Awakening The Gluttony Talent: I Become Stronger By Eating
Chapter 173 - 173 Poison Immunity173 Poison Immunity
Within the Red Lotus Fire Domain, the fire-attribute strength increased by 50% while the water-attribute strength decreased by 60%!
In an instant, the Ice Abyss Flood Dragon’s strength dropped tremendously. The freezing icy aura that was spewed out melted immediately, stunning it momentarily. It hesitated for a while, but was attacked by the numerous fire dragons at once. With a plaintive howl, it fell down to the ground.
Right now, Lu Yu was more than capable of slaying an S-class Fearsome Beast. With the augmentation of the Red Lotus Fire Domain, his ability to deal with a water-attribute Fearsome Beast was further boosted.
Roar! However, this Ice Abyss Flood Dragon’s fighting spirit was exceptionally strong. After suffering this blow, it reared up once more. As its humongous dragon body twisted and swirled, it instantly condensed a mass of water-attribute force.
Heavy icy rain fell from the sky. Every drop of the icy rain was as sharp as a sword, pelting down with vicious killing intent.
“Beast! You have come at the right time!” Lu Yu bellowed out. With a swing of his hand, the Dragon Blood Battle Saber swept out a completely impenetrable barrier screen that blocked all the icy raindrops.
Following that, a ray of saber light slashed on the Ice Abyss Flood Dragon’s forehead, causing it to bleed profusely instantly. Under the excruciating pain, a look of fear flashed across the Ice Abyss Flood Dragon’s eyes. It dared not confront Lu Yu head-on anymore but turned tail and fled back into Lake Ice Abyss.
Lu Yu went in hot pursuit immediately. The moment he dived into the lake, as the Red Lotus Fire Domain enveloped the whole space and Wind-Fire Calamity was activated, it turned the area into a high temperature, high pressure domain. The ice layer melted rapidly and the lake waters started boiling and roiling.
Zhou Zhongzheng saw this scene and wiped the cold sweat that had broken out on his forehead. He said with heartfelt sincerity, “Mr. Lu is indeed an extraordinary character with god-like abilities.”
If Lu Yu had not offended the Ying family, Zhou Zhongzheng really wanted to be friends with Lu Yu.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDeep in the lake, as the temperature rose rapidly because of Lu Yu’s presence, the Ice Abyss Flood Dragon was fleeing in a panic-stricken manner. It couldn’t understand why this ridiculously strong human was pursuing it so relentlessly.
Moreover, it was this human who had interrupted its slumber in the first place, so he was in the wrong right from the start!
The more it thought, the more furious it felt. With a loud roar, the Ice Abyss Flood Dragon turned around to charge at Lu Yu. However, Lu Yu faced it head-on with a ray of saber light that hit its abdomen. A big gush of blood burst forth, frightening it so much that it once more turned tail and fled.
When Lu Yu saw this, a vicious look flashed across his eyes. He swung his saber and gave chase immediately. He leaped onto the back of the Ice Abyss Flood Dragon, raised his saber and gave it a vicious slash.
Roar! The Ice Abyss Flood Dragon let out a howl of anguish. As its body dropped down rapidly while still intertwined with Lu Yu, it became so infuriated that it used its massive body to strangle Lu Yu in a death grip.
[Ding! Detected that host has absorbed the Ice Abyss Flood Dragon’s blood. Received: Poison Immunity!]
[Poison Immunity]
[Level: S-class]
[Introduction: A power that originated from the bloodline of the Ice Abyss Flood Dragon. It contains extremely strong immunity against toxic poison.]
The blood of the Ice Abyss Flood Dragon splattered on Lu Yu’s arm. The moment his Gluttony Talent devoured it, a row of small text appeared before Lu Yu’s eyes.
Following that, realization hit Lu Yu. He finally understood why this Ice Abyss Flood Dragon was not affected by the poisonous gas.
He couldn’t help saying in a low voice, “Who would have thought that such an ability existed within your bloodline, you beast? But other than that, there is nothing special.”
Furnace skill activated! Health vitality transformed into strength!
As Lu Yu unleashed his power, a massive force burst forth with a violent shudder of his body. The Ice Abyss Flood Dragon’s body was instantly turned into a bloody mess of mangled flesh, causing it to howl endlessly due to the searing pain. It immediately released its grip on Lu Yu and fled to the bottom of the lake.
