Chapter 426
The four to five-meter tall deformed fusion monster that weighed a few tons collapsed with a loud bang.
Imagine the sight of several tons of arms, eyes, mouth, and internal organs falling out like a garbage truck.
As soon as the macaw finished shooting, it found a corner, took off its gas mask, and vomited.
Even the three players, who had seen many big scenes, could not suppress their physiological reactions. One by one, they stood in a row behind the macaw, lowered their heads, and vomited.
After the Vajra was done with the beating, he stood on the spot and started to recite the Heart Sutra. The sound waves of the Golden glow spread out and landed on the surface of the broken limbs.
The rotten limbs burst into dark red flames, which lasted for more than ten seconds before everything calmed down.
Several tons of wreckage were swept away, leaving only some yellow pus and wrinkled parts that seemed to be connected to different organ tissues.
“King Kong,” link couldn’t help but ask,”your Heart Sutra should have been able to incinerate all of these body parts. Why is there such a big lump left?”
King Kong looked at the remaining skin-like tissue on the ground and scratched his head.”The parts that belong to the aura of resentment can be expiated. The parts that can not be expiated should not belong to the living.”
Link’s brows gradually relaxed. He seemed to have thought of something and buried his head in the abandoned laboratory.
a moment later, he took out a glass petri dish, walked forward, and cut a piece with a flash dagger, then sealed it.
After the death of the mutated fusion monster, its blood, flesh, and various tissues were all scattered like a pool of mud.
In addition, during the battle, link had seen that the flesh and blood tissues were all connected by connective tissues similar to those on the ground. He made a bold guess that the deformed Fusion Monsters were very likely connected by these cells.
if he were to collect some tissues and cells now and bring them back for special research, he might be able to obtain unexpected gains.
“How’s your collection going?” Link looked at the line of players who were vomiting by the wall.
The three of them supported themselves against the wall with one hand and made an OK gesture with the other.
Since they had filled up the space with enough Katz crystals, link waved his hand and led the players to retreat.
one of the fused monsters was already enough. if more monsters came after them, link could still run, but the others might not. Of course, the most important reason was that link was now the highest leader of the sand City. If he was forced to fight these monsters in close combat later and his body was stained with all kinds of mucus, he would lose face if these players took screenshots of him.
Wasn’t it great that the monsters were turned into ashes in a flash?
Everyone retreated and returned to where they came from.
Not long after they left, a strange-looking creature appeared silently in the quiet experimental area. It crawled on the ground, and its soft tentacles with suction cups picked up the ” connective tissue ” on the ground and stuffed it into its mouth. After a delicious meal, he saw a row of footprints on the dust-covered ground. He wriggled his body and followed them.
The leaping spiders in the abyss, the underground base, had learned their lesson from King Kong. They did not dare to stir up trouble again.
Troy turned off the surveillance camera and began to make preparations to leave.
When link led his team back to the hub control room, John and the other players were already waiting.
There were no signs of battle on them, so it seemed that the trip to the logistics area had been unusually smooth.
Link counted the Katz crystals in the players ‘hands. There were a total of 100 kilograms. He threw all of them into Fu’s bag, along with the sealed petri dish he had collected in the experimental area.
The Prophet and panamela were the last to return, covered in dust and dirt. “The retreat route has been cleared!”
Everything was ready, and they could retreat at any time.
100 kilograms of Katz crystals were enough for the shadu military and players to use for a while.
he didn’t ask fu to put on more of an act because he had a follow-up plan in mind.
Link stood in front of the controller and said to Troy, ” “We’re all ready now. We’re just waiting for you.”
Troy was extremely excited. After living alone in the underground base like a ghost for 42 years, he finally had the chance to go out and see the new wasteland world in the future.
But before that, he still had some things to say.
“Before I leave, I need to activate all the access to the retreat route. You can take a look at the planned route.”
A topographic map of the underground base appeared on the computer screen, with a route starting from the hub control room to the hidden exit of the underground base.
Immediately after, all the checkpoints on the retreat route were opened, and the access was lifted.
