Wrong Ground, Spiral Twins
Page 38
From the thirteenth floor to the seventeenth floor, there are pits like this that you can't see the bottom of. Although they are not everywhere, they are definitely not few.
Most of them are corridors connecting the upper and lower floors, but they are not necessarily connected in sequence. There are many cases where one can fall directly from the thirteenth floor to the seventeenth floor by accident.
That's why a good landing device is needed... During the rest period, Su Mo carefully checked the landing device to ensure that it could be used in the next landing, and then took out the map to look at it.
After resting for a while, Su Mo jumped down into the vertical passage without any hesitation.
The light spot did not light up, but by taking this as a starting point and following the map, the approximate range of the light spot can still be found.
He landed safely through the vertical tunnel and, as expected, directly jumped over the fourteenth floor.
Arriving at the fifteenth floor, the number of large monsters has increased significantly. Cerberus have also replaced horned rabbits as the mainstream monsters on this floor. They prefer to guard the many checkpoints in groups of three or five.
They have a keen sense of smell, can spit fire, and can launch attacks directly from dozens of meters away.
This is why they like to guard aisles. Just imagine what the scene would be like if several flames with temperatures high enough to melt ordinary metals exploded in a long and narrow aisle.
If they can't be cleared away directly, then the speed of moving through the aisles must be fast.
"Boom~"
The fire stone exploded, and the hellhounds hovering at the entrance of the cave dodged in panic. Taking advantage of the firelight, Su Mo, who was in stealth mode, activated his speed at double speed and instantly stepped into the cave along the "road" temporarily opened by the fire stone.
There were monsters wandering around in the cave, and Su Mo didn't dare to stop at all. Not only did he not slow down his speed, but he increased it again.
In an instant, a cold light flashed, accompanied by the falling of a hellhound's head. Su Mo quickly crossed the cave and flashed into another aisle.
It was at this time that flames began to gather in the mouths of the other hellhounds, and they quickly began to chase after them, growling.
Breaking through levels, escaping, hiding... When he reached the fifteenth floor, Su Mo could increasingly feel what "reluctant" meant.
He cannot choose his own targets, it is a one-on-many situation, the effectiveness of sneak attacks is reduced, the frequency of battles is increased, and a head-on confrontation is inevitable. If he still has room for mistakes on the thirteenth floor, then here he really feels like dancing on the edge of a knife.
The full attribute 'A' means nothing here.
All he could really rely on was the sharpness of the Goddess's Sword, the speed of its explosive power, and the concealment of the invisibility cloak.
Breaking through with a sword, fleeing at full speed, hiding and recovering, on the upper level, he was fighting in a hexagonal formation, where only three corners could barely sustain his survival - it was ok for a short battle, but once the battle was stretched to 'minutes', it would undoubtedly be a matter of life and death.
After pouring a bottle of high-level magic elixir into his mouth, Su Mo, who was hiding in the corner of the cave, did not dare to breathe. While resting and recovering, he silently summed up his experience.
Recover and find the right time to move forward.
"!"
After walking a short distance, Su Mo suddenly saw the bright light again.
This time, the light spot appeared in his pupils in the shape of a small square, and it was obviously much larger.
The position has not moved, and the direction is correct... Su Mo felt at ease, and his will became more resolute. In an absolutely rational state, he did not have a trace of impatience or hesitation, but continued to move towards the destination at his own pace.
The light spot disappeared after more than ten minutes. After three or four hours of stopping and starting, Su Mo finally arrived at the approximate area where the light spot was.
"Roar……"
As I walked out of the aisle, before I had time to look around, the roar of battle reached my ears.
There were no monsters in sight, so Su Mo walked slowly forward following the sound.
Not long after, Su Mo saw a battle that was beyond his imagination and unique - a dozen horned rabbits were hunting two Minotaurs, and they had the upper hand.
Rough leather armor, shapeless armor, daggers, short swords, short axes, and obviously modified small-sized spears. Have you ever seen a fully armed unicorn rabbit? Su Mo saw it now.
Not only that, the leading unicorns were obviously bigger than the other unicorns, with bulging muscles that made them look extremely strong. Judging from the battle, their "agility" and "dexterity" were no less than those of ordinary unicorns.
Strengthening species——
It should be a strengthened species, but how come so many strengthened species suddenly appeared? And they are of the same species?
In an instant, Su Mo thought of the previous mutation of the unicorn rabbit.
The 'system panel' appears here, and the mutation of the horned rabbit clan, are the two related?
The battle ended quickly, and the group of horned rabbits quickly packed up their spoils, scattered and hid themselves again.
