Mechanical Alchemist

Chapter 58 Zombies are weird

In the complex burrow, Su Lun was playing a monster game with the trial group of the "Black Tower Alchemy Academy".

Unbeknownst to anyone, on the ground block above them, a large tank truck disguised as a water truck pulled up in a hidden alley.

A few men in black held some kind of equipment and probed the sewer mouth for a while, as if they were looking for something.

After a while, the instrument lit up with red light, and the leader of the men in black spoke up.

"Have you determined their location?"

"Well, the target is about 200 meters underground, and it is exploring deep to the west."

"Put that aberration down."

"Yes, boss."

After several people said, they opened the valve of the tank truck, and then inserted the pipe into the sewer opening on the street. With the "gurgling" of the pipe, the black mucus like oil slowly poured into the sewer.

The students' shooting game continues.

Su Lun also followed leisurely, although he didn't go so deep last time, but the surrounding environment is not unfamiliar at all.

In addition to the subway tunnels left in ancient times, this burrow also has many potholes dug by monsters, extending in all directions, and I don't know where it will eventually lead.

The aberrant monsters in the sewer have their own territory, and Su Lun knows that they are about to reach the lair of those creeping monsters, a huge space like a subway hub.

"Haha. Captain Jack shot eight more monsters just now, all of them headshots. He is indeed the number one sharpshooter in our academy."

"Our team has already collected seven curse materials, and we have overfulfilled the trial mission."

"Hey, Garen, your goal is too low. Captain Jack doesn't want these common materials, we need higher quality silver materials. Hope to meet more elite monsters, preferably 'weird' 'At the same level, there may be gold materials, and our test results will definitely stay on the college's wall of honor."

"Miss Reina, let me tell you, our team will definitely get the first place in this trial. The results of this trial will be our best coming-of-age ceremony."

"."

The four five-man teams are advancing steadily, and there is no sense of crisis.

In their spare time, the young students would chat and spank each other.

Su Lun, the guide, followed the group and seemed to be doing nothing, so he carefully observed every student in the group. Although they all have gas masks and night vision goggles, they can roughly distinguish their personalities by their clothing, skin color, and body shape.

Although I can't see the appearance of those female students, I can guess that they will be surrounded by stars, and their appearance is definitely not bad.

Especially the one called "Rena", there are always boys hanging around her, showing great hospitality.

Su Lun didn't have much interest in seeing more of the delicate female students just by taking a glance at it occasionally. Compared with these, he is more interested in monster corpses.

Although the probability of "grey fog" appearing on the corpse of the deformed monster is very low, it is impossible to kill a large number of monsters.

Along the way, the students pushed the monsters horizontally, and Su Lun also collected two clouds of gray fog.

Then he stripped out some more detailed cave maps and some "anti-joint action skills" from the monster's memory.

Although these movements are not in line with the normal human body's habit of exerting force, it is undeniable that some of the skills of these monsters are quite suitable for his "Puppet Master" with high agility attributes.

Just like the "Five Animals Show" in his previous life, imitating the posture of animals can develop small muscle groups that are not commonly used in the human body. These monster climbing skills make Su Lun feel that he can flexibly climb on the wall like a gecko, maximizing the use of his body's agility attributes.

With money to take and scraps to harvest, Su Lun thinks this mission is not bad, at least for now.

Not long after, everyone came to an empty space, about the size of six or seven football fields, with high ceilings.

It can be seen from the layout of the building that it should be a hub of the old Lingdun underground rail transit.

Obviously, this is the monster's lair in Su Lun's impression.

When the trial team came, those monsters were briefly frightened and hid in various potholes and buildings.

The students were very excited. Just now, they were all in the narrow tunnel, and the monsters were all killed by people with good marksmanship. Now that they came to such an empty space, everyone had the opportunity to fight, and they rushed over excitedly.

"Wow, this is indeed the nest of monsters, there are a lot of deformed monsters!"

"Haha, now it's time for us to show off our skills!"

"Team three, follow me, we have to recover the results of the trial."

"."

The four five-man teams all chose a direction and started their clearing operation. Of course, except for Fat Charlie's team that deliberately fell last, everyone seemed very positive.

