Chapter 305 Devil Leeches and Corrupt Human Mushrooms

"General, it is not difficult to decipher the code of this room. But the trouble is that the authorization level required is very high, which looks like a bloodline authority restriction. Unless you can find specific 'authorized items', such as identity cards and the like. Otherwise, it may take a long time to crack it.”

 “Ask the people below if anyone has found anything similar in the ruins.”

 “Yes, my lord.”

“By the way, can it be opened violently?”

"It's almost impossible. I used a seventh-level [cutting card] and couldn't leave any trace on this door. The entire room is made of a special alloy, and there are also demigod-level restrictions. I estimate it must be at least a ninth-level Only with the right and left spells can it be possible to destroy the restrictions on the door."

ˆ “.”

After everyone got excited, they were immediately poured cold water on reality.

The code door in this room cannot be opened, which means they will have to spend a long time here.

Legion commander Heman frowned as he watched.

 But I can’t think of any other way.

 The next scene sent chills down everyone's spine.

This is an ancient demonic insect that can **** the dragon dry.

 At some point some translucent floating creatures appeared in the water.

Broken armor, split and regenerated, almost immortal.

They rushed towards everyone in the ruins like a violent rage.

 “It can’t be killed, it can’t be killed at all!”

 It looks like an inconspicuous leech, but the blood is highly corrosive after being cut off.

 That's when they discovered something unusual.

 “Help! Help me quickly!”

ˆ “.”

 Looking at the poison expert Heather, he felt as if he was facing an enemy. Everyone, including the regiment commander Herman, immediately realized that something was wrong.

 People around were not aware of the seriousness of the matter, and were looking for leeches on each other's bodies.

 In a blink of an eye,

Looking closely, I don’t know where they came from. The water was densely packed in all directions, and countless insects were swarming towards everyone in the water.

 The ghost thing that has been extinct for a long time, I didn’t expect to see it here!

However, at this moment, Heather, the seventh-level voodoo master, was the first to sense something, and suddenly looked stern: "No, there is something in the water!"

Hydralisk Legion members gathered around the central control room, trying to figure out how to open the door.

 In large numbers, they are a fatal threat to the top powerhouses!

As he said that, the seventh-level strong man had a ghostly expression on his face, as if he had guessed some terrible consequences, and shouted urgently: "Quick! Everyone, get out!"

ˆ “.”

Those leeches are like chameleons, able to change colors according to the environment.

I don’t know whether it was because the voice alerted some intelligent beings, but the translucent bugs that were sneaking quietly in the water no longer concealed themselves, and suddenly turned fluorescent.

At this reminder, everyone suddenly woke up and looked at the water.

"Damn it, what the **** is this? How did it get into my armor? Help me get it out."

So when people discovered it, everyone had more or less leeches attached to their body.

 The atmosphere of terror spread among the crowd in an instant.

At this time, the voodoo master "Black Widow" Heather also picked up a bug and observed it carefully.

 From one worm to two?

Like a copy, exactly the same!

Seeing this bizarre scene, she suddenly thought of something, and her expression changed drastically: "Be careful, this is the [Abyss Devil Leech]!"

 The light in the research institute is already dim and visibility is very low.

“Not good! These leeches have paralyzing toxins and they are sucking blood like crazy!”

 The tricky thing is that they are like mosquitoes and you don’t feel the bite at all.

The insect's body, which was broken into two parts, was still twisting. There was no sign of death at all, and the wound was healing visibly.

“Mark, it seems you have it on your arm too. No, it’s also on your neck and legs.”

In the blink of an eye, the water up to my waist and thighs seemed to turn into fluorescent color.

 Almost instantly, green fluorescence filled the entire pool.

Those adventurers who had no time to react were instantly covered by hundreds of leeches.

“Hey, Lao Luo, why is there a bug stuck to your neck? I’ll help you pull it off. What’s going on? You can’t pull it off?”

By the time the others discovered the problem, they had already injected toxins and sucked a lot of blood.

 “Oh damn! Why are there so many bugs!”

 In an instant he became a deadly killer.

