Powder day is here.
A low roar like an earth dragon turning over came from deep underground, like countless wild horses running wildly on the cliff of the Great Crack.
With an explosion that broke through the cage, overwhelming black metal powder spurted out from the large crack.
They turned into dozens of black smoke pillars more than ten meters wide and rushed high into the sky, directly hitting the blue sky and the two suns, one large and one small.
The rising momentum of the black smoke column quickly weakened, drawing arcs in the air and falling in parabolic shapes to various sectors of the downtown area.
The powder collection device that had been waiting on the ground opened its trumpet-shaped collector and turned on its full power to absorb the universal metal powder falling from the sky with maximum power.
Suddenly, hundreds of swirling black clouds appeared around the large crack, and countless large and dense powder blocks were sucked away by the powder collecting device.
The light metal powder floated in the wind, flew to all parts of the downtown area, and then slowly sank under the influence of gravity.
There are more alchemy devices spraying aerosol in the streets and alleys.
When water mist and metal powder meet, they help each other quickly condense into black sewage, reducing air pollution.
Sewage rich in all-purpose metal powder slipped from the eaves and walls, flowed in gutters on the ground, and entered underground sewers.
The members of the extraordinary forces who had been waiting on the first and second underground floors had an exciting moment.
If you guard the underground waterways in your respective sectors and prevent hostile forces from coming to destroy them, you will be rewarded by your faction.
At the end of the dusting day, the personnel involved in guarding the waterways will receive rewards based on the amount of metal powder collected from the water storage devices in the underground waterways.
Such generous rewards attract all those who are eager to make a lot of money.
In the Iron Thorn Shield Security Company, all security team members who wanted to accumulate wealth in a short period of time volunteered to participate in the task of guarding the first and second underground floors.
At this time, in the underground sewer area of Sector 7, Conte and Mark led a team respectively to guard the second and first underground floors.
On the third underground floor, only Li Nuo was guarding here.
Carrying a backpack with additional folding space, he wandered around the stairwell entrances, placing inconspicuous metal boxes in the nooks and crannies.
Every time he puts down a metal box, he will take out gravel and sand from the folding space and spread it on these metal boxes, disguising them as a pile of useless sand and gravel.
On the third underground floor, there are a total of six stairwells leading to the fourth and second underground floors. Each stairwell entrance has a metal gate.
There are two passage entrances to sectors 6 and 8 next door, and there are also metal gates.
There are a total of eight metal gates that need to be defended by Li Nuo.
Li Nuo placed two alchemy traps next to each metal gate. This was already the limit of his productivity.
Last night and the whole day today, he was frantically making self-developed alchemy products, which almost broke his waist.
After setting up the last boxed alchemy trap, Li Nuo punched his waist and stood up, breathing a long sigh of relief.
After mastering the knowledge and skills, it is not difficult to create this kind of alchemical trap with its own energy storage array that can emit elemental energy rays and alchemical mist.
Deconstruction plays an important role in this process.
After Li Nuo makes the semi-finished product of the alchemy trap, he can know the final yield rate of the semi-finished product as long as he throws the deconstruction spell.
By adjusting the semi-finished product based on the deconstruction results, the yield rate can be increased, and a high-quality alchemical trap can finally be produced with a 100% success rate.
Cindy asked him to help guard the three underground floors, gave him 100,000 aggregate coins as activity funds, and agreed to pay an equal amount of remuneration after the dusting day.
Li Nuo did not deduct any activity funds, and used them all to buy alchemy materials.
That’s how these 16 alchemical traps come about.
They are enough to stop the blind gang gunmen. As for the gang's alchemists, leave it to Counter and the others upstairs to deal with them.
Li Nuo looked around, nodded with satisfaction, stretched out his hand to put on the hood of the alchemy cloak, and activated the alchemy runes in the cloak.
"Swift Rune" uses wind element energy to speed up movement, increasing the speed by about 30%.
As soon as the rune was activated, his body became lighter and the backpack on his body was no longer heavy.
Li Nuo got used to the effect of the runes, pushed open the stairwell gate, and entered the fourth underground floor.
There was a fishy smell of aberrations in the air, and the walls were covered with slime nets.
Li Nuo wore a breathing mask, looked around, and called up his spell list.
During the previous battle with Kodar, he harmlessly deconstructed the "Ten Commandments of Martyrdom: General Outline" on the spot and obtained two death magic spells.
One is the extremely lethal high-level death magic "Evil Explosion".
