Out of curiosity, Chen Mo also touched the toad's teeth and found that they felt almost the same as his own teeth and had the same hardness.
Of course, touching the teeth was just a matter of convenience, and he couldn't touch it for a long time. Moreover, the teeth grew in the mouth of the toad, so one can imagine how many germs there were there.
Thinking of this, he immediately withdrew his hand and no longer had any curiosity.
Then, he began to ask the toad carefully, asking him to tell him the information about the group just now.
Communication is naturally not about communication through words, but about communication using mental power. Moreover, the toad's intelligence is not too high. It has the IQ of a child of less than five years old. It can communicate, but it is often unclear and requires Chen Mo to guess.
Fortunately, things are simple. From the fight between Toad and Rhine and others, as well as the general process, and whether they encountered anything after entering the tower.
Regarding the fight outside, Toad described it relatively clearly, but when it came to entering the nine-story tower, he didn't express it clearly.
Just let Chen Mo know that the toad is responsible for not allowing anything to break into the tower. Once there is an intruder, he must be killed.
Due to their strong strength, Toad had no way to stop Rhine and his party and could only let them enter. After being injured, You Qi hid in the underground passage of the nine-story tower, thus saving his life.
Toad hated Rhine and his group, but he had no way to retaliate. Therefore, when communicating with Chen Mo, he had to ask him to avenge himself from time to time, so as not to make things easier for Lai Yin and his party.
I don't know what this toad is thinking, how to judge that his strength is higher than Rhine, otherwise how to take revenge.
After asking, I got a ridiculous answer. It was because there were many people in Lai Yin's group, and Chen Mo was alone. Naturally, to be able to come here, a person's strength must be stronger than Rhine's group.
Regarding this, Chen Mo could only laugh.
Of course, Chen Mo also asked why he was so close to him.
Toad's answer was similar to the answers of the previous monsters. Basically, he said that he had an aura that they felt close to, and this aura was also a very familiar aura to them, so they were so close to Chen Mo.
As for what kind of familiar aura and what kind of thing it is emitting, like all previous monsters, it is unclear. Anyway, it just feels very close. As for what it is close to, I can't say.
Okay, that’s it for the exchange. Anyway, everyone who understands understands, so it’s time to say goodbye.
However, this big toad made a request to Chen Mo. He wanted Chen Mo to remove the hole seal that it had previously hidden after entering the nine-story tower, otherwise it would not be able to enter the inside of the tower in the future. .
The big toad's duty is to guard the surroundings of the nine-story tower and the interior of the first floor. On the first floor of the nine-story tower, there is a passage leading to the interior, entering the first floor of the nine-story tower.
But now the exit on the first floor of the nine-story tower has been blocked by Lain and others, making it impossible to enter the nine-story tower through this passage in the future. Therefore, Toad wanted Chen Mo's help to remove the things blocking this passage.
Chen Mo naturally agreed to this request. There was no difficulty. He just used some heavy objects to block it. Once inside the nine-story tower, he could easily remove it.
In addition, he also remembered that he seemed to have forgotten to ask about the situation inside the nine-story tower, so he asked casually.
The result is that this toad is only responsible for the first floor of the nine-story tower, and the rest is unknown.
In addition, Toad had a strong fear of the nine-story tower, and even tried to persuade Chen Mo not to go to the tower, otherwise there would be great danger.
Chen Mo naturally ignored this. He came here just to get the soul-inducing flower, so he had to go to the top of the nine-story tower.
Taking the big toad with him, he came to the entrance of the nine-story tower again. At this time, the entrance to the nine-story tower has automatically closed.
Therefore, Chen Mo could only open it again.
Of course, the mechanisms on the door and the poisonous mist had basically no effect on him. As soon as his consciousness swept away, everything became very clear.
He even discovered that there was a small mechanism underneath the gate. As long as the gate was opened, the gate would slowly close after a period of time. It's actually a very simple hourglass mechanism.
The weight of the hourglass is an important part of triggering the mechanism. As long as the hourglass reaches a certain weight, the base of the hourglass will be pressed down, and then the mechanism will be triggered to close the door. Repeating it back and forth is not only very simple, but also can be used for a very long time. . As long as the objects of these mechanisms are not damaged, they can continue to be used.
Just like now, after thousands of years, this mechanism still exists and is still very easy to use.
In addition, even the venom mechanism and the sharp blade on the top can be used normally.