The two teaching assistants didn't follow up, so they chose a place with a high field of vision to stand, holding a notepad to record the performance of each student. That position is enough to overlook most of the space, and it can also be rescued in time after an emergency occurs.

Su Lun also chose a distance not too far or too close to observe everything here.

Although the task was easy, he never let his guard down. The students are safe and secure, but he doesn't think he really wants to be in danger. Those mentors will definitely save the gang members at the bottom of the society.

He was indeed familiar with this space, and Su Lun also knew that it was the home of those "zombie species" aberrations. But he didn't know how many monsters there were and what kind of mutants there were.

He looked at the buildings, and at the countless dark holes above his head, his eyes were a little dignified.

Crisis intuition told him that there seemed to be something staring at their group in the dark.

The two assistant coaches were chatting while observing the progress of the team.

"The new generation of 'Night III battle suit' is indeed very protective. However, over-reliance on equipment will also make students lose a large part of their necessary crisis response capabilities. The effect of the trial may not meet expectations."

"Yeah, we were still a generation back when we tested, and our defenses are not far behind. Tsk tsk, these little guys should suffer a little bit. Anyway, the academy didn't have an order to increase the difficulty of the trial?"

"Look for an opportunity to test their resilience later."

"Well, maybe there's a chance soon."

The two didn't avoid Su Lun while chatting. What he meant when he heard this seemed to be that the two teaching assistants might do something to increase the difficulty of the trial.

But thinking about it, there are bodyguards to follow at any time, and those students will not be alert at all.

And just when the two assistants were chatting, something suddenly happened!

The students are in groups of five, harvesting the lives of those aberrant monsters.

But at this moment, an aberration monster with a size of more than three meters suddenly appeared out of nowhere. It rampaged like a gorilla and directly knocked a team away.

Immediately, someone shouted: "Everyone be careful, it's a 'zombie kind of weird'!"

When Su Lun heard this, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he also focused his eyes on the past.

The definition of "weird" is a cursed creature that is stronger than the same rank, has a certain wisdom, and usually has the ability to command other distorted monsters.

In layman's terms, it's the boss monster.

According to different strengths, there are also ordinary, silver, gold, and lord-level distinctions.

There are three main categories of weirdness: zombie species (human form), ghost species (spiritual body), and alien species (monster).

In terms of subdivision, there are also some extremely rare special categories, such as "mythical species", "elf species", "phantom species", "abyss species".

And the distortion monsters that can reach the "weird" level will almost 100% produce cursed materials, and the quality is far superior to the silver and gold materials of the same level.

This is a monster that hunters are unwilling to face, but look forward to hunting.

"This zombie species is so weird and strong. However, the defensive power of those battle suits is too exaggerated."

Su Lun looked at the sudden situation in front of him, and after a little surprise, there was not much strangeness.

With such a large number of distorted monsters, it would be strange if there were not one or two bosses.

The two teaching assistants obviously foresaw this, but they didn't remind them in advance, which also made those students who came forward suffer a loss.

However, what surprised Su Lun more than the ferocity of the monsters was the "liquid battle suit" on the students.

At that moment, the "weird zombie species" hit several students directly, knocking them all out. Looking at the impact and the speed of the body flying backwards, Su Lun judged that the impact of the monster was extremely powerful, no less than a heavy truck reloaded.

If you want to be an ordinary person, this blow is afraid that you will be killed on the spot.

But just like that, several students who were knocked flying stood up intact, although they were embarrassed.

Su Lun's eyesight made him clearly see what happened just now, and he quickly analyzed some attributes of the battle suit: "The blue light mark on the suit should be the energy supply system, and the alchemy rune on it is at least Level 2. 'Sturdy Rune' and 'Toughness Rune' are really strange materials, like non-Newtonian fluids, they absorb most of the impact energy with waves."

At this time, Su Lun saw that the blue light of the rune on the student who was hit the hardest had dimmed. Then he replaced a few new energy crystals like a battery, and sighed in his heart: "Ah, 10,000 'cursed crystals' are used as energy, no wonder the defense is so strong. Another money-burning hacker Technology."

This kind of armor does not say whether it can be bought or not. For ordinary hunters, even if it is available, such a luxurious consumption cannot be used.
