Chapter 207 Dark Tide Water Lizard
Tick-tock——
In the dark underground, water drops seeping from the rocks are about to fall to the ground.
A pink tongue suddenly appears from the side and rolls the water drops in its mouth.
This is a soft and flexible tongue with small protrusions and sticky substances at the tip.
But its owner is not like a frog.
If someone can raise a torch here, they will find that this is a wrinkled lizard that seems to have been stripped of scales.
And because it lives underground for many years.
The color of its body is almost transparent, and the shape of the internal organs can be directly seen without opening the abdomen.
"Hiss——"
This nearly transparent lizard made a long hissing sound.
In the dark space behind it, more slight footsteps came from dozens of transparent lizards that look similar to it.
These creatures active underground are naturally magic beasts.
However, they are not patrolling the territory, but have crossed the original population boundaries and are heading towards the neighbor's territory with fierce eyes.
"Hiss - I can smell their scent in the air."
"Very close!"
"Greedy mole, just ahead!"
The lizard that roared in a low voice is called [Dark Tide Water Lizard].
They are a race that has lived underground in Qianshan Stone Forest for a long time, and mainly survive by hunting blind fish and insects underground.
One year ago.
In an encounter that took place underground, their leader unfortunately died.
Without the fifth-stage leader, life underground is no longer as easy as before, and even normal population migration cannot be maintained.
And after wandering around for a long time.
Just a month ago, these dark tide water lizards finally waited for an opportunity.
The mole tribe that originally lived here, their leader's strength almost reached the peak of the fifth stage, and now they tried to advance to the sixth stage.
But the result was a pity.
Although there was the help of the Three Pillar Lake, the leader of the mole tribe still lost his life due to the dragon beast's extraction of the source.
On the contrary, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the dark tide water lizards.
Both tribes have lost their leaders. If they can start a battle as soon as possible and quickly seize each other's territory, they can live here and speed up the birth of a new leader.
Thinking of this, the dark tide water lizard who was leading the team was overwhelmed:
"They have occupied Sanzhu Lake for too long. It's time to give up this place."
"We are almost there, we are almost there!"
"We must give birth to a new leader as soon as possible!"
In the dark world under the ground, the dark tide water lizards moved forward quickly.
Due to the terrain structure, there are many tunnels and holes in the underground space of Qianshan Stone Forest. Not long after, these dark tide water lizards came to the territory of the mole tribe.
However, there is still one last step in front of them.
A thick earth wall separates the mole tribe's nest from the tunnel outside. This is the last obstacle to cross before launching an attack.
"Hiss, hiss, hiss-"
"Dig it, rush in, kill!"
The leading dark tide water lizards immediately lay on the earth wall.
They have long adapted to the underground environment and have a very useful organ.
A webbed claw.
This kind of claw allows them to swim quickly in the water. If they encounter soil and small pieces of gravel that hinder their progress, it is also the best choice to open up a path.
Hualala--
In the darkness, the dark tide water lizards move quickly, and their webbed claws can bring some soil and rocks from the front every time.
The digging sound is thin and dense.
In the blink of an eye, these dark tide water lizards can dig a small hole in the wall. After the fellow tribesmen behind them throw away the excess soil, they have dug through the wall in front of them in just over a quarter of an hour.
"Squeak?"
Across the earth wall is a young mole.
In the vicinity of Sanzhu Lake, moles have always been the most powerful tribe.
This young guy has no idea what the death of the leader means to their tribe?
So after noticing the sound of digging the soil.
It didn't think of the possible danger, but ran over with the slackness of its past life to see what was going on.
"Hiss!"
In an instant, the pink tongue with mucus entangled the young mole.
The irresistible force dragged it into the mouth of the Dark Tide Lizard, and then the toothless mouth smacked a few times and swallowed the young mole alive.
The Dark Tide Lizard, which swallowed the little mole whole, said:
"Kill!"
"Kill them all, this is ours!"
Dozens of Dark Tide Lizards rushed in.
They filed in, broke into the mole's nest, and killed all the living things they could see.
The mole, a magical beast, mainly has agile movements and flexible fur, and attacks the enemy with its extremely sharp claws and teeth. Only when it reaches the third and fourth stages will it begin to gain the ability to manipulate soil and rocks.
In the current mole population, this ability is only possessed by a few outstanding ones.
On the other hand, the Dark Tide Lizard, this species has survived a year of hardship, and now the remaining ones are the elite among the elites.
Such a population suddenly attacked the mole.
What it brought was an almost one-sided battle.
Wherever the Dark Tide Lizard passed, all the gophers were slaughtered.
Young and smaller gophers were swallowed by them, while larger ones were swarmed and torn to pieces alive.
A few minutes later.
The gopher guards who were on guard above also discovered the changes in the underground nest.
They realized that the situation was critical and returned to the surface.
However, after a few minutes of slaughter, the dark tide water lizards almost occupied the advantageous terrain in the nest, and these gopher guards who guarded their homes became the party that needed to conquer the nest.
The gophers who were attacked suffered heavy losses.
Under the premise of the continuous expansion of the advantage in the battle situation, a dark tide water lizard noticed a problem.
Gophers do send guards to guard the top of the nest.
But underground in the Qianshan Stone Forest, there should also be gophers responsible for safety.
But now they launched an attack, and most of these gopher guards gathered above the nest, as if they were guarding against something.
"Hiss, hiss, hiss-"
"Is there something on the ground?"
A dark tide water lizard was a little uneasy.
Although the Three Pillars Lake area is occupied by underground races, the most valuable part is the Three Pillars Lake on the surface.
If something goes wrong there...
Their plan to give birth to a new leader as soon as possible will be in trouble!
And they cannot get the protection of a strong man as soon as possible.
Even if they can occupy the territory of the moles, their future fate will not have any good results.
The most ideal situation.
That is, just like this year, hiding and escaping everywhere in the underground of the Thousand Mountains and Stone Forest.
"No!"
"The danger must be eliminated!"
The dark tide water lizard noticed the problem.
It immediately roared a few times and called a few of its fellows with good fighting power.
Then they killed their way through the area where the battle was going on and climbed to the ground from a wet mound.
"Hiss?"
The dark tide water lizard could not understand the scene in front of it.
Because there were no other monsters here to compete for the territory.
Instead, there were two human figures, a man and a woman, who were looking at them inexplicably.
