Pet Simulator

Chapter 99: Infernal Relic!

“...” The white python.

“Let’s go!” Wang Ye stepped onto the path on the left.

In an instant, space changed.

An ugly and ferocious shadow suddenly appeared in front of Wang Ye.

The shadow morphed as it let out cackling sneers. At the same time, it was also like the mirror demon phantom in Anping County that had kept smiling coldly.

Countless scenes instantly appeared in Wang Ye’s mind.

They were all scenes of the human world’s purgatory after they failed in the simulations. Wang Ye’s mind was in a trance as he watched.

There were scenes of Xiao Jiu being stewed after failing...

There were scenes of the white python being boiled after failing...

There were scenes of Anping County being engulfed by the dark fog and the countless souls trapped within...

At this moment, Wang Ye’s body trembled, and his aura immediately became calm.

He abruptly took a deep breath, and his eyes gradually became clear. Although all the illusions were still lingering in his mind, it was no longer able to shake his spirit.

“Calm and Composed!”

......

“Huji!!” The white python coiled around Wang Ye’s neck and cried out.

“Let’s go, I’m fine!” Wang Ye said calmly.

This characteristic was truly awesome.

But in the future, the stronger his pets were, the stronger he would be!

Wang Ye didn’t believe that he would still be a weakling if he obtained all of Xiao Jiu and the white python’s characteristics.

“Huji, huji!” The white python narrowed its eyes and rubbed its head against Wang Ye’s neck. It seemed to catch the familiar smell and felt quite at ease.

The road wasn’t rugged. It didn’t take long for them to reach the end, where in the heart of a large tree, there was an emerald-green pearl.

It looked very valuable.

“We didn’t meet “the other me” on the road. It seems that as long as I’m here in person, there won’t be any illusions. If we remove this pearl, a giant mantis will appear. In the simulation, it seems to have defeated the white python... Hmm, that was when I was not around. What if I don’t take It?”

Wang Ye couldn’t tell what the pearl was made of.

It felt like some kind of treasure, but based on the information from the simulation, if they took the pearl, a giant mantis would appear. Could it mean that the giant mantis itself was suppressed or sealed inside?

Perhaps it was leading the pets or humans here through constructing illusions to take the pearl and let it out?

“Sun Wukong, huh? Well, I’m no Xuan Zang.”

Of course, Wang Ye felt that there were other possibilities. Perhaps it wasn’t that complicated. It was just a simple test.

So, he simply took the pearl.

In the next moment!

“A greedy human... You are really... courting death!” A hoarse voice suddenly appeared!

Boom!

Along with a huge wave of attack, a seven to eight meter long giant mantis slashed down with a sharp scythe.

It was a strange black mantis with four wings on its back and dark patterns on its body.

At first glance, it looked quite ugly like a villain.

There were also many potholes on its body, making it look just eerie.

Wang Ye had never seen a mantis-type fierce beast or pet that looked like this.

Mantis-type pets usually had two wings. The most famous one was the blade mantis, which had both combat and wood attributes.

And this one had four wings on its back and... Hmm, it actually had three scythes!

It had one in each hand and one in its mouth.

“A three-blade style mantis!” Wang Ye was shocked.

What kind of ancient mantis was this?

“These blades are so cool!” He couldn’t help but exclaim.

“Humans are indeed those who only know to spew useless flattery. You! You! Don’t think that I’ll let you go just because you said such words!” The three-blade Mantis waved its scythes and spoke in human language, its voice cold and hoarse.

Hearing this, the white python immediately entered battle mode and looked at the giant mantis vigilantly.

Wang Ye, however, stopped the white python with his hand and gave it a look that said, “Back off first, I’ll handle this.”

The white python was skeptical but still backed off.

“To think you know how to speak human language!” Wang Ye immediately waved his hand and said, “Wait, before I die, I would like to ask a question. At least let me die knowing why, alright?”

“I shall fulfill your request before your death,” The three-blade mantis said coldly.

“Why do you want to kill me?” Wang Ye asked.

