Mechanical Alchemist

Chapter 58 The Zombies Are Strange

In the complex crypt, Su Lun was leading the trial team from the "Black Tower Alchemy Academy" to play a game of fighting monsters.

And no one knew that on the ground block above them, a large tank truck disguised as a water truck stopped in a hidden alley.

A few men in black held some kind of instrument and probed the sewer mouth for a while, as if they were looking for something.

Not long after, the instrument glowed red, and the leader of the men in black spoke.

"Have you found out where they are?"

"Well, the target is about 200 meters underground, and it is exploring deep west."

"Put that aberration down."

"Yes, boss."

As they spoke, they opened the valve of the tanker, and inserted the pipe into the sewer on the street. With the wriggling of the pipes, streams of oil-like black mucus slowly poured into the sewer.

The shooting game of the cadets continued.

Su Lun also followed leisurely. Although he didn't go so deep last time, the surrounding environment was not unfamiliar at all.

In addition to the subway tunnels left in ancient times, this crypt also has many potholes dug by monsters, extending in all directions, and it is not known where it will eventually lead.

The distortion monsters in the sewer have their own territory, and Su Lun knew that they were about to reach the lair of those crawling monsters, a huge space like a subway hub.

"Haha. Captain Jack shot and killed eight more monsters just now, and they all shot to the head with one shot. He is indeed the number one sharpshooter in our academy."

"Our team has already collected seven cursed materials, and the trial task has been overfulfilled."

"Hey, Galen, your goal is too low. Captain Jack doesn't want these ordinary materials, we need higher-quality silver materials. I hope to meet more elite monsters, preferably 'weird monsters'." 'Level, maybe we can produce gold materials, and our test results will definitely be left on the honor wall of the college."

"Miss Leina, let me tell you, our team will definitely win the first place in this trial. The results of this trial will be our best coming-of-age ceremony."

"."

The four five-man teams advanced steadily, without any sense of crisis.

When they are free, the young students also chat and spank each other.

Su Lun, the guide, followed the team and seemed to be doing nothing, so he carefully observed every student in the team. Although they all wear gas masks and night vision goggles, their personalities can be roughly distinguished by their attire, skin color and figure.

Although I can't see the appearance of those female students clearly, I can guess that they will be favored by the stars, and their appearance is definitely not bad.

Especially the one named "Leina", there are always boys hanging around her, showing great hospitality.

Just passing by occasionally, Su Lun wasn't too interested in looking at those delicate female students. Compared with these, he is more interested in monster corpses.

Although the probability of "grey mist" appearing on the corpse of the deformed monster is very low, the number of monsters killed cannot be sustained.

Along the way, the students pushed the monster horizontally, and Su Lun also collected two clouds of gray fog.

Then he extracted some more detailed maps of the cave from the monster's memory, as well as some "anti-joint movement skills".

Although these actions do not conform to the normal habit of human body exerting force, it is undeniable that some of the skills of these monsters are quite suitable for him, a "puppeteer" with high agility attributes.

Just like the "Wu Qin Xi" in his previous life, imitating the gestures of animals can develop small muscle groups that are not commonly used in the human body. These monster climbing skills made Su Lun feel like he could climb walls flexibly like a gecko, making the most of his body's agility.

With money to take and fragments to harvest, Su Lun felt that this mission was not bad, at least for now.

Not long after, everyone came to an empty space, about the size of six or seven football fields, with high floors.

From the layout of the building, it can be seen that it should be a hub station of the old Lington underground rail transit.

Obviously, this is the monster's lair in Su Lun's impression.

When the trial team came, the monsters were briefly frightened and hid in various potholes and buildings.

The students were very excited. They were all in the cramped tunnel just now, and the monsters were all killed by people with good marksmanship. Now that they came to such an empty space, everyone had a chance to fight, and rushed over excitedly.

"Wow, this is indeed the lair of monsters, there are a lot of distortion monsters!"

"Haha, now it's time for us to show our talents!"

"Team three, come with me, we want to recover the test results."

"."

The four five-member teams chose a direction in various ways and started their suppression operation. Of course, except for Fat Charlie's team who deliberately came last, everyone seemed positive.

