Reborn As A Giant Scorpion: Evolution By Consumption Chapter 36
Advertisement
Alex walked into a long tunnel.
The smell of blood was even sharper here. If the hall were a slaughterhouse, this place would be full of corpses and a sea of blood.
The surroundings were black, dark and damp, and there was not a single bit of light.
At this moment, Alex heard a strange sound coming from the depths of the passage.
It sounded like a rumbling sound, like a whip slithering in the mucus. Alex's heart skipped a beat. That was not the sound of a human being.
Alex did not know what it was, but he continued to go deeper.
Suddenly, a thick object rolled over like lightning, accompanied by the sound of howling wind.
Alex stretched out a giant pincer and clamped it.
It was a round red tentacle with two bone-shaped claws at its end, trying to hook Alex.
"Huh?"
Alex tried to cut it off, but it did not break.
Interesting...
One had to know that his pincers could even break steel.
And the hardness of this mysterious creature's tentacle was beyond his expectations.
Alex exerted more strength and broke its tentacle. Suddenly, a shrill scream came from the depths. The cry was filled with pain and anger.
Its tentacle was retracted at lightning speed, leaving two tiny claws jumping on the ground.
"What kind of creature is this? This thing has no fur on its body and is covered with mucus. It should be something from the sea," Alex thought.
He used his scorpion feet to touch the two white claws that landed on the aisle.
After Alex cut off the two white bone claws, they still maintained their strong vitality and rolled on the ground.
By looking at the two claws, one could tell how strong the sea monster's vitality was.
Alex believed that if he put the claws back to the sea monster now, the claws would soon merge with the sea monster.

Of course, with the sea monster's biological power, the claws would grow back again.
"System, can I devour these two claws?"
Alex looked at the two claws on the ground. They were still struggling, which showed how strong their vitality was.
"Yes, there is rich evolutionary energy in them," the system said.
"But the appearance of this doesn't look good," Alex complained. He opened his mouth and bit on a claw that was still struggling.
Half a minute later, this claw gave Alex 100 evolution points.
"It's only two small claws, but the energy contained in them is equivalent to a swordfish that is five meters long and weighs 200 kilograms. If I devour this mysterious sea monster, how much evolution energy will I get?"
Alex was excited.
Just as he was thinking, he suddenly heard the roar of an engine coming from the surface of the sea. A ship was approaching the cruise ship.
...
Under the night sky, a small ship with a shabby appearance was sailing through the wind and waves.
A bald man stood on the deck. He carried a submachine gun on his shoulder. He put away the night vision device in his hand and walked into the cabin.
In the narrow cabin, there were dozens of men with different skin colors.
They were all mercenaries under Mose.
"Guys, we have found our target. The opportunity to make a fortune is here." The bald man, Mose, cheered and raised the submachine gun in his hand.
"Nice!"
The cabin was full of cheers from the mercenaries.
Mose did a shushing motion and said, "Guys, let me repeat. Our mission is to rob the rich on the cruise ship and finally blow it up."
A mercenary named Henry said, "Boss, I heard that our target is a five-star luxury cruise ship. Are we going to blow it up?"

Mose's face turned cold. "Why? Do you still want to drive it away? This ship must be blown up. Is there any problem?"
Mulligan raised his hand and said, "Boss, what if someone on the ship resists?"
"After working with me for so long, you still don't know what to do? If you encounter anyone who resists, use the weapons in your hands to teach them a lesson. We are mercenaries, not here to do charity, understand!"
Mose looked around the whole place, and intense pressure swept across the entire area.
Everyone lowered their heads, and then a man named Walter said, "Boss, such a big cruise ship... I think there must be women from various countries on it. It shouldn't be a problem if I want to play with a few of them, right?"
Mose said, "You can f*ck as many women as you want on the ship, but the basis is that you can't delay the important things. If you delay the important things, I will shoot you in the *ss."
"Thank you, Boss." Walter licked his dry lips.
"Everyone, recheck your equipment. If there are no problems, let's go now."
Five minutes later, the mercenaries led by Mose climbed up the deck of the cruise ship using a rope.
Walter looked at the pitch-black deck and asked curiously, "Why is there no light?"
"The power supply on the ship must be broken. The passengers should be in the hall on the first floor. What we need to do is to control all of them and make them hand over all their money."
...
On the upper deck, Alex stared coldly at these foreign mercenaries and mocked them in his heart.
Since they had set foot on this cruise ship, they would die here.
The mysterious sea monster on the cruise ship would welcome their arrival and devour them.
There was no doubt about that.
Putting aside the number of passengers on this ship, just looking at the bloodstains all over the hall and the bloody scene, he was sure that the monster would kill all the people who came.
Mose waved his hand, and the group of mercenaries rushed into the hall like wolves. He shouted, "Raise your hands, don't move."
But there was no one in the hall.
"Boss, something doesn't seem right. There's no one here," Mulligan said.
Moses took a look and frowned. "They might be in the other halls. Walter, Mulligan, you take four people and search the cruise ship's fourth, fifth, and sixth floors. Michael and I will take the others to search the first, second, and third floors. We will immediately control the crowd when we find them."
As he spoke, Mose sniffed and muttered to himself, "Huh? Why is there a bloody smell?"
As he said that, he turned on his flashlight. The light shone on the ground, and everyone was shocked. The floor was covered in blood.
"Could it be that someone else robbed this ship?" Morrigan asked, puzzled.
Mose said with a severe expression, "The situation is a little unexpected. Everyone, be careful when you move."
While the mercenaries led by Mose split into two groups to search, Alex was not idle. He wanted to find the hidden mysterious sea monster.
And devour it.
That was a giant treasure.
