This isn't a souls-like game at all.

The dung beetle on the shoulder was very excited. The smell seemed to have no effect on it, and it seemed to enjoy this environment.

"Huh? Is this a crab?"

Soon, Ye Yiyi found the first living creature in the pipe.

It was a small crab lurking in the green liquid.

It is not big, about the same size as Ye Yiyi's palm.

I don’t know if it’s been dyed because it’s been there for too long, but the crab’s shell has turned a green color.

"This color looks very toxic!"

Ye Yi thought to himself, then he raised his foot and crushed the crab with the metal shoe.

Soul Echo +1

"It's so little..." He shook his head and continued walking forward.

But since there are small crabs here, there should be big crabs deep in the pipe.

This one is not just big, it is a giant crab that is two or three meters high and five or six meters wide!

In addition, there should be giant shrimps and giant bullfrogs here. The giant slugs we saw in the deep pit of the factory building should also be here.

These warm and friendly animal friends are particularly big and have a lot of blood.

Although large, they are not difficult to deal with.

The really difficult ones to deal with are often "small animals" like mice and curse frogs.

"I heard the sound of mice..."

Ye Yiyi walked for five or six minutes and finally arrived at the T-shaped fork in the pipeline.

There is a pipe on each side. The left side is pitch black, but a squeaking sound comes from deep inside the right pipe.

That was undoubtedly the sound of mice.

Ye Yiyi stopped at the fork in the road, then held the ferociously cut tooth in both hands and pointed the tip of the gun at the pipe.

He had no plans to use magic against the enemy for the time being.

Although mice are very flexible, they can only do so in a spacious area.

In the narrow pipe, the mouse's advantage of flexibility was completely lost in front of Ye Yiyi's spear.

He still has 4 sips of the blue bottle on him, and he is currently using fairy mint to slowly restore his blue energy.

Minimizing unnecessary resource consumption and managing all types of resources during the development process is a compulsory course for players of Souls-type games.

"Squeak... squeak..."

As the sound grew louder, soon a mouse entered the range of the waist lamp.

It was a giant rat, one meter long, covered in green fur and covered in a lot of rotten pustules.

Because the mice have lived in a dark tube for a long time, their eyes have degenerated and they can no longer see.

Therefore, its sense of smell and hearing are extremely sensitive, and it can smell unusual odors or hear vibrating sounds from a long distance.

Sensing Ye Yiyi's presence, the big rat instantly became irritable.

With the help of the waist lamp, Ye Yiyi could clearly see the green saliva flowing from the mouse's mouth.

The huge boil on its back bulged up and down, beating like a heart.

"After this thing dies, won't this abscess suddenly explode?"

Ye Yiyi imagined that scene and her face turned dark.

"Squeak!!"

The mouse pounced on him violently, and Ye Yiyi aimed at its head and stabbed it with his gun!

The pitch-black tip of the gun accurately pierced the mouse's forehead, and a ball of bright orange-red flame rose up, burning a large area of ​​green fur!

"Squeak!!"

The mouse uttered a miserable wail and rolled over in the green filth.

As the mouse rolled, the abscesses on its body burst and large streams of green pus flowed out.

"How disgusting!"

Ye Yiyi fired several shots at lightning speed, hitting the soft abdomen under the mouse's belly.

As the wound opened up and bright red blood flowed out, it was enveloped by orange-red flames, and soon thick smoke rose in the pipe.

“Squeak!!”

Amidst shrill screams, the flames slowly died out.

The big green-haired rat was charred all over and lay on the ground without a sound.

Soul Echo +88

"Well, Mao Duo is indeed weak to fire. Fortunately, I had the foresight to embed a flame gem on the gun!"

Ye Yiyi performed a few gun tricks, shook off the blood mixed with pus, and then touched the red gem at the end of the gun handle with satisfaction.

Next it's time to collect the loot.

Rats, while disgusting, can also provide useful items.

Ye Yiyi took out an Eagle Claw Knight Sword and cut open the charred body of the rat.

After searching through it, he found a black bead.

[Source of the Curse (2)]

"Indeed! A level 2 curse source is equivalent to 100 soul echoes that can be used at any time."

Ye Yiyi took out a piece of linen and wiped the beads, then put them away.

The rats in the game are enemies that are always prone to dropping the source of the curse. This is probably related to their living environment and their eating habits of accepting anything.

Leaving a rainbow stone here, Ye Yiyi stepped over the mouse and walked towards the pipe on the right.

The place where he entered the pipeline was at the foot of the mountain in the western suburbs. If he wanted to go deeper into the pipeline in the lower city, he naturally had to go east.

