Chapter 67: The Dead Tree

After gritting his teeth and agreeing to Fasqi's reward of 10,000 gold coins, Alan and the others returned to the underside of the viaduct.

Coming here again, the mentality is very different, now that Sabnis's work has entered the orbit, and Alan no longer has to think about it in a panic, he can safely hunt and lick the Licker to improve his strength. Of course, more importantly, Alan wants to solve the hidden dangers in this area, in addition to licking the eater's lair, that huge tentacle is still a big problem for Allen to face.

Fasqi had the first lesson, this time the preparation was extremely sufficient, and the alchemy potion was enough to bring three bottles, which was enough to support the high-intensity battle, and Allen's request was very simple, as long as she helped at the critical moment, Fasqi could not use the alchemy ability at all at other times.

In just over an hour, dozens of Licker's nests were produced, and the high manufacturing speed was terrifying. But in Allen's eyes, these are all moving mitochondrial extraction boxes, he took a deep breath, the pitch-black claw blade drilled out, and then the whole person rushed towards the licker like a whirlwind. After the speed increases, the licker is completely unable to keep up with Allen's movements, so it is like a stake for Allen to ravage. In just ten minutes, Eren had solved the battle, and felt the prototype virus mitochondria transformed into his body, and Eren couldn't help but smile.

"At this rate, maybe I'm going to continue to improve one ability." Thinking so, Alan beckoned Fasqi to walk into the licker's lair together!

Faski's perception map had already reflected the three-dimensional image of the entire licker's lair in her mind, and she couldn't help but slow down as she looked at the vines on the top of the strange lair.

"Virions attack animals, and this is the first time I've heard that viruses can affect plants." She looked at the vine curiously, and saw that the outer skin of the vine was peeling off, and sarcoma began to grow on the blood-colored inside, "That's how it makes lickers?" ”

"That's right, it's like blossoming and fruiting, which is why I'm interested in this licker's lair, maybe there really is some energy system here that we can't detect."

As the two spoke, a licker broke through the flesh membrane and pounced, and Allen raised his left hand and stepped in front of the licker, the sharp claw blade easily pierced through the other's head, splitting the bare head in two. After the battle with the Licker, Eren also began to deliberately modify the claw blade. The black claw blade now has a shallow groove in the middle that absorbs the enemy's blood when pierced into the enemy's body. And the virus power machine in Allen's body has been allocated three on the claw blade, which are specially used to extract the virus mitochondria in the opponent's body. Alan can not only kill the opponent with one claw, but more importantly, he can also separate the opponent's mitochondria instantly, which greatly accelerates his advance and absorption speed.

After solving this minor problem, the two began to go deep into the first layer of the lair, looking for an entrance to the second level. Due to the peculiar shape of the Licker's lair, which resembles a tall building, it is made up of irregular balls, so Alan speculates that the core of the nest should be placed on the top floor.

When the two of them entered the innermost part of the lair, they found a problem. The entire first floor turned out to be a closed whole, and there was no way to the second floor. Fasqi kept looking around, and finally said helplessly: "It seems that there is no hope from the inside." ”

Alan suddenly remembered the holes outside the lair, and then said: "If there is no way inside, we might as well try outside, remember the outermost black holes, which should lead to the second layer." ”

The two of them made up their minds and withdrew, during which they were attacked by several lickers, all of whom became Allen's mitochondria.

The exterior of the Licker's lair is covered with pipes made of flesh and blood, and it is terrifying to wind up and up. From a distance, it looks like a huge bloodshot eyeball piled up, which makes people's hearts hairy. Fasqi frowned in disgust, but her eyes fell on the second huge sphere, she pointed to the nearest black hole to the two of them and said, "At this time, I found out that it is a very wise choice for you to upgrade your speed option." ”

Alan smiled, picked up Faski, and ran up to the second floor of the Licker's Lair!

The two of them easily burrowed into the black hole, Allen's infected vision was not affected by the darkness, and Fasqi had no intention of exploring the path with her eyes, and the perception map had already shown everything in front of her. So the two didn't delay too much and walked straight inside.