Even the materials of these mechanisms did not feel rusty, which made Chen Mo a little curious. What kind of material made this blade still so sharp and emitting a cold light after thousands of years?
Therefore, when pushing the door open, he ignored Toad's prompts and directly used the sapphire sword to easily cut off one end of the sharp blade from the root. What he got was a cold metal blade like a long ax blade.
Chen Mo held the cold blade in his hand and felt that it was very heavy, probably weighing several hundred kilograms. Moreover, this cold blade is not made of ordinary iron metal, but refined cold iron, which is also mixed with some special metals.
However, due to time constraints, he could not find out what metal was mixed in it. If we can’t detect it, we’ll talk about it later.
In the blink of an eye, this very good cold blade was in his Qiankun bag and he accepted it with a smile.
In the future, if any metal is found out, if it is more valuable, then consider mixing it into the sapphire sword. If it is still suitable, then use this cold blade to create a replacement weapon for the sapphire sword.
Usually, Chen Mo often uses the Tang sword called Onimaru. However, this Onimaru is only of good quality and is also a legendary weapon, but it does not have much refining significance.
If you can take part in it and refine Onimaru, you might be able to create a good weapon again.
The Sapphire Sword is his natal weapon. Once damaged, it will affect his own strength, so he should try not to use his natal weapon in normal times. Then, there must be an alternative weapon, and the better one is on hand, which is Onimaru.
Therefore, once you have good metal, you can refine it and use it frequently.
He ducked into the first floor of the nine-story tower. After some observation, he discovered that the black smoke in the center of the nine-story tower should be the sinister aura exhaled by the nearly 100,000 black-armored zombies outside, and it was also mixed with a certain amount of evil spirit. Yang Qi, so the airflow in the central area is abnormally tumbling.
And those eight stone sculptures of strange beasts are actually not stone carvings, but real strange beasts that were made into mummies, wrapped in a layer of bronze, and then made into stone shapes. If it were really a stone sculpture, the black smoke might not have lasted so long.
After a stone has been soaked with this mixture of Yin evil and Yang energy for a long time, the internal structure of the stone will change, and some of the Yin evil energy and Yang energy will gradually be consumed. Finally, because it is a stone, it will be weathered away. .
Just like the sarcophagus of the black-armored zombie, once a certain period of time is reached, the sarcophagus will weather and turn into black sand, and at the same time, the black-armored zombie will be successfully refined.
Of course, if all jade is used, there will naturally be no such weathering results, but the cost of jade will increase infinitely, and it is not as affordable as using stone.
And this kind of strange beast, because of its inherent abilities, will not change at all even if it has been under the influence of yin and yang for a long time.
Of course, although Chen Mo could use his spiritual consciousness to observe that these eight stone sculptures were actually strange beasts, he didn't know what kind of strange beasts they were.
When he came to this underground place, he couldn't recognize many things, so he could only remember them as curious babies. Maybe he could solve these questions in the future.
When his spiritual consciousness swept over it, he discovered that the interior of the second floor could not be observed from the first floor of the nine-story tower. There is a formation isolation between the first and second floors. Therefore, his consciousness cannot go up at all.
Moreover, he also felt that the formation barrier between the first and second floors was much more energetic than the outside barrier, and the spiritual power contained in it was many times that of the outside barrier.
When Chen Mo's consciousness came into contact, he would be counterattacked by the barrier. If he hadn't reacted quickly, there might have been an attack following his own consciousness to attack his sea of spiritual consciousness.
However, what puzzled him was that the barrier here had such a strong counterattack ability. How could Lain and others continue to move up? Are people inside protected from the attack of the barrier? So why is my consciousness being attacked?
After some observation, Chen Mo found that there was no danger on the first floor, so he found the hole blocked by Lain and others, removed the heavy weight on it, and opened the passage.
Rhine's men are still very clever. The stone blocking this place was actually combined with the stone on the ground by these people's supernatural powers. In this way, no matter how hard they hit, it is impossible to remove the blocking stone.
If Chen Mo didn't have the Jade Sword, it would have taken a certain amount of time to remove the stone.
After opening the passage, I looked at the first floor again and found that there was nothing suspicious, so I headed to the second floor.
He wanted to see if this barrier would attack him. However, there is also the protection that should be provided. The Vajra Talisman, the Isolation Talisman, the Breath Condensing Talisman, etc. are all used on oneself to protect oneself from the attack of the barrier.
Even if it attacks, it can weaken the intensity of the attack. At any time, it is better to be careful.
