Luo Zhiqing heard Miao Pu's question and looked at Miao Pu and said, "There are some things you should have guessed, I have seen the manufacturing process of this kind of monster, and its embryo body is the Awakened." Ordinary people make embryos, and it's the kind of thing that can command other monsters, you call them bastards. ”

Speculation is speculation, and it still makes people feel very uncomfortable after being confirmed, after all, being a human being in this era is already very sad, and it is definitely not good information to be transformed into some kind of monster. However, this information is very important after all, and it is impossible for everyone to ignore it.

Miao Pu adjusted his emotions and continued to ask, "So you have come into contact with the core content of this monster system?" ”

"Core?" Luo Zhiqing smiled and said: "They are not the core, this underground world has formed a strange ecosystem, and this series of monsters is only a part of this ecosystem." There's more than one line of strange plants capable of producing these monsters, and as far as I know, someone has mastered a portion of one of them. ”

"What?"

"There's nothing strange about that, is it? The ability to manipulate plants isn't particularly rare, and you don't have the pride to think that you're the only one in the world who can play plants! ”

Miao Pu explained: "No, I'm surprised by the progress, it turns out that someone has gone so deep, but I am still wandering around the periphery. I said how these monsters squeezed toothpaste like unpleasant, it turned out that they were fighting more than one group. ”

"I can't say that, as far as I can see, the impact of your intervention is actually the greatest. Not only did it attract monsters to attack, but it also forced other teams to change their original plans, like the Aragami people, their plans were greatly modified. ”

"It seems that you have collected a lot of valuable information, is it inconvenient to reveal it?"

"What's inconvenient, I'm looking for you to cooperate with you, and cooperation naturally requires sharing intelligence."

"Cooperation? Haha, okay, it's good to cooperate, but let's talk about what you want first, don't sell me and can't pay the cooperation fee. ”

"Yuanzhu!"

Luo Zhiqing also understands Miao Pu's character, so she chose to be straightforward, she explained: "This is the name we gave to a power source of the source civilization. When I first discovered it, it looked like a stone ball, and it would have been easy to overlook if it weren't for the high standard of the equipment that holds it. No matter how much attention was paid to it, I didn't expect that it to be a power source, and the Aragami people were the first to know its function and snatch it by virtue of the Awakened's special sense of it. ”

Miao Pu answered: "Then use it to activate a device in the underground ruins, and then the source transformation begins?" ”

"That's pretty much it."

Miao Pu sarcastically said: "Those guys in charge of security, why don't they die?" ”

"In fact, they're all dead."

“……”

Luo Zhiqing continued observantly: "Maybe you will say that they all have unavoidable hardships, and they are quite pitiful, and it is not impossible to talk about it, not completely unreasonable. But as far as I know, if they could, they would prefer not to talk about it, and they would be unreasonable. This is also the reason why they have not been co-opted and bought by the organization. ”

Luo Zhiqing's words reminded Miao Pu of the members of the Aragami he had seen, even if it seemed to be the best to speak and the most reasonable [None], his appearance was after he defeated the Hulk, and although he looked like a wolf at that time, the ultimate means had not yet been used......

After thinking about it, Miao Pu said: "Don't worry, I will always be vigilant enough for them." ”

Miao Pu said: "Turning off that device, even if it is just to slow down the process of sourceization, is very meaningful. And I'm not interested in putting that hot potato in my pocket. However, it will be given to you, but if it is because it makes a greater fuss in your hands......"

Luo Zhiqing immediately promised: "Don't worry, if you really want to do that, I won't have to do it with you, I will make some people pay the price of blood, including their families." ”

"Family?"

"Share the blessings and share the difficulties!" Luo Zhiqing said categorically.

"Uh...... That's how you understand that. Well, you must not have learned the language well. Okay, you're tougher than me. Miao Pu said and put forward the second condition.

