Dustless blue star, sea dungeon.

The originally crowded underground city square was a little desolate at this time, with less than 20 people coming and going, which was completely different from the lively and long scene where thousands of people rubbed shoulders at every turn.

On the large electronic screen in the square, a notice message was hung at the top, which was displayed in red font: "The sea gathering place has entered a state of special combat readiness in an all-round way!"

There is no reason, no reason, just a sentence, but it has already revealed an atmosphere of solemnity.

After An Baichen teleported to the independent room he bought, he left the room and did not go to Chu Xinghan for the first time, but walked around the gathering place of the sea.

The truth is indeed the same as what Umeko said, there are fewer people in the sea gathering place.

An Baichen even saw many adventuring groups standing and packing their bags to leave the gathering place and take refuge in other places. Some of the stronger teams of adventurers took advantage of the opportunity to make a fortune and openly shouted in the streets.

"The last team! There are still three slots, each slot is at least 100,000 Karon credits or precious supplies of similar price! Our team is strong, there are thirty-three experienced adventurers, and we can definitely protect you to the nearest gathering place safely!"

"Last three days! Last three days! Six places, 100,000 caron credits!"

"A ten-person adventure team, two protection places, although we have few people, we only need 60,000 caron credits!"

As long as someone can afford to pay a high price, the adventurers can act as escorts, guarding a part of the crowd from the sea gathering place to the nearest gathering place for refuge.

Now people don't care about whether the adventure party is worth trusting, and the atmosphere of panic continues to spread in the dungeon, and people just want to flee here as soon as possible, and not stay to cook food for the monsters.

The official attitude of the sea gathering place may be tacit, at least Amberson did not see any of the sea gathering place guards stand up to prevent people from fleeing the gathering place.

No!

To be precise, the number of guards in the sea gathering place has decreased, and the patrol guards that used to be seen everywhere on the streets can only see one or two for a long time.

"It seems that there is something serious about it. ”

Ann Baichen muttered to himself, he came to the shopping street, and after some inquiry, found the merchant Edexcel.

"Mr. An, why are you back now?!"

Edexcel's face was full of surprise when he saw Amberson, and he opened his mouth to speak, as if to ask Amberson why he hadn't left the gathering place of the sea.

Now that the city is full of fugitives, how did An Baichen come back at this juncture?

"Can't I come back?"

An Baichen smiled and said, "Take me to Commander Chu." ”

"Good. ”

Eddes nodded very dryly, he knew that An Baichen had great powers, and his style of acting was not something that a small person like himself could guess.

With Edexcel leading the way, An Baichen found Chu Xinghan very smoothly, and he was in the laboratory.

When the guards took An Baichen to the inside of the laboratory after the announcement, Chu Xinghan was looking at a monster specimen in a daze, his expression was extremely solemn.

"Commander Chu, long time no see. ”

An Baichen took the initiative to speak, waking up Chu Xinghan, he hurriedly looked back at An Baichen, and squeezed out a smile: "Mr. An, long time no see." ”

"What were you thinking? ”

"Nothing. Chu Xinghan glanced at the monster specimen in front of him and sighed.

An Baichen followed his line of sight, this was a specimen of a monster contained in a glass jar, the glass jar was more than two meters high, and it was filled with a special research experiment liquid.

The monster in the glass jar was shaped like a bird, with a curved body, a flat and small head, and a pair of huge wings on its back were three times the size of its body, and there were no feathers on the wings, and it looked very ugly when it was bare.

An Baichen glanced at the monster specimen a few times, retracted his gaze and said, "I heard Meizi say that the sea gathering place is in trouble?"

"Yes. ”

Chu Xinghan didn't hide it, he nodded directly and said: "Three days ago, my father-in-law and I led a team to encircle and suppress the group of monsters near the gathering place, and the intelligence showed that only thirty-one monsters with the strength of the median were active, but we still prepared enough military strength to go all out to sweep away the threats around the gathering place." ”

"But this is a trap, there is a high-level monster hidden in this group of mid-level monsters!"