The other one was the "breath of the dead" that he didn't have time to check at the time:
Consume 0.1 soul strength point and 1 energy point to disguise yourself as the dead for the next hour. It loses vital signs such as heartbeat, body temperature, and breathing, exudes a faint corpse odor, and turns into a walking corpse with gray-white skin. Upgrading will increase the strength of the camouflage.
After Li Nuo cast the "Breath of the Dead", a cold touch came from his skin, passed through the muscles and fat, and directly acted on the bones and soul.
"Is this what it feels like to be dead?"
Li Nuo shook his white hands.
He could feel the strength of his muscles, but there was always a sense of powerlessness lingering in his heart, as if his body was a piece of wood without feeling.
"The vital signs erased by the 'breath of the dead' seem to include my sense of touch, smell, and pain. The stench of the aberrations I smell is now weaker, and even the feedback of punching the wall is much weaker. "
Li Nuo took out the dagger, took off his gloves, and lightly scratched his fingertips.
Looking at the small scratch with blood seeping out, Li Nuo suddenly realized that this "breath of the dead" was much more useful than expected!
His current pain sensation is only about 50% of what it was before.
Li Nuo brought up the spell panel and invested 100 energy points into "Breath of the Dead" to upgrade it to level 5.
I used a small knife on my fingertip again, and the pain was greatly reduced, only 10% of the normal level.
This will undoubtedly help him avoid the interference of pain and keep a clear mind during the battle.
Li Nuo took some medical dressing and applied it on his fingertips, put on his gloves and held the dagger.
He cut open the slime web and walked quickly through the corridor according to the map in his mind.
Within a moment, he found the stairwell to the next floor and entered the darker and more depressing fifth underground floor.
The aberrations along the way turned a deaf ear to him, treating him as a walking corpse. Even if he stood eye to eye, the aberration would not look at him seriously.
Li Nuo activated "Tracking the Living" and tried to walk around the elite monsters among the aberrations.
The Sower is one of the most common elite monsters.
It is level 15 and can be regarded as a game monster with an elite template. Its strength is higher than that of a folk first-level alchemist, but lower than Tatis' first-level "Imperial Fist".
It has an eight-legged aberration, crawling on the ground like a turtle, with fleshy mushrooms with tentacles hanging from its back. It is good at using tentacles and venom to attack.
Its tentacles can be extended quickly and are as flexible as a snake's body, capable of severing a human thigh in an instant. After the flagella on the tentacles harden, they become like the steel needle of a syringe, which can easily penetrate the alchemy weapon of a first-level alchemist and inject venom into the target's body.
The Impaler is a level 16 aberration elite monster.
It looks similar to a giant python and can burrow into walls and construct tunnels made of slime blankets.
Normally, it would lurk inside the wall. After discovering an enemy, it would come out of the hole in the wall and spray a column of venom that would corrode ordinary armor plates. If you want to kill them, you must find the impaler's heart hidden in the wall, which is very difficult to deal with.
The Devourer is a level 18 aberration elite monster.
It has four forelimbs, two thick hind limbs and a fleshy tail. Its appearance is similar to that of a velociraptor, and its body length exceeds 5 meters. The main attack methods include spitting slime bombs and stretching the neck and limbs to attack the enemy. The horns on its head are extremely sharp and can easily penetrate the defense of first-order alchemy weapons. The movement is extremely fast and the strength is ferocious.
Sower, Impaler and Devourer were the most elite mutant monsters that Li Nuo encountered along the way.
Li Nuo turned on the "breath of the dead", which was equivalent to entering a "stealth state" in the eyes of the aberrant body.
Aberrant elite monsters are equivalent to patrol monsters with the "see through disguise" effect.
Li Nuo shuttled through the corridors, and gradually found the feeling of playing in Shankou Mountain, opening a rogue trumpet, and using the "stealth" skill to open treasure chests in dungeons such as Coilya Reservoir and the upper and lower levels of Black Stone.
The same sneakiness, the same need to avoid aberrations with "anti-submarine" effects.
…
…
"Phew~ Finally arrived at the 10th floor underground."
Li Nuo stopped in the murky corridor.
Looking around, the scene here is the same, dark, full of aberration slime, and there is the smooth sound of aberrations walking in the air.
The Demonized Rat Lair is located on the 11th to 15th floors underground in Sector 8, and its entrance is on the 10th floor of Sector 8 underground.
Li Nuo's current location is the 10th underground floor of Sector 7.
