Chapter 615: Safe House (please vote for the super large chapter)
He Ao noticed Zhang Yusi's gaze and nodded slightly to her before moving his gaze outside the gate.
Zhang Yusi:?
"I······"
Just as she was about to remind her again, she saw He Ao's figure rushing out through a small opening in the gate like a phantom.
The sharp pyramid collided with the snow-white sword light, and was then swung away by the sword light.
Immediately afterwards, the sharp sword light slashed down, diagonally splitting the humanoid spiked monster in front of him into two.
Then He Ao instantly drew his sword and turned around, turning around to face the four pointed cones stabbing behind him.
These four pointed cones came from the two humanoid monsters closest to him. They saw that something was wrong and stabbed at him at the same time with their two pointed cones.
These four sharp cones pierce in different directions. Although these monsters may not seem to have much intelligence, they are extremely capable in combat.
These cones were extremely hard. He Ao could not cut through these cones instantly with his bone sword without using the power of his spiritual consciousness, so he simply did not destroy these cones.
While turning around, he raised the sword blade up, with the sword tip facing down. He first used the sword tip to deflect the nearest and lowest awl, and then the entire sword blade rotated clockwise around his wrist, blocking the remaining ones in turn.
The three pointed cones below.
Then he rotated forward with his body, and when the sharp cone of the humanoid monster closer to him was knocked away and his body was unstable, he cut the monster in half with a horizontal slash.
This slash did not completely kill the monster, but only destroyed one of the monster's energy gathering points. However, as the monster split into two and its body staggered, the monster behind it that had just attacked with it was exposed.
He Ao's movements did not stop at all. He jumped forward directly, rotating his body in the air. The sword followed the rotating movement and drew a bright arc-shaped sword light in the air. From the top of his head downwards, the sword was vertical.
He cracked open the humanoid monster that had not yet reacted.
With blood splashing out with gray light, He Ao's figure has passed through the humanoid monster that was divided into two, and rushed towards the sea anemone monster at the rear.
Almost in the blink of an eye, even before Zhang Yusi had time to blink, three of the four humanoid monsters seemed to be 'solved' so easily.
When He Ao rushed towards the sea anemone monster, the last humanoid monster also rushed up.
It stood in front of the sea anemone monster, crossed its arms, raised it high, and blocked He Ao's bone sword.
He Ao's body fell to the ground, the bone sword was withdrawn, and the humanoid monster raised two spikes and stabbed at both sides of He Ao's body from top to bottom.
He Ao did not retreat but advanced, and the bone sword that had been pressed down suddenly rose up. He simply mobilized the energy in his body and concentrated the force on his wrist and forearm.
Then he lowered his wrist and raised the sword, raised the sword abruptly, and reached the tip of the sword. The sharp bone sword instantly penetrated the monster's throat and came out from the back of its head.
The two energy collection points of this monster are very close to each other, but they are both in the head, so you need to use a little force.
The monster's movements froze, and its body fell limply downward.
stop--
At this moment, a sound that broke through the air came from behind.
He Ao dodged sideways and drew his sword.
A sharp spike pierced the body of the monster that was falling limply.
He Ao looked back and saw a monster with its upper body still looking at him, with metal spikes standing high on its back.
Just now, the first and third monsters, He Ao, destroyed two energy gathering points at the same time with one sword.
Only the second monster was cut in half, destroying only one energy gathering point.
As a result, its upper body can still be used.
At this time, He Ao had already withdrawn the sword blade from the fourth monster.
He directly raised his sword and threw it forward.
The sharp sword light streaked through the void, and before the half of the humanoid monster was about to stab out the next spike, it pierced its heart and nailed it to the metal ground.
At this time, He Ao turned around, and the sea anemone monster behind him had already squirmed and jumped away.
It seemed to see that He Ao had no weapons in his hand. It was about to run away and turned around. The tentacles above its head wriggled wildly, extending out slender metal tentacles and wrapping around He Ao.
Seeing this scene, He Ao just raised his hand.
Then he took a step forward and rushed in front of the sea anemone monster before the tentacles spread.
Get things from the air!
The snow-white bone sword appeared in his hand again.
This monster has three energy gathering points.
Horizontal, oblique, horizontal.
Almost in an instant, He Ao swung three swords in a 'Z' shape.
While cracking open the tentacles, it also cracked open the body of the sea anemone monster.
