The SSS-rank Guide Doesn't Need Saving novel Chapter 137

Chapter 137: Dual Contaminated Zone (1)

Zeke walked over to where the new soldier had fallen with Ares. Cavendish and Galithe were already following behind them, trying their best to avoid stepping on monster corpses on the ground.

When they reached the spot he was pointing at, they instantly fell silent.

"Is this for real?" Galithe moved to stand close to the hole the size of a human. "Why... is there a contaminated zone in here?"

She had been a Guide for some time now. She’d seen a number of contaminated zones herself and knew the characteristics of a zone when she saw one. And that hole on the wall where only endless darkness could be seen was undoubtedly a contaminated zone!

"But how could this be possible?" Cavendish felt the same as the Guide from the Federation. "A contamination zone inside a contamination zone? Has there ever been a case like this in the past?"

"No, there isn’t."

As Zeke spoke, the expressions of the three veterans next to him grew much more solemn.

Ares also added, "I’ve seen hundreds of contaminated zones, and I’ve been inside one that moved constantly. But I’ve never heard of something like this."

"Cavendish, you do the scanning and reading of the outer ring of the zone," Zeke ordered the huge man.

Cavendish obediently followed his instructions and took the scanning devices from the two soldiers. He moved several steps closer to the unknown zone with extreme cautiousness. In one hand, he held the two devices. And in his other hand, he held an axe-like weapon. He had to do this to ensure that he’d be able to protect himself in case something suddenly popped out of that hole.

Zeke observed everything. No one said a word, already filled with tension. However, the more Cavendish got closer and closer to the unknown contaminated zone, Zeke sharply noticed that the devices in his subordinate’s hand were gradually increasing.

Beep, beep, beep!

The noise from the device made everyone’s muscles tense up.

This continued until the veteran soldier finally stopped just a few steps away from the zone, his hands stretched forward to take a more accurate reading of the zone.

Beep.

The scanning device finally stopped. The result should already show them how dangerous this zone was.

"What is it?" Ares asked.

While everyone waited, Cavendish did not turn around and get back to the team’s position. He stood frozen where he was, veins bulging into thick lines across his arms and neck. The grip he had on his weapon was so tight that they thought the handle would break under his strength.

"!!!"

Zeke narrowed his eyes. His power came out of his hand and quickly blocked in front of Cavendish. A hunched abyssal monster clad in a midnight-purple carapace and fringed with bioluminescent blue fins had come out of the hole.

If Zeke had not used his power, that thing could have taken half of Cavendish’s face in one fell swoop.

"Crrrck, crrukkk."