Since there is no sage space worth developing here in Sector 7, this place is completely uninhabited. Only the alchemists from the Black City with evil intentions come here to hang out.
Li Nuo moved silently in the corridor on the 10th floor underground and quickly found the metal gate to Sector 8.
Use a dagger to scrape the slime on the door latch, unlock the mechanical lock, hold the door handle, and slowly open the heavy gate.
A faint light came from the corridor behind the door, slipped through the crack of the door, and shot into Li Nuo's eyes.
Li Nuo narrowed his eyes and looked at the source of the light.
They were alchemy lamps hanging on the corridor wall, and the energy storage array in the lamp holder was full of energy.
Unlike the corridor he was in at this time, the underground 10th floor of Sector 8 was brightly lit. Except for blood stains and dried mucus, there are no aberrations at all on the ground.
In order to eliminate the harassment of aberrations and focus on hunting demonized rats, the Cat Club has cleaned up the aberrations on the 10th floor underground in Sector 8 and has placed personnel on duty for a long time.
After the Black Bone Hermit drove away the people from the Cat Society, he took over and guarded this place.
The Black Bone Hermit tried his best to maintain the original state and did not move the aberrations here.
This shows that their purpose is also to develop the alchemical resources for the demonized mouse lair, rather than simply targeting the Cat Club. The existence of aberrations would affect the Black Bone Hermits' collection of resources, so they did not spread aberrations here.
These are Li Nuo's speculations.
He found some evidence to support his judgment.
For example, there are alchemical insects arranged on the wall.
The bell ladybug responsible for reconnaissance, the offensive alchemy bug responsible for sneak attacks, etc. These are the tools used by the Black Bone Hermit to prevent attacks.
The moment Li Nuo opened the gate, the alchemy insects lying on the wall had already discovered his presence.
The alchemy bug should have raised an alarm, but unfortunately, Li Nuo is not a living person, an alchemist, or an aberration now.
He is now a "dead man".
Obviously, the Black Bone Hermit did not give his little darlings the order to monitor the "dead people".
Therefore, Li Nuo's arrival did not alarm these alchemy insects.
Li Nuo closed some door panels, leaving only a slightly invisible crack.
His eyes passed through the crack in the door and stared at the corridor behind it.
"Come for a patrol of alchemy slaves. Just one will be enough. Don't bring too many...and don't let the Black Bone Hermit appear, otherwise I will have to adopt a backup plan."
Perhaps hearing his prayer, a faint sound of footsteps came from a distance.
"Click, click"
The pace of the visitors was rather chaotic, sometimes fast and sometimes slow.
The man was drinking while walking.
"Gulu gulu, ah~ It feels so good~ The ale on the ground is much better than the one in the Black City~ Fortunately, I was smart enough to seize the opportunity to patrol the 10th floor underground. Otherwise, where would I have gotten this treasure~"
"Gulu gulu~burp~"
An alchemy slave with a mechanical arm implanted on his back and wearing round goggles came into view.
This guy is bald and has buck teeth.
He wore a dirty unbuttoned jacket, exposing his chest and belly covered in scars and sutures, with liquid hoses inserted into various parts of his body.
He was swaying, his center of gravity was unstable, holding a bottle of ale in each hand, and barely controlling the mechanical arm on his back to stabilize the wall.
He was walking, drinking, and burping, completely unaware of the eyes peering at him.
Li Nuo quietly pushed the door panel open and listened carefully to the movement behind the door.
The alchemy slave came to the metal gate, banged on the door panel with a mechanical arm, and briefly checked whether the gate was closed.
Li Nuo grabbed the door latch, held the door panel against it, and stabilized the metal gate.
After confirming that the door panel was motionless, the alchemist slave turned and left with a burp of wine, leaving his back to the metal gate.
Li Nuo opened the door silently, held the alchemy crossbow in his hand, and pointed it at the alchemy slave who had his back turned to him.
The mechanical arm on the Alchemy Servant's back was roughly implanted into the body and connected to the Alchemy Servant's spine. Where the arm meets the skin, there is a piece of earthworm-like rotten flesh and a large amount of black blood.
If ordinary people were treated like this, they would faint from the pain.
But the Alchemy Servant will not.
The Black City Alchemist deprived them of their sense of pain, all sense of pain.
"Hey~"
Amidst the faint sound of breaking through the air, a cold light shot towards the back of the alchemist slave's neck.
"Hmm? It's so itchy~" the alchemist slave muttered, stretched out his hand to grab his neck, and scratched it several times.
His hands felt wet.
I pulled my hand back and saw it was red.
