Chapter 95 94. Encounter underground

[System message: You successfully collected soul fragments.]

[Soul strength +0.2.]

[The current soul strength is 420 points.]

"The strength of the soul far exceeds expectations..."

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

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

They fought fiercely with the undead outside the city on the wall. They were accidentally hit by the enemy and fell from the wall to the ground and died. Only then did they become the targets of Li Nuo to collect the soul fragments.

Li Nuo raised his head and looked at the city wall, his eyes solemn.

Following the Raging Spirit and the Skeleton Colossus, the monks and priests of the Necronomicon also appeared.

Li Nuo saw the web bullets of the Crypt Spider flying across the sky above his head and falling onto the streets of the city, exploding into a sticky web.

He also heard the sound of the Crypt Spider casting "Rotten Bug Flies".

The stench of insects and flies and the whistling sound of flying insects blew over the wall, taking away the lives of the soldiers in an instant.

The evil crypt spider soon died under gunfire, and its death did not stop the undead army from continuing to attack.

More Crypt Spiders used the spider silk as a pulling thread, jumped up from outside the city wall, and fought the Imperial soldiers at close range.

The Legion had to invest more "Imperial Fists" to deal with the situation on the wall.

To make matters worse, the Crypt Spider has an accomplice.

Within the Necromantic Cult, combat areas seem to be divided according to factions.

The Crypt Evil Spiders obey the orders of the Spider Mother and belong to the Resentful Faction. They appear in groups on the northern wall of the Legion Fortress, where Li Nuo is standing on the wall at this time.

The Frost Skeleton Mages are a foolish faction whose master is the Frost Demon Bones. They attack from the west of the Legion Fortress.

Appearing south of Legion Fortress are War Spirits.

They have the ability to summon undead troops on the spot, and after a long spell preparation, they can summon undead artillery to attack the imperial soldiers.

The war spirit comes from the Necromantic Cult and the Madness Faction.

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

Anyway, this kind of undead extraordinary person who can be fought alone or in groups is far more difficult to deal with than the evil cave spider and the skeleton mage.

In the eastern part of Legion Fortress, where the steam train platform and tracks are located, stitched undead creatures headed by Undead Rippers and Tomb Corpse Soldiers have become the main force.

Li Nuo walked around there for a while and collected all the soul fragments he could collect. However, he could not find the undead extraordinarys who controlled the army of suture monsters, nor could he tell which faction they belonged to.

Anyway, Li Nuo must bite the bullet and carry out his plan to escape from the fortress.

He saw the right opportunity, and when no one was paying attention to him, he went to the wall to take a look at the scene outside.

"Hissing" the battle scene outside the city made Li Nuo take a breath.

Within the scope of vision, under the dark night, wherever the eyes could see, there were all kinds of undead soldiers, such as skeleton soldiers, big skeletons, walking corpses, bound spirits and so on.

At the end of the horizon, close to the limit of his field of vision, Li Nuo saw the firelight of the army fighting and also saw the figures of many biochemical giants.

These imperial troops who appeared on the edge of the battlefield should have come to support the legion's fortress. They were stopped by the undead army on the way. Not only were they unable to rescue the castle in time, they also got themselves involved in the quagmire of chaos.

Glancing at the scene near the city wall again, Li Nuo frowned.

Now that I have climbed over the wall and fallen outside the city, I am definitely looking for death.

Even if you have a trump card in hand, you don't have to worry about the undead attacking you, as you are very likely to be hit by stray bullets flying in the sky.

The soldiers at the top of the wall and inside the wall poured bullets like crazy, filling a large area outside the wall with barrages.

Li Nuo didn't have the guts to risk his life on not being hit by a stray bullet.

He must change his path.

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

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

He activated "Tracking the Living" to avoid the living people, and used "Fear" and "Cripple" to drive away the undead. He kept pace and accelerated towards the underground boiler room.

Steam boilers need to input clean water before they can discharge white, high-temperature steam.

The key lies in the source of the water body.

Steam is a necessity for the legion's fortress and the main energy source for various workshops.

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

Otherwise, where would there be so much clean water for the boiler room of the fortress to consume in this inhospitable place called the Crossing of Misery?

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

Based on various judgments, Li Nuo regarded the underground river under the fortress as his backup escape route.

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

Li Nuo doesn'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.

…

Three meters underground for the Legion Fortress.

An underground river with clear water flows from south to north, leaving a winding figure below the fortress.

The dark green pollutants in the river water are so dazzling, they are as eye-catching as the bruises on the knees of a pure bride.

These dark green pollutants that stain the river water are sprayed out 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 caused concern for the future of the river.

"Kacha kacha..."

The sound of brisk footsteps came from far and near, passing by the circular hole in the bottom of the river where pollutants spewed out.

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

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

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

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

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

It's underneath that dangerous building that is crumbling and could collapse at any time.

What Li Nuo is most worried about right now is that he has been unlucky - as soon as he arrived at the bottom of the castle, the castle collapsed, the foundation collapsed, and then he was pressed underground by tons of boulders...

Obviously he is not the only one to have this worry.

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

A group of humans who were beyond Li Nuo's expectation appeared near the underground river and blocked Li Nuo's path.

"Hurry up, hurry up, move quickly. Move all these ancient cultural relics away, don't leave any of them behind. We must take away everything we can before the castle collapses!"

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

When Li Nuo heard this voice, he raised his eyebrows, twisted his feet, and hid behind a nearby rock.