Since Toad has determined that there is a high probability of a "jar" here, they have a reason why they will never give up.

 It was a small insect that was harmless to humans and animals just now.

 Insects can easily bite through the protective aura, curse seals, and even dragon scales, sucking blood like crazy.

 Anyone immersed in water will be surrounded by insects.

 Can't be killed or thrown away.

 A worm, as if a **** had been cut in its body, and blood was pouring out.

But in the blink of an eye, the bodies of those low-level card masters shriveled up almost visibly.

I could only hear the continuous sound of falling into the water.

 Death is like reaping wheat.

Once you fall into the water, you will be immediately enveloped in green fluorescent light, and the insects will be poured into your body through your mouth and nose, leaving you with no chance of survival.

 Even if there are people around, no one can save him.

 Everyone has too much time to look after themselves.

On the second floor of the huge research institute, wails and screams could be heard one after another.

“Physical damage is useless, use fire! Alchemical salt, alchemical salt is useful!”

“No, whoever brought too much alchemical salt, please help me quickly”

 “Quick! Burn it with fire and drain out the water element!”

ˆ “.”

 The adventurers tried every means, but physical means were almost completely useless.

Even if it is cut into dozens of pieces by the sword energy, those leech fragments can still survive.

 In a blink of an eye, they turned into new living bodies.

Other than being crushed into ash, it is almost impossible to kill.

Even if it is an elemental attack, except for the burning effect of fire, other elemental damage is very limited to this insect.

And there are so many bugs that they have quietly attached themselves to almost everyone.

 If you really want to use fire to kill insects, you have to burn the people together.

not far away.

Ji Xun had quietly retreated to the iron cage where the toad was imprisoned.

 But even he felt very solemn in his heart.

 He expected trouble,

But I never expected that there would be so many bugs.

  Simply endless!

And these [Abyss Devil Leeches] are different from those encountered outside.

The bloodline here seems to be more advanced and the abilities are weirder.

Unkillable, cut off regeneration, naturally high magic resistance

Ji Xun’s pupils dilated and he had a panoramic view of the entire research institute.

He also discovered that these bugs did not attack erratically, but first quietly clung to the low-level card masters on the periphery.

By the time he was discovered, the encirclement had already been completed.

Ji Xun thought: "Are these insects intelligent?"

Just like ants, an individual may not have complex consciousness, but their group will have some collective consciousness.

 Or, what kind of insect king is there?

The voodoo master "Black Widow" Heather obviously knew the origin of this bug better. Looking at the scene in front of him, he was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat.

Just now, Heather thought she could try to clean up the bugs, but after seeing the "wisdom" of the bugs, she immediately realized something was wrong.

 Her tone became sharp again, and she shouted loudly: "Back away! There may be a Leech Emperor!"

If it were just a devil leech that acted on instinct, it wouldn't be a big problem.

 But once there is an Insect King, it means

 They are not just swarms of insects, but also individuals!

Hearing this, the legion commander Heman beside her, who had transformed into a fire dragon and breathed fire everywhere, did not even think about fighting. He shook his body and burned up a large area of ​​water nearby with a mouthful of dragon flame. When the battle broke out, the power of the dragon swept through the entire space.

However, when Ji Xun saw this, his pupils shrank slightly, and he felt more and more that something was wrong: "The life level of this leech is not worse than that of a giant dragon?"

At this moment, the ten-meter-plus red dragon that Herman transformed into was also covered with fluorescent bugs. Although it was not bitten through the protective field, countless bugs were also devouring the energy overflowing from his body.

The most outrageous thing is that Long Wei didn't knock the bug away?

This also means that this devil leech is either not lower than the seventh level, or has a life level similar to that of a giant dragon.

 No matter what the situation is, it is not good news for Ji Xun.

Ji Xun quietly left the crowd, thus avoiding the area where the leech army attacked the most violently.

At the same time, because his own blood is contaminated, he will feel uncomfortable after being absorbed by the bugs, which also makes it easy for him to detect bugs attached to his body.

 The scalpel cuts randomly, but it’s okay for the time being.

