"These monsters are connected to the Internet."

As soon as Ian said this, everyone paid attention. They all understood the meaning of networking, so they knew the meaning behind it.

"Is the Lord of the Labyrinth using these monsters to observe our strength?" Isengard is most familiar with this aspect. After the Great Labyrinth of the South China Sea, he supplemented his knowledge in this area and immediately guessed the correct answer: "Then the question is The question lies in how powerful the master of the labyrinth can be. Generally speaking, even in a super-large pre-era labyrinth like the Alien Research Institute, there shouldn’t be many third-level monsters.”

"I think...not necessarily."

Anfa squatted down and touched the frozen monsters one by one with her delicate white fingers, but the gentle touch took away pieces of flesh and blood. The dragon girl said with a solemn face: "The transformation of these monsters...mostly failed. Yes. They are just improvised cannon fodder, even the second-level pounce seal."

"Although the third energy level requires the heart light body, the pure power and powerful body, coupled with the soul that can naturally control the original ether, are enough to create a 'third energy level alien beast', at most the price is It's huge, but not impossible. If the Lord of the Labyrinth really has a plan that must be completed, then we may indeed encounter the third-level 'King of Alien Beasts'!"

"indeed."

After playing with the 'electronic core' in his hand for a while, Ian put the ball in his arms.

At this moment, the white-haired boy raised his head and looked around at his friends. He said seriously: "To be honest, I have encountered creatures similar to these 'modified beasts' in another place."

With that said, Ian closed his eyes, and the scenes in the Avak Territory appeared in his mind... Soon, the memory was locked on what he and the Inspector Knight team encountered when they first entered the Azure City. Two-headed furbolg.

The battle between Tres and the two-headed green bear beast was not very intense. The captain of the patrol knight was a little more serious and killed the bear beast.

but……

"In the Avak territory, I did encounter a 'bear beast that knows martial arts'."

Opening his eyes, Ian considered what he could say and what he couldn't: "The bear beast was made using the human brain as a wetware, using the Chimera method. The human brain provided the bear beast with martial arts skills. , allowing the bear beast, which is famous for its stupidity, to use the 'overlapping power' and even the 'hidden power' that is difficult for ordinary warriors to use!"

"It can even use the superior 'Scale Fist' and 'City-Breaking Palm', erupting with power that far exceeds that of ordinary second-level monsters... Even I am now..."

Originally, Ian subconsciously wanted to hide his clumsiness again, but after noticing the frozen corpses around him, he sighed: "Okay, it's still the same instant kill. But you know what I mean, it is indeed troublesome."

"As for these strange beasts we are encountering now..."

At this point, without Ian having to say anything, everyone actually understood.

"You mean."

Xio suddenly said: "The empire has also obtained technology similar to the technology used to transform alien beasts in the Alien Research Institute?"

"Yes." Ian nodded: "But obviously, the technology over there in the empire is lower-end, and they probably just got some raw data, and are far from the advanced and mature ones in the Alien Research Institute - look at these alien beasts, you only need to pass After metal transformation, it can have full threat and combat effectiveness."

"And the technology displayed by the Empire in the Avak Territory is at least seven generations different from the technology in the Alien Research Institute."

Speaking of this, Ian was actually quite emotional - obviously, the technology obtained by the empire is in the same line as the Xenogeneic Research Institute, and maybe it is the legacy left by the scholars who came out of the Xenogeneic Research Institute... But after all, this is a post-apocalyptic world.

Nowadays, research is not as fast as digging graves and archeology. Serious research is not as fast as developing labyrinths and digging ruins.

Therefore, it often happens that the technology in such ancient ruins is more developed than the most advanced cutting-edge technology of this era.

at the same time.

The King of the Mountain, who had already arrived at the second level and was about to protect Ian Xiou and others while recovering the 'Essence Chip', stopped hesitantly.

Not only that, at this moment, all the fourth-level powerhouses were frowning, observing the 'alien beasts'.

Different from the juniors who simply thought that this was a labyrinth test, each of these big shots looked solemn.

"This artificial technology loading module... is obviously the most secret technology experiment of the empire... It is found in the Alien Research Institute, and I am not surprised that there is a more advanced version, but why... it is so easy, it seems to be 'deliberately' showing this technology?"

Prince Carlos frowned.

"...Semi-mechanized transformation without rejection is a technology we have only recently developed."

The fourth-level powerhouse of the Fertile Soil Department, Mafa Fertile Soil, was interviewing Speaker Yafoda. He said solemnly: "This is obviously not normal - it would be better to say that we did not find this technology at all when we explored the ruins before. , it appeared suddenly and seemed to appear just to tempt us!”

"……interesting."

In the Royal Court of Heaven, Gonta Ximer, this majestic general just showed his sharp fangs and smiled: "Specialized physical transformation - or 'free transformation'... Even animals can use it Human martial arts, and humans can also use the innate skills of monsters, the prototype of the ultimate goal of heavenly beings, actually appeared in front of me like this?"

"Spiritual network. There is a spiritual network inside these monsters."

