Chapter 737: Weak and powerful

Compared to Sylvia, Leo has a clearer grasp of what is in the ruins, and even more so than those involved.
From the moment when the situation was found to be wrong, Leo's Spiritual Web has enveloped the entire ruin, carefully watching all the changes here.
Although his spiritual network sometimes shows things that are not perceivable, such as the sudden appearance of mist, what happened to those scholars is still under his control.
From the moment the mist appeared, the twisted symbols and Turing-like root patterns on the ruin wall began to produce a wave of energy fluctuations. These energy fluctuations were not strong, but they were very weird, with great infestation Sexuality, Leo's spiritual web senses them, and they also infect Leo through the spiritual web.
It’s just that the mental infections caused by these energy fluctuations don’t even affect Leo’s mind, even the protection formed by the marks of the gods can’t penetrate, and eventually they are absorbed by the pattern that represents Leo’s back on the back of Leo. Like he absorbed the mist in the fog outside the town on the lake, it also made him more sure about the origin of the mist.
Sixth-level psionicists such as Leo are so far away that they will still be infested with this energy. Those scholars who are close to the ruins will naturally be able to escape the energy-infected end, and they are not only mentally infected. By the way, even the body is mutated by the energy and surrounding mist, and becomes a twisted and vicious monster.
The rapid mutation of the body will inevitably consume a lot of energy, and cannot consume the energy of these mutants from the outside community, so when the mutants complete the mutation, they first think of supplementary energy, and the best supplementary energy The solution is food.
While these monsters are mutating, it is clear that the first thing they lose is their intelligence, which has only biological instincts, and a strong sense of hunger drives them to start with the other monsters closest to them. The weakest mutant is first eaten by the powerful mutant , Followed by another weak mutant who was besieged and eaten again, and kept repeating, until the remaining mutants felt that the opponent's power was no less than their own, they began to put the target elsewhere, such as standing on the plank road without Mutant people.
Under the monitoring of Leo's spiritual network, there are a few variants that grow a dozen limbs, their bodies are elongated, and they look like centipedes. They are close to the wall of 90 degrees like a flat ground, and they climb quickly. Arrived on the plank road, and then rushed towards the panicked ordinary person.
The same scene is still going on in other parts of the plank road. Those scholars have no power to fight back at all. They can only make a scream when they are thrown to the ground by monsters.
At the same time, several mutants also found Leo and Sylvia. They quickly rushed towards the two, all of them with their toothy mouths grew large, as if they wanted to take Leo all in one bite. Eat it away.
Facing the mutant who rushed over, Leo was preparing to pull out the king and queen and solve them, but Sylvia moved faster than him, and directly raised his crossbow to the mutants who rushed over. Several arrows were shot from the head.
Although the crossbow looks very light and has little power, the only advantage seems to be the continuous shooting box, but the arrow fired from the crossbow is actually no slower than the bullet shot from the queen, and it shoots After hitting the target, a strong impact force will flow from the arrow, directly tearing all objects within a range of nearly twenty centimeters around the wound.
This caused the heads of these mutants to disappear instantly, and part of their necks and shoulders also disappeared, and their bodies fell to the ground with heavy weight. The blood spattered from the wounds and instantly filled the surrounding with blood.
The strong nature naturally attracted those who are still very hungry mutants, and this attraction is so great that they let them pass the ordinary people who are about to come to their mouths, quickly facing Leo and Sylvia The corner was rushed over.
In fact, it is not difficult to speculate the reason. The energy of the mutant's flesh contains far more than the ordinary human's flesh, and the mutant's flesh also has substances that can make these mutants further mutate. The mutator's body undergoes secondary mutations, not only becoming more draconian but also larger.
However, in the face of a large group of menacing mutants, Sylvia appeared very calm, instructing Leo not to start, following her like playing a target game, quickly pulling the trigger of the crossbow towards the heads of those monsters. Each arrow can easily take the life of a monster. These monsters, which are extremely fatal to others, are like a lamb in front of her. She doesn’t even need to close hands, just by hand The crossbow has wiped out these monsters.
While Sylvia pointed his crossbow at the last mutant who was still alive, Leo reached out to stop her attack and said, "Wait, see what it can eventually mutate into. "
Sylvia nodded, put down his crossbow, and then looked at the mutant below, ignoring the danger from above, swallowing the corpses of the same kind with a big mouth, and suddenly felt a little sick in his heart, so he turned his head, no more. A glance at the mutated monster said to Leo: "These monsters are not stronger than ordinary people except for a little more power, a stronger body and a gritty appearance."
"A little disappointed?" Leo looked at Sylvia with a boring look.
Sylvia nodded, took apart the arrow box under the crossbow, and replaced it with a new one, saying, "There is indeed a little bit. Such a battle is not as intense as in the morning. I want to test the strength of my body now. Bottom line." After changing the arrow box, she hung her crossbow back to her waist, then waved the stick sword in her hand and said, "I already knew that I just used the sword sword to fight me."
"You can try it later." Leo pointed to the mutant who was mutating rapidly after devouring similar bodies.
I saw that this mutant has been eating faster and faster. Its mouth has become a mouthpiece that is easy to swallow for fast eating. The body is also elongated to accommodate food. A layer of scales has grown on the surface of the body. Under the light, it even exudes metallic luster. A large number of tentacles protrude from its body surface and look like hair, but if you look closely, you will find that each tentacle is a vacuum. The straw, if plunged into the prey, can instantly draw blood from the prey.
