Beginning Of Multiverse Saga-Chapter 330: Solution For Scaled Earthworm

"How could anything have happened to me with how well you protected me?" Alina replied, patting off the dirt from his body with care.

"Yeah," Sharky nodded at her.

"Alina, when was the last time you came here?" He asked, looking at her.

Alina didn’t know why he asked this question, but she didn’t care about it, she counted the days, and replied.

"The last time I came here was nearly a month ago."

"It means that bug appeared in the middle of the month," Sharky nodded, hearing her answer.

"So, how should this bug have appeared here? If it was a normal bug, we should have ignored it, but it was a Grandmaster level bug, so there must be some secret to its appearance."

"I think, some spatial rift has opened, and it must have crawled from it. Because in the mine sometimes the spatial rift opens. But that always brings some precious minerals, this bug must be the first one to appear here," Alina replied, the appearance of spatial rift was not so surprising.

"A spatial rift?" Sharky exclaimed in surprise. Did this weird bug come from another world?

To a certain degree, secret dungeons were also different worlds, but they were usually strange worlds that people from this world entered. It was rare to hear of beasts entering this world from one.

"But if the bug appeared from the Spatial rift. That makes things much more troublesome. If an endless swarm of those strange bugs rushes in, the people of this world will be in great danger," He said worriedly. This was Cloudcenter Territory, as well as her Frost Clan’s ore mines.

Alina explained, "The spatial rift isn’t too stable. Something as powerful as that creature coming through is already its limit. There shouldn’t be anything else of that scale that can cross over for some time. However, when that spatial rift stabilizes over time, it’ll be hard to say."

Sharky nodded hearing that reasoning. He looked towards Alina and said, "We should find a chance to locate that spatial rift."

Alina shared his thoughts, but she said with a frown, "But that Scaled Earthworm is too strong for us to deal with at all. We’ll just be throwing our lives away if we go there."

Sharky replied, "Did you forget that we have someone else?"

Alina’s eyes lit up. She asked, "Are you talking about Charlotte?" However, her expression quickly grew dark and she said, "But she’ll probably kill us first if she sees us."

"She won’t kill us," Sharky said with a confident expression. Although, he can’t talk about men. But in the matter of women, he has so much experience.

And he didn’t know what happened, but from the last fight against Charlotte, he found out that she didn’t want to kill him.

But she even felt pain, after harming her. He was also confident that now, if he really spends just a few days with her.

She will even cooperate in bed with him.

"Besides, since she’s the head of the orthodox faction, she has to ensure the safety of the common people. She won’t be able to ignore it if we share what we know with her."

"Alright." Alina approved of Sharky’s reasoning too. Even though Charlotte was a bit too fierce, Alina had no doubts regarding her character.

"Yeah," Sharky said with a smile. "Let’s look for Charlotte."

Suddenly, they sensed a terrifying undulation outside. It was much more intense than before, shaking the entire mine. The cave they were in also began to collapse.

Sharky quickly grabbed Alina’s hand and returned to the main mine. Dirt and rubble completely buried the place they had been in just a few moments after they rushed out of it.

Alina still felt lingering fear, wondering, "Could it be that Charlotte already met that strange bug?"

Sharky nodded and replied, "Judging from the activity, they seem to be fighting a fierce battle right now."

Alina suggested, "Why don’t we use this chance to look for that spatial rift while that monster isn’t here? Let’s see if there’s a chance to destroy it."

Sharky remained silent for a moment, saying, "Let’s check on that battle first."

Alina asked with a bit of hesitation, "Are you worried about her?"

Sharky couldn’t help but chuckle. He replied, "Are you jealous? Even if you are, don’t forget, she is Isabelle’s teacher. And also I just realized that we don’t know how to seal up that rift, and we’d probably need Charlotte’s strength to do it."

"That Scaled Earthworm is a bit too strong. If Charlotte can’t defeat it and ends up being eaten, it’ll become even harder for us. We might as well use this chance to see if we can be of any help."

"Why would you think I was jealous?" Alina asked with a strange expression. "Unless there’s actually something between you and Charlotte?"

In her experience, Charlotte had been a senior of the martial world, as well as one of the most powerful cultivators, for as long as she could remember. She even seemed to practically be the leader of the orthodox faction. She was known for being free from emotions. How could someone like that develop feelings for a young man, and her disciple’s man at that?

Even though Alina thought Sharky was outstanding, her thoughts couldn’t go in that direction no matter how great her imagination was.

"Because it was girls nature to become jealous, whenever they found their man was caring about another woman," Sharky replied to her, afterall he was an expert in the girl matters.

Hearing this, Alina blushed a little, she knew his reasoning was logical. But she didn’t reply to him. For her the first priority is Scaled Earthworm.

