Digimon: I really didn't want to be the Digimon Emperor!

Cheng Yuan asked Hong Zhu, "How much do you know about the ancient wars between the East and West?"

Red Spider shook his head. "That's all I know. This was all passed down orally from the previous Spider Lord. That war... was too long ago."

"The reason I'm telling you this is because these Phantom Blade Beasts are very strange. They are not afraid of the red mist and can move freely through it, as if they are immune to the red mist," said Red Spider. "Although the Phantom Blade Beasts are not strong in combat, their fearlessness of the red mist allows them to live very well in the Dark Flower Sea and develop very quickly."

Cheng Yuan looked at the wisps of red mist drifting in the distance and thought to himself that it was fortunate that he had brought Red Spider, this humanoid intelligence machine, otherwise, if he had rashly ventured in, he might have been infected with the X virus.

Angewomon's X-form evolved directly through the use and consumption of the X-Antibody, not through infection with the X-Virus.

If you are infected with the X virus, you will need to use the X antibody continuously, almost like an addiction, and the dosage will increase until you die.

Cheng Yuan asked, "Is there any way to avoid that red mist?"

Red Spider thought for a moment.

"The red spider lily has a unique characteristic: its flowers and leaves never meet."

When the flowers bloom, they release a red mist.

The flowers withered and leaves grew back, the red mist dissipated, and the area returned to safety.

Look at this sea of ​​flowers now, most of them are still green leaves and buds, it's not the flowering season yet, so most areas are safe.

"As long as we avoid those drifting red mists, we'll be fine."

Cheng Yuan looked in the direction she pointed. Indeed, the entire sea of ​​flowers wasn't spraying red mist; only a few scattered clumps of dark red mist moved slowly in the low sky, drifting like jellyfish.

He breathed a sigh of relief. Luck was indeed on their side. If they had arrived during their prime, it would have been a truly hellish start.

He glanced at the red spider a few more times. This girl, although one of the spider lords of the Spider Tower, had indeed been a great help in terms of her knowledge and reminders about these things.

According to the system introduction and the information obtained from Akelimon, Pansita was also a victim of the ancient East-West War. Whether it was Akelimon's transformation from a humanoid to a monster-type Digimon, or the X-virus and the Spider Lily brought from the Western Continent, which harvested a large number of digital life forms.

"Huh? What are you doing?" Red Spider tilted his head.

Cheng Yuan ignored her. He squatted down, took out several alloy sealed boxes from the data space, then carefully plucked a few spider lilies, roots and all, put them into the boxes, sealed them, closed them, and stored them in the chip.

After watching for a while, the red spider suddenly understood.

"You want to take it back for research? Be careful not to get burned."

Cheng Yuan did not answer her.

The Dark Flower Sea is located within the territory of the Spider Tower, far from Honesty City. Therefore, the beast tamers of Honesty City have never obtained any information about the Other Shore Flower, and naturally have never seen it.

They only occasionally encounter X-form Digimon in the wild, and then issue missions to kill them.

He stood up and patted the mud off his hands.

In the distance, deep within the sea of ​​flowers, a silver-white figure could be vaguely seen. It seemed to have noticed the commotion and then darted towards them.

The trails of those lights were fast, darting left and right, somewhat like Garurumon, but with longer fur and a metallic sheen, suggesting they were up to no good.

[Wealth Points -100]

Garurumon X

[Vaccine Type? Beast Type? Nightmare Soldier]

[Maturity Stage]

[Skills: Demon Fox Flame, Freezing Fangs]

[Introduction: A wolf-type Digimon whose core is enhanced after Garurumon is incubated with the X-Antibody. Under the influence of the X-Antibody, its already mithril-like fur is further tempered by the extreme cold environment, greatly increasing its defense and making its body difficult to damage from external forces. Its fighting instincts are fully unleashed, making it far more aggressive than the original Garurumon.]

Chapter 642 Let's Do Something Big

Just as Garurumon X burst out of the red mist, Cheng Yuan had just put the last spider lily into the sealed box.

Without Cheng Yuan needing to do anything defensive, the Fire God Beast had already moved.

Flames exploded from beneath her feet, leaving a charred crater in the ground, and her body left a crimson afterimage in the air.

Garurumon X reacted quickly; the bone spikes on its shoulders had hardened and lengthened, covered with a thin layer of frost. It suddenly turned sideways towards the direction of Vulcanmon, and the bone spikes swept across.

