The system is four years ahead of schedule, but Weird is still a cub.

Shen Ge endured the stench and passed through the gap he had cut in the flesh wall. His first reaction after entering was that he stepped into a pool of mud.

Paji.

Paji.

The sticky substance on the ground was very sticky, and the Red Mist Armor made a disgusting sound when stepping on it, and it took a lot of effort to pull the feet out of the sticky substance.

In addition, these sticky substances also have a strong energy erosion effect. The energy of the Red Mist Armor is almost infinite due to the influence of the characteristic "Endless", but the numerical value can still be seen jumping.

The speed of reduction is not slow. If it was the previous fourth or fifth level, it would probably consume one tenth of the red mist energy in just two hits.

"Master, these black sticky substances on the ground seem to be a little bit wrong!" Classmate Xiao Qi controlled the corrupt blood tentacles and shone the weird flashlight on the ground. He could see that there seemed to be something drilling around in the black liquid. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a bunch of thumb-sized black worms huddled together, which made people almost suffer from claustrophobia.

Not only on the ground, but also on the surrounding flesh walls, there were these thumb-sized black worms crawling all over. Their bodies seemed to be covered with a layer of sticky oil, which was very disgusting.

"Could these be the new type of strange parasites that Yin Hu mentioned?" Shen Ge felt that there were too many of them and they didn't look like mass-produced junk.

Snapped.

Shen Ge snapped his fingers, and the red mist armor wrapped around his right arm sprayed out a strange fire towards the sticky substance on the ground in front of him, but the fire went out as soon as it touched the ground.

Shen Ge thought for a moment, spread out the "Incombustible Strange Area" and used ignition point control to lower the ignition point of the surrounding viscous substances and the ground, and then sprayed out strange fire.

"call--"

The flames spread instantly, burning along the ground to the wall, burning the insects and making crackling sounds. The air was instantly filled with a burnt smell.

But the sticky substance on the ground seemed to be endless, and more black worms crawled out of the sticky substance. The burnt smell mixed with the original disgusting smell, making it so bad that one could die from the stench by just taking a breath in this space. Even Shen Ge's several layers of masks could not completely block it.

"Damn, I'm almost fainted by the stench." Shen Ge remained extremely calm even when facing level six or seven monsters. This was the only time he cursed the entire time because of the stench, which was enough to show how terrible the lethality of the stench here is.

Suddenly, when a large gap was burned in the sticky substance in front, a thick black fog of strange energy suddenly gushed out from the bottom, filling the entire space. Even the light of the strange energy flashlight was severely affected, making the entire space dark.

"System, scan the surroundings!"

The system quickly marked the red dots in the space. Shen Ge took a look at the [map] and found that the monster was still blocked in the space outside.

There was no trace of any strange person in the space where he was currently.

"System, search for targets in the area and lock onto them."

Since it was impossible to determine a fixed target, Shen Ge could only choose to consume system points to allow the system to conduct a carpet search.

Although the system points consumed were huge, it soon produced results.

[A strong strange energy reaction is detected in the depths of the strange fog. Do you want to lock it? 】

"Yes!"

[Lock the target and start scanning now. 】

[Target locked: "******", characteristic: "******", strange sequence? ? , current rating? ? , comprehensive strange ability? ? ? ? . ]

WTF?

After Shen Ge saw the system prompt, he was more shocked than if he had not conducted the scan.

A scan without any substantive information would be fine if a large amount of system points were deducted from him, but the key point is that these "*" and "?" can only have two possibilities:

One is that there was a problem with the system, causing it to read the wrong time as it did initially, resulting in a four-year discrepancy between reality and the system's judgment;

However, this situation was completely resolved after the system was upgraded to level five. Now at level six, even the detection information is very accurate, and it is impossible for such low-level errors to occur again.

That can only be the second case -

The rating of the object being scanned far exceeds the system's rating, causing the system to reach its limit when detecting the other party's existence.

System points are equivalent to the energy of the system. So much energy is consumed but no useful information can be detected.

So what exactly is the other party?
The eighth-level weirdness had successfully detected some basic information of the opponent when Sakura was in the "future", but now it can't even detect the name of the characteristic...

Ninth level?

Or level ten?

