The Abyssal Garden: No Room for the Idle-Chapter 211 - 169 Somehow Looks Familiar Again_2
It must be a huge creature!
At that moment.
Bald suddenly raised his hand, gesturing for everyone to stop.
"What's going on?"
Everyone paused, slightly startled and anxious.
"Shh..."
Bald extended a finger, placing it upon his lips; his expression somewhat solemn as he looked into the distance.
The mist wasn't too thick, visibility was around one hundred meters; anything further became a vast white expanse.
"Danger is approaching," Ethan Dawn furrowed his brow gently. As a player who had appeared directly in this world, he had encountered more dangers than one might imagine and had seen many bizarre things. He knew this place was full of terrifying threats.
Everyone held their breath.
On their journey so far, they hadn't attracted much attention from monsters, encountering only the occasional scattered pollution monster which they readily dispatched, given their small numbers.
However,
Bald knew too well that those were insignificant pollution beasts without any ranking, barely posing a real threat.
But now...
A chill kept creeping into his heart, although he saw nothing, his years of keen intuition told him... there was a strange danger nearby.
The best course of action now was to remain still.
There were too many people present; they could fight against disorderly small beasts, but if they encountered some horrific and odd entity, its strange abilities alone could kill hordes of people.
Su Qi looked into the distance; his Spiritual Eyes faintly gathering energy, allowing him to see a large, vague silhouette dragging its heavy steps closer.
Its pace was neither fast nor slow, its movements like that of a stiff corpse, all the while accompanied by a frightening silence.
"It's coming!"
Someone near Bald frowned deeply, with bloodshot eyes; they too saw the existence a hundred meters away.
"This is... the One-eyed Butcher!"
Through everyone's eyes, they beheld the pollution monster... standing five to six meters tall, skinless, with flesh and blood vessels exposed, holding a thorny iron spike!
"Everyone stay silent, no matter what happens, don't make any moves!" Bald's expression changed, he immediately whispered urgently.
The terrifying presence made everyone shiver!
Just like themselves, pollution monsters also had various rules.
Like the One-eyed Butcher before them, it did not concern itself with static things, but any slight movement would trigger its ferocious bloodlust, continuing until everything turned into minced meat!
The One-eyed Butcher was slowly approaching, its steps might have been slow, but the sense of oppression was intense!
That eye, devoid of eyelids, drooping with blood vessels, watched everyone intently!
It seemed to be observing!
No one dared to move, even Bald and the others had sweaty palms!
Such an entity was a great danger to them as well.
"It's here..." Ethan Dawn's expression also became tense.
However, Su Qi's gaze wasn't fixed on the One-eyed Butcher, but he looked past it, towards the distant mist.
Because
there was an even more dangerous presence...
And just then,
within the surrounding mist... sudden, barely audible, sinister screeches emerged, as if fingernails were scraping a metal sheet!
"Ah!"
The piercing sound caused everyone's eardrums to ache, and they inadvertently let out a noise! They quickly came to their senses and covered their mouths in horror!
But they realized that the One-eyed Butcher hadn't charged at them.
Instead, it stood quivering!
In the next moment,
The One-eyed Butcher showed an expression of fear and quickly fled without looking back!
Everyone was stunned.
"What's happening?"
"The One-eyed Butcher ran away!"
Bald, however, did not relax even a bit; his face grew even more somber as he listened to the sounds from the mist!
What kind of terrifying creature must it be, to make the One-eyed Butcher flee without hesitation?
The group waited a while, but still, nothing seemed to emerge from the mist.
"Why hasn't it appeared yet..."
"This screeching... feels like it's right in front of us..."
"..."
Su Qi softly reminded:
"Look... in the sky, there's a surprise."
Ethan Dawn felt a shock and raised his head, as if he'd just fallen into an ice cave, he growled,
"Damn it all to hell!"
Everyone else now also lifted their heads, their eyes splitting wide with terror, their hearts and livers trembling.