Ji Xun followed the people around him and ran toward the second floor door.

 Originally, I wanted to temporarily avoid these ubiquitous insects.

But before he could even run to the entrance, he saw countless people on the first floor rushing towards the second floor in fear.

 Looking at the people on the second underground floor trying to run out, some people from the first floor shouted to stop them: "Don't go up to the first floor, there are highly toxic spores in the air outside!"

As soon as the two groups of people met, a closer look revealed that a terrifying scene was happening to those who were pouring into the second floor of the institute from outside.

As they ran, some granulations were visible on their skin.

Almost instantly, the granules absorb nutrients from the body and turn into colorful mushrooms.

 Each one looks like a "mushroom man" from a fairy tale.

 There are countless colorful mushrooms growing on its body.

 But the more prosperous the mushrooms were, the shriveled up the bodies of those people.

 As he ran, he turned into a mushroom bag that provided nutrients for the mushrooms.

What’s even more terrifying is that as they ran, the mature mushrooms also had some dusty spores floating in the air.

 “Damn it! That’s a parasitic monster [Hell Corruption Mushroom].”

“Be careful not to expose your mouth and nose for breathing! That monster is a parasitic monster, and the hyphae it spreads will parasitize living organisms through breathing and skin.”

ˆ “.”

 Someone was still shouting warnings.

 But it’s too late.

Like a plague, the mycelium of the mushrooms has covered almost every corner of the institute when exposed to the air.

 The card master, who had no means of restraint, had no time to call for help before he found mushrooms growing on his skin and in his internal organs.

Those mushrooms are frantically extracting nutrients from the body.

Ji Xun is a qigong master, and his body surface is covered with Gang Qi throughout the process.

 The breath circulates internally and can block the parasitism of spores in a short period of time.

 But others were not so lucky.

Like reaping wheat, the people in the ruins fell in large numbers.

Ji Xun couldn't help but feel numb when he saw the thousands of mushroom people coming in. He murmured in his heart: "The Bai family's methods are really evil."

Mushroom spores on this layer, devil leeches on the second layer.

 They are all plague monsters.

　　Can’t say how strong it is. But it just gives people a feeling that there is no way to start.

 Other than avoiding it, there is no way to deal with it.

 But the situation now is that there is no escape.

The first floor of the institute is a dead place, and the second floor is also a dead place.

Even the camps on the ground may not be in good condition at this moment.

 This situation is irreversible.

Just these two kinds of monsters, of the hundreds of thousands of adventurers who come to this [DP-955 Research Institute], probably not even one in a hundred will survive.

Ji Xun had already guessed that this was a sacrifice from the Bai family.

 Apart from the somewhat surprising method, there was nothing surprising about the situation in front of him.

Judging from the current situation, neither mushroom spores nor leeches are fatal to sixth- and seventh-level card masters in a short period of time.

 But when Ji Xun saw this, he didn't think it was over.

He deduced in his mind: "After the sacrifice, those guys from the Bai family should use their big tricks to deal with these high-level card masters in the southern continent. If we don't escape now, we will be in big trouble. Moreover, the main structure of this research institute is so well preserved. It's intact. If the Bai family members come in in advance and obtain permission to use it, once the door is closed, they won't be able to escape even if they want to."

If Ji Xun wants to survive, the best choice is to rush out as fast as possible.

 But after thinking about it,

 He felt that if he really wanted to escape, he might not be able to survive.

 And once he escapes, he will inevitably expose some of his methods and arouse suspicion.

the most important is,

 The only opportunity to rescue the toad at present will also be missed.

At this moment, the toad is still locked in the iron cage.

 But because the cage is higher than the water, and the people from the Holy See used some special means, the leeches have not climbed up yet.

At the critical moment of life and death, no one obeyed the prohibition against getting close to the iron cage.

Upon seeing this, the nearby adventurers and soldiers also clung to the prison car in order to survive.

 A small iron cage with hundreds of people hanging there.

Ji Xun saw this, a flash of determination flashed in his eyes, and he decisively chose Aragorn as the "anchor of survival".

