The third layer of the extraterritorial battlefield is really dangerous.

Matthew used the method of doppelganger exploration to find a way out of the third → fourth layers, but for more than half a month, not only did he not find it, but also damaged two clones.

Being in the Star Sea Star Field, Matthew can control 1000 clones at the same time.

As long as he has enough leisure, it is not impossible for 1000 clones to do 1000 different things.

Extraterritorial battlefields, no.

It stands to reason that with the strength of Matthew's Super Saint Lord, he is invincible if he doesn't meet the Saint King.

As a result, the first doppelganger explored the road for a day, and the main body was infected with the lethal [Curse of Weakness].

Matthew also has a lot of idle skill points, so the curse isn't scary.

The point is that Matthew still hadn't thought about how the doppelganger had been contaminated with the curse, even if he used his time ability to find it in the past.

As a result, Matthew gave up on the idea of sending a second doppelganger, and the first doppelganger died mysteriously.

……

In the underground shelter, Matthew already has a new home of his own.

It is not far from the home of Winnington, the king of the female realm, and not far from the triangular house of the old woman, the leader of the refuge.

Matthew had planned to take Nilubell out of Sky City, but unfortunately it was not clear who was crazy and who was normal between the two groups of people on the ground and couldn't take the risk.

It doesn't matter, Matthew can go back to Sky City for the night.

Little Nilubell has had a lot of tempers lately, especially when it comes to the second Demonic Form.

Matthew coaxed and coaxed, coaxed and coaxed, and finally His Majesty finally accepted his fate.

After all...... Compared to the black beast, night work, etc., Matthew didn't treat her too much.

......

House of the Chief.

Matthew crossed Erlang's legs and nibbled on the fruit, "Old woman, I've been looking for more than half a month, and I'm about to find the exit, I advise you to tell me what you know quickly; The more I find out, the less valuable the things in your hands will be, don't you still want me to take some people away, and I can't help you with your attitude. ”

On the other side, the black-faced old woman was drinking a cup of tea alone, not in a hurry.

Matthew had come to the vault for the sixth time to ask for clues to the "exit".

Since he is still asking, it means that no valuable clues have been found.

However, Matthew does not demonstrate, but instead shows a posture of loving to tell but not to tell.

He didn't do anything to the old woman, out of fear of the third layer of the extraterritorial battlefield.

However, Master Matthew's patience is limited, today is the second day of the third doppelganger's dispatch, and a week later, if there is no result, or if the third doppelganger dies again for no reason, it is no wonder that he is ruthless.

Put down the teacup.

The black-faced old leader gave Matthew a deep look and said, "You're really not interested in staying here for a while?" ”

Matthew said, "There must be no, you can understand my identity without me telling you, where do you have the spare time to stay in your refugee camp." ”

The black-faced old woman, "I can marry Winnington to you." ”

Matthew snorted, "I think I'll be short of women?" I'm not uncommon with that kind of stinky girl, whether it's fierce or not, whether it's ass or not, and besides, I think that's how much control you have over the underground shelter, are you sure he'll listen to you? ”

At this moment-

"Bang" and explosion!

In front was the sound of the door opening, and behind was the explosion of Winnington, the king of the female world.

"Bastard, my mother heard what you said!"

"First of all, my mother-in-law is the most respected leader of the refuge, and I don't allow you to slander her old man."

"And then my temper, my ...... Does it have anything to do with you? Are you qualified to comment? And who do you call a girl, look at your dead appearance that doesn't have any hair, and dare to call me a girl?! ”

Hearing this, Matthew spread his hands at the black-faced old woman, "Okay, let me correct what I just said, she is not a stinky girl, but a stinky old woman." ”

"You! ......”

Wen Nington rolled up his arms and sleeves, ready to teach this dead pervert who didn't know the height of the sky and the height of the earth a lesson.

"Xiao Wen, don't be impulsive."

The old woman on the seat waved her hand, "The cold wave period is coming, we don't have enough soul beast blood here to keep out the cold, I made a joke with Xiu, he knew I was joking, so he made a joke with me again; He's a newcomer, it's suitable to go to the front station, you have experience, take him with you, all for the sake of shelter. ”

Wen Nington, the king of the women's world: "But mother-in-law? ......”

"Nothing, tomorrow you two will leave, and the door will be open for you only for a week, if you don't come back...... I'll go rescue you. The black-faced old lady said.

