Chapter 316 Black Nest Sea Urchin
Above the nearest ruins, a thick algae screen floats, like a hanging curtain.

Behind the dark green algae curtain, fish shadows occasionally flash by.

Qin Ziwen first cautiously used his insight to observe from a distance.

After confirming that neither the algae curtain nor the fish swimming among it were ordinary creatures, he slowly approached.

This abandoned underwater city is vast and silent.

Some bioluminescent fish, along with some bioluminescent aquatic plants, serve as its only source of light.

"Bang bang bang," the little fishman gestured from the side.

Pula helped translate: "Master, he said there is no danger here. He used to come here to play with his friends often. There are lots of snacks here. It's just that there are some black spiky balls that are annoying sometimes, but those black spiky balls run slowly, so don't be afraid."

Qin Ziwen took the white jade coral out of his mouth and then swallowed a Deep Sea Oxygen.

What is the Black Spike Ball?

Through Pula's translation and communication, Qin Ziwen learned the true identity of Blackthorn Ball.

This is a creature that resembles a sea urchin. Its sharp spines are highly poisonous, and it likes to hide among seaweed and feed on it.

At the same time, they are very aggressive. If they see any living creatures nearby, they will approach them and then stab them with their highly venomous needles.

Before long, Qin Ziwen saw what the little fishman had mentioned.

【Superb Black Nest Sea Urchin: ☆☆☆】: Level 1 Paralytic Toxin.

A sea urchin, nearly half the height of a person, peeks out from among the seaweed.

It is slowly unfolding its "Aristotelian lantern"—the common name for the sea urchin's chewing apparatus.

Like a sophisticated grinder, it sucks in the seaweed, then spins and grinds it.

"This is perfect material for the 'Eternal Hunting Tomb'," Qin Ziwen thought to himself.

Initially, he thought the requirements for Henggu Hunting Mausoleum were very high.

After all, they are ten different extraordinary beings.

Sometimes you might not even encounter one on an entire map.

But everything is relative. Compared to the requirements of another Wonder Card, hunting ten extraordinary creatures in your home doesn't sound so difficult.

The further you go in the map, the greater the probability of encountering extraordinary creatures seems to be.

She noticed Qin Ziwen approaching.

The black-nest sea urchin suddenly trembled.

Instead of moving backward, it floated slightly upward and remained suspended in the water.

The dense black thorns on its body surface opened and closed gently with the rhythm of its breathing, like a trembling forest of needles.

It rolled around once and crashed towards him.

Qin Ziwen stepped back. This thing's aggression was so strong?
Lorne raised his arm, and in Qin Ziwen's perception, an undercurrent surged up out of nowhere, pushing the black urchin backward and rapidly increasing the distance between them.

"Don't let it get away," Qin Ziwen said immediately.

Upon hearing this, Pula patted Lorne on the shoulder, gesturing as he spoke.

The little fishman was taken aback, glanced at Qin Ziwen, then spread his webbed hands and pressed down.

A stream of water crashed down from above, slamming the sea urchin hard onto the roof of the building below.

The black sea urchin rolled around on the wall, scraping off large patches of attached barnacles and grime, while remaining almost unharmed, with only a few white spots worn off the tips of its black spines.

"It's quite hard." Qin Ziwen squinted.

Staring at the black spikes on the other side, a thought suddenly flashed through my mind:
If we could collect these spikes, process them, and make them into arrows or weapons, wouldn't that be useful?

Such a hard natural material, and judging from its properties, it is also poisonous. Isn't this just a natural animal version of poisonwood?

Upon learning of Qin Ziwen's thoughts, Lorne said, "In our tribe, we sometimes collect the toxins from black urchins, but we need to be careful when collecting them so as not to get pricked by their venomous spines."

During this hunt of the Thousand-Eyed Serpent, the spears protruding from the serpent puppets were coated with the venom of the Black Nest Sea Urchin. After being poisoned, the body gradually stiffens, eventually becoming like stone; the victim retains consciousness but cannot control their body, even unable to breathe, ultimately suffocating to death.

After being translated by Pula, Qin Ziwen silently deduced that the venom of the black urchin resembled some kind of potent neurotoxin.

Cao Biansheng raised his spear and cautiously approached.

As he thrust the spear in his hand, he felt as if it had pierced some kind of hard shell.

After being stabbed many times, the black-nest sea urchin kept rolling, almost rolling onto Cao Biansheng several times.

Fortunately, the little fishman cooperated, controlling the water flow to push him away each time.

Mogu stood at the back, arms crossed, glancing indifferently at the Black Nest Sea Urchin. It disdained to attack such a weak opponent.

Seeing how difficult it was for two novices to deal with one chicken, Mogu finally said impatiently, "Its weakness is its mouth and anus."

Cao Biansheng bit his lip, cursing inwardly, "I'm not stupid, of course I know its weaknesses are its mouth and anus."

But that only works if I can actually hit the target!

The lighting was already weak, and the other party kept twisting.

How would I know where its butt is?

After being pricked multiple times, the black-nest sea urchin finally seemed to feel threatened, and its limited brain capacity made a judgment.

It rolled around once, preparing to hide in the buildings below.

As soon as it moved two steps, the surrounding water rushed in from all directions, forcibly trapping it in place.

Immediately afterwards, a sharp pain shot through my rear!
Cao Biansheng let out a low roar and thrust the spear in with all his might, twisting it violently.

A large amount of clear bodily fluid gushed out from the wound.

The sea urchin struggled violently for a few moments, but its movements became slower and slower, like a punctured water sac, gradually drying out and shrinking.

Finally, it quietly settled on the building's surface and never moved again.

After a while, a gray card slowly condensed on its body surface.

Ordinary building card
Qin Ziwen shook his head slightly. This thing was quite dangerous. Despite the risk of it containing extraordinary toxins, two extraordinary beings worked together to hunt it, and it only dropped one ordinary building card.

Cao Biansheng picked up the card, intending to hand it over, but Qin Ziwen waved his hand, indicating that he should keep it himself.

He valued the corpse of the Kuroshio sea urchin more than a regular building card.

If only we could take this thing back and raise it, then we'd have a constant supply of its poison needles.

After dealing with it just now, Qin Ziwen roughly figured out the movement speed of the black-nest sea urchin.

As long as you are careful and stay vigilant, it is not easy to get pricked.

Afterwards, led by Lorne, Qin Ziwen toured the ruins of this underwater city.

After browsing around, he came to a definite conclusion—it was absolutely ripped off!

Apart from the black-nest sea urchins, the rest were just some ordinary marine creatures.
He slowly rose and hovered above the city.

Beneath the dark sea, this sunken city resembles a dead behemoth.

Qin Ziwen gazed down and sighed silently. The abandoned underwater city had been found, but how could they take it away?

Surely it's not like you can just pull out a card and it will "whoosh" suck the entire city in, right?

"Ok?"

Qin Ziwen raised an eyebrow.

He hesitated for a moment, then took out the wonder card that shimmered with multicolored light.

In an instant, a great light shone forth.

The five-colored light on the wonder card surged out and completely engulfed the city below.
