380 Gum Monster

After turning a corner, Wood suddenly stopped at the first fork and pointed to the two underground channels that were divided into the left and right: "On one way, leading to an abandoned market and an abandoned square, where are you going?"

Wutong looked around in a daze. He was not familiar with this place at all. He ran in just because he might find clues about ghouls. He knew that he could only find ghouls there.

After a moment of stunnedness, Wutong suddenly remembered something, reached out to search in her backpack for a while, pulled out a map box from it, then pulled out a stack of large maps from the cylindrical map box, searched it inside, and took out one to identify it carefully.

"Finally found!"

After looking for a while, Wutong found the location of the slum reservoir where they entered from the map, and then asked Ling Yue Shuangxue and Xiaoxiao to help pull the map, took out another scroll box, and pulled out one from a stack of large maps inside, comparing it with the previous one.

"Where is the map?" Ling Yue Shuangxue, who helped to stretch the map, looked curiously.

"It's a detailed map of Fairhaven City!"

Wutong raised the one in his hand proudly, and opened it with a tablecloth-sized map and said, "In addition, this one is an old map of Fairhaven City in history!"

"The map of this underground abandoned city?"

Ling Yue Shuangxue and the others were stunned: "How come you have this thing?" The first panoramic map of Fairhaven was easy to understand, but there were some on the streets, but they were not so detailed, just a rough picture.

"It can't be regarded as a map of this underground abandoned city." Wutong shook her head and spread the map that she needed to stretch her arms to hold into a stack of two feet square, which happened to be where they are now.

"These maps are a book I found in the large library of Vinnern College. "Felhaven Urban Construction Map" in the past few years. I think there is a detailed map that is very convenient for me to find locations and buildings when doing tasks, so I copied them with [copying] and recorded the maps of each area on the same picture. The 'old map' was copied by me to make a reference to the 'new map'. After all, some areas use new names on the map, but the names used by the people are still old..."

Wutong explained: "The building areas on the old map were roughly the ones before the establishment of the new city, so although they are not completely accurate, they should not be much different from what we see now."

"But what did you do with the map?"

Ling Yue Shuangxue was puzzled. Isn’t there a living map next to it? Wood, who was a former profession, had a thief. His understanding of this underground world should be greater than that of a map that was unknown many years ago, right? Besides, if you want to find someone who is familiar with the environment, you don’t need to copy all the maps so much, just find a coachman who lives in Fairhaven. They are much more accurate than any map.

"Are you prepared for any trouble?" Wutong refused to say anything, but kept comparing to the two maps and answering casually: "My thought... don't you think that it's strange that the current Baidu Tieba Qihang is in the text and always does not clean the source of the epidemic?"

"Free? Of course it's weird? Otherwise, why should we go to this place where there are dark and cockroaches and rats everywhere?" Ling Yue Shuangxue murmured in her heart. The beautiful female priest Xing has deep resentment towards this "terrible" place!

"You guys think about it!"

Wutong explained: "Even if the ghouls hide in the underground abandoned city, but they cannot climb to the ground, how did they spread the plague? Once they reach the ground, they will be discovered immediately with the current martial law in Fairhaven City? They have no time to spread the plague, and they will be killed by the law enforcement knights."

I have to say that in the world in the fantasy context, sometimes some of the detection spells of mages are more sharp than biological radars and thermal infrared detection.

Ling Yue Shuangxue's beautiful apricot kernel lit up, and Wutong obviously said that. As for the little loli with a monkey beside her... Well, she never cared about these things, just follow Brother Wutong and Sister Xiaoxue, so she is the most relaxed and comfortable here.

"Then what do you mean?" Ling Yue Shuangxue couldn't completely pay attention to Wutong's meaning.

"Source of water!"

Wutong pointed to the heating and cooling water channels running through the city on the map in her hand, from Yongquan's underground pipeline and underground water channel: "You said, will the ghouls spread the plague by these water conservancy facilities?"

Ling Yue Shuangxue said suspiciously: "According to my understanding of undead creatures, except for virtual creatures and certain aquatic undead creatures, ordinary undead creatures are instinctively afraid of water, right? Who would make their bodies rot at a faster rate..."

"I know this, too."

Wutong shrugged helplessly: "But at present, only this explanation is more reasonable, because according to the case files I have read at the Knights of Law Enforcement before, the ghouls on the surface have been cleaned up and purified, and the areas where the plagues broke out in the second, third and fourth degrees are almost all near Yongquan, where the hot and cold water channels and underground canals are densely connected. Other areas, even if they are infinitely close to the cemetery where the plague broke out, have never been infected again after the surface has been cleaned up and purified."

