Chapter 1965 Attack Of The Poison Tide! (4)
The figure was dressed in lavish snakemen attire, a unique costume that fell somewhere between armor and a long gown, exuding an air of nobility and beauty. She wore a golden crown atop her head, adding a touch of majesty.
The crown was exceptionally unique, taking the form of a serpent as if multiple pythons converged to form it.
At the front, a peculiar-looking serpent opened its mouth, within which was embedded a gemstone.
"Your Majesty!"
The heaven-stage martial warriors from the snake race lowered their heads and bowed respectfully when they saw this lady.
"So this is the queen of the snake race!" Wang Teng was surprised. He gazed up at the palace with a surprised expression. His brow furrowed as he remarked, "Why does she seem somewhat familiar?"
"Cang Yu?!"
Wang Teng suddenly widened his eyes, and another figure emerged in his mind.
Even though Cang Yu was dressed very modestly while the snakemen queen appeared in luxurious attire, Wang Teng still detected a hint of familiarity from the back of both figures.
Moreover, both of them wore veils that covered most of their faces, leaving only a pair of mesmerizing eyes exposed.
Those eyes were equally captivating!
Not like those of an ordinary woman!
But it was precisely when he saw those eyes that Wang Teng's brow furrowed even deeper.
"They're different!"
"The eyes of the two individuals, the expressions are completely different!"
Wang Teng's speculations were instantly shattered. One's eyes couldn't deceive, and it was clear that the snakemen queen was not Cang Yu.
"I almost thought it was Cang Yu too," Round Ball said, "But there are some differences between the two."
"That's right." Wang Teng nodded.
At this moment, the snakemen queen's voice was heard. It echoed in the air.
"Activate the array!"
"Yes!" The heaven-stage martial warriors replied in unison.
As soon as she gave the command, they transformed into streaks of colorful light and rushed towards the surroundings of the Rui Snake City, evidently going to activate the formation.
Boom!
Before long, a luminous screen rose around the Rui Snake City, forming a greenish inverted-bowl-shaped light barrier that enveloped the entire city.
The light barrier was adorned with countless ancient runes, appearing highly intricate and mysterious, interweaving like chains of runic symbols to form the complete formation.
"This is… an ancient runic formation!" Wang Teng's eyes widened in surprise.
The snakemen gave him many surprises!
He hadn't expected to find an ancient runic formation inscribed within this city. It was a genuine and unexpected revelation.
Wang Teng scanned the array and saw attribute bubbles popping out.
Huh? There are attribute bubbles! Wang Teng exclaimed in his heart. He released his spiritual power and picked up the attribute bubbles.
Ancient Poison Runes*100
Ancient Poison Runes*150
Ancient Poison Runes*120
…
Ancient Poison Runes! It's a special Ancient Runes. It looks like I'm quite lucky. Wang Teng was astounded.
One by one, the attribute bubbles of the Ancient Poison Runes merged into Wang Teng's mind, turning into enlightenment.
In an instant, in his mind, strange greenish runes appeared one after another, exuding an eerie power that permeated his consciousness.
Wang Teng was enlightened. He instilled the Ancient Poison Runes into his memory.
At the same time, his Ancient Runes attribute started rising.
Ancient Runes: 2650/3000 (well-versed)
Wang Teng had gathered a considerable number of Ancient Poison Runes attribute bubbles this time, directly increasing his Ancient Runes attribute by over a thousand points. He was just a step away from breaking through the well-versed stage and reaching the specialized stage.
Not bad! Wang Teng was extremely satisfied.
For him, these attribute values were a free gain, a pleasant surprise.
In reality, compared to the increase in his Ancient Runes attribute, Wang Teng was more concerned about acquiring another type of ancient runic symbol.
Including the Ancient Lightning Runes and the Ancient Ice Runes, he had three special Ancient Runes now. This was a considerable achievement.
For a rune grandmaster, this kind of accomplishment would undoubtedly bring immense satisfaction.
Most rune grandmasters would consider it a great fortune to master one type of unique ancient runic symbol.
Now, Wang Teng had three, showcasing his profound foundation.
However, he didn't have much time to dwell on this. The poison tide in the distance was approaching relentlessly, the sky darkening completely, creating a feeling of being shrouded in perpetual darkness.
Boom!
Shortly after the array was activated, the horrifying poison tide had approached, crashing directly against the array.
Slap!
Sounds of impact resounded from the array, and Wang Teng looked up, feeling his scalp tingle.
Countless venomous creatures had landed on the formation, including ferocious venomous scorpions, giant poisonous centipedes the size of an arm, pustule-covered poisonous toads, and various unidentified toxic creatures. With just one glance, it was impossible to count them all.
In such a situation, it was no wonder that the snakemen, who regularly dealt with venomous creatures, found it extremely terrifying.
Sizzle…
Various venoms sprayed onto the formation, making a hissing sound and corroding it.
The formation's radiance continued to flicker, creating a sense of trepidation.
Some distance away, the queen of the snakemen race and the other heaven-stage martial warriors stared at the array above them grimly.
This formation was their only means of defense. In the past, it had repelled several poison tides.
This time, would it still be able to hold?
