Chapter 1300 - 1300 Distant Cousin of the Worm
1300 Distant Cousin of the Worm
“Familiar? Have you seen it before?” Angie Prairie was a little strange, “Our Earth Federation doesn’t have such a monster, right?”
Nkosi also looked at Chu Nan strangely.
Even he, who had come to the Endless Abyss many times and thought that he knew it very well, had never seen this monster. How could Chu Nan, a guy from a distant small country like the Earth Federation, have seen it?
“It’s not the Earth Federation.”
Chu Nan shook his head and stared at the two huge worms that had stopped in the distance and completely calmed down. He frowned and thought for a moment before suddenly tapping his feet and jumping over.
Angie Prairie followed without a word. Nkosi hesitated for a moment. When he saw that there was still no movement when Chu Nan approached the two huge worms, he followed.
When he felt the two huge worms beside him, he saw Chu Nan pointing at the half of the worm’s body that was exposed on the ground and asking Angie Prairie, “Look, doesn’t it look like it?”
“What does it look like?” Nkosi looked in the direction Chu Nan pointed in confusion and saw a large green strange pattern on the back of the huge worm. It looked like a birthmark on the human body.
The shape of this pattern was also very strange. At first glance, it seemed to be a mess of colors, but on careful look, one would discover that it looked very much like the pattern of a butterfly. It was really strange to stick to the back of a large worm like this.
Angie Prairie stared at the pattern and frowned for a while. Suddenly, she tapped her feet and jumped onto the huge body of another worm. She lowered her head to look and shouted.
“That’s right, there’s also a worm behind this!”
Chu Nan and Nkosi jumped over at the same time and indeed, they discovered that there was the same butterfly pattern on the back of the other huge worm.
Clearly, these two huge worms were monsters of the same breed.
However, Nkosi was still puzzled. Clearly, Chu Nan was not referring to this butterfly pattern, but to something else.
Sensing Nkosi’s gaze, Chu Nan smiled at him and explained, “Did you discover that these two huge worms look very similar to a creature?”
“A certain creature?” Nkosi looked around and still shook his head in confusion, “I can’t tell.”
“Don’t you think they’re very similar to the Salemordo Butterfly-Spotted Green Insect?” Chu Nan asked.
“Salemordo Butterfly-Spotted Green Insect?” Nkosi was still confused, “What’s that? A ferocious beast?”
“No, it’s only a very ordinary insect-type creature and not a ferocious beast.” Chu Nan shook his head, “This worm was specially mentioned in our Earth Federation’s primary education biology class, so Angie Prairie and I know. You don’t know. Perhaps your Declan Empire hasn’t specially taught it in this aspect.”
Nkosi frowned and looked down at the personal terminal on his wrist. He could only shake his head again.
As long as he entered the second level of the Endless Abyss, his personal terminal could no longer be connected to the Milky Way Network. Of course, it was impossible for him to go online and inquire what this damned Salemordo Butterfly-Spotted Green Insect was.
“However, there’s a problem.” Chu Nan pointed at the two large insects and continued, “The Salemordo Butterfly-Spotted Green Insect that Angie Prairie and I learned in the tutorial is only slightly larger than ordinary insects, but the largest is not more than half a meter long. However, the two in front of us… are at least ten meters long. Therefore, I can only say that they look like the Salemordo Butterfly-Spotted Green Insect. In fact… they should be distant cousins of the Salemordo Butterfly-Spotted Green Insect?”
“Pfft—” Angie Prairie laughed, “If the Salemordo Butterfly-Spotted Green Insect we’ve learned knows that they have such a powerful cousin, they’ll definitely be very envious. However, now that you mention it, I’m no longer interested in their meat. The Salemordo Butterfly-Spotted Green Insect is poisonous, so these two distant cousins must be poisonous too. Although I’m not afraid of poison, it affects the taste very much.”
“You really plan to eat them?” Chu Nan rolled his eyes at Angie Prairie and turned to look at Nkosi. He pondered for a moment and suddenly said, “Nkosi, let’s part here.”
“Hmm? Why?” Nkosi was stunned, “Could it be that you plan to explore until here?”
“Of course not.” Chu Nan shook his head, “If I want to obtain good results in the Garden Hunting Assembly, it’s naturally not enough to only reach the 13th floor. However, there’s no need for you to keep taking the risk with me. I only hope that you can be a guide, but I don’t plan to let you lose your life here.”
The corners of Nkosi’s mouth twitched as he smiled bitterly, “Is it because I left you behind and only cared about escaping?”
Chu Nan was silent for a moment before nodding lightly.
“I guess so. However, you don’t have to be embarrassed. Your choice is not wrong. I don’t blame you. However, since you’re already afraid, I can’t force you to stay, right? If you lose your life because you follow us, it won’t be worth it.”
Nkosi’s face alternated between green and white. After his expression changed a few times, he finally sighed.
He was indeed afraid just now.
In fact, the reason why he had already explored the Endless Abyss many times more than ten years ago but rarely came in the past decade was because he sensed the danger of the Endless Abyss and gave up on continuing to take risks.
If not for Chu Nan using the Secret of the Rodsk Cultivation Method to tempt him, he would not have come here.
The fear of being chased by two huge insects reminded him of the last time he came to the Endless Abyss to explore, causing him to indeed lose the courage to continue risking his life with Chu Nan and Angie Prairie.
“In fact, it’s not very meaningful even if you continue to explore with us.” Chu Nan continued, “Didn’t you say that the deepest you can explore is only the 17th floor? It’s not much deeper than us now. I invited you here because I hope you can help us familiarize ourselves with this place when I first entered the Endless Abyss. Now that we’ve already arrived at the 13th floor and have a basic understanding of the environment of the Endless Abyss, I don’t think it’s impossible to have no clues next. Therefore, even if you leave now, I don’t think it’ll affect you much.”
Nkosi smiled bitterly and shook his head.
“Alright, Chu Nan, I know you have good intentions. That’s right, you’re right. Even if I follow you again, I’ll only be a burden and meaningless. Moreover, I’m indeed a little afraid of losing my life. Then, let’s… bid farewell like this.”
Chu Nan suddenly raised his right hand and opened his personal terminal, gesturing for Nkosi to do as he was told.
Nkosi did as he was asked in confusion and discovered that a document had suddenly come from Chu Nan’s personal terminal.
After a while, the document was received. Nkosi opened it in confusion and his eyes lit up.
The thing in this document was actually more of Chu Nan’s thoughts on the Secret of the Rodsk Cultivation Method!
“I originally planned to give it to you after we came out. Now that we’ve decided to break up, I’ll give it to you now. This is the reward we’ve discussed. You’re welcome.”
Nkosi raised his head to look at Chu Nan’s warm smile and felt ashamed.
After thinking for a moment, he gestured for Chu Nan to bring his personal terminal over and transmit some information about the Endless Abyss that he had prepared.
“Not every piece of this information is useful, but it will be beneficial for you to read more. The most important thing is some known maps and the method to deal with ferocious beasts. Apart from that, you have to pay attention when you reach the 26th floor…”