"Did you find out? Those patients with second and third degree infections are said to have far less severe symptoms than when the first plague spreads. Moreover, the further away from the dense intersection of underground water conservancy pipelines, the milder the symptoms and the fewer the infections..."

"Dilution of water?"

After Ling Yueshuangxue was stunned, she suddenly reacted and covered her vomiting disgust and said, "You can't say that those ghouls ran to the underground canal to take a bath and let us drink their bath water to spread the plague, right?"

Wutong shrugged. There is no big difference between players and the indigenous people. They also need food, clothing, housing and transportation. The food they eat and the water they drink may also carry the source of plague. This is why players cannot avoid being infected with [Ghost Fever Epidemic].

Pointing the map with his finger, Wutong said, "And nearby, there is a place where a large number of underground water conservancy pipelines gather..."

"Underground reservoir!!!" Wood, who was listening on the side, shouted: "I know! It's an underground reservoir!"

Wutong turned his head and looked at the thin former thief. Without waiting for Wutong to ask, he took the initiative to point to the old map and said, "Master Master, look! This is the abandoned underground canal where we are standing now!"

They drilled into this abandoned and dried underground canal from the cracks in the slum reservoir. So theoretically, as long as you walk along this abandoned underground canal, you should find the nearest underground water conservancy pipeline intersection - the underground reservoir.

Under the underground of Fairhaven City, there are a large number of underground spaces built imitating underground lakes and underground rivers for water storage. These underground spaces are called underground reservoirs.

"...The abandoned market is far away from the underground reservoir, and the underground square is exactly the location of the underground reservoir!" Wood's index finger moved slightly hesitantly on the old map, found their location, and then moved up the route and clicked on the square building area of ​​an old city.

With detailed maps and quite reliable inferences, and with Wood, a former thief guide who is familiar with the underground world, there is much hope of finding the hiding place of the ghoul. Under the leadership of Wood, the group quickly followed this abandoned underground channel and headed towards the target.

"...It's so weird! Boss! Is your real profession the police's supervisor? Why are you so good at reasoning? Moreover, just now at the Knights of the Law Enforcement Order headquarters, I saw you just casually flip through the files, and you have already recorded all the contents in it? I didn't see you recite it? What kind of weird memory is this?"

While walking, Ling Yue Shuangxue was talking and distracting herself from paying too much attention to the terrible little bugs such as rats and cockroaches running around on the ground. Like July Liuhuo, Pea and others, she signed an employment contract with "Secret Shadow Company" and became a paid employee of "Secret Shadow Guild" in the game "Endless", but this contract is only limited to the game. They also have their own work and life in reality.

So although Wutong is their direct boss and boss, they do not have much fear or awe of Wutong, and they do not feel embarrassed when they are in contact. They speak casually and naturally, but they are more like friends.

Wutong was speechless. If you were to change you, in a place where you could not feel that time had passed, but it did extend the time extra. After reading books that you didn’t even know how long you had been, and memorizing books that were equivalent to a library. You can also just scan the general idea of ​​what you read, not to mention that Wutong itself has the ability to remember quickly.

"...It's here nearby, but, Master Mage, we have to be careful next, it's very dangerous here!"

Wood held his own wooden stick in his hand, and looked around carefully and moved forward. His speed of moving forward was reduced a lot, as if he was guarding against something and rushed out of the darkness outside the range of the surrounding light balls.

“Is there anything here?”

"Some monsters living in the dark..." Wood looked around nervously.

Wutong seemed very nervous and couldn't help but hold his own flame rune staff tightly. Ling Yue Shuangxue and Xiaoxiao also held their steel scepter and giant wooden sticks tightly. When Wood saw Xiaoxiao's little loli, he actually pulled out a "trunk" that was even larger than hers from his backpack and held it in his hand, his eyes were a little straight.

Wutong felt something moving in the darkness in a keen sense, but she did not feel the disgust and rejection of the ghouls. It seems that it should be underground creatures living in the dark underground abandoned city where the sun is gone, such as rats, bugs, snakes and other animals, at most, they are mutated and mysterious beast versions.

The same is true for the message from the priest Ling Yue Shuangxue. As a priest, she and Xiaoxiao's sense of induction to the undead creatures was stronger than that of him, and they didn't even react much. Wutong felt a little relieved.

Even Wood, a [poor] who is not a professional, dares to move in the underground abandoned city. Although it is only a small and safer area, in theory, there will not be many monsters that exceed their ability to bear. You must know that they are not the previous Wu Xia Ah Méng, and before and after the job, it is not the same concept at all.