"I'm injured?"
The alchemical slave fell to the ground in confusion, and soon died of arterial hemorrhage.
There was no pain, and naturally there was no cry of pain.
There was no cry of pain, and there was no alarm.
In silence, Li Nuo used the alchemy hand crossbow to shoot a short crossbow arrow and got the first drop of blood in this mission.
[System message: You killed "Alchemy Servant Gujia". 】
[Passive deconstruction activates! 】
[Since you have unlocked the standard panel of "Alchemy Servant", you did not get the energy reward for this passive deconstruction. 】
[The results of passive deconstruction are as follows:]
【1. The personalized panel of "Alchemy Servant Gujia". 】
【2. Target recent important memories. 】
Li Nuo did not check the deconstruction content for the time being.
He added a "cleaning rune" to the arrowhead of the flechette to collect the blood.
From beginning to end, not a drop of blood was spilled in the corridor, eliminating the need to clean up the battlefield.
Li Nuo stepped into the corridor of Sector 8, came to the alchemist slave Gujia, and inserted a "pure domino" into the wound on the back of his head.
Apply medical dressing to stop the bleeding, then wrap the wound with a dirty strip of cloth, disguised as a scarf.
Li Nuo completely covered up Gujia's injury.
He took out the alchemical potion used to dispel the demonized rats and poured it evenly on Gu Jia.
The smell of the potion evaporated quickly, and soon turned into a layer of odorless white frost that stuck to Gu Jia's skin. It looked like plaster rubbed from the wall, which was extremely inconspicuous.
Li Nuo waved his hand to disperse the smell of the potion, took out a few "pure dominoes" from the "Xue Na Space", stuffed them into Gu Jia's pocket and hid them.
Finally, he erased all traces of himself and retreated to the corridor of Sector 7.
Li Nuo closed the metal gate, leaned against the door panel, and used "pure bone fragments" to cast the "Death Technique" on the alchemy slave.
The existence of "death spell" cannot prevent the corpse from decaying. Alchemy potions that can prevent corruption have a distinct smell, so Li Nuo naturally did not apply antiseptic potion to Gu Jia.
Within half an hour at most, the dead Gujia will emit a peculiar smell, alerting the black-bone hermit.
Li Nuo had to hurry up.
While he controlled the deceased Gujia to stand up from the ground, he flipped through the opponent's memory fragments.
From the memory screen, Li Nuo identified other alchemy slaves and the black-bone hermits in charge of these alchemy slaves.
There is a memory that makes Li Nuo pay more attention to it.
On the memory screen:
Gu Jia and several alchemy slaves were busy at the alchemy furnace, preparing food and drink for the two black-bone hermits.
One of the black-bone hermits has bronze skin, a thin appearance, severely sunken cheeks, and no mask on his face.
Another black-bone hermit wears a black crow mask, and his black alchemy robe has more patterns. There is a bone ring with a crow and bird wing pattern on his finger, which looks like he has a higher status.
"Lord Child Crow, I received news from Zikmando last night." The black-bone hermit without a mask said to the man wearing a crow mask:
"He said that the elemental judge, without telling him, found another death wizard to help. Fortunately, he discovered it in time and drove him away. Among the elemental judge team that will come to trouble us today, he is the only one with a death spell. The wizard is here, there is no one else. I have repeatedly confirmed with him that the elemental trial team will have one second-level wizard, four first-level wizards and dozens of armed members from the Cat Society Security Company."
"Um."
The black-bone hermit known as the Child Crow snorted lightly and said:
"Kodaman, has the alchemy bomb in the demonized rat's lair been planted?"
"Yes, sir." The black-bone hermit named Kodaman said respectfully:
"As long as the people in the elemental trial are led to the pressure pedal by Zikmando, the alchemical bomb on the ceiling of the lair will detonate. Even if the people in the elemental trial are not killed on the spot, they will fall into the lair due to the collapse of the floor and be killed below. Trap space strangulation. Don't worry, I have checked it myself. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the alchemy bomb and the pressure pedal."
"Very good, Kodaman, you did a good job." Zhiyao stood up without even looking at the food brought to the table by the alchemist slave.
He put his hands behind his back and said as he walked out of the memory screen:
"I'll leave everything here to you, Kodaman. As soon as the elemental judge dies, take Zikmando and come to me on the 13th floor underground. We'll take as much as we can from those who dare to trample on the face of the elemental judge." .”
"Yes, sir." Kodaman stood up, bent down and respectfully sent the child crow away.