Unlike the simplicity of the first layer, the second layer is too messy. The ground was littered with the bodies of the lickers, lying in all directions, emerald green rattans burrowing into the lickers' brains, then out of the chins, and then connecting to the ground. As far as the eye could see, the entire ground was densely covered with the corpses of lickers, as well as the emerald green rattans.

Alan and the two looked at each other, and they both saw the surprise in their eyes. Because they can clearly feel that although these lickers are dead, they still retain a trace of imperceptible consciousness. In Allen's infected sight, there was a red light that emitted a dazzling light in the licker's brain, and in Fasqi's perception map, the weak mental power in the licker's body was firmly grasped by her.

"Something is wrong!" Fasqi couldn't help but come to the corpse of a licker, then crouched down to take a closer look, and after a long time, she suddenly pointed to the corpse of the licker and said, "I said what's wrong, you see, the appearance of these lickers is very different from the guys on the first floor." ”

As soon as Alan heard this, he immediately cheered up and took a closer look. Sure enough, the lickers here are slightly larger, with a translucent cuticle on top of their exposed brains. The most unusual thing is that their forelimbs are thick, the middle of the three toes is shaped like a dagger, much longer than the other two, and the hind legs are shorter, but the muscles are evenly distributed and full of explosive power.

On the other hand, the lickers on the first layer are relatively small in size, and their limbs are basically well-proportioned, and there is no such strong forelimbs, and the length of the three toes is basically the same, all like hooks.

Seeing this, Alan suddenly said, "Could it be that the lickers of the first layer were made according to the appearance of here. These half-dead creatures must be the most primitive specimens of lickers. ”

"You mean, this lair traps these primitive lickers and then uses their blood to create more and more controllable new lickers to fight?" Although Fasqi asked this question, he had already recognized this fact in his heart, "That's why we can see that lickers will be created in this special way." ”

"Go on, I'd like to see what kind of monster hides in the heart of this lair." Alan was intrigued, and at the same time he realized that it would be a great asset. If you can absorb the core part of the nest, the massive number of viral mitochondria can definitely help you complete a power improvement.

The two exited the second layer again, and then went all the way up the surface of the nest, this time Alan suddenly found that since the third layer, the skin of the nest had no holes, and as far as the eye could see, the entire licker's nest was composed of four huge irregular spheres, and the third and fourth were completely closed. Alan ran to the very top of the lair in a hurry, and he realized that the huge lair was almost parallel to the viaduct.

"Why don't we make a hole ourselves?" Fasqi said as he pulled out a delicate alchemy musket.

The musket was small and delicate, and it looked a little petite in the palm of Fasqi's slender hand. The body of the gun was covered with black lines, like black roses blooming. The muzzle of the gun is flattened and shoe-shaped, like a narrow slit. A red lens is inlaid in each of the upper and lower positions.

"That's all I have to do now." Alan took two steps back, and saw Fasqi holding the gun in one hand, and the two red lenses suddenly lit up, and then two scarlet pillars of light spread outward, and when they reached the highest point, they suddenly bent backwards, like a longbow.

Alan looked at Fasqi's left hand in amazement, and as soon as he grasped the void, he saw that the bow of the pillar of light bent suddenly, and a scarlet energy light arrow appeared in Fasqi's left hand, and the front section drilled into the alchemy musket and poked out from the flat muzzle.

Fasqi's eyes lit up suddenly, and the golden light was dazzling, and then the scarlet light arrow shot out, piercing straight into the licker's lair.

Alan stared widely, just watching the light arrow disappear and disappear, while the surface of the licker's lair did not change, and as soon as he wanted to say something, he felt a huge force coming from under his feet, and then the place where the light arrow had just been submerged suddenly bulged and exploded. A large crater with a diameter of three meters was blown up.

Fasqi put away his alchemy musket in satisfaction, and then made a gesture of please.

Alan couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "Awesome! Then he saw the inside and jumped down!

Fasqi followed, and the two of them were all stunned after they landed, through the light through the pit at the top, they could see the lush grass under their feet, and the nest was crawling with emerald green vines all around, like a scene full of vitality, but in the center of the fourth layer of the nest, there was a withered tree......