” there will be some monsters blocking the way on this road, but they shouldn’t be very strong. according to the combat power of the team configuration, they can easily break through. ”
” i’ll now start to withdraw all of my consciousness. when my stream of consciousness condenses into a physical body, i’ll completely lose control of the underground base. i’ll be helpless in any situation that i encounter next. ”
Link’s expression did not change. The monsters in the death quagmire were distributed in levels. From the weakest Level-10 Oozeling in the forest to the giant radioactive spiders in the tens, the jumping spiders in the underground base, and other monsters, the power distribution was increasing layer by layer. the monsters ‘levels were within link’s tolerance.
“now, please step back.”
Troy began to retract his consciousness that had spread all over the underground base. At the same time, the entire console was filled with electric currents.
All kinds of instruments exploded, and electric arcs surged back and forth.
the lightning gathered together and gradually formed the shape of a “human.”
At the same time, there was a layer of light blue Soul light around the lightning, as well as code symbols that represented data, flowing in the lightning.
The outline of a head, four limbs, and a body was formed, and finally, a pair of feet could be vaguely seen.
Troy was suspended on the console, and the chaotic and disorderly electric light was gradually smoothened like cat hair, fitting into the outline of his body and stabilizing.
I can’t stay in a zero-medium state for a long time in this form. even Troy’s voice had an extremely strong electric sound, and it could even stir up electric currents.
link patted the dumbfounded fu’s shoulder.”Fu, it’s your turn.”
Fu came to a sudden realization and immediately summoned the spirit Vulture Palace.
As the ” Palace door ” opened, Troy turned into a flash of lightning and entered the spirit Vulture Palace.
an environment that was suitable for souls to be stored for a long time was naturally also suitable for data flow of consciousness.
The feeling of constantly overdrawing his “life force” in the outside world had disappeared. Although the Vulture Palace was small, it had a restraining effect on the soul, making it more solid, and naturally giving him a sense of security.
“Do you feel any discomfort?” fu asked.
the electric current in troy’s heart was beating wildly, and every beat made the current flow through the whole body. it was very similar to the structure of the blood vessels and capillaries in the human body.
I have never had such a carefree and comfortable feeling. I am very satisfied! Troy’s voice was trembling.
Fu tilted her head and explained to the nine-striped Dragon, another ‘guest’ of the Ling Vulture Palace, ” it’s a data stream of consciousness. You can understand it as an electronic soul. He’ll stay here for a while.
the nine-patterned dragon only nodded slightly, but it felt another aura that shouted in the spirit vulture palace, ” “Brother Vajra, after I come out of the spirit Vulture Palace, let’s sit down and discuss Dao.”
“Definitely!” Vajra formed a Buddha seal with his hands.
link’s eyes brightened. he didn’t expect the nine-striped dragon to stay in the vulture palace and think about life. he’d actually become a buddhist too. he even appreciated vajra. interesting. When the nine-patterned Dragon was released in the future, he could consider forming a bond with the Vajra. It would definitely be very interesting.
“then you stay here, we’re ready to go.” Fu closed the Ling Vulture Palace, and with a wave of his hand, the carved ancient coffin, which was emitting a faint bronze aura, disappeared.
successfully storing the data stream of consciousness, link was elated, but his face did not show it. “let’s retreat!”
Now that he had kept all the Kaz crystals in AFU’s strengthening bag, link would leave the rest of the retreat to the seven players. This was also a chance for them to gain experience.
If they killed more monsters and gained more exp now, they would be able to get less exp when they completed the quest later.
When it came to living a frugal life, link was quite good at it.
After all, he was a mud doll who was used to living a hard life.
Mo fa!
Along the way, there was the sound of gunfire. Whenever the players couldn’t hold on, link would send out invisible killer bees and illusion vines to help.
With link and John, the two top NPCs on wasteland planet, at the back, the seven players also used their primal power. Whoever could get the monsters and deal more damage would get more experience. All of them were red-eyed with killing intent.
