Chapter 832 Petrification
“Why don’t you go down with us and take a look?”
Mo Jiawei continued to test and said: “It’s not a problem to be passively defensive all the time, right? We have to figure out what’s going on below. What is it?"
"Yeah." Dude nodded, "Me too. I think so. In fact, we have sent several teams to investigate below. Unfortunately, all the teams sent out have disappeared."
"I need some time to prepare. I will take you with me later. Go down to investigate. I hope I can find some information this time.”
[Tip: The player triggers the team task Dude’s Perseverance].
Task name: Du De’s persistence.
Task requirements: Assist Dude in investigating the bottom of the cave.
Task reward: Dude friendship.
On the other side of the underground cave, Fang Heng also received a game trigger prompt.
Friendliness tasks.
I can't refuse at all...
...
Deep in the cave.
The team led by Du De fell from the second underground floor through ropes.
Beneath the dense pits is a larger cave layer.
Seeing with his own eyes the group of aberrations controlled by Ark Company, Du De was shocked.
A large number of terrifying lickers are piled up densely together, which gives people a great sense of security.
The three underground floors and the upper floor of the cave are different.
It was as if the ground had been bombarded by countless artillery fires, and there were scattered huge holes on the ground.
"That's where we found the prism."
The team walked forward for more than ten meters, and Dude pointed to a certain direction in the distance.
"A coffin for an alien life form?"
Fang Heng followed Du De. As he spoke, he controlled the lickers to explore the darkness ahead.
"Well, the structure of the life forms in the prism is different from any known life form, but they are very similar in appearance to us humans, and they are highly civilized. I think they are alien creatures." Dude said, reaching forward again, "The strange magnetic field fluctuations are coming from deeper places, and the energy fluctuations are extremely huge."
"Have you never gone in to explore before?"
"Special life forms are already a huge discovery. The country requires us to start research immediately. In addition, the detection conditions at the time were limited and we did not know enough about the unknown magnetic field fluctuations. Then, As the exploration progressed, the first explorers soon experienced radiation reactions."
"It was impossible to determine the magnetic field and the radiation. Whether special radiation is dangerous, subsequent exploration has been temporarily shelved."
Speaking of this, Dude couldn't help but lowered his head and thought, "Follow-up research on magnetic fields has not yet begun, and the first generation body is in the experiment. An accident happened. Now that I think about it, the accident was also very weird. Maybe someone tampered with it and caused the original body to be destroyed..."
Huh? !
Fang Heng's heart moved.
The game log shows Licker has encountered an enemy!
"If there is any situation, be careful."
Hearing this, the Du De team took out their weapons and formed a circle to carefully guard the surroundings.
That is...
Fang Heng's pupils were filled with red light and he looked deep into the cave.
A huge arthropod crawling aberration, its body has become extremely large due to mutation, with a body length of more than ten meters, and the length of its tentacles is nearly one meter.
Centipede? !
Fang Heng immediately thought of this creature.
The connection between the centipede's body and its branches is a round shape similar to a spore.
It looks very weird and out of place.
His tentacles were like steel needles, making a shallow pit on the ground every time he landed.
When players first saw such a centipede, they immediately felt like they were getting hairy all over.
The centipede crawled on the ground extremely quickly, quickly heading towards the player team.
The lickers were fearless and fearless, and under Fang Heng's control, they immediately pounced on the giant centipede.
The huge size became a disadvantage at this time, and a large number of lickers rushed on the centipede's back.
"Chichichi!!!"
The licker's sharp claws made a series of wounds on the centipede's body.
Illuminant green blood splashed from the centipede's wound.
Huh? !
What's going on?
Fang Heng was shocked.
The Licker actually appeared petrified!
When the licker touches the bright green blood splashed by the giant centipede, the licker's body is immediately covered with a layer of gray-brown, and the body quickly falls out of the air uncontrollably. In the blink of an eye, gray petrification condenses on the skin. state!
Fang Heng immediately opened the game prompts to observe.
[Tip: Your zombie clone is splashed with blood and enters a special petrified state].
The petrification effect cannot be removed by the undead effect!
[Tip: You have entered the petrified charm state. You are being petrified. Please stay away from the threat or clear the state immediately].
[Tip (based on primary game difficulty): The player's current petrification level: 0.02%. If the petrification level exceeds 20%, it will be affected by negative effects. If the petrification level exceeds 50%, it will be subject to attribute penalties and a large movement speed slowdown. Punishment, if the petrification level exceeds 80%, you will be unable to move and will be punished by a large number of negative effects].
There is trouble.
Just as Fang Heng was about to make a move, the crawling aberrations that had retreated once again poured in from the depths of darkness!
Bang! !
The licker that became a stone statue after being petrified is not only unable to attack, it is also frighteningly fragile. If it is swept by the centipede's tentacles, it will explode into pieces with a bang.
There is actually a melee effect of this kind of bug?
“What kind of monster is that!”
"Shoot! Keep the formation and retreat!"
This was the first time Dude saw this kind of monster in the cave. They ordered the team to maintain the formation and shoot from a long distance while retreating.
Mo Jiawei reached out to cover his left eye, stared at the alienated centipede body in the distance, and activated his natural skills.
"Level 6 - Alienated Life Form - Charmed Death Spider."
Level 6? !
Is that thing a spider?
Fang Heng’s heart moved.
It is actually the same level as the Blood Duke!
I thought it was just an ordinary monster spawning, but I didn't expect to encounter a Duke-level aberration.
Mo Jiawei quickly browsed the information obtained through the innate detection skills.
"Its blood has a petrifying effect. In addition, it can charm most living creatures through the patterns on its eyes and back. It relies on this ability and controls living creatures to provide it with nutrients. After radiation mutation, its ability Greatly enhanced..."
"The weakness is the fire attribute, and high temperature can make its blood lose the petrification effect..."
"Also, it is not a combat-type creature"
Hey! ?
Just as he was talking, Mo Jiawei let out a light sigh.
"What's wrong?"
"It's in a strange state. It seems that some of its abilities have been restricted?"
Fang Heng's heart moved.
Confined abilities?
Why were you imprisoned?
A sixth-level non-combatant creature, coupled with being imprisoned, means that its strength will be greatly weakened.
In short, let’s find a way to solve the petrified state first.
Fang Heng flipped his wrist, turned out the Book of Beginnings, and raised his hand towards himself.
In the dim cave, a holy light shone down. (End of this chapter)