 Compared with escaping, following the toad may not be riskier.

With the thought together, Ji Xun also took advantage of the chaos and ran over.

Like other adventurers, he hung on the iron cage in horror.

If you want to rescue the toad, you must first hand it the [Gamil's Master Key].

This is also the only opportunity in the past few days to get so close to the iron cage.

But the cloaked men of the Holy See were obviously on guard.

 They stared carefully at every person on the iron cage.

Ji Xun didn’t dare to expose his flaws.

However, in the blink of an eye, news that made everyone desperate came again.

Before Ji Xun could find a chance to hand the card to Toad, at this moment, he suddenly heard the sound of "clicking" and "clicking" gears in the entire space.

 “No! The gate to the ruins is closing!”

 “Damn it, we’re going to be trapped and die here.”

 “Get out quickly.”

ˆ “.”

 Seeing this, these people in the Southern Continent also realized that besides them, there seemed to be other "outsiders" in this ruins.

 Furthermore, those outsiders also have partial authority over the ruins.

At this time, even the commander of the army, Herman, suddenly felt that something was wrong.

 The door was not closed before, so they could move in or out.

 But if the ruins are really sealed, no one can guarantee what will happen.

 No one thinks that those who control the closure will have good intentions toward them.

Now, it’s either a rush to get out, or you’re trapped to death.

Ji Xun also keenly noticed that Heman's eyes met those of the people from the Holy See.

 As a result, they chose to stay here.

 Because they also know that if the "jar" is really in the ruins, those outsiders are likely to come for that thing.

 If you go out, you may not know that the jar will still be here the next time you come in.

 It was the people from the Hydralisk Legion who chose to stay. In the blink of an eye, the second floor door of the research institute had slowly closed.

 The escape route has been blocked.

Ji Xun looked at it, and there was a hint of solemnity and contemplation in his eyes.

 This research institute is most likely to study alien gods in jars.

 The specifications are so high that ordinary people cannot imagine them.

Even if thousands of years have passed, it is not a big problem to trap this group of card masters who are only at the seventh level.

Ji Xun kept looking at those people from the Holy See.

Those guys didn't seem to show the eagerness they should have if they were trapped to death, which proved that they might have some other trump card.

 Thinking of this, Ji Xun was no longer in a hurry.

  The spores have no effect on him for a short period of time.

Although those devil leeches cannot be killed, they cannot be killed all.

 But Ji Xun carried a lot of various sundries with him.

　　If he really wanted to be surrounded by leeches, at least the "alchemy salt" would be enough for him alone.

Ji Xun deduced the direction of countless situations in his mind.

  No matter which one, the current situation is not a desperate situation for him.

However, Ji Xun knew that the crisis was more than that, and he thought in his mind: "What are the people of the Bai family doing to sacrifice these people?"

Just when this idea came up, an unexpected surprise happened.

As everyone watched, some ghost-like erratic spirits slowly appeared in the air.

Although these spirits are all kinds of strange.

 But the four most common types are snakes, insects, foxes and crows.

Ji Xun saw this and murmured: "The four great immortal families of the Bai family."

 Seeing this, he already understood the purpose of the sacrifice.

 As long as the incense burns out, the immortal family will never die.

The people of the Bai family used the souls of hundreds of thousands of people to reunite the spirits of the immortal family that had disappeared in this research institute.

 Seeing those floating spirits, Ji Xun's eyes gradually became playful.

The Immortal Family worshiped by the Bai family during the Tarun period had combat power comparable to that of gods and demons.

It would be interesting if these descendants of the Bai family awakened an ancient immortal family

The people of the Hydralisk Legion looked at these phantoms of the Immortal Family, and their expressions were not very good.

But at this time, the trouble is not those newly gathered ancient immortal families.

At this moment, the countless devil leeches in the water were also full of blood, and each one was emitting a strange green light.

In the stunned eyes of Ji Xun's survivors, the green lights gathered together, like a tower of sand, thirty or fifty leeches merged into one large leech, and then a hundred or ten large leeches merged into an even bigger leech.

