Chapter 72: Protovariants

Chapter 72 Native Variants

The elevator went down for a long time and finally reached its destination, and Rosen suspected that it had gone dozens of meters underground at this time, and he was curious about how such a large underground project could be done, and at the same time there was a trace of uneasiness in his heart. After all, it is difficult for most people to be calm in this closed environment underground, and if you think about this situation, if nothing else, once it collapses, it is almost a fatal situation.

No one has answered in the chat message on the interface, which makes Lawson very anxious, but for now he can only follow Mr. Hua to move on.

Compared with the previous laboratory, the laboratory in the depths of the underground is more sci-fi in terms of decoration and lighting, or the instruments on the side, and the only violation is the dead silence, except for the occasional sound of electric sparks.

"The proto-mutant is in the innermost final lab, let's go!" Mr. Hua was familiar with the road, and used his card and his fingerprint to open one automatic door after another.

A flashing reminder message suddenly appeared on the interface, and Lawson was familiar with this kind of prompt, which was a hint of a new mission.

Hidden Quest Trigger: Kill the original mutant.

Rewards: 1. Experience 5000000, 2. Gene Fluid*1, 3, Random Equipment*1, 4, Ultimate Quest Fragment*1.

Description: Maybe you can save the world.

It's just a copy, and it's not the real world, how can we talk about salvation? And saving the world or something, Rosen is not interested, the rich reward is the motivation for his action, five million experience is enough to upgrade two levels. I don't know what the gene fluid is, but it shouldn't be bad if the name is so high. Random equipment depends on character. Only the last Ultimate Quest Fragment was something Lawson couldn't figure out.

But it doesn't matter, such a generous reward is already worth the risk, and it is a big deal to waste gold coins by fighting a bicycle to become a motorcycle. However, Rosen is also wary, such a high reward means that the so-called proto-mutant is not so easy to kill, and may be able to send himself back to the starting point directly, and he must be cautious when the time comes.

Soon, under the leadership of Mr. Hua, I walked through the corridors, turned left and right, and finally came to the deepest part of the experimental base. There was no way in, and the only door in the slightly smaller hall was supposed to be the final lab.

"Here we are, this is the final lab for the protovariants." As he spoke, Mr. Hua walked to the door and put his hand on the place where the fingerprints were scanned. The machine's green scan line fluctuated up and down, and then there was a crisp sound.

There is a whole wall of thickened glass on the side of the door, just like the window of some shops, you can clearly see the situation inside, Lawson slowly walked to the glass, slightly close to observe the inside.

On the left side of the room, that is, the direction that Mr. Hua entered, there was a small compartment full of instruments and equipment that was also made of glass, but the room that Lawson saw was empty and empty, and the walls and floors were pure white, which would make people a little dizzy and weird after a long time.

Bang! Suddenly, a face suddenly appeared in the glass in front of him! Lawson was startled and instinctively took a few steps back.

The face was really terrifying, flesh-red bumps covered the epidermis, high and low, even the left eye was squeezed out, as if the eyeball would fall off at any moment, and the monster's breath fogged on the glass, dissipated and then spread, and kept going. But the most frightening part is the monster's pupils.

There are almost no whites in both eyes, and there are faint white stars in the black pupils that are constantly rotating towards the center of the pupils, forming a whirlpool. When Rosen's gaze met the pupil, the whole person seemed to be sucked into the deep whirlpool, no, it should be an endless void.

Rosen felt his brain paralyzed, and the whole person seemed to be sucked into a mysterious hollow.

On the other side, Teacher Hua had already entered the control room on the side, which was the compartment full of instruments that Lawson saw, and she skillfully operated it a few times before turning around and shouting: "Next, I will start the purification program to completely kill the proto-mutant, please protect the control room in the next 5 minutes." ”

Rosen didn't hear, his consciousness still drifting in the endless void, unable to change direction.

A small dot of light appeared in the void, and Lawson was spinning towards it.

As the distance approaches, the point of light gets bigger and bigger, and the light cluster, light sphere, and visual effect are like a star approaching.

Rosen didn't know how long he had been floating, maybe a minute, maybe decades, his consciousness was already a little blurry, and he could only feel that the light had become extremely large, like a planet at close range, and the difference between ants and elephants was thousands of times greater. Suddenly there was a blank space in the center of the light cluster, oh no, it should be said that it was empty black, as if a black door had opened in the center of the light cluster.

'Why can't you feel the dazzle when it's so bright?' ’

'Strange, how do I feel like I have to go in there, that's my destiny......

Is it true that there is a feeling of going home? ’

'So warm, where am I?' ’

'Huh? Is that? What are they doing? ’

Rosen seems to have seen a few people dressed in strange and exaggerated costumes, who are surrounding rows of transparent green data? There are all kinds of data that are changing in the air, and some of them are like holographic projections.

'Who are they?' Why does it feel familiar? ’

“…… Boss, boss! ”

Fingal's roar rang out in Rosen's ears, and the image in his consciousness was instantly cut off, returning to nothingness.

When Rosen opened his eyes and found that he had fallen to the ground at some point, Fingal was calling incessantly from the side.