What's new.

Danger in underground shelters isn't just vanishing monsters.

The three months of winter every year are the cold wave period, and if there are no items to protect against the cold, you will definitely die.

The realm kings of the sanctuary often go out to hunt soul beasts before the cold wave begins, and take the blood of soul beasts to ignite instead of luminous stones for lighting.

These blood-fueled oil lamps are the best protection from the cold.

The winter in the Vault is very difficult, so on the eve of the hunt, they will send people to investigate the situation of the new class of soul beasts so that it can be easily arranged.

The black-faced old lady's sentence "newcomers are suitable for playing the front station" is not a joke.

The blood of soul beasts is their life, and their sensitivity to blood is naturally different from that of ordinary beasts.

Anyone who has been stained with the blood of their own kind, those creatures can sense it from afar.

In the hunting stage, whether perceived or not, everyone has to kill.

It's not yet time, and scaring the snake will only create difficulties for the future.

Matthew asked the red-haired Winnington, "I went because I didn't get the blood of a soul beast, so why did you go?" ”

Winnington, who was unremarkable before and after, still held a grudge and left the old woman's house, basically ignoring Matthew.

"If you don't say it, then I'll guess."

Matthew said, "You haven't been stained with the blood of a soul beast either. ”

Hearing this, Winnington's footsteps paused.

"I think you have a good relationship with that old lady, and you will hide in his house during the cold wave."

"Originally, I didn't quite understand why you took in outsiders when they might pose a danger to the Vault, and even took the initiative to solicit them...... Now I understand, it's for this mission to fight the vanguard, right? ”

Winnington gave him a second look.

Matthew: "New problems, new people don't necessarily have every year, catch up with the years when there are no new people, what should you do, do you go out alone?" ”

"Very few of them were the only ones I was able to get rid of the winter supplies for free after completing the scouting in their first year," Winnington said. ”

Hehehe, finally willing to speak.

"So, what is a soul beast?"

"A strange creature that inhabits the world on the other side of the sanctuary, and the mother-in-law says that they may have been transformed from the blood shed by a holy king before he died."

The other end of the world......

A door that is open for only one week......

Matthew asks the black-faced old woman a question, and he asks about the method from the third to the fourth layer.

He let Matthew go out, could it be that the soul beast has something to do with the "method"?

......

Following.

The dividing line between light and darkness.

An illusory door.

The black-faced old woman of the vault stood at one end of the door and said, "Remember, you only have one week, and when you return, open the door according to the method I taught you; If it's too late, find a safe place to hide, and I'll send someone to rescue you. ”

The red-haired female king Wen Nington said: "We all remember my mother-in-law, don't worry, it's not the first time I have brought a newcomer." ”

On the other side, Matthew, who was dressed in white, yawned, "Okay, okay, haven't you been here many times, the seven-day countdown has wasted two minutes...... Hey, old woman, what's the use of hunting soul beasts other than using their blood to make lamp oil? ”

The black-faced old woman smiled and said nothing.

Immediately afterward, the illusory passage door also disappeared.

With a "snort", the torch was lit.

There is no sunlight outside the underground shelter, no glow-in-the-dark stones, no artificial light, only darkness.

The attribute of the Realm King Winnington is fire, which is one of the reasons why the old black face chose him to be the pioneer guide.

Outside the shelter, the so-called cold wave has begun to take shape, and with Winnington's physique, even if there is no open fire, it is enough to be rescued.

Matthew, as a pure newcomer to 24K, has the biggest advantage of coming with physical stealth.

When the hunting team arrived, the soul beasts could feel it every few kilometers or even more than ten kilometers.

Newcomers walking in this area, as long as they don't step on the head of the soul beast, they will basically not be attacked.

The two-phase team is a very good match.

But...... Matthew and Winnington don't like each other.

Once, as I witnessed with my own eyes, Winnington always thought that someone was a pervert of perverts.

In fact, Matthew's mental state is not good for a long time, because of the doppelganger's various distresses on the ground.

Winnington, not so.

It shouldn't be the case with the dignified realm king and the water and soil not adapting, so, "You stay away from me, especially when you are resting." ”

Matthew said, "Well, that's exactly what I mean. ”

Lord Matthew mainly dislikes Winnington for being ugly.

"Ugly" here is a relative adjective.

Compared to their Niloubel, Vivien, Ares, etc., Winnington is indeed not pretty.

