Chapter 207: 106. Disaster Not Over_5

Translator: 549690339

The five creatures on all fours were wildly slamming into the stone bricks.

They clearly possessed extraordinary jumping capabilities and physical fitness, able to leap vertically from a standstill and hit the lower section of the bricks with their backs.

“Huh? How interesting. What kind of underground creatures are these? They’re quite strong.” Fars places his hand on the slightly trembling ground tile:

“Look. They’re loosening the tiles by hitting them, and the cement in the gaps is about to crack.”

The clear sound of the impacts from below echoed throughout the room: “clang, clang, clang…”

Cigarette in mouth, Kent, the night watchman, walked in, exhaling smoke and asking:

“What’s going on, mates? It’s late, and none of you are sleeping – holding a storytelling session?”

“Boss, Fars says there’s something underground hitting the tiles.” Mark runs his hands through his hair.

“Kent, come and listen. The thing underneath seems like it’s going crazy.” Fars, full of curiosity, tilts his head with his ear close to the ground:

“Could it be some magic beasts locked in the basement of the ancient castle?”

“Basement? What basement? I’ve been searching for several rounds, and I haven’t found the stairs or any secret door.”

Kent grumbles and comes over to Fars, his gaze catching the cracks in the cement between the tiles.

These hair-thin cracks spread rapidly across the cement filling the gaps.

Kent grabs Fars by the collar, pulling him up from the ground, quickly issuing orders:

“Everybody, wake up, head out, all of you! The cement in the gaps of the ground tiles is cracking – the floor might collapse. Everyone, get out!”

Kent’s voice had barely faded when the sound of shattering — “crack, crack, crack…” – was heard.

“Retreat, retreat, everyone get out!” Mark waves his arm to drive his companions away, reaching out to wake the sleeping team members.

Noland Lee takes several steps back, jumps out of the window, and turns his head to stare at the underground creatures.

At the moment when the five creatures hit the bricks, several more of the same type of creatures run from far away underground.

They assemble together, pounding against the ground tiles with a series of thuds.

As the sounds intensified, more and more strange creatures emerged from the depths of the underground, joining the queue to pound the tiles.

At this point, everyone realized that something was wrong, without Kent and Mark needing to remind them loudly.

Kent pulls the gun from his waist and shouts:

“Grab your weapons, brothers! I have a feeling that the creatures underground are tricky. They must be carnivorous magic animals. Perhaps it’s the smell of our meat that attracted them.”

“Boom… ”

As the security team members were waiting outside, a loud noise sounded from the castle’s grand hall — ground tiles collapsing, and clouds of dust spewing from the doorways and windows.

More than a dozen strange-looking gray-skinned monsters walked out of the ancient castle, leaving wet, sticky footprints behind.

They resembled humans, having two arms, two legs, and a head, but rested on the ground and walked on all fours like a crocodile.

Their skin was smooth and featureless, lacking eyes, nose, and mouth, appearing as a smooth gray from top to bottom.

“Damn it! How could it be aberrations?!”

“My God! What am I seeing?! How could there be aberrations outside the city? Aren’t those things only found in the Great Rift inside the city?! ”

The security team members cried out in alarm.

Even the faces of Kent and Mark were filled with shock.

As for Fars, it was as if he discovered some explosive news, so he exclaimed excitedly:

“Wow! Wow! Wow! We actually saw aberrations outside the Great Rift! Does anyone remember the last time aberrations nests appeared in the wild? Whatever, it doesn’t matter, our encounter tonight is definitely going to make the headlines of “Alchemy Weekly”! ”

Noland Lee stared intently at the gray-skinned humanoid aberrations, a flicker of a different color in his eyes.

So, these creatures were the culprits responsible for the destruction of the Golden Dynasty?

They certainly looked peculiar.

How the Golden Dynasty rose to power was still an unknown thing for the scavengers.

But how the Golden Dynasty fell, every scavenger could describe it in detail.

It’s because the disaster that destroyed the Golden Dynasty has not ended yet.

From the memory of the scavengers, Noland Lee found this information about the gray-skinned aberrations that destroyed the Golden Dynasty.

They appeared overnight all over the dynasty.

Some said they were alchemical creatures secretly developed by the Golden Dynasty.

Others claimed that the Golden Dynasty’s obsession with alchemy led to many horrific man-made disasters. The victims cursed the perpetrators, turning the participants into these monstrous aberrations.

There were also people who believed the aberrations were buried deep beneath the city, older than even the Golden Dynasty itself. When the Golden Dynasty explored deeper underground, they accidentally awakened these creatures, leading to the kingdom’s catastrophic downfall.

Regarding the origin of the aberrations, there were multiple theories, and no one Imew which one was true. The Alchemy Cathedral did not provide any definitive research conclusions.

However, there was one point on which everyone could agree.

That is, when you replace one aberration, there must be a whole nest nearby! Their reproductive ability was as strong as that of cockroaches!