At this point, a wave of freezing cold aura gushed out, making Lu Yu’s Red Lotus Fire Domain teeter on the edge of instability. Lu Yu got a big shock.
This creature’s water-attribute strength had been reduced by 60%, yet it was still able to threaten Lu Yu. He decided to head to the bottom of the lake to investigate thoroughly.
At this point,
Song Yu and Qin Yong headed north and east respectively after leaving the blood-sucking wasteland.
They were headed for Northern Chill City and Boulder Rock City respectively. If Lunan City was considered the main traffic artery to defend the western region of Flame Country, then Northern Chill City and Boulder Rock City were considered the front line.
Once Lunan City was occupied by the Fearsome Beasts, the whole western region would be lost. Then these two cities would become the defense line of Flame Country, giving Flame Country some buffer time against the enemies so that the nation could gear up in preparation to retaliate.
Boulder Rock City was a massive city built on the foundation of boulders. The whole city was covered in an earth-yellow hue, giving off an air of heavy density with a plain look.
With a resident population of just over 600,000 and a garrison of more than 50,000, there wasn’t much of a vibrant recreational life here either, making it a lot duller compared to other cities.
Therefore, the city lords assigned by the federal government to this city mostly muddled through their jobs, and were only concerned with embellishing their personal resumes.
When Qin Yong identified himself as the vice-captain of the 4th squadron from the Gamma Military Zone, he was brought in to meet the City Lord of Boulder Rock City immediately.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBoulder Rock City was officially under the jurisdiction of the Gamma Military Zone, so although Qin Yong’s rank was inferior to his, the City Lord still had to entertain him. After all, no one in his mind would want to offend someone from the military zone for no good reason.
Initially, Qin Yong still smiled, but towards the end, his face darkened substantially as the fury in his heart burned fiercely.
This City Lord of Boulder Rock City kept changing the subject, making it near impossible for Qin Yong to get to the crux of his visit.
“City Lord, we should jump straight into the main topic now. Lunan City is facing a siege by the Fearsome Beasts and is in danger of falling to them at any time. We would like to request the City Lord to send troops.” Qin Yong said in a solemn voice.
Seeing that he could no longer evade the subject, Boulder Rock City’s City Lord cleared his throat awkwardly a few times before saying, “I am aware of the severity of the crisis besetting Lunan City, but there is really nothing I can do”
“Just look at my Boulder Rock City. It’s full of old and weak people. The size of the garrison troops is only 50,000 strong. It is of no use at all to resolve any predicament.”
The City Lord of Boulder Rock City put on a pained look of anguish, and said with heartache and remorse that the strength of Boulder Rock City did not permit him to lend a hand. Otherwise, he would have rushed his troops to Lunan City at a moment’s notice.
“Enough!” Qin Yong exploded with rage. He roared, “Stop beating about the bush. I know what you mean now. City Lord, is it your intention to leave us in the lurch and not help to rescue Lunan City?”
The expression of the City Lord of Boulder Rock City also turned icy cold. He said nonchalantly, “Vice-captain Qin, I only have this number of troops under my command. I have to be responsible for them.”
Qin Yong became so infuriated that he stood up instantly. He pointed an accusatory finger at Boulder Rock City’s City Lord, his whole body trembling with rage. Finally, with an angry flick of his sleeve, he left.
“See our guest off!”
As Boulder Rock City’s City Lord looked at Qin Yong’s departing silhouette, he took a sip of tea indifferently and said in an icy tone, “What has Lunan City’s survival or demise got to do with me?”
The Advisor by his side said worriedly, “But, Honorable City Lord, if we leave them in the lurch, how do we answer when the federal government pursues accountability?”
Boulder Rock City’s City Lord was not the least bit worried. He replied, “There’s no issue. With our Boulder Rock City’s paltry strength, there is nothing we can do even if we want to help. Even if they blame us, what can they do to us?”
Furthermore, to be able to stand firmly in Boulder Rock City as the lord of a city, he was no rash young man with no background.
If Boulder Rock City sent troops to assist Lunan City, they would definitely suffer huge losses. Who would compensate him for these massive losses that Boulder Rock City suffered? In this age, it was better to depend on oneself than to depend on the federal government.
