Chapter 59: Mysterious Tower (15)
After reading the information of the previous two fortress commanders, Qiao Sumu restarted the system.
After canceling the setting of crossing the galaxy every once in a while, the blueprint of the fortress was called up on the central screen.
The fighting arena built by the black-robed alien is just the tip of the iceberg, just the gateway to the core area.
After that, there is the residential city of the giant civilization warriors, which has all the necessary facilities and presents a cyberpunk style.
Because the giant civilization is so huge, all the buildings are built very large, and even a door is four or five meters high, which is not suitable for the survival of the Shenhe body at all.
Su Mu touched his chin, which was covered with stubble, and kept flipping through the fortress system.
Finally stopped on one option.
A line of words was clearly written on it in the orthodox language of Shenhe: Species Survival Mode.
Oh, that's quite humane.
Afterwards, Su Mu switched the default option of beast body·giant civilization in the species survival mode to Shenhe body.
Then, it doesn’t hold.
The horned girl's amber pupils flashed, and she said to Su Mu: "Commander, there must be relative civilization, so that the system can screen suitable living conditions through the database."
"Is this so?"
Su Mu filled in two more words behind the Shenhe body: Mingjie.
However, since the system could not detect which civilization in the known universe the Mingjie belonged to, Su Mu had to add habits one by one in the settings.
After doing all this, the horned girl glowed with light and said expressionlessly, "It is estimated that it will take 120 hours, 22 minutes, and 35 seconds to switch species mode. Commander, please be patient."
In five days, the fortress, which is as big as a small planet, was completely reset. This fortress system is quite good.
Since using the system during the switch would slow down the reset of the fortress, Sumu stopped using the system.
Sumu learned about the place where resources were hidden from the black-robed alien's memory fragment, so he simply took Thorton there.
We didn't use the teleportation technique during the journey. Sumu felt that it was unnecessary. We just wanted to familiarize ourselves with the route.
Passing by a huge cygpunk-style building, Sumu looked around like Granny Liu strolling in a garden.
There's nothing we can do. The child is ignorant and has never been to such a high-end place.
As the species survival mode is being switched, everything in the core area is changing, and huge buildings are constantly moving, rotating, and shrinking.
About half an hour later, Sumu and Sodon arrived at their destination.
The man and the beast looked up and saw a high-tech platform standing tall, with the top of the tower reaching up to the top barrier of the core area. Everyone who saw it felt "awe-inspiring".
These towers did not change due to the switch in species survival mode.
Although abandoned for a long time, thousands of years have left some indelible marks on each building, but these marks give these buildings a kind of "battle-damaged" beauty.
From the memory fragments of the black-robed alien, Su Mu learned that after he accepted the fortress, he did not use the resources in the fortress to improve his own strength or that of his subordinates, but stored all the resources in the tower.
But every time he stored resources, he never let his subordinates come with him. He always came alone, carrying a few black balls.
This, coupled with the black-robed alien's determination to take over the fortress at all costs, made Su Mu feel confused.
His secret comes from this tower
Looking at the tower gate that had been closed for a long time, Su Mu frowned and did not dare to be careless.
After combining the Shura Armor, he summoned the Shura Purgatory Blade, split the door open, and walked in with Thordon who had already taken out the Thunder Steel Explosion Axe. As soon as he entered the door, a fishy smell rushed into his nose, which seemed to be mixed with neurotoxins.
However, for Sumu, who has been practicing the meditation and breath-holding method all the time, and the armored beast, Soton, who has become a mechanized whole body, has no effect.
The man and the beast continued to move forward. The further they went, the stronger the stench became. There was also some blood scattered on the ground, and Su Mu became more and more frightened.
It came to an abrupt end only at the entrance to the second floor.
The door leading to the second floor was covered with a thick layer of dust, just like the main gate of the tower, and it looked like it had not been used for a long time.
Su Mu walked forward and gently wiped the dust off the door, and the full view of the door appeared before him.
The door in front of him had some dried purple blood scabs on it, and was also covered with marks that looked like they were caused by wild beasts' bites, each of which had pierced deeply into it.
In addition, Su Mu also found several black balls with rotten surfaces near the door.
"This is."
Squatting down and picking up one of them in his hand, Su Mu observed it carefully. The black ball seemed to be rotting from the inside out, and there was a hollow space in the middle.
After a moment, he put down the black ball.
Although the surface has rotted, it is not difficult to recognize that they are the black balls that the black-robed aliens bring with them every time they come to the tower.
Although it has rotted, the black ball not only does not stink, but also emits a faint fragrance, as if it is the fragrance that offsets the fishy smell.
Su Mu stood up and let out a soft sigh.
All kinds of doubts arose in his mind.
What exactly is this black ball?
Why are there so many marks of beasts biting the door?
Also, why are there no scenes in the tower in the black-robed alien's memory fragments?
Su Mu just realized this problem.
Every time he entered the tower, the memory fragments of the black-robed alien only contained the scene of entering the tower, but never the scene of being inside the tower.
With all the doubts in his mind, Su Mu decided to move forward. He swung the Shura Purgatory Blade in his hand repeatedly, and in a few strokes he split open the door leading to the second floor.
Then, we entered the second floor.
Although he had prepared himself mentally, Su Mu was still shocked by the scene he saw.
Compared to the first floor, there was a stronger fishy smell, and the ground was covered with blood, scattered organ fragments, broken limbs, both animal and divine river bodies.
"What exactly is going on?"
Su Mu murmured.
Because he was always practicing the method of meditation and breath holding, Su Mu didn't vomit it out directly.
But the sight of the broken limbs and arms scattered all over the floor still made his stomach churn and he felt a little uncomfortable.
Suo Dun, who was standing by, scratched his head as he looked at the broken limbs and arms on the ground. He said harshly, "Who is wasting food like this? Don't let me run into him, or I'll have nothing to eat!"
Su Mu stopped his stomach from churning and glared at Thordon in silence. Although Thordon could see through the head armor, it was still a question whether he could see it or not.
Sodon was transformed into a armored beast, and the main changes were not that big. Sumu thought this silly and cute personality was quite cute, so he still followed the previous personality.
"Ok?"
Suddenly, Thornton seemed to have discovered something. He reached out and picked up a broken arm from the ground, pointed at the strange tattoo on it, and said, "Boss, this thing looks familiar!"
There are still four chapters to go!
