Inside the cold Pyramid palace, Lilith stopped her movements. A clear wolf howl echoed from a distance, reverberating between the stone walls.
There couldn't be wolves here, so it could only be the talent of another Hunter or Reincarnator.
Although the wolf howl possessed strong penetration and deterrent power, it didn't make Lilith feel any threat; instead, it stirred her hunting instinct.
Beneath her claws, a Xenomorph was struggling frantically. Its tail stinger repeatedly lashed at Lilith's body, but it could only leave faint scratches on her silver-white scales.
Aside from acidic blood, the attacks of these ordinary Xenomorphs simply couldn't break her defense.
A Xenomorph that couldn't break her defense posed no threat at all.
Lilith lowered her head, and after hesitating for a long while, she finally opened her massive maw and precisely bit down on the Xenomorph's head.
"Crunch!"
The sound of the carapace shattering was crisp and decisive. Corrosive blood flowed into Lilith's mouth, yet it didn't cause the slightest bit of corrosion.
The SSS-Level Talent [Gene Dominator] caused any devoured creature to lose its biological activity the moment it entered her mouth, turning it into pure energy and genes.
After confirming that devouring the Xenomorph was safe, Lilith quickly swallowed the lower half of the Xenomorph into her stomach as well.
"Devoured Xenomorph, obtained Xenomorph gene fragment +1, current Xenomorph gene integrity 0.2%."
"Only 0.2? In other words, I need to hunt 500 Xenomorphs to complete the Xenomorph gene."
Lilith used Ultrasonic Detection and thermal sensing to lock onto every Xenomorph. Her massive body moved through the palace; every Xenomorph that poked its head out was killed before it could even launch an attack on Lilith.
The Xenomorphs, who were supposed to be the Hunters, were instead being hunted by Lilith.
Lilith climbed up the walls and hung upside down from the vaulted ceiling. This was an area where Xenomorphs were accustomed to ambushing, but now it had become Lilith's hunting ground.
As soon as a Xenomorph poked its body out from a pipe, its head was pinned down by claws, dragged out of the passage, and shoved into her mouth.
More Xenomorphs swarmed from all directions. They had no fear, only the instinct to kill. Lilith moved rapidly between the walls, her every step firmly gripping the stone crevices.
The Xenomorphs' siege turned into a one-sided massacre. They couldn't keep up with Lilith's speed, couldn't break through her defense, and their only weapon—corrosive blood—was avoided by her.
When the last Xenomorph was whipped to death by Lilith's tail and devoured, she looked at the gene points she had obtained: only 5%.
Too slow. At this rate, it would be absolutely impossible to complete the Xenomorph gene within three days, and she would lose the greatest opportunity in this Movie Dungeon.
So now she had to find the Xenomorph nest. The Xenomorph Eggs that could hatch Facehuggers should also provide gene points.
Just as Lilith was preparing to move, a human figure appeared in her thermal vision.
It was a human holding a Tang Dao, leisurely walking toward this great hall. His steps were light and his posture relaxed, as if he were taking a stroll in his own backyard.
However, when he arrived inside the hall and his gaze met Lilith's, his footsteps froze.
"A Hunter?"
His voice carried obvious astonishment, as he struggled to keep it from trembling.
Lilith didn't respond, nor did she pay him any mind. She needed to hurry and find the Xenomorph nest.
If Xenomorph Eggs could really provide gene points, then she had to protect the Xenomorph Queen from being disturbed, allowing her to continue laying eggs.
Her massive body clung to the ten-meter-high stone wall. Her body, which had fused with the Brown Bear Gene after evolving, was a full circle bulkier than before.
Her shoulders were broad and her back thick with bulging muscles, yet her streamlined skeleton still maintained the coordination of a predator.
Silver-white scales covered her entire body, shimmering with a metallic luster under the dim light.
The human stood below, looking up at the behemoth that occupied the entire wall.
His fingers unconsciously tightened around the hilt of his blade, and his breathing became rapid.
Lilith turned around, her massive body flexibly slipping into a passage, her scales making a rustling sound against the stone wall.
Only when the sound faded into the distance did the Tang Blade Man slowly exhale, his entire body quickly relaxing.
At this moment, he was already drenched in sweat without even realizing it.
The Tang Blade Man paused and turned to one side as a Xenomorph lunged out from the shadows.
A flash of blade light later, the Xenomorph's head was separated from its body. Corrosive blood splashed onto the blade but was repelled by a special anti-corrosion coating and dripped to the ground.
After killing the Xenomorph, the Tang Blade Man's gaze remained fixed on the passage where Lilith had disappeared, his expression solemn.
It was hard for him to associate such a massive monster with a human. Even some beastification talents retained human characteristics, appearing as a hybrid of human and beast.
This was the first time he had seen a talent that directly turned someone into a monster like this.
Recalling her streamlined body and that massive size in his mind, it was purely born for slaughter.
"Her talent is very likely SSS-Level."
The Tang Blade Man took a deep breath. SSS-Level—there were only a handful in the entire Blue Star. Even in the Dragon Kingdom, there were currently only two, though that didn't rule out those kept hidden.
But for a great nation of 1.4 billion people to have only two SSS-Level Talent holders, one could imagine how rare it was to encounter one.
"According to what Lord Luna said, there are currently a total of ten SSS-Level Talent holders in the world. If she really is an SSS-Level Talent holder, which one could she be?"
Regardless of which one she was, as long as he could gather some information on her, it would be entirely beneficial for the Dragon Kingdom.
At least they would know there was such a potential powerhouse and have some information about her.
The image of that purple-eyed man surfaced in his mind, and the Tang Blade Man couldn't help but shudder.
Luna was the only SSS-Level Talent holder in the Dragon Kingdom with public information. He was also a Hunter, serving to deter unrest and stabilize the people's hearts.
But no one knew exactly how strong he was.
As a Hunter with an S-Level Talent, he had only met the man once, and it was that single meeting that remained fresh in his memory.
In terms of pressure, Luna felt like an emperor to him—an emperor ruling a nation, his entire being exuding an aura of looking down upon the world.
Many people speculated that his talent was likely related to the national fortune.
If Luna was an emperor, then the monster from before was more like a tyrant, her entire body exuding a fierce aura belonging to a beast.
It was as if she truly were a beast, a demon from hell.
Even though she hadn't attacked him, the Tang Blade Man could still clearly feel her strength. It was a power sufficient to easily crush him, a power comparable to Lord Luna's.
"It seems this game will be much more interesting than imagined."
The Tang Blade Man took a deep breath, the leisure in his eyes replaced by a touch of solemnity.
Now he could only hope that she wasn't the bloodthirsty type; otherwise, no creature in the entire Pyramid would be her match.
Even the Xenomorph Queen would be no exception.
This game was about surviving for three days from the Xenomorph Queen, but now it looked more like how the Xenomorph Queen was going to survive for three days in her hands.
