Extraordinary Mechanical City

Chapter 251: Horror comes

   Obviously, it was not just Ren who discovered the anomaly in the stone chamber.

   But at this time, Bart also stopped.

   This experienced hunter, his face changed drastically when he found the nicks he had left on the wall.

  He stopped everyone: "Wait!"

  攫攫攫. "What's wrong, captain?"

   Everyone stopped one after another, their faces puzzled.

   Ba said solemnly, "I think we might be in trouble..."

   Hearing what his team leader said, the expressions of all the team members became nervous and looked at him sideways.

   At this time, Bart pointed to the nick on the wall and said, "This stone room, we've been here before."

   When he first entered the corridor, the old hunter leader, out of a cautious habit, engraved marks on every fork road and the walls of some stone chambers.

   Although it seems that this is useless, because everyone thinks they remember the way. In particular, the following section of the road is completely straight, and there is no need to remember the forked road.

   But because of this small mark, Bart discovered the anomaly.

   Sister Pasha is the team member who has followed Bart for the longest time. She naturally paid attention to his markings before.

   Now looking at the triangle sign with the direction indicator in front of her, her face changed drastically: "Huh? How could it be possible... Didn't we keep walking forward, how come back to the stone room we passed by?"

   The young members didn’t realize the seriousness of the matter, and guessed: "Is it a maze? Are we back again?"

   "The maze is definitely a maze, but it may not be as simple as we thought!"

   Bart frowned.

After a pause, he explained in detail: "I marked it before. This should be the twenty-third stone chamber we walked through! Since we walked into the corridor with this kind of stone chamber, we haven't encountered a fork in the road. If this is a labyrinth, it should be a'circular labyrinth' connected end to end. We walked back, why not the first one from the beginning, but the middle one?"

  The hunters in this world open up wasteland all the year round, and they have already summed up a lot of experience in exploring the ruins.

   They have all heard of the maze, and many ancient ruins have that kind of thing.

   is the kind of circular maze that is connected end to end, like a snake biting its own tail.

   Use the environment to deceive people's perception, making them think that they are walking in a straight line, which is actually a "circle line", infinite loop, alive and dead.

   But the law of that kind of maze is very obvious, that is, if you mark a 123456 sequence, then it will continue to cycle in this 123456 sequence.

   The way to crack the maze has long been summed up.

   But obviously, this one is not in front of me.

   They directly passed the 22 stone chambers in front and met the 23rd.

   So, Bart just said it was strange.

  ...

   Hearing these words, Ren raised his eyebrows and glanced at Bart. The old hunter leader was more careful than he expected.

   Zhi Nao also made the same judgment. This is the "Twenty-third" stone room.

   But, he didn't panic at all.

   The "Intelligent Brain" panel shows that there is no mental power fluctuation, so it should be just a purely physical maze.

  If it is this kind of existence alone, it will certainly not be infinitely broad.

   It’s a big deal to take a few more trips, and there are detailed comparative data of "Intelligent Brain", so you don’t need to think about it, and you can quickly find some patterns.

   Besides, Renn originally found some clues in the ancient characters and inscribed symbols on the wall.

   What he is worried about now is not this, but the sound of guns that occasionally enter his ears.

   Obviously, the hunters have already dealt with the monsters in this maze.

  厺厽dingding novel dingdingxiaoshuo.com厺厽. But those sounds were strange...intermittently, not like they were coming from the same corridor.

   He was thinking about what caused it, and then Bart spoke again.

   "From now on, everyone will make a mark. I am afraid that there will be problems with my judgment at that time, and there are other references too!"

  Bart’s arrangement is very reasonable.

   Before, he marked it alone. If there is a mistake in the senses, it is likely to lead everyone into the wrong thinking field.

   But if everyone makes the mark, even if Bart is dead, the team members will be able to read these symbols and compare them with each other.

   "Yes, leader."

   "Mountain Antelope Group" everyone took out daggers and carved marks on the wall.

   After marking, Bart greeted everyone: "Go! Let's go to the next stone room!"

   Ren was also curious as to how this maze exists, and he walked over.

  巘戅Dingding novel DIngDIngxIaosHUo.Com戅. After walking about a hundred meters, they found four consecutively numbered stone chambers twenty-four, twenty-five, twenty-six and twenty-seven, and then the mark broke again, and a brand new stone chamber was found again!

