My Items Can Upgrade-Chapter 366 - 187: ‘Love’ Like a Tidal Wave_3
Additionally, its body was covered with numerous sharp spikes, resembling a living porcupine.
Yang Yuan felt an absurd and irresistible sense of danger rising within him.
The aura of this monster far exceeded that of any monster he had encountered before, rivaling even a Celestial-level powerhouse.
’Is this a Celestial-level monster?! How is this possible? How could a Celestial-level creature appear on a Tier Four continent?!’
He exclaimed in shock mentally.
The appearance of Celestial-level creatures on a Tier Four continent meant that any player getting locked onto by such a creature would almost certainly meet their demise.
"Wait, could this monster be the ultimate boss within this Ancient Ruins?"
Yang Yuan suddenly realized the possibility, considering that this world was essentially a semi-finished game, so theoretically the ultimate boss should still exist.
’Just how unlucky am I? Simply passing through here, just trying to traverse this Ancient Ruins, and I still end up encountering the ultimate boss?’
He felt speechless for a moment. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶
Seeing the monster’s aura growing stronger, he immediately made the wisest choice, quickly turning to flee from here.
Fighting with a Celestial creature was undoubtedly an unwise decision.
But just then, he realized he was already surrounded; a mist appeared, and level fifty monsters emerged from all directions.
’It can even summon minions?’
Yang Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly, his expression turning serious instantly.
The situation was extremely unfavorable for him.
If he did not want to become these monsters’ meal, he had to quickly find a breakthrough, or hide within a Safe House in hidden mode.
But doing so might lead to being blocked at the entrance, given the sheer number of monsters.
’Seriously unlucky, next time I encounter Ancient Ruins, I’d better go around unless I can bulldoze my way through.’
As those monsters were about to swarm over, he unhesitatingly shot an arrow.
"Boom—"
A loud explosion ensued as the first monster was hit; the arrow shattered, and a huge shockwave crushed numerous minions.
"Awooo..."
However, those monsters were utterly fearless, charging under the control of the Celestial-level monster.
His figure flickered, traversing thousands of meters, quickly moving through the Ancient Ruins, dodging the charging monsters.
"Awo—"
The roar of the Celestial-level monster came from far behind; it did not seem intent on pursuing him personally.
Of course, it might also be unable to pursue him, restricted to a fixed position.
Yang Yuan suddenly realized that this spot was very likely the center of the Ancient Ruins; his collision with the Celestial-level monster might be because he’d entered the deepest part of the ruins.
No wonder there were no other players here.
Indeed, he intended to cross the Ancient Ruins, while those players were merely here for materials or experience, entirely different goals, thus never venturing so deep.
’This game can only be considered a semi-finished product, but the ultimate boss in the Ancient Ruins is no weakling; defeating such a boss probably requires thousands of players.’
Yang Yuan grumbled internally, continuing his frantic escape with no intention of staying for a fight to the death.
"Awooo..."
More and more monsters emerged from behind, relentlessly pursuing him.
"Boom!"
Yang Yuan fired another streak of light backward, blowing seven or eight monsters apart, the shockwave blasting countless pursuing monsters away.
But it was to no avail; the Ancient Ruins were densely packed with buildings, the remnants blocking the shockwave, unable to cause large-scale destruction to the monsters.
And those monsters, all at least level fifty, had incredibly strong physiques, the shockwave exceeded ten meters but failed to kill them.
As long as they didn’t die, they could quickly recover, then keep chasing him relentlessly.
The surrounding mist grew thicker, yet Yang Yuan couldn’t worry about it much; he needed to escape the predicament first.
He dashed ahead wildly, his reflexes way faster than the monsters’.
Thus, despite their numbers, the monsters quickly fell far behind.
The one haunting him— the Celestial-level monster— never caught up.
He ran for an unknown length of time before there was no more monster roaring behind him, allowing him to stop.
But to his speechlessness, he seemed to have run too far and gotten lost.
Perhaps due to the monsters not chasing anymore, the mist no longer moved forward, allowing him to break out of its range.
"Finally escaped, what terrible luck!"
Yang Yuan took a deep breath, carefully restraining his aura and vigilantly observing his surroundings.
At the moment, he was positioned on a dilapidated street.
He saw vehicles tilted everywhere across the road.
He saw tall buildings one after another.
He saw giant spider webs on the buildings.
He saw the wind lifting papers and other debris flying all around.
Notably, most of the cars lack wheels, only a few having them.
"Wait, the Ancient Ruins I saw before didn’t have so many tall buildings, right? It seemed like all I saw before were low-rise buildings..."
Yang Yuan suddenly realized something, quickly looking back, only to find the mist long gone, and the low-rise buildings he’d seen along the way completely vanished.
Behind him was a crossroads piled with garbage and numerous wheel-less vehicles.
"How can this be?"
"Where is this place?"
He glanced around bewildered, feeling surrounded by the towering, dilapidated skyscrapers and engulfed by flying debris and paper.
