"Hey, there's a couple of big holes over there." Standing in front of the tentacles in the target building, Monica looked back at the passage that came and the direction of the entrance where others were waiting, and said in disbelief, "Can you really come here so peacefully?" And he actually walked all the way here without alarming the Roshan monsters inside? That's an exaggeration, isn't it? ”

"There are holes in any defense, and as long as you can find them and connect them together, no matter how tight the security system is, it's no different from an undefended open place." Babu explained casually, then pointed to a few holes, "As for these holes, they are one of the questions I want to ask you. I want to confirm again, this Roshan...... Is there really no sense of self? ”

"Did you find anything going on? Otherwise, I wouldn't have asked for no reason. Monica also frowned, shook her head and said, "Anyway, based on my experience over the years, and from my experience of communicating with the marginal travelers in the visiting caravan many times, it is the consensus that the marginal monsters have absolutely no self-awareness. ”

"That's weird, come on, you can try it too."

Not only did Babu not block the breath of life, but forcibly activated his own breath of life as he did when he first entered, making him as visible as a lighthouse on the sea in the middle of the night. But his location was indeed very accurate, and the current distance, even if the breath of life was so obvious, there was still no reaction from the Roshan inside.

Although she didn't know why, Monica still obediently learned Babu's movements and turned herself into a second lighthouse, and the result was exactly the same as Babu's, and in this position, Roshan inside couldn't sense their presence at all.

"Huh? That's not right. Monica suddenly reacted, compared her position, pointed to the big holes, and said, "These holes are drilled out of them?" If this is a safe range, why do they suddenly drill out? ”

"That's one of the reasons why I'm saying something is wrong." Babu explained, "Do you remember when I mentioned the evil thoughts before, at that time, we estimated that it was the malice of the Illusory World Pollution itself, but I thought about it carefully just now, no, if it is the malice of the Illusory World Pollution itself, then it should continue to be sensed, I see I have only sensed it a few times, and each time it is only a short moment and it disappears." This is clearly the manifestation of something that has initiative. ”

"Uh-huh......" Monica bit her lip and thought for a moment, "you go on, you just said 'one', what about two." ”

"The other thing is that I sensed evil thoughts again just now, and then, well, there are a few more big holes."

"Wait, I remember you said that the last time you were inside, it was also ......"

"Yes." Babu affirmed, "Both times I was attacked by Roshan immediately after the evil thoughts. In the previous life, when I sensed the same evil thoughts on the two occasions in this life, I wondered if the abnormal edge oscillation was related to this thing. ”

"Evil thoughts mean it's already on target, followed by a follow-up attack?" Monica hesitated for a moment, but still shook her head and said, "It's beyond my knowledge, I can't give you an answer." Your guess has upended my experience and will make the follow-up more cumbersome, and I hate to admit that your guess is right, but I have to guard against it. ”

"yes, I have to guard against it." Babu smiled wryly, beckoned to her, and turned to walk towards the hole, "Come, let's take a look first." ”

"Huh? Or do you want to go in? ”

"It's okay, I've already gone in and turned around, there are few of us, and the detour is more flexible, and the danger is not great."

The two shielded themselves from the breath of life and cautiously slipped through the hole and entered the building.

The interior was still dim, only a faint light penetrated through the hole, barely illuminating the interior of the building a hazy blood red, a large number of fleshy tentacles snaking along the walls, blood and slime dripping from time to time on the surface of the tentacles covered with blood vessels, making a ticking sound in the darkness.

Shielded from the breath, the two could not communicate for the time being, Monica could only follow Babu, and the two of them held a fluorite and walked slowly in the dark. The hallway was littered with swollen sarcomas and lumps of flesh, bursting open from time to time, splattering clumps of blood-stained liquid, with the occasional strip of flesh dangling from the roof, propelled by the surrounding splattered liquid, dangling in the air.

The two of them carefully dodged the disgusting and ugly monsters around them, so as not to expose the vitality they had shielded themselves from direct contact, but there were too many fleshy structures around, and from time to time thin tentacles came out of some small holes in the wall, squirming and passing by the two, these obstacles severely limited the speed of the two, and at the same time, they had to guard against the possible active attack, so that they had to spend a lot of time on the road.

Fortunately, although there were many pieces of meat in the main part, the number of third-order monsters wandering around was significantly reduced, and the two of them barely encountered a few in the building, and along some of the gaps that had been destroyed by Roshan itself, the two went all the way deeper, gradually approaching the basement where they first encountered it, throwing a few fluorites from the destroyed walls, and then looking in......

