of the swamp, rather than fall into the hands of filthy and corrupt believers.

She lay powerlessly on the ground, her eyes level with the ground. She seemed to see many green bubbles emerging from the swamp, like Putu's messengers - the slimes welcoming her return...

"Hisa! (Shedding Scales)"

The noisy and annoying sound still echoed in Sergash's ears. She heard the footsteps of death approaching step by step. Next, if she smashed the stick down, her head would be completely blown apart.

However, she no longer fears death, but only calmness and regret.

She gradually closed her eyes, willing to sink into the darkness, but gradually, she suddenly felt that her body, which had become even colder due to excessive blood loss, seemed to be surrounded by warmth.

It was like soft slime gel wrapped around her.

Was it Putu who came to pick her up?

But the faint doubt in Sergash's heart did not last long, she heard a scream piercing through the darkness and echoing in her ears.

The buzzing sound was so loud that at first she thought it was caused by blood loss in her brain, but gradually she felt something was wrong.

and many more……

This is the sound of a stinging bee vibrating its wings!

After realizing this, Sergash suddenly opened his eyes and looked up with difficulty, only to see poisonous thorns on the trees falling like rain, driving away the invading demihumans.

These black iron-level monsters usually appear in groups, and the poisonous stings they spray are deadly and terrifying. Even lizardmen with scales dare not provoke them easily.

How come there happened to be a stinger beehive here, and it attacked the hunting team?

Could it be that the ancestral spirits and Putu heard her prayers?

In an instant, hope of survival ignited in her heart. She endured the severe pain, moved her body, and slowly hid in the swamp.

Chapter 14: Slime in Wolf Skin

Chen Yu, who was hiding in the swamp, saw Sergash hiding in there as well. He silently moved deeper into the swamp, then quietly poked his head out to continue observing.

I have to say that this lizard man has really strong vitality. He can still move even in this state, and dares to let the wound come into contact with the dirty swamp water. He is not afraid of infection.

Just now, he was hiding behind a rock and watching the confrontation between the two groups of demihumans, but he soon discovered a problem.

He listened to these demi-humans chattering for a long time but couldn't understand a single word they said. He was completely confused about the grudge between them.

So he had no intention of helping either the female lizardman or the hunting team.

But it was a coincidence, I don't know if it was because the female lizardman was destined to die, or she was just lucky, but her previous archery trick just happened to trigger a new round of fighting between the stinging bees and the digging beetles.

As soon as this group of demi-humans came over, they immediately annoyed the stinging bees, which treated them as invaders and shot their stingers all over the sky.

At first, Chen Yu thought that he couldn’t deal with the stinging bees because the slimes were too weak. Now he sees that these sub-humans are also defeated by the stinging bees.

It seems reasonable that the stinging bees could occupy this taller twisted oak tree.

Seeing the hunting team scatter, the three demi-humans fled madly from the spot. The buzzing sound gradually subsided and the forest returned to tranquility again.

But not all of them left. At least the female lizardman was still hiding in the pool.

It was the first time that Chen Yu faced this kind of alien race. He didn't dare to approach them carelessly, so he hid in the swamp and observed her.

……

Sergash lurked quietly in the mud, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the stinging bees above his head calm down.

After regaining some strength, he swam tiredly to the other side, got ashore and lay on the ground to catch his breath.

"It must be Putu who is blessing me."

After experiencing a life-and-death situation, she was exhausted all over, but she still forced herself to get up, carefully knelt on the shore and prayed devoutly, reciting obscure prayers.

This prayer originated from the ancient Demihuman language and was taught to her by her father himself. Although the general meaning of the prayer had long been unknown to anyone in the long-standing tradition, her father once said that prayer was just a form, and as long as one maintained awe and reverence for Putu, the gates of the swamp would always be open to the lizardmen.

After praying, Sergash slowly opened his eyes, a look of sorrow on his face. "Father is right. Putu is watching over us and blessing us. However, from now on, those lizardmen obsessed with the power brought by the Scale Claw Spirit will forever be immersed in the lies of power woven by the corrupted Morgul."

"When I return to Putu's embrace, there will be no more lizardmen who believe in nature on the riverbank..."

Thinking of this, Sergash clenched his fists unconsciously, his mind still recalling that bloody night. He could not forget the blood gushing from his father's chest and the ruthlessness and coldness on the priest's face.

She knelt on the ground, unable to let go for a long time, but her attention was soon attracted by the green bubbles rising from the pool.

