"Did changing the room structure cause a problem with the transmission device..." Anshui pondered.

"I said... Brother, can you quickly find a fingerprint and analyze the problem." The gunsmith complained.

It turned out that Dark Water, Suisside, and Gunsmith were also transported to a very small space. Unfortunately, they were still in a horizontal space like a coffin.

The gunsmith was face down and pressed at the bottom. Suisside and Anshui hugged their knees and curled up, with the soles of their feet facing each other and their faces facing the side. They were lying on top of the gunsmith. The three of them were almost completely unable to move.

Anshui said: "The trap should have been activated, but I can't see the message on the wall clearly. I don't know what it is."

"No matter what it is, please erase this unpleasant memory of mine." the gunsmith said.

Suisside also felt that this state was very bad. He lowered his head and said, "There is a handprint symbol in front of me. You can reach out and press it. How about pressing it now?"

Anshui said: "Wait a minute, I try to change the position of my eyes to observe the surrounding situation."

The gunsmith couldn't bear it anymore. In his opinion, it was useless no matter what angle An Shui adjusted his eyes to, even if he turned his two eyes into tentacles and stretched them out to stare... This place was like a coffin, with six walls. About 40% of the area was covered by the bodies of three adult men, making it impossible to see.

So before An Shui finished speaking, the gunsmith said: "I don't care! I'm going to press it! There's one in front of my forehead!" He did it as he said, without waiting for the other two to react, struggling and stretching out his hand. , pressed on the only handprint symbol he could reach.

The three people took advantage of the situation and carried out the teleportation. It was still the same, with the green light lighting up and then darkening. At the moment of teleportation, people will completely lose their sense of existence. This process may last less than a second, or they may have spent an eternity in another dimension... In short, they feel that they can open their eyes. By then, the person has regained consciousness.

This time they came to a curved corridor. The top was very high, but the width of the corridor was only about one meter. It felt a bit narrow for adults standing in it.

"What is this structure?" the gunsmith asked.

Anshui said: "This should be a circular room, like a ring."

"Why is the top so high? The sides are so narrow?" the gunsmith asked again.

"Do you remember the cylindrical room?" Darkwater answered.

The gunsmith was stunned, then raised his head to visually check the height: "Is this circular room just outside the previous room with the mechanical centipede?"

"It's very possible, but there may not be direct teleportation symbols between adjacent rooms. It may take several places to reach it." Anshui explained: "By the way, the trap in that room just now should be suffocation." , you two look ugly now."

When the gunsmith heard this, he turned around and looked at each other with Suisside behind him. The two were shocked when they saw the other's purple face: "Hey! Are you going to die?"

The corner of Suisside's mouth curled up; "You're not much better." He then thought of another thing and asked, "By the way, where did the other two go?"

Anshui replied: "When the same teleportation sigil is deviated due to changes in the room structure, the target pointing point should be the same. They will teleport to a room very similar to what we just experienced. With the consultant's ability... there is a high It is possible to see through the suffocation trap and escape from danger quickly, but where they will be teleported next is unpredictable.”

"What should we do? How can we find them?" Suisside was very nervous. For Steel Command, Vanessa is as important as the consultant in the Anti-Cross, maybe even more. . If it weren't for this adult's willful behavior, the Grand Commander would not be able to control her, and no one would dare to let her go down to the ruins in person.

"I have explained the various principles and possibilities of the ruins to the consultant. As long as he is not killed by the trap, there is a 90% chance that he will choose to stay where he is and wait. When I arrive at the core room, I will know the status of all the rooms. , then we can go over and rescue them. But the traps and defense mechanisms will still exist, and they cannot be turned off once they are opened." Dark Water's answer made Suisside feel a little relieved.

Suisside thought for a few seconds and asked: "Why can't the trap be closed? How could there be such a design?"

"It's simple, to prevent being turned off by intruders."

Suisside didn't quite believe this: "What if the builder of the ruins triggered a trap?"

The gunsmith smiled and said: "Hahaha... haven't you seen it yet? The traps here are useless to people of Anshui's race, so what if they can't be turned off? And it's absolutely impossible for a guy like Anshui to There is such a thing as 'misoperation'. In fact, I suspect that the concept of 'misoperation' does not exist in the dictionary of their race. Therefore, if the defense system of the ruins is activated, it must be triggered by an intruder. This design is very reasonable. It’s just harder to understand from our human perspective.”

Anshui continued: "If it weren't for carrying more treasures, I could enter the core alone, but in reality there are constant surprises. The equipment in those mountaineering bags is not important in the first place, the key is to hold the treasures, but the temperature drops This unexpected situation has made time urgent and limited, and now all the bags have been lost. I think the plan at this moment should have changed to taking as much treasure as possible, and then rescuing the consultant and Vanessa, and finally together Escape from the ruins.”

The gunsmith said: "The premise is that they are still alive after we reach the core."

Suisside said: "Okay, I understand, let's continue quickly."

An Shui suddenly said: "Before that, we must deal with this guard."

