Chapter 135 - filth devourer

He reached out his hand and caught a thick vine. Then, he pulled on it with all his strength, allowing his body to naturally swing forward. He then took advantage of the momentum to grab another one and move swiftly through the canyon like the ape-man.

In this aspect, Atasha's body was much more nimble than his. Even though she was still carrying Mony, the black girl's moving body moved at a fast speed through the pendulum, creating a distance of one hundred meters between her and Zero.

By using this method, the two of them had already moved forward by more than half the "distance" in the canyon. However, as time passed, Zero could clearly feel a slight cool breeze sweeping past the canyon. The wind caused the flowers on the ground in the valley to sway slightly, shocking anyone who saw it. He knew that the time for the wind to pick up was getting closer and closer, and he was slightly anxious.

The deeper into the gorge, the fewer vines there were. When they had just entered the valley, these thick vines had intertwined with each other without even the slightest gap. However, when they reached the middle section, the gaps between the plants became wider and wider, and there were even gaps of about three meters in some areas. As a result, they were naturally unable to pass through easily. The only thing they could do was to grab some vines that were hanging down and float to the other side. The moment any one of these links was wrong, it would fall to the bottom of the valley and be accompanied by the Flower of Death.

Fortunately, this area was only about ten kilometers. After the two of them passed through, the vines at the top of the canyon started to gather once again. The two of them immediately sped up.

Zero thought that the density of the vines should be related to the intensity of the radiation in the canyon. When he was in the middle of the canyon, Zero could clearly feel that the radiation from the canyon had increased. Even with his physique he felt numb all over. It was a sign that the radiation level had reached a certain level. Monnie's radiation-protection kit flashed a blinding red light, and it wasn't until they passed through that area that the suite's light dimmed to a relatively low yellow one.

He silently estimated the time. According to their current speed, they should be able to leave the valley in half an hour. Zero Big heaved a sigh of relief. To be able to move in a pendulum motion like this was actually quite exhausting. If it was a normal day, it would have been fine. However, his injuries had just started to heal, so he was not in the right place to do such intense movements. Now he could feel all sorts of bad signals coming from all over his body. Although he suppressed them with his will, Zero knew that he wouldn't be able to hold on for long.

Beads of sweat had soaked his forehead, and his hair, which had fluttered in the air, was now plastered to his face. The sterile bandage on Zero's back was also soaked in sweat, and there was even a slight blush from the intense exercise that caused the wound that was originally healing to open up again.

However, he could no longer stop it. He could only continue to persevere. Zero gritted his teeth and continued waving his almost numb hands, increasing the speed of his movements.

However, at this moment, when even Atasha thought that the three of them were about to leave the valley smoothly, a violent shock suddenly came from the direction of the entrance. The shock wave quickly passed through the ground and reached the area where the two of them were standing. The walls of the canyon began to tremble slightly, causing the vines that were connected to the walls to sway non-stop. The two of them found it difficult to even stabilize their bodies, let alone move forward.

What was going on?

Zero could clearly feel the danger signal coming from behind, but he could not see what was happening at the entrance of the canyon due to the natural curve of the canyon. However, from the look on her face, it seemed that the matter wasn't that simple.

Soon after, a strange cry came from afar.

It sounded like the whistle of a ship, but also like the call of some kind of animal, giving off a sense of déjà vu. He quickly compared the sound source with the numerous data from the memory center in his brain. In less than a second, he could tell that it was the sound of a whale. However, the three of them were on land and not in the sea, so how could there be the sound of whales?

Hearing the same voice, Atasha screamed out, "Not good, it's the Filthy Devourer!"

Zero was stunned.

He had read about this monster in the book of Monster Notes that Ben had given him, and he was impressed. The reason for this was that the Nefarious Filth Devourer was one of the few mutated beasts that possessed a gigantic body on land.

The Nefarious Filth Devourer was like a blue whale that lived on land. The mature Devourer's body was similar in size to an aircraft carrier, and even in its infancy, it was the size of a small hill. The Devourer's appearance was similar to that of a whale, causing his eyes to degenerate. Like the whale, the devourer can observe the external world through acoustic positioning. This was a monster that had the elemental domain ability like the Finli Wolves. However, it was different from the Finli Wolves' ice type ability. The Devourer's ability was to control earth.

It lives underground and feeds on nuclear waste and any material with a source of radiation. During the turbulent times, for the Nefarious Filthbird, its food was practically everywhere. The Devourer was able to roam freely between the ground and the ground, thanks to its powerful earth-controlling abilities. Its unceasingly flowing surface could release the elemental wavelength of the earth element, causing the hard ground to undergo a molecular level change. The moment the Devourer unearthed the soil, it would soften into silt, and the earth would become a swimming sea for the Devourer.

However, the larger the monster, the worse its reproduction ability would be. The scales of the gods were always relatively balanced, otherwise, if these monsters existed in large quantities, they would have become the masters of the earth long ago.

Zero never thought that there would be a Filthy Devourer in the Death Canyon. The only reason why this monster appeared was because of the Flower of Death. For the vast majority of living creatures, the Flower of Death was a deadly existence, but in the eyes of the Devourer, it was an extremely delicious food. This was also the reason why these whale-like monsters were named as the 'filthy devourers'. From a certain perspective, they were actually useful creatures. After all, they were the earth scavengers.

However, when the Nefarious Filth Devourer was eating, it would not bother to differentiate between the different types of food. To them, the three of them might not be the main course, but if they accidentally swallowed them together, the Devourer would not deliberately spit them out.

Thus, after that whale-like cry, the earth trembled and a bulldozing sound came from the entrance of the canyon. However, in the blink of an eye, Zero could already see a small mountain of sound pushing towards them.

This was a young Devourer, but it took up almost all of the canyon's cross section. The Nefarious Filth Devourer's mouth was wide open, its body was not pushing at all on the ground, it was plowing down like a bulldozer. The ubiquitous Flower of Death, along with a large amount of silt, was dug into the Devourer's mouth and ran all the way to its stomach. From the looks of it, it didn't mind eating all three of them.

"Let's go! Once the Devourer eats, it will not stop until all of the Flowers of Death are cleared out!"