He blocked himself with the rock in front of him and used "Tracking the Living" to see through the scene not far away.

There were about thirty MI2 soldiers there, all of them fully armed, wearing plate armor, equipped with silenced short-barreled rifles, and wearing breathing masks that filtered poison gas.

Most of them are in motion.

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

Li Nuo looked at it carefully.

The MI2 soldiers came up from deeper underground.

The hole they entered must have been recently dug. There was fresh soil and gravel near the hole, and it was connected to an underground passage leading to the northwest.

These soldiers seemed to be urgently transferring ancient cultural relics buried underground to underground passages.

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

But why did she appear here?

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

Judging from Kasha's words, they are transporting ancient cultural relics...

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

Li Nuo murmured in his heart and did not dare to act rashly.

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

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

He listened carefully.

Downstream of the river, to the north of Kasha's position, there were dense and messy footsteps.

This voice brought back Li Nuo's memory.

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

As expected, a large group of skeleton dogs ran along the river and headed straight for Kasha and others who were carrying ancient cultural relics.

Kaisha discovered the skeleton dog immediately.

She pulled out the firearm from her back and used the lead-loaded "fire stick" as a hammer.

The soldiers who were carrying ancient cultural relics were about to put down their things and draw their guns to face the enemy, but they were interrupted by Kasha's unquestionable tone.

"You continue to move ancient cultural relics! Do you hear me? Put away the gun and continue to move things!"

Kasha raised her hand and nodded at two people, then ordered:

"You, and you, you two transformed into the "Imperial Ranger Giant", stop all these undead, don't let them interfere with our work! Hurry up! Stop grinding Jiji!"

The group of skeleton dogs is close at hand, and they are about to come into contact with the personnel of MI2.

After receiving the order to transform, the two soldiers put the ancient artifacts in their hands on the ground, took out metal syringes and stabbed them into their necks. They roared and transformed into fast-moving ranger giants.

The two of them took several steps forward, swept the curved swords in their hands, and swept the skeleton dog in front of them into the water. Then they raised their arms and fired the bullets in their palms with a "bang", detonating and volleying towards their enemies.

The battle on the scene was about to break out. More and more skeleton dogs came from the north of the underground river to fill the vacancies on the front line and fight with the ranger giants.

Although the Ranger Giant is very powerful, he is still a biochemical giant whose size is much larger than that of an ordinary human being. He cannot guarantee that he will stop every small skeleton dog.

There are always a dozen skeleton dogs that can penetrate the defense lines of the Ranger Titans, get under the crotches of the two opponents, and attack the MI2 soldiers carrying supplies.

Kai'Sa was stingy about her transformation opportunities and did not attack with the extraordinary posture of "Imperial Fist".

She used the butt of her gun to sweep away the skeleton dog, and kicked off the head of another skeleton dog.

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

"Quick, stop it all! Stop it all! Everyone build a fire net on the spot and kill these skeleton dogs! Hurry up! And you guys, go to the underground passage and call for help!"

Li Nuo hid behind the rock and frowned at Kasha's performance.

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 a fire network had been constructed earlier and support had been called, the situation on site would not have been so dire.

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

As the saying goes, wherever there are skeleton dogs, there must be skeleton soldiers, and wherever there are skeleton soldiers, there must be a big skeleton to command the skeleton soldiers.

Just when the MI2 soldiers barely used firepower to stop the skeleton dogs, a group of metal skeletons covered in metallic luster walked towards the firepower net, with firm steps and no fear of silenced bullets.

Further 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 ball of bone powder with every step.

Kasha's face suddenly changed drastically, and her voice became shrill and shrill, like a screaming crow:

"Damn it! How come the undead troops of the rough faction appear here! I'm most annoyed by these undead who add metal coatings to their bodies! Go to the car and bring the honey jelly bomb! Go!... How can we still provide support?

Not here! Where is Cavado?!"

"Kasha, watch your words."

A rich male voice sounded. Although the pitch was not as high-pitched and the voice was not as loud as Kasha's, it immediately calmed the frantic Kasha.

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

.”

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

Kasha was scolded by her superior, her chest was beating violently, and she clenched the rifle in her hands with both hands. Her face turned red and white for a while, feeling both shame and anger.

"Sir, I'm sorry, I lost my temper."

Kasha trembled, and finally lowered her head under the opponent's oppressive gaze, and tried hard to argue:

"Sir, the poisonous fog of the undead is filling the castle. Murphia and Grete are all fighting outside the castle. The criminal soldier No. 888 is probably poisoned to death in the solitary room. I just want to hurry up and kill the criminal soldier No. 888.

I got it, that’s why I’m so anxious.”

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

"I know you really want to pry out all the confessions against Mephiya from the mouth of Criminal Soldier No. 888. It seems that you two sisters have this kind of virtue. We are obviously a family, but no one will let this happen to the other."

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

"That bitch who learned the undead runes and I are not from the same family... She has soiled my own bloodline, and I can't wait to hang her on the gallows."

Li Nuo was a little dumbfounded after hearing this.

Do Kai'Sa and Murphya look alike?

It doesn't look like it.

Since it's not the same, why does Cavado say they are a family? Is it adoption, or a reorganized family after remarriage?

No, no. Kai'Sa mentioned the word "bloodline", which shows that there is a blood relationship between her and Murphya. But why don't they look alike...

Li Nuo was stunned.
