Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

Lin Wu's body moved smoothly through the underground sewers.

He was actually quite surprised by the sewers that ran underneath Tieba city. Lin Wu had seen the map charted by the system and could tell that the sewers extended to nearly every meter of the entire city.

The only difference was that some of the sewer channels were as small as a few inches wide while the central channels were big enough to contain his entire body.

'These are certainly not new.' Lin Wu thought to himself.

From the structure of the sewers Lin Wu could easily tell that they were far older than the buildings of the city. Meaning, they had existed since before the city was even established. This was a bit intriguing since there was no actual recored information about the sewers in the data that Lin Wu had gathered.

"System, how long ago were the sewers made?" Lin Wu asked.

~DING~

——

ANSWER: According to the system's scan, the sewers are built upon preexisting channels carved out by the underground streams and rivers. All of these are joined to the main rivers that originate from the central mountains.

The system estimates that these rivers and streams created these underground channels over twenty thousand years ago and due to a shift in the natural path of the source rivers, they stopped being fed new water.

They eventuality dried up and stayed buried for a while until Tieba City was established. The people of the city must have noticed the underground channels and turned them into a sewer system as the system has detected several manmade channels in it as well.

"I see… kinda like I expected. After all, there was no reason for them to dig out such a large channel." Lin Wu said, looking around him.

There were stone walls propping up the stone ceiling that continually dripped with water. A faint stench was spread in the entire area, but Lin Wu could easily block that off. Not to mention, when he had originally entered the area, he had aired it out with his wind spirit Qi and filled it with fresh air.

Along with that, the passive radiation from his body was basically sterilizing everything in his path and several meters around him as well.

'I'm basically doing a service for them by cleaning out the sewers!' Lin Wu thought to himself.

Having natural cave form sewers like this also meant that Lin Wu could modify them as he wanted and barely anyone would be able to notice. After all, not only could he dig but also replace the rocks himself if he didn't want someone to notice.

And it wasn't like the higher ups of the Tieba city hadn't missed on set up security for the sewers. After all, it was one of the obvious places of interest that could be used by people that might want to harm the city and its people.

The security measures were unless against Lin Wu thought. The formations that he came across were modified to ignore them, while other intentional dangerous such as the natural beasts that lived in the sewers were even more easy to deal with for Lin Wu.

Simply with his aura as a Beast King, he could force the beasts into submission. The sewer beasts all ran away when Lin Wu approached an area they were in and if they couldn't leave, they would simply stay in place and cower until he left.

Lin Wu didn't care for them either, much less harm them. Why would he spend effort in sometime that couldn't bother him even if they tried.

Thus, it all became very easy for him and the sewers became his temporary base.

,m With his new innate skills, Lin Wu could keep his body in one place while letting his tentacles extend everywhere. Granted, the range was still quite less than his spirit sense. But the advantage was also obvious as Lin Wu could morph his tentacles to have different organs like eyes and ears and mouth.

That was also how he had communicated with Feng just a while ago. He had simply converted one of his tentacles into a temporary head.

Another benefit of it was that his identity was basically unknown, because even if someone saw the tentacles and heads, they would essentially be unable to tell what beast it was in reality.

They would assume a beast that looked entirely different and of a much smaller size.

"I'm just loving this new bloodline more and more~" Lin Wu said to himself joyfully as he continued onwards.

The main channel of the sewer that Lin Wu was in right now, extended all the way through the slums and out into a lake outside the city. Thus, he had no issues in following behind Feng who was taking him to some place.

About fifteen minutes later, the boy finally entered the slums and ran though the complicated routes before arriving at a derelict building that looked like it was an old warehouse converted into a slaughter house.

There were dark stains on the ground as well as rotting matter lying around. There was a stench of blood spread in the building as well, but it felt old and moldy.

It was obvious that this was not a building that the average person would want to step in. And yet, a weak boy like Feng had come here.

'Is he mistaken or is there something more here?' Lin Wu wondered.

To Lin Wu, even if Feng had brought him to the slums, there were still better places to go to rather than a highly suspicious place like this building.

"There are certainly a lot of dead bodies rotting here… Seems like someone or several people use this as a dumping place." Lin Wu muttered to himself.

He continued observing Feng with his spirit sense and saw the boy stop near the wall of the highly suspicious derelict building. He looked to be a bit nervous and hid near some broken boxes when someone passed from nearby.
