Chapter 44: So there are still such rules?
The area near the Soul Well is completely a monster concentration camp, and it is also a Gu insect concentration camp similar to Gu practice. All monsters are constantly killing each other here, surviving and swallowing the losers, and then strengthening themselves with the body of the losers, and then being killed and eaten by stronger opponents to contribute to the birth of an ultimate monster in the future.
"There is no way to travel with this kind of place, right?" Christina asked, looking at the chaotic situation in front.
Zhenhong nodded and said, "I think this kind of place is not the place we should enter at all."
"But I think we are right now." I said directly.
Not only did I hear my words, but even Christina and Sakura Yu Shenkai looked at me in confusion and didn't know what I mean.
"Have you ever thought about it? This place looks like a huge insect cultivation base, and monsters are constantly attracted to it to merge into the strongest monsters. The monsters we see now are likely to change in a few hours. Some of them die, while the rest evolve more powerfully. If our mission progress is too slow, what we see when we get here will be an invincible super monster. Do you think we still have a chance of winning at that time?"
After I said this, Christina and the others also reacted. Indeed, what I said is right. Although the Soul Well itself is not the required part of the task link, the environment here is so complex and all kinds of monsters are emerging one after another. In this place, we urgently need to strengthen our strength. If we need to strengthen our strength, we must untie part of the seal in the Soul Well, so that we can hope to pass this super complex task. However, everyone has seen the situation near the Soul Well. This is a cage for practicing Gu. The longer it takes to drag in here, the more difficult the monsters inside, so the most correct way is to kill directly while the monsters are still very low. Perhaps there is a lot of resistance to doing this, but at least it is not hopeless at all, right?
In addition, there is another potential benefit to killing these monsters here, that is, most of the monsters we kill here will also be produced by crystals. Since the monsters here have been strengthened by devouring each other, the various crystals they produce will have some special effects, and the crystals may be larger, so it may be better to collect the crystals of these monsters than to go to the village to collect the crystals of those primary monsters.
After understanding what I said, everyone's eyes became much more firm. They no longer complained that it was difficult to enter such places, but began to concentrate their efforts on thinking about how to enter here and get in touch with the soul well.
"That..." Just as we were trying hard to think about the solution, Yuriko, who had been behind us, shouted in a low voice. After we all looked at her, she whispered: "That, you don't have to worry so much!"
"Are there any rules here that we don't know?" Christina guessed what Yuriko was going to say at once. There are so many monsters here, and normally we will definitely be attacked after entering. So as long as we have no problem with our brains, most people will not think that this matter is very simple. Yuriko seems to have a very normal thinking ability, so since she can say such words, she probably knows some rules and other things that we don't know. In short, the actual situation may not be as bad as we imagined.
Sure enough, Yuriko continued to say with encouragement from my eyes: "Actually, all the creatures near the Soul Well have lost their thinking ability, so they will not besiege you. Those creatures will only fight one-on-one, and if you are fighting a certain creature, then no other creature will intervene in the battle between you, so..."
Although Yuriko didn't finish speaking, our eyes had already begun to shine.
"As long as we are fighting, other monsters will not interfere? There is such a setting? Doesn't that mean that we only need to face one monster every time?" Zhenhong asked.
Before Yuriko answered, I asked: "What if we attack a monster at the same time? Other monsters still don't interfere in the battle between us, or there will be many monsters inserted into us to help, or they will form a combat team of equal numbers? And what if our own people pretend to be fighting? The other party will think we are fighting and ignore us?"
I had a lot of problems. Yuriko was stunned for a moment before saying at a loss: "That...I'm not very clear about the specifics. I've only been here once before. At that time, my mind was still normal, not like when I first met you. At that time, I had many companions, and we could all feel the attraction here. After that, someone couldn't help but walk in and lost his mind and began to attack each other. And he didn't respond to the shouts outside. We tried to rescue people who went in, but in the end we just lost two more people. Also, we discovered the rules I mentioned before during the rescue process, but we had never tried whether our own people fought each other and other monsters would not participate in the attack."
After listening to Yuriko's words, I nodded and said, "It seems that we need to test it ourselves. Also, since Yuriko and the others will lose their minds after entering, we also need to do some tests. Although I don't think we will lose our minds, it's better to prevent it from happening."
"How do you want to test this?" Zhenhong asked.
I pulled my dragon tendon rope out of my wrist and said, "Of course I'll practice it."
"I'm the one." Zhenhong stood up and said.
"No." I handed the rope head directly to Chihuo Longji and Yingyu Shenqi and asked them to wrap the dragon tendon rope around their waists for a few times, and then tie a knot. Looking at Zhenhong who was not understanding, I explained: "You are the most powerful here. If you lose your mind and rush in, we may not be able to pull you. But if you are outside, it will be different. If Yingyu Shenqi and Chihuo Longji lose control, we can pull them out with our strength."
When Zhenhong heard this, we thought it made sense, so we prepared the experiment according to my plan. After tied up the dragon tendon rope, Yingyu Shenqi and Chihuo Longji walked into the open space tentatively. However, although they had left the obstruction of the surrounding trees, the monsters there did not have any interest in them. Although the monsters were in this kind of environment that seemed to be raising a gu land, they actually did not fight frequently. These monsters seemed to be drunk, moved very slowly, and looked stupid. Only when the two monsters were just close to the very close range would they suddenly return to normal and start fighting desperately. After killing the other party and eating the other party's essence, they would immediately return to this stupid state.
Although Sakura Yu Shen Hika and Chihuo Dragon Kid had already entered this range, they were actually a distance away from the monster group over there, so the monsters did not react at all. Obviously, what Yuriko said was basically correct, at least these monsters would not be siegeing outsiders.