Or is it... the ultimate existence, the Earth?
"So where did this take me? Is this Earth?" Shen Ge had sensed something was wrong when he was crossing that hell-like soul passage. Add to that the stench that even the red fog armor couldn't block, and now the system couldn't detect any information about the target.

All of these questions are saying that Shen Ge’s current situation is by no means as simple as the “underground base in the processing area”.

Shen Ge originally wanted to detect the target's position through the system, and then use the [map] to locate it and directly attack the opponent's weakness.

But now the system cannot lock the specific location, so he can only choose to move forward in the dark.

However, the system's detection was not completely fruitless. At least it made Shen Ge realize that the current situation was very complicated and must be treated with caution.

While maintaining the three characteristics, he switched the strange domain to "stay within the strange domain", condensed an invisible barrier in the air and stood on it to avoid direct contact with the black sticky substance.

Then, Shen Ge moved forward cautiously.

The deeper you go, the thicker the strange black fog in the space becomes.

What was strange was that in this thick fog, the dark space was low and depressing. Shen Ge slowed down his pace and paid attention to the movements around him.

"Gulu."

"Gulu."

Suddenly, a strange and unique swallowing sound caught Shen Ge's attention. He stopped, raised his hand and sprayed a stream of black fire forward, trying to burn a visible area in the strange energy black fog.

However, the strength of the strange black fog was too high. If the red fog strange energy was not continuously supplied, the strange fire would be extinguished in two seconds at most.

Even if Shen Ge tried to lower the ignition point of the surrounding area through the non-flammable strange domain, he would be affected by the surrounding strange energy black fog, and even spreading the strange domain became difficult.

At this moment, Shen Ge discovered a faint "figure" in the strange black fog, and then the second, the third...

There were more and more figures, as if a large number of strange people appeared out of thin air in the space. They stepped on the bloody mud but did not make any strange sounds, as if their feet had completely merged with the mud.

Shen Ge did not act rashly. He now maintained the state of "three characteristics". Even monsters of the same level could not accurately capture his position, let alone monsters with lower ratings than him.

The monsters were slowly gathering towards Shen Ge's location. When the first monster walked out of the strange black fog, Shen Ge found that this monster looked very much like the "new monster" in the strange sleeping bag. It looked like a human overall, but it violated the principle that humans cannot be directly alienated.

"Are these weird things 'evolving' towards humans, or can humans really be transformed into weirdos?"

It is impossible to tell whether these "weirdos" are weird or weird just by looking with the eyes. Even the weirdo in the weird sleeping bag, Xiaoqi cannot accurately confirm what it is just by comparing the data, so he has to take it back for anatomical research.

Snapped.

Snapped.

Suddenly, the heads of the "weirdos" in front of him exploded, and strange parasites with mouths like bloody petals stretched out from the flesh and blood.

"The parasite?" Shen Ge frowned.

The ones who are parasitized are the lowest level monsters. In zombie movies like "Resident Evil", they are the lowest level zombies, killed for fun by high-level mutants such as Lickers and Tyrants.

However, whether from the system's detection or Xiaoqi's scan, the strength of the parasitic energy of these parasites has reached the fourth-order weird level!
Zombie appearance, tyrant physique?
how can that be!

These "weirdos" still couldn't determine Shen Ge's exact location in the three-characteristic state, and could only gather towards his approximate location.

When they got closer, Shen Ge noticed that there was a "human face" in the state of a soul growing in the mouth of these flesh and blood petals.

He had seen this kind of "human face" twice. The first time was when he first dealt with the "strange car driver" sent by the monster organization to deal with him.

The second time was when he was investigating Dr. Chen in Dajing and fell into a strange and bizarre space, and saw the "strange parasites" in the body of the sixth-order fusion monster.

This was the third time he had seen this kind of thing, and Shen Ge couldn't help but wonder, could it be that this terrifying existence, which even the system couldn't detect any information about, had some kind of relationship with the sixth-order fusion monster?
But the location is wrong.

Although the sixth-level fusion monster was seen in the dream world before, the location was in Dajing, but he is now in Xinhai.

The distance between Xinhai and Dajing is not something that an unconscious weirdo can just "wander" across.

When Shen Ge was thinking about the connection between these weirdos, he suddenly noticed that the black sticky substance under their feet began to boil, bubbling like magma, and the temperature in the entire space was also rising.