This memory fragment ends here.
It is one of the most important episodes in Guga's recent memory. Others are scenes of eating, drinking, belly patting, peeing, etc.
After Li Nuo read this memory, his heart suddenly became clear.
That Jackmando is definitely a sinister man. He actually teamed up with the Black Bone Hermit to deceive the female cat.
Can't bear it.
Whether it was because of his cooperative relationship with the Elemental Trial or the beauty of the female cat, Li Nuo decided to severely dismantle the Black Bone Hermit.
Li Nuo was thinking about countermeasures in his mind, while distractedly paying attention to the perspective of the deceased Gujia.
There is a large open space at the intersection of corridors on the 10th floor underground in Sector 8.
There are alchemy stoves, hammocks and simple alchemy tables placed here, which is exactly the place Li Nuo saw in the memory picture.
This place was originally a temporary camp set up by the Cat Society, but now it has been occupied by the Black Bone Hermits.
Next to the alchemy table in the temporary camp, there is an alchemy slave sharpening a knife.
He saw Gujia staggering over and shouted:
"Gujia, why did you come back? Master Kodaman took a few people to go to the women who were guarding the Elemental Trial near the pressure pedal. He asked you to stay here after the patrol and don't go anywhere. You are so drunk. , if it ruins things later, don’t blame me for telling Master Kodaman!”
Gujia looked like he was drunk, his expression was numb, his eyes were blurred, and his head and face were covered with dirt.
He raised his hand, waved it wildly a few times, and threw the unopened ale bottle in his left hand.
The alchemist slave sharpening the knife caught the wine bottle and quickly poured a full mouthful into his mouth, grinning with the wine in the corner of his mouth:
"You're a smart kid!"
Gujia waved his hand in response and walked around the alchemy platform without saying a word, walked through the simple camp and walked into another corridor.
The alchemy slave sharpening the knife only focused on drinking and didn't pay attention to Gu Jia's actions.
After about a minute of walking under the light of the alchemy lamp, a large black hole appeared on the floor in front of Gujia.
The hole cut off the entire corridor and blocked the way.
It is connected to a corridor and extends diagonally downward.
There are mud, feces and messy mud footprints in the corridor. This is the underground tunnel leading to the demonized rat's lair, filled with a thick and persistent stench.
Without saying a word, Gujia jumped into the hole and walked into the dark corridor.
From this, he stepped into a resource-based sage space.
In addition to the odor and floating dust, there are also floc-like lines of energy in the air.
They were like willows blown by the wind, slowly squirming in mid-air.
These lines of energy cannot be touched or controlled, and come in different colors.
They are an important basis for distinguishing between nature and the space of sages.
Anyone who encounters such energy lines that can be seen and felt but cannot be touched means entering the sage space where sage particles unfold.
In terms of book knowledge, these energy lines are defined as the three-dimensional magic array patterns in the sage's space.
If the sage's space is properly maintained, the three-dimensional magic array will always be in a stable state and the lines of the magic array will not be exposed.
After years of disrepair, the sage's space becomes unstable, and the three-dimensional magic array gradually loses control, and visible magic array lines will appear in the space.
In the entire Sage Space, the place with the densest energy lines is where the Sage Lock is located.
Whoever can control the Sage Lock can control the three-dimensional magic array in the Sage Space, and then control the Sage Space like a puppet with silk threads. At that time, it all depends on the personal wishes of the controller whether to close up the sage space and turn it into sage particles and take it away, or to transform this space.
Li Nuo's original plan was not to go deep into the demonized rat's lair.
He controlled the dead Gujia to enter the 10th underground floor of Sector 8 in order to open the doors of several other corridors so that the aberrations could smell the smell of living people and enter Sector 8.
When the scene becomes chaotic and enough corpses appear, Li Nuo will ask Gu Jia to insert "pure dominoes" into the corpses. Li Nuo cast the "Death Technique" on these corpses with dominoes from the air, controlled them to surround the lone Jackmando, and waited for an opportunity to launch the "Evil Explosion Technique" to kill the opponent instantly.
As long as there are no witnesses, it is relatively safe.
There is only one place that is worse.
When the "Evil Explosion Technique" detonates, Li Nuo must maintain the "Death Technique". He will bear the severe pain of the explosion of the deceased.
Li Nuo prepared an alchemical potion to relieve pain.
Now, this plan may have to change.
Because Li Nuo found the alchemy bombs arranged by the Black Bone Hermit, and they were near the entrance of the lair.
