Chapter 170 The Fear of Monsters (Part 2)

After a while.

"This is it."

Bang!

A dull crash in a dark corridor.

With the steely fist of the [Destroyer], there was a "bang" sound, and a hole the size of a watermelon was blasted out of the wall by the fist cannon.

A bright light shot out from the dark room, and everyone who had not seen light for a long time was stunned.

"Secret room?"

Everyone looked inside along the watermelon-sized holes in the wall.

On the stone platform in the small room, a guy wearing an X mask, with milky white rubber gloves on his hands, was dissecting another guy wearing an X mask.

Various internal organs are filled with glassware of different sizes.

The wand's flame illuminated the room. The man holding the scalpel slowly raised his face and looked at the people outside the wall in amazement. It was not difficult to see the excitement and enthusiasm in his eyes that had not completely dissipated.

the other side.

The man who was being dissected wearing an X mask on the test table seemed to be still alive, and everyone could even clearly see his frightened and pleading eyes.

"X!"

Everyone naturally regarded the victim as Lei Luo.

The room fell into darkness again.

Squeak.

There was a sound of the wooden door opening, and when the fire light came on again, Lei Luo raised his wand and frowned: "There is a door here, why not..."

boom!

Lei Luo was only halfway through his words when his pupils suddenly shrank.

He only had time to open the 1024 Night Guardian Shield when his body was struck by an astonishing force with a "bang" sound. He leaned back and slid a few meters away before stopping.

The flame dragon's roaring wand stood in front of him, and Lei Luo held the bald man firmly against his head.

On the diamond-like 1024 Night Guardian Shield, several cracks spread along the fist of [Destroyer] Kui.

It looked like he couldn't bear the second punch anymore.

"Stop!"

"stop!"

But it was [Glacier Roar] Bai Qi, and [Run Feng] from the Gu Yue family who shouted one after another.

[Destroyer] Kui raised his bald eyebrows and laughed.

"Huh? Haha, so you are really X? I thought that guy was X."

Kui pointed at the dissected guy on the stone steps in the darkened room again.

Lei Luo, whose breath was fluctuating, suddenly thought of something.

"Oops!"

Under everyone's gaze, Lei Luo stood up hurriedly and ran towards the wooden door. When everyone looked at the stone steps in the room, there were only a few ropes left.

The room was empty.

Huh?

Everyone was stunned. They walked into the room through the wooden door and looked left and right, but found nothing.

"Run away? Impossible!"

Everyone frowned.

While Lei Luo looked annoyed, he seemed to notice something again and picked up the glassware that previously contained the specimen's organs.

I saw that the organs in the glass vessel had turned into a black mist, and they were gathering in the corner of the vessel, as if they wanted to break through the shackles of the vessel and go somewhere.

Lei Luo tried to turn around.

Like a compass, the black smoke reached the other corner of the glass vessel. Then under Lei Luo's gaze, the black smoke trapped in the glass vessel began to change directions in a consistent manner.

"Could it be that……"

Under the X mask, Lei Luo took a deep breath and looked at everyone.

"Sorry, I have to continue to study that thing here. This specimen is really strange. I'm afraid it will be difficult to find it outside, so I can't go to the fourth floor with you."

When everyone heard this, their expressions were a little strange.

The demons on the side even looked at this human wearing a strange mask like a monster.

"That thing is very dangerous!"

Captain Moqiu couldn't help but exclaimed.

Lei Luo said: "But it is a creature that can be dissected after all."

Not for a while.

The exploration team said goodbye to Lei Luo and walked up, and the area became quiet again.

Lei Luo held the glassware and looked at the direction where the black mist gathered inside. He thought deeply and then revealed a terrifying smile.

"Kid, didn't you ask me to play with you? Do you want to play hide-and-seek now? Then you have to hide, I'm coming to find you, hehehehehe..."

The entrance from the second underground floor to the first floor.

Everyone was excited when they heard the weird excited laughter coming from the second underground floor.

Compared to that weird thing, this X seems to be more like a terrifying monster.

"This guy……"

[Glacier Roar] Bai Qi turned around silently, glanced at the dark second underground floor, and then looked at [Destroyer] Kui aside.

"It's not yet time to seize the treasure on the fifth floor, and your actions are too obvious."

Kui looked at Bai Qi, looking indifferent.

"The weak should stay where they belong, hehe, but now it seems that this X is not as simple as it seems on the surface. He is already qualified enough to go to the fifth floor."

the other side.

After overcoming the psychological fear and understanding the habits of this strange creature, in the eyes of evolutionary esotericists, it, like all specimens, is just a guinea pig on the dissecting table waiting to be explored and discovered to understand the secrets of evolution.

Lei Luo held up the spar lamp and followed the direction of the specimen container in the second underground space, looking for traces of that thing.

It can become invisible in the dark and become some form of invisible energy like a spiritual body.

But under the light, it was a physical thing.

"Hey, hey, hey, kid, brother is here, where are you hiding?"

The shadow of the crystal light slowly lengthened.

Lei Luo walked forward slowly, like those shivering children hiding in the corner of the room in the horror scenes, feeling the perverted weirdos getting closer and closer outside.

The front is already the end of the second floor.

Lei Luo saw a huge energy hub device. Although it was worthy of Lei Luo's careful study, this half-dissected weird creature was more important.

Click.

