The killing started from the moment they arrived at the lower level.
Lu Ping'an, wearing heavy armor, took the lead (mainly because he disliked his teammates for being too dishonest) and rushed into the monster community.
Once the low-consumption three-attack flame attack is launched, in a battlefield of this level, it will be the end of clearing the battlefield.
At this time, Lu Ping'an had no intention of holding back.
Flames surrounded it, and the monsters that approached turned into charred corpses, easily punching through the beasts blocking the way.
But this does not mean that after the "invaders" and their party took advantage and blocked the passage from the upper and lower levels, outside reinforcements could not enter. The adventurers trapped in the underground palace have become a turtle in a jar.
No matter how strong you are, after losing supplies and backup, the opponent only needs to hang on to you until the moment you collapse.
".There are no intelligent monsters?"
This encounter on the 21st floor ended extremely quickly.
The student soldiers probably really can only serve as cheerleaders in the back.
"No."
This result is a bit bad.
There is no end to the beast tide, but the intelligent monsters, as the masters here, are certainly limited.
Lu Pingping needs the intelligence of intelligent monsters to understand everything that is happening locally, and at the same time, he also needs to find other channels.
Looking up, the rock wall is very high, and the surrounding stone walls are inlaid with crystal stones and strange raw minerals. After the 20th floor, the underground palace is already a valuable magic mining area.
There should have been many "miners" here in the past, but now there are none.
"Does this happen often?"
".Maybe it's a turmoil period, it's not very common."
"We encountered it once before, but we were on the fifth floor at the time, so we went back directly with the big team. I heard that there were a lot of losses on the lower floors."
"In this case, we should wait for reinforcements, right?"
"No, no, no, who knows when the reinforcements will come, they still have to find a way down. I heard that at this time, you still have to find a safer area by yourself."
The students don't have much practical experience, but they have heard a lot of messy information. Now that Lu Ping'an is asking about it, everyone expresses their opinions, which is very lively.
Although there was a lot of unreliable information, a lot of effective information was collected when it came to their lives and deaths. After a little bit of sorting, the current situation became clearer.
In a sense, autonomous disturbances in the underground palace caused by many reasons are not uncommon.
After all, this is not an orderly secret realm controlled by the righteous gods, but a wild secret realm that is completely out of control.
However, due to different reasons, the scale and consequences are also different. The most troublesome thing is that the other party has "reinforcements" from the outside.
A strong man comes from the surrounding foreign land or kingdom, leads the local residents, strangles the low-level adventurers, and kills their active forces. This kind of thing often leads to retaliation, but in fact it happens quite a lot. .
This is the most troublesome situation, because no one can be sure of the level of the "big guy" who comes over. Several clean group annihilations in the local area were all because the Dragon Crossing the River was too strong and cleared the field before reinforcements arrived.
Secondly, there are powerful local creatures that have advanced and new kings have appeared. The chiefs of the tribes have a competitive and cooperative relationship with each other, and each party has its own territory.
But if a chief's strength increases by leaps and bounds and presents an overwhelming advantage, it is like a Genghis Khan appearing on the grassland. After integrating the power of various tribes, he will naturally find a rich prey to start with.
There is also the possibility that a certain chief or boss suddenly went crazy. This happens twice every two months. In fact, it is not uncommon, but judging from the results
". It should be the first two possibilities. If just one chief goes crazy, he will not directly blow up the passages on each floor. Such a large-scale beast commotion can only be caused by multiple tribes."
Lu Ping'an suddenly realized, so to speak, the simplest way to deal with it
"Either wait for rescue." This is how 99% of survivors deal with it. They just find a safe area to huddle together for warmth, or fight guerrillas and wait for support.
".Or, kill the source of the unrest."
——
For the Gray Ax tribe, this is a long-awaited event and festival.
In the past, the small and medium-sized tribes that could only mess around in the shallow layers have now become the kings of the underground palace.
This is their world, and today is the time for their counterattack.
"Kill them, kill these outsiders."
"We are finally leaving this prison, this damn underworld"
"Is the outside world really as beautiful as our ancestors said?"
This is a derivative world of the super-threat world Zero. In the largest pothole in this area, there is an entire kingdom, a troublesome "country" that needs to be dealt with by the ancient city garrison.
As a radiated world, this place is very suppressed by humans. Periodic clean-ups are inevitable, and it is normal to regard it as a mining area.
But what happens if you don’t?
The beast tide here will spurt out, and the small world that is too close to World Zero cannot be transformed into an orderly world by the power of the True God.
This is not far from the ancient city. Once the embankment breaks, it is simply unacceptable.
It's hard to say who is the invader. This world belongs to humans, and these foreign visitors/native species are actually aliens. However, in this small world, intelligent species have been born, often no more than ten years old. They regard it as their everything.
And if it is just a beast, even an extremely cunning beast is relatively easy to deal with, but it is still the existence of the "kingdom" of World Zero, which intermittently sends out people to spread wisdom, knowledge, and culture, so that Each intelligent monster turned into a group of beasts.
Their dream may be to break through the human barriers and go to the ancestral land in the dream, the legendary world zero, the infinite underground palace kingdom.
This has become a routine and a spiritual inheritance that cannot be eradicated even by the Great Purge.
Occasionally, they do succeed, and then the warriors squatting at the checkpoint will suffer a cruel fate.
But more often than not, being single and weak, they will only follow the orders of their "source" and become cannon fodder to draw the strength of the defenders.
This is also the reason why the government will open these derivative caves to the public. Clearing them will also help the main battlefield.
Peaceful coexistence? These areas will continue to spawn endless monsters, most of which are destined to be unintelligent beasts. Even after gaining wisdom, their bloodthirsty and cannibalistic nature will not change. The two sides are destined to be mortal enemies from the beginning.
Unlike newcomers, veterans are used to this periodic "turbulence period."
In the twenty-seventh floor of the deepest pit, there are countless safe houses, which will only be activated in the most critical moments.
Some of them cooperated and waited for reinforcements, some hid in the nearby safe zone, some were even more familiar with the terrain here than the local monsters, and some had already organized a counterattack.
While newcomers like Lu Ping'an were still collecting information at a loss, the two sides were already at loggerheads.
On the seventh floor, the eleventh floor, the fifteenth floor, the seventeenth floor, the twentieth floor, the twenty-fourth floor, and the twenty-sixth floor, with the broken upper and lower passages as the gathering point, a cruel and direct competition for survival is taking place.
