Come Out, My King Crab!
'Is this brat mocking me?'
Sashado's creation of the parasite was actually a forced and helpless act.
If possible, this king from thousands of years ago would never have chosen this method. It was only because of his desire to "live" and his fear of modern human technology and weaponry that he had no choice but to do so.
"Whoosh!"
Suddenly, Sashado raised his hand, and his scaly arm unleashed a green blade of energy that slashed diagonally toward where Ian was.
"Hey, you're resorting to violence just because we disagree?"
Ian was completely unaware that there was anything wrong with his words; he only felt that the other person was still the same as before—irritable and difficult to communicate with.
"Honestly, I thought you'd changed, but it seems the power of nuclear weapons hasn't made you realize who you really are."
"Laugh!"
A massive green blade of energy slashed past Ian, striking a rock with the ease of a red-hot blade cutting through butter, and then continued to extend backward.
The surrounding Hunters tensed up when they saw Sashado make his move and quickly took cover.
Only Cat Teacher, standing with his hands behind his back, floated in mid-air, stroking his whiskers with his cat paws, and said calmly.
"Don't be nervous, this guy's attack has no killing intent at all, what are you worried about?"
Hearing what Cat Teacher said, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
However, at that moment, someone noticed that one of the two tree trunks that had just been severed by the green blade was covered with mushrooms, while the other was covered with green grass.
"This is...!"
Someone gasped and quickly used "Condensation" to observe, only to find that there was no remaining Nen on it.
At this moment, Hunter with expertise in biological science spoke seriously.
"Everyone, stay away from this tree trunk. It seems to have mutated. Until we're sure this mutation is contagious, we'd better not get too close."
Upon hearing his words, everyone turned pale.
Nobody's stupid. This big tree was just an ordinary tree before. The only possible reason for this change is Sashado's Nen attack just now.
"What kind of Nen Ability is this? It actually altered the ecological structure of the plant."
"It should be like what Ian was talking about with that guy earlier. The opponent's attack will cause a mutation in 'life,' which is really troublesome. If such an attack were to land on a human body..."
At this point, the Hunters' expressions changed, and they turned to look at Netero.
Netero remained calm and composed as he spoke.
"Don't worry, I'm unharmed. I discovered this when I fought him before. However, triggering this mutation effect will likely require some probability."
Not far away, Ian listened to everyone's words, seemed to be deep in thought, and then looked at Sashado.
"So it's Specialization Nen Ability too. That's normal for you, but don't you think you went too far by resorting to violence so easily?"
Ian finished speaking calmly, he raised his hand and pointed forward.
With a thought, the Invincible Turret, now the Planet Buster, immediately recharged and, without hesitation, fired a shot at Sashado in the distance.
Since this guy dared to attack me, it would be impolite not to retaliate. I naturally had to give him a taste of his own medicine and teach Sashado a lesson.
"Boom--"
A blazing laser beam as thick as a bucket flashed by in an instant. Sashado faced this terrifying energy attack head-on, his expression changed slightly, but he still quickly dodged.
Even from a distance, he could feel the intense heat, and he couldn't help but think to himself.
'As expected, this kid is really terrifying. If we can't escape, this Host Body will probably perish here.'
Although it didn't hit the opponent, a large section of the dark cave behind it was blasted away again.
At the same time, it also revealed to everyone the countless "strange" creatures hidden deep in the cave and lurking in the darkness.
The moment Ian saw those creatures, he showed a knowing look and spoke calmly.
"I knew it! Since you have this ability, it's impossible that you only created those Spiders. You created all these monsters too?"
Behind him, some of the Hunters with good eyesight could also see the densely packed, colorful creatures in a huge sinkhole behind Sashado.
There were Rabbits that were over 3 meters long and had pink ears; not just one, but a group.
Its abilities are unknown, but its eyes are dark and empty. Despite being surrounded by all sorts of strange creatures, such as giant centipedes, white horses that resemble unicorns, and monkeys with bony gauntlets on their hands, this creature showed no fear whatsoever.
Upon seeing the Rabbit, Shenwu couldn't help but recall the monsters she had encountered in Jin's Game World.
Speaking of which, I wonder if that guy Jin has continued working on Greed Island lately.
Once Egina has dealt with Gugurian's matter to a greater extent, he will definitely go to see him again.
"Ian, you always seem to show up at the worst possible time..."
The creatures behind him were discovered. After a moment of silence, Sashado answered Ian's question.
"Just a hair's breadth away, and I'll be done..."
Ian was curious upon hearing his words.
"What's done?"
"Could it be that among the mutated monsters you created, there's one that you find quite appealing?"
Sashado raised his head, looked at the sun in the sky, and nodded as if he had figured something out.
"That's right, if it's you, you shouldn't stop me, right?"
His words piqued Ian's interest, and he quickly replied.
"Don't worry, I'm also a collector of rare creatures, so of course I won't stop you. If you have any innovative ideas, go ahead and start, let me see them..."
Sashado silent; he always felt that he and Ian were not on the same wavelength.
Is the other person genuinely indifferent, or are they trying to provoke him with words...?
He was a little unsure.
Ian seemed to feel that simply saying it wasn't enough, so he reached out and pulled out the [Miniature World Refrigerator].
"If you don't believe me, I'll show you my work. Hehe, to be honest, I haven't shown these good things to anyone other than that guy Jin."
Upon hearing Ian's words, not only was Sashado slightly taken aback, but the Hunters behind him also exchanged bewildered glances.
How could this be...?
Ian even started chatting with the other person...
Ian ignored everyone and opened the refrigerator on his own. Then, his eyes lit up, and he pulled out the White Stone Crab, which was quite conspicuous even in the world of the refrigerator. He grinned and said...
"Come forth, my invincible King Crab!!"
The next moment, an enormous shadow descended from the sky!
