Chapter 94. 94. Underground Encounter

[System message: You have successfully collected soul shards. 】

[Soul strength +0.2. 】

[The current soul strength is 420 points. 】

"The strength of the soul has far exceeded expectations..."

Li Nuo stood at the foot of the fortress wall, his body was hidden in the shadows, and there were several corpses of soldiers under his feet.

The deaths of these soldiers were not caused by Li Nuo.

They fought fiercely with the undead outside the city on the fence, fell from the fence after being accidentally hit by the enemy, and fell to the ground to their deaths. This became the object of Li Nuo's collection of soul fragments.

Li Nuo looked up at the city wall with solemn eyes.

After the Fury Spirit and the Bone Colossus, the monks and priests of the Necromantic Cult also appeared.

Li Nuo saw the spider web bullets of the Crypt Evil Spider streak across the sky above his head and land on the streets in the city, blasting a sticky web.

He also heard the sound of "Rotten Bugfly" cast by the Crypt Spider.

The stench of insects and flies and the whistling sound of flying scraped across the wall, taking the lives of soldiers in an instant.

The Crypt Evil Spider died quickly under the artillery fire, and its death did not stop the undead army from continuing to attack.

More crypt spiders used the spider silk as a traction line, jumped up from outside the city wall, and fought the imperial soldiers at close range.

The Legion had to throw in more "Imperial Fist" to deal with the situation on the wall.

To make matters worse, the Crypt Spider has accomplices.

Inside the Necromancer sect, it seems that the battle areas are divided according to factions.

Crypt spiders obey the orders of the spider mother and belong to the faction of hatred. They appeared in groups on the northern wall of the Legion Fortress, which is where Li Nuo was at this time.

The Frostskeletal Mages are the Foolish faction, mastered by the Frost Bones, and they attack from the west of the Legion's stronghold.

Appearing south of Legion Fortress are War Spirits.

They have the ability to summon undead units on the spot, and after a long preparation for casting, they can summon undead cannons to bombard imperial soldiers.

The spirit of war comes from the sect of the dead and the mad faction.

But if you want to ask who is the mastermind of the crazy faction, Li Nuo has no idea.

Anyway, this kind of undead Extraordinary who can be singled out or gang-fighted is far more difficult to deal with than the Crypt Evil Spider and Skeleton Mage.

In the east of the Legion Fortress, where the steam train platform and tracks are located, the stitched undead creatures headed by the Undead Eviscer and the Tomb Corpsemen became the main force.

Li Nuo wandered around there for a while, taking away all the soul debris he could collect, but he couldn't find the Necromancer Extraordinary manipulating the army of stitch monsters, and he couldn't tell which faction they belonged to.

Anyway, Li Nuo had to bite the bullet and execute the plan to escape from the fortress.

He looked at the right time, and when no one was paying attention to him, he went to the fence to look at the scene outside.

"Hiss..." The battle scene outside the city made Li Nuo gasp.

Within the field of vision, under the dark night, wherever the eyes can see, there are all kinds of undead soldiers, such as skeleton soldiers, large skeletons, walking corpses, bound spirits, etc.

At the end of the sky, near the limit of his field of vision, Li Nuo saw the flames of the army fighting, and also saw the figures of many biochemical giants.

These imperial troops that appeared on the edge of the battlefield should have come to support the Legion Fortress. They were stopped by the undead army on the way, not only failed to rescue the castle in time, but also involved themselves in the quagmire of chaos.

Taking another look at the scene near the city wall, Li Nuo frowned.

Now climbing over the wall and falling outside the city, he is definitely courting death.

Even if you have the hole cards in your hand, you don't have to worry about the undead attacking you, and you are very likely to be hit by stray bullets flying in the sky.

The soldiers on the top of the wall and inside the wall poured bullets like crazy, and directly filled a large area outside the wall with barrage.

Li Nuo didn't have the guts to risk his life not to be hit by stray bullets.

He has to go another way.

"No way, let's execute my backup plan."

Li Nuo avoided the soldiers on the city wall, came to the ground from the top of the wall, and shuttled through the dark and depressing streets.

He activated "Tracking the Living" to avoid the living, and used "Fear" and "Mutilation" to distract the undead. He kept walking, accelerated continuously, and ran towards the location of the underground boiler room.

The steam boiler needs to input clean water before it can discharge the high-temperature steam.

The key lies in the source of the water body.

Steam is a necessity of Legion Fortress and the main energy source of various workshops.

Li Nuo has already calculated that there is definitely an underground river with a wide surface and good water quality in the underground area of ​​the Legion Fortress.

