A different kind of digital world adventure

"Oh, that's not it."

Taiyi shook his head, and then explained,

"We were just wandering around aimlessly."

""

How can someone wander aimlessly with such determination?

Suna hesitated, then said, "Fine, it has to be you guys."

However, this aimless wandering didn't last long, because soon they found themselves in a huge pond.

"This seems to be a dead end."

Bijumon looked around.

"The Anomalocaris doesn't seem to be here, so let's go back and look for another fork in the road?"

"...Do not."

Taiyi was also observing his surroundings, and upon noticing the marks on the surrounding stone walls, he spoke with certainty,

"Anomalocaris must live here."

"This pool should be connected to the outside sea. Anomalocaris should use this pool to go out to hunt and then use this pool to come back and rest."

"That means we need to go down and take a look now."

Thinking this, Taiichi looked at Sora.

"I'll go down with Agumon to check it out. Sora, you stay on the shore and help us out."

"it is good."

Sora nodded without saying much, and at the same time, the Biyomon next to her understood and also spat out a flame on its wing, thus continuing the torch.

"Then be careful."

"rest assured."

As he spoke, Tai gave Agumon a look, and then they both jumped into the pool at the same time.

Upon entering the pool, it was completely dark, but this did not deter Tai. With a thought, Tai immediately began to emit light from the Divine Plan in his hand. Although the light was relatively weak, it was enough for Agumon and Tai to see their surroundings and decide which way to swim.

There wasn't much to think about; the pool only had one passage, so the two of them just swam forward along it.

About ten minutes later, Taiichi saw a glimmer of light ahead, indicating they had reached the mouth of the sea. Without a second thought, the two of them dived out. The instant they emerged, the calm ocean around them began to ripple, followed by an invisible, sharp force that suddenly slashed towards Taiichi and Agumon.

"Soul-crushing!"

This sudden attack was something Tai and Agumon hadn't expected, but unfortunately, the attack was too slow. After they reacted, there were still 0.001 seconds before it hit them, and that was enough time for Tai to react.

"Agumon evolves into Greymon!"

"Super Flame!"

The evolved Tyrannomon unleashed a massive fireball forward, instantly heating the surrounding seawater to extremely high temperatures. Although this gradually reduced the fireball's heat, it still managed to strike the attacker before it shrank to nothing.

boom!

This directly forced the attacker out of stealth.

Red, blue, green, yellow, and purple—these vibrant colors define this creature's body. In addition, it has five asymmetrical, sharp appendages, making it look like a giant water scorpion.

Clearly, this is the Anomalocaris that the Crab Beast was talking about.

Sensing the aura emanating from this Digimon, Tai immediately understood what Crabmon meant by the rather peculiar Anomalocaris.

Because this creature is not only an Anomalocaris, but also an Anomalocaris that has activated its own potential and possesses the X-Antibody.

Anomalocaris X, Ultimate Level

Anomalocaris X hadn't expected that its opponent would react and counterattack in such a sneak attack that it barely had any chance to retaliate. However, upon seeing that its opponent's Greymon was only a Champion-level monster, Anomalocaris X immediately realized that it had the advantage.

So the next moment, Anomalocaris X used its optical camouflage ability to hide itself once again.

Compared to the ordinary Anomalocaris, the activated Anomalocaris X has the ability to perform optical camouflage underwater, and with the help of seawater to lower its body temperature, Anomalocaris X can be described as an invisible killer that comes and goes without a trace in the sea!

Otherwise, the Tyrannomon and the others would never have reacted before Anomalocaris X touched them so close.

So it was just careless. If it had been a little more serious, it could have completely wiped out these two invaders!

In fact, Anomalocarimon X's camouflage is quite something. Tai didn't notice it at first, but now that the battle has started, it's completely impossible to fool Tai and Greymon.

Taiichi didn't even let Greymon continue to evolve. Although Greymon was inconvenient to move around in the sea, it was perfectly fine as a turret to deal with Anomalocarimon X.

So you see Greymon continuously spitting out fireballs, each one interrupting Anomalocaris X's attack. Although the power of each fireball is not great due to the seawater, it is just enough to hurt Anomalocaris X.

Anomalocaris X attempted to charge forward dozens of times, but found it still couldn't get within a twenty-meter radius of Greymon, and was also covered in injuries. Enraged, Anomalocaris X glared at Tai and Greymon and roared in fury.

"Aaaaaah, you fucking bastard!!"

"I'll expose you right now!"

"Assassination attempt is terrifying!!"

Seeing Anomalocarimon X charging towards them menacingly, Greymon and Taichi burst into laughter.

I was afraid you wouldn't come.

Then, with seemingly slow but actually fast movements, Greymon's hands instantly grabbed Anomalocaris X's two appendages.

Then, with a sudden burst of strength, Greymon flung Anomalocarimon X directly onto the surface of the sea.

"Super Flame!"

The Tyrannomon suddenly spewed flames into the sky, instantly engulfing Anomalocaris X.

With a scream, Anomalocaris fell heavily into the sea, and then slowly floated back to the surface a moment later.

Anomalocaris X was already unconscious.

Chapter 120 Pirates

After some conversation, Anomalocaris X realized that these guys in front of him didn't want his life, but simply wanted to ask him a few questions.

"You should have said so earlier! I thought you were going to take over my base."