Seeing the mutants in this form, Sylvia's expression became slightly aloof, disregarding the disgust of the disgusting scene below, watching the mutation process of the mutants in front of me, and thinking quickly in my heart. How would she fight against such mutants.
Compared with Sylvia's ability to judge the opponent's ability only by observing the changes of the mutant, Leo penetrated into the mutant's body through the spiritual network, and observed the rapid mutation of the mutant's body at a deeper level.
He found that as more mutant corpses were eaten, the organs in the mutant body decreased rapidly, and the functions of the organs also quickly merged. Later, it seems that there is only one stomach left, even the brain and the stomach. It is integrated, and an energy block with this strong energy fluctuation is condensed in its stomach.
When the body of the last mutant was engulfed, the mutation of this mutant gradually slowed down and finally stopped, and its shape has nothing to do with humans. It looks like a tentacle covered with metal Horny worm with huge mouthparts.
As the corpse digested in the only organ in its body, its devoured objects aimed at Leo and Sylvia who were watching over it.
I saw that the mutant's body seemed to be spring-loaded and sprang from the ground. The body seemed to lose weight and flew into the air. The huge mouthparts opened like blooming flowers, and the mouthparts were full of sharpness. It was like a sharp-edged tooth, and tentacles rushed out of the mouthparts, and surrounded Leo and Sylvia as if they wanted to restrain them and drag them into the mouth.
In the face of the attack of the mutant, Leo is still standing still. He seems to have absolute trust in the power of Sylvia, and Sylvia has not lived up to his trust. She gushed out into a large invisible hand and easily pinched the mutant into the air, while Sylvia's wand sword also seemed to swing casually.
A sword light flashed, and the seemingly powerful mutant was separated from the middle, broken into two sections, and fell to the ground.
Sylvia retracted the sword in his hand into the scabbard, reverted back to the look of the cane, and then turned his head and raised his head proudly towards Leo.
Leo is not surprised that Sylvia can solve this mutant, because although this mutant has accumulated an energy block in the body, it still only relies on the instinct of the body to fight, at best it is just a stronger beast. .
What really surprised Leo was the stick sword in the hands of Sylvia, because in his opinion, the power of this stick sword was almost comparable to the particle wave knife after being excited. Know that the particle wave knife is a star The Marine Corps is used to cut the armor of the spacecraft and attack important weapons inside the spacecraft.
However, although Leo was curious about the origin of this stick sword and was more curious about the structure of this stick sword, he still resisted curiosity and did not ask Sylvia to study the stick sword, even if he knew if he said By the way, Sylvia will not refuse.
Leo turned his attention back to the corpse below, and saw that he used psionic energy to find the energy block from the mutated corpse and ingest it.
Sylvia only saw Leo reaching out to the mutant's body to make a grab, and a very beautiful gem was drilled from the ugly and disgusting body and flew into Leo's hand, suspended in Above the palm.
"What is this?" Sylvia asked curiously.
Leo answered truthfully: "An energy block, and it is a very stable energy block."
"What's the use?" Sylvia asked again.
This question made Leo stunned for a while. If it is in the Earth Federation, Leo can say tens of thousands of ways to use this energy block, but here, in this Velon world, the energy block seems to be more than a gem, except as a gem. There is no other function.
"No, since it evolved this thing, then this thing will definitely be useful to it." Leo's eyes fell on the mutated corpse below, and a guess was born in his heart, and he told Sylvia.
Sylvia also said with regret: "It seems that I should start with a little lighter, let this guy live for a while, and use all the strength of his body, that's right!"
At this time, the mist in the ruins below suddenly began to lighten up, and then dissipated at a rapid rate. It didn't take long for the mist to completely dissipate, leaving only a mess.
Just as the mist disappeared, the walls around the cave also returned to their original shape, and the entrance and exit also reappeared, as if everything just now was just an illusion.
In addition to Leo and Sylvia, there are still several lucky scholars alive in the whole cave, but their situation is not very optimistic, and they don’t know whether it is because they were scared by the mutant, or because of other reasons. All are stupid and crazy.
"It's a pity that the scholars who died can almost be said to include most of the most outstanding archaeologists in the Kingdom of Marais." Sylvia suddenly sighed, and soon returned to normal, asking Leo: " What are we going to do next?"
"Find out the cause of the fog." Leo immediately replied: "That's where the ring channel exits."
When he had finished, he jumped off the plank road, stepped on the blood of a place, and walked towards a ring-shaped open space in the ruins.
Sylvia originally wanted to keep up with it~EbookFREE.me~ But after seeing the messy appearance of blood and internal organs on the ground, she stopped jumping, but walked along the wall of the wall and walked a distance Before jumping into the rubble and following.
When Sylvia kept up with Leo, Leo was already standing on the ring-shaped open space. This open space was not very large, and it should not be a facility like a rest square.
There are a lot of square stones on the ground of the open space. All the stones have some patterns and symbols on them. However, because of aging wind erosion, etc., most of the patterns and symbols on the slate have been very vague and unrecognizable. To show his face.
The reason why Leo chose to investigate here is mainly because his sight just now saw that the fog here first dissipated. According to common sense, it is likely that the fog is the first place to appear, that is, the entrance and exit of the channel.
It's just that Leo's Spirit Net scanned this place again and again, even deeper than a dozen meters underground, and found no abnormalities, even energy fluctuations.
But it was this state of absence of any anomalies that made Leo more convinced that this is the entrance and exit of the ring channel.
