Chapter 171 Tentacle monster in the dark
"It looks like a tomb." Navier walked in the passage to observe the surrounding environment and said to herself. She stared at the corpses placed in the rooms on both sides of the wall, all of which were corpses that died after being infected by the virus. However, Navier did not intend to enter these "morgues" to search, even if there was treasure hidden inside... Because the "tombs" underground hide extremely dangerous. Because you can't know whether you will awaken a terrible corpse or demon when you get rich treasures. These monsters not only have no pain, but also have virus attacks.
Therefore, there are usually no cannon fodder like sub-ethnic slaves, and underground residents will not take the initiative to search for "tombs".
Of course, the underground mercenaries who make a living by robbing tombs are exceptional.
When Gu Cheng saw the neatly arranged dentists of the dwarfs, he knew that this was the "corpse research room" among the three places. In fact, he complained in the game that these dwarfs knew that the leprosy dwarfs were infected by the virus, but they did not quickly dispose of the corpses and burn them with fire, but instead put them in their own home for research. It would be strange if the Normogen Institute did not destroy them!
As a banshee of the undead, Navier felt very strongly about this dead body. She felt a little nervous inexplicably and had already cast a questioning look at Gu Cheng more than once. Obviously, the banshee leader in Blackwater City also felt something was wrong, but even so, Navier had no intention of evacuating. Since she entered the Nomogen Institute, she had put her life on Gu Cheng. Leaving Gu Cheng, she would only end up like the sub-ethnic slaves and ogre warriors.
Suddenly, everyone felt that the air around them seemed to have dropped a few times, especially Sari, who was so cold that she wrapped her black robe tightly around her body, and was still shivering.
"Dongdongdongdong--"
A sound like something was knocked over from the dark space ahead came. Gu Cheng frowned and spoke to Navier beside him, "There is movement ahead."
Navier gave a wink at the two banshees, and the two banshees immediately turned into nothingness and drifted forward. Not long after, their sharp voices came: "Master Navier! They are dead bodies! Many!!"
"Aowuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwu!!!"
As soon as the words were finished, waves of terrifying screams came from both in front and behind. A strange roar sounded from all directions. Then, everyone saw that the originally rotten corpses walked out step by step in the rooms where the corpses were placed. After seeing the figure of the enemy, everyone was shocked. The dwarfs who appeared from the tomb had red eyes. They raised their hands like crazy, and rushed towards Gu Cheng and others in front of them like a whirlwind. When they encountered the raid of the dwarf corpse, Navier also angrily raised her weapon and moved forward to meet the enemy. As a senior swordsman, her power cannot be underestimated.
But the dead bodies seemed to be under control, ignoring Navier's sharp attack and rushed forward. It seemed that the broken arms and legs were not their bodies, and they only knew how to attack everyone and attack again!
For a moment, the two sides fell into a melee.
And unlike Navir, a pure banshee does not have any sword skills. Apart from the whistle and mind control, there is no other attack method. As for the "Nothingness" reduction of 50% damage, it has very little effect on corpses with toxins and virus damage. The banshee, who originally fought with the sharp-clawed rat, was only slightly injured, and now they are all in a row.
"I knew... I got the worst card again this time." Looking at the dwarf corpse that was waving his hands toward him, Gu Cheng even sighed leisurely. Of course, he knew how difficult the corpse in front of him was, and his bloodshot and bright red eyes proved the true identity of these dwarf corpses. The product of the destruction of the Nomogen Institute after sinking into the land of destruction was cursed by the necromancer.
"Oh, Resident Evil..."
Most players who have been to the Nomogen dungeon, like Gu Cheng, complained about the setting of the corpse research room on the forum, like playing Resident Evil, where corpses are like zombies, disgusting and terrifying. Female players directly listed the Nomogen Research Institute as the first of the taboo dungeons, so that they could not see a female player in the land of sinking for many years, which broke the hearts of all the otakus.
"Sari."