"What guards?" the other two asked in unison.

"The mechanical guard behind you." Dark Water looked at the black shadow approaching quickly behind Suiside. While answering the question, he put his hands on the wall, jumped up, landed and blocked Suiside and the shadow. between.

This road is very narrow, and on the same plane, the numerical advantage cannot be used. Facing the enemy can only be a one-on-one battle. The gunsmith and Suisside were both battle-hardened, and they immediately realized the problem. They both jumped into the air, placed their legs against the walls on both sides of the curved corridor, and stayed on it.

They could see from a high place that the mechanical guard confronting Dark Water didn't look like a large insect. It was clearly a person!

In order to help Suiside resist the opponent's attack, Anshui almost had no time to make a defensive posture after falling. The mechanical guard punched Anshui through the chest, and a pool of black water was sprinkled behind him like splashing ink. On the ground and walls, but to him, this kind of attack is completely childish.

In fact, Dark Water can completely withstand the damage of this punch and raise the surface skin near the force point to a hardness that is strong enough to withstand this punch. But he deliberately chose another method. It could be said that he used softness to overcome strength and allowed the opponent to penetrate his torso. As a result, the mechanical guard fell into a passive position at this moment. Its arm was dragged by the solidified and retracted black flesh, and it was stuck in Dark Water's chest and could not be withdrawn.

A green light flashed in An Shui's eyes, and he quickly raised his right hand. His forearm twisted and deformed into a jagged shape, and he slashed at the neck of the mechanical guard with a snort. Unexpectedly, after the muffled sound of gold and iron clashing, this blow not only failed to cut through the metal shell, but also did not leave even a scratch.

Dark Water's actions were all reasonable. His attacks took the possibility of this outcome into consideration beforehand, so he still had options left. Its jagged forearm suddenly spun like a chainsaw and began to cut the mechanical guard's neck. Harsh squeaking sounds echoed in the corridor, and golden sparks danced in the space originally composed of black metal walls and cyan light sources.

"Hey! Didn't you say that you can only imitate those animals with underdeveloped brains to generate mechanical guards? Why is this one in human form? Terminator?" The gunsmith saw that Anshui was fighting fiercely with the mechanical guards, so of course he couldn't be idle either. He took out the bone gun, switched to burst mode, and started covering fire from a high place, hoping to suppress the opponent with firepower. Although he never missed a shot, those light bullets seemed to have no effect on the mechanical guards.

The dark sailor was doing "carpentry work" on his boat, and his tone of voice was still the same: "Although its body looks humanoid, its brain may be..." Before he could finish speaking, the humanoid mechanical guard Then he leaned forward, climbed up hard with his hind legs, bounced up like a cannonball, and rushed towards the high Suisside.

Seeing this, the gunsmith fired three more shots, all of which hit the mechanical guard in the face, but the opponent's speed continued unabated and he was unscathed.

The teleportation to this circular room just now was caused by the gunsmith pressing the sigil randomly. The three of them probably did not advance further to the core, but retreated to a room on the periphery. However, judging from the strength of this mechanical guard, the security level here is still very high.

Suiside is not a fuel-efficient lamp. A person with strong abilities must not be much weaker. Facing the mechanical guard rushing towards him, he firmly clamped the opponent's neck with only one hand, stopping the opponent's rush. And the momentum is strong.

"Is it a toad used in the brain?" Suisside continued what An Shui had said. Facing this murder trap, his tone remained calm and composed. In fact, he has wanted to show off for a long time, but he has never had the chance. After all, my strength is also recognized by the organization. This place in Crown County is not easy to deal with. There are many strong players in the Steel Commandment. Can someone who can be entrusted with important tasks in Rome really be defeated by a small guy like you? Is the organization being looked down upon

Suisside remained calm on the surface, but he secretly increased his strength with his hands, trying to break the opponent's neck. But three seconds later, his expression changed and he exclaimed in shock: "The shell of this thing is actually so strong..."

This humanoid guard's neck couldn't even be cut by Dark Water's hand that turned into a chainsaw. Of course, it was impossible for Suisside to hold it with one hand and cause any damage. It's a pity that the mechanical guard's intelligence is not that of a human being, and is actually relatively low. Instead of using his hands to fight back, the mechanical guard's instinct suddenly opened its mouth, and a sharp mouthpart protruded from its mouth, hitting Suisside's face directly. Door.

"Oh...it turns out to be a flea." As Suisside spoke, he used his free hand to easily catch the strange mouthpart that shot towards him like lightning.

In fact, this half-human, half-flea mechanical guard was more powerful and deadly than any trap they had encountered before. If measured according to the usual theory of ability user levels, this "flea-man" mechanical guard could definitely be considered a trap. The work is strong. You know, in the outside world, except for the members of the factory, there are not many special cases in the world who can reach strong levels by relying on mechanical transformation. What's more, the mechanical guard in front of him doesn't even have a physiological part at all. It is composed of 100% pure machinery. The only person on earth who can create similar combat weapons is the Toy Marshal with the reverse cross.