Along with the tentacles scattered in the sky, the sea anemone monster broke into four pieces and scattered on the ground.
At this time, the gate just opened completely.
He Ao stood with his sword in hand, bright red blood dripping down the snow-white sword body and splashing onto the dark carpet covered with blood on the floor.
He turned around, looked at the stunned Zhang Yusi, and smiled.
This is his true nature.
Does not use super memory, does not use any props, does not count any additional abilities, and has a basic physical fitness of 1194.
The most basic qualities are beyond the limit of C level.
In a sense, this was the first time he could use his power comfortably after being promoted to the Hidden Mage.
Zhang Yusi looked at the figure standing under the dim light, with corpses and blood on his feet.
At a certain moment, she even felt that the madness and pollution all over this strange area were no longer scary. The man standing with the sword was the true king of this area, the dream demon standing in the deepest part of the night.
It took a while for her to recover from the surprise and shock, and she became slightly absent-minded.
To be honest, she knew that Minister He Ao in the field department was very strong before she came here.
But this is a bit too strong, even like cheating.
Which C-level monster can easily kill four C-level monsters, as well as a monster with strong pollution.
It also has quick kills and no damage.
Is it reasonable?
Zhang Yusi felt that her long-established common sense and logic about extraordinary knowledge were being overturned. If it weren't for the fact that the ruins could only be entered by C-level this time, she would have thought that He Ao was a B-level boss disguised as a C-level and entered the ruins.
However, the gradual recovery of her sanity allowed her to quickly stabilize her mind. As the sea anemone monster was killed, the scream that rang in her ears and affected her thinking gradually disappeared.
She stepped on a pool of blood and quickly walked to He Ao's side.
She had never expected that He Ao was so strong that he would have such a plan. Fortunately, she did not tell the plan directly at the time, otherwise she would have been embarrassed to leave the three bedrooms and one living room by now.
But under He Ao's eyes that seemed to see everything, she felt that she had no secrets.
Well...as long as you don't admit it, nothing will happen.
She stood next to He Ao, squatted down, and looked at the sea anemone monster broken into several sections.
The outside of this sea anemone monster is squirming flesh, but the innermost part is a soft body made of slender steel wires. The body is even embedded with some twisted things that seem to be circuits and chips.
These mechanical and electronic creations are intertwined with bright red flesh and blood, looking absurd and grotesque.
However, these structures have been cut off by He Aogang's sword light, and there are only some tiny sparks soaked in the blood, indicating that these structures may have been operating normally.
"He Bu, after this monster dies, the power that affects the mind seems to have disappeared," said
Zhang Yusi looked away from the monster. After such a tragic scene, she felt that her mental acceptance ability was also rapidly improving.
She turned to look at He Ao, "Was the 'pollution' that caused hallucinations just released by this monster?"
"no."
He Ao shook his head. He lifted the bone sword in his hand away from Zhang Yusi and flicked his fingers. The remaining blood on the sword splashed out, and the entire bone sword body returned to basic cleanliness.
Although this bone sword has a certain degree of flexibility, its toughness is still not as good as those of metal swords, so He Ao can only wait until the blood is almost gone, and then use this method of flicking the sword to remove the remaining blood.
Of course, this cleaning method cannot clean everything. Most of the entire bone sword has returned to white, but it is still stained with a little bright red.
He Ao inserted the bone sword back into the simple scabbard on his back. The mouth of the scabbard was wrapped with a layer of fiber cloth. These cloths were tightly attached to the surface of the bone sword. The bone sword could be wiped during the process of sheathing the sword.
'Once.
The ruins passage is limited to three extraordinary items, but the bone sword is not an extraordinary item, so He Ao can bring in additional ones.
In fact, he also brought the pirate treasure chest into this area, but he did not want to obviously reveal that he had extraordinary space items unless necessary.
During a battle, if you suddenly take out an extraordinary item from a pirate's treasure chest, it will definitely give your opponent a surprise.
"Then who is this monster?"
Zhang Yusi was a little confused.
“wifi amplifier,”
He Ao put away the bone sword, "It will collect the pollution scattered around, strengthen it and send it out, creating the illusion that it can release pollution."
He turned around and walked towards the external gate switch that had just been opened by the sea anemone monster. "In this area, pollution is everywhere. It still affects you subtly. Stay vigilant and focused."
