I have an Apocalypse City Chapter 1372

Chapter 1372: Chapter 1374: Taking the Serum Chapter 1372: Chapter 1374: Taking the Serum Kamata felt it was a bit strange, for she didn't sense any hostility from these creatures.

After hesitating for a moment, she tried walking toward the lake and discovered that not a single creature attacked her. In fact, some even made way for her in the lake, leaving her a large space.

Song Jian watched as Kamata's body disappeared into the lake, which looked small but was very deep, swallowing her figure completely.

As Song Jian's combat pet, he could also use Kamata's senses to perceive her environment; he could vaguely feel that the lake was bottomless, much deeper than he had imagined.

After entering the lake, Kamata slowly swam towards the rock in the middle of the lake. In her view, this crystal, flickering with blue light, should be in her possession alone.

When she was about ten meters away from the center of the lake, three bosses from the Legendary Realm suddenly emerged and let out a low growl at her, seemingly preventing her from moving closer.

In this underground lake, the stronger the creature was, the closer it would be to the meteorite fragment. Within ten meters of the fragment were only these three Legendary Realm bosses. The reason Kamata could approach within ten meters was that these Legend Realm bosses recognized her strength. Though she was currently at the peak of the Dominion tier, she possessed the purest Dragon Bloodline. The three Legendary Realm bosses also had some diluted Dragon Bloodline, and from this bloodline connection, they recognized a natural suppression from Kamata. In a real fight, Kamata wouldn't be much weaker than them; thus, they tacitly allowed Kamata the right to approach the meteorite fragment within a ten-meter radius, just as they did.

However, this didn't mean that they were willing to let Kamata monopolize the meteorite fragment–they all harbored ideas of keeping it for themselves. But after a fierce struggle for dominance, none of the three creatures was capable of overpowering the others, which resulted in the current standoff and shared situation.

They were willing to share the meteorite fragment with Kamata but absolutely unwilling to let her keep it to herself. Seeing Kamata continue to approach the fragment had crossed their bottom line, so the three creatures surfaced together to stop her advance.

Roar~
Kamata let out an angry dragon roar at the three creatures, believing they had no right to contest her for the meteorite fragment. But when the three creatures united and exerted their pressure, they completely restrained Kamata, preventing her from advancing an inch further.

No matter how Kamata struggled, she couldn't contend with the three Legendary Realm creatures, and she was forced to stop. She looked at the meteorite fragment ten meters away with a look of reluctance in her eyes.

At this moment, Song Jian was shocked that these creatures could accept the presence of the Black Dragon Kamata. Perhaps it was because of Kamata's formidable strength or because she had ingested a Mutated Serum and was marked with the same scent as these creatures, making them recognize Kamata as one of their own.

With this thought, Song Jian's eyes brightened, and he took out a vial shimmering with the light of a ruby from his inventory, thinking to himself, “If I also take a serum, will they also see me as one of their kind?”

If this were true, as long as he approached within ten meters, he was confident that he could reach the center of the lake in two seconds, snatch the meteorite fragment, and then hide within the Shattered Divine Realm.

Song Jian believed that without the meteorite fragment, these creatures wouldn't take long to disperse naturally.

With this in mind, Song Jian opened the vial's stopper and poured the serum into his mouth.

Only after the serum entered his mouth did Song Jian realize that it didn't have the stench of blood at all; instead, it had a faint scent of grass and trees. It went down like a cool liquid flowing down his throat and into his stomach.

“Quite tasty!” Song Jian smacked his lips, thinking to himself.

Just then, a burning sensation suddenly surged from his stomach. This feeling spread rapidly throughout his body at a fast pace. Underneath his skin, spiderweb-like red marks slowly appeared, causing Song Jian to experience a soul-piercing pain.

Caught off guard, Song Jian couldn't help but let out a low roar, and with this roar, he actually spewed out intense Flame from his mouth.

In a short while, all the hair on his body began to slowly curl and wither, then turned into ashes. Threads of Vitality seeped out from his pores, drifting in the air like countless tiny tentacles.

Soon, more and more of these red tendrils of breath intertwined with each other, eventually forming a large blood cocoon, nearly identical to the one previously formed by the Black Dragon Kamata.

By this time, Song Jian had already lost his self-consciousness due to the agony, his whole being in a daze, as if he were dead.

After an indeterminate amount of time, Song Jian suddenly felt somewhat suffocated and the space around him seemed confined, as if he was wrapped in a layer of tough membrane.

“Could it be that I've traveled through time? Am I in my mother's womb now?” A thought suddenly surfaced in Song Jian's mind.

Just then, Song Jian vaguely heard several roars of exotic beasts, finally snapping back to reality, realizing he was still in the cave of that underground base.

“I took the Mutated Serum…” Song Jian recalled everything, understanding that he must have been enveloped in a blood cocoon just like the previous Black Dragon Kamata.

He reached out, grabbed the tough membrane enveloping him, and ripped it forcefully, “Zi la,” and instantly, Song Jian felt much more comfortable breathing.

As he crawled out through the torn gap, the blood cocoon that had enveloped him began to slowly dissolve, seeping into the ground, leaving only a patch of dark brown stain where it had been.

At this point, Song Jian suddenly discovered that he was stark naked, all his equipment had automatically been stored in his inventory, not even intimate clothing was left.

“Hiss, at least the Black Dragon Kamata had a layer of underclothing; how come I'm left completely bare!” Feeling a chill, Song Jian hurriedly got dressed from his inventory.

It was then that Song Jian noticed his body felt lighter. Opening his personal attributes, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

“Hahaha, this serum, its effect is really too powerful!” Song Jian couldn't help but exclaim.

All his attributes had increased by twenty to thirty points each, which meant that a single serum had added over a hundred attribute points to him. Although these points were distributed randomly, the increase alone was equivalent to him completing an -rank combat power examination.

In other words, even if his examination task failed, it would still be a huge win!

However, with the meteorite fragment within reach, it would be difficult to fail this examination even if he intended to, a confident smile appeared on Song Jian's face as he walked towards the lake.

Meanwhile, five examinees from the human encampment had already discovered the outer facilities of the underground base and were cautiously approaching with guarded expressions, while their every move was under surveillance by the Thunder Eagle flying high in the sky, ready to report their status to Song Jian at any moment.
