315. Enter the tower
315. Enter the tower
This pit has been sleeping in the ground for a long, long time, until 10,000 years ago, a group of people came and brought light and lit up the darkness.
The appearance of that group of people is no different from today's people, but they have a huge energy in their gestures, like Wei Qi, a ferocity that can destroy the world with a single glance.
At that time, the things kept in the pit had a great battle with them, and the extraordinary abilities of those things were displayed in the great battle, and they were like the group of people, sparks and lightning in their gestures, and even the sky collapsed.
The fierce battle caused Yamashi to speed up the production of that kind of thing, but in the end, the victory was still in favor of the group. Although they were victorious, it was also a pyrrhic victory.
Of the few people who came, only two or three survived. As if in revenge, the mountain stone closed the exit, cut off the light source, engulfed the bodies of all the dead, and then gave birth to even more powerful monsters.
Defeat is not defeat.
Winning is not winning.
Another wave of monsters has been born, and their abilities are even more extraordinary and ferocious. After the remaining three struggled with the monster to the death, only one escaped from the pit.
The light and shadow sank into the darkness again, like a snap of a finger and a thousand years, and the only one who escaped returned. He is no longer young, although he is still frightened by the wind and clouds, but he is gray-haired.
More people follow Him from the light and into the darkness. Not only are they powerful, but they also bring with them a special weapon, a liquid that melts everything in the world!
When he first opened the pit, he naturally started a fierce battle with those monsters.
Although the monsters are strong, they are completely inferior to the magical liquid, and even after the mountain stone is baptized by the magical liquid, it cannot regenerate more monsters.
Because of the miraculous liquid, they have the courage to move in the deep pit.
Some of them began to collect something in the mountains, and the other began to build towers in deep pits.
Most of the things they collected in the mountains were transported directly, and the few that were not transported in time were stored in the towers.
The tower seemed to have been built to provide shelter for the diggers, but as it grew larger, a behemoth suddenly rose out of the pit. The towers are no longer just dwellings for diggers.
In order to prevent the monsters from attacking, they dug a deep circular river on the periphery of the tower, filling it with the magical liquid, and the river was connected to a mechanism at the top of the tower, and after a while, the top of the tower would spray the magical liquid.
It was a perpetual motion setup, and until minutes ago, the magic liquid had been sprayed once.
After the tower was built, the sole survivor reappeared in the pit again, then walked in and never came out again.
While the excavation in the pit continues, it is different. They brought in as much as they took out of the pit. Those things didn't seem to be the same as the ones that were shipped out of the pit.
They were neatly arranged from the ground floor of the tower to the twelfth floor.
When preparing to install the thirteenth floor, something seemed to have happened, and everyone withdrew from the tunnels in the pit and the tower, and left directly.
Before leaving, they destroyed all the mine tunnels, as well as the drawbridge leading to the tower. The few who did not withdraw in time all jumped into the circular river outside the tower before the darkness completely sealed the pit, and their bones were melted to pieces.
Light and shadow sink into darkness again.
The earth shook and roared.
It seems to be anger, and it seems to be sad.
About a hundred years ago, [they] brought the most advanced drilling equipment of the time to reopen this underground cavern, bringing light and the experimental area buildings several stories above ground.
By the time the tower was discovered, [they] seemed to have obtained some sort of clearance, and were able to cross the moat outside the tower, enter the tower, and re-establish several sensory passages connecting different locations on the mountain wall.
One of them, right on the staircase of the fault at the foot of the Ink Pupil, directly connects to the 23rd floor of the tower.
Mo Tong blinked, and was so smoked by the pungent smell that not only did tears flow, but also every breath was painful. This forced her to hold her breath while condensing the barrier, strengthening the protective spiritual power around her body, and blocking those unsolicited information and stimuli.
As far as she could see, the sensing channel [they] had set up should be right under her feet. However, she didn't have the so-called permission, and the passage should not be evoked.
How was she supposed to get to that tower?
Although she was cut off from the outside world, she could clearly feel that the summons that had been hiding in the darkness were coming from the tower!
She had to go to the tower to see what was going on!
Just as Ink Pupil was about to descend on the tower, the ground shook again.
This time the tremor lasted for about five minutes, and when the ink pupil came, several steps of the stone staircase embedded in the mountain were shattered by the shock.
Mo Tong was shocked, took a few steps back in the shock, and couldn't help leaning on the rock. The warm touch from the rocks startled her again, as a huge shadow descended from afar.