The shadow of the sun moved upward, and the early morning sunlight shone on the gloomy forest, barely dispelling the poisonous fog that filled the surroundings. The light passed through the gaps between the leaves and fell on the swamp and the ground, forming spots of light, and shone on Segash.

The body felt warm, and even the cold blood in the body gradually warmed up.

In the swamp, slimes emerged from the pools, lazily basking in the sun and starting their day's eating.

These slimes did not seem to be afraid of Sergash. They were even very close to her and boldly jumped into her arms to compete for the sunlight.

This scene made her feel warm inside and slightly dispelled the bad memories in her mind.

Sergash picked up a slime and kissed it in thanks.

"Descendants of Putu, thank you for praying for me and getting Putu's attention."

This scene was seen by Chen Yu who was hiding in the swamp. Seeing that these slimes were not afraid of the female lizardmen, a hint of surprise appeared in his round eyes.

As a member of the slime community, he knew how timid these slimes were. When they encountered larger beetles, they would be frightened and tremble, unable to move.

Are they close to this female lizardman because she poses no threat?

Or do slimes actually have a symbiotic relationship with certain lizardmen?

Everything about Ziarella was unknown to him, and it was difficult to understand this world by guesswork alone.

After some thought, since the slime instinctively did not move, Chen Yu decided to show up and try to contact the female lizardman.

Of course, he wasn't defenseless...

On the swamp shore, Sergash was still stroking the slime in his arms, but suddenly he noticed that the slimes floating on the pool seemed to have encountered a natural enemy, and they swam towards the shore in panic, and a piece of water suddenly appeared in the middle of the pool.

"Is it a predator?"

A look of vigilance appeared on Sergash's face. He took off the canine tooth necklace hanging around his neck and stared intently at the pool.

Ripples appeared on the water surface, and a black shell slowly emerged. She recognized it as the shell of a burrowing beetle at first glance, and a bit of disgust appeared in her vigilant expression.

As a follower of Putu, she hates what slimes hate, especially predators who hunt slimes.

She clenched her canine teeth in her palms, tensed her nerves, and was ready to strike at any time.

But unexpectedly, the next second, a slime slowly emerged from under the black shell?

what?

Slime?

Segash's face turned blank in an instant.

She saw something.

A slime wearing a beetle shell.

Was Putu sama playing a joke on her?

Her mind was spinning and she was at a loss as to what to do when facing the shell-shaped slime swimming towards her.

Looking at this scene that challenged her cognition, she was stunned for a long time, and inexplicably connected it with the scene where the stinging bee suddenly attacked and drove away the hunting team.

Could it be that.

Sergash's heart suddenly felt ripples.

Was it this slime that saved her?

As soon as this thought came to her mind, her amber eyes flickered and brightened. She couldn't help but stretch out her hands and reverently hold up the shell slime in front of her, muttering obscure words again.

What she didn't know was that the moment she picked up Chen Yu, Chen Yu almost attacked her. He only stopped when he saw that she was just mumbling words that he couldn't understand.

What is she mumbling?

Chen Yu was confused. Since he didn't understand, he decided to ask in person.

Fortunately, he had felt that he would come into contact with intelligent creatures in Ze'arila sooner or later, so he practiced the art of sound transmission early on, which came in handy now.

The "sound" transmitted by the sound transmission technique is not the sound that can be heard by the ears, but refers to the sound of the soul. It is similar to the sound transmission by consciousness, but it must be effective through physical contact.

The sound of the spirit affects the soul and the mind. It is the primitive language common to all living beings and can be understood by all living beings regardless of the language they speak.

It can even receive the other party's spiritual voice in reverse, which is almost the same as automatic translation.

These days, the monsters in Xuxuantian are quite competitive. They all start practicing listening, reading and writing before they even transform, so the sound transmission technique is completely useless.

But it is very suitable for Ziarella, who does not speak the same language.

Just what to ask.

Chen Yu thought for a few seconds and decided to start with the simplest greeting.

His mind moved, his soul was touched, and a faint wave was emitted.

"Hello, Miss Lizardman."

Sergash, who was praying, was stunned when he heard the voice in his mind, and then his eyes widened.

"S...the slime is talking?!"

Chapter 15 The outside world

Just now, Segash experienced an absurd thing.

As a lizardman's Scaleclaw Shaman, she had thought she had seen a lot and that nothing in the swamp could surprise her.

But today she realized she was wrong.

She had never seen a slime speak.

The moment she heard the slime in her palm speaking, Sergash's mind was completely stunned. After several seconds, she seemed to realize something.
