Black Creature With Wisdom?

The endless vast sea connected with the sky, forming a picturesque scene. Waves rolled in, bringing in strings of sparkling bubbles onto the snow-white soft beach

The mixed-raced girl, Helen was curled up under a coconut tree on the deserted island as she softly sobbed. Her white and beautiful face was red and swollen, while her knees were scrapped as blood oozed out.

"Helen, I'm sorry! I was in the wrong earlier, can you forgive me?" Thomas stood beside Helen and there were traces of embarrassment on his handsome and suave face.

The whole island started to shake just now and he thought that an earthquake or volcano eruption had occurred. Out of nervousness and panic, he had left Helen behind and ran away. But right now, the deserted island returned to normal and the earthquake seemed to have passed.

Thomas fell into an awkward situation and he did not know how to face the girl he liked.

"Thomas, I never expected you to be someone like that. Get away from me: as far as possible. I will never forgive you, never!" Helen stopped crying and her red, swollen eyes glared at Thomas as she said unquestionably.

"Helen, I…" Thomas wanted to explain, yet Helen turned her back against him and did not spare him a glance!

...

In the bottom of the sinkhole.

The black creature blinked its rounded eyes and tilted its head to one side as it looked at Xue Yue, seemingly understanding what he said.

Xue Yue could not help but feel shocked when the unknown creature had shown such a human-like expression as he said repeatedly, "These are my spikes. If you want to eat them, you have to obey my orders!"

Gu gu~~ The black creature cooed and blinked its eyes twice as if it had really understood!!

"Good, very good!" Xue Yue nodded in satisfaction and pointed to the monster not far away from them. He then ordered, "There! Go and kill it!"

The black creature glanced at the monster, cocked its head to one side, and thought for a moment. Shortly after, it disappeared from the spot and when it appeared again, it had already arrived before its foe!

"F*ck, it really went?" Xue Yue's eyes widened and revealed a dumbfounded expression. Even monsters these days have become smart and can understand human speech? Speaking of which, what kind of creature is that little fella?

Just as Xue Yue was pondering, the battle on the other side had begun!

The unknown monster shaped like a lobster was ten meters tall, equivalent to three stories high, and its whole body was covered with rock-solid bulges, just like a humanoid tank covered with rocks. Its pair of arms were extremely thick and at the sight of the black creature, a flash of tyranny streaked across its eyes and it swiftly launched an attack!

The black creature was floating mid-air and its front paws ejected two sharp claws before heading straight for the lobster monster. A flash of black shadow passed by and an ear-piercing sound could be heard. Following this, a large wound of one meter long could be seen on the monster's chest.

As for the black creature, it appeared on the monster's shoulders in an instant. It spread open its calves and gracefully walked on the monster's broad shoulders. However, its golden eyes looked in Xue Yue's direction, while its gaze revealed human-like teasing. It even released cooing sounds, as if… it was smiling?

"Smiling? It's smiling? What is it smiling for?" Xue Yue blanked out for a moment and he even thought that he had seen wrong. He then rubbed his eyes and glanced over. The black creature even bared its teeth, seemingly smiling at him!

"F*ck!" Xue Yue didn't know what to say!

Blue blood oozed out the wound. The lobster monster did not have a mouth, but it had somehow released an ear-piercing shrill. The loud scream echoed throughout the sinkhole and its thick arms of seven to eight meters long had ruthlessly slammed towards the black creature.

Slash—

The black creature was like a phantom where its movements were unable to be seen by the naked eye. A black shadow flashed past, and another slashing sound was heard. A wound of two meters long had opened on the monster's back and its blue blood instantly flowed out!

The lobster monster repeatedly roared in anger, but to no avail. The black creature, who strolled idly as if in a courtyard, and was as elegant as a gentleman, had appeared on the monster's other shoulder. Its pair of round golden eyes were still looking at Xue Yue as it cooed and pranced around as if saying, "How is it? Ain't I awesome?"

"F*ck! What kind of creature is this? It's as if it has gained wisdom!" Xue Yue opened his mouth wide while a ridiculous idea came to mind, This unknown creature has an abnormally high IQ and it can understand the human language!

Not only did it understand Xue Yue's words, but it was also mocking him for overestimating his own abilities.

If you want to eat the spikes, you have to obey?

"Why do I feel that… this creature is trying to show off its abilities as a threat?" Xue Yue touched his nose.

Wasn't it so?

The black creature could have easily killed the lobster monster, yet it constantly delayed the killing blow. Just like a cat teasing a mouse, where the prey played with the predator in its palms, it was similar to the current situation…

Two long wounds appeared on the front and back while blue-colored blood flowed out freely. The lobster monster screamed as it looked up to the sky. Two of its thick and heavy arms waved around repeatedly as if trying to slap the black creature to death. However, the monster's speed was too slow and it could not keep up with the black creature.

Gu gu~~ The black creature bared its teeth at Xue Yue standing at a distance and disappeared once again.