The most incisive point is that this guard is designed using flea AI and genes combined with humans...

Fleas are insects that undergo complete metamorphosis. Of course, this "complete metamorphosis" refers to biology, not the mental aspect. The shell of this insect can bear a weight ninety times greater than its body weight, it can jump a distance of three hundred and fifty times its body length, it can go without eating any food for twelve months since it was a child, and it can live for half a year by sucking a few mouthfuls of blood... If there is a superhero - Flea Man, then this superhero's super power is that he can fall from a height of 1,000 meters to a hard ground without being hurt; he can withstand a weight of 1,000 kilograms and be hit from a height of 1,000 meters. On his own body, he can also jump the distance of a football field in one leap and so on.

All in all, the shell of this mechanical guard is extremely hard and its combat capabilities are extremely powerful. It is no wonder that the gunsmith's bone gun left no trace on its face.

It's a pity that when this guy meets Suyside, it can only be considered unlucky. The material of the mechanical guard is different from the black metal on the outer wall of the ruins, and there is no direct support from the core energy and outer repulsion system. Therefore, Suyside Said's abilities can be used on him.

An Shui stood on the floor, looking up, and his cyan eyes could see the changes in energy. In his sight, the mechanical guard was eroded by energy starting from the head, and the impact quickly expanded to the whole body, causing it to melt into molten iron in more than ten seconds.

After solving the trap, the two people who were standing on the high ground jumped back to the ground. The gunsmith immediately said to Suisside: "You have a good ability. If the temperature drops below zero later, you can use it to keep warm."

"I don't adjust the temperature accurately once and for all, but quickly heat or freeze quickly. A person's body temperature will be fatal if it drops to 25 degrees. If it is higher than 40 degrees, it is too high. If I use my ability on the human body, I will die quickly. It will cause the other person's death," Suisside replied.

After hearing this, the gunsmith could only show a helpless expression and shrug his shoulders.

Seeing that the guards had been dealt with, Anshui said: "You guys wait here, I'll look for the handprints. Once I find it, I will start the teleportation directly." After that, he swam briskly to a higher place and observed the wall along the curved corridor. cyan texture on the screen and move quickly.

If this ring-shaped room was indeed built into the huge cylindrical room just now, then the corridor would probably be quite far away, otherwise it would not have taken about two minutes for the mechanical guards to reach them.

… …

In another huge room, the consultant and Vanessa stood at both ends of the hexagonal platform, looking at the messy patterns on it for a long time, both of them silent.

This platform is one meter high, with each side more than two meters long. The six sides correspond to six patterns. There is also a larger pattern painted in the middle. The basic composition is still the same kind of cyan glowing texture, which is puzzling...

"Hey, genius, what did you see?" After more than ten minutes, Vanessa finally couldn't help but asked the consultant in a sarcastic tone.

In fact, she quietly raised her head to glance at the consultant every two minutes, but this guy always held his chin with his right hand and his right elbow with his left hand, posing like a schoolboy with the grim reaper, looking like he didn't need a beating.

"What? Are you getting impetuous when you don't see the fame?" the consultant replied with a smile.

Vanessa walked around him and took a few more glances at the platform from his point of view. She still felt that there was no difference. "Listening to your tone, do you see the trick?"

"Do you feel..." the consultant said thoughtfully.

Vanessa stared at him, looking at the consultant's expression, it looked like she had understood something. She also became nervous and asked, "What do you think?"

"It's very much like a bed," the consultant replied, his expression unchanged.

The next second, he was thrown over the shoulder and fell onto his back.

"As a woman, I always rely on violence..." The consultant turned over, face down, and slowly groped upwards along his lower back with one hand.

"What are you doing again?" Vanessa looked at his posture and thought it was funny.

"You can't feel even severe pain here. I have to feel the spine to confirm whether there is any dislocation or fracture." The consultant replied.

"You really care about your life." Vanessa said.

"It is better to be killed in good health than to live in sickness."

"Haha..." Vanessa smiled: "I seem to have heard a good way to torture you."

The consultant touched the spine and sat up after making sure everything was fine: "What is it? Inject me with the virus?"

"It would be a good choice to mutilate your limbs, and then cure it with surgery, deliberately inducing complications or something." She had a happy expression on her face, imagining the consultant's expression when he was tortured.

Looking at her expression, the consultant knew what she was thinking, and replied maliciously: "Did you know that people who are addicted to sugar, especially women, will probably have their life span shortened by ten to twenty years, and after middle age, they will ignore Genetically linked to obesity, gallstones and breast cancer."

"If you fall into my hands, you will probably be in a vegetative state by the time I reach middle age." Vanessa replied.

The consultant sneered: "I'm looking forward to seeing a fat woman who has undergone breast removal surgery, lost her hair, and wears dentures. The patient lying next to me. Every day, when she turns around, she can see a still very handsome man." Middle-aged vegetative.”

Vanessa raised her eyes and stared at the consultant, who also stared at her with similar eyes. They were thinking the same thing: If you fall into my hands, you will be dead...