Zhang Yusi's originally somewhat relaxed state tightened again with these words.
She had tried her best to imagine the dangers of this 'ruin scene', but the reality always seemed to be worse than her imagination.
She stared at He Ao's back.
For some reason, even if the situation was so bad, standing next to the young minister, she always felt a little calmer.
At this time, the sound of fast footsteps came from far away. It was Yasien who rushed out after hearing the sound of fighting.
In fact, his speed is not too slow, but because of his unhealthy mental state, his pace is a little disordered, which leads to him arriving a little late.
Of course, this night is relative to He Ao's combat speed.
He stared blankly at the opened gate, the blood everywhere, the scattered monster remains, and He Ao and Zhang Yusi standing in a pool of blood, "Master He Ao, is this... what happened?"
"A small problem has been solved."
He Ao nodded slightly to him and walked to the switch.
Asien looked at all this, and he didn't think it was a small problem at all.
But he didn't dare to ask.
"Do you have a knife?"
He looked back at Zhang Yusi.
"some,"
Zhang Yusi immediately took out a dagger from her jacket, handed it to He Ao, and put back the heavy pistol she had just taken out.
He Ao took the dagger and put the tip of the dagger under the damaged switch.
This kind of dagger is a reinforced alloy dagger unique to the institute. It has very high strength and toughness. The sharp blade of the dagger was quickly inserted into the gap in the switch housing.
He Ao took advantage of the situation and inserted the entire tip of the dagger, and then slowly raised it with force.
Boom——倛
With a crisp sound, the switch housing that was riddled with bullets was pried open, revealing the main control board still shining with a dull light inside.
"It's not broken yet."
He Ao tore off the pried-off casing and threw it aside, looking at the circuit board that was damaged in many places but was still running hard.
As he expected, the switch structure outside was not completely damaged, so the sea anemone monster could control the gate.
He stretched out his right hand and pressed it on the circuit board. The mechanical core ring worn on the little finger of his right hand stretched out thin black lines and connected to the circuit board.
At this moment, he felt that he had some kind of connection with the control switch of the gate, which could directly drive the circuit operation and control the rise and fall of the gate.
In fact, at the beginning, He Ao was planning to use the mechanical core ring to open the switch on the inside of the gate.
But when he put his right hand on the gate, the feedback from the mechanical core ring told him that the switch on the inside was completely damaged, and even the circuit was completely cut off.
The switch on the inside was completely damaged. Although the switch on the outside was riddled with holes, it avoided critical points.
This is certainly not an accident.
From the very beginning, those who died in this passage a long time ago were affected by the pollution here. What they thought was self-rescue was actually on the road to death.
He Ao fell into a brief silence.
Zhang Yusi and Yasien beside him didn't speak either.
Zhang Yusi followed He Ao's movements and understood something, while Ya Xien simply did not dare to speak.
A soundless silence enveloped this small, gray space.
In fact, the situation they are in now is no better than those 'ancestors' who were polluted and hunted by monsters.
This 'ruin scene' is not simple, and further exploration is very important. When He Ao came out to see this gate, he showed his attitude of further exploration.
He Ao and Zhang Yusi's mental resistance is slightly stronger, and they can still support further exploration.
But Yasien, who is mentally unstable and injured, may not be able to withstand the stronger pollution in the deeper depths or the attacks of more powerful monsters. His leaving here may mean death.
Depression and silence accompanied by dim lights.
In the silence, He Ao raised his dagger, cut open the fixing pillars around the circuit board, and cut off the connecting wires.
Then he walked to the switch on the inside of the gate, pried open the casing of the inside switch, pulled out the broken wires inside, connected part of it to the wires on the circuit board, and used a part as a jumper to connect the originally damaged switch parts.
.
This circuit board is very modular and simple. The connecting wires can be directly plugged into the corresponding sockets, and no additional welding is required.
However, the final device was very crude, so He Ao went to pull some metal parts from the dead monsters and tied them to the circuit board for reinforcement.
Let it at least not be damaged by casual touch.
He Ao used a metal thorn from the monster to make a lever.
Under the gaze of Yasien and Zhang Yusi, He Ao moved the lever, and with a violent tremor, the entire gate began to slowly descend.
The eyes of the two people on the side changed from blank to shocked.
