Godslayer: The Progenitor of Symbiotes

"Lord Huangsha, what if he loses control?"

Han Shaoyun looked at the yellow sand in front of him, and behind him was Chen Shu's residence.

"Han Shaoyun, you still don't understand. It's just a tool. If it weren't for Lord [Yiyu] recognizing its talent, do you think it could have come here alive?" Huang Sha casually waved his left hand, signaling Han Shaoyun to move aside.

Han Shaoyun stared at the black torch held up by Huang Sha in his right hand, hesitated for a moment, and then stepped aside.

Seeing Han Shaoyun step aside, Huang Sha released his right hand, and the black torch immediately sank into the ground.

Beneath the ground, a mass of sand carrying a torch rapidly moved to directly beneath Chen Shu's residence.

Huang Sha nodded in satisfaction, his figure turning into sand and drifting into the distance, leaving behind a sentence in the air, "This forbidden item was personally made by Lord [Yiyu]. You better behave yourself and don't let it slip."

Han Shaoyun glanced one last time in the direction of the underground, a look of regret appearing in his eyes.

If Lin Qiye were here at this moment, looking towards Chen Shu's residence, he would see wisps of ethereal black energy swirling around the two-story building.

……

After the battle axe started a fire, the surrounding chill was somewhat dispelled.

Chen Shu took out a few chocolates and handed them to Shenli, saying, "One for each of you to replenish your energy."

Shenli nodded and gave one to each of the people from the Battle Axe. When he gave one to Qin Feng, Qin Feng was clearly taken aback, as if he hadn't expected to receive one.

Shenli nodded, trying to keep his tone as kind as possible, "Take it. It's only because you're a good person that I wouldn't give it to you. Otherwise, with your attitude, I wouldn't have given it to you."

Qin Feng disliked Shenli's words, but since he hadn't eaten all day, he had no choice but to accept the chocolate.

Battle Axe ate the chocolate, glanced at the group of people present, and said, "Except for the two gentlemen, there are seven of us in total. We'll take turns on duty tonight, one hour per person. No objections?"

"no problem."

"Ok."

"..."

The members of the War Axe team responded one after another, and finally, War Axe looked at Qin Feng.

Qin Feng glanced at the battle axe. He was very disgusted by the feeling of being ordered around, but since he was currently in the lowest position here, he could only nod.

"Okay, then I'll go first... and Qin Feng will go last."

Chen Shu looked at Qin Feng not far away and smiled, "Shenli, what do you think of this guy?"

Shenli glanced at Qin Feng and shook his head. "At just over twenty years old, he's the national archery champion. In normal society, no one can match him in his area of ​​expertise."

"Perhaps it was this kind of upbringing that shaped his self-righteousness, or perhaps his belief that he was very strong."

"To be honest, I don't like him. But maybe it's because he hasn't seen enough. Perhaps if he saw more powerful people, his sharpness would be dulled."

"Haha, you can't blame him, I would have done the same," Chen Shu laughed. "Alright, alright, let's rest for a while."

Shenli nodded, rested his head on a rock, found a comfortable position, and closed his eyes to rest.

Except for the one with the battle axe, everyone else closed their eyes.

Time passed slowly, and perhaps because the environment was too cold, there were no insects chirping around, only the occasional crackling of the campfire in the air.

Before we knew it, the people on duty had changed one after another.

The man holding a shotgun sat by the campfire, his eyes beneath his helmet scanning his surroundings.

After confirming there was no danger, the man picked up some dry firewood and added some to the campfire.

The man sat down again, looked around, and his eyes became serious. In just over ten seconds, thick fog suddenly rose in the dark forest, and the surrounding environment became blurred.

The man picked up the shotgun beside him, his gaze fixed on the thick fog. The next second, the fog visibly began to gather towards the campfire.

The man was startled. If the sudden appearance of fog just now could be explained by science, then the sudden gathering of fog now was definitely not a normal phenomenon.

"boom--!"

A deafening gunshot rang out in the silent woods.

Chen Shu opened his eyes instantly and looked around.

The surface of Shenli's body was instantly covered by black liquid.

The others were also awakened by the gunshot and looked around.

Battle Axe picked up his great axe, looked around, and saw no enemy. "What's going on? Why did they suddenly start shooting?"

The man with the shotgun looked around. "This fog is abnormal. It suddenly appeared while I was adding firewood. It was just closing in on us, and then it suddenly stopped after I fired."

Battle Axe looked around, his brows gradually furrowing. The mist stopped just as it reached the bell.

Immediately, he turned to look in the direction of Chen Shu and Shenli. He paused for a moment when he saw Shenli, but after realizing that Shenli was no ordinary person, he continued, "Sir, what should we do?"

"Boss." Shenli looked at Chen Shu.

Chen Shu looked around, somewhat bewildered. He hadn't encountered many mysterious creatures before, and he really didn't know what to do in this situation.

Chen Shu thought for a moment, then used his tentacles to grab firewood from the campfire and threw it around. At the same time, a strong wind swept through, and the surrounding mist instantly retreated.

"Holy crap! What is that?!"

The moment the still-burning firewood hit the ground, Shenli shouted.

In the surrounding woods, a dozen green, humanoid monsters were eyeing the group menacingly.

In just one second, they extinguished the firewood around them.

Chen Shu now understood why this mysterious creature was afraid of fire.

Because, although they are humanoid, they look exactly like green jelly.

"Damn it, it's pitch black here, there's no way to fight." Battle Axe unconsciously tightened his grip on the great axe in his hand.

Upon hearing Battle Axe's words, Divine Power realized what was happening and immediately commanded, "Everyone, protect the campfire. If the fire goes out, we'll be 'blind'."

Upon hearing Shenli's words, the group immediately moved closer to the campfire.

As if sensing everyone's tension, a sudden "gurgling" sound of water rang out from the woods, like the whispers of a demon, drawing ever closer.

Upon hearing this sound, Chen Shu felt uneasy all over and immediately entered battle mode, transforming into a lava hound.

Seeing Chen Shu's tall figure, Zhanfu and the others felt a little more at ease.

"Don't panic, everyone! Chen Da...!"

Before War Axe could finish speaking, he suddenly screamed as a large green hand pulled him down into the ground from his ankle!

The man with the guan dao next to him immediately grabbed the hand of the battle axe, trying to slow his descent.

As for Qin Feng on the other side, he seemed to have not yet reacted and stood there blankly.
