Chapter 110 Pipeline World
Inside the dark, narrow tube.
Ron was trying to crawl forward. Under his body was dirt that had accumulated for countless years, mixed with some strange tissues.
Fortunately, he used his spiritual energy to cover his body with a protective film to avoid contamination.
Even with a protective film, these foul-smelling sludges are enough to stun any normal human being.
Unfortunately, Ron is not a normal person.
In order to deal with situations such as this, when he customized the body, he asked Moss to remove the body's sense of smell and taste.
So even such a scene can be easily handled.
Ron climbed in the dark, damp and narrow pipe for nearly three hours before he finally saw the end of the pipe.
A bright light can be seen at the end.
In this situation, most people would be unable to restrain their excitement and rush towards the end of the pipe.
However, Ron stopped. He raised his staff slightly and fired a compressed psychic ball forward.
"If you dare to ambush me, let me go!"
For safety's sake, he had always maintained his psychic senses. How could he be attacked by a sneak attack?
Snapped!
The psychic magic ball exploded into the light at the end, and there was a scream like a beast.
At the same time, the light fell from the end of the pipe.
The passage fell into darkness again.
When the screams stopped, Ron continued to crawl to the end, got his head out and looked at the tunnel below.
Only then did he see the appearance of the ambusher.
It was a mutated creature with several tentacles.
Its head is equipped with a light-emitting organ, just like the monkfish in the deep sea, which uses light to hunt prey.
The nearly a thousand kilometers of large and small pipelines inside the hive city are extremely complex and accumulate too many pollutants, forming a unique ecology long ago.
In such a ghost place, it is not surprising that any kind of monster appears.
According to Wangting District records.
Three hundred years ago, a maintenance worker got lost in a pipeline and unexpectedly found a tribe of subspecies.
The people of the subspecies tribe have lived in the pipeline for centuries and have no idea that the outside world exists.
They feed on various fungi growing in the sludge, and have even mastered certain fungus cultivation techniques.
Fortunately, the language of the people of the subspecies has not been completely lost and they can communicate simply.
Those kind-hearted people of the subrace rescued the maintenance workers.
In return, the maintenance workers also taught them a lot about tool making.
The two parties got along well, and the subspecies tribe even sent people to help the maintenance workers return to the ground.
But after this incident was reported, the officers of the local defense force immediately sent people to find the maintenance workers and coerced them into telling the location of the sub-race tribe.
After that, the officer led the defense force to find the subrace tribe and completely wiped it out.
He cut off the heads of those sub-race people and reported them to the Wangting District as his achievements.
This incident caused some waves at the time.
After debate, those subraces were eventually classified as aliens.
After all, their skulls don't really look like humans.
The officer was promoted as a result.
While searching for pipeline-related information, Ron saw the detailed files on this incident and was filled with sadness.
It can only be said that the empire is still a bit harsh on people whose skulls are not pure enough.
Ron worked hard to get out of the pipe and jumped to the tunnel about two meters below.
He sighed slightly.
Because in the mud at the bottom of the tunnel, the skeletons of dozens of scouts could be vaguely seen.
It is estimated that many of the scouts sent by the Ministry of Military Affairs died in the mouth of this damn mutated creature.
But most of the scouts passed here safely.
When the mutated creature is full, it is highly likely that it will not take the initiative to attack.
In such an environment, wasting physical energy is an extremely luxurious behavior.
When Ron crossed the corpse of the mutated creature and prepared to climb out of the tunnel.
A sudden change occurred, and the mutated creature climbed up silently, swooping over with its tentacles waving.
At such a close distance, it is difficult to have a chance to activate psychic powers.
But how could he be able to sneak attack him with such an old routine without respecting martial ethics?
Phew!
The single-molecule blade of the combat knife penetrates the head of the mutated creature and kills it instantly.
Ron pushed the mutated creature's body away and inserted the combat knife back into his waist.
Master Fa is fine with melee combat.
After climbing out of the tunnel, Ron started walking all night again.
On the way, he dealt with dozens of mutated creatures and saw more and more corpses of scouts.
Ron took out the map and looked at it. He had only walked thirty kilometers, less than one-third of the distance.
He recalled the corpses he saw on the road. Just by getting here, half of the scouts were lost!
For a long time after that, Ron never saw the scout's body again.
It seems that this journey is relatively safe.
When he relaxed a little and headed forward, his psychic senses suddenly felt a huge crisis!
There was an extremely evil force not far ahead, and there were waves of demonic whispers.
In an instant, Ron's heart beat faster.
He subconsciously raised his staff and pointed it in the dangerous direction, about to shoot a psychic magic ball.
"Fuck!"
When Ron saw what was ahead of him clearly, he tried his best to retaliate urgently, and the reaction force of the forcibly suppressed psychic energy almost made him vomit blood.
What a risk, I almost made a big mistake.
Fortunately, the magic ball was not launched, otherwise his clone vest would have been taken offline on the spot.
In the huge pipe not far ahead, there was a strange mist, and in the center of the mist floated a twisted body locked by iron chains.
There were many corpses of scouts scattered around.
Creepy.
Everyone in Ron is numb:
"Why is there such a ghost thing in the pipeline?"
That's the demon host.
The evil followers forcibly pulled the Chaos Demon from the subspace into reality through some kind of ritual, and then locked it in the human body, turning it into a terrifying existence.
The demon host is usually in a deep sleep state, with its body spreading a strange mist around and bursts of gibbering.
Its combat effectiveness is extremely terrifying.
Once the demon host awakens, it will relentlessly hunt down the creatures that awakened it.
The target will not switch until it is completely killed.
But for those who are familiar with the demon host, it is quite safe.
As long as you don't step into the fog or use any weapon to harm the demon host, it is almost impossible to wake it up.
For Ron, if there were not those unreliable teammates, he could pass this place quietly and steadily.
He clung to the wall of the tube, his steps were light and slow, carefully avoiding the strange fog, and moved forward step by step.
Hurry, we'll be in the safe area soon.
This wave is stable!
When Ron was halfway there, his pig teammates appeared.
A smooth-skinned four-legged mutant creature emerged from an unknown pipe.
It turned its back to this side, sniffing here and there, as if it was looking for something.
Ron stopped and tried not to make any noise that would attract the mutated creatures.
He looked at the mutant creature and prayed in his heart:
"Don't find me, don't come here!"
However, the mutated creature suddenly turned around and met Ron's eyes.
…
An awkward atmosphere spread.
After seeing Ron, the mutant creature immediately showed a happy expression.
delicious food!
Ouch ouch——
It kicked its calves wildly and rushed this way excitedly...
