"... In short!"
The voice came from below.
Shen Heng also turned his attention back to the Two-Horned Lizard.
The Two-Horned Lizard looked at him, slightly out of breath.
It opened its mouth and said:
"As long as you don't kill me, I can provide you with a lot of help, just as I said I would!"
"This help will definitely be a great help to you, you see..."
After a slight pause, the Two-Horned Lizard carefully said:
"How about it?"
Having said that, the Two-Horned Lizard swallowed hard and waited anxiously.
They were alone, with only the animal and the human in the surroundings. When they didn't speak, the wilderness was completely silent.
Then, the Two-Horned Lizard became increasingly nervous.
After all, its reasons have been fully explained, but the other party has still not responded.
There was no reply at first, which was normal; they were probably thinking about it.
But the longer it takes, the worse it is, because it means the probability of the other party agreeing will decrease!
However, the Two-Horned Lizard had no choice but to continue waiting.
After all, if it had any other way, it wouldn't be lying on the ground like this now!
Time flowed slowly, and the heart of the Two-Horned Lizard sank lower and lower.
Suddenly, a sound came.
What are you doing here?
"Ah?"
The Two-Horned Lizard was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted.
Although it didn't quite understand why the other party was asking such a simple question, it still answered.
"No, we're just gathering, moving around, and hunting other Calamity Beast. After all, we also need to..."
Shen Heng listened while pondering.
The Two-Horned Lizard mentioned several points of help.
Helping to carry things is actually quite useful, especially for other soldiers.
After all, if there are too many things, it will be very inconvenient for ordinary soldiers to move around, even if they can carry them.
This has nothing to do with strength, but with body shape.
It's like a one-pound iron block and a large refrigerator cardboard box.
For humans, heavier iron blocks are actually easier to carry.
Therefore, although helping to carry things may seem useless, it is actually quite meaningful for the vast majority of soldiers.
Unfortunately, it encountered Shen Heng, who possessed storage space.
Secondly, help kill the Calamity Beast!
Undeniably, the Two-Horned Lizard is very strong, especially its mental attacks.
It can bypass Origin Power and physical constitution, and directly attack the spiritual body of a creature!
This effect, combined with physical attacks, is practically a guaranteed kill for ordinary Calamity Beast!
This can be seen in how Shen Heng dealt with the Calamity Beast in the past.
Back then, he frequently used sonic attacks combined with slashing strikes to ambush and kill the Calamity Beast.
However, sound waves are not purely a mental attack; rather, they cause dizziness by vibrating the brain.
This effect, along with the increased mental strength and physical constitution that come with the advancement in rank, is getting worse and worse.
This is also why Shen Heng rarely uses the same tactics when facing Calamity Beast of the same level now.
Without improving their ability level, the original tactics have become significantly less effective against Calamity Beast of the same level!
But the Two-Horned Lizard is different.
Its ability is purely mental attack!
Let alone the Calamity Beast that have hardly cultivated their spiritual power, even ordinary warriors would find it difficult to withstand them.
If Shen Heng hadn't started cultivating the Mysterious Gate Visualization Method given to him by the Daoist priest two years earlier, he might not be standing on the head of the Two-Horned Lizard now.
Hmm... of course, the Two-Horned Lizard shouldn't be standing on his head either.
But if he hadn't started cultivating two years earlier, and instead reached the Fourth Tier, and then cultivated the Spirit Platform Unity Art like everyone else, then today, the Two-Horned Lizard would definitely not have survived!
Even though he was almost at the Sixth Tier, the Two-Horned Lizard was only barely at the Late Fifth Tier; even though he could use Origin Power Origin Power, the Two-Horned Lizard couldn't, so he couldn't keep the Two-Horned Lizard!
Yes, mental power is just that unfair!
If anyone else from the Plateau Erosion Zone were here today (excluding the Daoist priest), the Two-Horned Lizard would definitely not have survived!
In fact, it doesn't even limit you to one person; three or four people can come together and it'll be the same!
Two-Horned Lizard might not be able to handle that many people, but escaping from them shouldn't be too difficult.
after all...
Shen Heng's eyes darkened as he felt the intense pain in his mind.
Therefore, the Two-Horned Lizard is indeed very strong. Given its condition, it could save a lot of effort if used to help hunt down the Calamity Beast, but...
Who says the Two-Horned Lizard will necessarily help you fight the Calamity Beast? Maybe it'll turn around and team up with the Calamity Beast to fight you?
Therefore, Shen Heng had not considered using it to help deal with other Calamity Beast.
The only reason Shen Heng is standing on the Two-Horned Lizard without killing it is the last point the Two-Horned Lizard just mentioned.
It can help answer questions they don't know!
A Fifth Tier Calamity Beast willing to provide intelligence... no one can be sure just how much valuable intelligence it can offer!
The narration gradually faded from my ears.
Shen Heng also brought his thoughts back and stared at the Two-Horned Lizard.
What the Two-Horned Lizard just said wasn't anything special; it was just that a bunch of Calamity Beast had gathered and were coming from somewhere.
Interspersed throughout are some of the more powerful Calamity Beast it encountered that it deemed necessary to introduce!
Looking at it, Shen Heng pondered for a moment and asked:
Do you know where you are?
"Here?" the Two-Horned Lizard asked hesitantly, looking at the human before it. Seeing the human's increasingly cold gaze due to its delayed response, the lizard shuddered and said:
"I'm not entirely sure, but I have a guess!"
"What guess?" Shen Heng asked.
"This place is very likely one I've been to before..."
The Two-Horned Lizard began to speak.
As it spoke, it secretly observed the human before it.
"Hmm... I can't tell this human all the information, otherwise, given their despicable nature, they'll definitely kill me after getting all the intelligence!"
"But I can't not tell him, otherwise this human will definitely kill me!"
"But if I tell everyone, and Lord Feather Owl or Lion King find out, wouldn't I be finished?"
"Hmm... we could mix some false information into the message, so that even if we're asked about it later, we can still make excuses!"
"However, be careful; the fake news mixed in can't be something these humans would know, otherwise we're doomed, because these humans will know right away that we've mixed in fake news!"
"So, the only option is to spread false information on intelligence that is almost impossible for humans to obtain?"
Thinking of this, the Two-Horned Lizard's eyes lit up.
What it's saying now is something that humans would hardly know, isn't it?
"Hmm... let's try it. Replace the Lion King who guards the Mountain of Truth with the Dragon Beast."
"If these humans knew that the Lion King was stationed over there, then they should say that the lord guarding Mountain of Truth has actually been replaced!"
"Yes, that's right, that's exactly it!"
With this in mind, the Two-Horned Lizard spoke more fluently.
The story was quickly finished.
The Two-Horned Lizard raised its eyes.
In my field of vision, the human was deep in thought, preoccupied with recounting the existence of the Mountain of Truth and the existence of the Dragon Beast, showing no signs of anything amiss.
"Ha, foolish humans, didn't they realize they had just mixed in false information?"
The Two-Horned Lizard's mouth curled up almost imperceptibly, but it quickly smoothed it out again.
It asked respectfully,
"My lord, is there anything else you wish to ask? I will certainly answer you honestly!"
After saying that, the Two-Horned Lizard cautiously looked at the human.
In its field of vision, the human raised its eyes and quietly looked at it.
Then, as if considering what question to ask, he asked after a moment:
"If that's the case, do you know why the space inside that palace exploded?"
