Qin Siyang sat limply at the bottom of the cave, feeling a bit lost.
The last time he obtained the red crystal, he also couldn't find his way back.
But he got lucky and ran into Zhao Sifang, who was hunting gods deep outside the safe zone.
And so, he made it back to the safe zone.
But this time, he was even deeper outside the safe zone.
It had been three days since he last saw another person.
To be honest, if he actually ran into another Sequence ability user out here, he'd probably be even more afraid.
This far from the safe zone, besides himself, what else could possibly be worth hunting?
He climbed out of the cave and surveyed the desolate landscape.
The rocks in every direction looked almost identical.
He couldn't quite remember which direction he had come from.
But vaguely, he felt that the giant rock to his left looked somewhat familiar.
Seemed like he had seen it on his way here.
'Should I try walking that way?'
After thinking it over, he had no other options.
He could only give it a shot.
He was now at Sequence Level Five.
His skills and strength had improved drastically.
He had a certain level of self-protection now.
Plus, his phone had an app to identify gods.
As long as he didn't get targeted by a large god, it shouldn't be a big deal.
But the most urgent problem now was resources.
The food and water in his storage box would only last him two weeks outside the safe zone.
Qin Siyang walked forward.
But for some reason, the further he went, the more uneasy he felt.
His right eyelid twitched uncontrollably for no reason.
He looked at the unfamiliar, massive mountain range in front of him and stopped.
'I don't think I've been here before…'
'Did I go in the wrong direction?'
Just as he was about to turn back—
Suddenly, he saw four giant scythe-like antennae protruding from the mountaintop.
Then, an oval-shaped head with a black metallic sheen emerged.
A pair of enormous compound eyes, glowing eerie green, stared at Qin Siyang.
Its mouth, filled with sharp fangs and writhing feelers, was exposed, with green mucus clinging to its tendrils.
Qin Siyang swallowed.
Another god encounter.
But this one looked absolutely disgusting, he immediately pulled out his phone and snapped a picture of the god before him.
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
[Corrosive Black Centipede]
[Type: Medium-sized God]
[The Corrosive Black Centipede is a relatively rare god, usually found only deep outside the safe zone. It sprays highly corrosive green liquid mist, capable of easily dissolving metal and various materials.]
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
Qin Siyang breathed a sigh of relief.
Corrosion, huh? He was wearing second-tier Red Silk Armor, which was resistant to corrosion. Shouldn't be a big deal. He continued reading.
[Generally, the Corrosive Black Centipede's acid can dissolve third-tier armor within ten seconds. Its power is terrifying.]
"..."
Qin Siyang's lips twitched.
This Red Silk Armor had never really proven its worth.
He had to replace it when he got back.
If he could get back…
[The Corrosive Black Centipede's armor is extremely tough and cannot be pierced. The joints are slightly weaker and can be targeted for attacks.]
[The centipede's tail spikes are highly venomous. Touching them means certain death.]
[It can move at high speeds, crawling rapidly over any terrain.]
[However, the Corrosive Black Centipede is extremely sensitive to cold. Extreme low temperatures can slow its movements and make its shell brittle.]
[Its compound eyes, antennae, and back shell are excellent materials for crafting god-hunting weapons.]
[Its corrosive liquid has immense medical and research value. The corrosive sac, located under the second body segment, is highly valuable. However, the centipede usually self-destructs its sac before death, taking enemies down with it.]
Qin Siyang put away his phone.
"The weakness is extreme low temperature. Not just cold, extreme cold. Where the hell am I supposed to find that?"
As he grumbled, the Corrosive Black Centipede's massive body slithered out completely.
Its entire form instantly snapped like a thick whip, striking toward Qin Siyang at lightning speed.
Qin Siyang gripped his Short Bee Dagger and God-Hunting Dagger tightly.
He prepared to activate [Banquet Domain] to dodge and then look for an opening to attack its joints.
But as the Corrosive Black Centipede drew closer, he realized: its joints were emitting a faint green mist.
'The joints… can also release acid?'
'Looks like the plan to attack its joints is out.'
'Time to test if my increased level can break through with sheer force.'
Qin Siyang swallowed a small piece of divine remains.
[[Violence] activated]
[[Banquet Domain] activated]
He moved swiftly, his figure constantly shifting in front of the Corrosive Black Centipede.
Its compound eyes locked onto his flickering form, seemingly confused.
At the moment its body hesitated slightly, Qin Siyang appeared directly in front of its massive compound eyes.
A smirk tugged at the corner of his lips.
If he couldn't attack the joints, the eyes were the next best weak spot.
Qin Siyang stared at the massive compound eyes, several times larger than a millstone.
Its surface was covered with countless glowing green micro-eyes, neatly arranged like a honeycomb.
Each micro-eye contained a twisted eyeball, continuously rotating and scanning in different directions.
The moment Qin Siyang appeared, every eyeball within the micro-eyes focused on him.
The eerie sight sent a chill down his spine.
But the Corrosive Black Centipede was far more terrified than he was.
It tried to shut its scaly eyelid armor to protect its compound eyes.
Qin Siyang wouldn't give it the chance.
The cold creeping into his heart wouldn't slow his attack.
With his enhanced Sequence level and the boost from [Violence], his agility had reached an inhuman level.
Almost instinctively, his body twisted midair.
Blade flashed.
The Short Bee Dagger traced a dim silver arc through the air.
Ding—
A crisp impact rang out, like a nail striking metal.
The dagger failed to pierce the Corrosive Black Centipede's eye.
Qin Siyang watched as his Short Bee Dagger merely scraped the surface, cutting open only a few of the micro-eyes.
Squelch—
Eyeball fluid and strange-looking eyeballs splattered onto him, smudging his face mask.
'Even the eyes are this tough?'
Qin Siyang's heart tightened.
If he couldn't even pierce the eyeballs, the back shell was out of the question.
He couldn't take down this medium-sized god.
Run!
Qin Siyang instantly activated [Banquet Domain] and dashed to the side.
The Corrosive Black Centipede, seemingly enraged, gave chase at full speed.
It was even faster than before.
Even with continuous teleportation, Qin Siyang couldn't shake it off.
But soon, the effects of the Short Bee Dagger kicked in.
BOOM—
A loud crash echoed behind him.
Qin Siyang turned to look.
The Corrosive Black Centipede, now paralyzed, had collapsed to the ground.