"Squeak!"

As the rustling sounds in the darkness became more and more obvious, an extremely fat and huge mouse appeared in front of them. It suddenly pounced out of the darkness and rushed towards the Wutong surrounded by four light balls.

Wu De screamed in horror, turned his head and ran to the side, shouting while running: "Master, run quickly!"

"" Looking at Wood who disappeared from his sight like flying, Wutong was speechless. She was really a thief. She ran so fast that she was no less profession than a gambler.

However, when Wutong and the others saw the huge mouse rushing out, they were relieved. Wutong didn't even take action, and the little loli was excited to carry her large lollipop. With a "ah~!", he swung the giant wooden stick and gave a home run to the big mouse that was rushing towards him!

With a "bang!", the flesh and blood exploding turned into a mist-like body, radially covered with moss and moss on the walls of the underground canal, dyeing a strange abstract painting.

Xiaoxiao's attack is still so bloody and cruel! Although it is not suitable to describe a cute little loli who looks as soft as a little angel, Xiaoxiao, who cannot see his own attack effect, is indeed more brutal when fighting than those barbarians who are covered in muscles...

The creature she smashed with with that large lollipop would be free of luck and would be able to keep a whole body. If she was not lucky, she would trigger the [Strength Explosion] effect of the [Two-Headed Giant Skull-Broken Wood Stick], and the corpse would be gone, and even the bones could be broken.

This is just a fierce rat. Although it is larger than an ordinary mouse, it is just a mouse after all. The way of attack cannot escape the physiological category of mice. It is nothing more than pounce on it and scratching or gnawing with their sharp front teeth. When it comes to Xiaoxiao, the little loli holding a big wooden stick, it can only be said to be their misfortune.

After killing the fierce rat that had emerged from there for no reason, the three of them continued to move forward. Wood, the coward, had already disappeared in such a short time, which made Wutong and the others a little stunned.

Fortunately, there was only a straight road in the underground channel, and there was no fork in the fork. The map shows that the abandoned square is not far ahead, so Wutong and the others did not rush to chase Wood, and they were still cautiously moving forward at an even speed to prevent small monsters like tyrants in the darkness from rushing out.

After moving forward for about ten minutes, Wutong and the others did not encounter monsters again. They found that they had entered a relatively open place, with the openings of several underground canals connecting here. Obviously, this is an intersection. Around the intersection, there are also steps leading up to the upper part, the environment of the underground canal is very similar to that of the subway station, except that there are no railway tracks or trains on the ground.

I identified the traces on the ground and some footprints on the wet soil, proving that Wood ran up the stairs in a hurry, and the abandoned underground square should be above it.

Just as they were about to go up, Wutong and the others suddenly heard a faint shouting and screaming from another underground canal. They couldn't help but be stunned. Are there other people here?

After looking at each other, Wutong and Ling Yue Shuangxue hurriedly ran to the place where Xiaoxiao came. Not far away, a terrible thing was squirming disgustingly, while a slender figure was wrapped in it, struggling desperately!

Glutinous monster, something a little similar to a slug. It has no obvious organs and organs, and it is a large ball of viscous gray-white substance that moves through wriggling. This weird creature cannot be said to be a fungus or something. In short, they like to hang themselves on the top of the cave or the ceiling of the building. When a creature passes under them, it releases the sucked ceiling, falls on the heads of the unlucky ghost, wraps them up, wraps them in their bodies and eats them.

Obviously, the unlucky guy who is currently struggling desperately in this disgusting gray-white gum monster is the prey of this gum monster that likes to live in the dark and wet ground.

"Evil~! It's so disgusting!" Ling Yue Shuangxue grinned and complained, releasing a holy light to strike [inflicting minor injuries]!

With a "bang!", the dim gold holy light energy hit the surface of the glial monster, and a large area of ​​viscous body fluid exploded. It seemed as if it could feel pain. It wriggled violently and crawled towards Wutong and the others.

Wutong also twitched the corner of her mouth. This thing looked less pleasing than a zombie. She had a large pile of sticky old phlegm...

The Holy Light Strike seemed to have no effect on this soft creature. The two priests were immediately at a loss. The girl's heaven made them see this big "old phlegm" crawling towards them, and involuntarily retreating instinctively.

Wutong had already raised her hand to release the spell, but when she saw the unlucky ghost wrapped in the old sputum was still struggling, she couldn't help but pause, replaced it with a flame, and a flame ejected from her staff, sweeping through the space in the underground channel, and roared and wrapped the gum monster!
