Chapter 1110: Third Attribute!

Poison Mist was Jemengard’s ultimate move. The creatures that inhaled it looked no different from usual, but the internal damage would become very serious. Under the corrosion of the poison, they would continuously lose their strength until they died. Moreover, the stronger the creature, the shorter the duration of the process would be.

This was a poison that could turn a god into a mere mortal!

During the battle between Thor and Jemengard, he lost his life due to the excessive amount of poisonous fog. On the other hand, it had dragged the sperm whale on the second floor of the platform from the depths of the sea. Although still conscious, it was unable to fight back. It could only watch helplessly as it was reduced to dinner for a group of snakes.

From what he could see, Zhang Heng’s fate after inhaling the poisonous fog was similar to that of the sperm whale. He should be feeling the energy draining from his body very quickly, and he would feel weaker and weaker, just like… the current him.

At first, Jemengard didn’t take this matter to heart. This was because the poisonous fog was usually stored in the poison sac in its abdomen. It was released once a month and, this time, used on the sperm whale. It wasn’t because the sperm whale was challenging to deal with, but because it needed the poison fog to dissolve the whale’s body enough for the snakes to feed. At the same time, the lethal poison he injected was also an excellent tonic for the snakes, just like how catnip attracted cats.

Jemengard had already used up all of the poisonous mist from this month on the sperm whale, so it had been using its body to deal with Zhang Heng until it realized that the situation was turning against it; thus, it had no choice but to spit out more poisonous mist. However, this time, the toxic mist it had secreted had consumed quite a bit of its energy. After spitting it out, it immediately felt as if its body had been hollowed out.

Fortunately, Jermengad was mentally prepared for this. After killing its opponent, it had plenty of time to recuperate. However, the serpent did not expect to feel particularly fatigued this time. Immediately after, its senses seemed to have become dull.

This came as extremely strange for the black python. Being a sea monster, it had an extremely sturdy body and had never been sick since it was born. Thus, it did not know what it felt like to be ill and only felt that its current physical condition was a little strange.

It wanted to immediately return to the sea to rest. But the battle was not over yet. Although its human opponent should have already inhaled its poisonous fog and could not create any waves, it still felt that it should confirm the other party’s condition before leaving. Moreover, for this hateful human who dared to provoke it and leave a mark of shame on its body, Jemengard decided to swallow him in one gulp.

It would try to eat him as slowly as possible because only then would it give the other party more time to savor the impending death. With this thought in mind, it poked its snake head forward again. It searched for its target in the poisonous fog.

Even though the poisonous fog before its eyes had affected its vision, snakes were not known for their good eyesight. It also had sensors on its cheeks that could sense nearby heat changes. Hence, when it locked onto its target, it didn’t take long to locate Zhang Heng. However, it didn’t expect the target to be so close to it, the distance between them being less than ten meters.

And just as it was in a daze, the distance between the two became even closer.

The target was actually closing in on it? Was it a struggle before death?

Before Jemengard could figure out the situation, it heard a crisp grinding, similar to the sound of metal colliding. However, its sluggish mind was unable to figure out where the sound came from in the first place. It was only when it felt a sharp pain on its left cheek that it suddenly realized that a scale on its face had been cut off. Meanwhile, a guy wearing a strange mask had already stabbed his knife into the skin under the scale.

Zhang Heng did not hold back with his knife, the blade completely piercing into the monster’s flesh, leaving only the hilt outside. Furthermore, Zhang Heng had to stir it inside before he pulled out the knife.

Even with the snake’s size, the blade managed t severely injure it. It raised its head and rolled on the ground in pain. However, pain was pain. Even though the blade had injured the snake, it would’ve, at most, scratched the muscles under its skin.

With the snake’s physique, such a small injury shouldn’t cause it any trouble. At least, that was what it thought when it was first stabbed. At the same time, the fury of revenge quickly took it over, where even the fatigue and dullness from before seemed to have completely subsided. Jemengard began an even fiercer salvo of attacks on Zhang Heng. Even the surrounding sea creatures seemed to sense danger, all fleeing deeper into the sea.

Zhang Heng decisively switched back to his defensive stance and began to contend with the python before him.

After a while, Jemengard finally realized that something was wrong. After the anger of revenge subsided, the tiredness and sluggishness returned. It felt powerless, and the wound on its cheek showed no signs of improvement. Not only was it continuously bleeding, but the pain was getting more intense.

This confused Jemengard. Even though Zhang Heng had practically stabbed the knife into it, compared to its size, the wound on its left cheek was still so small that it could be ignored. At best, it was equivalent to an ordinary person having their finger cut open.

However, it was this tiny laceration that tormented the deep-sea monster. It could no longer ignore the pain on its cheek, especially when it shifted its gaze there discovered that the affected part had started to fester. The pus inside still spread in all directions.

And this was the masterpiece of the Hidden Scabbard.

After Zhang Heng received the knife, he also received the bartender’s appraisal of it. The sturdiness of the blade and the non-healing properties of the wound were all eye-catching. Zhang Heng, however, had most of his attention on the last one: the bonus effect it inflicted on mythical creatures.

With Zhang Heng’s current skills, it was almost impossible for ordinary people to threaten him. However, ever since he met the old man in the Tang suit, Zhang Heng realized that there were so many mythical creatures living in this world—in particular, many of the mythical creatures’ ordinary weapons had no effect on them at all. However, the appearance of the Hidden Scabbard made up for this last shortcoming.

The battle with Jemengard was also Zhang Heng’s first time using the Hidden Scabbard’s third attribute.

Not only was this knife sturdy and had a bleeding effect, but it was also a true god-slaying weapon!