On the first floor of the demonized mouse lair, Gujia was surrounded by a circle of demonized mice the size of a washbasin. They were densely packed and chattering like countless piranhas waiting to eat.
The front teeth of these demonic rats are as wide as the palm of your hand. They wandered around Gujia, coveting the meat on his body and fearing the smell of alchemy potion emitted by him.
The alchemy bomb is right on top of Gu Jia's head and can be touched by raising his hand.
They are located in the southeast corner of the first floor of the Demonized Rat Lair, corresponding to the 11th underground floor of Sector 8.
They are fixed to the ceiling of the lair by hooks and connected to the floor of the 10th floor of Sector 8 by several silk threads.
The floor connected to the bomb had been transformed by the Bone Hermit, turning it into a pressure pedal that would pull the thread when stepped on.
After the Elemental Trial team reaches the 10th floor from the stairwell on the 9th floor underground, the bomb will detonate once they step on the pressure pedal floor.
They will fall into the demonized rat's lair, falling into the trap space directly below.
In just 0.1 seconds, the trap space, which was originally a piece of dirt, will be filled with high-voltage lightning, poisonous mist and metal spikes.
The specifications of the trap space are designed to deal with high-level alchemists and powerful aberrations. Its power is so powerful that it is more than enough to instantly kill the Elemental Judgment team.
The four alchemy bombs controlled by pressure pedals are not simple either.
They are alchemical products classified as controlled products by the Alchemical Temple.
Although each one is only the size of a fist, it is about as powerful as 50 kilograms of high explosives.
Once detonated, they release a tsunami-like impact and a huge amount of sharp fragments.
This explosion can not only destroy the ceiling of the first floor of the mouse lair, but also penetrate the floor of the first floor of the lair, exposing the trap space on the second floor of the lair.
Li Nuo controlled Gu Jia to cut four silk threads and remove the four bombs from the hooks.
In this way, the pressure pedal cannot twitch the thread and remove the safety of the alchemy bomb.
The Meowth of Elemental Trial can dance on the pressure pedal without detonating a bomb.
Li Nuo controlled the deceased Gujia, picked up the alchemy bomb, and returned to the temporary camp at the intersection of the corridors.
The deceased Gujia was on standby behind the corner, monitoring the situation in the temporary camp.
After Li Nuo confirmed that there were no more people in the camp, he pushed open the metal gate and quietly reached the vicinity of the camp.
The alchemy slave who was staying by the alchemy table had just poured the last sip of ale into his mouth when he was killed by the silent short crossbow arrow.
Li Nuo disposed of the corpse, wiped away the smell of blood, and used the "death technique" to turn it into his own dead.
He took away all the dominoes from Gujia and carefully picked up the alchemy bomb in Gujia's arms.
He fixed the alchemy bomb to Gujia's body and used silk thread to connect the bomb's safety to Gujia's finger.
A self-destructive person appears here.
Li Nuo erased his traces as quickly as possible and hid back on the 10th underground floor of Sector 7.
He controlled Gujia, the dead man carrying the alchemy bomb, to walk towards the direction of the pressure pedal. Another alchemical slave, the Dead, followed behind Guga, the Dead.
Li Nuo tried his best to keep the footsteps of the two dead men as light as possible to avoid making any noise.
After a while, several sneaky figures appeared in the sight of the deceased Gujia.
A black-bone hermit named Codaman and several alchemy slaves with enhanced combat capabilities were guarding the entrance to the corridor ahead.
About 50 meters in front of these people is the pressure pedal.
Further ahead is a stairwell leading from the 9th underground floor to the 10th floor.
The Black Bone Hermits destroyed other stairwells in advance, leaving only this one.
The Elemental Trial team can only enter the 10th underground floor through this stairwell.
Or, they can only use a bomb to blow a hole in the floor of the 9th floor underground like the Bone Hermit, and take an unconventional route to enter the 10th floor underground from an unexpected place.
"Boom~"
Li Nuo suddenly opened his eyes, looking a little stunned.
He was one hundred percent sure he heard an explosion.
The floor shaking slightly underfoot also proved that an explosion had just occurred.
No way? No way? The Mewman of Elemental Trial actually blasted the floor of the 9th floor underground?
"Oh ho~ I didn't expect that Filia and the others didn't step into the trap stupidly."
Li Nuo felt happy, closed his eyes, and concentrated on controlling his dead body.
From the perspective of the deceased Gujia at this time, gray dust blew in from behind, carrying a large amount of gravel and crackling on the wall.
