Chapter 040: Picking Up Leaks
The rusty gate tells the vicissitudes of time, and with a gentle push, the false door opens a gap, and there is a black hole inside, and nothing can be seen.
"Bang Dang" Lin Xiso pushed open the two doors hard, allowing the fresh air to rush in. After about five minutes, I turned on the miniature searchlight and walked in carefully step by step.
The beam is very strong, it can shine out a hundred meters away, because he is wearing a heavy space suit, so he can't smell the outside world, and the toxins don't want to get into the door.
Scanning around, the walls were clinging to unknown plants, which immediately shrank back and rolled up in a ball when they encountered the light. The area has accumulated a lot of rainwater and seems to be carpeted, which has changed beyond recognition due to age.
I thought that the pharmacist's residence should be full of bottles and cans, or that it was a multi-purpose laboratory in itself, but now it turned out that it was very different from what I imagined. Near the left of the hall is a large dining table and statues of all kinds, like most vintage buildings, luxurious yet elegant, with a strong artistic atmosphere.
Lin Xiso thought secretly: "If there is no thick poisonous fog outside, it is difficult to associate this place with the pharmacist. ”
At this time, Linciso patted the detector, and there was nothing unusual. Searching the first floor of the castle, in addition to the side hall and kitchen, finally stopped in front of the basement door.
"Oh my God, so many people died!" Linciso was shocked, there were not a hundred but eighty corpses here, and they were horribly dead, their skin was frighteningly white, their eyes bulged out, and the blood vessels in their neck seemed to have burst from within. Perhaps it was an excess of toxins accumulated in the body, and there was no sign of decay, and most of the bodies were well preserved.
After observing for a while, Lin Xisuo pulled out the telescopic stand and probed over, the warrior monk who could break into the ancient castle must be extraordinary, so he had to retrieve it.
Looking through the bodies, nothing was found, apparently someone had taken the lead and searched so carefully that they had almost stripped off their clothes.
Lin Xisuo muttered in his heart: "It's good to leave a few units of crystal refining!" Cleaned up so cleanly, didn't it make it clear that I should drink the northwest wind? ”
Next, all hope was pinned on the basement, but when Lin Xisuo entered, his eyes rolled white, and there was not even a large tile left in it.
"What is the purpose of trying to break through the poisonous fog when you kill a thousand knives? Still not want to earn benefits and get the pharmacist's inheritance? However, it backfired, judging from the current situation, someone must have entered the castle and taken all the benefits away. No wonder it went smoothly and without the slightest hindrance. Linciso scolded in his heart.
After searching the basement to no avail, Linciso hurried to the second floor of the castle. It's a mess, like a fierce battle, with holes in the walls and lots of laser swords.
"Tsk, I don't know who broke into the castle, and the price paid must be not small." Linciso searched room by room, and as before, found nothing, and walked to the third floor of the castle.
The third layer of the castle was already the top floor, and Linciso knew that there was little hope, and thought to himself, "The only benefit I get from coming to SJ305 is probably that slapped big purple moss." ”
Unexpectedly, the walls of the third floor of the castle were covered with dark red vines, and the rhizomes of these vines had many slashing marks, but they were tenacious and grew later.
"Wonderful, with these vines, we may be able to extend the sense of touch and do more detailed detection. Mom and dad bless your son, don't go back in vain! Lin Xisuo hurriedly sat down, put his palms on the ground, and used his source ability with all his might, and in an instant, the human body's magnetic field covered some of the vines, and his consciousness penetrated into it little by little, constantly intertwining with it and trying to establish contact.
The red vines have suffered a catastrophe, and they are extremely resistant to external spiritual power, and half an hour has passed, and the two sides have reached a stalemate, and this guy is not willing to be a carrier of Lin Xisuo's thoughts at all.
Linciso's chest and back were covered with sweat, and she felt suffocated in her heavy space suit, and her overuse of her source ability gradually showed fatigue.
There had never been such a phenomenon, Lin Xisuo did not believe in evil, and constantly attacked the red vine defense barrier, and the hard work paid off and slowly got in touch.
Lin Xiso reassured in his consciousness over and over again: "I won't hurt you, we can be friends, what kind of nutrients do you like?" Tell me and I can figure it out for you. ”
The red vine never bought it, so it had to take a bribe and try to follow it. It's probably not unusual to be able to grow on the third layer of the castle, but who knows if this thing is dangerous? I'd rather work more than do it.
Not to mention, the red vines eat this very much, sending fragments of information. Its requirements are very simple, it wants to get highly poisonous creatures, what poisonous lizards, poisonous earthworms, poisonous cockroaches, that is the one who comes, and it does not matter whether it is alive or dead.
For various reasons, the red vines can only grow on the third floor of the castle, and the rest of the castle is a forbidden area, and its toxicity is so outrageous that any creature that comes in front of it will be life-threatening.
Lin Xisuo moved his body, deliberately pulling a certain distance, and had a ghost idea. I prayed in my heart: "Martial Cultivators, I'm really sorry, it's too dangerous to hunt down those highly poisonous creatures, so I will use your body for the time being." ”
A few minutes later, Linciso brought up two of the corpses piled up on the first layer and threw them among the red vines to see the effect.
The vines danced instantly, wrapped around the corpse and sucked it, and decomposed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and it didn't take long for the corpse to disappear.