His condition is to save people first, since he wants to attack Yuanzhu, then it is inevitable to fight with a strong man of the same level as the two of them, and its fierce Cheng Dù is likely to be life-and-death, in the face of this kind of high-end battle, everyone else is a burden.

"I'm worried that once everyone starts to fight hard, the entire underground world will be demolished. So ......"

"Okay, I agree!" Luo Zhiqing responded.

"Do you know what that means?" Miao Pu asked rhetorically.

"Hehe, you don't need to say it, maybe the Aragami or other forces, seeing the shape is not good, take the source bead and leave. In this way, my purpose is frustrated. ”

"Yes, then would you still like to help me?"

"It doesn't matter, if they take the source beads, at least they will hinder the source process. It's already a victory for us, though not so complete. ”

Miao Pu nodded and said, "Thank you, I owe you once." ”

After reaching a consensus, the next step was to discuss the details of the operation, and before that, Luo Zhiqing told him about the information she had gathered.

Luo Zhiqing told him that the outer ring of the underground world, including the rat path and the familiar nest, she had explored it with special abilities, and there must be no survivors. To this day, there are only a few powerful teams that can still operate in this underground world, and the scientific research team and support team led by Bu Ji and Xie Hongjun are purely food deliveries, which have no impact on the overall situation.

Luo Zhiqing also told him that the distribution of plant monsters and rat paths is also biased, with the most on the B side, almost a pure plant monster in the world, and the least on the D and E sides, so you can see some other monsters.

Regarding the situation ahead, Luo Zhiqing explained to him like this: "The first thing a bird does after birth is to eat the eggshell. I feel that for the ruins of the source civilization, the heavy rock mass that envelops it is the eggshell, and many of them have been swallowed up. Although I still don't know what the difference between these rocks and ordinary rocks is. But I believe there's a difference between the two, and you will notice that as long as you go further. ”

No matter what difficulties and dangers lie ahead, they need strong combat power to escort them, and after obtaining a lot of information from Luo Zhiqing, Miao Pu also calmed down, so this time, he spent enough time to rest.

The biggest takeaway in recent times has been the new plant element. The acquisition of this element has strengthened his vine equipment, especially in terms of energy attaching, which has been significantly improved.

Now, he no longer has to engage in the virtual energy interlayer, the virtual energy can completely attach to the outer layer of the armor, and the inner layer forms a liquid energy buffer. In this way, the armor is like a steel plate coated with a thick layer of gum, whether it is hard protection or soft protection, it has been upgraded to a higher level.

In terms of appearance, if the previous rattan armor was chain mail, then the current one is plate armor. The style is designed by Miao Pu freely, and because it is grown, it has a natural beauty, rather than a strong sense of craftsmanship.

Although Luo Zhiqing has always been more disgusting Miao Pu's ability, which is basically the kind of eating people without spitting out bones, the things born from this are really easy to use, and this is what makes Luo Zhiqing envious.

To say that Luo Zhiqing's armor is also high-end enough, it is definitely tailor-made, handmade, designed by masters, fine materials, and gorgeous. Moreover, the practical process dù is far beyond it, and it is really called a model of violent aesthetics. No matter how good it is, it will lose its freshness after watching it for a long time, and it doesn't have the natural beauty of Miao Pu's armor.

In short, Miao Pu's ability to play with equipment as much as he wants is really quite enviable.

Of course, when it comes to protection, Luo Zhiqing's set is naturally higher, don't look at her wearing one with exposed legs and breasts, it is for aesthetics, and it has also been designed and researched. Plus, in addition to her top-notch hard metrics, her armor also has a certain amplification effect on her abilities.

The changes brought about by the new plant elemental factor are also reflected in the weapons.

The power, efficiency, and energy saving of energy have been further strengthened, and more importantly, they can be ever-changing. Mind shaping and advanced energy conduction, this is the core ability of the plant element factor, based on this, the category of cold weapons has been greatly enriched, the original can only be a simple shape of spears, broadswords or horse swords, and other changes, now it can be more delicate, and it can basically be said to be ever-changing, as long as he can think of it, he can make it, and the timeliness has also been greatly improved.

