After receiving the coordinates of the safe passage entrance from Feng Na, it took an hour and forty-seven minutes to walk to the marked location. Originally, if he ran with all his strength, it would only take ten minutes, but he chose to walk over step by step, killing some human face moths along the way, and added some "food". Zero is a picky eater, and the face moth doesn't have enough muscle fibers, so it's the brains that snack on them the most.
Insect brain is rich in protein, amino acid and other no less than a hundred kinds of nutrients needed by the human body. Of course, the brains of the human face moth are not delicious at all. They are absolutely bitter and slightly astringent, and contain a small amount of neurotoxin, but Zero seems to be a hungry person. Often after killing a human face moth, he would use his bare teeth to open the monster's brain, and then carefully pick out the fist-sized brain that was wrapped in gray-white fat cortex and eat it in two or three bites.
Just like that, when Zero reached the entrance leading to the fifth-floor base, no less than a hundred human face moths had already hollowed out the heads of Zero. But even so, Zero still felt hungry and uncomfortable. Although worm brains are rich in nutrients, they are far inferior to the purified nutrients, which contain huge calories and nutrients. Therefore, although there are many snacks, about 5% of the energy is restored.
If you want to restore all the energy, you will probably have to eat thousands of moths, or even more. After all, supernatural beings have a lot of energy, and at the same time consume a lot of energy. If it weren't for the nutrients and various nutritionally compressed foods, the time spent eating by supernatural beings would probably account for two-thirds of the whole day, which is simply unimaginable.
When Zero appeared, Feng and the others were sitting cross-legged at the entrance. The living corpse Gemini was on guard nearby. Seeing zero o'clock, Gemini almost launched an attack. Fortunately, Eva stopped it in time.
Eva took a deep look at Zero, and in her eyes, the light of Zero's biological energy was dim. Although the energy is recovering, according to this slow speed, if he eats normally, it will take two days for Zero to recover to his best condition.
"You're injured." Eva said indifferently, her eyes flicked over the criss-crossing scars on Zero's body.
Zero took off his helmet, shook his head and said, "I can't die. It's you guys, what's going on is really troublesome."
Feng jumped up on the ground, gestured with his hands and said exaggeratedly: "Fish, such a big fish. Their speed is comparable to that of a speedboat, and their bite force is five times that of sharks, but more importantly, there are at least a thousand of them .”
After Feng Yitong's incoherent expression, Su pushed him away impatiently. Under Su's relatively organized expression, Zero roughly understood the situation of the fifth-floor base. The fifth-floor base was already full of stagnant water. When Feng and the others entered the base, the water level was only up to the knees. But 10 minutes ago, during the third survey, Su found that the water level was halfway down.
The trouble is that the water in the fifth-floor base is almost occupied by the descendants of the crypt lords. Those extremely fast, ferocious and bloodthirsty strange fish swim in the water all the time, and there is almost no way to get past their inner, outer, and layered layers. blockade line.
A tactical board was placed on the ground, and the floor plan of the five-story base was being displayed on the screen. The buildings of various shapes above indicate different functions. There are offices, testing rooms, laboratories, archives and so on. The task items of Ling and his party were placed in the archive room. From the screen, the distance from the exit of the safe passage to the archive room was more than two thousand meters even in a straight line. And if you follow the route given by the brain, the distance will be even longer. What's more, this distance is full of red light spots.
Each dot of light represents a strange fish, so there are at least four hundred of them blocking the way forward. With such a large number, unless Feng or Eva is willing to show real strength, it will be difficult for them to break through from the front.
"It's not completely impossible." After understanding the situation in the base, Zero said lightly: "The first way is to find out the location of the archive room and directly open a gap in it. But now we don't have enough equipment and gunpowder at hand. , so this method should not work. Now, we can only use the second method... "
In the fifth-floor base, the water level is still rising. The freezing cold sewage comes from the underground water veins outside the base. Originally, the low temperature in the west caused the underground water veins to freeze. However, in order to provide an environment for future generations to grow, the Crypt Lord insisted on using his huge biological energy to heat up the frozen groundwater. , melted, but poured into the underground base. The temperature of these sewage is extremely low, but because it is ground water, there is very little radiation. If it is taken to the surface for certain treatment, it can also be turned into clean water for ordinary drinking in the wilderness.
In the new era, the definition of clean water is different from clean water, let alone drinking water with low radiation. The higher the level of clean water, the less radiation in the water. But now, this lowest-level clean water area has become a breeding ground for strange fish.
Here they forage, grow, and eventually evolve into amphibious life like a mother.
However, not all monster fish can evolve into crypt lords. Among the thousands of strange fish, only one crypt lord could be born. From birth, they not only have to fight against the environment, but also have to compete with their own kind. When there is food, the monster fish still have to hunt together, but if there is no food, they will fight in advance.
