Chapter 93: The Disaster in Edo (9)

After hiding in the sewers, Jiang Mo no longer paid attention to the sound of battle coming from above his head and looked around.

There was a foul smell of filth everywhere, and although Jiang Mo could bear it, he was also moving forward cautiously.

Open the map to determine the general direction, and start heading towards the Sky Tower.

Many times, people will subconsciously ignore the filthy place of sewers.

In previous lives, there were disasters caused by this.

Jiang Mo touched the top of the young dragon's head and calmed its emotions.

Ever since entering the sewers, the young dragon has shown signs of impatience.

There seems to be something here that causes its disgust.

Or rather, it's more akin to a reaction to perceive danger.

It's a pity that Jiang Mo couldn't understand the roar of the young dragon, so he had to move forward carefully.

Along the way, he also began to find some clues.

Stopping and squatting down, Jiang Mo frowned.

Beneath the rubble was the same strange mold I had encountered before.

The mold here may be more strange than the mold outside, probably due to the different growth environment.

Not only does the whole body appear a deep blue, but it also emits a kind of blue shimmer, which looks like the whole body is dyed with blue fluorescent pigment.

Without touching it rashly, Jiang Mo slowly put down the gravel.

He had a special feeling that the truth of this apocalyptic copy was about to appear in front of him.

As we walked on, there was more and more blue mold around me.

In addition, Jiang Mo also felt that the temperature around him was also slightly higher than the previous place.

This made him more cautious.

It wasn't until he walked not far from the Sky Tower that Jiang Mo found the source of these molds at a corner of the sewer.

A huge wriggling cocoon!

Inside this hidden sewer, there are other monsters.

The surrounding walls were littered with rubble, as if some kind of monster had broken through the space.

Blue fluorescent mold covered the sewer, layering it into a blue cocoon.

The cocoon in the middle of the space is black and dotted with blue spots.

It seemed to be breathing, rising and shrinking in a rhythm.

The surrounding mold also followed its breath and spewed out specks of fluorescent spores.

The spores fall on the black cocoon, and most of them disappear, leaving only a small part on it.

[Monster Name: Alien Cocoon (Perfect)]

[Attribute: Ground/Light]

[Monster Level: 2nd Order 7 Stars]

[Race: Insect Race]

[HP: 18000]

[Skill 1: Growth (The growing alien cocoon can devour various energies in the environment to accelerate its own growth)]

[Skill 2: Alien Sensing Network (there is a special spiritual network between the Alien Cocoon and its kindred, which can sense the information of other kinds)]

[Skill 3: Harden Defense (When in danger, the shell of the Alien Cocoon will harden, greatly increasing its defense)]

[Synopsis: Some kind of insect egg from outer space landed in Tokyo with a meteorite.]

At the moment, this cocoon is in the process of evolution, and it will not be long before it breaks out of its shell. ….

And until then, no one knows exactly what it will evolve into. 】

[Possible rewards for killing: Doomsday Coins, XP, related cards, second-order crystals]

[Note: When you attack it, its people are already on their way]

Looking at the cocoon he saw, Jiang Mo frowned.

I clicked on the map information and looked at it carefully.

That's when I confirmed my guess.

The cocoon is not shown at all

On the map!

Knowing this truth, Jiang Mo thought of many possibilities.

How many more such cocoons are there?

What monsters will they hatch out?

Second or third order?

Although he had been mentally prepared, the sudden appearance of this information still poured cold water on him.

The situation is not encouraging.

Everything on the ground, those weak monsters, the strange disappearance of physical strength, and even the sky tower that has been wrapped in fog all the time, are all obstacles!

The real danger of this dungeon has been lurking beneath the surface all along.

If it weren't for the fact that he had stumbled into this place by mistake, I am afraid that Jiang Mo, like everyone else, would have regarded the Sky Tower in the Mist as the ultimate goal.

Imagine that by the time the quest is final, after countless battles, everyone gathers around Tokyo Tower.

But real monsters are pouring out of the ground from all directions.

Thinking about that scene, I feel a chill in my back.

At this time, Jiang Mo also understood the true meaning of the quest.

The quest has always referred to these cocoons hidden underground!

Otherwise, it is completely impossible to explain why the mission objectives of the quest quest cause the player such a severe sense of weakness.

Even at the end, you still need to kill other players in order to function properly.

This is unreasonable, at least not in accordance with the logic of the system's tasks.

And if the mission goal is these cocoons, then everything makes sense.

At first, the creature did not know how to infect a large number of normal creatures.

It could be the mold on the ground, or maybe something else that mutated it, and at the same time absorbed the energy in their body in some way.

These infected monsters are also judged by the system to be mission targets, which is somewhat misleading to players.

Players who kill monsters are unknowingly infected by mold, which is why they have that strong sense of weakness.

When a player infected with mold dies, the energy in the body dissipates along with the mold and is absorbed by other players, so the player's physical strength can be restored.

Deducing all this, Jiang Mo only felt that this copy was even more dangerous.

Because all these actions point to one answer: there is a highly intelligent Bo in this copy who directs all this in the shadows.

Looking at the insect cocoon's [Alien Sensing Network], Jiang Mo silently bypassed this place.

Races with shared spiritual networks tend to be involved in the whole body.

If it was okay when he was at the low level before, Jiang Mo still had the confidence to control the situation.

But now, even the cocoons have evolved to the second order.

To what extent the real adult worm would evolve, Jiang Mo couldn't even think about it.

Judging by the task from the very beginning.

These cocoons evolved from the first tier, and the number of cocoons depends on how many fish have slipped through the net while the player has completed the previous mission.

Jiang Mo thought he was quite cautious, but he was still deceived by the methods behind the scenes.

So how many others can find out the truth of all this?

Thinking of the bustling Tokyo in reality, Jiang Mo suddenly saw countless insect swarms descending.

Before the swarm, the lives of countless Sakura people dissipated and turned into white bones.

"Oh, that's not right!"

"It's Tokyo, and I'm feeling like a hammer!"

Suddenly reacting that the mission location was Tokyo, Jiang Mo's originally nervous mood instantly relaxed, and he even wanted to laugh a little.

"Take the money and run away"

I thought of my mission goals, and I thought of Tokyo, which was about to face the danger of destruction.

Jiang Mo's whole person walked briskly.

Fish-flavored hot and sour noodles

Acai continues!
