Chapter 168 The Giant Mud Monster King
"Okay, let's handle it this way for now."

"We must use the magic circle to move out before the Pet Beast Guild discovers us."

The priest gave a few instructions.

Several mud monsters emerged from the ground.

They spewed out two people covered in slime from their mouths.

cough cough.

The two coughed at the same time and slowly opened their eyes.

Ye Bai felt like he had almost suffocated just now.

The inside of this mud monster smells awful.

"Mummy monster, use bandages to bind them."

A hoarse voice emerged.

A two-meter-tall mummy monster appeared, wearing a pharaoh's mask on its head and holding a pharaoh's scepter in its hand.

The bandages on his body came off and slithered around like a python.

In the blink of an eye, they arrived on Ye Bai and Shark Hunter.

Ye Bai and Shark Hunter were both tightly wrapped in white bandages, with only their heads showing.

They were then suspended upside down from the roof beams above the warehouse.

Sunlight barely penetrated the mottled roof, forming several irregular beams of light that shone on the dusty ground, creating a stark contrast with the surrounding gloom.

Just then, a ray of sunlight brushed past Ye Bai, and Ye Bai could clearly see that the air was filled with dust.

I wonder if the mummy's bandages are clean.

Ye Bai saw that there were already more than a dozen people around him who were wrapped in mummy bandages.

They all writhed like maggots, their eyes filled with terror.

Ye Bai looked around; it was a dilapidated warehouse.

The warehouse walls are made of old bricks, covered with thick moss and traces of time, with some of the plaster peeling off to reveal the mottled bricks underneath.

In the corner, spider webs were densely packed, with a few small insects occasionally darting between them, and the ground was teeming with countless mud monsters.

In the center of these mud monsters emerged an even larger mud monster, emanating a foul stench.

The air was thick with the stench of dampness, mold, and rotten mud.

The roof tiles were uneven, some were broken, revealing a corner of the sky, and sunlight shone through the broken tiles.

Scattered on the ground were various discarded items: rusty iron buckets, broken wooden planks, faded packing boxes, mechanical parts that had long lost their original shape and function, and a huge dressing mirror.

For some reason, the full-length mirror was still spotless, just like when it was first installed.

A dozen or so men in black robes were busy on the ground, using the Mud Monster to clear a space.

Then, he used a special pen to soak up blood and carved magical patterns on the ground.

"Are these guys inscribing a teleportation magic circle?"

"Could it be that they want to teleport us to their lair?"

But why is the shark hunter so quiet?

Ye Bai looked up at the shark hunter, only to see that the shark had an attitude of keeping its eyes down and its mind at ease.

It seems the shark hunter is even calmer than I am. That's good, that's good.

Just then, another row of mud monsters emerged from the passage.

They spat out more than a dozen people, many of whom were familiar faces.

Mengjia was one of them.

They were bound by a white mummy and hung directly from the roof beam.

The mud monsters on the ground gradually gathered into a ball.

An even larger mud monster appeared.

It seems that this must be the mud clone of the Mud Monster King from earlier. It created a large number of clones specifically to capture students.

The large number of missing participants in the Young Scale Cup has drawn the attention of the Young Scale Cup organizing committee, and it is estimated that they will be relocated soon.

"Report: According to intelligence, Ye Bai and Shark Hunter have been captured by the Gospel Church."

"Tank is still there, laying bricks and building muscle; he seems oblivious to everything."

Chairman Zhang quickly learned a great deal of information.

"Okay, I understand. It seems those people can't wait any longer."

"Now notify the organizing committee to evacuate, and at the same time, take a headcount to see how many people have been captured by the evangelicals."

Have you found where they're hiding?

Chairman Zhang continued to ask.

"Found them. According to the tracking information on the sharks, they are currently in an abandoned warehouse at the school."

"That warehouse is quite large, about the size of a football field."

"Should we surround them first?"

Chairman Zhang shook his head: "No, we shouldn't alert them. Besides, we don't have that many manpower and resources right now."

“She managed to infiltrate the shark hunt, so she naturally has ways to protect the students’ safety.”

"Notify Tank to secretly infiltrate the warehouse and await our next orders."