Thirty meters above their heads... there was a huge spider. Its limbs merged seamlessly with the fog in the distance and the forest... its body loomed right above them, on top of which were countless compound eyes with various pupils rotating back and forth, sizing them up!
Ethan Dawn couldn't help but tremble and say,
"Fuck, did I not read the almanac today? Why are there horrifying creatures everywhere?"
Indeed, the completely broken world was fraught with danger, but you couldn't just take a few steps... and then face a terrifying existence that could annihilate everyone!
"Look on the bright side..."
Su Qi's gaze shifted upward, "What if the other party is just friendly and curious?"
"This is a polluted world!! Where would you find any friendliness!" Ethan Dawn nearly shouted.
He said shakily, "... I've only just begun, and I haven't even found that Su Buxian! Is it going to end already?"
Thinking of me so much...
Su Qi looked at the compound-eyed spider, a Pollution Monster with twisted spiritual characteristics. Its mere appearance caused others to experience terror, dangerous emotions, and then become its food!
But.
Spiritual power and pollution...
Su Qi's eyes flickered slightly, Spiritual Eyes brimmed with Spiritual Energy, emitting ripples, and an aura akin to that from the Abyss condensed! High Spiritual Attribute combined with... a simulation of the Evil God's aura.
The next moment.
The giant spider's compound eyes trembled violently, and it let out a scream of terror!
A hissing that exploded like a burst!
Everyone felt dizzy and hurriedly covered their ears!
Then, eyes widening, they watched the giant polluted spider, like the previous one-eyed Butcher... flee madly without looking back! Its fear even surpassed that of the one-eyed Butcher!
"What's going on!"
"It just ran away like that? And it was scared off!"
Everyone was dumbfounded! Utterly at a loss!
Su Qi was also surprised for a moment; he hadn't expected... the effect to be so strong. His own Spiritual Eyes naturally had a strong deterrent effect on all pollutants. After simulating a bit of the Evil God's aura, he had originally intended to make the spider slightly stunned, giving everyone a chance to respond and escape.
As a result.
The opponent scampered off, wetting itself!
The deterrent effect was that terrifying.
"Could it be..."
Su Qi hesitated for a moment: "Did my title upgrade, making the simulation ability climb a level... or was it after contact with the Evil God's projection that the suppression effect of the Spiritual Eyes became even stronger?"
Simulation of aura was usually easy to see through for normal people... after all, having the aura without the strength led to many flaws.
But.
In this so-called dangerous polluted instance, all the terrifying monsters didn't have much of a brain.
So then...
I could potentially be their God.
Ethan Dawn also looked in astonishment at the scene, turning to Su Qi: "Did you feel a sudden chill just now, as if being pricked by numerous needles, a phantom pain?"
"What is it?" Su Qi asked knowingly.
"It means there must still be terrifying monsters nearby!"
At that moment, Bald also spoke up shakily:
"Everyone!"
"We must immediately quicken our pace and swiftly leave this place!"
Everyone was mentally exhausted, nearing collapse, and all of them felt like they were on pins and needles, gripped with overwhelming fear, not just walking but starting to run!
Running faster and faster.
Even Bald in front didn't stop.
"They've been affected..." Su Qi looked at the others: "And... it seems quite serious. Why do I feel there's a risk of navigation error?"
"You're still clear-headed, right?"
"Damn right I am! I'm a professional!" Ethan Dawn gritted his teeth:
"We've been in the fog for too long, and the successive disturbances have caused everyone an enormous amount of fear, on the brink of mental collapse, the emotions have a massive impact on the psyche."
He looked ahead.
"Fortunately, the outpost is just ahead."
This time... no incident occurred, and everyone dashed towards the outpost, gasping for air.
They were like people fished out of water, soaked in sweat.
Meanwhile, Su Qi slowly stopped his steps, his eyes fixing on the outpost's... most conspicuous emblem above.
He... looked somewhat puzzled.
"This emblem... seems familiar."