Anomalocaris X suddenly realized, and then asked rather kindly,

"Alright, heroes, what questions do you have to ask?"

Actually, Anomalocaris X is not friendly at all, but the situation is beyond my control. The other side can beat me to a pulp even if they are just turrets, so I might as well go along with them and tell them everything I know to get rid of these plagues.

Taiichi immediately realized that Anomalocaris X wasn't the kind of friendly Digimon, but he didn't mind. He then asked a question.

Have you ever heard of the Leviathan?

“Leviamon?” Anomalocarimon X pondered carefully, then cautiously said, “I’ve never heard of that name before. Why don’t you describe what that Digimon looks like, and I’ll think carefully about whether I’ve ever seen it before?”

"Yes, it looks like a giant crocodile, only much larger, about the same size as this island."

Taiyi thought for a moment, and then said,

"It was entirely red, and there was a very dense aura of darkness around it."

"Hmm... I don't think I've ever seen it before."

Anomalocaris X thought carefully, but still gave a negative answer.

"If what I'm telling you is really the same size as this island, then I would never approach such a huge Digimon."

"Or rather, ordinary Digimon would never approach them."

"We will even stay far away from any unusual fluctuations in the ocean to prevent any terrible creatures from appearing there and easily killing us."

Hearing Anomalocarimon X say this, Taichi once again lamented the vast difference between the Digimon of the Cyber ​​Ocean and those of the Dark Area and Insect Forest.

"What were the unusual things you noticed before? Can you tell us?"

"There are many more."

Anomalocaris X perked up, then extended its appendages, circled 360° in place, and tapped in all four directions.

“This, this, this, and this, there are abnormal fluctuations all here.”

"Why don't you just say that there are anomalies throughout the entire internet?"

"It's fine if you say it that way."

Anomalocaris X thought for a moment and then nodded.

"That's certainly how it is for me."

"Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to live this long."

Anomalocaris X has been able to survive in this ocean for hundreds of years with its mere Ultimate form, all thanks to its stability.

"No, if you're so steady, why did you attack Taiyi and the others in the first move?"

BlackGatomon couldn't help but ask a question.

Hearing this, Anomalocaris X was also a little excited.

"I didn't attack right away. In fact, I already sensed you coming in. I observed you for a long time and only made my move after confirming that there was no problem."

As he spoke, Anomalocaris X looked a little dejected.

"But who would have thought... that there are such outrageous Digimon in the world."

"My cultivation is still far from complete."

Next time you encounter something unfamiliar, just run away without thinking twice.

Anomalocaris X made a decision in his heart.

Tai and the others were naturally unaware of Anomalocaris X's inner thoughts. In fact, upon hearing that Anomalocaris X had been secretly spying on them the whole way, Tai and Agumon were also slightly surprised.

Although it is not strong in itself, Anomalocaris X's ability to hide is indeed quite impressive. At least Tai and the others did not notice its presence when it was not making any moves. This proves that Anomalocaris X's ability to hide is very strong. As long as it is a little cautious, it can easily become the overlord of a sea area.

But that wouldn't yield any useful information. However, since they had arrived at an area where Digimon gathered, Taichi still asked Anomalocarimon X a question.

"In that case, do you know of any similar islands or gathering places for Digimon besides here?"

"Well... I almost never stray too far from my cave." Anomalocaris X pondered carefully, then pointed in a direction.

"However, I have seen several large ships passing by in that direction a few times when I went out hunting, and some Digimon usually go in that direction, so I think there might be some islands or something in that direction."

That's all I know.

Anomalocaris X looked at everyone somewhat nervously.

"Is there anything else you'd like to know? If not, may I leave?"

The group looked at each other, and then Taichi stepped forward and handed something to Anomalocaris X.

"It's nothing. I'm sorry to have bothered you. This is our apology."

Anomalocaris X looked closely and realized that Taichi had handed him ten candies.

"Data Candy, after eating it, can increase your data volume. It's a new product launched by our Steel Empire."

Taiyi explained it, and then he didn't linger.

"Then we won't bother you any longer. We wish you a speedy transformation into your ultimate form."

With that, the group left the place without any hesitation.

Anomalocaris X watched Tai and the others leave with some wariness, then its gaze fell on the candy in front of it. After hesitating for a moment, Anomalocaris X still tried eating one of the candies.

"!?"

The candy melted instantly in Anomalocaris X's mouth, and more importantly, at that moment Anomalocaris X felt its data volume increase by a full 1%!

The strength of a Digimon is directly related to the amount of data it contains. This 1% increase in data volume is roughly equivalent to Anomalocarimon X gaining 1% more power.

It may seem like a small amount, but considering its current size, it would take a full month of catching fish to increase its strength.

"This stuff works really well!?"

Anomalocaris X was shocked. It quickly collected and hid the remaining candy. Then, Anomalocaris X looked in the direction where Tai and the others had left, its eyes filled with conflict. After a long silence, Anomalocaris X turned around and went back to its lair.

Forget it, following those mysterious guys doesn't suit Yi Ling's nature. It's more comfortable to stay in the lair.

With that thought in mind, Anomalocaris X burrowed into its lair to rest.

Leaving aside Anomalocaris X over there, Tai and the others were sailing in the direction Anomalocaris X pointed when, less than ten minutes later, they encountered a huge ship.
