Although criminal soldiers are used to explore paths, they still have basic survival guarantees.

Among the combat equipment that Sergeant Mars brought to Li Nuo, there was a respirator with a filter canister.

After putting this thing on your head, you can only observe the surrounding environment through two thick glass lenses, and you can also hear your own breathing, which can easily make people nervous.

Li Nuo had only seen this thing in war-themed or zombie-themed works before, and this was the first time he wore it...

To be honest, he was more curious about the undead than uneasy... at least so far.

This is a psychological state unique to time travellers.

——Because they have traveled through time and have the system around them, they take it for granted that they will survive and become legends.

Before they actually face the threat of death, they will approach their journey through life with a game-playing attitude.

Li Nuo thought he was cautious enough, far more cautious than ordinary time travellers, but in fact, deep down in his heart, he knew very well that he would save the day.

Therefore, when he stepped into the stairwell to the underground area, he felt a little slack in his heart due to his curiosity about undead creatures.

Soon, because of a little accident, he put away his inappropriate mentality, became completely serious, and took his first employment task seriously.

The surprise comes from an insidious undead creature.

It lurks on the walls of the stairwell.

It has the same appearance as an ordinary stone wall. No matter how you look at it, it looks like an ordinary stone brick.

But when Li Nuo, exuding the aura of biochemical bait, came about 10 meters away from this "stone brick", a black shadow flew out from the "stone brick".

At this moment, Li Nuo was completely powerless to resist.

With the help of the light of the coal lamp, he spotted the black shadow coming towards him, but because he had never received military training, he was unable to control his body in time and make dodge movements.

He saw it, but couldn't hide it. Li Nuo's eyebrows jumped sharply, as if he had foreseen the tragic situation of his head being pierced by a black shadow.

Fortunately, Sergeant Mars kept his promise and quickly responded to the black shadow, saving the slow-moving Li Nuo.

A bright yellow warhead was fired from a short-barreled rifle equipped with a silencer, and accurately landed on the "stone brick" that shot out a black shadow, exploding into blood flowers with purple-black sewage.

A large mass of black, filthy flesh fell from the wall, turning into a puddle of "mud" mixed with bone fragments and fur.

At the same time, the black shadow that was about to fall on the door in front of Li Nuo completed the entire process from Hardware to Microsoft, and then from Microsoft to Panasonic in just half a second, and landed on the ground with a clatter.

Li Nuo slowly exhaled the air that was held in his chest, and subconsciously raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead. Only then did he realize that the respirator mask was blocking his palms, and he could only let the beads of sweat slide down his cheeks...

"Thank you..." Li Nuo turned around and nodded to Sergeant Mars for his help.

Sergeant Mars responded with an almost imperceptible nod, deliberately cool.

He stepped forward, passed Li Nuo, picked up the dark shadow on the ground with the tip of his spear, and looked at it under the light of the coal lamp.

The true appearance of the black shadow came into Li Nuo's eyes following Sergeant Mars' movements.

It was a tentacle covered with tiny black hairs.

The tentacles are connected to the "mud" that fell on the ground, and the tip is a flower-shaped mouthpart with sharp teeth.

It is conceivable that if Sergeant Mars' shooting action had been delayed for one-third of a second, the mouthparts of the black-haired tentacles would have covered Li Nuo's face...

"What is this?" Li Nuo asked in a low voice.

Sergeant Mars shook his rifle and shook the black-haired tentacles to the ground. He glanced at Li Nuo and said:

"The Crypt Lurker, a low-level suture monster from the Necronomicon Cult, will disguise itself as stone bricks, hide on the wall, and wait for opportunities to launch sneak attacks. It smells the smell of biochemical bait, so it will attack you as soon as you step into it. Once within range, launch a sneak attack immediately.”

Sergeant Mars returned to the queue and chatted with a few other people for a while, but did not avoid the criminal soldiers.

Li Nuo stood aside silently and listened, gradually realizing how rich the combat experience of the imperial army was.

They actually deduced the general situation of the underground tomb just by relying on the corpse of an undead creature.

The corporal in the team said:

"The total length of the tentacles we encountered is about 3 meters, and the flagella on the tentacles are short and hard, about 6 mm in length... I judge that this is a mature crypt lurker with the ability to spread vertically. By."

Another soldier took out the layout of the tomb and placed it under the light of a coal lamp.

Sergeant Mars made several gestures on the map and expressed his speculation:

"The vertical movement speed of mature burrowers is 10 meters per second, and they can swim quickly in hard stone bricks and walls.

“It usually takes two months for the Lingshu to summon crypt lurkers of this level on a large scale.

"We are at a depth of two meters underground, and there is a vertical distance of about 100 meters from the tomb passage on the third underground level of the tomb.

"... Preliminary estimates indicate that there are a large number of undead creatures that have entered the mature stage in the tomb passages on the second and third underground floors. They have been there for at least two months."

"This is not good news."

"Yes... What's worse is that if you want to resurrect such a large-scale mature undead creature, you must have at least a level 2 spiritual hub."

Mars concluded his remarks:

"We need more information to lock down the exact level of the Lingshu. So move on, everyone, let us clear the way for the imperial army... for the glory of the empire!"

All the team members roared in response:

"For the glory of the empire."

The soldiers stopped communicating and turned their attention to Li Nuo.

Li Nuo wisely did not hesitate and slowly walked down the stairs at his feet.

This time he was much more serious, completely restrained his inappropriate emotions, and devoted himself to observing the surrounding environment.

As he walked, he suddenly discovered a little trick that cleverly used deconstruction.

When deconstruction is activated, the system will give the target object a name.

For example, the dark clouds in the sky at Tribulation Junction.

Li Nuo thought it was an ordinary cloud layer, but the system directly labeled it "abnormal" to remind the host that there was an abnormality in the cloud layer.

Li Nuo can take advantage of this to discover the crypt lurkers disguised as stone bricks in advance.

He walked along, throwing deconstruction techniques all the way, but did not use any energy to deconstruct, just getting the name of the target object from the system.

This method is very useful.

Within five minutes of encountering the first burrower, he discovered 6 sneaky burrowers using this method.

Although he knew the existence of the sneak attacker in advance, Li Nuo did not make any extraordinary move.

He didn't want to reveal his ability to detect crypt lurkers.

He did not take evasive measures in advance to avoid the crypt lurkers. Instead, at the moment when the crypt lurkers launched a sneak attack, he nimbly squatted down with his head in his hands, protecting his head and making room for the soldiers behind him to shoot.

Such a coward-like dodge action looks a bit embarrassing.

Li Nuo can't control so much anymore. His life is more important than his image and everything else.

You can't expect Sergeant Mars to hit the target every time. right?

The soldiers didn't say much. They gradually got used to this criminal soldier who would squat down with his head in his hands whenever there was any disturbance...

Sergeant Mars saw Li Nuo's actions and his eyes flickered.

People say that the scholars in City College are well-dressed and very respectable, but they are all very timid. When they encounter danger, they will stay in a daze, like fools.

Isn't Lenno Jarvis on his best behavior?

Hmm... Although the squatting action with your head in your hands is a bit silly, it's better than being in a daze.

Sergeant Mars nodded silently. Seeing that Li Nuo was so adaptable, he felt relieved. After all, the next investigation work will not be as simple as it is now.
