Full health is the kill threshold, no matter if you're a god or a demon!

Morse's expression was very serious:

"A terrifying combination of plants, organisms, and technology! The fruit releases a biological weapon that explodes violently when it combines with blood! I guess you don't have any limb regeneration abilities, right? That thing is the bane of regenerators! Once that biological weapon enters the bloodstream, it directly infects the blood and suppresses regeneration! Because it's a biological weapon, conventional methods are completely ineffective against it! No matter what kind of healing, purification, or divine magic it is, none of it will work! It will infinitely replicate itself in your body... You'll have to be completely dead and use items or the system's abilities to regenerate a new body!"

"Is there no other way?"

Morse shook his head: "This isn't magic or divine arts, but some kind of technological power. You have to use technological means to fight against it! But unfortunately, currently almost no one has reached the technological level of the Star Gnomes, which is what enabled them to launch the Omnic Wars... The Star Gnomes might have a way to fight back, but they've disappeared..."

Liu Nian suddenly remembered something and asked, "Is there any way to preserve that fruit and use it as a weapon?"

Morse thought for a moment and said, "It's definitely not possible to pick the fruit directly, but you can use your spider servants to cut off a section of the vine with the fruit attached, and then preserve it using a method like a static field."

Liu Nian doesn't have such a thing.

However, Morse added, "There's another way!"

"What?"

"What you really want isn't the fruit itself, but rather the biological weapon inside! You have spider servants now; they're mechanical creations, they don't have blood, so they won't be detonated by biological weapons. You have potion bottles, right? You can have your spider servants carry empty bottles, fill them with gas, and then simply drop the bottle in when you need to use it!"

Yes! This trick is much better than just throwing fruit at people!

Although Liu Nian didn't have many potion bottles, the Abe Bees often collected and made various magic potions, so they had many bottles and jars on them.

The three teams of mages who had been left outside came over, led by Shi Ri, Wu Zhan, and others. The vines, no longer restricted by the spider servants, slowly grew into the tunnel following the footsteps.

Everyone was stunned when they saw the massive figure, even bigger than a troll, following behind Liu Nian. Wu Zhan asked, "Who is this...?"

"The legendary adventurer, Mr. Morse," Liu Nian said, "the owner of the diary. He was an engineering dwarf."

"Engineering...dwarfs?" The look in everyone's eyes was exactly the same as when Liu Nian first heard the news.

You call this a dwarf?

Are you kidding me? Do you think I've never seen a dwarf before? A dwarf is half a head taller than me... So what am I then?

Morse was also bewildered when he saw these people.

How come... this level is so low?

Liu Nian is actually the highest-ranking among them?

Isn't this ridiculous?

A level 100+ character fighting tens of thousands of level 300+ aberrations? Isn't that just suicide?

Liu Nian gave a brief introduction to both parties, then asked Vayne to bring out some empty bottles, and then instructed the Spider King to fill them with gas.

After receiving the order, the Spider King went straight to the plants.

It was not afraid of plants at all, and easily fulfilled Liu Nian's request, only retreating after filling dozens of bottles with gas.

Liu Nian put the Spider King away.

Morse couldn't help but confirm the route with Liu Nian again.

"Are you sure you want to take the shortest route? It's dangerous!"

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

Morse glanced at him, then hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but didn't.

In the end, he shook his head and stepped into the laboratory.

The group followed him through the laboratory, walked along an upward ramp for a while, and then climbed a spiral staircase to a dark hall.

The ground here was covered with solid metal plates, but most of them had been corroded and pitted by some kind of corrosive liquid. The air was filled with a sour, foul odor mixed with the smell of decay.

The hall was filled with all sorts of mechanical wreckage—broken cloning pods, broken pipes, twisted metal frames, and a large amount of blood and corpses on the ground!

Liu Nian squinted his eyes.

It's obvious that a battle took place here!

Could it be that Lie Lin and his group passed through here?

The thing that was killed was humanoid, but not entirely human.

Each of them looks different, with all sorts of strange and disgusting deformities on their bodies. However, they are generally between two and three meters tall, with grayish-white skin covered with purple blood vessels that are densely packed like a spider web.

Most of the variants have severely disproportionate limbs—arms that extend past the knees, huge hands with sharp bone spurs at the fingertips, and no hair or ears on their heads.

Some have no mouth, some have a horizontally split mouth filled with countless tiny teeth, and some have mouthparts that look like those of ants...

Morse clearly hadn't expected that all these mutants would be killed.

"Do you have any other companions?" he asked.

"They weren't exactly companions, more like a relationship of mutual exploitation. But I don't know if they were just passing through here, or if it was someone else..."

Upon hearing this, Morse said, "You mean, assuming we encounter them later, a fight might break out?"

"An 80% chance!" Liu Nian said. "So these monsters are the mutants you were talking about?"

Morse nodded. "That's right, those are the things. Failures from the cloning workshop. They have no intelligence, only the instinct to attack anything that moves."

Liu Nian thought that Lie Lin and the others were quite capable to kill so many monsters above level 350.

As they were talking, a strange, hoarse roar came from the passage behind them, and then a pair of eerie green lights lit up.

Sun Devourer immediately warned, "It's here! It's a level 360 aberration!"

No sooner had the words left his mouth than the mutant lunged out of the darkness!

Its speed was astonishing; it covered tens of meters in less than three seconds, lunging at the last player in the group with its claws outstretched.

Liu Nian flashed and appeared behind the player. When the mutant pounced, he calmly punched its claws one after another!

-7.2 billion!

The mutant's claws and arms were blasted away by this punch!

But this thing seemed to feel no pain and had no reason. It still pounced forward, opening its terrifying mouth, trying to swallow Liu Nian's head whole!

Liu Nian slightly bent over, lightly stepped on the ground, and slammed his heel!

Pfft!

The mutant's head was completely gone.

The headless body swayed, seemingly unaware that it was dead, and continued to stagger forward, finally collapsing to the ground after a few steps.

"Hoo~" "Wow~" "Drink~~"

One roar after another echoed from the passageway, and more mutants appeared!

Liu Nian charged forward against the mutant, unstoppable! The earth roared once more!

Then, two loud bangs rang out, and the roars vanished completely as all the mutants were reduced to minced meat.

Morse stood behind, his mouth slightly open, unable to close it for a long time.

He checked Liu Nian's level; it was indeed level 199.

But how come he's so fierce?
