The skin of the "beast" is dark red, with a layer of fine scales covering the fortress muscles. The bare head is wrapped in a thick layer of wrinkled skin. The Tianling is deeply sunken down to the center of the head and face. The eyes are bulging, the pupils are deep red, and the background color is dark yellow. There is almost no boundary between the mouth and nose, forming a circle of deep purple area like a mess. The saliva flows, ugly and vicious.
Just looking at this image, there is no doubt that it is some kind of abnormality. The shape is a bit like a gibbon, but a hundred times uglier.
Ronan didn't know if this guy belonged to the discovered type of abnormality. Anyway, he had no memory of it, so he temporarily nicknamed him "The Ape with the Bad Mouth".
At this time, the rotten-mouthed ape was facing him with crimson pupils, staring straight at him. It was obvious that although they could not attack him, the other party could locate his specific position on the spiritual level. This alone was better than most people Ronan had seen.
After about a minute, the rotten-mouthed ape probably got tired of the meaningless stares, and its strong body slowly sank and disappeared into the clouds. Until the end, its eyes did not leave Ronan's position. Its eyes were cloudy, but they had the unique cruelty and greed of a predator.
This made Ronan understand that this rotten-mouthed ape regarded him as prey and had no intention of giving up in a short time. As long as it is given a chance to break through the isolation on the spiritual level, it will kill Ronan without hesitation, tear Ronan into pieces, and then devour and digest it.
Some time later, Ronan’s idea was verified.
As expected, the rotten-mouthed ape did not leave. It maintained a high degree of patience and strong desire, and kept wandering around Ronan, ready to make a move, and sometimes it actually started. With its overbearing attack mode, even if the attack failed, it could still attack Luonan. South applies pressure.
From this point of view alone, the Rotten Mouth Ape is worthy of being an apex predator. It is trying to turn a failed raid into a death marathon that tests endurance and determination.
It is indeed quite hard to control the soul body deep in the spiritual level at all times and avoid the attack range of the Rotten Mouth Ape. The "cloak" must be used for fixed interference at all times, which consumes a considerable amount of soul power.
But what needs to be emphasized again is: Ronan is not afraid of consumption, consumption, consumption!
Say important things three times.
It is not easy to operate at the deep spiritual level. The current consumption rate of soul power has indeed slightly exceeded the output of the "production line", but only by a little. Just like the evaporation of sea water by the sun, it is considerable from a purely quantitative perspective, but compared to the total volume of sea water, this "little bit" of consumption can be completely ignored in a short period of time.
If Ronan wanted to, he could race this rotten-mouthed ape for days and nights to see who would fall down from exhaustion first.
However, Ronan has no intention of self-abuse, and he is not willing to waste his precious time on meaningless pursuits. After taking the opportunity to observe for half an hour, he increased his speed with all his strength, using the astonishing flying speed of his soul body to forcefully escape the pursuit of the Rotten Mouth Ape and regain his innocence.
Even after getting rid of the threat, it was still beyond Ronan's expectation to see such a vicious creature in the cloud area guided by the gears and external neurons.
During the previous half-hour chase, Ronan was not simply observing the aberrations. He also followed the reconnaissance method he had just learned, crisscrossing around the temporarily set center to expand the sensing range as much as possible.
At present, he cannot come up with an exact number, but he can roughly estimate that the soul body continues to expand at a high speed, and the cross-section of the covered area may have exceeded 10,000 square kilometers, which is almost a vast airspace with a diameter of 100 kilometers, which is equivalent to Xia City The size of the core urban area.
But not only did he not discover the limit of the clouds, in the end, almost all directions above and below were blurred. Only one thing is clear: the rotten-mouthed ape he encountered appears frequently in this airspace.
He no longer thinks about "two or three kittens". Even if there are only a few of these powerful and ferocious "kittens" in a 100-kilometer area, they are still too crowded for an apex predator.
They move like lightning, and their range of motion is frighteningly large. Ronan tried to actively target two of them. After only a few minutes of following, the targets jumped out of the sensing limit one after another, but at the same time, new bad-mouthed apes jumped in.
Last time due to falling from a high altitude, Ronan only stayed here for more than ten seconds and avoided encountering them head-on. It was simply the first-class luck.
Alas, he seems to have overlooked something... needs to be sorted out.
First of all, the encounter in the gear patio and the wonderful use of external neurons proved that my mother, well, there should be someone else, should have been here.
Secondly, no matter what the mother's fate was later, they did escape unscathed that year.
Ronan roughly estimated the strength of Rotten Mouth Ape. From the attack power alone, it should be above level B and below level A. And they seem to live in groups, which can be said to be quite terrifying. There are only a few similar places on earth, and they are all desperate situations that even extraordinary species have to avoid.
Did his parents already have this kind of strength at that time?
There is really no way to judge from the few words about my mother in my memory. This possibility cannot be denied, but there are other explanations: for example, the cloud world back then was not so dangerous...
