Chapter 231: Chapter 230: Worm of Erosion (20)_1

“Retreat quickly!”

In Fu Qian’s consciousness, the Interlocutor was yelling.

“This is your last chance, while he’s dealing with Liang Yuntian!”

“You’re thinking too optimistically.”

Fu Qian shook his head in response.

As it turned out, right after Qiu Chengyi made that powerful declaration, his gaze had locked onto Fu Qian instead.

“Being indecisive is not a good habit!”

Fu Qian sighed.

He understood Qiu Chengyi’s choice quite well.

Liang Yuntian was still trapped, a problem that could be dealt with at any moment.

Compared to that, he was the variable that was harder to control.

“Yes, so I’ll concentrate on dealing with you first.”

Qiu Chengyi said with a smile.

“Although I don’t feel any threat from you, if I let you go now, finding you again would be quite troublesome.”

“Next, I’ll complete the synchronization one by one until I have full control over this place. I don’t want any possible interference during the process. Do you understand?”

“I understand.”

Fu Qian nodded while retreating, dodging a rat that leapt out of the water.

However, that was just the beginning. The next moment, the entire pool of stagnant water—not limited to the interior of the bubbles—began to churn.

The Two-Legged Rats had returned, this time with Fu Qian as their target.

Though Fu Qian had been cautious to avoid the water and had not been caught immediately, facing hundreds, if not thousands of these creatures, he was instantly in a perilous situation.

“Go!”

The Interlocutor’s shouts became even more succinct.

“You can’t die anyway, why do you seem more scared than I am?”

Fu Qian asked curiously while dodging the rats.

“Do you know how much effort it takes to come in here each time? Although my current state means that death isn’t as big of a deal, it’s still far from pleasant! Quit the chatter and hurry up!”

“Okay!”

Fu Qian responded and instead of advancing, he retreated, leaping into the pool of stagnant water.

“You…”

For that instant, the Interlocutor’s voice was full of helplessness.

But Fu Qian continued without stopping, rushing into the center of the water, followed by a crimson storm.

For a moment, even Liang Yuntian, with bloodshot eyes, looked over.

Without hesitation, Fu Qian reached out and touched the barrier in front of him, feeling its exceptional toughness.

“It’s useless; everything here follows my will.”

That was when Qiu Chengyi’s voice came.

“Using him to attract fire isn’t going to work.”

Really? Everything follows your will?

Facing Qiu Chengyi’s mockery, Fu Qian flipped his hand, and put the white Worm Whistle into his mouth.

The next moment, a buzzing sound echoed throughout the space.

Although it wasn’t loud, it did stir an invisible ripple.

Fu Qian was running out of cards, so he decisively used the Worm Whistle given to him by Liu Yi.

According to Liu Yi, the sound of the Worm Whistle would summon something from underground to help.

They were currently underground, so it should arrive instantly, in theory.

Before Fu Qian could finish his thought, the entire space started to vibrate, and a rumbling sound came from beneath his feet.

The moment he sensed the movement, Fu Qian leapt away decisively.

The previously ferocious rats, as if facing their natural predator, gave up their attack and scattered in all directions.

The next second, stones flew as a head the size of a truck’s front burst from the ground.

Although the body that followed the head was smooth and elongated, Fu Qian was certain it wasn’t a snake but rather looked like a gigantic insect.

The back half of its body was still buried underground when the giant worm’s elliptical head opened into four parts, swallowing countless rodents in one gulp, along with the seemingly indestructible water bubbles, which got crushed in the process.

This thing is even more vicious than imagined! It seemed to be on the same level as Sister Ox-head.

Witnessing this scene, Fu Qian couldn’t help but admire it silently.

However, the creature didn’t seem to distinguish friend from foe; if he had remained still just now, he would likely have ended up filling the gaps in its teeth along with the rats.

It didn’t seem reliable at all.

Just as he had this thought, the rampaging giant worm shook its head and retracted back the way it came.

That was too fast!

Fu Qian looked at the Worm Whistle in his hand, realizing that the powerful effects never last long.

It felt like the whistle wasn’t so much for summoning the giant worm to help, but just to provide it with coordinates for prey.

But it didn’t matter, the goal had been achieved.

“This thing is quite interesting!”

At that moment, Qiu Chengyi’s voice was heard.

“Just with the power of flesh and blood, to achieve such an extent, even I am a bit surprised. It’s a pity though—”

The one who had chosen to temporarily avoid the sharp edge, Qiu Chengyi, stepped forward again.

“It’s quite clear it’s not under your control, otherwise, it really could’ve caused me some trouble.”

“If you have any other tricks up your sleeve, you’d better use them now.”

As Qiu Chengyi reminded Fu Qian, he flicked his fingers and the rodents that had scattered and fled before began to regroup.

Not only that, but a withered arm emerged from the ground, silently reaching towards Fu Qian’s ankle.

Fu Qian agilely dodged it, then noticed that such arms were everywhere around him, so densely packed that there was hardly any space left to step down.

At a glance, it looked like a sugarcane field ready for harvest.

Roar!

Just then, a shrill howl sounded, and a shadow leapt out from behind a decaying building, charging straight at Qiu Chengyi.

It was unmistakably Liang Yuntian, completely unrecognizable.

He had finally arrived!

Fu Qian breathed a sigh of relief.

The reason he had run to the center of the accumulated water to blow the whistle wasn’t for the thrill of it.

Instead of relying on an untested summon to defeat Qiu Chengyi, his real goal was to let Liang Yuntian loose.

It was well known that Liang Yuntian had almost no hatred towards him.

In his nearly zero-sanity eyes, Qiu Chengyi was an extremely tasty delicacy, while he didn’t even count as food.

In fact, the situation was developing exactly as anticipated.

Liang Yuntian, once free, was completely focused on attacking Qiu Chengyi.

“Are you not leaving now…?”

The Interlocutor’s voice, when it sounded again, was much calmer and even seemed a bit hesitant.

It was clear that his previous experiences had taught him that shouting at Fu Qian was completely useless.

“I’m not leaving.”

Fu Qian responded just as decisively, focused on enjoying the epic battle before him.

“Go about your business, don’t mind me.”

He even made a courtesy gesture when Qiu Chengyi glanced over at him.

…

However, Qiu Chengyi no longer seemed as calm and composed as before.

Compared to Fu Qian, Liang Yuntian was much stronger, both in speed and in killing power.

Especially now that he was loose, the swarm of rats couldn’t even keep up with him, let alone surround him for an attack.

“Heh, is this your strategy? Letting the dog bite people?”

Even so, after dodging a round of bone spear thrusts from Liang Yuntian, Qiu Chengyi still managed to laugh again.

“It must be said that you’re quite good at using momentum, much better compared to these brainless animals.”

“What a pity though, although strength isn’t everything, it is indeed the prerequisite for everything.”

“All the scheming and intrigue are useless without power, in the end, you’re just a small fry!”