Chu Xinghan took a deep breath, although his tone was calm, but his eyes revealed sadness: "Our army was completely annihilated, only four people barely escaped back, and the others were all dead. ”

"How many people have you been there?"

"A professional army of 5,000 people, two heavy mechs, eleven large mechs, thirty-six light mechs, three hundred and twenty low-rank mutants, and thirty-seven median mutants. ”

Chu Xinghan sighed: "This is almost two-thirds of the combat power of the gathering place, if it is only used to destroy dozens of mid-level monsters, it is absolutely no problem, but no one expected that there would be high-level monsters ambushed in it." ”

"High-level monsters are so powerful?"

An Baichen raised his eyebrows and said, "A high-level monster can change the entire battle situation. ”

It was almost close to six thousand, and they died like this, and An Baichen was a little surprised.

Although the level of the dustless blue star has dropped by one level due to the invasion of monsters, the mecha system still exists, and the scientific and technological combat power is not weak, and the human biochemical power system awakened by mutants has also been developed.

On the whole, although the scale of the sea gathering place is small, its combat effectiveness is not too weak.

"Yes, high-level monsters are not only powerful, but also very intelligent, and unlike most monsters that do not have intelligence, high-level monsters have the same intelligence as humans. ”

"They know how to be flexible, they know how to ambush, and they are very vindictive. This time, the group of median monsters found near the gathering place was driven by this high-level monster in order to lure us into the bait. ”

Listening to Chu Xinghan's words, An Baichen was a little puzzled: "How did you provoke high-level monsters in a good manner?" I remember you told me before, based on the research of the Dustless Blue Star on the monsters at this stage, the Fallen Land thinks that it has completely conquered the Dustless Blue Star, so most of the monsters have evacuated the Dustless Blue Star, and most of the monsters left behind are cannon fodder, even if there are high-level monsters, they are not interested in human beings. ”

"Generally speaking, high-level monsters do not have much interest in human aggregates, they basically have their own fixed activity area, and they do not run around. ”

Chu Xinghan glanced at the specimen of the monster in the glass jar in a complicated way, and said softly: "It's strange, it's strange, we met a special monster that we had never seen before in Haiti City two months ago, and the military's search team died hundreds of people before they caught this guy, so we brought it back for experimental research, and finished it as a specimen." ”

"It's this monster. ”

Chu Xinghan pointed to the ugly monster in the glass jar.

An Baichen asked: "What is the direct connection between this and high-level monsters?"

Chu Xinghan hesitated for a moment, and said in a deep voice, "This is the child of that high-level monster. ”

“......”

An Baichen was speechless for a while, you killed other people's children and made the corpses into specimens, no wonder other people's high-level monsters came to the door to find you trouble.

However, in the dustless blue star, monsters and humans are mortal enemies, and it is not inappropriate for the sea to gather and make the corpses of monsters into specimens.

"In fact, if we had known the truth of the matter earlier, we would not have been so passive. ”

Chu Xinghan sighed and said, "If there is no loss of two-thirds of the combat power, with the defensive measures and means of the gathering place, it can barely resist the impact of high-level monsters. ”

"It's a pity ......" Chu Xinghan didn't continue, but An Baichen could understand what he meant, and with the only remaining combat power in the sea gathering place, he couldn't stop the attack of the high-level monsters

An Baichen said: "I remember that Meizi told me before that there are very few gathering places that can resist the attacks of high-level monsters. ”

"That was a long time ago, and now the strength of each gathering place of the Dustless Blue Star has basically stabilized, and it has its own hole cards and military strength, and the power of the entire gathering place can barely protect itself among high-level monsters. ”

Chu Xinghan sighed again, this was the first time An Baichen didn't know how many times he had heard him sigh.

was originally a heroic and handsome man, but now he is a decadent mess, and his heart is full of depression.

An Baichen also sighed, and then said bluntly: "It seems that the gathering place of the sea is coming to an end." ”