Otherwise, there would be so many clean water bodies for the boiler room of the fortress to consume in such a place like the border of misery.

The Tatis Empire does not have the strength to build a water conservancy project for itself to send water from east to west.

Based on various judgments, Li Nuo took the underground river below the fort as his backup escape route.

Of course, considering that the poisonous mist of the undead came from underground, the underground river that the fortress used as a source of clean water should now be in a state of pollution.

Li Nuo didn't care about this.

He only knew that as long as he followed the water inlet pipe of the steam boiler room, he would be able to find the expected underground river.

…

The Legion Bastion is three meters underground.

An underground river with clear water quality flows from south to north to the distance, leaving a meandering figure under the fortress.

The dark green pollutants in the river are so glaring, they stand out like bruises on the knees of an innocent bride.

These dark green pollutants that pollute the river are sprayed from the round holes in the river bed.

Although the pollutants were quickly diluted by the flowing river water, the dirty dark green color still worried about the future of the river.

"Kacha Kacha..."

The sound of brisk footsteps came from far to near, passing by the round hole at the bottom of the river that spewed pollutants.

Li Nuo glanced at the greenery in the river, and sighed silently in his heart, "It's shameful to pollute the environment."

He calmed down, swept away distracting thoughts, and walked as lightly as possible, walking along the underground river from south to north.

He is currently located in the underground space in the south of the Legion Fortress, and above his head is the vast steam boiler room.

Going north from here, you will pass the steam train station, the main road of the fort, the area below the armor workshop, and finally arrive at the area directly below the Legion Castle.

That's right, the area directly below the Legion Castle.

It was just below the dangerous building that was crumbling and could collapse at any time.

What Li Nuo is most worried about now is that he will suffer from bad luck - when he just came to the bottom of the castle, the castle collapsed, the foundation collapsed, and he was crushed underground by tons of boulders...

This kind of worry is obviously not alone in him.

After walking for nearly 10 minutes, he stopped near the castle.

A group of human beings that Li Nuo didn't expect appeared near the underground river, blocking Li Nuo's only way.

"Hurry up, hurry up, move quickly. Remove all these ancient relics quickly, don't leave a single thing behind. We must take all the things we can take away before the castle collapses!"

The familiar harsh female voice came from the front, and drifted into Li Nuo's ears from a distance of thirty to forty meters.

Hearing the voice, Li Nuo raised his eyebrows, twisted his feet, and hid behind the nearby rock.

He blocked himself with the rocks in front of him, and used "Track the Living" to see the scene not far away.

There were about thirty MI2 soldiers there, all of them fully armed, wearing plate armor, equipped with suppressed short-barreled rifles, and wearing breathing masks for filtering poisonous gases.

Most of them are in motion.

They were running out of a hole in the wall and into another.

Li Nuo looked carefully.

MI2 soldiers came up from deeper underground.

And the hole they entered should have just been dug. There is fresh soil and gravel near the hole, and it is connected to an underground passage leading to the northwest.

These soldiers seem to be urgently transferring the ancient cultural relics buried underground to the underground passage.

As for the person who stood still and gave orders loudly, it was the MI2 virgin investigator Kaisha.

But why did she appear here?

At this time, shouldn't she stop the undead army in the city?

According to Kaisha's words, they are carrying ancient relics...

Could it be that MI2 is performing some secret mission here?

Li Nuo murmured in his heart, not daring to act rashly.

The opponent has more than 30 guns in hand, and the female investigator Kaisha has the rank of sergeant, and can transform into an "Imperial Fist" with potions.

Li Nuo didn't have the capital to confront the other party head-on, so it's better to be careful.

He listened carefully.

In the lower reaches of the river, that is, to the north of Kai'Sa's location, dense and messy footsteps appeared.

This voice brought back Li Nuo's memory.

In his mind, a scene of himself being chased by a skeleton dog emerged.

As expected, a large group of skeleton dogs ran along the river, heading straight for Kai'Sa and the others who were carrying ancient relics.

Kai'Sa spotted the Skeleton Dog immediately.

She pulled out the firearm behind her backhand, and used the "burning stick" with lead weights as a hammer.

The soldiers who were carrying the ancient relics were just about to put down the things in their hands and draw out their guns to meet the enemy, but Kaisha interrupted the movement in their hands with an unquestionable tone.

"You continue to move ancient relics! Did you hear that? Put your guns away and keep moving things!"

Kai'Sa raised her hand and ordered two people, and ordered:

"You, and you, you two transformed into "Imperial Ranger Giants", stop all these undead for me, don't let them interfere with our work! hurry up! Don't moan! "

The group of skeleton dogs is close at hand, and they are about to meet the personnel of MI2.