It turns out that these leeches can not only divide, but also merge!

 Seeing the monsters getting bigger and bigger

The surviving high-level card masters used all their methods. Apart from hindering the progress of the monster's fusion, they didn't see any possibility of killing it.

In the blink of an eye, the green light in the huge pool converged into one, turning into a terrifying devil leech as big as an aircraft carrier!

Still continuing to merge and become bigger!

This is not something that alchemical salt can prevent.

Even Legion Commander Heman’s fire dragon breath can only burn it to a crisp, but cannot kill it at all.

 In nature, the size of a monster is usually directly proportional to its combat power.

The little devil leech just now was not even a first-level monster, but the leech king in front of him already had the terrifying aura to crush anyone present.

"Black Widow" Heather also had a very ugly expression, and said in a deep voice: "[Abyss Demonic Leech Emperor], I didn't expect that this kind of mythical creature really exists!"

 Herman on the side asked: "Can I kill him?"

Heather thought of what was recorded in the ancient book, and said with solemnity in her turbid eyes: "This is the legendary 'Undead Creature of the Abyss'. Once it evolves into the 'Leech King', not even the giant dragon can do anything about it. It can split infinitely, Infinite integration, in theory, as long as it still has a little body, it will be immortal."

Herman asked: "What should we do?"

Heather said: "We can only consume it slowly, but it has absorbed too much human blood. I guess we may not be able to consume it."

She has only read some fragmentary introductions to this legendary creature in ancient books and does not fully understand it.

At this point, the expressions of all the high-level card masters froze.

 However, during the moment when everyone was communicating, the [Leech Emperor] took the lead in launching an attack!

It looked like a jellyfish, with countless swaying fluorescent tentacles emerging from its body.

In the blink of an eye, the Leech Emperor seemed to have turned into a "giant caterpillar".

Ji Xun looked at those tentacles and suddenly felt a sense of fatal crisis with goosebumps all over his body.

 He didn’t know this monster, and he didn’t know what methods it had.

 But the oppressive feeling of death is like reality.

The size of the monster is too big, and all kinds of cards of the Hydralisk Legion are flying and exploding randomly.

 Amidst the crackling sound of "bang", the sound of "whoosh", "whoosh" and "whoosh", which made people's scalp numb, suddenly sounded.

"not good!"

"careful!"

ˆ “.”

 Several top card masters discovered something in advance and wanted to remind them.

 But the monster was so big that its tentacles were like tree roots and could be found in every corner of the entire second floor of the institute.

Although Ji Xun also keenly captured the crisis, he could not think of any way to deal with it!

 It's like a heavy rain in summer. Even if you hold an umbrella, you can't avoid it.

With great speed, Ji Xun watched the fluorescent tentacles shooting out from all directions.

 He wanted to dodge, but found that there was nowhere to hide.

Rao used a flying knife to cut off dozens of tentacles, but in an instant, several tentacles pierced his body.

These tentacles, like the previous leeches, also have the "breaking gang" attribute.

Ji Xun's body can be easily penetrated now, let alone others?

At this moment, together with the survivors around him, they were woven together like mutton skewers.

 The situation changed so quickly that people were completely unprepared.

 There is nothing wrong with being prepared.

 The card masters below level 6 will be wiped out almost instantly.

"No solution!"

Ji Xun quickly deduced various possibilities in his mind, but could not find any chance of surviving.

He looked at the tentacles that penetrated the wound with an extremely solemn expression.

 But he has the "Immortal Curse" and cannot die for the time being.

But what about behind?

However, just when he turned his attention to Toad and wanted to put his final hope of breaking the game on this "anchor", something unexpected happened.

 From a ring on his right hand, a small **** bat flew out.

Ji Xun looked at him with a strange expression: "Wangcai?"

 An idea suddenly came into his mind.

Since the Devil Leech Emperor’s only fatal method against him is to **** blood, the weapon spirit “Wangcai” of [God Thief’s Ring] will also **** blood.

 Which one of the two is more powerful?

 (End of this chapter)