Lei Luo followed the directions of the specimens in the glass container and opened the dusty wooden door with a click.

A shivering mushroom-shaped creature was hiding in the corner, its tentacles were constantly squirming, looking at Lei Luo in horror.

"No, don't come over..."

A little girl screams.

"Don't come over? Hey hey hey hey, didn't you just keep clamoring for me to play with you? Now my brother is here to play games with you and stops playing in the middle of the game? This is very rude!"

Lei Luo kept turning the lights off and on, and grabbed this thing.

"Ah! Let me go!!!! Wuwuwuwu..."

In the darkness, it screamed.

Lei Luo turned on the light again.

"Are you going to play role-playing this time? Become a Gulan fairy? That's great! My brother likes this kind of gameplay, what else will you change?"

After changing his appearance, Lei Luo became more interested.

Although it is just an imitation, the Gulan people are now extinct. In the process of understanding the nature of this creature, you can also understand the basic physiological structure of the Gulan people, which will kill two birds with one stone.

"Didn't you ask my brother if you were cute before? Hehe, you are so cute on the dissecting table now. With these soft tentacles, I can't bear to give you an anesthetic. You should be able to hold on, right?"

There was a fierce struggle and screams.

Under the flickering light, the nightmarish anatomy experiment scene continued in the room.

Two hourglass hours later.

Under the bright crystal light, Lei Luo slowly closed the "Starry Sky Academic" notebook.

This notebook is exactly the Ice Firebird notebook that Ripple once gave to Lei Luo. However, as Lei Luo accumulated knowledge, this notebook was officially named "Starry Sky Academic" by Lei Luo. It belongs to Lei Luo's personal notes as a personal notebook. The knowledge inheritance and accumulation of famous scholars.

Lei Luo held the quill, returned to seriousness, lowered his head and thought.

"According to what the ginseng elf said, the Gulan Fairy is a mixture of animals and plants. Generally speaking, it is similar to a piranha? Judging from the basic physiological structure of the Gulan Fairy simulated by this guy, the plant The properties of animals are greater than those of animals."

After a pause, Lei Luo's eyes looked at the black air mass in the vessel under the mask.

"Essentially, this thing should be a mutation of the black tentacles. Ordinary black tentacles can repair external combat weapons and restore the basic structure of the Demon Eye Pyramid. Their energy is composed of a layer of blood-eye trees and dead ones. Provided by biological flesh-and-blood organisms, this is most likely a unique thing developed by the Gulan Fairies during their long-term war with the Blood Evolution, combining the capabilities of both parties."

"As for this specimen, the energy is provided by the three-layer energy hub. While it obtains powerful power, its range of activities is also greatly restricted."

"Light represents the power of the sun. During this period, it can absorb the energy of the core hub of the pyramid and continue to grow. As long as the light lasts for more than twenty seconds, it will kill dozens of level 0 and level 1 demon hills with the terrifying energy radiation in the pyramid. It is just a piece of cake for it. Darkness represents the power of the moon. It can transform into a supernatural form of spiritual power, maintaining a long-term basic consciousness with extremely low energy consumption, lasting for thousands of years, until the explorers turn on the lights to wake it up. .”

"Well, in its mental state, it can also absorb the fear of living things. It can also control and transform the buildings here that are radiated by the energy hub in an extremely short time. It was precisely because of this ability that I was pulled away before."

"So, the five seconds after darkness and the five seconds before light are the stages in which this thing maintains its physical form and can be damaged, but also has no power. Its upper limit of strength comes from the energy hub absorbed by the core. "

Like those black tentacles.

Seemingly immortal, even if it is cut into fine pieces by a scalpel and turned into black mist, it will be restored as long as it comes into contact with the moonlight of the Matrix Altar.

The control core of those ordinary black tentacles should be at the source point of the matrix altar, somewhere on the fifth floor of the pyramid, and transported to any corner inside the pyramid through the matrix altar, so their scope of activity is the entire pyramid.

And this thing...

Let’s temporarily name it ‘Xiao Hei’, paired with the grass and ginseng elf ‘Xiao Bai’. They are both products of the ancient Oran civilization’s attempt to study the power of the sun and the moon.

Xiao Hei's energy core is at the energy hub on the third floor.

The Gulan civilization designed it to be the guardian of the energy hub, so it can only move within an extremely limited range, and the upper limit of its power comes from the supply of the energy hub.

According to the energy limit of this Magic Eye Pyramid.

The speed at which Xiao Hei absorbs power will cross the 0-level biological stage in 5 seconds. In about one minute, it is probably enough to reach the strength of ancient-level creatures. It will not return to the low-energy-consuming moon again until the light source is extinguished. The power mode is like the deep sleep of ancient creatures.

Although based on the current lack of energy in the Magic Eye Pyramid, the power limit of this thing should be far from reaching the ancient biological level, but as long as it reaches the level 2 biological level, it is enough to make the explorers despair.

"What an interesting design! Even after tens of thousands of years have passed, I can still feel the creative wisdom of those Gulan fairies. It is a pity that such a great civilization has been lost in history."

Lei Luo was quite sorry.

"Now that I know its properties, as long as it can provide enough energy source, I can move this thing to my own private laboratory in the future. It will be an excellent guardian!"

Thinking of this, Lei Luo no longer hesitated, stood up and walked towards the energy hub that the exploration team had closed before.
