Chapter 11
C11 Mutated Salamander
The mutated wolf king was nearly five meters long, and its eyes were filled with a chilling light.
It glared at Loong Chen angrily. It had just witnessed many of its compatriots being killed by this human in front of it.
The mutated wolf king let out a wild roar, and suddenly leapt up towards Loong Chen. Its long and sharp claws seemed to be able to tear through everything.
“Go and die!”
Loong Chen was not afraid at all. He waved the Battle Saber and fought with it. Its sharp claws clashed with the Battle Saber, and sparks were emitted.
“Earth Spike.”
A sharp Earth Spike suddenly appeared from the ground. The mutated wolf king seemed to have sensed danger. It wanted to retreat, but Loong Chen grabbed its leg.
The Earth Spike pierced through the mutated wolf king’s abdomen.
Although it was a Level 1 mutated beast with strong defensive power, the weakest part of a wolf was its abdomen, and the mutated wolf king was no exception.
The mutated wolf king’s abdomen was seriously injured, causing it to lose its ability to fight. Loong Chen did not hesitate to swing his blade and cut off its head.
“System successfully picked it up. Strength attribute + 150.”
“System successfully picked up. Agility attribute + 120.”
“System successfully picked up, empirical value + 1500.”
“System successfully picked up. Obtained Level 1 energy essence x1.”
Loong Chen picked up all the attributes dropped by the mutated wolf king. His harvest was not bad.
“Senior Loong Chen, can you put me down now?” Bai Xiaohan asked.
“You walk too slowly. You should stay in this state for the rest of the journey.”
After saying that, Loong Chen casted the Cat Shadow Step. His entire body seemed to float in the air, and soon, he disappeared into the forest.
Ten minutes later, Loong Chen finally arrived at a dilapidated palace.
Although this palace was in ruins, Loong Chen could still vaguely see that it was a very glorious palace before it was destroyed.
“Is this the place where Tyrannical Saber Devil King hid his treasures?”
Loong Chen put Bai Xiaohan down and asked.
“According to the information we have, this was originally one of Tyrannical Saber Devil King’s palaces. After he disappeared, this palace fell into decline.”
Bai Xiaohan nodded and said.
They entered the gate. Behind the gate was a square. Loong Chen’s eyes were instantly attracted by a figure in the square.
It was a huge lizard. Even if it was lying on the ground, its body was more than 20 meters long. At this time, it seemed to be taking an afternoon nap, and its snores were deafening.
Bai Xiaohan saw this huge creature and was so scared that she almost screamed. Loong Chen saw it and quickly covered her mouth.
If she woke up the big lizard, they would all be in a very bad situation. Loong Chen estimated that this giant lizard was at least a Level 2 mutated beast, or even stronger.
“Where is the treasure vault?” Loong Chen asked in a low voice.
“It is in the innermost part of the palace, but this giant lizard is guarding outside. How are we going to get in?”
Bai Xiaohan revealed a worried look.
Loong Chen quickly thought about it. If he faced this giant lizard head-on, he was not sure if he was a match for this giant lizard, not to mention he had to protect Bai Xiaohan.
So he could not fight the giant lizard face to face.
Loong Chen said, “Then we can only sneak in while it is asleep.”
If he used the Cat Shadow Step, he might be able to do it.
But he needed to make sufficient preparations.
“System, I want to upgrade the Cat Shadow Step.”
Loong Chen shouted in his heart.
“You have consumed 500 empirical value, and the Cat Shadow Step has been upgraded to level 2.”
“You have consumed 1000 empirical value, and your Cat Shadow Step has been upgraded to level 3.”
Loong Chen had raised the Cat Shadow Step to level 3, and his speed was now three times faster than his own. This boosted his confidence greatly.
He carried Bai Xiaohan on his shoulder and used the Cat Shadow Step. His body turned into a shadow and passed by the giant lizard, only causing a slight breeze.
The giant lizard only moved slightly, but it did not wake up.
Only then did Loong Chen let out a sigh of relief. He continued to walk towards the inner part of the palace and soon reached the innermost part.
A dark throne was placed at the top of the palace.
