city ​​of the end

Chapter 342 Mutation and Fetal Movement (II)

The old man thought he knew the situation of this dungeon very well.This is the research institute's reserve base, and it is also the most important core part of the plan.If it wasn't for the activation order received here a few days ago, the old man even thought that the city would have been destroyed in that disaster.Although the journey here went smoothly, even so, the old man was prepared for the possibility that more than half of the city would be destroyed, and it might even maintain only its basic functions.

The old man is very familiar with this dungeon. He has participated in the design and construction of this dungeon and knows what it looks like.

But... Looking at the scene in front of him, even the old man couldn't help but want to swear.

What the hell is this meow?
What he saw in front of the old man was not the ruins he had imagined, nor the city buildings he was familiar with, but...a green and boundless grassland.

Grasslands, woods, clear blue sky, and even the sun.

Wait, where does the sun come from underground?
The old man raised his head and looked up again... That's right, the blue sky and the dazzling sunlight.Although he knew that this might be some kind of strange trap or hallucination, the old man still let out a long sigh——since the cataclysm, he never saw the sun again.

"Be careful, pay attention to vigilance, let's go in."

Although the place in front of them looked weird, they had no way out, so the old man had nothing to do except give the order to move on.

Although the order was given, after entering this weird space, everyone still felt at a loss—looking around, they could only see the neatly pruned grassland like a golf course, and the trees, the whole On the prairie, there is only one path winding and extending to the other side.

No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like what should be in an underground city.

"…………"

Everyone walked step by step on the small road, looking around curiously. They knew very well that the situation in front of them was obviously abnormal, but they had no way of solving the situation.Now they can only rely on their leader, and facing this weird scene, the old man is silent.In fact, at this moment, he may also be at a loss. After all, the familiar scenery suddenly turned 180 degrees, and there was also a completely impossible scenery.Even if it is him in this situation, there is no way to figure out what is going on in a short time.

"Beep, beep, beep!!"

At this moment, suddenly, a trumpet sounded out of nowhere, and the next moment everyone saw the four guards walking beside them suddenly wrapped in a pitch-black semicircular barrier that looked like a film.Immediately afterwards, there were screams and intense gunfire from inside.Seeing this scene, the others were also taken aback.

"Sir, what is this?"

"Be careful!! Everyone, pay attention to your surroundings!!!"

"Blast off that lid!!"

Amidst the loud screams, I saw that other people immediately moved away from the weird semicircular barrier, and the other two guards immediately stepped forward, took out two small grenades from their waists and threw them over.I saw that the two grenades immediately burst into bright and dazzling lightning and roar after hitting the barrier, but this attack seemed to have no effect on the barrier at all.Even if they shot at it with guns, this weird barrier was still as strong as iron, and it didn't even mean to be damaged at all.

"Shh."

Just when everyone was at a loss, they saw the extremely weird barrier disappear in an instant, and then, they saw the four guards with bewildered faces coming out of it.Their bodies looked tattered, as if they had fought some ferocious beast, and when they saw the four of them coming out, the others hurriedly surrounded them.

"How is it? It's okay!"

"It's okay, what happened to you?"

"us………"

The four guards also looked very confused, apparently they hadn't recovered from the previous battle.It wasn't until the old man came in front of them and stared at the four of them that they seemed to have finally come to their senses.

"What on earth happened?"

"That's right, sir."

Facing the old man's question, the four guards looked at each other, and then one of the tall and thin guards stood up and answered respectfully to the old man.

"Just now, the four of us were suddenly locked up in a strange place, and then several ferocious monsters appeared and attacked us. It's just... those monsters don't look like real things , after we defeated those monsters, they disappeared, leaving only this..."

While talking, the tall and thin guard stretched out his hand, and put a bottle of what looked like some kind of drink or potion in front of the old man.

"what is this?"

"Looks like... some kind of recovery potion?"

"?"

The old man took a look at the medicine bottle in the hands of the tall and thin guard, and sure enough, he saw the crooked words "recovery potion" on the outside of the bottle. Judging from the handwriting, it was not industrialized mass-produced printing, but looked like a child handwritten lettering.

what is this?
The old man only felt that since he entered this strange world, the things he encountered became more and more unreliable.The data obtained through theory and experience in the past seems to be completely meaningless here.But even so, he didn't show any wavering expression, just put away the bottle of potion, and continued to signal everyone to move forward.

However, the next journey was not so smooth.

As everyone moved forward, they encountered more and more monsters.And almost everyone encountered the same pattern, first a series of trumpet sounds, and then saw a pitch-black barrier appear out of thin air, covering four unlucky people in it, and then others could only watch helplessly. Fighting and screaming.If all goes well, then when the barrier disappears, they will be able to see their companions again. If they are lucky, they may even get some weird props, such as leather clothes, wooden swords, and even various recovery potions.

But if they were unlucky, after the barrier disappeared, all they could see was the cold, horrible corpse.

After several battles, the others finally learned to be smart, and they began to automatically look for combinations to avoid encountering unexpected events in the next battle—just like when the battle started before, a sudden The weird barrier that emerged directly enveloped the four helpless researchers. Not only that, but at the worst time they heard the bandit's roar and sneer.And when the barrier disappeared, what everyone saw were only four bloody corpses smashed by the bandit's mace.

Not only that………

"Please, please, who, who still has the antidote..."

A researcher stumbled on the road, he stretched out his hand in pain, and wanted to ask someone for a bottle of antidote.At this moment, the researcher's face was already ashen, and on top of his head, there appeared a purple skull symbol, which seemed to be mocking him, and kept opening and closing.

Not only that, along with the researcher's movements, a number "-1, -1, -1" kept popping up above his head.But the researcher didn't seem to care about it. He just desperately wanted to find something that would allow him to live. However, in the face of his prayer, everyone turned their heads away full of guilt and stopped looking at him.Finally, after the researcher stumbled and took two or three steps, he fell to the ground with a bang, and couldn't breathe anymore.His body gradually turned purple, then began to rot and fester.He used to be one of the prides of the research institute, but now, no one looked at him more, they just bit the bullet and moved on like refugees fleeing desperately.

"Beep beep beep——!"

And at this moment, the horn sounded again.

But to everyone's ears, it sounded like the bells of hell.

"Wow..."

Looking at the picture on the screen in front of her, Krona couldn't help being amazed.

"I really didn't expect that there would be such a change just by adjusting the value a little bit."

"Fufu, this shows that the master's theory is correct... I don't think other people will take risks. These people should be wiped out soon."

And Franke next to her still had an elegant smile.

"But, are they going to the entrance of the second floor soon?"

"Leave it to me, it's where they will die."