This idea came to mind because Ronan noticed that the only creatures flying through the clouds were rotten-mouthed apes, which were very monotonous. Based on his limited knowledge of ecology, it didn't quite make sense.
Even if it is an aberration, it is still a living thing. It must have the minimum needs for survival, and eating is the most basic. The rotten-mouthed ape does have a strong desire to hunt, but the cloud environment is too monotonous. So far, only this type of creature has been found, and there are no other high-energy-density mineral plants for intake. Have the basic conditions to "feed" them.
In addition, even if they keep their distance from each other and remain vigilant, there is no strong desire to kill each other. Devouring each other, etc., cannot be a regular option.
Of course, this is an estimate of the Rotten-mouthed Ape as a deformed species and a living creature. If this thing is just a fantasy species that eats wind and drinks dew, and is a member of the legendary gods and demons, just pretend that he didn't say anything.
is that so?
The possibility is very low, because due to the interference of the powerful life magnetic field, Ronan is temporarily unable to draw a life sketch for the Rotten Mouth Ape, but the violent and scorching life energy cannot be faked, let alone the substantial desire to hunt.
In summary, it can be concluded that these rotten-mouthed apes are likely to have temporarily entered this area due to the influence of special factors.
For example, hunting down prey.
The rotten-mouthed ape who had just hunted him was very skilled in hunting, and he also chose his shots appropriately. He was also cautious and patient in hunting, as if he had practiced it regularly. A simple inference from this is that, at least in the near future, they should have such a goal:
Being good at wandering on the spiritual level, he is likely to have the ability to interfere with the material world;
Possessing certain counterattack means, even the ferocious and deformed mutants with B-level strength suffered losses;
The main activity is in the cloud area, but it is possible that he has been to other places and caused such a lot of trouble.
Well, there must be some... Ronan's confused thoughts were finally clear. But after it became clear, the first thought was to slap myself in the face.
If he guessed correctly, that target was thrown in by him himself: it was the Snake Whisper!
That's right, that day passed through the gears and was rushed out in the clouds. Ronan still had a snake in his hand that had been counterattacked by the spell. He was in a hurry at that time, and he somehow lost the snake language. Thinking about it carefully, it was indeed the most likely place to throw it here.
If so, Snake Whisper is in a state of fugue. Even if he is hit by the nightmare leaf vine curse, he will not fall to death. He has been here for ten days, right?
Ronan was a layman in the field of spells, but after that day, he also learned a lot about the snake language, and knew that the woman was one of the few spell masters in the world, and her mind was extremely powerful. No matter how hard the spells backfired, I'm afraid I won't be able to trap her for too long.
If we consider this line of thinking, the current situation has a relatively clear explanation.
Of course, this is purely speculation. Maybe he has something in his mind, his thinking is wrong, or he may be going in the wrong direction.
But no matter what, Ronan's mood now showed signs of deterioration.
The joy and sense of accomplishment of finally entering the cloud world after overcoming all difficulties have been shattered by the impact of the volcanic eruption of Rotten Mouth Ape.
But before I could clear things up, I thought about Sheyu again.
He just wanted to think about the big secret that his mother had hidden for many years, a weird and wonderful world in the clouds, and he didn't even have a clue yet, so he let a ghost in his hand toss it for ten days.
What if there are any valuable clues that are destroyed by Snake Talk, or are deliberately hidden and spread by her?
The more he thought about it, the more anxious he became. Ronan made up his mind to find Snake Whisper. He wanted to see the person in life, and he wanted to see him in death... and he wanted to see convincing evidence even in death.
Ronan thought about it and decided to follow a rotten-tailed ape for a long period of observation before making a decision.
However, the tracking did not go smoothly. The target chosen by Ronan was not the one who attacked him before, but was chosen at random. This guy is slightly smaller, but just as tough. He was deep in the spiritual level and exceeded the attack range of the Rotten-tailed Ape, but the latter still sensed it.
The long-term stalking made the target react greatly. He turned around many times to chase him, but he could never touch Ronan's real body. He became very manic, kept walking in circles, and refused to cooperate.
Ronan was annoyed, but at the same time he couldn't help but admire that such a keen perception, as well as an attack mode that simultaneously suppressed the physical and spiritual levels, was a perfect method in the areas that the Rotten-tailed Ape could reach.
Judging from the information obtained by the association, extraordinary types are excluded. Due to the different nature of abilities, people with various abilities will always be somewhat biased.
Just like the Burner, the Format Fire can also attack dark side species like the Man-Faced Spider, but its lethality is somewhat weaker than in the material world. Unlike the Rotten-mouthed Ape, its destructive power is astonishing at any level and there is no obvious transformation loss.
As for how to use it, how many experience points can be gained by just observing it a few times? Even if Ronan wanted to recreate it, it would be difficult for him to do it, and he could only drool over the tricks of the bad-tailed ape.
Time passed like this, minute by minute. Ronan knew that it would be difficult to find clues related to the snake language no matter what. Just when he was about to change his mind, a strange feeling spread from the other side of the void.
It's like a physical sensation.