The group of unicorn rabbits did not leave, nor did they wander around randomly, but entered the ambush stage again. Seeing this scene that made people not know how to complain, Su Mo hid himself more secretly.
There were no other monsters nearby, so he could take a good rest. At the same time, he also wanted to see what was going on with these rabbits.
Waiting is usually long and boring, but this time, Su Mo was truly eye-opening.
This place is already the edge area of the fifteenth floor, away from the main road, and there are not many monsters and adventurers coming and going. However, no matter whether it is a newly born monster or a monster passing by here, it will be attacked and killed by the horned rabbit group at the first opportunity.
The sneak attack was so fierce and the encirclement was so skillful that Su Mo's eyes twitched.
Although he did not see any adventurer team coming here with his own eyes, Su Mo felt that an ordinary LV.2 adventurer team would be in a difficult situation if they fell into an ambush and lost the initiative.
No wonder the guild has repeatedly publicized and warned against this.
The unicorn rabbits with obviously extraordinary potential abilities did not rush all the way on the path of the Berserker, but instead learned how to ambush others... What is meant by "not being afraid of the Berserker going berserk, but being afraid of the Berserker using his brain to hide in the bush"? This is obviously the case.
In this way, he silently observed the rabbits' sneak attacks and hunted, while waiting patiently. Time in hours gradually passed. After waiting for a long time, Su Mo finally saw it again, the light that ignored the barriers and was reflected directly into his eyes.
A flash of light appeared, and the light curtain suddenly unfolded in all directions.
Chapter 67: Rabbit also has ideals?
The four-sided light curtain unfolded.
This time, Su Mo saw the 'panel' changing. He couldn't see it clearly at first, but then it slowed down and he could roughly see that what finally appeared were patterns of items and a series of unclear texts.
Item identification?
Su Mo suddenly felt a little pain in his heart and his teeth felt a little sore.
That originally belonged to him!
"Goo~"
A sound was like a command, and the unicorn rabbits scattered around quickly formed a team and headed elsewhere.
Su Mo hurried to catch up, because the direction in which the horned rabbits left was exactly where the "panel light curtain" was.
This time, the 'panel light curtain' only appeared for less than five minutes before disappearing again. However, even though the light disappeared, groups of horned rabbits were still moving towards the direction of the light.
Relying on his extraordinary vision, he followed along the way, and before he knew it, the ceiling of the cave was getting lower and lower, and the road was becoming more and more intermittent.
After dispersing again, as if after patrolling the surroundings, the regrouped group of rabbits finally broke through the stone wall, stepped into the dark corridor, broke through the ground at the end, and finally reached a place that was not depicted on the map.
Undeveloped area——
Never discovered, never recorded, such territories are called 'undeveloped areas' by the guild, and discovering, developing, and recording such areas is undoubtedly one of the top achievements.
The last lucky person who discovered the 'unexplored area' on the 20th floor took away more than 20 million Faris directly from the guild.
Silently memorizing the future route in his mind, Su Mo carefully jumped into the underground passage. The aisle ahead was one that he had to lower his head to pass through.
Fortunately, this aisle is low but not narrow. If it was an aisle with no room to maneuver, he might need to consider throwing a few fire stones forward.
It is always better to alert the enemy than to limit yourself and be caught in a trap.
After walking slowly and quietly for more than two minutes, two small caves appeared on both sides of the aisle.
The two caves are not residences. The cave on the left is used to store daily necessities of many adventurers, as well as various clothes, which are placed randomly like garbage.
On the right side were mostly items dropped from monsters and various metal minerals, large and small, scattered around. Su Mo even saw a piece of solid steel among them.
Less than ten meters further in, there are two cave rooms on the left and right, which store weapons and armor of many adventurers, most of which are damaged.
On the other side were stored many natural weapons that had obviously been polished.
At this point, Su Mo stopped and did not move forward, because the front was already visible.
The road ended a few dozen meters away, and was replaced by two larger gourd-shaped cave chambers connected to each other.
The two gourd caves are large outside and small inside. The environment is in sharp contrast to the barren stone caves outside. It is like an independent paradise. The grass is everywhere, and there is even a pool in the center of the two caves...
No, that's not right!
That was not a pool at all, and that sticky liquid was not clean water at all.
Even monsters born in dungeons will feel hungry.
When hungry, some monsters will treat adventurers and monsters as food, however, most monsters still fill their stomachs by consuming certain liquids and various plants provided by the dungeon, the mother body.
The place where this liquid is located is called a granary by adventurers.
Here, there are actually two scaled-down food warehouses... After coming to this conclusion, Su Mo felt that this place was even more bizarre.
Continuing to explore carefully, we found that the narrowest part between the two caves was only about three or four meters wide, and the two caves combined were not as big as a football field.
