If the Mutated Sickle was a higher-ranking servant among Sandworm Servants, then the Long-Legged Worm was the mud stuck to the soles of the lowest-ranking ones.
No god was weaker than the Long-Legged Worm.
They had no solid defense, no sharp weapons, no deadly venom, and no intelligence.
They only had a mouth, but even that was just the size of a finger—when biting a Sequence Ability User, it was like a light scrape.
Not only were Long-Legged Worms weak, but their intelligence was also low. When encountering danger, they didn't even know to avoid it.
The Sequence Ability User Management Bureau had even seriously considered whether to reduce or completely remove the God-Hunting Points awarded for killing Long-Legged Worms.
But in the end, they didn't implement it.
Because Long-Legged Worms were weak, they often attached themselves to stronger gods.
The appearance of a Long-Legged Worm signified the arrival of a formidable enemy.
Killing them carried significant risks.
Moreover, Long-Legged Worms were still gods. Ordinary people couldn't kill them.
Only Sequence Ability Users could slay them.
And since they were gods, they deserved respect.
So the Sequence Ability User Management Bureau still awarded one God-Hunting Point for killing a Long-Legged Worm, encouraging Sequence Ability Users to bravely hunt gods.
They just never expected someone like Qin Siyang to appear with such shameless tactics.
Using a single Sandworm Scale to lure in Sandworm Servants.
The Long-Legged Worms came running to pledge allegiance to their master and thus didn't team up with other powerful gods.
A massive swarm rushed toward the area exuding the scent of Sandworms.
Qin Siyang looked at the dark mass of Long-Legged Worms, grinning so wide his mouth was about to split open.
Not far away, Li Tianming was also stunned.
'This kid… his luck is insane!'
There were at least several hundred Long-Legged Worms in front of him, 'This kid is about to take-off to heavens.'
'Why the hell doesn't this kind of good fortune ever happen when I was out hunting gods?'
Li Tianming was even a little envious.
If he didn't need Qin Siyang's help—and if so many people hadn't seen them leaving together, making it inconvenient—he might have just killed Qin Siyang on the spot and taken the Long-Legged Worms for himself.
'Restraint, restraint. Li Tianming, you have more important things to do…'
Li Tianming took a deep breath, barely managing to suppress his jealousy.
Qin Siyang didn't just stand there waiting either—he immediately charged in, swinging his God-Hunting Dagger.
Most of these Long-Legged Worms were only half a meter long and about two fingers wide.
Their legs were thin and long, keeping them about twenty centimeters off the ground.
But in Qin Siyang's eyes, they were no different from bedbugs.
With a single swing of his dagger, he could cut down three to five at once.
Then, a thought suddenly struck Qin Siyang.
He knew that only Sequence Ability Users could kill gods.
But no one ever said he had to use a God-Hunting Dagger.
Looking at the Long-Legged Worms crawling on the ground, he couldn't help but wonder—could he stomp these pathetic gods to death?
He stomped down.
The Long-Legged Worm beneath his foot was flattened but instantly returned to its original shape and continued crawling.
Didn't work?
A realization dawned on him.
It was probably because he was wearing a thermal suit. His entire body was wrapped up, so even though he had awakened a Sequence, his mutated power couldn't transmit through the suit.
To test his theory, he unzipped his thermal suit and stomped down again.
Splat—
A burst of red fluid spurted from the crushed Long-Legged Worm, splashing onto Qin Siyang's foot.
The worm twitched twice and then stopped moving.
Dead.
Qin Siyang nodded, 'As expected, a Sequence Ability User's body is fundamentally different from an ordinary person's—it has undergone some kind of special mutation.'
Even without actively using his Sequence Ability, he could still kill gods.
Now that he understood, Qin Siyang didn't bother using the dagger anymore.
Swinging the dagger was too slow.
With this many worms, stomping was way faster.
Watching from afar, Li Tianming nodded in admiration.
Qin Siyang first tried stomping with the thermal suit on, then took it off to try again—Li Tianming saw it all.
'On the battlefield, encountering a weak enemy, he didn't just focus on racking up God-Hunting Points. Instead, he showed a spirit of curiosity and exploration.'
'This kid's got great potential for scientific research.'
'If I were still at the academy, I'd definitely take him as my student.'
'Sigh, I wonder if I'll ever get the chance to leave the outskirts of the Safe Zone in this lifetime.'
Li Tianming looked at Qin Siyang's back again.
'I fear that even if I die, [Ju'an Academy] will never awaken another Sequence Ability User. Qin Siyang, my future is in your hands.'
Qin Siyang took off his thermal suit, tossed it aside, and charged through the swarm of Long-Legged Worms.
But for some reason—maybe the cold—he hunched over as he ran, arms wrapped around himself, looking exactly like a refugee fleeing for his life.
At least, that's how it appeared to Li Tianming.
However, Qin Siyang's posture wasn't just because of the cold.
There was another reason—he needed to lower his head.
When he stomped on the Long-Legged Worms, their red fluid would be squeezed out and sprayed into the air.
Or more precisely—burst out.
Lowering his head was his way of receiving the gods' gift.
Through experience, he had figured out the trick.
If he pressed his heel diagonally onto a Long-Legged Worm's head and then ground down with his toe, the red fluid would be forced out of its tail—right into his mouth.
'The taste is kinda weird… Probably mixed with some nasty stuff.'
Qin Siyang glanced at the worm's rear end, feeling slightly uncomfortable.
But the rapid surge of power in his body quickly made him forget all about it.
'What can be more satisfying than getting stronger?'
He ran wildly through the swarm, trampling without restraint.
The corners of his mouth were stained with red fluid, stretched into a blissful smile.
Just as he was reveling in it—
Suddenly, a strange sensation coursed through his body.
Qin Siyang felt his strength, agility, and perception all undergo a qualitative leap.
At the same time, a transformation occurred in the Sequence information within his mind.
[Sequence "God Eater" levelled up]
[Consume gods to grow stronger]
[Current Sequence Level: Level 3, Crimson Knight]
[Skill: Blood Drink. Description: Killing gods also counts as consumption.]
[Skill: Violence. Description: For ten minutes, strength, agility, and physical durability triple. During this period, pain is completely nullified.]
[Skill: Duelist's Medal. Description: Upon killing a god, permanently increases all base stats (excluding skills) by 1%. Cooldown: one year.]
'All base stats permanently increase by 1%?'
Qin Siyang froze, his ecstatic grin barely contained—like he had just hit the jackpot.
'This Duelist's Medal… is insane'
