Deep in the Blood Demon Flower Forest.
"Haven't found the source of the mutation yet, our rainbow goblin mercenary group has lost two people, ahem."
Long red hair, eyes full of strange light, as if two whirlpools are constantly spinning.
Orangutan corpses were everywhere.
It is said to be an orangutan, but it just looks a bit like that.
The forelimbs of these monsters are much stronger than the hind limbs, and they are extremely explosive. There are a pair of bone wings on the back, flowing out purple blood and a foul smell. .
"Captain, that feeling of uneasiness is getting stronger and stronger, the feeling of being secretly watched."
"Since it has been confirmed that this is pollution from the land of nightfall, we are not those small mercenary groups, you know what this means!"
The two senior mercenaries were talking to each other.
One is a priest of an unknown temple, shrouded in a white veil, with a graceful body that makes people imagine, and a black cat with two tails stands on his shoulder.
The other is a shadow assassin, holding a dagger with fangs, the blade is long and short, like a phantom.
"Of course I know."
The blood-colored long-haired man took a deep breath.
"Of course I feel that oppressive atmosphere, even though it has tried its best to hide it, it still makes me feel creepy, but the Sky Shadow Mercenary Group has already gone there first, even if there is danger, they will come Take it, let's go!"
…
two days later.
Rest at night and advance during the day.
As Lei Luo and the two-headed ogre got closer and closer to the core pollution area, the mutated creatures encountered became stronger and more aggressive, and their forms became more and more ferocious.
Fortunately, there is a hint of the mind of this two-headed ogre.
For these brutal but simple-minded creatures, psychic suggestion, like hypnotism, works surprisingly well.
"That's the fat blood lair! The wizards used innumerable corpses to help those devils build lairs!"
As it got deeper and deeper into the fog of pollution, the thin head of the two-headed ogre suddenly said.
"You mean, this mountain is piled up with corpses?"
Lei Luo repeated it.
On the blood-colored hill, there were countless fleshy whiskers, each more than ten meters high, wriggling slowly like aquatic plants. Due to the dense fog, Lei Luo couldn't judge its volume.
It seems that once foreign objects approach, they will be swarmed and attacked by them, which looks really terrifying.
"There are also trees, plants and water, as well as some special things, in short, those things that the wizards summon after they have prepared everything."
"They will regret coming here!"
Lei Luo comforted the ogre.
Wait for the two to approach.
Hundreds of meters away, a large number of blood crows can be vaguely seen hovering at low altitude. It really looks like a terrifying hill formed by the accumulation of flesh and fat. Red and white are mixed, and the huge soft tissue on the body surface is constantly wriggling.
"Don't get close, those tentacles are dangerous!"
The two-headed ogre reminded Lei Luo, and added: "Very dangerous!"
"Of course I know."
"Are you sure this is the source of the forest's mutation?"
Although Lei Luo's vegetation elf physique could already feel the deep malice in the forest spreading from here, he still asked.
"It must be here!"
The color of an ogre's determination.
He thought of something again.
"By the way, there is an underground river below, which may be helpful for you to sneak in."
"underground river?"
Lei Luo was full of interest, and smiled harmlessly to humans and animals: "It's not helpful to me, it's helpful to us. Don't you want to rescue your people yourself?"
Lei Luo patted the ogre.
"Think about it, as long as you rescue them, you will be their savior, and the benefits will come then!"
This two-headed ogre, with a fat head that barely talks, seems to be used only for eating.
From this head, Lei Luo could feel the power of a kind of flame, the kind of flame full of sulfur breath.
And this thin head, during the two days of communication with Lei Luo, he was not only observing Lei Luo, but also consciously hiding some secrets.
This kind of wisdom is obviously beyond the scope of ogres.
It seems that the reason why he can live till now is only one of the reasons why he has hinted in his mind.
At this moment.
There were "boom" and "boom" vibrations in the distance.
Fire rained down from the sky continuously, and a large-scale explosion occurred. The energy fluctuations were thrilling, and the pink mist was blown away by a lot.
Immediately afterwards, the mercenaries bursting out with majestic fighting spirit, like golden giants three to four meters high, rushed towards the fat blood nest.
Due to the distance between them, even though the dense fog was blown away by the energy fluctuations, Lei Luo and the two-headed ogre could still only see shadowy and powerful figures through the fluctuations of the fog, shining streaks of grudge and energy after the explosion. Dazzling light.
"They actually stormed this fat lair! They don't know the horror here, they are dead!"
The two-headed ogre screamed.
With such an exaggerated expression of panic and excitement, it doesn't look like an ogre.
"Hey, from the first day they became mercenaries, they should be ready to die. With them here to restrain us, our infiltration process might be smoother."
…
An underground river with swift currents.