"What's going on?" Rosen asked, somewhat confused.

The anxious expression on Fingal's wolf face finally eased: "What's the matter, you fainted for some reason, you can't wake up no matter how you scream, that woman keeps saying let's protect the control room and I'm going to be annoyed to death, and now there are a lot of red dots on the minimap, and they are moving towards us, if you don't wake up, I'm going to bite you." ”

Rosen rolled his eyes: "You dare," and took a general look at the information record on the interface, and the prompt was to protect the control room from being invaded in the next five minutes, and after completion, he would be rewarded with 800,000 experience. Lawson hurriedly sorted out his state: "Let's go, block the door." ”

What were those strange people doing in my consciousness just now? The question still lingered in Rosen's mind. But he didn't have time to think about it, the enemy had already appeared in the passage.

The enemy that appeared this time was the last thing Rosen wanted to see...... Corpse.

"Hell, there are so many zombies, it's good that the terrain is narrow here, Fingal, the two of us retreat to the door to guard the gate, you give me a hard beating, and I'll attack the back row."

Saying that, Lawson was not stingy, and directly consumed the crystal nucleus to use the remaining two summoned beast places.

What made Rosen excited was that this time the summoned beast actually had an ironclad freshwater turtle!

Ironclad Freshwater Turtle, Level 37, Health 6600, Mana 0, Energy 75, Defense 125, Resistance 40.

Passive ability: Iron armor, when the non-critical part is hit by an attack, reduces all damage by 20%. When the Ironclad Tortoiseshell is broken, the passive ability is disabled and the defense is reduced by 90%.

Active Ability: Rotate, consumes 20 energy, rotates the body at high speed, and the sharp edge of the turtle shell will cut through approaching enemies, dealing 75 damage per second for 5 seconds, with a cooldown of 2 minutes and 20 seconds.

Description: This is a very tough beast, and despite its gentle nature, once it gets into trouble, it will never die.

Lawson's worry is that no one can act as MT in front of zombies who ignore defenses, and this ironclad freshwater turtle can be regarded as a solution to the urgent need. Even if the passive ability is ineffective against the zombie's ignorance defense, it doesn't matter, the more than 6,000 lives itself are enough for the iron-armored freshwater turtle to hold out for a while, and that's enough.

Because the iron gate can only accommodate two people to enter and exit at the same time, if this space is in this space, the ironclad freshwater turtle that is larger than the style can be completely blocked, and because of the terrain, it will not be attacked by too many zombies at the same time, and there is no risk of being killed in seconds.

And the other summoned beast and the ironclad freshwater turtle are simply a perfect match.

Timanra Grass, Level 32, Health 650, Mana 1100, Defense 18, Resistance 31.

Passive Ability: Heal Aura, always active, restores 35 HP per second to all allies within Radius 6.

Active Ability: Natural Healing, Chant for 3 seconds, Radius 20, Heal target 260-350 HP, Cooldown 10 seconds.

Description: Don't think that Timanra is just a plant, it's a great companion for adventurers, and a contract with it might save your life.

This shape is like a big strawberry upside down, with more than a dozen rhizomes supporting the ground, and several green tentacles extending from the top, the image is not bad.

One of these two summoned beasts can resist and the other can milk, which can be said to greatly reduce the pressure on Lawson. Not to mention anything else, just a summoner with healing ability summoning beast contract is no less popular in the Azure Continent than a real nurse, after all, most of the nurses are controlled by major forces and churches.

Under the command of Lawson, the ironclad freshwater turtle directly blocked the gate with its mountain-like body, blocking the zombies that wanted to rush in, and occasionally quickly stretched out and immediately retracted after a sharp bite. However, its normal attack is almost ineffective even against zombies with low defense, but it rotates this active ability, and when it is activated, you can hear a pop and puff sound, and the zombies that approach are basically cut in two.

On the other hand, the claw attacks of those zombies landed on the shell of the iron-armored freshwater turtle, and there was a piercing grinding sound, but it could only leave traces on the turtle shell, at least for a short time. Lawson estimated that even if the 10-minute summoning time was over, the carapace of the ironclad freshwater turtle would not be destroyed.

Glancing at the speed at which the vitality of the ironclad freshwater turtle is decreasing, Lawson is relieved, the 20% damage reduction effect is really effective, and the life dropped is less than 100 points each time, and with the passive healing aura of the Lifting Vine Grass, it is equivalent to only dropping about 50 points of vitality after being attacked once. This is not a threat at all to more than 6,000 vitality, not to mention that there is a strong nurse named Lawson behind who can switch treatment at any time.

Lawson took the AUG rifle and began to shoot, and there were still a lot of bullets left, so he could save some effort. At such a close distance, you can hit with little aim. Fingal was a little depressed when he couldn't use a hot weapon at the moment, so he had to release his natural ability to attack the earth attribute and kill the zombies, although the killing speed was not fast, but there was almost no danger in winning, and the information on the interface to gain experience began to scroll non-stop.

However, at this time, a statement in the interface chat message made Lawson almost collapse!
