Chapter 596: Advanced Divine Water

But Lu Shu did not approach the lizard thoughtlessly. What if it had other means to kills even under such suppression?

Just when he was studying the lizard, the fallen lizard spoke again, “Ma enemies chased me for ma life, and eventually pinned me down here to immobilize me. I haf no idea how long it has been because it’s darkness all around. Ma chilren were killed by tem, so was ma fater…”

“Wait, wait…” Lu Shu’s palm was on his forehead. “Why is your accent so strong? Who did you learn from… Stop there. I may laugh out loud if you talk some more.”

“From the Fallen Lizard’s distress, 999!”

Lu Shu contemplated for a long moment, before he arrived at a conclusion. Animals who had gained intelligence would certainly have to learn human language from somebody. Hence, they would copy the exact same accent as well.

Therefore, could it be a Yuzhou lizard? Lu Shu was unsure, because such species were never observed in Yuzhou. Or perhaps its teacher was from Yuzhou… It was Lu Shu’s first time to encounter such an incident. Back then, the Class A Blood Devil was able to speak Mandarin Chinese because it could extract information directly from human blood. Lu Shu felt it was particularly odd.

Honestly speaking, this lizard’s accent made it seem more down-to-earth than the blood devil…

Would Lu Shu run into Shanzhou monsters, Peking monsters or those from other distinct geographical regions of China? If that was the case, would Quanzhou monsters be excellent vulgarity users? How hilarious to even think about it…

In addition, Lu Shu saw a similarity between this lizard and those people who went to TV shows to squawk about their miserable lives. Honestly speaking, this lizard’s experience was more woeful than many others Lu Shu had seen. Lu Shu hesitated again and asked, “So, what is your dream?”

The Fallen Lizard was utterly confused.

It could not get Lu Shu’s joke!

“From the Fallen Lizard’s distress, +999!”

A wisp of grief actually emerged in the Fallen Lizard’s eyes. “Ma entire family were killed… I’m the only one left in dis world. Hence, for so many years, I only haf one dream…”

“That I can send you off for a family reunion?”

The Fallen Lizard was utterly confused.

“From the Fallen Lizard’s distress, +999!”

Shouldn’t it be to avenge its family? They were not on the same page!

But Lu Shu had no intention to waste any more time with it, and was about to erode it to death with his divine water.

The lizard seemed to have read Lu Shu’s mind. Suddenly it stopped whining and pleaded, “I can be yo mount!”

Lu Shu smacked his lips and replied, “Nah, pass. Other people ride cranes, dragons, giant elephants or phoenixes, or giant eagles at the very least. Why should I ride a lizard… You got issues?!”

“From the Fallen Lizard’s distress, +999!”

It was unexpected that this human had denied it completely based on its appearance alone. What kind of person was that?! It had strong abilities!

In the past few years, the fallen lizard had sensed an increased concentration of Spirit Qi from below the deep cavern, and it wasted no time in reinforcing its own power. Sooner or later it would break free if its lizard underlings were strong enough.

However, just recently, the opening of the remains beside it had boosted the surrounding Spirit Qi concentration to almost the same level of that of its own times. Furthermore, the five pillars used to trap it were getting loose over the years. At this crucial point, it decided to slaughter the humans on the surface and use their blood to break the spell on it.

Unfortunately, it had run into this young man at the beginning stage of its plan. Not only had all its underlings been killed, it could not establish effective communication with the human either!

In fact, Lu Shu’s determination was slightly swayed when the lizard proposed to be his mount. But the problem was, could the lizard be trusted?

If he knew how to enslave the lizard, he would have used it without a doubt. But the methods put forth by the lizard seemed rather risky.

Lu Shu was always a meticulous person. On the battlefield, he trusted none of his enemies except for his own comrades and himself. This had helped him get through many traps.

At this moment, Lu Shu controlled the divine water to surround the Fallen Lizard. To his consternation, the chaos snake, which had been rather excited and impatient about swallowing that lizard whole, had now left the water and stayed on Lu Shu’s shoulder to spectate.

Lu Shu patted the head of the snake. “There’s nothing to be scared of!”

Indeed, there was something strange about the lizard, which explained the snake’s action. Luckily he had not approached it himself.

Seeing that Lu Shu had no intention to come closer, and the black water had already started to corrode its body, the Fallen Lizard almost shrieked in pain.

Even Ming Yueye could not withstand the thick fog, let alone a trapped thousand-year-old lizard! Lu Shu had always had the feeling that the thick black fog had conferred a more advanced power to the divine water in addition to stronger corrosiveness.

At this instant, Lu Shu saw with his own eyes that the golden pillars began to collapse around the fallen lizard, whose tongue immediately swept towards Lu Shu after it regained its freedom.

It was its last resort. It had planned to use it when Lu Shu was closer, but that human was more careful than it had thought. Besides, the lizard had to suffer Lu Shu’s verbal abuse all along too…

But when it was ready to launch its attack, Lu Shu had already returned to the tunnels…

“Not long enough, my friend.” Lu Shu laughed.

As he spoke, a strand of divine water split from the main bulk and wrapped itself around the tongue.

The tongue of the lizard was more vulnerable than other parts of its body. All of a sudden, burning sensations sped throughout its nervous system. In the next instant, the divine water poured into its stomach along its giant mouth!

“Spare me!” the Fallen Lizard cried, “Spare me, Great Lord! I am willing to serf yo with all ma heart!”

“Too late!” Lu Shu laughed coldly and took out a small folding stool from his Seal of Lands. Then, he sat down and watched as the giant lizard was completely digested by the divine water. What a great life, thought Lu Shu. Besides more powerful divine water, he had earned so many distress points too.

In the gruesome underground cavern, Lu Shu was not afraid at all. Instead, he had a sudden craving for stinky tofu…

“From the Fallen Lizard’s distress, +1000!”
