Chapter 8: Breaking through the Wall
"I'll try its combat power first."
Babu held her breath and silently approached the monster, and Monica waited a few meters away with a whip in her hand.
As it got closer, the sound of the tentacles tearing through the air became clearer and clearer, the sound was actually not loud, but the sound of dozens of tentacles overlapped together, which inevitably made people's hearts tremble.
"Knock knock", close to a certain point, Babu found that the same as when he first entered the edge, the nameless fear appeared out of thin air again, and quickly spread in the bottom of his heart, whether it was diverted or forcibly suppressed, the fear still followed, as if it was an instinctive reaction in the heart.
Patiently disturbed by fear, Babu forcibly collected his mind, looked up at the waving tentacles, dozens of tentacles flicked around, and they were exceptionally coordinated, without a single impact, and they were safe with each other, circling along their respective tracks.
After staring for half a minute, Babu suddenly jumped, his body spinning, his movements like a dance, and he pitched freely through the tentacles. The source energy is really easy to use, all kinds of difficult actions are easy to do, and the tentacles pass him at close range, but they can't touch him at all.
After circling around the monster, Babu gritted his teeth and suddenly lifted the shield of the breath of life, so, without any warning, the surrounding tentacles instantly burst out, squeezing from all sides and in the middle, to completely tear apart the core of Babu.
Fortunately, I just observed for a long time and found some rules for the operation of the tentacles, Babucha dodged quickly and slowly, and saw through the gaps of several tentacles, and approached the body the size of the monster pig, and the wrist flipped over, and the dagger was raised, and the source energy flowed in the dagger, making the dagger more cold.
Stab.
Babu half-crouched on his legs and stabbed him hard, but the moment the dagger touched the surface of the monster, the surface of the monster trembled, and the dagger slid away to one side before it could completely pierce the skin. Not only the dagger itself, but also the source energy that erupted with it, which was supposed to attack the trick inside and explode from the inside, was also blocked by the shaking of the surface, and exploded directly on the surface, although the surface of the trick was dented by the impact, it was immediately restored to its original and unscathed.
Before he could marvel at the defensive power of the monster, the fear in Babu's heart grew stronger.
Not only the deep fear that came from the soul when approaching it, but also the premonition of danger, the fear of impending death.
There is danger.
With a flick of his legs, Babu shot backwards like an arrow, and even the tentacles swirling around him didn't care, just trying to get away from the monster's side as fast as he could. In mid-air, Babu's body shrunk into a ball like no bones, reducing his attack area as much as possible, but he was still hit by tentacles one after another, and the source energy of the mutual body could not block the sharp tentacles, and several deep blood marks were left on his back.
"Snort", the whip burst through the air with a hissing sound, and the long whip bypassed Babu's back, swinging a few tentacles, and then dragged him away from the monster's side at a faster speed, until then Babu had the energy to look back, and a thick red mist poured out of the monster's body, instantly enveloping the entire space around the monster's body. The familiar fishy red mist was too thick to see, but the threat of death emanated from within, making it seem as if Barb heard a howl from hell.
The body fell to the ground, and Babu rolled on the spot, only to feel a pain in his back, but he was hurt by this disgusting monster to look at...... Babu only felt an itch on his back, so he wouldn't be contaminated or infected.
"Your soul resistance is high enough that it is not so easy to be polluted, otherwise I would have watched you join the garrison, and it is impossible to invite you, so you can rest assured." Monica guessed his concern when she saw Babu's back stirring, and while comforting, she skillfully bandaged his wound, and finally slapped him hard at the place of the wound, "Now you know you're scared?" Dare to cry out for pain, this is a lesson. โ
"You're revenge." Babu snorted and took a few steps, turned back to Monica and glared angrily, but Monica snorted, didn't look at him at all, and urged him forward as if nothing happened, Babu could only make a thumbs down gesture, re-shield his life, and return to the vicinity of the monster.
After not sensing any vitality for a while, the red mist had already retracted the monster's body, and the monster fell down again against the ground, and the tentacle wave became smaller and smaller.
This time there was no further trouble, and Babu glanced back at Monica, found a gap, and slipped through the wall. Monica also followed closely, and the two sneaked in one after the other, never alerting the monsters that stood in their way.
Behind the strange thing, there were two stairs up and down, and the stairs that went down into the darkness made it impossible to see anything. Without waiting for Babu to go, Monica quickly knocked open the four fluorites and threw them down the stairs in pairs, rolling down the stairs in pairs, and the cold fluorescent light rolled down one by one, until it reached the end of the stairs.
The light was dim, but the two of them could see clearly, the walls and floors were indeed bare, and they couldn't see any strange things. However, no one was happy, because at the end of the stairs, in the darkness, there was a strange thing similar to the doorway blocking it, although the fluorite hit it did not react, but the two had no doubt that once it felt the breath of life, it would immediately turn into the deadliest threat.
Without stopping, the two crept around the staircase with the help of fluorescent tiptoeing, but as soon as they entered, they immediately retreated. As Monica said, this thing is not one but a bunch, and it doesn't take a few steps to meet several of them, and I don't know how many there are in the depths, so it's hard to move an inch.
The condensed consciousness extended the scope of energy perception to the interior of the building, and found that within the reach, not far away, there was one such strange object wandering in the corridors and rooms, and it was impossible to find a space with a gap of ten meters on all sides.