"Ahhh? Roy...Mr. Royce?" Sali was so cold that she leaned towards Gu Cheng, almost pressing against Gu Cheng. At this time, when she heard Gu Cheng call her, she was shocked and raised her head nervously to look at him.
"Then it depends on you! These are undead creatures..."
"Oh..." Sali nodded. When she saw these dead bodies, she knew that she could finally come in handy. However, facing such a large number of dead bodies, she was still a little nervous.
Gu Cheng cut off the heads of the two dwarf corpses who were trying to attack with a sword, pulled Sali back, and shouted to Navier, who was fighting with the corpses behind: "Navier, take the banshee into the morgue behind. There is a pit behind the instrument in the corner. Immediately hide in and walk in the passage. Don't look back! Leave the corpses outside to us!"
Sari was preparing to use a range of holy light spells. Navir and the Banshee are completely a combination of negative energy. I am afraid that the Banshee's fate will not be much stronger than the dead corpse after the spell is released. Gu Cheng didn't want to destroy them directly with one move.
"Yes! Sir!"
When Navier heard that Gu Cheng had a way to solve these endless dead bodies, he immediately took the Banshee to retreat into the morgue behind according to Gu Cheng's order. There were about six or seven dead bodies inside, but it was not difficult for Navier to solve it at all. After the solution, a small hole was indeed found behind the instrument in the corner of the wall. Although it was not big, there was no problem with the Banshee's body to pass through. Navier and his men did not dare to hesitate, and hurriedly walked through the passage.
At this time, Gu Cheng and Sali were surrounded by dead bodies in the corridor outside. Gu Cheng relied on a suicide attack from the Demon Knight and Silver Guardian to control the surrounding corpses within about two meters. However, if the light in the corridor is stronger now, you can see that the two ends of the corridor are densely packed with short dwarf corpses, no less than two or three hundred!
"Sari, use the wind therapy!"
"yes!"
Sari stretched out her hands and silently recited the spell of the wind healing technique in her heart. Unlike the previous healing technique of release of wind, she saw two strange symbols appear on the back of her hand. Then, the golden light of her hands suddenly burst out, showing a circle spreading around, roaring and hitting the body of the dwarf corpse in all directions. In just a blink of an eye, she saw countless golden lights spraying out from it, burning the body of the dwarf corpse like flames. Then the burning flames rose up flat on the ground and instantly swallowed all the dwarf corpses completely. After hitting the target, the jumping flames stopped at the other dwarf corpses attacked by the wind healing technique. In the blink of an eye, she saw that Gu Cheng had completely turned into a sea of flames. All the corpses were burned by the flames so that there was no residue left.
However, this did not allow the corpse attackers who had not yet squeezed out of the morgue room to retreat at all. The gnome corpses who had been transformed into undead creatures rushed out of the morgue room and rushed forward without fear. Seeing this scene, Gu Cheng frowned slightly and then took a few steps back.
"Sari, use healing techniques to assist me and identify the target attack!"
"yes!"
There are about thirty or forty zombies left, with a level between 45-50, which is not too difficult for Gu Cheng, who is already level 47, to deal with, let alone the priest Sali, who is by his side, it doesn't matter even if there is no summoning knight to help.
"This is called using the ultimate move!" Recalling that Sali had solved hundreds of dead corpses with one magic, Gu Cheng couldn't help but complain.
"Hmm?" Sari looked at Gu Cheng in confusion, not understanding what he was talking about.
In an instant, thirty or forty pygmy corpses turned into corpses on the ground. Oh, no, they were already corpses, and they should be said to be broken limbs on the ground. Before focusing on the battle, Sari had not noticed the situation around her. Now she stopped and was suddenly disgusted by the disgusting scenes around her. She hurriedly hid in Gu Cheng's arms and did not dare to look at the ground again.
Gu Cheng kicked open the wooden board blocking the door and said to Sali: "There is a passage behind the corner instrument, you can go in first."
"Oh." Sari quickly ran in as if she was running away. If she stayed there, she might really vomit.