Frozen fangs!

A cold, white arc was cut through the air, and the chill overflowed, instantly covering the leaves of the passing flower fields with a layer of white frost.

The Fire God Beast crossed its fists in front of it, and flames condensed and compressed on its fists, transforming into a crimson dragon head phantom.

【Fire Dragon Blazing Fist】!

Fist and bone spike collided. With a muffled thud, flames and cold air exploded simultaneously, white mist rose, enveloping a large area of ​​flowers. The figure of the Fire God Princess Beast emerged from the white mist and landed on the ground, completely unharmed.

Garurumon X was in a bad state; a section of the bone spur on its right shoulder was broken off, and tiny sparks were still rising from the broken end. Frost melted by the high temperature was dripping down its shoulder.

It opened its mouth, and a pale blue light began to gather deep within its throat. The light was not like flames, but more like an extremely cold liquid gas, with white frost around its edges.

【Fox Spirit Flame·X】

Garurumon X unleashed a blue-green breath, the flame pillar more than twice as thick as the regular Garurumon version, its surface covered with a crystalline ice shell, burning and freezing simultaneously.

Wherever the pillar of flame passed, the ground cracked, charred, and then covered with a layer of white frost, as it was crushed by two extreme forces at the same time.

The Fire God Princess Beast spun around, flames exploding from her body and transforming into a swirling fire tornado.

【Dragon Shattered Feet】.

She transformed into a fiery dragon afterimage, cutting into the front of the demon fox's flames.

The azure flames were dispersed by the fire tornado she created, and the afterimage of the fiery dragon passed through the range of her breath, sweeping its foot across Garurumon X's jaw.

Garurumon X's head was kicked upwards, and its body flipped backwards. Before it even hit the ground, Princessmon's second punch arrived.

【Fire Dragon Blazing Fist】.

The dragon's head slammed into Garurumon X's chest, producing a muffled boom.

Flames exploded, and Garurumon X flew more than ten meters like a sandbag hit by a truck, crashing into a flower bed and crushing a patch of spider lilies to pieces. It was already unconscious, and a red data aura began to surround its body, indicating that it was entering a dying stage.

The Fire God Princess Beast landed and dusted off her hands.

"If I hadn't suppressed my energy at maturity, I could have crippled it with a single punch," Vulcanmon muttered discontentedly.

She walked over, bent down, and picked up Garurumon X's Digicore.

The surface of the digital core is covered with a thick layer of red crystals, and in the darkest part in the middle, there are faint crosses forming an X shape.

The Fire God Beast casually tossed it to Cheng Yuan: "Here you go."

Cheng Yuan caught it and put it into the data space.

One X crystal obtained.

Red Spider stood to the side, watching FireGirlmon without saying a word. She had previously thought FireGirlmon was quite fierce, but now she felt that "fierce" wasn't quite enough.

Calling it "Tyrannosaurus Rex" would be more appropriate.

"How do we find the Illusion Bee Beast next?" Cheng Yuan asked.

“Go deeper into the flower field; the flowers are denser there, and they like to hide under the flower crowns to collect data.” Red Spider pointed in the direction. “But you have to be careful; the Phantom Bee Beasts are very timid and will hide in the red mist at the slightest noise.”

Cheng Yuan nodded.

He released the sounds of birds and beasts.

A dark figure emerged from the bloodshot eyes of his armor, spreading out silently like a black net, reaching into the depths of the sea of ​​flowers.

Red Spider was stunned for a moment.

“That was a brilliant move,” she said. “We Arkemon can also summon large groups of Spidermon and Spidermon. It’s a pity I’m in human form now, so I can’t use it.”

She paused for a moment, then added, "But your bird-like creatures are all in their juvenile stage, right? I summoned a swarm of mature spiders."

After she finished speaking, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, with a hint of smugness.

Cheng Yuan glanced at her, then ignored her and focused on receiving the images transmitted back by the birds and beasts.

The distribution of the flower sea was more complex than he had expected, with large patches of flowers interspersed with dark red misty bands that stretched across the flowerbeds like rivers.

Several bird-like beasts flew too fast and plunged headlong into the red mist. After flapping their wings twice, the digital cores inside their bodies began to dissipate, and their bodies crashed into the flowerbed, where they never reacted again, becoming nourishment.

Cheng Yuan's brow twitched, and he immediately gave all the birds and beasts a command to avoid the red mist.