The faces of the two people who returned to the patio were a little ugly, and with the difficulty of this thing, Babu himself was more reluctant to deal with the previous one, even if the two joined forces......
"Three or four at most." Monica saw what Babu was thinking, and replied in advance, "The combat power of this thing is not an addition, and it is much more difficult to have one more." โ
"Actually, there is a way, if you can't lead those tricks out one by one, you can break them one by one, so that you can advance steadily, but I don't know how long it will be delayed." Babu said with a headache, "I didn't expect there to be so many, didn't you say that there is only one who repels each other?" โ
"yes, that's right. How can you be sure that these things are not...... One? โ
Babu was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood the meaning of Monica's words: "You mean, the dozen or so we saw, as well as the dozens, hundreds, and thousands of them, are actually branches of 'a' monsters, directly controlled by it?" โ
"I'm not sure, but, quite possibly."
"That's troublesome, it's impossible to even break each one." Babu planned with a headache, "The basement is often twisted and turned, even if we find the target, the time of a breath shield may not be able to reach the target's location, and there is no trimming place halfway, if you can't pull it out and knock it out, the risk is too high, I'll think about it, I'll think about it again." โ
"Let's go back." Monica suddenly made a decision with a calm face, "Anyway, the purpose of this trip is just to confirm." Now I confirm that there is likely to be a node here, but I don't know if it is a first-level or second-level one, the purpose is halfway completed, it is better to go back first, you have only recently mastered the source energy, and you have just come into contact with these, so it is not suitable to continue to insist. โ
"Huh? Is this going back? "Didn't you say that something could happen in the town at any time, and that a day late would be more dangerous?" โ
"That's true."
"Then you ......"
"I really want to get through this with the town, and I want to protect the annoying people, so I'm eager to solve the problem right away, at least as soon as possible, and I'm ready to take the plunge." Monica explained with a serious expression, "But that's me, and it's just me, you have your life, according to my guess, you're different from others, you're not someone who can't live if you leave the town, I'm not qualified to ask you to risk your life together, and there's no reason why you shouldn't be obliged to accompany me on the adventure, so I'll talk about it when I go back first." โ
"I see." Babu stared at Monica for a long time, as if she had suddenly made a decision, and suddenly burst into a low chuckle, "Now there is." โ
"Huh?"
"I said, now there's a reason to take risks together." Barbu walked straight to the debris in the patio, rummaged through it for a while, found an iron drill made of steel bar, picked up a few hard stones and took them with him, and turned back and said, "I'm an observer, and my job is to observe, right?" โ
"Hmm."
"Very well, then I'll start reporting my observations now."
Instead of trying to invade the basement, Babu walked along the patio towards another building, Monica was puzzled, but she followed closely behind, looking at his back with a faint anticipation in her heart.
Different from the original target building, in the other buildings, there are obviously many fewer tricks, not only are there no small tricks in the outside at all, but the large tricks inside are also rare, and the two of them have enough space to safely remove the vitality shield state for repairs, so it is easy to bypass a few tricks and get to its basement space.
Holding fluorite through the basement space, bypassing large and small compartments, Monica even saw a few four-wheeled iron monsters along the way, and she couldn't help but be glad that these things were not contaminated, otherwise they would not be so easy to deal with if they were polluted and turned into phantom beasts.
But Babu didn't even look at the tin monsters, and although he obviously didn't know the way, and from time to time he walked into a dead end, but he always went in one direction.
"The basements of two conjoined buildings are often separated by extremely thick walls, which are so strong that they may not be able to be broken open in a few hours without being smashed with a giant hammer. Moreover, the shock and damage caused by hard smashing have caused great damage to the building, and now this kind of ruin is broken, and it is likely to collapse directly, and we will all be buried below and suffocated. โ
The two men finally stopped in front of a white wall, and there was no way ahead, but Babu was not in a hurry, and tapped along the white wall, talking as he tapped.
"Actually, this kind of wall, no, in fact, all the buildings, all the walls, have some special nodes."
The beating of the Bรกb stopped, and he pointed the iron drill at a point, lifted the stone and smashed it, the source energy was very useful, and the iron drill was stared into the wall more easily than expected, leaving a small hole in the air.
"These nodes are no different from other locations, and if they are destroyed, it will have no effect on the wall, after all, what impact can a small hole have on such a thick wall."
The same operation left several small holes in the wall.
"But if too many of these nodes are damaged, part of the wall becomes as fragile as paper, and even a slight impact can cause the wall to collapse, and the key is not to destroy the whole building."
As he spoke, there were a few more small holes, and I don't know if it was really effective or a coincidence, and the walls began to peel off dust.
"These things, how do you know?" Monica couldn't help it and asked in a low voice.
"I don't know how I know, but I just know." Babu pulled back the hammer again, and smiled a very scoundrel, "Do you accept this answer?" โ
"I ......" Monica's expression changed, and finally settled into a tacit smile, "Okay, I accept it." โ
"So." Babu jerked in the middle of several small holes, then turned around and made a gesture of please, "Welcome to this place where I don't know what it is, please come in." โ
The wall collapsed violently, revealing a large hole large enough for one person to walk through, and on the other side of the big hole, a thick red mist spread along the big hole like a fire scene.
The collapse of the wall and the red mist attracted the attention of the two men, and no one noticed that in the fog, there was a faint shadow that flickered away.