Slash—

A thin cut starting from one side of its head and ending on the other side, the head of the lobster monster was sliced apart.

Reeeee!

A loud roar reverberated throughout the sinkhole and the echo lasted for a short moment. But despite how loud the screams were, it could not change the fate of the lobster monster getting toyed to death. It wanted to escape back to the crack, but its struggle was useless. A shadow flashed past and its thick legs were easily cut off.

Slash—

Slash—

After a few consecutive slashes, the lobster monster died unavenged.

Thud!

It's huge body crashed to the ground and the entire surface shook thrice. Large amount of blue blood could be seen on the ground as it corroded the surface.

However, the black creature did not even look at the scene as it stretched out its calf and elegantly walked towards Xue Yue step by step.

"You… you…" Xue Yue's expression changed. He stared at the slowly approaching black creature and retreated.

Gu gu~~

The black creature was one meter away from Xue Yue and it suddenly flapped its pair of wings, flew up, and floated in front of him. Its round pair of eyes blinked twice before it stretched out its right paw and patted Xue Yue's head gently.

"No!"

Xue Yue was extremely fearful of its paws. Even though its four sharp claws had been retracted, how would he possibly dare for it to land on his head? His head shrunk and instinctively retreated.

But the speed of the black creature was faster and Xue Yue merely stiffened before its small paws had landed on his head. There was no strong force that he expected nor was there any sharp pain that invaded his body. On the contrary, it was soft, similar to a cat's paw.

Gu gu~~

Xue Yue looked up and saw the black creature blinking and looking at him. There was no tyranny or bloodthirstiness as compared to before and what it contained was merely… a smiling intent!

A teasing smile to be exact!

Xue Yue stiffened. Why does this gaze feel weird? It was like… a boss looking at their workers?

"F*ck…" A cold shiver involuntarily crept up and just then, his shoulders felt heavy. The black creature had stood on his shoulders and sat down.

It had climbed onto Xue Yue's shoulders as if it was natural, just like a domesticated cat resting on its owner's shoulders.

"God! I would never dare to keep such a savage pet like you! Gosh, what should I do now?"

Xue Yue's brain had somewhat short circuited and he did not know what to do. According to reason, this black creature is extremely dangerous and the wisest choice was to stay as far away from it as possible.

However, it was lying on his shoulders and did not seem as if it was about to leave…

Moreover, based on its speed as fast as lightning, it was simply a joke if he wanted to escape. Not to mention they were at the bottom of the sinkhole, where could he possibly escape to?

"Forget it, I'll come to a decision as I go. This fella can easily bite off my spikes and killing me is as easy as lifting a finger. In addition, it has not killed me yet… this can be considered a good thing! Sigh~~"

Xue Yue sighed helplessly as he could only comfort himself as such. Soon, he turned and carefully peeked at the black creature on his right shoulder and saw that it had its eyes squinted, seemingly in a state of rest. It appeared very docile and Xue Yue could not help but secretly breathe out a sigh of relief.

"Speaking of which, where does that crack lead to? Why did two terrifying monsters come out one after another?"

Now that his mood had slightly relaxed, Xue Yue looked at the two monster corpses and he was filled with strong curiosity.

Evidently, neither the sickle-shaped monster or the lobster monster were living beings that could be seen on Earth. This could be determined based on the blue-colored blood.

"I'd like to see where that crack leads to…"

Due to curiosity, Xue Yue came to the edge of the crack and looked down.

With a glance, he was suddenly overwhelmed.

The crack was bottomless and it was impossible to gauge how deep it was with a glance. Moreover, the deeper it was, the brighter it was. It was as if a star that radiated endless light was buried at the bottom of the crack. It was so blinding that he could not even open his eyes!

"How did those two monsters climb up from such a deep crevice?" Xue Yue narrowed his eyes and no longer looked down. But despite so, he was feeling increasingly confused!

The crevice was incomparably deep. It was reasonable for the sickle-shaped monster to come out as it could fly, but that lobster monster did not possess any wings. In addition, it was very heavy and its movements were slow. Not to mention climbing out the crack, he estimated it would be hard for it to even walk faster.

Also, where did the light come from?

How could there be any light source within a crack underground?

The more he thought, the more mysterious he found it to be and he could not figure anything out.

"Forget it, this is all unrelated to me. I'd better think of how to escape this sinkhole!"

Xue Yue mocked himself. Regardless what secrets the crack contained, it was basically unrelated to him. The current priority for him was to think of a way to escape the sinkhole. With that in mind, Xue Yue went to the spot where he fell and looked up.

He could vaguely see a small white spot above, where he did not know how far away it was. It was the world outside the sinkhole.

The white spot meant that it was still bright outside!

"I wonder how high this pit wall is… Moreover, it is a 90 degree vertical and it is impossible for me to get out. If I can grow spikes on my hands and feet, perhaps I might still have a glimmer of hope!"

When he was thinking silently, Xue Yue heard a soft sound!

Zing zing!