“?” Suddenly, the three-blade mantis stopped.

“Why do I want to kill you... Why do I want to kill you...” The three-blade mantis repeated, and its eyes gradually became confused, “Yes, why do I want to kill you...”

“Did someone give you this mission?” Wang Ye reminded.

“That’s right!” The three-blade mantis remembered in a trance. Its expression gradually turned ferocious, “Big brother once said that anyone or any beast that dares to touch the pearl should die!! So, you must die!”

“Then, what if,” Wang ye said, “I’m saying, what if you touch the pearl yourself?”

“Then of course I will kill myself to atone for my sins,” The three-blade mantis said sternly, “But how could I touch the pearl myself? Do you think I’m a greedy human like you?”

Hearing this, Wang Ye casually tossed the pearl onto the three-blade mantis.

“Dong, dong.”

The pearl landed on the three-blade mantis.

“Please,” Wang Ye said.

“...” The white python.

The white python suddenly discovered the good point of its Beastmaster.

“...” The three-blade mantis.

“No! I didn’t touch it myself!” It immediately threw the pearl away in a panic.

“But you touched it,” Wang Ye said.

“...”

The three-blade mantis cried out in pain and suddenly raised its scythe to chop at itself.

Seeing this, Wang Ye was stunned.

He was just bluffing the mantis to get more information. After all, a pet that could speak human language and had a certain level of intelligence would definitely know something.

Besides searching for resources, the most important thing to do in the relic was to investigate the relic itself.

He didn’t expect that... This mantis was serious!

In the next moment, the big tree suddenly moved.

Countless branches began to appear, and one of them wrapped around the three-blade mantis’s body at lightning speed.

“Xiao Dao, stop! It’s been so many years, but your wisdom hasn’t improved. You may leave,” An old voice came from the big tree.

“Second brother!” The three-blade Mantis cried out in alarm and then said resentfully, “No, big brother said that whoever touches this pearl should die. I’ll just kill them first, then kill myself!”

“...” The tree.

“Big brother said that it’s not your fault. Come back first,” The tree sighed, “Human, you’ve cleared this stage. Please proceed. You’re so greedy. You’ve collected so many resources along the way, yet you want to take this blood wood divine seed as well. Logically speaking, you should be a greedy person, but you’re not affected by the truth demon path. On top of that, you’re also calm and glib-tongued even in the face of Xiao Dao. It seems... You’re on the same level.”

“...” Wang Ye.

“Umm, may I ask who you are?” Wang ye asked in a low voice.

A pet that could speak human language had either lived for a long time or had an extremely high level.

“The guardian of the entrance to this place. You may call me elder demon tree,” The big tree said slowly.

“The entrance to this place?” Wang Ye was slightly stunned, wondering to himself, hadn’t he already entered the place?

“Yes. The stage just now was the beginner’s stage,” Elder demon tree continued, “Take a few more steps forward to the place behind me. Only then have you truly entered our territory.”

Wang Ye felt that something was not quite right.

He did not have the chance to run a simulation now either.

He was already here anyway, might as well move forward.

Wang Ye glanced at the white python.

The white python shook its head, indicating that it did not know.

Wang Ye decided to take a few steps forward, walking to the place behind the big tree.

In an instant, the entire space suddenly changed!

The originally blue sky was suddenly rolling with dark clouds while a sea of blood surged.

The mountain ranges in the distance became pitch-black while burning with demonic flames. The blue water below also became boiling lava.

Even the dense forest nearby began to squirm, turning into ferocious giant trees that bared their fangs and brandished their claws!

In mid-air, crows were whispering. On the ground, beasts were smiling faintly.

Darkness raged. Coupled with the blood-red setting sun, they seemed to have come to a hellish world.

“...” Wang Ye was dumbfounded.

F*ck.

Was this a relic of life?

More like a demon’s relic, right?

At the same time, the elder demon tree let out a low and gloomy voice, “Human, welcome to... The Infernal Relic. This is the forgotten... Hell on Earth, a paradise of fierce beasts!”