The entire mine would be destroyed if the Scaled Earthworm were left in it. At that point, forget about the Frost Clan, all the common people of Cloudcenter Territory would be massacred by it.

The two of them quickly hurried in the direction of the battle.

Meanwhile, Diana and Charlotte both gasped for breath.They no longer looked as graceful and elegant as before. Both of them were in a sorry state; even their hair was in complete disarray.

Charlotte exclaimed angrily, "This is all your fault, you crazy woman! Look! Now we’re both going to die here." There were spots of blood on her white dress. Her injuries definitely weren’t light.

On the other hand, Diana retorted with a foul expression, "It’s this stone cold woman here who insists on willfully slaughtering the innocent."

"I didn’t even kill Sharky!" Charlotte exclaimed, feeling somewhat regretful. If not for her pride keeping her from explaining things to her old rival, they wouldn’t have put each other in such a state, potentially letting the strange worm that had appeared take advantage of their current situation. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

"Hmph, I didn’t expect the glorious White Jade Sect’s master to still speak lies even in a moment of life and death," Diana shot back. She wasn’t convinced at all. As far as she knew, Charlotte was incredibly stubborn and had always wanted to ruin Sharky’s relationship with her disciple. It would be strange if she had chosen not to do anything using the situation with Alina as a pretext.

"Why would I lie to you at this point?" Charlotte replied, looking at the terrifying worm that towered before them with a wry smile of distress.

She couldn’t have expected to have ended up in such a situation after dominating this world for so many years. In truth, she didn’t actually fear death. However, it was a bit hard for her to accept being eaten by the disgusting worm before her.

Diana was stunned. She couldn’t help but curse, "Then why didn’t you tell me you didn’t kill him to begin with?!"

"It was you who insisted on fighting..." Charlotte said weakly, but she seemed to be losing confidence midway. She immediately stuck out her chest and straightened her back, exclaiming, "Why do I need to explain any of my actions to you?!" She was going to die soon anyway, so she might as well die with a bit of dignity.

Diana was dumbstruck. But she was from the Devil Sect, so there was no need to go through hell for the sake of appearances. She quickly said, "What about that incredible Ice Heart Pill of your White Jade Sect? I know you usually carry two on you. Hurry up and take them out! We’ll take one piece. With our strength, we might even be able to escape from this brute."

She was seriously injured, so not even the best medicines would allow her to recover quickly. Her medicines weren’t even as good as Charlotte’s; the Ice Heart Pill could quickly help them recover some strength. If the two of them worked together, they might be able to defeat this strange worm.

But Charlotte’s face turned red and she exclaimed, "I don’t have any!"

How could she tell her that she had given her precious medicines to Sharky? How would she even explain that? She would rather die than admit to that when she thought of Alina’s gossipy expression.

"How is that possible? We’ve fought for so many years. Do you think I don’t know what you do and don’t have?" Diana responded in a panic. She only thought Charlotte was unwilling to share medicine with her. "You’re not still trying to act tough even at this point, are you?"

Charlotte didn’t know how to explain herself. She said with a cold expression, "If I don’t have it, I don’t have it. There’s no reason."

Diana felt her teeth grow sore. She said through gritted teeth "Look at you... I don’t care if you don’t give me one, but at least take one yourself and get rid of this disgusting worm first!"

They were still grandmasters, and both of them were extremely powerful. Even though they had been ambushed while they were seriously injured, with all of their ultimate trump cards, they could still injure the worm.

But as time dragged on, the Scaled Earthworm began slowly raising its head. It was already starting to recover, and began another round of attacks.

By then, the two were already at their limit, unable to fight back at all. As such, Diana took a step back. Rather than being eaten by a disgusting worm, she would rather end up falling at Charlotte’s hand. But Charlotte only had a hesitant expression, and in the end, she didn’t move at all.

Diana was stupefied. She exclaimed, "You really don’t have them?"

Charlotte said angrily, "I already told you I didn’t have any several times!"

She was in a terrible mood. She had given her own life-saving medicine to Sharky, while that guy had probably already gone far away with that other woman. They must have been really happy together... How would he have any idea how great her sacrifice was?

Seeing Charlotte’s expression change several times, Diana asked curiously, "I’ve never heard of you getting injured in the past few years. Furthermore, with your cultivation, you wouldn’t need something like that... Did you actually end up giving them to some lover of yours?"

Charlotte felt as if she had been seen through completely. She quickly exclaimed, "No, I didn’t! Don’t say random things!"

Diana had only thrown out that remark for fun. After all, this old rival of hers was a stone cold woman. Charlotte wasn’t capable of feeling anything like emotions or love! And yet, judging from her flustered reaction, which made her sound just like her lovestruck disciple, Diana immediately thought, This woman really does have someone?
