179 Chapter 179, what a big goblin!
After his hands turned into dragon claws, it was much more convenient than using tools. Yang Tian’s claws could easily be inserted into the cave wall, allowing him to quickly follow the cave wall down.
After more than a minute, after descending for more than a hundred meters, Yang Tian finally reached the bottom of the cave.
Yang Tian shone his flashlight down and found himself in a huge space.
The top of the space was in an isolated shape. There were many holes with a diameter of three meters, and Yang Tian came down from one of them.
The temperature in the hole was much lower than outside, and the air was very humid.
What made people uncomfortable was that there was a strong fishy smell in the air.
The space was huge. Yang Tian shone his flashlight down, but he could not see the end of the underground space.
“Those bugs must have come out from these holes. If this is a wormhole, it will be troublesome.”Yang Tian looked at the top of the space again. It was like a beehive.
“Rumble”
At this moment, the ground under Yang Tian’s feet moved.
This movement was not a tremor, but a kind of translation. Yang Tian could clearly feel it.
Under his feet!
Yang Tian immediately used the flashlight hole to illuminate his feet,
under his feet was a moist red sandstone, but it looked very thin, and the distribution was not very uniform.
Yang Tian pulled out the knife from his waist and scratched the ground.
A wisp of white flashed past Yang Tian’s eyes, and then it was covered by the scattered sand.
There seemed to be something on the ground under his feet!
Yang Tian’s eyes widened. He immediately squatted down and placed the knife in his hand horizontally. The edge of the knife scraped the ground.
The red sand on the surface was scraped open, revealing a white substance that looked like an eggshell.
Yang Tian was curious and used the knife to scratch the eggshell-like surface again.
“Puff”
Suddenly, the white hard shell actually broke open. A white tendril rushed out from within and rolled over like a lightning bolt.
Yang Tian cut off the white tendril that was as thick as an arm.
The tendril was soft like an octopus’s tentacle, but it did not have a suction cup on it.
That slash made Yang Tian realize that this tendril was extremely tough. An ordinary person would not be able to cut off this tendril even if they held such a sharp knife in his hand.
“Squeak Squeak!”
At this moment, the little azure dragon let out two excited cries.
Following that, something that surprised Yang Tian happened. The little azure dragon actually enlarged its body and grabbed the tentacle, swallowing it in a few bites.
This thing could be eaten?
Yang Tian’s eyes widened. He looked at the little azure dragon’s somewhat intoxicated expression after swallowing the tentacle.
“Little Dragon, what is this thing?”Yang Tian couldn’t help but ask curiously.
“Zhi Zhi…”
The Little Azure Dragon cried out and explained for Yang Tian.
GNOME!
The Little Azure Dragon told Yang Tian that this thing was a gnome.
It also told Yang Tian that it only knew this because its inherited memories had suddenly awakened.
According to the little azure dragon’s explanation, gnomes existed in the universe. They were a kind of half-animal, half-plant thing. Gnomes grew very, very big. The small ones were only the size of a finger, while the big ones were enough to swallow a planet.
In Yang Tian’s impression, the word ‘goblin’was like a creature from a Western fantasy novel. It was an intelligent life form that was as short as a human.
He did not expect that the ‘Goblin’that the little azure dragon spoke of was such a thing.
Yang Tian squatted down curiously again and used a knife to scrape off all the red sand and stones under his feet.
Soon, a huge ‘egg’appeared in Yang Tian’s eyes,
this ‘egg’was like a huge egg. It was oval in shape and its longest part was more than twenty meters long.
Only then did Yang Tian realize that he had actually stepped on such a thing after coming down from the cave.
“Crack… puff…”
At this moment, a series of dense cracking sounds were emitted from this huge underground cave. Some thick white inner whiskers extended out from the ground and directly drilled into the caves above.
Only then did Yang Tian understand that the huge insects on the ground were all tendrils of flesh extended from the underground gnome.
These tendrils of flesh extended from the ground and hid in the sand. Once any living creature passed by, they would be preyed upon by these tendrils and become the food of this huge gnome.
Preying was the way of life for animals. Plants, on the other hand, were rooted to the ground and used their roots to absorb the nutrients in the ground.
In that case, this half-plant, half-animal gnome must have roots.
Gnomes were creatures without intelligence. They all lived on instinct.
Yang Tian’s arrival had only stirred up a part of the GNOME’s nerves and created a conditioned reflex to attack.
“Zhi Zhi Zhi…”
While Yang Tian was in a daze, the Little Azure Dragon cried out again. It told Yang Tian that it wanted to devour this gnome.
Yang Tian nodded. Of course, he would not object.
“Roar!”
In this huge space, the little azure dragon suddenly transformed again and howled.
Yang Tian immediately followed the path back.
“Rumble!”
When Yang Tian climbed out of the ground, the ground began to shake as if an earthquake had occurred.
“Bang!”
Suddenly, there was a loud sound. The huge little azure dragon, a huge dragon head, suddenly drilled out of the ground.
Yang Tian immediately picked up his backpack and dodged.
The Little Azure Dragon had already become incomparably huge. A dragon head was as big as a house. When it drilled out from the ground, it squeezed the surrounding ground until it arched.
“AO ~”
After drilling out of the ground, the little azure dragon once again howled, its eyes wide open!
“Bang ~”
There was another loud sound, and half of the little azure dragon’s body had already rushed out of the ground. Its two claws continuously pulled on the ground, and behind it, there seemed to be a huge thing.., it was about to be slowly pulled out of the ground by its two rear claws.
Rumble..
As the Little Azure Dragon exerted its strength, the ground shook and the mountains shook. The rock layers within a radius of a thousand meters turned over, arching into a small mountain.
At this time, suddenly, over a hundred huge white tentacles stretched out from the ground, wrapping around the little azure dragon’s body. Then, it instantly straightened up and dragged the little Azure Dragon Underground.
The Little Azure Dragon did not panic. It turned its head and opened its mouth to bite one of the white tentacles, swallowing a large mouthful of white meat into its stomach.
The tentacle that was bitten by the little azure dragon immediately shrank back.
The Little Azure Dragon took a few more bites. More than ten thick white tentacles were injured and shrank back one after another.
“Roar”
The Little Azure Dragon roared and lowered its head. Its two thick front claws slammed onto the ground once again.
“Boom!”
A loud sound rang out.
The front half of the little azure dragon’s body suddenly straightened up.
Seeing this situation, Yang Tian clenched his fists nervously. He was very eager to see what the goblins that were pulled out by the little azure dragon would look like.