The other harvest was a little more peculiar, a small bag of obsidian-like energy crystals. These crystals are derived from the refinement of the vine monster after devouring the Alien A3 monster.

The source of the vine monster is the plant element factor of the strange tree species, which makes it a gluttony, organic matter and energy, and few of them cannot be devoured and transformed.

And what Miao Pu could think of was naturally the dark energy in the Yanggu Mine. It is this energy that gives birth to strange trees, but it also limits them to the area of the Yanggu Forest. Although he couldn't understand the specific internal relationship between the two, he roughly came to the realization that the dark energy was above the strange tree.

The energy carried by the Alien A3 monster is the layer wrapped around its claws. Oddly enough, this energy isn't an ability of its own, it's the most common ability for monsters. And there was also an alienated A3 monster left for dissection before, it turns out that even if they die, this energy will still not dissipate, they are obviously energy, but they have material properties, if it weren't for Miao Pu to compress and crystallize them with yin force, they may always maintain their original form.

Speaking of yin power, we have to mention the results achieved in the fusion of yin power and dark energy after the Yanggu mine incident.

The dark energy carried by the [darkness] of the Aragami is indeed powerful, and it has the meaning of being above one category of dark energy. And with Miao Pu's fusion attempt, his yin power texture is slowly but significantly improving.

Of course, the problem is not nothing, the higher the level, the greater the difficulty of refining, I want to [dark] in order to obtain dark energy, but in the center of the mine for a long time, Miao Pu naturally can't violate common sense, and easily create this level of yin power.

Therefore, everything is never in place, once and for all. Between gains and losses, it is always shown in front of the world in the form of leverage. The only difference is that people care differently about the two.

The 12-hour rest not only allowed Miao Pu to initially grasp the newly obtained plant element factors, but also completed the detailed combing of the body.

Every time such an energy level is combed, it can be regarded as a comprehensive conditioning and healing of the body, and it can even be regarded as an ingenious cultivation. The effect is especially noticeable after a strenuous exercise with high consumption.

After this combing, the injuries left by his battle with the Hulk have basically healed, and his condition has almost recovered to 90% of his peak. This value has already made him quite satisfied, after all, the fighting has been going on since the rescue operation, and it is very rare to still be in such a state.

In terms of abilities, the extra energy reserves are all used up, and the self is okay, basically in a full state.

Looking at the time, it was now more than 17 o'clock in the afternoon of February 15, and the danger intuition was like a string pulling the detonating device of a huge bomb, and it was a little tighter, which made Miao Pu, who had always believed in the danger intuition, realize that no matter what he planned to do next, he had to be more efficient.

In this case, he chose to rely on Luo Zhiqing's information, giving up the search of the remaining area of the outer ring and even the labyrinth rat path, and instead focused on the periphery of the underground ruins.

When it comes to underground ruins alone, the structure is not particularly complex. Most of the area is just a planar structure rather than a duplex structure, it is like a mine, connected by the main mine tunnel to one node after another, and each node expands more or less into some caves, just like the forward base that Miao Pu used when they renovated it.

Such a structure is naturally very fast to explore, and in many cases, Miao Pu's spiritual induction alone can cover all the caves. In addition, such areas do not have the conditions for long-term refuge.

However, such a lot is only a fringe area on the periphery of the ruins, and after a little inward, it changes dramatically. There are irregular cavities here and there, making the whole area look like a piece of cheese.

These hollows are clearly not artificial, as no trace of man-made can be found. Their cuts and inner walls are unusually smooth, as if clay and projectiles were fired together, and when cooled, the projectiles are dissolved, leaving only the effect of ceramic-like clay.

Such a structure not only makes the whole area extremely fragile, but also makes it much more difficult to pass, and one careless person may be pitted somewhere.

