Chapter 60: The Strange Tower (Part 25) ()

"Boss, this thing looks familiar!"

Su Mu looked at the strange tattoo on the broken arm and frowned.

This tattoo is exclusive to fighters in the fighting arena, and the same is true for Sett.

Doesn't that mean.
Su Mu suddenly realized something and looked at the broken limbs on the ground.

Sure enough, anyone wearing leather clothes would have some weird tattoos unique to fighters on their hands or legs.

Moreover, the fractured ends were not as neat as if they had been chopped by a knife or an axe, but rather looked like they had been torn off alive.

Wuji Dayan did not detect any residual souls here. Obviously, these fighters had been dead for some time.

Following the blood-stained ground, Sumu and Thornton continued forward.

When reaching the entrance to the third floor, the same thing happened at the entrance to the second floor.

The door leading to the third floor was also closed. Unlike the second floor, there was a huge crack on the door of the third floor, which split the entire door into two halves, leaving only a point at the very edge connected.

Just like on the second floor, there were several black balls next to the door emitting a fresh fragrance, which offset the extremely strong fishy smell.

But unlike the second layer, the black ball placed here has not rotted, but the middle is not empty either.

Su Mu picked one up and swung it next to his ear.

However, no sound was heard, and the inside seemed hollow.

Su Mu couldn't help but feel doubtful, so with a flash of the knife, the black ball in his hand was split into two halves, and a strong fragrance wafted into his nose.

It was empty inside. There was no unknown liquid gushing out as Su Mu had imagined, nor was there a small monster with bared fangs and claws suddenly jumping out.

After putting the remaining black balls into the system space, Sumu easily pushed open the portal that was almost split in half, and entered the third level with Thorton.

However, no one noticed that the two halves of the black ball that Su Mu casually threw away slowly closed again after Su Mu stepped into the third floor, and then rolled to a broken arm and stuck to it.

The broken arm shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye.
...

the third floor

There was no fishy smell like the previous two floors, no broken limbs, and no trace of blood.

But there's a dead body on this floor!

Piles of corpses!
The naked bodies all have unique tattoos. Obviously, these bodies are fighters.
The bodies of the gladiators were thrown here at random, forming a pile of corpses, blocking the way forward.

So sad.
Su Mu sighed slowly.

When he was alive, he was a tool for the black-robed aliens to make money, but after his death he was thrown here like garbage.

Wuji Dayan couldn't detect any remaining soul either, so it seemed that he must have been dead for some time.

"Boss!"

Hearing Thornton's cry, Sumu turned his head and saw the stupid fish staring at the pile of corpses in front of him, swallowing its saliva.

"A mature armored beast cannot eat humans." Su Mu said softly.

Suo Dun smiled and said, "Then I will just eat the animal's body, okay?"

"Neither."

"Why?" Su Mu shook his head and said, "When fellow villagers meet, their eyes are filled with tears. How could you have the heart to do that?"

“I feel okay.”

Bang!
Before Thordon finished his words, the sound of flesh exploding reached his ears.

Turning his head, he saw black balls one after another breaking out of his body from the "food" he had been thinking about.

The unknown sticky liquid mixed in the black ball fell to the ground, making Thornton retch.

"Now you can." Su Mu shrugged and teased.

"No, no."

Thornton hastily refused.

Su Mu smiled and then looked at the black ball that crawled out of the corpse.

It was similar to what I had seen before, except that the black ball in front of me couldn't even be called a ball. Six slender forelimbs grew from the bottom, and in the middle was a mouthful of shiny sharp teeth stained with the flesh and blood of gladiators.
Could this be Malzahar's bug?
After meeting two people with LOL background, Su Mu felt that the unknown was not so difficult to accept.

Seeing these bugs, the phenomena on the first two levels suddenly made sense. If his guess was correct, these bugs should be the reason why the black-robed aliens were so unwilling to hand over the fortress at all costs.

The current situation is probably that it has eaten up the food inside the gladiator, so it came out to further devour the gladiator's flesh.

Although he thought so relaxed in his heart, Su Mu couldn't feel relaxed at all.

Because he felt a familiar scent from these insects.

Just like the mantis that Wang Tengtian encountered last time, this bug also had some airy smell.
Could it really be Malzahar's bug?
Su Mu guessed in his heart again.

As for how the black-robed alien obtained these insect eggs, it is still unknown. In his memory, there is no record of this period at all, as if it had been erased.

The only possibility now is that some kind of void creature has controlled the black-robed alien's mind and delivered the insect eggs to him, allowing him to secretly raise the insect eggs in the fortress. It is not uncommon for him to kill people in the fighting arena.

So, isn't the feed here?
It seems that the wings of this little butterfly are quite big, and even the void that the god of fart Carl has been thinking about has been attracted in advance.
Su Mu will never let go of this void creature whose only thought is devouring and has already taken shape.

He used the Infinite Ray to kill them all, then took out the Molten Scale Knife, swung out a raging flame, and cremated the bodies.

Then continue forward and enter the fourth floor.

The door leading to the fourth floor was intact, probably because the corpses were hit here and the bugs were only concerned with devouring them and didn't bother to destroy the door at all.

Su Mu decided to go all out and split the door into eight pieces, then entered the fourth floor.

Finally, there are no broken limbs, black balls or the like on the fourth floor.

This is a real resource storage place, with golden energy liquid, genetic engineering codes, and weapons placed everywhere.
The resources on the fourth level are enough for Sumu to advance to the second generation, but now, Sumu is no longer satisfied with the second generation, he longs for a higher level!
In the later plot of The Coming of the Gods, the second generation is everywhere, and the third generation is just a background board at best.

Although he has the Shura Armor, now in the state of the strongest energy, he has the strength of the peak of the third generation of gods.

But what Su Mu wants is not "foreign objects", but his own strength!
Thinking this in his mind, Su Mu came to the door leading to the fifth floor, cut the door into eight pieces, and then walked in.

However, the scene on the fifth floor left Su Mu dumbfounded.

The fifth floor seemed to be an exhibition room, with neatly arranged display cabinets, at least several thousand of them, each containing a tall body.

"Giant Civilization Warrior."

Su Mu murmured.

If my guess is correct, these should be the giant civilization warriors killed by the first commander.
