175 Road One

In the woods.

Mist permeated the air like a thin veil, enveloping the sparse trees.

Plop.

Outside the camp, a glob of black spit shot out, precisely hitting a white rock on the ground.

Hiss.

The black spit slowly reacted with the rock, emitting white smoke. A small hole formed from the corrosion.

The hole deepened until the black spit was completely consumed, and then it stopped.

Amidst the crackling footsteps, Yu Hong, in a full suit, walked over and crouched to inspect it.

He extended his index finger, poking it into the hole, reaching roughly the second joint.

"Test over. The saliva of this black lizard has a strong corrosive effect on everything."

Yu Hong stood up, turning his head to look at the docile black lizard lying down.

Grown black lizards were about the size of a regular cat. Entirely black, they could be mistaken for a piece of dead wood if their eyes were closed.

Looking at the black lizard, Yu Hong mulled over what aspect to enhance.
