The Lord of the Nerubian Lord Anji Gu Li Li was currently extremely angry!

It was one of the first generation of giant mutants to come into being after the Cataclysm. When it reached adulthood, it returned to land from the deep sea due to this instinct, and then came to the underground base of the Cossacks to build its own lair. When the sixth layer of the base and above were all destroyed by Angie Gulet, she used her own energy to raise the temperature of the cave, causing the frozen subterranean channel to flow again. Finally, the entire cave was filled up, and Angie Gulet entered a very long period of hibernation.

On the head of this tyrannical creature, various strange creatures also quietly occupied the bases of various levels. They made their home in the base and formed their own territory. They could have continued living in peace for ten, twenty, or even more years. But not long ago, Angie Gulet woke up from her deep slumber because she was also in her reproductive phase.

Unlike the other creatures on the base, who only had short breeding periods, Andrét's breeding cycle was long. It would take at least a year for the process of producing an egg from the inside of the body to the point where the egg could be removed from the body. Andrét's breeding cycle was long enough for the new era, when all the biological cycles were shortening. It was not the only one. The other giant creatures were all the same, and the survival rate of their young was lower than that of the other beasts.

This was the law of nature. Even though Angie had endless biological energy, she could not change her current situation.

Thus, Angie Gulet cherished his chance to reproduce, which was the only way he could pass on his race. After Angie Gullitt carefully passed the year-long breeding cycle, she finally entered the ovulation period. In order to avoid the sight of so many lives that would make him hungry, and in order to make the next generation more fertile, Angie Gulet had broken through the outer walls of the five-storey base and poured the ground water into it, transforming it into an environment that was suitable for the survival of young.

And when tens of thousands of mature fish eggs are laid into the five-storey base, it's a disaster for the man-faced moth that lives in the five-storey base. Within two hours after the mother was expelled, the eggs began to rupture. At this time, the life characteristics of the young started to collapse due to the special genes of the mutated beasts. The densely packed fish eggs filled up the space behind the base. Amongst the millions of fish eggs, only about a thousand of the hatchlings were still alive.

Angie Gullitt's baby was only the size of a puppy when it broke out of its shell. They, like other egg-like organisms, instinctively eat the shells that surround them after birth to absorb the rich protein and other nutrients in the shells. After eating their own eggshells, they will enter their first sleep. The resting time was only 24 hours, and during this time, the young would undergo their first evolution. They grow in size, from a puppy to the size of a wolfhound. They grew sharp teeth and, behind the original pair of eyes, two other pairs of compound eyes. However, at this time, the two compound eyes were still covered by a layer of greyish white flesh and could not be opened immediately.

The larvae at this stage were the hungriest. They left the fish egg region and went through the ground water that Angie had poured into the base. They swept through the base to hunt down other creatures to nourish themselves.

Three days later, Angie Gulet's young son entered the second stage of evolution. In addition to further enlarging the body shape, the other two pairs of eyes of the larvae shed the membrane, which can be overlapped when looking at the surrounding data to create a panoramic view of the spatial stereoscopic model. On the other hand, the rear end of the larva will produce a pair of spray organs, which can be used to accelerate when needed. This variable speed movement mode is also a good method for the larva to catch its prey.

Originally, Angie Guritt's prediction. After five days, the ground water will rise to the base level where the larvae can enter the fourth layer of the base. At that time, its young will be able to enter the fourth layer of the base to hunt for food. In 20 days, it will allow the entire underground base to be submerged in water, making it a paradise for the young to survive.

In half a year, there will be about two hundred of the nearly thousand young. At this point, these descendants were about to evolve for the third time. After their evolution, they already had the elementary form of the Nerubian Lord. They would be as big as a ship, and would grow whiskers on their bodies that could be used for hunting. At this point in time, they were no longer natural enemies. In another two years, after the battle, there would be only one cub left. This surviving cub would enter its final stage of evolution. The fourth evolution would allow it to completely transform into a true Crypt Lord, and its size would become as large as Angie Gulet's mother. Every one of the meat tendrils would produce countless energy storage organs and energy exertion nodes, and the whole body would also produce pieces of hexagonal biological armor. These armor pieces were not only the shell of the Nerubian Lord, but also an important energy circuit.

When the young Crypt Lord appeared, Angie Gulet would leave. It had completed its task of reproducing, and it would then return to the deep sea. Who knows? Maybe it will settle in a corner of the Endless Sea forever, or maybe it will die in the mouth of some other sea giant.

However, no matter what, it would not be the current situation of the base.