Thinking about the harsh living conditions of the extraterritorial battlefield, and thinking about what the underground shelter has to go through every year, it is quite rare for Winnington to maintain it in the way it is now.

"Soul Beast ......"

As Winnington was looking for his way ahead, a figure stepped out behind Matthew.

Once again, his doppelganger technique was activated.

If the entrance to the third → fourth floor were in this dark place, Matthew would not have needed the preferential treatment given by the Vault to newcomers.

On the other hand, since he hunted soul beasts wantonly, and he might also have an impact on the realm kings living underground, it was better to act secretly in this matter.

"How can you find a way out without killing soul beasts?"

Regarding the advantages of soul beasts, Matthew's understanding is that if you don't threaten them, they don't bother to take care of you.

The black-faced old woman in the shelter said that they had always been restrained in hunting soul beasts, and once they met the needs of the cold wave, they would stop immediately.

And now, Matthew is desperately going to the depths of the dark place, he doesn't believe in soul beasts and is too lazy to care.

......

"Whirring", two soft rays of light.

Torches can illuminate, flames can illuminate, and pure light can illuminate.

The clone Matthew struck two [Illumination Techniques], and the radius of five meters instantly became like daylight.

"Ding" ~

Warning: A large number of dangerous creatures are approaching you!

Matthew: "!! ”

"I understand why the fire attribute is more popular than the light attribute here."

the role of fire attributes, lighting, heating; The light attribute is only useful for lighting, and it attracts soul beasts.

Doppelganger Matthew.

Big exclamation mark.

Warnings are constant.

Soon a herd of translucent beasts in the shape of jackals, tigers and leopards surrounded them.

"Hey, this is a soul beast, and it doesn't look very strong."

Without warning.

The soul beasts rose up and attacked.

Matthew, the doppelganger, unleashed a short knife and spared the pounce of a jackal, sweeping and cutting off the heads of the three soul beasts.

These guys have a good sense of battle, and as soon as Matthew slashed his sword, more than a dozen soul beasts immediately attacked his back.

"Knock knock knock"! ......

Burst into flames, and he was better at making fists than knives.

However, as the two pure lights continued to shine, the monsters around Matthew were only seen more than few.

At the same time, Matthew discovers a miraculous phenomenon.

Soul beasts don't have blood.

And the monsters he killed will inexplicably resurrect after a period of time.

"Hehe, it's kind of interesting."

The other side.

Under the torches, Winnington continued to find his way.

The Vault has been fighting soul beasts for so many years, and has made quite a few maps of the Dark Lands.

These maps are small in size and vary.

Matthew asked, and Winnington reluctantly replied, "The darkness is far more extensive than you can imagine, and although it doesn't change every year, the chances of us encountering unexplored areas are quite significant. ”

In other words, the Dark Place is mobile, or the door that opens from the Vault is not fixed.

"Is the soul beast easy to kill?"

"Why do you ask this?"

Matthew said, "Oh yes, you haven't killed a soul beast, and you don't know. ”

Winnington said: "Who told you that I don't know, the most valuable thing in the soul beast's body is their soul bead, and the thing that my mother-in-law said is suspected of being the blood of the Holy King, is that bead." ”

"I can't find the location of the soul beads, and they can be resurrected no matter how many times you kill them."

"Hunting soul beasts, the important thing is not to kill and kill the right place."

Speaking of this, Winnington reacted, "I'm telling you, don't mess around, our mission this time is just to determine the new and old maps, as well as the general range of activities of the soul beasts, you kill the soul beasts, and you will kill many people." ”

Matthew said, "Understood. So how do you find the Orb? ”

Winnington: "You're not bothered. ”

Matthew: "Don't forget, I'm a pure newcomer, and I don't have any experience. In case, I said in case, in case this cold wave requires me to go to war and doesn't give me time to prepare, I can't go to my death. ”

Hearing this, the red-haired Winnington said, "You talk a lot of nonsense. ”

"Although there are various forms of soul beasts, there are still types in general, and the old hunter can usually distinguish the location of the soul bead by type and experience, and when the time comes, you listen to the command, and it is not a problem to save your life."

This is......

"In case you leave an order." Winnington said, "Don't think too much, kill as usual, at the moment when the soul beast dies, they will subconsciously protect their soul beads, and take advantage of this time to find the soul beads and take them, they will not resurrect." ”