The Elemental Judgment team did blast through the floors of the 9th underground floor.
Many centipede-like cracks appeared on the ceiling of the temporary camp on the 10th floor underground. Large fragments of stone tiles were sliding from the ceiling and falling to the floor.
As long as one or two ordinary alchemy bombs are used, the barrier between the 9th and 10th underground floors will be opened.
"Damn it! These insidious bitches didn't take the stairwell!"
The black-bone hermit Kodaman suddenly turned his head and saw the shattered ceiling and two alchemy slaves speeding towards him.
The deceased Gujia opened his right arm and made a hug gesture, as if he couldn't help but feel happy to meet an old friend, and hugged Kodaman. The other dead man swooped down, leaped two meters in the air, and hugged Kodaman's legs with both arms, not giving him a chance to move.
Without waiting for Codaman and the alchemy slave next to him to react, the deceased Gujia forcefully raised his left arm hanging by his side.
The four fiber threads suddenly stretched straight, and the safety of the alchemy bomb was pulled out at the same time.
"boom!!!"
Before Codaman and the alchemy slave could figure out the situation, they were swallowed up by the huge fire!
These four alchemy bombs were indeed pipe products, and their impact directly triggered a long-lasting small-scale earthquake.
The stone bricks around the center of the explosion were all cracked, and dense fragments and bullet holes appeared instantly. Big holes were blown into the floor and ceiling, with sand and gravel falling and debris flying.
Li Nuo held on to the door panel and opened his eyes on the trembling floor.
He covered his head, frowning, and a look of pain appeared on his face.
He took a deep breath and quickly recovered from the backlash of "Soul Link".
"Hey. Don't mention it, the "Breath of the Dead" is so effective at suppressing pain. It can even suppress the pain of death transmitted by "Soul Link". The pain level this time was far less than the time when the Crypt Lurker was crushed by Murphy Ya. It seems that I will have to turn on the "Breath of the Dead" in the future to welcome the death of the "Soul Link" target. "
Li Nuo wiped the sweat from his forehead, glanced at the system messages in his mind, and smiled.
A first-level black bone hermit plus six alchemy slaves, a total of seven enemies, have now been killed by the alchemy bomb.
Since the standard panels of "First-Level Black Bone Hermit" and "Alchemy Servant" have been unlocked, Li Nuo did not receive the energy reward.
However, he still triggered passive deconstruction and obtained the recent memories of Codaman and the alchemy slave.
The system refreshed a large amount of text content in his mind, including some skill upgrade information.
While checking the deconstruction results, Li Nuo observed Zikmando in the elemental trial team.
As for how to know what Zikmando is doing, that's much simpler.
Li Nuo faced the metal gate, activated "Tracking the Living", and looked through the gate towards the corridor of Sector 8.
After seeing the scene in the magic vision clearly, he shook his head with some disappointment.
"No, the field of view of "Tracking the Living" is not wide enough. I can't even see the temporary camp. I have to expand the observation range of my magic vision to at least about 60 meters before I can observe the movements of the temporary camp. "
Li Nuo brought up the "Tracking the Living" spell interface and consumed 350 energy points in one breath. He decisively upgraded this frequently used death spell to level 10.
【system information:】
[The horizontal field of view range of "Tracking the Living" is +50 meters, now 110 meters. Vertical vision range increased from +25 meters to 55 meters. 】
[The level of "Tracking the Living" has reached level 10, and you have triggered the upgrade reward. 】
[Please choose one from the following three options:]
[Option 1:]
[The field of view of "Tracking the Living" has been greatly increased, extending to 220 meters in the horizontal direction and 110 meters in the vertical direction. 】

["Tracking the living" transforms into "tracking life and death". The field of view remains the same, but you can now see the living, corpses, and undead at the same time. Continuing to upgrade this skill will increase the field of view. 】
[Option three:]
["Tracking the living" transforms into "seeing through the living". The field of view remains the same, but you can now vaguely see how the blood flows and the status of vital organs in the living body. Continuing to upgrade this skill, you can choose between increasing the field of vision or enhancing the perspective effect. 】
"Hey, how do you choose this?"
Li Nuo slapped his forehead and had difficulty choosing.
Although he can't see the temporary camp now, vivid human outlines have appeared in his magic vision.
As long as you spend some energy points and upgrade "Tracking the Dead", you can still better observe the situation of elemental judgment.
Therefore, the priority of "Option 1" is not high.
"Option 2" tracks the dead and corpses.