   After carefully observing that there are no signs on the wall, Bart's face became a little ugly, "Now... the situation is a bit complicated."

   Ryan dragged his chin, and immediately knew what the trouble was.

   If they encountered a circular maze, after the "Stone Room No. 27" just now, it should be "No. 28".

   But the stone room in front of me is someone I have never seen before.

   Then everyone left two more stone chambers, still a strange stone chamber that they had never seen before.

   This discovery makes people feel very abrupt.

   is like a complete corridor, and then only one section in the middle is replaced by someone, and replaced with a section of the corridor that has been walked before.

   Seeing this, Bart's hunters hadn't figured it out yet, but Rennes contacted the characters carved on the wall, his eyes gleaming, and he had vaguely guessed the way to crack the maze.

   However, the problem before them is not just a maze, but something else!

  ......

   Just when everyone in the "Mountain Antelope Group" stopped to study the maze problem.

   Suddenly, the thief who was in charge of clearing the road in front found something, and exclaimed: "Head, a corpse was found in the tunnel!"

   Everyone hurriedly walked over and saw that there were a few corpses on the ground and blood all over the ground.

   Two human corpses, two "kobold" monster corpses.

   The corpse was dressed as an ordinary wilderness hunter, wearing light chain armor, and it looked like a two-handed swordsman fighting with a heavy armor shield.

  攫攫攫. Their weapons and supplies have been taken away, and 80% of them were done by their companions.

   The emblem of the hunting group was also worn on the chest of the corpse.

   one person recognized it and exclaimed: "Head of the group, this is a member of the'Black Bird Group'!"

   Bart nodded solemnly: "Yeah."

   "Black Bird Wilderness Hunting Group" is a medium-sized group with two to three hundred members. Their squad is similar to the "Mountain Gazelle Regiment", with a second-tier captain.

   This is also the reason Bart’s face is dignified. If he can reduce the opponent's staff, it will definitely threaten their "Mountain Antelope Group"!

   At this time, Ren squatted down, put on his gloves, and carefully looked through the wounds on the two corpses.

   The fatal wound is on the neck, which is a canine bite.

   But the strange thing is that the skin of the corpse is dry and it seems that the loss of body fluid is the cause of their rapid death.

   At this time, Renn finished examining the two human corpses, and then looked at the corpses of the two "monsters".

   The two monsters are both jackal and dog heads, and they look a bit like werewolves after beastization, but except for their heads, their bodies are like human bodies, and they are smooth and hairless. Their lower limbs are a bit like kangaroos, and they look unusually strong. The skin is also shriveled, grayish brown, like a corpse in a cemetery.

I've seen sculptures of these creatures on both sides of the Shinto temple entrance before. Renn hadn't been surprised by their appearance, and he just made a hesitation in his heart: "This is what is written on the passage, the angel of death? "

   The fatal injury was on a very ordinary gun, and the bullets made holes in the bodies of these two monsters.

   pinched the muscle tissue, the touch is not particularly tough.

  厺厽biquge flyncool.com 厺厽. Ren used tweezers to check the bullet. It was a normal lead-iron bullet, and there was no special enchantment rune.

   He immediately judged that the toughness of this monster's body was similar to that of ordinary first-order transcendents, and it could be killed with a gun.

   However, he was immediately puzzled.

   Since monsters are so easy to kill, why are two people killed in this hunting group?

  ...

   Lane is the only surgeon on the team, and he is the only one who is proficient in anatomy.

  Although Bart has roughly determined the cause of death of the body, he still asked: "Brother Nicholas, from the perspective of your professional doctor, can you see how these two people died?"

Rehn directly stated his judgment: "There is only one wound, and the carotid artery was bitten off. But in theory, if an injury of this level is rescued in time, there is still a chance of survival. But the corpse has another. The characteristic, that is the loss of body fluids. I suspect that these two monsters quickly sucked away their blood while biting people..."

After a pause, he pointed at the corpse of the kobold again, and continued: "And... the injuries of the two monsters are ordinary gunshot wounds. It stands to reason that in such a narrow passage, monsters of this degree are not at all. Maybe killed two hunters in the crowd."