Just after the second stage of the evolution of Angie Gulet's larvae, it became aware of the arrival of humans. It would be fine if they were only operating on the first and second floors. However, Angie had sensed that these humans were heading towards the base on the fifth floor. However, these humans' biological energy was not that strong, so the Nerubian Lord did not put them in his eyes.

The only thing that concerned Angie was the two humans outside the base, as well as the woman who had disturbed its slumber two years ago before finally settling down on the second floor of the base. With regards to this powerful neighbor, Angie Gulet cared more about her than the other two at the base. On this woman, Angeli Gulet smelled something other than human.

Although in this new and changing age, human beings have been very different from the same kind of people in the old. However, no matter how much humanity evolved, it would never become another organism. But on this woman, Angie Gulet did smell something that didn't belong to a human. The smell came from the blood. In Angie's eyes, this woman was wearing a human outfit, but inside it was the blood of a monster!

Not long after the appearance of the foreign humans, the one that Angie had been paying attention to was heading towards the underground base of the fifth floor. There was an invisible line between all the powerful creatures. Once across this line, it could be considered a provocation. The Angie Gulet line was at the entrance to the base on the fourth floor, but neither the alien nor the woman had dared to cross the line it had set, which made Angie Gulet angry.

What made it even angrier was that the woman had accompanied other humans to kill a large number of its young. At this moment, one of the humans had reached the deepest part of the base. Angret attacked angrily, but the two powerful humans outside the base had not only entered the base, they had also stopped him from killing. This was already beyond the limits of Angie Gulet's tolerance.

For the sake of his own descendants, for the sake of his own dignity, he wouldn't allow anyone to provoke him. The angry Nerubian Lord finally broke out of the water and headed straight towards the 5th level base.

Immediately, the entire base shook violently. The magnitude of the tremors even affected the surface of the ground, causing the snow on the ground to be on the verge of collapsing.

At the same time, the ground of the underground five-storey base first rose up a lot before suddenly splitting apart. In the center of the base, there was a huge hole that was more than a kilometer wide. Water poured down from the ground, causing the base's water level to rise abruptly. The water that suddenly became hurried brought out countless strange fish that were hiding in the corners. They desperately tried to stabilize their bodies in the water but discovered that the water that they were used to was now unfamiliar. No matter how hard the strange fish tried, they couldn't stop themselves from following the flow of the water.

As for Valkyrie and Carrion, their respective methods did not budge in the sudden torrent. Valkyrie simply thrust his spear into the untorn ground of the base and allowed the current to rush past her without shaking her, while Carrion maintained the rippling energy that enveloped his body, the guiding function of the ripples so that the oncoming torrent naturally split in front of him, up and down, and then converged behind him.

A quarter of an hour later, the water current gradually disappeared, and the area that had occupied the entire fifth floor suddenly became quiet. Following that, waves of ripples spread out in the water. As soon as Valkyrie and Cario were swept by the ripple, they felt as if they were being watched. They immediately understood that their position had been exposed.

With this thought, dozens of tentacles suddenly broke through the water and swept over. Tens of tons of pressure caused the ground to be drained away, creating streams of strong water that pulled countless fragments towards the two.

The spear in Valkyrie's hand lit up with a milky white light, and the dark red energy undulations around Calo's body also grew brighter and brighter. In the end, a red and a white glow appeared at the bottom of the water, which rose slowly before heading for the whiskers that had been lashed out by Angoulette. The moment it came into contact with the water, the red and white belt of energy swept through the entire water area, immediately creating a ten-meter-tall water wall that spread out in all directions!

The entire base shook violently again, causing Zero, who had just ran out of the fourth floor, to lose his balance and fall to the ground.

Unexpectedly, his waist suddenly tightened, and then Zero flew up into the air and landed firmly on Ma Pei's shoulder. It was Maple who caught him just in time and hoisted the zeros onto his shoulders. Just like that, with Zero on his shoulder, Ma pei followed the team and ran towards the exit of the 4th floor's base. They ran with them as if they were escaping from the battlefield. Human-faced moths and the Goddess of Vengeance also joined the ranks of those fleeing for their lives.

The battle that broke out in the five storey base was not something they could get involved in, and if they weren't careful, they would be in danger of destruction. They did not dare to stay on the edge of the battlefield, and the other creatures in the base had also sensed the battle underground. No matter if it was the aura of the Nerubian Lord, or the might of Valkyrie and Calo, they were all pressing down on their nerves like predators.

As a result, the large group of attacking sickles suddenly stopped and quickly dispersed like a tide, revealing their prey that they were surrounding and attacking.

Anthony was covered in blood, feeling the tremors in the base, he asked doubtfully, "What's going on?"