Chairman Zhang appeared confident and in control.

Sunflower Queen quietly slipped out of Ye Bai's arms.

It quickly split into several clones on the roof beam.

In the event of an accident, the clone will immediately rescue the person hanging from the roof beam; this is Ye Bai's backup plan.

Because the Sunflower Queen's body had shrunk considerably, none of the Gospel Church's elite soldiers noticed her.

Seeing that the magic circle was almost finished, Ye Bai quickly gave the Sunflower Queen a wink, signaling her to find a way to destroy it.

He had a bad feeling that there would be negative consequences after the magic circle was completed.

At this moment, Ye Bai was surprised to find a paper figure the size of a palm floating in the air.

A voice appeared in Ye Bai's mind.

"Don't make a sound, I'm communicating with you in a whisper right now."

“Two hours ago, Chairman Zhang found me and told me that the situation was urgent, so I placed a paper clone on you, and now it comes in handy.”

"The provincial capital's labor union has now begun rescue operations."

"We'll leave as soon as Chairman Zhang is fully prepared."

“I will use the little paper dolls to carry everyone present away.”

Ye Bai nodded calmly.

Although Ye Bai didn't know how powerful his master was, he couldn't even fathom the strength of a single paper puppet.

"Ye Bai, Master, let me test you. If you were dealing with a monster like the Mud Monster King, how would you handle it?"

Master Jiang's discerning voice then appeared.

This is essentially a test for Master Jiang himself.

Ye Bai thought for a moment, then replied, "The Mud Monster King is a strange beast that can split into countless clones."

Its weakness lies in its eyes.

"The Mud Monster King has no fatal weakness when it is in its clone form."

"Only when they are completely integrated will a fatal flaw appear."

"Its fatal spot is about 30 centimeters below its eye, where there is a black dot that is not visible to the naked eye."

"That's where the core of the Mud Monster King is stored."

"As long as we attack this fatal weakness, the Mud Monster King will surely die."

Ye Bai's third pet beast, the spirit of the dragon, can take action. Once it splits into seven dragon-slaying swords, killing the Mud Monster King will be effortless.

"Your foundation is very solid."

"This is how you can deal with the Mud Monster King."

Master Jiang seemed quite satisfied with Ye Bai's answer.

"However, there's one thing you should be aware of."

"Never get caught up in the petrification ray of the Mud Monster King."

"This petrifying ray can turn a person into a petrifier."

"Removing petrification requires special medicinal materials, which are very difficult to find."

This reminded Ye Bai that he could completely reflect the petrification light through the mirror's reflection.

Thus, the Mud Monster King was defeated.

Ye Bai saw a large full-length mirror in the warehouse, wondering who had put it there.

This is convenient for Ye Bai.

"Father, the organizing committee of the Young Scale Cup has discovered that a large number of contestants and some staff members of the organizing committee have gone missing."

"Should we move our people to our base now?"

The priest hesitated for a moment: "Activate the magic circle first, then move the person away."

My brow twitched violently; I had a bad feeling.

Priests have a very special talent called risk perception.

If his brow starts to twitch, something big is bound to happen.

After receiving the priest's instructions, the many men in black robes began to activate the magic circle.

This magic circle is a six-pointed star.

Six men in black robes stood in six positions.

They placed down the precious space stone, intending to activate the magic circle.

However, the space stone disappeared the moment it was placed on the ground.

Everyone around looked like they'd seen a ghost; their eyes were wide open. The space stone had disappeared—how could that be?

The priest naturally noticed this scene.

"Sigh, they always mess things up at crucial moments."

"I have a space crystal here. We can use it to replace the space stone and open the magic circle as soon as possible. We need to teleport out to avoid the risks."

“Once the Pet Guild surrounds us, we will inevitably be purged.”

"The Evangelical Fellowship branch in Yandong Province will also suffer a major blow."

"Not only did we fail to rescue Lord Star Sage, but we also became a laughing stock."

The priest threw a spatial crystal into the magic circle.

However, the space crystal disappeared again the moment it hit the ground.

Everyone looked at each other, unsure of what to do.