As a base camp, this place is much smaller than Su Mo had imagined.
But if you think about it carefully, you will feel that this is reasonable.
The underground city is roughly in the shape of a pyramid. The lower you go, the more vast the area is. The fifteenth and sixteenth floors are definitely not small, but to say that they are vast is a bit of a stretch.
According to the guild, only in the deeper levels, that is, below the 37th floor, does the area of a single floor of the dungeon begin to be comparable to that of Orario on the surface. The area of the 15th and 16th floors is one-third of that of Orario, which is already quite remarkable.
The total area is so large, and there is an artificial maze outside the underground city - Knossos. It is incredible that there is such a large undeveloped area between the two gaps.
While thinking, Su Mo's gaze also rested on the tall stone seat inside the cave.
The tall stone seat was not exquisite but looked very much like a throne, and on it sat a very fat unicorn with long drooping ears and a blood jade-like spiral hair more than 30 centimeters long on its head.
Its body is at most one head taller than the enhanced unicorn rabbit, but at least twice as wide.
It was at this moment that Su Mo finally understood for whom the wide road was opened up.
The unicorn rabbits returned in groups and went straight into the innermost cave, placing today's harvest in front of the blood jade unicorn rabbit one by one.
The blood jade unicorn rabbit sitting on the high stone chair lowered its head to look at the spoils on the ground. Suddenly, the four-sided light curtain appeared again.
Like scanning, the information of each item was quickly collected and appeared on the light curtain, and in less than ten seconds the light curtain disappeared again. Finally, the Blood Jade Unicorn Rabbit waved and called out a few times to the left.
Soon, several horned rabbits appeared on the left. They brought a small piece of armor and two improved weapons to the rabbit group, then collected the spoils and retreated.
The armor and weapons were obviously rewards, but even as an enhanced species, the horned rabbit obviously had no concept of "thanking gratitude".
When the things were brought to them, the rabbits not only did not pick up their armor and weapons, but instead threw away their weapons, happily came to the pool and drank from it. From time to time, they picked up grass leaves from the side and stuffed them into their mouths.
But not all rabbits drink liquid and eat grass. Some enhanced species eat something different. Pieces of magic stone and pieces of blood-stained meat are delivered by the rabbits... They eat magic stone and blood food.
There are classes, support, rewards, distribution, and systems. This is already a small rabbit tribe.
Su Mo looked at the blood jade unicorn on the stone base secretly. For some reason, a history of the rabbit's struggle suddenly appeared in his mind.
Being too fat is not a reason to underestimate it. After seeing everything here, Su Mo has reason to suspect that the mutation of the unicorn rabbit on the thirteenth floor was most likely caused by the rabbit on the stone seat.
However, it ultimately failed to make the thirteenth floor its territory, and after being beaten by adventurers, it had no choice but to hide here.
He was blessed, wise, strong, and full of vigor. He commanded all the rabbits to fight the enemy. He won the first battle. However, the enemy had no moral principles and provided continuous reinforcements. He faced off, became anxious, was defeated, and retreated. He licked his wounds, accumulated strength, and made a comeback one day...
Chapter 68 Today, the Battle Rabbit
I couldn't stop my wandering thoughts for a while.
But looking at the tribal-like scene in front of him, Su Mo felt that this should not be his problem.
When a monster leader who has obtained the 'system', sits on the throne, and leads his kind to prosperity and civilization is right in front of him, the aura of the 'protagonist' is really too strong.
Stopping the meaningless associations, Su Mo held his breath, slowly moved forward, and carefully began to explore the situation in the first cave chamber.
It didn't matter what the rabbit did. The only important thing at the moment was to retreat or fight.
Standing about six or seven meters away from the exit, Su Mo looked back and forth between the two corners. In his field of vision, there were indeed some rabbits resting and eating in the first cave, but the number was not as many as he had imagined. The number of unicorn rabbits in the second cave was even smaller.
Elite troops strategy?
That’s right, it’s impossible to mass-produce troops in such a small area.
So, can we fight?
Su Mo moved forward and conducted a final investigation.
If there were hundreds of unicorn rabbits here and a more powerful leader, he would definitely leave without saying a word and call for others to come back.
Hundreds of unicorn rabbits with enhanced "capabilities", including enhanced and super enhanced ones, are not a situation he can face. But what if the opponent is only a few hundred enhanced unicorn rabbits and an overweight king?
Confirm the approximate number of enemies and assess their strength... retreating and calling for help are still the safest options. However, at this moment, both the suppressed emotions deep in his heart and the increasingly clear thoughts are telling Su Mo two words - adventure.
He needs an adventure.
