Chapter 2256: 2256. Ancient Parasite



It had been soem time since Walker had gone to look at the underground areas of Genesis especially the connecting parts where the earth dragon territory was being built. But he was there now and he was pretty amazed.

The size was just one small part of everything. Well, if you could call it a small part. In actuality, it had been expanded substantially. The large amount of supports built were expertly crafted to hold up for generations with minimal maintenance. Making the ceiling much safer.

This wasn't all of it though, the buildings were made to be able to handle a great deal of weight or damage. Meaning that even a naturally occurring earthquake causing a collapse might not cause the buildings to fall. Meaning that those within would be safe from the rocks and could be rescued.

Hence why Walker focused on the new additions of safety escapes where those living within the underground city could escape to without much stress. From there, the hidden tunnels should be accessible to them to escape as long as the maintenance on them was upkept, A perfect way to escape if there was a disaster.

The water rune formations and movable barriers also proved an amazing resistance to any potential flooding that might occur. The chances of this were slim, but the dwarven race had learned from their mistakes. If they did not plan for flooding, then they would have to deal with floods constantly.

That's how fate worked after all.

Otherwise, it was a bustling underground city where the buildings had been finished. Plenty of workshops to process ores and other goods were perfectly built to efficiently allow everyone in and out. This was just the entrance area though, the inside of the underground areas were filled with various workshops for those who could not get one on the surface.

Otherwise, there were personal workshops here that were more peaceful than those above ground. It would allow some of the people who preferred silence when crafting to have it. It was also a surprisingly vibrant area for a peaceful walk since there was already artificial light using light mana gems which gained their ability to radiate light from the light rune formations moving through the earth to the surface.

This was all to ensure that the herbs down here grew, the herbs that needed sunlight that was. Others were inside caves to ensure that they received the darkness they needed. It was all tended to very carefully which brought an interesting aspect of beauty different from the surface.

"Follow me, the best path is through the small market road." Terron seemed somewhat energetic.

From Walker's perspective, Terron had changed a lot more than the other royal dragons since he had accepted Genesis and begun to grow in his own way. Besides the fact that the earth dragons were more solitary and lower in numbers because of that, he had managed to bring them together very much more compared to the past.

On top of this, his stubbornness had calmed. There was also that prickly attitude that preferred to push people away as well. He had changed and actually become quite warm, energetic and joyful even. Not that it was clear to see this overall. He still maintained some stone faced calm on most days.

Yet, Walker could just feel it. Terron walked with an aura of pride around him. It was good to see that he had made significant changes to his life and was working very hard to see an even better change.

'Earth eater

This parasite is a parasite that literally feeds on the earth and all things with earth mana itself. It is able to eat small rocks at first but will slowly grow adding new spiky sections on to its body as it does. After a certain length, it will start to follow its mana senses to find stronger earth mana within other rocks or ores.

Eventually it will even go after monsters, races, or solid metal. As long as the earth mana is stronger, it will chase after it to consume it and grow.

While extremely resistant physically, they are susceptible to magical attacks, this is to a small degree because of their physiology though. If pieces of them break off, they can survive. The larger portion of their body can regenerate by absorbing ambient earth mana.

They can be dormant within a rock for hundreds of years until the right environment allows them to awaken and grow. Often being forgotten in caves where the flow of mana stagnated due to natural disasters.

If they were to live in an extremely earth mana rich environment, they can reach sizes of immense proportion. Even being able to consume the largest dragons and earth whales. They are a plague to the world where they were born and could be an even worse plague for the

earth elemental plane.

Their natural predator...'