The strong man in Yanjiang, Duo Tieyu, directly pointed out the most critical point in her mind: "It's weird. Although both the insect swarm and some psychic creatures have mental networks, this kind of technology obtained with the help of mechanical prosthetics The spiritual network is more universal and more stable...Is this true? Or is it a trap?"

【All dead】

Finally, the dead weapon dragon Afiboya explained to the little silver fairy standing above him: [These monsters are all dead. They are all pieces of flesh, but they are resurrected and move again because of their wisdom - they can even slowly breed souls with their power, and use this dead body that is a mixture of machinery and flesh and blood to give birth to new life again... This is life after death. , the existence and continuation after the end! 】

[My star, what do you think? 】

[Hmm...] The silver fairy, who was called 'Star', thought about it for a moment, then simply lowered his head and kissed the horns of the big dragon under him: [It doesn't matter, just ask Mercury Spring and the others to be careful. , we don’t care about these technologies, only human beings are doing it]

[Hmm] The real dragon that died and regenerated smiled and stared at the screen in front of him. He was not tempted by these 'exactly displayed technologies', but was calm in his heart: [The master of the maze this time is really cunning. Very...I don’t know what kind of existence He is, but he can so easily see through the deepest desires behind all the teams present]

[How interesting, Terra]

Of course, in addition to this, these fourth-level experts also noticed the performance of the younger generation in various countries.

The performance of Aina and Garr must be said to be quite impressive. The strength they displayed has exceeded the performance of the previous generation of fifth-level powerhouses when they were young. This is not surprising, because Terra's sublimation skills are constantly updated and evolved, whether it is blood or true form. Generation after generation of optimization and strengthening can make their descendants better than their ancestors.

In addition, the 'faith' they showed also made the strong men nod slightly. Regardless of good or evil, only by having faith can one become truly strong. On this land, only by stepping into the third energy level can one truly enter the big stage of the world.

Whether it is Aina or Gaar, as long as one appears in the past era, his country can become the overlord of that era, and if two appear, there will be a war that shakes the continent.

If these two are from the same camp...

Then, it was the Sun Dynasty that suppressed an era.

Decades have passed, and the afterglow of the black sun has ended, but a younger generation that may be even better than them is also growing.

"The successors of the City of Knowledge and the elves will most likely also have the prototype of the Heart Light Body."

The body of the Mountain King commented that it was unimaginable in the past that there were several third-level seeds under twenty years old in the same era, not to mention that there might also be such young talents among the forces that did not come. ...It sounds a bit exaggerated, but the real dragon is not excited about it.

Because, He knew very well... that the young lord in his team was the real monster.

"The official third level at the age of seventeen...is not just a forced entry, but a solid third level powerhouse."

He didn't know whether to laugh or sigh, he only had one thought in his mind: "These young generation of strong men were born at the wrong time. In the past, not only did they dominate Terra, they were at least temporarily the best, enough to attract everyone's attention. "

"but now……"

He shook his head slightly, but spread his wings and released his momentum to fight against the other fourth-level powerhouses whose momentum became increasingly fierce.

【Everyone】

The King of the Mountain said: [Now is not the time to fight - no matter how excited you are or how shocked your hearts are, always remember one thing - if we lose control, the juniors in the maze will be in danger... That may be the reason for the maze. The Lord’s conspiracy! 】

[Don’t be fooled by the immediate interests, remember our true purpose! 】

The King of the Mountain said the most correct thing, but sometimes, being correct doesn't mean anything.

In the outside world, in the ruins exploration camp, the momentum of the fourth-level experts is becoming more and more terrifying... Attracted by the core technology of their respective country's plans, the shocked experts feel not only joy and doubts in their hearts, but also more... Or anger and fear.

——These core technologies... must not be obtained by others!

Therefore, on the surface, many fourth-level powerhouses were confronting each other, and even had a vague intention of fighting.

In the underground ruins, the atmosphere among the Empire and Cangtian Royal Court teams was somewhat relaxed because they were fighting against the enemy together.

Gaar, who originally had a stinky face and was being rubbed on the shoulders by his cousin, suddenly looked startled, and then frowned.

[This is different from what was promised! 】

[In this operation, I am the alpha wolf. Garr, don’t question it, you can only obey my orders before becoming the new alpha wolf]

The other side.

The handsome young man with a single ponytail who was checking the sword in his hand originally had a smile on his face. He was obviously fighting with his companions and exploring the ruins made him feel very happy - but this happy mood soon disappeared after a dark mental fluctuation. trace.

【Father? But...this is a foul]

[Just listen to me, silly son. I don’t know who you have learned from. Do you know that proper fouls can better maintain order? 】

[I learned from my uncle and great-grandfather...]

[Why are you trying to learn from a dead brain and a dead person? ! Be obedient! 】

…

It is different from other teams that have committed various offenses, secretly transmitting messages to their own juniors, and using soul fluctuations.

Ian and others don't need to use this foul method at all.

Because before that, the third-level Mountain King's prosthetic body had already reached the second level and arrived at the team's location as quickly as possible.

——I came in the flesh, so there is no need for a foul summons!

"Long story short."