Luo Zhiqing comforted everyone: "Rest assured, this remaining rock mass frame is sourced, and its solidity is stronger than the equivalent steel, and the bearing capacity is no problem at all, as long as you pay attention not to leak down."

However, it is not so simple to really walk, especially for ordinary people like Kang Danian, who have to climb high and low again and again, and their physical energy is extremely consumed and they can't get out.

What's more troubling is that the road is just the beginning.

After a while, the monsters came.

Kang Danian and they could only find an aerial cross pontoon bridge with giant pillars to defend it, while Luo Zhiqing and Miao Pu slaughtered the commanders among the monsters.

Cannon fodder monsters and plant dogs are stupid, and even the bastards are not smart enough, but they have abilities, and this higher-level monster commander knows how to learn from experience. After being killed by Miao Pu and Luo Zhiqing, the remaining one started to fight, not confronting the two head-on, and at the same time constantly releasing energy dust, making ordinary monsters go berserk and constantly killing the two.

The ability monster is agile and flexible, and it also knows how to use a shield to rush in and escape, and use a jump slash to destroy the rock structure, even if the combat power of the two is much stronger than it, it is not easy to kill it quickly.

Of course, the most troublesome thing is that the space here is filled with a strange energy, which will neutralize a qiē ability, forming an external image of fog or even a snow-like substance, so when fighting, including the ability monster, you can see a layer of frost white when wielding the weapon, because the ability monster does not have the technique of breathing and closing energy like Miao Pu and Luo Zhiqing, the whole body is constantly emitting white gas, as if fighting in a cold cave, and in fact, even the energy plants here are not easy to grow, and they can't effectively absorb geothermal heat, So the temperature is about 20 degrees Celsius.

It is precisely because of this strange phenomenon that Luo Zhiqing is very, very dangerous to use the ability here. Her ability is highly skilled, and she needs to use her ability to complete an energy structure similar to a magic array, and the effect of the strange environment makes the energy structure be eroded and disintegrated by Yan Zòng from the moment it appears, and the result of the energy structure lacking integrity and forcibly using it is likely to be torn apart by the power of space.

Unable to use space to move, Luo Zhiqing could only cooperate with Miao Pu, while killing the minion monster, while chasing and intercepting the monster, it took a lot of time to shoot the leg with a surprise arrow, and then rob and kill it when its mobility ability was greatly reduced.

And during this time, Kang Danian inevitably fought a fierce battle.

The reason why it is said to be fierce rather than tragic is because the protection of the Yuanhua armor is really good, otherwise when the two of them return, they will have to die at least half.

The remnants of the monster retreated into the darkness in the distance, Miao Pu didn't even bother to absorb the life energy, and beckoned Kang Danian and the others to go on the road immediately, the terrain here is too unfavorable, if there is another battle like this, they can only fight bayonets in the later stage.

Although Luo Zhiqing had not gone so deep into this area, she had a far more complete map of the underground world than Kang Danian and them.

According to this map, after another round of arduous trekking, the group finally found the Frontier Research Institute.

It resembles a magpie's nest in a poplar tree in winter, in this peculiar cheese or beehive area, with its sheer size and completeness, in contrast to the surrounding rock structure.

When the group went up to the external platform of this research institute, they all had a feeling similar to climbing on the terrace of a palace in the sky, and their hearts were really down-to-earth.

Entering the present depth, all matter that has not been converted into energy has been sourced, without exception. Therefore, it is perfectly reasonable to understand this cutting-edge research institute as a treasure trove in the air, where every object stored in zài is more expensive than the same weight of gold.

Miao Pu tested the sturdiness of this place in several places, and then nodded with satisfaction, "Very good, even if the ability monster uses energy to slash, it can't destroy this place for a while, this is just a portal, and the rest of it should be even more difficult to gnaw, which is very suitable as our forward base station." "It took a lot of time to kill the minion monster, and it took a lot of time to kill the monster with a surprise arrow, and then rob it while its mobility ability was greatly reduced.

And during this time, Kang Danian inevitably fought a fierce battle.
