Chapter 108: The End of the Strong

Zhu Hui's face sank. The appearance of the Golden Peng seemed to indicate that the Mutant Beasts didn't care about a fight. Could it be that their strength had become so great that they could deal with humans?

This was not a good sign!

Zhu Hui knew that he couldn't match the speed of the Golden Peng. Once it broke into Wangchang City, there was basically no way for Wangchang City to resist.

But he didn't want to let the Lizard Dragon go just like that. The situation suddenly became tense.

The Lizard Dragon suddenly let out a harsh laugh: "I just said, you'd better let me go. Otherwise, Base City will definitely bury me. I heard that all of you are the guardians of Base City. Do you want to watch Base City be destroyed in front of your eyes?"

Zhu Hui couldn't help but feel that the Lizard Dragon's words struck a chord with him. He had always been protecting humans and protecting Base City.

But in the current situation, he felt somewhat powerless. The Golden Peng's fighting ability was not necessarily stronger than his, but its speed was unbeatable, especially its explosive power. If it was harmful to Base City, Zhu Hui had no way to stop it.

What should he do?

Release the Lizard Dragon and let the Golden Peng leave with it, swaggering away?

Or kill the Lizard Dragon and exchange one Base City for an eighth-order Mutant Beast?

If he were a cruel person, he might choose the second option, but as a high-level human, Zhu Hui couldn't do it.

"I can release the Lizard Dragon, but if you make a move against anyone here, even if it means sacrificing my own life, I'll take you down with me!" Zhu Hui's eyes were icy as he looked at the Golden Peng.

The Golden Peng saw the determination in Zhu Hui's eyes and knew that Zhu Hui was not joking. It certainly wouldn't foolishly fight to the death with Zhu Hui. Its main purpose for coming here was for the benefit of the Lizard Dragon.

"I can promise you that."

Zhu Hui was at the same level as the Golden Peng. If it really went all out, he would be in danger of falling himself, which was not worth it.

The two Controllers who had been silent all this time felt sweat dripping down their backs. They never thought the situation would be so intense. They suddenly saw two eighth-order Mutant Beasts, one of which was the famous Golden Peng.

Seeing their supreme Controller give up killing the Lizard Dragon to protect them, they felt deeply ashamed!

If they had the strength of the eighth order, would the Golden Peng still dare to be so arrogant?

The Golden Peng was able to be so arrogant because it had two eighth-order Mutant Beasts on its side, even though the Lizard Dragon had already been caught.

Zhu Hui took a deep breath and let go of the Lizard Dragon. The Lizard Dragon looked at Zhu Hui mockingly and prepared to leave.

At that moment, no one expected that someone would make a move.

Splat!

An octopus tentacle pierced through Zhu Hui's chest and blood splattered onto the Lizard Dragon's face before it had a chance to leave.

Not only were the humans stunned, but the two eighth-order Mutant Beasts were also surprised by this turn of events.

Zhu Hui turned around and saw Wang Dezhi looking at him with a strange expression. His right hand was no longer a human hand, but had turned into an octopus tentacle!

Before Zhu Hui could retaliate, Wang Dezhi suddenly created some distance between them. It was only at this moment that the two Controllers reacted and protected Zhu Hui.

"Lord Zhu, are you okay?" The two Controllers were sweating profusely. The situation was too bad now.

With two eighth-order Mutant Beasts watching them, and Wang Dezhi turning into this state, he had actually severely injured Lord Zhu. This was their biggest crisis. If anything went wrong, not only would they be done for, but Wangchang City would also be done for.

Splat!

Zhu Hui suddenly spouted a mouthful of blood and slapped his chest, stopping the bleeding. However, his face was still extremely pale.

The two Controllers could see that Zhu Hui's front and back chests had been pierced, and his internal organs had turned to mush. The reason Zhu Hui was still alive was due to his powerful eighth-order Transcendent physique.

If it were the two Controllers, they would have lost their fighting ability immediately.

"This octopus tentacle, are you the Octopus King?" Zhu Hui stood up with difficulty and looked at Wang Dezhi, gritting his teeth.

Wang Dezhi's mouth curled up, and his mouth almost twisted to his head.

It seems that Wang Dezhi is still the same on the surface, but in Zhu Hui's eyes, Wang Dezhi's body has turned into a soft-bodied animal, and his inner self has become an octopus.

"I didn't expect Master Zhu Hui to still remember me. I am truly honored. Your human bodies are so fragile. Just a touch from me and you're done for," said Wang Dezhi, or rather, the Octopus King, in a sarcastic tone.

Upon hearing the name Octopus King, the two Controllers' faces changed. As Controllers, they knew some of the names of the Eighth Order Mutant Beasts, including the Octopus King.

It was said to be a very powerful Mutant Beast in the ocean, with strength reaching the late Eighth Order. Almost no one in the sea could kill it, and its most disgusting ability was parasitism!

Anyone parasitized by the Octopus King would not be found no matter how thoroughly they were checked, which was the scariest thing about it.

Zhu Hui never thought that someone in Wangchang City, an inland city, would be parasitized by the Octopus King.

The only relief was that the parasitized body of the Octopus King could not communicate with its main body, or else the situation here would be worse.

Only when the Octopus King took back the parasitized body could it get all the memories from it.

Moreover, the parasitized person did not even know that they had been parasitized. Only when it was critical would the parasitized body break out.

In fact, this was related to Su Chen. There were only two parasitized bodies in Wangchang City, and they were both asleep. However, when the parasitized body of the Controller was killed, it alarmed the parasitized body inside Wang Dezhi, which had been almost half-awake during this time.

The opportunity just now was taken by the parasitized body. As a Mutant Beast, the Octopus King naturally wanted to weaken human strength as much as possible.

If humans knew that they had lost a powerful Eighth Order Mid-Term expert, they would probably be very upset.

Thinking of this, the parasitized body laughed loudly.

"Octopus King, you've done very well. I didn't expect one of your parasitized bodies to still be useful," said the proud Golden Peng.

The Lizard Dragon also understood that it seemed to have the upper hand now, which meant it could take revenge.

"Zhu Hui, you didn't expect this, did you? The situation has now reversed, and I want you to die!" The Lizard Dragon opened its big mouth, revealing its teeth like spikes.

Zhu Hui was now supported by two Controllers, but at this moment, both of their faces showed nervousness. In this situation, could the injured Master Zhu still turn the tide?

"Let go of me and return to Base City," Zhu Hui said calmly.

"Master Zhu!" The two did not want to leave, as they were deserters.

"This is an order!"

Helpless, the two had to run towards Base City. If the Octopus King dared to make a move, Zhu Hui suddenly spoke up: "If you take one step, I'll self-destruct right here!" (To be continued)