The red mist that represents the pollution of the illusory world is actually much thinner, and the existing red mist is mainly concentrated around the surface of Roshan's body, which greatly improves the visibility of the basement, and you can see the inside from the entrance of the cave.

Roshan is still entrenched in the center of the basement, and the node in Babu's induction is hidden under Roshan, and the two high-energy reactions are particularly obvious in perception. However, Roshan's body has shrunk a lot for some reason, and countless tentacles have grown from the surface of the body, and these tentacles have been extended to the surrounding walls, tightly glued to the walls, and built into a dense three-dimensional tentacle network, completely sealing the entire basement, not to mention bypassing it to approach the node, and even entering the basement to get close to its body is no longer possible.

Monica and Babu looked at each other, her face became a little helpless, she nodded at Babu, and the two of them acted at the same time, quietly retreating the same way.

"It seems that the cannon fodder has indeed worked, and both the third-order monster and its body have shrunk significantly." Retreating to the safe area, the two gasped for a while, and Monica said in a dry voice, "The problem is that this is more troublesome now, it seals the basement, and it is difficult to directly attack its body." That's what you said you wanted to show me? ”

"Yes, and I'd like to ask, has this been the case with you before?" Babu circled around and made sure there was no threat nearby before asking, "Like it was ten years ago?" There is such a mountain of Roshan that is tightly blocked, and it is impossible to directly clean up the nodes? ”

"Ah, you probably misunderstood." Monica was stunned, smiled and shook her head, "It's also strange that I didn't make it clear, this thing is actually a part of the node, it is extended from the node, and cleaning it itself is cleaning up the node, or cleaning it up is equivalent to eliminating the node." ”

"Huh? Are you sure? Babu's expression tightened, "Are they actually one?" ”

"Of course, I'm still sure of that." Monica explained, "The nodes are actually formed by the embodiment of polluted energy, and the high-level monsters formed in this way will inevitably follow the principle of repulsion of the same poles, and if they were so close, one would have been swallowed and assimilated long ago." ”

"That's just as well." Babu was silent for a moment thoughtfully before he said, "First of all, whether it's one or two, how did you plan to solve it?" I guess there is a predetermined plan. ”

"If you weren't there, my original plan was for Eve, the short girl, to let her lay an enchantment on the periphery of Roshan to prevent Roshan from replenishing polluting energy from the outside world, and then everyone would fight a war of attrition and start cleaning up from the periphery little by little." Monica explained, "Actually, this is the most common method, but it is stupid, it consumes a lot and is dangerous, and it is easy to suffer from battle damage if you are too tired in the later stage. ”

"But now that you are here, since you said that you can take everyone deep into the position closest to Roshan, the plan will naturally change. I originally planned to rely on the building to establish a defensive position at the limit of what you can go, and you, Winter, and Eve will clear the third-order trick that has been defended back, and the other four of us will directly attack Roshan's main body and defeat it as quickly as possible. ”

"But it's very difficult to do now, the situation inside is too complicated, and we don't dare to go in at all, which means that Roshan uses this building as a shell to protect it, so that we can't directly attack its body. How, listen to you, what good advice do you have? ”

"Well, the problem now is that the building that was originally intended to be used as a defensive base to protect our own has instead become a protective shell for Roshan, and we not only can't touch it, but we are also in a situation where we are passively beaten by the enemy on our backs. If that's the case, it's better to start a war of attrition from the start, as you originally thought. Babu smiled strangely, squinting at the building in front of him and said, "In that case, isn't it enough to let the obstacles disappear in advance?" ”

"Huh?"

"If you can't touch him now, then take the initiative to push down its protective shell and expose its body directly, so that you can't touch it." Babu pointed to the surrounding buildings, "If we want to defend the base, we can use the other buildings next to it, and we don't have to worry about being besieged by the enemy." ”

"You're not kidding." Monica looked at the building, then at Babu, and said in disbelief, "A building of this size, even if the seven of us let go of our hands and attack with all our might, it will take several hours or even a day or two to demolish it, you can really ......"

"Tsk, as long as you find the right place and give me the right amount of explosives, even the bank vault can be destroyed, not to mention that it's just a building."

"What is a bank?"

"I don't know how that word came to my head." Babu patted his head and didn't pay much attention to it, "How about it, do you want to try the big scene?" ”

"Okay, fry."