Shen Ge took a look at the red mist armor's strange energy consumption. The consumption rate at this time was close to that when it directly touched the black viscous substance before.

Fortunately, with the "Endless" characteristic, as long as the Red Mist Armor's strange energy is not drained all at once, it can be continuously recovered.

Shen Ge did not alarm those weirdos, but relied on the state of "three characteristics" to carefully pass through them to avoid causing backlash in this space.

Shen Ge continued moving forward in one direction, and finally came to a wall of flesh covered with a thick layer of "oil".

Black worms can be seen swimming around in the sticky "oil", which looks no different from the flesh wall we encountered when entering.

At this time, there were still subtle movements in the strange black fog behind him, and the weirdos that Shen Ge had "avoided" followed him again.

One way is to use the ghost-killing revolver and the butcher knife to break through the wall and get out, but that means wasting two hours in this strange space.

Although the system's detection failed to detect any specific information, it was enough to conclude that the "heart" was most likely in this room, but was hidden.

Shen Ge thought for a moment, gritted his teeth and decided to go back and look for it again despite the stench.

When we bypassed the monsters chasing us, we found that the number of monsters seemed to have doubled. There were only a dozen of them before, but now there are more than thirty.

"Will the number continue to increase as long as they can't find me?"

Just based on the fact that it can mass-produce fourth-order monsters, if this monster descends into "reality", even if Shen Ge takes action, he will not be able to stop the destruction of the world.

Shen Ge felt a huge amount of pressure for the first time, and he was determined to find out what was happening to this mysterious creature. If he didn't return to the "reality" to find and kill it before it grew up, then when it grew to such a terrifying state, humans in the "reality" would have to wait for destruction.

"Gulu."

"Gulu."

At this moment, a strange and unique swallowing sound was faintly heard from deep ahead.

The entire space before my eyes was filled with thick black fog of strange energy. It was pitch black and I couldn't even tell the directions. I could only roughly determine my location by the strange guy following behind me.

Shen Ge wanted to use this strange and unique swallowing sound as a reference and walked forward in the direction of the sound. However, after walking for almost half an hour, he still didn't find any changes.

In addition, the number of monsters behind him has increased by more than a dozen, and the total number has exceeded fifty!
You have to know that these are not fifty low-level monsters, but fifty fourth-level monsters. Even if the monsters are one level lower, they are still dozens of third-level monsters "mass-produced" in just a few dozen minutes!
The point is, Shen Ge has no idea how these monsters appeared. In the past, when he encountered parasitic monsters in the stomachs of weird or fusion monsters, the other party would at least hatch through eggs, or separate from flesh and blood, and there was a process of appearance.

But Shen Ge, the "weirdos" here, has carefully observed that they don't even have a birth process, and can be described very aptly as follows:

It’s like when you’re playing a game and the system “spawns monsters out of thin air”!

Shen Ge was "lost" in this strange space. The temperature in the space was still rising and the air temperature was close to fifty degrees.

If Shen Ge had not been wearing the red mist armor, and his physique was not that weird, an ordinary person would have died in such an environment long ago.

Shen Ge continued to walk deeper in the direction of the sound. Even the strange energy flashlight had no effect in this completely dark space. Even though he had created a distance between himself and the black sticky substance on the ground through an invisible barrier, the red fog armor was still constantly consuming strange energy.

Another hour passed, and Shen Ge was almost exploding from the high temperature and stench. He even wanted to use the power of dreams to escape from here and return to the "mountains" or the Ark.

But this strange space felt too dangerous to him. If he missed the opportunity to investigate and could not find it in "reality", "reality" would be in danger.

"Master, the number of monsters is still increasing, and it is almost over one hundred!" Xiao Qi reminded.

If things continue like this, the entire space will be filled with weirdos.

Shen Ge stopped and took out the strange energy equipment in the strange space, preparing to quickly eliminate these third-level monsters.

The third-level monsters were basically "little monsters" that were killed instantly in front of Shen Ge, but when he chopped off the head of one of the monsters with a butcher knife——

This monster actually split into two, the head turned into a new monster, and the body grew another head!
"What the hell?"

Unlimited reproduction of a single entity?

What the hell are these things! (End of this chapter)