After Gu Cheng picked up all the equipment and props dropped by the dead body, he chased into the passage. At this time, Sali had already met with Navier and others at the exit. At this time, she was standing at the fork in the road waiting for Gu Cheng. Without Gu Cheng's instructions, they were not sure which path was the correct passage.
At this moment, a strange shadow suddenly swept into the corner of Navier's eyes. She quickly turned her head and looked in the direction of the black shadow, and then was suddenly shocked. At the same time, three or four deep purple tentacles, covered with thin tentacles like lumps on the back of a toad, rushed towards a banshee. Before she could react, the banshee was wrapped in thin tentacles and dragged into the depths of the hole.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
The banshee let out a harsh scream. No matter whether it was a spiritual attack or a spiritual roar, she could not correctly lock the target. And she also felt that the tentacles wrapped around her body were constantly absorbing the negative energy in her body. In the blink of an eye, her slender body instantly shriveled, and her originally slightly transparent skin instantly turned into an old lady in her seventies or eighties.
"Ah!!!" Sari was so scared that she was so scared that she was screaming at the sudden scene in front of her. If she was a Holy Feather Priest player in "Spiritual Pet Online", she would immediately release healing techniques to those tentacles, and then the tentacles would immediately be like the banshee at this time. At this time, a tentacle suddenly shot out from another shadow and attacked Sari's face. At this time, Sari was completely frightened. Not only did she not expect to release the spell, she even forgot to escape, standing there blankly, her eyes full of fear.
"careful!"
Suddenly, Gu Cheng rushed out of the passage, cut off the tentacles with a sword, and pulled Sali behind him.
"grown ups!"
"Ro...Mr. Reus!!!"
While Gu Cheng protected Sali, several tentacles jumped out of the shadow and dragged the two banshees into the shadow. As half-energy bodies, they were completely the "food" of these tentacles that absorb energy. They were sucked dry in the blink of an eye and turned into a shriveled corpse.
"Sari, use healing techniques on them!Sari!"
Several tentacles attacked Sari. She was frightened by the tentacles. It was not until Gu Cheng called her several times in a row that healed her. He quickly chanted the spell of healing and released it at the squirming tentacles in the dark passage. Accompanied by a strange and miserable scream, the dark tentacles curled up under the burst of the holy light of the healing technique, retreated, and quickly disappeared into the depths of the cave.
"Mr. Reus? What is that?"
Seeing that the healing technique was even stronger on tentacles than those skeleton monsters, Sari breathed a sigh of relief, but the "impression" left by those tentacles on her was too deep, so she asked with some concern.
"I don't know." Gu Cheng was also speechless. The enemies he encountered during this trip to the ruins were the most disgusting and difficult enemies of the Nomogen Institute. He could never tell Sali that he and his group were lucky enough to meet the most disgusting experiments of the Nomogen Institute. The tentacle monster left behind after the research of the ancient god Cthuns tentacle cells of the Dwarf Institute? So in the face of Sali's inquiry, Gu Cheng could only shake his head and said that he didn't know either.
But thankfully, the tentacle monster is just a rare boss that is refreshed randomly at the Nomogen Institute. If you choose the channel on the left, you can avoid the tentacle monster and directly enter the room of the final boss of the institute. Although Gu Cheng also wanted to avoid the boss directly, the system obviously did not want to make him so relaxed.
"System prompt: Trigger a random hidden task - 'The Hunter in the Dark.'"
While guarding against the tentacle attacks in the shadows, Gu Cheng looked at the mission interface in front of him.
[There seems foreign objects staring at you in the dark passage. Since you have embarked on this path of no return, don't expect to live safely. It is hidden in a place that the sun can never reach. If you want to survive, then raise the sword in your hand to attack it - Mission goal: Eliminate the Tentacle Nest, and you will get the reward you "naturally" have after passing the Nomogan Institute. If your luck is not bad, it is at least a rare-level equipment or prop, otherwise... you know...]
"……………” Seeing the complaints behind, Gu Cheng's face suddenly hangs a few black lines.