Just like now, a few strange fish are biting. They chased each other at an extremely fast speed, and when they seized the opportunity, they bit their companions fiercely from their giant mouths. With the frighteningly large bite range of the strange fish, once it is bitten by the same, it means that it will lose a small half of its body. It didn't take long for the waters to be filled with blue blood.
The blood of the same kind has attracted more companions to join this competition. Gradually, more and more fish corpses floated on the water with their white bellies turned over, becoming victims of this cruel gladiatorial fight.
Just as the battle became more intense, a strong smell of blood drifted into the battlefield in the water. The madness in the eyes of all the strange fish faded away, and they used their special organs to distinguish the source and category of the bloody smell in the water. Soon, images of the man-faced moth appeared in their minds. For the first delicious meal after birth, the fish are still very satisfied with the strange taste of the human face moth.
Now, the smell of blood in the water piqued their interest. So the strange fishes stopped killing the same kind, they flapped their tails, or used the jet organs on their tails to speed up, and swam towards the source of the smell one after another.
It was a testing room, and most of the room had been flooded with sewage. There are numbers on the room as signs, and at the entrance of the gate, there are more than a dozen human face moths fixed on the wall by sharp objects passing through their bodies. The sharp objects were not nailed to the vital points of the moths, so they did not die immediately. It's just that the continuous flow of insect blood from the wound to the surface of the water made the body temperature of the face moth keep dropping.
The human face moth struggled, but couldn't break free. In the darkness, a crimson light glowed at the entrance of the detection room. Then a strange fish came in from the door, and it quickly swam under a human face moth. But the human face moth was a certain distance from the water surface, and the strange fish opened its mouth to bite, but it bit the air. But the strange fish was not reconciled, it sank into the water, and after a turning point, it quickly rushed to the surface of the water.
At the moment when it broke the water surface, two jets of water spewed out from the tail of the strange fish with a huge propulsion, providing the strange fish with a distance of nearly five meters to jump out of the water!
The strange fish jumped up and down, and landed towards the moth like lightning. It opened its mouth wide, bit the moth directly, and then pulled it down suddenly. The human face moth immediately followed the strange fish and fell into the water. The water boiled immediately, but calmed down in an instant. Then, a large number of blood bubbles floated from the water.
At this time, the sound of water was loud, but more and more strange fish swam into the testing room. They shatter the calm water surface like sharks that choose to eat people, and repeat the actions of sinking into the water, falling out of the water, and tearing their prey one by one. Immediately, the testing room of about 300 square meters was filled with strange fish, at least a hundred in number!
When the strange fishes were busy hunting, a gun was thrown in from the door. At the same time, the door of the testing room was quickly closed and locked.
*After skimming a graceful arc in the air, it landed gently on the head of a strange fish. Naturally, the strange fish didn't know what it was, but when the eye rolled in front of its eyes, a fiery air flow was suddenly released from the inside of the eye. Then, orange light filled the eyes of the strange fish.
The energy released by the high-energy gun is exerted to the extreme in the limited space of the testing room. The flame of the explosion burns the air, creating a vacuum that provides a favorable environment for the flow of energy. So the terrible shock wave destroyed everything they involved, the sewage was blown up and splashed everywhere, the strange fish and moths were directly torn into pieces, and the testing room was shaken violently. Although it did not collapse in the end, there were shocking cracks, revealing various complex circuits hidden in the metal walls.
When the door of the testing room was shaken by the explosion, a puff of thick smoke mixed with fishy smell floated out from inside. Seeing this situation, Mapei gave a thumbs up.
The team captured the dozens of human face moths from the base on the fourth floor, and then deliberately nailed them to the wall of the testing room. The smell of blood that the strange fish smelled was because Feng deliberately collected blood from the human-faced moth, and then threw it into the fighting strange fish. Otherwise, I don't know how long it will take for the blood of the moth in the testing room to flow naturally to the area occupied by the strange fish, and the blood is diluted with sewage, and the smell may not be strong enough to attract the attention of the strange fish.
All these well-planned traps are only the first part of the whole plan. Next, the loud noise from the explosion attracted the nearby strange fish. But they are greeted by lines of fire crossed by bullets. Driven by instinct, the school of fish that had been hit head-on chose to retreat temporarily, but the deep murderous intent that suddenly soared from behind them told the school of fish that this was a trap that never returned.
Just behind the strange fishes, Eva broke through the water with a sword and killed them. Beside her, there are giant twins who are like living corpses. This lord broke through the water and charged, and the tyrannical aura formed deeply shocked the descendants of these crypt lords.
These layers of traps overlap, but they are the first half of Zero's plan, which is called luring the enemy. And after the sight of the strange fish was diverted, the vacant passage naturally provided convenience for Zero's plan to go deep into the second half of the base!
