TOP SECRET: Adventures in the Dark Continent

Chapter 31: The Battle Goddess's Blessing

Slash!!!! Slash!!!! Slash!!!! Slash!!!!

The sound of cuts was heard from inside the forest full of mud and rotten water. Looking closely, we can see a dirty, smelly young man killing zombies.

The young man was Liu Yang, he had been on the scene for a few days running from side to side and attacking the zombies.

Sometimes, he didn't realize that the place in front of him was rotten water mixed with mud. He ended up falling inside. His body was completely dirty and smelly.

"It feels like I'm finally getting close. I need to get out of that damn place and take a shower. " Liu Yang has hated the place. He has vomited dozens of times because of the rotten smell.

The food and water bottles he had brought with him were already running out.

Looking at the screen, Liu Yang saw that the indicator was pointing at a lake of green water.

"Is this serious ??? You can only be kidding me, "Liu Yang said bleakly.

The item he was looking for is hidden inside a lake with green water, it was not possible to know whether the water was rotten or not. Worst of all, he can't see inside the lake.

"I have dived several times before. I just hope the creature in that spot is not a problem. "Liu Yang closed his eyes and took a deep breath before jumping into the lake.

Splash !!!!

Lots of water was sent out when he jumped into the lake.

(!!!!!!) The moment Liu Yang opened his eyes. He was shocked.

The interior of the water was not rotten or anything, but crystal green.

(This is different from what I imagined. But this water must be poisonous, I feel my skin burn a little.) He felt a burning sensation around his body.

The water looked like corrosive acid, but because of his great vitality. Liu Yang was not injured.

(Time to find the item) Liu Yang swam down while following the indicator on his screen. Only the owner of the four villages can see this indicator.

There were no fish, zombies, or anything else in the lake. But there was a creature that protects the item that Liu Yang needs to get.

(I found it.) The lake was not very deep, after swimming down a bit. Liu Yang saw the bottom of the lake and saw a wooden chest.

(Where is the creature?) Liu Yang looked around and saw nothing.

(Is it hiding?) That was the only logical thought.

(It looks like I will have to attract this thing before I try to get the chest) Liu Yang went back to the surface of the lake before breathing and going back to the bottom.

Liu Yang was five meters from the chest, but the creature has not yet been found.

(It looks like this creature will only appear when I touch or open the chest, like the other time) When Liu Yang found the item inside the cave south of the village, he didn't find the creature until after opening the chest.

His eyes never left his surroundings as he approached the wooden chest.

(Let's see what will happen now)

The moment Liu Yang touched the chest, something shook from inside the lake.

Shake Shake Shake

Liu Yang did not wait for the creature to appear. He quickly opened the chest and took what was inside without thinking twice. One arm was holding the item while the other was doing the movements and swimming upwards.

The system sound echoed in his mind, but Liu Yang paid no attention to the message and continued to swim towards the surface.

Two balls of dim light appeared suddenly and followed Liu Yang from behind.

(It looks like this thing has finally appeared !!! I need to be quick !!! Fighting this thing inside the water is very disadvantageous for me !!!) Liu Yang moved his legs faster.

(I'm almost there!!!)

Liu Yang was fast, but the creature was even faster. When he was about to reach the surface, the lake's poor lighting showed the creature's true shape.

A fish. A big fish the size of a shark made of white bones, some parts still had rotten flesh and organs. The two lights were its eyes, but they were made of crystal and it was not a real eye.

The zombie fish opened its mouth and two rows of sharp teeth were shown, the teeth looked like sharp knives and ready to destroy its prey.

"!!!!!!" Liu Yang was alarmed when he saw the fish. He took the sword from his back and prepared to defend himself, but he did not stop swimming. He didn't have much time left. His body was asking him to breathe.

The fish's mouth was already open and ready to devour Liu Yang's leg.

(It won't be that easy !!!) Liu Yang mentally shouted.

The sword swung slowly in the water and hit the sharp tooth.

Zzzzzz

The sound of metal scraping against something hard was heard. A spark came out at the same time during the collision.

The fish was delayed a little, but that was not enough to stop the fish.

(It looks like I have no choice !!) Liu Yang turned and swam to the surface. He had a plan in mind.

(Arggg !!!!!!!!!) Liu Yang screamed in pain when his foot was cut by the zombie fish. He could only clench his teeth and endure the pain.

The fish only had to close its mouth tightly and the foot was pulled out. It seemed to be chewing his foot with its bony body and enjoying a meal.

Liu Yang took this opportunity and rose to the surface.

"Huhhh !!!!" Liu Yang breathed heavily through his mouth. He held his breath a lot in the water.

"I need to run !!!" Liu Yang continued to swim towards the land, the distance was not very long, only a few meters.

A blood line was left while Liu Yan was swimming, one leg was missing.

"It really hurts" Liu Yang was jumping with one foot and walking. He looks like someone who lost his crutches somewhere.

If only the skin and flesh had been pulled out, it would have been regenerated much faster, but even the bones of the foot that were pulled out. The time to regenerate the bones was much longer.

Splash !!!!

The zombie fish jumped out of the water in an attempt to follow Liu Yang.

Liu Yang managed to see its full form.

A large zombie fish looked like the skeleton of a shark, but there were some differences. On the head was a longhorn and on the spine, there was a large line of pointed spines.

The zombie fish started to squirm and crawl toward Liu Yang. It looks like it was determined to kill Liu Yang.

Liu Yang found this scene funny. A fish trying to walk on the ground was the most impossible thing to do.

With every twist in its body, zombie fish walked only a few centimeters.

"A rank 3 zombie who is like a god in the water, but out of the water, you are just an ordinary zombie with no power," Liu Yang commented. He has already killed three other rank 3 zombies in the other three areas.

Each of them had a specific location to be found.

"If I had fought in the water, you could kill me however you want, but out here. You are easy prey "Liu Yang held the sword tightly and walked towards the zombie fish.

Pierce...

Crack !!! Crack !!! Crack !!!

Liu Yang pierced the zombie fish's glass eye. It broke as if it were made of glass.

The zombie fish squirmed from side to side.

Pang !!!

Liu Yang kicked the sword hard. The sword pierced even more towards the head of the zombie fish.

Pang !!!

As the fish did not die, Liu Yang kicked again. The fish squirmed even more.

Pang !!!

On the third kick, the zombie finally stopped squirming and died.

"Congratulations on completing the mission. You have collected the four items from the initial four areas. As a reward, you can choose one of the following options. "

"Choose one: Equipment - Skill - Consumable Item"

"I choose the skill" Liu Yang choose the skill again. It looked like the quest was only completed after he killed the zombie fish.

Equipment and consumable items can be changed, but skills will always be part of Liu Yang's body. It will never change. Skills will be part of his foundation.

"Active or Passive" The system asked again.

"I choose the passive skill" Active skills were powerful, but to use it required many points on certain attributes.

If Liu Yang receives a rare skill like the previous one, the Diamond Skin. But instead of being passive, choosing an active skill, using that kind of skill would be very dangerous for Liu Yang.

For a powerful ability would tire his body a lot in his current state. So he decided to choose to receive a passive ability again.

"Choose the attribute: Strength - Agility - Vitality - Intelligence - All attributes"

"Interesting It seems that this time, I was given the option to receive an ability that supports the four attributes. That kind of skill is quite rare and hard to find, "Liu Yang commented when he read the message.

"I choose all the attributes.

"Congratulations, you have received the ability - The Battle Goddess's Blessing"