   "Yes, this is where I am puzzled."

  Bart nodded as he listened, frowned and thought deeply, and then said: "But since this kobold can be killed with a musket, the threat is not too big. But how did they succeed?"

   After a pause, he turned his eyes and said to everyone: "From now on, everyone should pay attention to the movement in the tunnel. Don't care about any abnormal noise!"

   "And, there is a little bit more."

At this time, Rennes suddenly thought of something and analyzed: "There are no extra wounds on the corpses of the two'Black Birds'. They should have been killed without any fighting or resistance. I suspect, This monster can be like a high-level assassin, approaching sneak attacks in a way that can completely avoid human perception, biting their necks and killing them with one blow..."

  Ba characteristically nodded: "I also think this is the most likely. These monsters should have a similar ‘sneak’ ability. Maybe they are hiding by our side right now..."

   As soon as this was said, everyone felt that their hairs were standing upside down, and they couldn't help but glance at both ends of the corridor.

   Except for this corner illuminated by the torch, in the distance, there is still endless darkness invisible.

   No one spoke for a while, this brief silence, on the contrary, allowed the atmosphere of terror to spread quickly.

   As if there is a monster hiding in the dark, it will suddenly jump out in an unexpected way, and then bite someone's neck.

   seems to be afraid of what will come.

   At this time, terror suddenly fell.

   A slightly frightened voice rang from behind, saying: "Doctor Nicholas, it's okay if you don't say it, I always feel that my back is chilly..."

   Everyone looked intently, but it was a new member who made a strong face and laughed, as if he wanted to use a joke tone to ease the horror atmosphere.

   Rain remembered that this young hunter was named Downey.

   At first, everyone glanced at him at random, and wanted to follow the response to ease the atmosphere. But in the next moment, everyone's eyes were stunned, and they all turned into horrified expressions.

  Because of this moment, they watched the black gauze-like smoke emerging from the cracks of the corridor bricks, and then quickly condensed into a grinning dog head behind Donnie's neck!

   Everyone pointed at Donnie’s back, but they didn’t dare to speak, as if they were afraid of something irritating, "You..."

   Downey looked at everyone's expressions, and immediately understood something, his face turned pale after a brush!

   He did not dare to turn his head, and in a moment of eye contact, two words were revealed: Save me!

   No wonder he feels chilly, because the dog-headed monster is crawling on his back, holding his paw on his shoulder...

   No one dared to act rashly, and didn't know how to deal with this weird scene.

   But the black dog's head didn't give everyone much thought. It was not polite. As soon as it took shape, it opened its mouth and planned to bite Downey's neck.

   "Boom!"

   And just then ~www.ltnovel.com~ a gunshot suddenly sounded.

   Captain Bart's eyes were quick, and he quickly drew his gun and pulled the trigger, hitting the dog-head monster's eyebrow with a shot.

   But what everyone didn't expect was.

   This shot has no effect at all!

  The bullet passed through, as if hitting the reflection in the water, and punched a small hole in the eyebrows of the black smoky dog's head, rippling circles, but in an instant it returned to normal.

   Rehn looked at this scene and was startled, "Immunity to physical damage?! How could this happen!"

   The two monster corpses on the ground were obviously killed by gunshot wounds. Why did Bart’s gun hit it, but it was useless?

   After this shot, the "kobold" had already bitten Downey's body severely, bursting out a cloud of blood.

"what..."

   A scream sounded.

   Not only Downey, but also a scream from another direction!

   Everyone realized that there was more than one monster in the tunnel!

   巘戅戅. Seeing that the physical attack was ineffective, Ren gave up the move of drawing his gun, and just wanted to take out the "Holy Light Scroll" to shred it, and at this moment, there were intensive gunfire in the tunnel.

   This time, I heard the sound of "puff", "puff" and "puff" bullets piercing through flesh and blood.

   Rehn took a closer look, and the two dog-headed monsters had been beaten into blood sieves and fell into a pool of blood.

   Ren looked at the kobold that was easily killed by a musket, and was stunned: "Isn't it physically immune?"

   Looking at the four monster corpses on the ground with the same cause of death, he suddenly felt that he understood some of the monster's abilities.