"Option 3" is specifically for the living, looking into their physiological structure.
Considering that there are currently many death spells in hand, "Option 2" should be the best.
Li Nuo clenched his fist and lightly hammered his palm, nodded, and said silently:
"I choose option two."
The magic vision flickered, and a white light appeared.
The white light quickly dissipated, and some outlines of blue lines appeared within the field of vision.
Li Nuo narrowed his eyes, looked at the blue outline, and casually threw out the deconstruction technique.
Through the feedback information from the system, Li Nuo confirmed that those blue things were Kodaman and the alchemy slaves who were blown to pieces by the alchemy bomb.
In the explosion just now, only Codaman's black bone fragment survived. Everything else, including the dominoes that controlled Gujia and other things, had been completely ground to rubble.
"Yes, it's quite convenient. I can see the corpse fragments within a horizontal range of 110 meters, and I can also use deconstruction to deconstruct them. Hmm? Wait!"
Li Nuo suddenly felt like he had an enlightenment!
A bolt of lightning flashed across his heart like a flash of enlightenment, piercing through the black fog of confusion!
"Since I can cast deconstruction on corpses within the magical vision of "Tracking of Life and Death", can I use "Evil Explosion" on them? ? "
Li Nuo trembled with excitement, his eyes penetrated the gate and the wall, focusing on a certain blue outline.
He quickly sketched out the blueprint of the spell and stopped casting it when it was about to be completed.
Two lines of system messages appeared in front of him, which made him extremely happy!
[You are about to activate "Evil Explosion" on "Kodaman's Corpse Fragments (Level 1)". 】
[Because you manually terminated the cast, this cast was interrupted. 】
"I can cast "Evil Explosion" from afar! strong! From now on, all I have to do is squat nearby and wait to explode the corpses around the enemy! "
Li Nuo cheered in his heart, clenched his fist and waved it hard.
"It's so risky, it's really so risky. If I had hesitated a few more times, I might have chosen "Option 1" or "Option 3"! Fortunately, the starting point for me to consider options was the existing spell components, and I didn't think about miscellaneous things. Otherwise, I would have missed this awesome skill linkage effect! "
Li Nuo took a deep breath and exhaled it slowly, barely managing to calm his turbulent heart.
He secretly decided to add the research project of "remotely collecting soul fragments" to his five-week plan and give it a higher priority.
"Soul Drain" can be cast from a distance, and Li Nuo does not need to see the target. However, its scope of role is very limited. It is a spherical shape centered on Li Nuo and a radius of 10 meters.
In the future, as long as he finds the method of remotely collecting soul debris, he can make up for the old yin of the empty yin+to collect the soul debris.
Li Nuo settled in his mind and concentrated on observing the corridor of the No. 8 sector.
Sweeping the depths of the corridor, the two sloppy red outlines were walking towards him.
Li Nuo's face was slightly changed, and he didn't know clearly that he was discovered. Or did the two of the other party just come to check the metal gate.
He stomped his heel and stepped back without loudly.
With his movement, the leader of the two of the other party stopped.
A strange scene appeared.
The leader of Li Nuo and the other party is as if they can detect each other's existence, and retreat towards the corridors behind them.
This is like two pushes that open the perspective hanging. By pressing the Q key and E key by alternating, shaking the head to the left and right to confirm the opponent's identity.
How can this be the same as "Escape from the turbine Suka".
A sense of absurdity came into Li Nuo's heart.
He even felt that the other party could see himself.
Li Nuo frowned slightly and threw deconstruction towards the leaders in the two figures.
【system information:】
[You are about to use the deconstruction of "Wizard Moly Filia". 】
"It turned out to be Filia, this girl seemed to have some magic with perspective effects."
Li Nuo did not relax his vigilance and continued to withdraw.
The same is true of Filia. She pulled Betty around her back steadily.
Betty was puzzled and looked at Filia, who scattered four -color elements in the eyes, and asked in confusion:
"Sister, what's the matter? Didn't you say the situation of the gate? Why pull me back?"
"There are weirdness behind the door, and the wind element there is disturbed. It seems that there is something that walks upright away from us."
"Walking upright ... Is it distorted?" Betty asked in a blink of an eye.
"No, I'm not sure. I don't know what it is. It seems to be able to see us, or we hear our voice. As soon as we approached, it started to move back."
Philia returned to Betty's original road and dispelled the idea of checking the metal gate.
Li Nuo rushed to the other party to mobilize the structure towards Filia before leaving the magic field of magic.