Towards the end, they didn’t even have the time to notice what they were killing.
Link, John, and Fu, who were at the back of the group, saw everything clearly.
Half-meter long radioactive cockroaches, berserk moths, squid-like mollusk creatures
At the center of the lower hub, the Iron Bridge.
The flashlight shone above their heads, and they could clearly see that King Kong had used the Buddha’s Palm’s [ Buddha’s asking Indigo silk ] to burn thousands of jumping spiders into ashes. The exploded matter corroded several layers of the Iron Bridge, leaving behind holes.
alright, all we need to do now is to enter this tunnel and walk all the way to the end to leave the underground base.
The players ‘faces were already filled with bright smiles. For them, the whole mission was over. After leaving the death quagmire, he would take a helicopter back to weeping Valley and receive his reward.
As link gestured for them to move forward, the players lined up and continued to advance.
The macaw had even started to interview Ah Fu about the various ” strange things ” that happened after they entered the underground base. The macaw planned to make this expedition into two episodes, and the name would be ” approaching science. The first episode focused on Fu’s strange encounters, and the second episode would use this as an entry point to explain the history of the underground base and unravel it. It would definitely cause a sensation.
just as everyone relaxed and left, a tentacle suddenly reached out from the dark abyss and hooked link’s ankle. a powerful force pulled link into the abyss.
the strange thing appeared so silently that even link and john didn’t notice it.
When link was dragged back, John Shone his flashlight at him.
Link’s calf was wrapped tightly by a large, smooth, dark purple tentacle covered in suction cups. The beam of light from the flashlight moved along the tentacle, and soon, the tip of the iceberg was revealed.
A huge monster cuttlefish extended its remaining tentacles toward the group, and its Pearl-like eyes stared at the group. The head that was revealed was already three to four meters tall. The rest of the head was below the abyss hub, making it difficult to see the whole picture.
“Quickly run!” Link ordered immediately. If such a terrifying monster followed them, it could cause the tunnel to collapse. It would be difficult for them to leave then!
Link immediately pulled out two daggers.
Flash dagger left his hand and was thrown at John.
With the throat cutter in his hand, Qi was attached to the blade. Under the illumination of the flashlight, the blade was slashed into a crescent moon.
He cut off the squid tentacle that was binding his calf.
In the next second, he disappeared on the spot and suddenly appeared beside John.
Link glanced back at the giant squid and cast a detect spell.
[ demonized giant seal ]
[ race: mutated soft body ]
[ level: level 35+(leader) ]

Energy: 400/400

After reading the introduction, Link’s guard was raised.
John had already led the players into the tunnel. Link stared at the occultic chapter’s eyes, retreating as he confronted it.
In addition to the normal radiation mutation and accidental chemical reactions, this thing had also strengthened his spiritual power after strengthening his body. This reminded link of the old gods who claimed to be the Great Old Ones on some other planets in the universe. The evolution direction of this demonized giant cuttlefish was obviously a bit fishy.
After a moment of confrontation, the octopuses were afraid of Link’s attack and gradually retracted their tentacles. The huge head slowly sank under the Iron Bridge and returned to darkness.
The tentacle wrapped around Link’s calf was still active.
Link used his dagger to pry open each suction cup and finally managed to pull the three-foot-long tentacle off its leg.
The players hiding in the tunnel were still in shock. Fu and macaw’s expressions of shock could be seen even through the gas masks.
“boss, you scared me to death just now. fortunately, you’re fine.” Fu’s eyes were red and swollen.
the macaw at the side also sighed and agreed, ” it was really close. If your reaction was any slower just now, you would have been dragged down. I’m afraid you would have to eat a banquet when you go back.
Link froze when he heard this. This was really … Filial.
“It’s just an interlude, don’t panic. Fu, pack this thing for me. ”
Link kept his calm and threw the tentacle into Fu’s strengthening bag.
However, link and John could see the doubt and uneasiness in each other’s eyes.
This monster was something!
he was actually able to escape the perception of two top experts at the same time.