The silver-haired lady raised her hand to signal Xiou not to say anything, and then said to Ian Anfa and Isengard: "Every one of the strange beasts you killed just now has extraordinary skills - they It seems ordinary, but in fact it is probably the most elite technology in the entire Xenogeneic Research Institute."

"It is not an exaggeration to even say that they are the beginning of the way to sublime Terra today... It's just that the Terrans today have long lost these most primitive technologies and have to develop them again and study them from scratch, so they develop slowly. "

"And now, here, they have the possibility to complete their initial foundation and use it as a basis to carry out the 'Second Sublimation Revolution'."

Even true dragon blood holders like Xio and Anfa did not understand the true dragon's words. On the contrary, Isengard was thoughtful. He seemed to have heard similar words there.

But Ian understood it directly and suddenly said in his heart: "I see... It seems that the pioneers who opened up the way to sublimation back then were the 'Terra's First Sublimation Revolution', which was equal to or even surpassed the Earth's Industrial Revolution. Great times have changed.”

"And now, whether it is my arcane path or the various grand plans of various countries, they are essentially the 'Second Sublimation Revolution of Terra'! It's just that my path has been designated as a success, so I am this A pioneer of a generation!”

It was only then that he truly understood how significant the system he had established was to the current Terran civilization.

The King of the Mountain was still talking hastily: "It is precisely because of this that the fourth-level experts from various countries have begun to confront each other - they do not allow such technology to fall into the hands of other countries... Next, if you want to explore If you do, the battles and dangers you will encounter will be far greater than before - because other exploration teams may really kill you!"

"Before that, the overt and covert battles between the fourth-level powerhouses will also begin, and they will not be able to focus all their energy on the ruins... Do you understand the danger? My prosthetic body is here, and now you want Exit and I can protect you and leave safely."

After finishing speaking, the King of the Mountain stood quietly, staring at the young people in front of him with his lava-like eyes.

Among the young people, everyone turned their attention to Ian, who was thinking deeply.

"……I see."

He whispered to himself: "It's such a conspiracy - but this is also your last trump card. Take out the things from the bottom box and create the final chaos. No wonder... no wonder you will do whatever it takes to attract such a person." What an excellent dragon blood holder, no wonder you will run away from Terra six years later."

"If you stay in Terra, the Terran countries that react will definitely tear you into pieces... But at the same time, after completing your 'second revolution', you no longer need Terra!"

Although the words were confusing and others could not understand what the 'prophet' said, Ian himself completely understood the thoughts of the 'Dark Gold Dragon'.

He narrowed his eyes and said softly: "It seems that it is not me who takes the initiative to step into the desperate situation, but you."

Raising his head, Ian looked at the King of the Mountain. He pointed to the base behind him where the source material chip was placed: "So, it seems I don't have to hand over this rare object?"

"of course not."

The prosthetic body of the Mountain King shook his head: "Putting this kind of thing on the surface will cause trouble to my body, but if it is left in your hands, it will also cause trouble to you."

"It's just..." After saying this, the beautiful silver-haired woman showed a narrow smile: "The ones above are all at the fourth level who know everything... but below... right?"

——Unlike me who cannot defeat all fourth energy levels. Ian, you have the confidence to defeat all members of the exploration team, don't you?

"yes."

The white-haired boy with the perfect template raised his head, looked at the ceiling of the ruins, and smiled: "I have it. It's easy."

"That's good. But...before the source of dragon blood appears." The prosthetic body of the Mountain King cannot stay for a long time. This is a rule. Although everyone is trying to violate the rules, the most important thing is not to be discovered. '.

Before leaving, the King of the Mountain warned: "The fourth level will never really take action. If it is Ian, it may not be difficult to find out, but if you really show it... that is you A time to choose.”

"Also, there will definitely be many dangers in the third floor." After saying this, the beautiful woman stared at her daughter: "Remember, Xio, if you feel real danger, just call my name. Dragon's real name."

"If you call, I will come."

"Ah... um." At first, Xio was a little moved, but soon she realized something was wrong: "Wait, mother, isn't my true body right next to you? I'm just a prosthetic body?"

"Stupid daughter!"

The King of the Mountain gave Xio a hard chestnut. She had no grace and growled like a real dragon: "Have you forgotten what kind of research laboratory this is? The main research object here is real dragons. Pre-Era Biological Laboratory!”

"Even the Lingzhiyuan can capture your dragon soul. Do you think the civilization of the previous era can't do it? Remember it carefully. If you feel that you can't beat it and your life is really in danger, you must call my name! "

"Oh...remember, I can!"

Xiou held his head in frustration and waved goodbye to his mother.

And when she turned her head to look at Ian and others, everyone suppressed their laughter and nodded to her seriously.

Silence fell on the team, just like the silence when you saw your roommate's mother helping him spread a pink rabbit quilt in the college dormitory.

Xiou’s expression of death is really cute.jpg

"Okay, okay, your mother cares about you, you should be happy."

It was Ian who was the first to break the silence. He forcibly brought the topic back to the topic: "Whether it is a trap or not, or what dangers there will be in the future, first get our harvest source chip."

"Then... before the second batch of modified beasts appear, we should head to the third floor!"