He hadn't expected the Soundbird Beasts to withstand the X Virus. These Soundbird Beasts were captured in large numbers in the Holy Ruins Digital Space and then sealed into Blood Eyes; their potential was limited.

These bird-like beasts, which don't even have an evolutionary chain, don't have the luck to withstand the onslaught of X-form.

Cheng Yuan followed the images transmitted back by the Soundbirdmon. Along the way, he encountered a few scattered Digimon, all in their X forms.

Some are mature, some are growing. Hunt them down when you see them. No more nonsense. Pry off the X crystals from the digital cores and keep them safe.

“The X-crystal inventory was already low,” Cheng Yuan said as he collected the items. “This trip is a good opportunity to replenish it.”

"Stockpile?" Red Spider asked curiously. "You're using these dangerous things?"

Cheng Yuan stared at it for a moment, and it wisely stopped asking questions.

After Vulcaniamon defeated several X-type Digimon, Cheng Yuan finally received a picture sent back by Soundbirdmon.

Deep within the sea of ​​flowers, beside a huge cluster of blossoms, several small yellow figures are gathering flowers.

Their bodies resemble those of a semi-mechanical insect, with six thin legs, a pair of translucent wings on their backs, two short blue antennae on their heads, and a thin needle at the tip of their tails.

[Wealth Points -100]

【Phantom Bee Beast】

[Virus type? Insect type]

[Growth Period]

[Skills: Gear Needle, 88 Call (Eight-Character SOS)]

[Introduction: PhantomBeemon is a hardworking insect-type Digimon belonging to the mysterious aerial base "Royal Base." Timid by nature, it is an absolute workhorse. It spends its days traveling throughout the Digital World, collecting digital data from plants and trees to bring back to the base as building materials. In case of danger, it will immediately call for its companions to provide collective assistance. While its individual combat strength is limited, its deterrent power increases significantly when fighting as a group.]

When they arrived at the area, the phantom bees had already left their original positions and disappeared into a wisp of drifting red mist.

Cheng Yuan looked at the red mist with a sense of helplessness.

“These phantom bee beasts are very wary. As soon as they sense even the slightest fluctuation in data, they dive into the red mist,” said Basti Beast.

Cheng Yuan didn't speak. He stared at the red mist for a while, reviewed the information on the Illusion Bee Beast, and his mind raced.

"Cowardly, but vengeful." Cheng Yuan smiled after reading it. "And he'll call in reinforcements?"

So he made the birds and beasts stop hiding.

Three soundbirds emerged from behind the bushes where they were hiding, flapping their wings and swaggering to the edge of the red mist. Then they began to flap their wings against the flower crowns, making a "slap slap" sound, taunting the phantom bee beast.

Despite the small size of the Soundbird Beast, the Illusion Bee Beast wasn't afraid at all and continued collecting nectar, ignoring them.

The Soundbird Beast continued its provocation and even approached, flapping its bat wings against the Phantom Bee Beast's wing.

The Phantom Bee Beast was enraged.

With a flick of its tail stinger, it fired out several serrated, hard, poisonous needles.

The birds and beasts couldn't dodge and took several solid hits, crying out in pain.

"Don't you dare leave, I'm going to call for backup."

The bird-like creature shouted and retreated, looking just like a thug in society.

Half a minute later, several more bird-like beasts flew in. They swarmed over and began pecking wildly at the phantom bee beast.

The phantom bee was beaten senseless, and the blue antennae on its head began to turn red, swirling in the air in a figure-eight pattern.

[8-character call].

Invisible ripples spread in all directions. A response immediately came from the depths of the flower sea, first a few, then a dozen, surrounding the birds and beasts.

The birds and beasts, outnumbered, were stabbed by poisoned needles and scattered in all directions.

"Huh? This looks promising."

Cheng Yuan crouched at a distance, watching the swarm of phantom bee beasts circle in the air after their victory, as if showing off. He immediately gave an order to the nearby soundbird beasts: Go over there, use the "reinforcements" tactic!

A second wave of birds and beasts flew over, twice as many as before, and the two sides started fighting again.

In the second round of fighting, the Phantom Bee Beast was once again at a disadvantage.

The blue antennae turned red again, and several phantom bees began to fly in a figure-eight pattern together.

A stronger signal was transmitted, and more phantom bees surged from the depths of the flower sea. They gathered like clusters of golden mist, buzzing as they approached.