"Good fellow, this vine is so powerful, wouldn't it be invincible to get some of it back as a weapon?"
continued to communicate with the other party, and soon got a response, this guy didn't eat enough, saying that there were few toxins, so he was very dissatisfied.
"Damn, insatiable! Tell you to eat, give you enough to eat. ”
In line with the principle of entering the earth for peace, Lin Xisuo moved the warrior monks who had been buried in the ancient castle for generations. They have toxins on their bodies, which are obviously not suitable for cremation, resulting in volatile toxins that sometimes spread to the entire planet. It is easy to be bitten by all kinds of poisons when buried in the ground, so it is better to let the vines decompose, which is conducive to environmental protection and has a place to go.
After digesting the "nutrients", the red vines change from dark red to bright red, then from bright red to red, and finally to black.
The plant shook off the size of its fingernails, leaving only the main trunk and some branches, and clinged to the wall with its teeth and claws, which looked like a crack in the wall from a distance.
"It's not going to die, is it? Don't settle accounts with me. Lin Xisuo pressed his palm to the ground, and waves of spiritual power were transmitted to him, and his thoughts merged with the vines in an instant.
Linciso instantly learned that this guy was not only not dead, but also very excited, and he had just successfully evolved, and his toxicity and decomposition ability had become stronger, so he was full of gratitude.
"Hehe, plants are plants, there are not so many complicated thoughts, whoever gives it benefits, it will be good to whom. I'll come back to studying the vines later, and it's time to explore the third layer. With the help of the vine spread, Lin Xiso found that the black vine was only one.
Very depressed, the room on the third floor has been looted, and it is even cleaner than the two floors below, and even the cracks in the walls have been plowed by the laser sword. After finding out the situation, Lin Xisuo was so angry that he scolded: "Bastard raised by paramecium, you don't even give me a mouthful of soup when you eat meat." has the ability to clean up the castle, why can't the large poisonous fog outside be resolved? This is deliberately misleading. ”
Lin Xiso was very unwilling, venting his random feelings, and suddenly froze. Xin said: "No, why do vines only exist in the third layer?" It seems to be constrained by some kind of force, and the fragment of information that came from before is very incomplete and fleeting, so I didn't think deeply about it. Turning his head and thinking about it carefully, he realized that he was a hundred secrets. These vines don't seem to be wild, but artificially cultivated. The warrior monks who broke into the third layer must have regarded them as dangerous poisons and cut them down with all their might, ignoring certain important points. There are many people who come, and they will naturally return with a full load. All that needs to be done now is to find the strength to prohibit the vines from growing outward, which is the only hope at the moment. ”
Linciso took a few steps forward, sat down cross-legged, and said silently, "Where is the root?" Roots, the roots of the constraining vines! ”
Consciousness seemed to pass through walls, through scenes of light and darkness, and after an unknown time, my heart suddenly moved.
"See, it's a cyan. I see, not inside the castle, but on the dome outside the castle. ”
Quickly ran outside, hit the traction light, climbed to the top of the ancient castle railing, and saw thirteen rough stone statues, one of which had a slightly upturned mouth, and could not be seen at all if he didn't pay attention.
"What could it be? Let's move the stone statue back, this is never a place to stay for a long time, and I hope to gain something. ”
Thinking of this, Lin Xisuo hurriedly called: "Uncle, come and answer, and use the traction light to take away the stone statue beside me." ”
"Roger, the Phantom is coming at once." John replied.
A moment later, several rays of traction light were cast in the air, and the stone statue was accurately entangled, and with a loud "boom", the stone statue was pulled high, and a large hole was revealed in the dome of the ancient castle.
Linciso was also hoisted, and then fell out of the fog area, and Sasha was already impatiently waiting, and there was a ball of clear water in her head.
"Okay, rinse a few more times, I believe you won't get toxins if you're so careful."
"I've never seen a human being as afraid of death as you, dressed like a ball, and afraid of this, afraid of that."
"Dear Sasha, do you have the guts to try? There is only one life, and it is not worth it to die because of an ancient castle. ”
Layer by layer, he took off his space suit, and suddenly the ground trembled slightly, and when Linciso looked back, the castle had collapsed.
The black vines seemed to have been reborn, dancing through the ruins, growing rapidly. Lin Xiso was stunned, and then exclaimed, "Oops, this guy got out, hurry up and board the boat and avoid this place." ”
Gray mist erupted from cracks in the ground, and the Phantom flew high into the air with a stone statue, observing the direction of the castle from afar.
Black vines entangled many highly poisonous creatures and feasted on them. After that, the roots are inserted into the ground and the poisonous mist is inhaled.
John pointed to the light screen and asked, "Hisoka, is this the monster you unleashed?" Obediently, how can you eat poison? ”
Lin Xisuo hurriedly explained: "The stone statue we got has been suppressing the vines, so people are honestly dormant on the third floor of the ancient castle, who knew that it would come out and move so much." I don't have a good relationship with this vine. I didn't expect the poisonous fog to be hidden underground, which was a new discovery. ”
"Hey, what's so special about the stone statue, why can't I see it?" Sasha looked curious.
Linciso muttered to herself, "yes! I can't sense anything unusual, but I can clearly see a cyan, there must be a mystery hidden. ”