The two soldiers who received the transformation order put the ancient relics in their hands on the ground, took out a metal syringe and pierced their necks, and transformed into swift-moving giant rangers amid roars.

The two of them took a few steps forward, swept the curved long sword in their hands, and swept the skeleton dog in front of them into the water, then raised their arms, and shot the bullet in the palm of their hands with a "bang", bursting into the air and rushing towards their enemies.

The battle on the scene was on the verge of breaking out, and more and more skeleton dogs ran from the north of the underground river to fill the vacancy in the front line, fighting with the ranger giant.

Although the ranger giant is strong and powerful, it is a biochemical giant whose size is far beyond that of ordinary people. It cannot guarantee that it can stop every small skeleton dog.

There are always a dozen skeleton dogs that can penetrate the giant ranger's line of defense, get under the crotch of the other two, and attack the MI2 soldiers who are carrying supplies.

Kai'Sa was stingy with her chance to transform, and didn't attack with the extraordinary posture of "Imperial Fist".

She swept away the skeleton dog with the butt of her gun, and kicked the head of another skeleton dog away.

Seeing that the number of enemies was increasing, she hurriedly shouted to the soldiers who were busy carrying cultural relics:

"Quickly, stop all of them! All of you stop! Everyone builds a firepower net on the spot and kills this group of skeleton dogs! Quickly! Also, you guys, go to the underground passage and call for help!"

Li Nuo hid behind the rock, watching Kai'Sa's performance and frowning.

Lacking on-the-spot command experience and trusting his own judgment too much, Li Nuo doubted whether the other party had received formal military education.

If they had built a firepower network and called for support earlier, the situation at the scene would not have been so dire.

Just when Li Nuo shook his head and secretly complained about Kai'Sa's command ability, a more difficult situation arose.

As the saying goes, where there are skeleton dogs, there must be skeleton soldiers, and where there are skeleton soldiers, there must be a big skeleton commanding the skeleton soldiers.

Just when the soldiers of MI2 barely stopped the skeleton dog with firepower, a group of metal skeletons covered with metallic luster walked towards the firepower net with firm steps, not afraid of silencer bullets.

Behind the group of metal skeletons, a large skeleton appeared, and it was a large skeleton with a metal coating, not an ordinary large skeleton that shook off a mass of bone powder every time it took a step.

Kaisha's complexion changed drastically, and her voice became sharp and piercing, like a screaming crow:

"Damn it! Why did the undead units of the brutal faction appear here! I am most annoyed by these undead who add metal coating to their bodies! Go to the car and bring the bee jelly bomb! Go! ... How can our support not return?" No! Where is Kavado?!"

"Kasha, watch your words."

A thick male voice sounded, although the tone was not as sharp as Kai'Sa's, and the voice was not loud, but it calmed down the crazy Kai'Sa.

"Kasha, didn't you just let that criminal soldier No. 888 slip away? Look at your current state, you don't look like a senior investigator of MI2. I hope you will not be so impatient and calm down as soon as possible .”

The man who spoke came out of the hole in the underground passage, followed by soldiers carrying light machine guns and bomb launchers.

Kaisha was reprimanded by her chief, her chest was violently pumped, her hands clenched the rifle in her hands, her face turned red for a while, and turned pale for a while, showing both shame and anger.

"Excuse me, sir, I lost my temper."

Kaisha shivered for a while, and finally lowered her head under the oppressive gaze of the other party, trying to argue:

"Sir, the poisonous mist of undead is filling the castle. Murphia and Gretel are all fighting outside the castle, and the criminal soldier No. 888 is likely to be poisoned to death in the confinement room. I just want to hurry up and get the criminal soldier No. 888 I got it, that's why I'm so anxious."

The second lieutenant of MI2, known as Kavador, gave instructions to his subordinates with a few gestures, then looked at Kaisha and said in a deep voice:

"I know that you really want to pry out all the statements that are not good for Murphy from the mouth of criminal soldier No. 888. You two sisters think that this is the virtue. You are a family, but no one will let the other."

Kai'Sa's tone was quite full, and she muttered viciously:

"I'm not in the same family as that slut who learned necromantic runes... She has polluted her own blood, and I can't wait to hang her on the gallows."

Hearing this, Li Nuo was a little dumbfounded.

Do Kai'Sa and Murphia look alike?

Not like it.

Since they are not the same, why does Kavado say that they are a family. Is it adoption, or a reorganized family after remarriage?

No, no. Kai'Sa mentioned the word "blood", which shows that she has a blood relationship with Murphya. But why do they look alike...

Li Nuo was dumbfounded.