Mo Tong turned sideways, and at the same time threw out the machete in the bracelet, always ready to give the sudden demon shadow a knife. However, the demon shadow did not really manifest in front of her, but only met her and swam into the darkness farther away.
Yes, the demon shadow is swimming, swimming in the mountains and rocks, like a fish swimming in water!
They are monsters born of mountain rocks, and mountain rocks are not stones for them, but mothers!
Looking at the disappearing demon shadow, Mo Tong blinked, and suddenly felt as if he had walked into the belly of a monster. The corpse will be devoured by the rocks and then born, but is the one that is born still the original one?
Farther into the darkness, several clumps squeezed out of the rocks. They were covered in pitch black, as if they had been wrapped in thick asphalt, and they seemed to have been soaked in a garbage pond that had been soaked for tens of thousands of years before crawling out.
After breaking free from the rocks, they seemed to have some strength, and they all shrank to the ground one after another. After a while, as if they had adapted to the envelopment of the rocks, they began to pull on themselves. A hand stretched out from the thick, black liquid, a leg stretched out, and a mouthful of teeth was exposed......
The self-tugging of the psychotic episode lasted for about half an hour before it stopped. Then reveal their true colors, some like human-headed sphinxes, some like lion-headed ossified demons, and some three-headed six-armed cylindrical bodies, and even dinosaur people......
They roared in the darkness, as if to summon, and in the towers, there was the same roar, echoing. They seem to want to get into the tower, and the people in the tower seem to want to rush out.
After hearing the response from the tower, the monsters that had just spawned from the rocks pounced on the tower. Because of the barrier of the moat outside the tower, they were melted by the liquid in the river before they even entered the tower, and there was a very small number of people who stepped on the corpses of their companions into the moat, but unfortunately before they could open the door of the tower, they triggered the mechanism of the tower, and they were either killed by ten thousand arrows, or melted by the liquid sprayed.
Seeing this scene, Mo Tong shuddered coldly. I wonder if the tower's defense is only against the monsters that spawn from the rocks, or everyone?
It stands to reason that this is the fourth experimental area, after the third area is out of control, even if it will be affected here, but there is an enchantment separating it, it should be a safe area, and it is still in operation, why is it dark here and there are no traces of people? Could it be because she kicked the minus 21 floor and ruined the control of the entire experimental area?
But the main control room is not on the minus 21 floor at all!
That is, the power supply of the entire experimental area, and the control of enchantments and the like is not the control of the negative 21 layer at all!
What did she miss?
Mo Tong raised his hand and threw the machete out, and the machete flew straight into the tower, and after a "swish", it was directly inserted into the 23rd floor of the tower. Seeing that the machete was neither blocked nor attacked, Mo Hitomi straightened the silk thread attached to the machete in his hand, and then swept along the silk thread.
Luckily, the tower's defenses were only against the monsters, and she was able to make her way through the machete-torn window to the 23rd floor.
The 23rd floor was empty, and there wasn't a single footprint on the dusty floor, except for her machete stuck in a column.
In the previous illusory images, she clearly saw that [they] had many people entering the 23rd floor through the induction channel, and it stands to reason that there should be footprints even if there were no other ornaments here, but at this moment, there was nothing-
Is it an enchantment again?
To build such a vast experimental area, there is no shortage of capable people and strangers who can make suggestions, and under her induction, they can hide the enchantment, although it is rare in the world, but it is not nothing. After all, the existence of those thousand-year-old demons, she can't count them on one hand.
Ink Hitomi put away her senses, walked over to the column, took down the machete, and then went down the stairs in the northwest corner of the 23rd floor. The things on the 24th floor, she glanced through the floor, and it was basically the same as the 23rd floor, empty, the only thing that was the perpetual motion device that sprayed magical liquid.
All the way down, through four floors in a row, there was nothing.
Just when Mo Tong was used to those things being closed by the enchantment to keep her from knowing, on the 18th floor, a group of staff in the experimental area who had been corpsed suddenly rushed out.
It is clear that the cause of their death is not the loss of control of the third district, but more of something else.
I don't know if it was deliberately done by the person who set up the barrier, or if there was no enchantment here in the first place, Mo Tong was startled by the group of corpses who suddenly rushed out, and immediately grabbed the machete, and cut one by one, two by one, and a pair.
The 18th floor of the tower is a completely modern office area, with neat desks with computers and many materials next to them. After cutting down the corpse, Mo Tong walked into the office area, flipped through a few pages of information on the table, and found that the text on it was not modern simplified Chinese, nor was it the language of any country she had ever seen, and even the content recorded on it could not be understood by her red eyes.