Continuing forward, we encountered many big green rats on the way.

Facing Ye Yiyi, who was wearing armor and holding a spear, these rats posed no threat.

Solve them one by one, and harvest 528 Soul Echoes, 3 Level 1 Sources of Curse, and 2 Level 2 Sources of Equal Spirits.

"The explosion rate is quite high...but this also shows that the remaining curse deep in the pipe is quite serious." Ye Yiyi thought to himself.

Continuing forward, another fork in the road soon appeared in front of us.

But this time the fork in the road is a crossroads.

"These metal pipes are very similar. If there are no obvious landmarks, it is very easy to get lost if you wander around here."

Ye Yiyi left a rainbow stone a little further away from the intersection, indicating that he came from this pipeline.

Then he continued on his way, heading eastward with unwavering determination.

"That's true, but I'm not sure if the direction has deviated..." He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "I wish I had a compass."

After killing 7 more rats along the way and roasting them with flames, the soul echo on Ye Yiyi's body was close to 1w2.

"This is what makes farming so satisfying! We've also harvested quite a few curse sources. We'll count them all after we get out."

But on the road afterwards, Ye Yiyi never encountered a mouse again.

Thinking about it carefully, it was probably because he was too reckless in grilling the mice, which caused a burnt smell on his body. When the little mice smelled the smell, they dared not come.

But the mice didn't dare to come, but other small animals showed up.

After passing several forks in the road and walking onto a pipe leading diagonally upwards, Ye Yiyi finally discovered another animal friend.

"Fuck! Is this a slug!?"

The walls of the pipe in front of me were densely covered with various dark green slugs.

These slugs are not big, only slightly longer than a mouse, but there are so many of them that it makes people feel uneasy when they see them so densely packed!

"But why are there so many slugs here?"

Ye Yiyi was a little confused. These slugs crawled slowly and gathered in groups. What did they usually eat?

Could it be eating mice?

Just as he was wondering, suddenly a green slug raised its head with two tentacles and spit out a pool of green unknown liquid towards Ye Yiyi.

"Grass!"

He was startled and quickly used Storm Step to dodge behind him.

The green liquid fell to the ground, but it did not make a sizzling sound as Ye Yiyi had imagined, and then melt a hole in the pipe.

On the contrary, these green liquids merged into the green liquid on the ground, becoming indistinguishable from each other.

"I understand now. The green liquid I saw along the way was spit out by these slugs!" Ye Yiyi, with green smoke floating above his head, suddenly realized.

He stepped back a distance, then took out a molten pot and threw it at the swarm of slugs in the distance.

"boom!!"

Amidst a huge bang, shock waves and flames rushed out along the pipe.

The simplified light screen around Ye Yiyi was also flashed with the prompt of soul echo.

He nodded and found that this attack had killed at least more than twenty slugs.

Obtain a total of 1210 Soul Echoes.

"So, a little slug is worth 50 Soul Echoes?"

He stepped into the blasted slug swarm, scanned the area, and suddenly found a filthy human skeleton among the green corpses.

"No wonder there are so many slugs here, it turns out they are fed by this thing."

Ye Yiyi bent down to check and found black and red torn clothes and a wet satchel covered with green liquid around the skeleton.

"This is a priest of the Holy Blood Order. Did he get lost? Otherwise, why would he die here?"

Ye Yiyi was a little surprised, then opened the bag to check.

"Oh my god!!" Looking at the things in the bag, his eyes suddenly widened.

Chapter 71: Hospitable Animal Friends

This shoulder bag, covered with green liquid and buried deep in the pipe for who knows how many years, has finally seen the light of day.

After opening it, Ye Yiyi discovered that there was a pile of damp parchment scrolls inside.

But what was beyond his imagination was that light screens actually popped out from these parchments!

"It's absolutely amazing!" Ye Yiyi couldn't help but exclaim.

The presence of a light curtain means that these documents belong to the category of props and are extremely important!

He pulled out a sticky, folded piece of parchment and then checked the light curtain.

[Map fragment: Lower drainage pipe]

Item Description: A fragment of the map of the lower drainage pipe.

The drainage pipes are crisscrossed and full of dangers.

It is said that there are terrible monsters and terrible curses hidden in it.

In order to conceal their identities, the Order of the Holy Blood established a secret church here.

"Shit! I'm so lucky! It's actually a map fragment!"

Ye Yiyi's face lit up with joy!

This is the first piece of map fragment he has obtained since entering the game!

"With this, I don't have to wander around this damn place like a headless chicken!"

He tried to open the map, but nearly tore the thick parchment.