The two teaching assistants didn't follow up, so they chose a place with a high view and stood there, holding a notepad to record the performance of each student. That position is enough to overlook most of the space, and it can also be rescued in time after an emergency occurs.

Su Lun also chose a distance that was not too far away, observing everything here.

Although the task was easy, he never let down his vigilance. The safety of the students is guaranteed, but he doesn't think that if he is really in danger, those mentors will definitely save him, a gang member at the bottom of society.

He is indeed familiar with this space, and Su Lun also knows that it is the lair of those "zombie" aberrations. But he didn't know how many monsters there were and what kind of mutant monsters there were.

He looked at those buildings, and then at the countless dark holes above his head, his eyes were a little dignified.

Crisis intuition told him that there seemed to be something staring at them in the dark.

The two assistant coaches were chatting while observing the progress of the team.

"The new generation of 'Night III Battlesuit' is indeed very protective. However, excessive reliance on equipment will also cause students to lose a large part of their necessary crisis response capabilities. The effect of the trial may not meet expectations."

"Yeah, when we were in the first generation of trials, our defensive power was not far behind. Tsk tsk, these little guys should suffer a bit. Anyway, didn't the academy have an order to increase the difficulty of the trial?"

"Let's find an opportunity to test their resilience later."

"Well, there may be a chance soon."

The two chatted and did not avoid Su Lun. What he meant by what he said seemed to be that the two assistant teachers might do something to make the trial more difficult.

But thinking about it is also true, with bodyguards following at any time, those students will not be alert at all.

While the two assistants were chatting, something suddenly happened!

The students, in groups of five, were harvesting the lives of those deformed monsters.

But at this moment, an aberration monster with a size of more than three meters suddenly jumped out of nowhere. It was rampant like a gorilla, and directly knocked a team into the air.

Immediately, someone yelled: "Everyone be careful, it's a 'zombie is weird'!"

When Su Lun heard this, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he also focused his gaze on it.

The definition of "weird" is a cursed creature that is stronger than the same level, has a certain amount of wisdom, and usually has the ability to command other abnormal monsters.

In layman's terms, it is the BOSS monster.

According to different strengths, there are also ordinary, silver, gold, and lord-level distinctions.

There are usually three types of weirdness: zombie species (human form), ghost species (spiritual body), and strange beast species (monsters).

In terms of subdivision, there are some extremely rare special categories, such as "mythical species", "elf species", "phantom species", and "abyssal species".

And the distortion monsters that can reach the "strange" level will almost produce cursed materials, and the quality is far superior to silver and gold materials of the same level.

This is the monster that hunters are unwilling to face, but look forward to hunting.

"This zombie is so weird and powerful. However, the defense of those battle suits is too exaggerated."

Su Lun looked at the sudden situation in front of him, and after a little surprise, the strangeness disappeared.

With such a large number of abnormal monsters, it would be strange not to have one or two bosses.

The two teaching assistants obviously foresaw this, but they didn't remind them in advance, which also made those aggressive students suffer a lot.

However, what surprised Su Lun more than the ferocity of the monster was the "liquid combat suit" on the students.

At that moment just now, the "weird zombie" directly hit several students, knocking them all into the air. Looking at the impact movement and the speed at which the body flew upside down, Su Lun judged that the monster's impact was extremely powerful, no less than a heavy truck being reloaded.

If you were an ordinary person, this blow would probably kill you instantly.

But just like that, several students who were knocked into the air stood up intact even though they were in a panic.

Su Lun's vision allowed him to clearly see what happened just now, and he quickly analyzed some attributes of the battle suit: "The blue light mark on the suit should be the energy supply system, and the alchemy runes on it are at least level two. 'Sturdy Rune' and 'Toughness Rune' are really strange materials, they are like non-Newtonian fluids, absorbing most of the impact energy with fluctuations."

At this time, Su Lun saw that the blue light of the rune on the student who was hit the hardest had dimmed. Then he replaced a few new energy crystals like changing a battery, and sighed in his heart: "Hey, ten thousand 'cursed crystals' are used as energy, no wonder the defense is so strong. Another black money-burning Technology."

Regardless of whether this kind of armor can be bought outside, for ordinary wild hunters, even if they have it, such extravagant consumption is still unaffordable.
