Chapter 32 Gou

Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

...

Just as this thought emerged, the Swamp Devourer "Car" rapidly shrank to normal size.

Inside, however, it remained spacious.

It seems that even after its stomach sac has been taken, the spatial traits ingrained in its blood still couldn't be stripped away, awarding it with a Biological Mecha!

"This formula must be noted down, it is the perfect disguise."

"Using the corpses of the same species, as long as there are enough of them, they can produce results through Stacked Synthesis, although they shouldn't be too incomplete."

"Ideally, it should be a giant monster, or even a small-sized Demon Monster with spatial traits would suffice."

Lin Suo linked his spiritual power to the Frog Machine's brain, operating this Biological Frog Machine for a moment, and the body's response was perfect!

This would be even better for ambushes.

Suddenly, Lin Suo remembered his first Evil God Synthesis, the Double Horse Biological War Car!

At that time, perhaps due to insufficient corpses of the same species, it automatically absorbed wood, stones, and fabric, among other things.

This Frog Machine also needed food, just like a real living thing.

It could be operated by a mere thought.

This matter should not be exposed for now. Although the Wizard World might have similar things, it was better to keep it hidden due to insufficient strength.

Lin Suo closed his eyes, beginning to sense all synthesized creatures.

Three seconds later.

He sensed the location of the Double Horse Chariot, his thought moved, and the light point vanished; the first Biological Mecha stationed far in the Magma Kingdom turned silently into dust.

The risk eliminated.

A hundred gold coins, bringing the buyer joy for half a year, was worth it as an experience card.

"So it turns out, currently the most valuable stable synthesis recipes are only four."

"Biological Mecha, Earth Crystal, Artificial Magic Stone, Black Octopus Flower."

Stacked Synthesis, Evil God Synthesis, Logical Synthesis, all these categories have produced their masterpieces.

This half year hasn't been in vain.

"Let's go test out the effects of the Frog Machine."

Just as Lin Suo was engrossed in his thoughts, on the other side of the Salt Marsh, within the territory of the Earth Cave Spider.

A monstrous creature, the lower half a snake, and the upper half a four-armed woman, crawled out from the depths of the swamp.

Dark hair hung down to the ground, covering two unsightly, pallid objects.

Her face bore four eyes, crimson as blood.

The snake body was covered with interlaced red and yellow scales, emitting an exceptionally strong spiritual power fluctuation.

This was a Demon Monster resulted from the corruption of a human Wizard Apprentice.

Possessing low-level intelligence, it could use witchcraft.

Widely distributed in the coastal areas around Koster, it was known as "Nure-Onna", though common folk preferred to call her Snake Demon!

Judging solely by the spiritual power fluctuation.

She was just one step away from breaking through to the official Wizard Level, her strength was very formidable.

After emerging, the Snake Demon flicked her crimson tongue.

Locking onto her direction, her two-ren (Chinese measure, about 7 feet) long body whisked into the swamp disappearing from view.

At the camp.

The burly wizard sitting in the center of the high tower suddenly opened his eyes.

His lips curled into a fierce smile.

"My dear, you're nearly breaking through, huh? No wonder there's been no response for so long, after this matter, it should be your turn..."

Hiss~

His tongue licked around, his red eyes growing more fervent with desire.

...

"Quack!"

"Frog Machine Charge!"

Lin Suo roared excitedly from the bottom of his heart, his body appeared in the mouth of the Frog Machine, and at the moment of impact, his hands came together.

The ground suddenly surged like waves.

Bringing across a bewildered wild frog.

With a splattering punch, he directly opened a hole in its head, and with a pull, the corpse seemingly devoured by the Frog Machine, actually appeared intact inside the driving cabin.

"Twentieth eighth one now."

"Swamp Frogs have no guard against their own kind, making such sneak attacks extremely efficient. After hunting two more, gathering thirty stomach sacs and synthesizing thirty times should be more than enough."

"Then, I'll check out the Earth Cave Spider area."

Earth Cave Spiders nest in the marshes, their spat out spider silk possessing extremely high corrosion resistance and waterproof properties.

Coupled with their innate Spider Web Skill.

This makes spider silk a very good material; if it could be synthesized and strengthened, then combined with the spatial stomach sacs, Lin Suo has a strong premonition.

That he could create a true space storage device.

Staying in the Salt Marsh for the fourth day.

Lin Suo organized his belongings, hiding them all in the stomach sacs, and left the Frog Machine in the underground safety chamber.

He'll come back later, so leaving it here is fine.

With food being seventeen corpses of the same kind, over fifteen tons, in a stationary state, it's enough for it to eat for three years, or even longer.

The Earth Cave Spider area isn't suitable for operating the Frog Machine.

When the time comes, getting a Spider Machine would be the right choice.

The safety chamber needs to be equipped as well, life comes first after all~

At noon, Lin Suo first returned to the camp, updated the map, and then headed back to the Salt Marsh from another direction.

Earth Cave Spider habitat.

Lin Suo lay low in the ground, paving the way by Mud Stone Transformation, exploring the locations of underground spider lairs, always feeling something was off.

"It's too quiet, not like the noisy Swamp Frog area, something's not right..."

Lin Suo, out of caution, dived a hundred meters underground, quickly constructed a hideout that could conceal his presence.

Building with wizard construction gear is indeed fast.

Then, using the principles of a periscope, he outlined a Z-shaped passage to reflect and observe ground conditions.

The first special mirror piece (obtained by synthesis), which absorbs light and doesn't reflect flash points, looks troubling, as the image is very dim.

Lin Suo observed for a long time and saw no one.

This wasn't normal.

There are always numerous Wizard Apprentices mixed in the Monster Salt Swamp daily, and Earth Cave Spider Silk is a great material for making witch robes, it doesn't make sense for no one to be here.

Either the too quiet environment is being suppressed by the breath of some creature, making even insects afraid to make a sound.

Or, a highly venomous entity appeared which eradicates all living things in its path.

Both guesses aren't good.

Luckily, Lin Suo is patient enough.

He had prepared sufficient supplies and thus started living underground, meditating daily, practicing the Breathing Skill, and improving his wizardry proficiency.

In the blink of an eye, three days passed.

That day.

Lin Suo, as usual, observed the ground conditions and luckily, he finally saw people, a team from Ocean Academy consisting of two men and one woman.

Acquaintances.

"With this, I feel relieved..."

Then, Lin Suo's expression froze just as he relaxed.

The three individuals who were just talking and laughing seemed to have their heads severed by some sharp weapon; in the periscope's view, in less than a second, three heads neatly rolled down.

Blood gushing out high from the necks~

Spraying urgently and quickly.

It made his heart almost leap out.

Go!

Must go!

Something has definitely gone wrong!

Lin Suo did not hesitate, packed up the periscope, filled up the dirt, and continued digging deeper.

Until he was a thousand meters deep, only then did he dig in another direction.

Rapid progress was made with Mud Stone Transformation all along.

When thirsty, he drank; when hungry, he ate; when his spiritual power was drained, he meditated to recover, and when underground air was insufficient, he used the Underwater Breathing Technique, plunging his head into water, a single breath could last for three hours.

Along the way, he didn't forget to sprinkle Deodorant Powder.

Not knowing how long it had been.

Perhaps a few thousand meters, perhaps he had progressed tens of thousands of meters.