The mechanical core ring was hidden by He Aoyong, so the two could not see it.
The two of them only saw He Ao tinkering for a while. At He Ao's speed, it only took a few minutes.
Then I actually repaired this switch that had been broken for who knows how many years...
"He Bu," Zhang Yusi stood behind the gate, looking at the lever, with a mouth big enough to fit an egg in, "can you do this?"
"know a little."
He Ao replied casually, and then opened the gate again.
At this time, Yasien finally understood what He Ao was doing just now. He opened his mouth and finally said softly, "Master He Ao, thank you."
This inside is an independent space, and the overall pollution level is low. Once the gate is closed, it is equivalent to a small safe house.
This gate is still strong. If He Ao wanted to destroy the gate, he would have to attach spiritual consciousness to the bone sword to break it easily.
He could have forced the gate open just now, but his consciousness was limited and he would not waste it in such a place.
It is very difficult for those C-level humanoid monsters to break through this gate.
If this gate were not strong at all, it would not be used as a barrier by those who once hid behind it.
The strength of this gate can also be seen from the fact that they died of mental influence in the end instead of being forcibly broken open and massacred.
"It's okay, I'm also making some backup preparations for myself."
He Ao nodded.
This safe house can also be used as one of their last escape routes. For example, if Howao encounters problems during the subsequent exploration, he can return here first.
This safe house needs an 'eye', or 'gatekeeper', who can operate the gate inside and be able to identify friends and foes.
When they first encountered the battle, Yasien was able to rush over regardless of the risk, proving that he at least knew how to be grateful and could actually act grateful for He Ao's help just now.
Combined with his kindness in running back to remind him before.
He Ao is more inclined to believe that this person is reliable.
And Yasien’s current physical condition makes it perfect to stay in the safe house.
According to Ronald's memory, people who have resisted mental pollution once will not be easily controlled when encountering the same pollution again. They will have a certain degree of resistance. If the right method is found, this resistance will be further enhanced.
.
Of course, Yasien's mental state is definitely not comparable to someone like Zhang Yusi who is very resistant from the beginning.
But it should still be possible to resist some external pollution interference in a safe house.
The pollution intensity here is not high, and it is probably not the core area of this 'ruin scene', so the impact it faces will not be too great.
So Asien is just the right fit.
Yasien is not stupid. Although he does not have as rich a knowledge reserve as He Ao, he knows that He Ao wants to keep him here as a 'gatekeeper'.
After all, with the methods He Ao has shown, if there is no 'gatekeeper', there are probably other methods, but they may be more troublesome.
If there is not this safe house, there will be other safe houses.
For He Ao, this may be just a simple choice, but it is related to his life and death.
Without this gate, even if he had been hiding here, he might have been stabbed to death by a C-class monster that suddenly rushed out.
He opened his mouth, murmured, and finally his thousands of words just turned into one word, "Thank you."
"fine,"
He Ao smiled.
At this moment, the gate has been completely opened again. He took Zhang Yusi out of the gate. He looked at Yasien standing behind the door and said with a smile, "I believe you."
Yasien opened his mouth, and then bowed heavily to He Ao.
He Ao waved to him and turned around.
The gate slowly closed, and outside the gate was a long corridor. He Ao was now at a 'T' intersection. He now had two directions to choose from, the left and right.
He lowered his head and glanced at the dark brown blood stains on the ground. The blood stains on the right side seemed to be thicker.
"Let's go this way,"
He Ao glanced back at Zhang Yusi, pointed to the right side, and walked towards the right side, "If you feel any discomfort, please tell me immediately."
"Yeah!"
Zhang Yusi nodded and followed He Ao.
She looked back at Yasien, who had been watching them and watching them go away.
‘Moonlight’ is the enemy of the institute.
Yasien was obviously scared at first and avoided He Ao, but in this short period of contact and interaction, he unknowingly became He Ao's actual "loyal partner".
Is this the personality charm of this He Bu?
She looked back at He Ao's thin but upright back, and an invisible sense of security emerged in her heart.
"He Bu, where should we go next?"
The dim lights no longer seem so depressing.
"First find a usable map,"
He Ao glanced ahead and said, "This area definitely didn't become like this naturally. It must have its own special features. We must take the initiative in our own hands."
This time there is a high probability that a certain ‘friend’ is involved.
It is not his character to sit still and wait for death.