In the cold and humid environment, Lei Luo stretched out his hand and scooped up a handful of cold water. Feeling the strong smell of pollution in the water, he sprinkled it back into the underground river again.
"That chilling malice is spreading around through this underground river."
The ogre looked at the dark river in surprise and said: "In the past, the water flow was not so fast at all. Those wizards must be doing something wrong!"
hiss...
In the icy water, accompanied by a hissing sound, a black tail slowly stretched out, about two meters high.
At the tip of the tail, there are powerful claws that open and close constantly, and there are eyes on both sides.
When most people see this, their first reaction is to judge that this must be a water snake creature. However, as a star scholar with a background in evolutionary mysteries, Lei Luo noticed a huge black shadow underwater. approached the two of them.
"My mental suggestion doesn't work!"
The two-headed ogre retreated instinctively.
This is below the fat blood nest, and the gravity fireball explosion is likely to cause unnecessary trouble.
Lei Luo let out a cold snort, and a layer of black rock suddenly appeared on the surface. Wisps of black smoke emitted from the rock, and in a blink of an eye, it turned into a three-meter-high pitch-black stone giant.
After the second evolution, the essence of the star screen has been greatly improved. Although the physique and strength of the astral body are not as exaggerated as metal war weapons, they are still enough to make some low-level scholars despair.
Before the black shadow under the water rushed up, Lei Luo took the initiative to dive into the water with a "plop".
Crash! Crash! Crash!
Water splashes violently.
The sound of struggling and roaring continued continuously.
After a while, the dark river was turbulent and gradually calmed down.
While the two-headed ogre was waiting to swallow its saliva, a huge flat crustacean body surfaced, and with a huge force, it threw the blue-blooded monster ashore.
"It's really dangerous down there."
The stone giant muttered to himself and looked at the surface of his body, unknowingly, several different types of parasites were attached to it.
A mutated leech with thick arms and snail-like eyes kept trying to penetrate the rocky skin on Lei Luo's back and get into his body.
Two conch-like creatures with barbed carapaces like fishhooks, the creatures in the shells seem to be highly corrosive, attached to both sides of the stone giant's shoulder armor, they actually made a "sizzling" sound, but thinking at this speed It would probably take a few days to dissolve the stone giant's defenses, even without considering regeneration.
An eel-like creature with a sucker-like mouth sucked on Lei Luo's thigh.
However, this guy was more clever. After Lei Luo came ashore, he immediately let go of his mouth and fled back into the river.
"The parasites here are very large in size. According to the explanation of the evolutionary mystery, there must be an unusually large host here, and if I guess correctly, it should be the fat blood nest above."
With the instinct of a scholar, Lei Luo collected these parasites as specimens.
…
I don't know how long I've been diving.
finally.
Lei Luo and the ogre came to a cave. On the stone wall of the cave, there were many things that looked like meat film. Lei Luo released the stone giant's astral body and changed into a bachelor's uniform again.
"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo my blood."
The ogre was cleaning up the giant parasites on its body, crying like a wronged goblin.
The fat film slowly squirmed as if it had life, and there were many firefly-like light spots swimming inside. Lei Luo observed the light spots that kept swimming in these blood vessels.
The scalpel slid through.
"Well, do you have a sense of pain?"
The peristalsis turned into violent convulsions, and a large amount of yellow liquid flowed out from the incision, not the red as Lei Luo imagined, but a kind of pus, with a somewhat fishy smell.
Not for a while.
The pus formed a layer of scab, and when Lei Luo's scalpel was scratched again, it was obvious that the scab was harder.
"Adaptive evolution?"
Thinking this way, Lei Luo released a fireball and landed on another piece of flesh.
Pus flowed out again, and after a brief repair, Lei Luo's second fireball landed on the scab, and the fireball almost lost its effectiveness after burning.
Of course, this is just an 8-degree fireball released by the flame ring.
After constant experimentation, Lei Luo looked at the dense dots of light constantly swimming in the meat fat, quickly cut off a piece of meat fat, cut open the light dots in the meat fat, and found this earthworm-like worm. The head is shining with spots of light.
"Huh? This thing seems to be the larvae of the flesh and blood tentacles on the derivative beast?"
After thinking for a while, Lei Luo took out a small piece of black magic iron.
really.
This shiny little thing, when it saw the metal, immediately attached itself excitedly, and had an intimate reaction to the metal, like a seed that took metal as soil, took root and germinated, sticking to the metal with streaks of blood.
If you give it another piece of metal, it will be a miniature derivative beast.
As soon as he thought about it, Lei Luo threw another piece of copper to this little thing. As a result, after sticking to the copper, the little thing stood up vigorously like a warrior with an iron glove.
"interesting."
Lei Luo stretched out his index finger to fiddle with the little thing, and the little thing went crazy and kept attacking Lei Lu's index finger with astonishing strength.
