The first thousand one hundred and sixty-three chapters of the city?
Breathing, a big breathing is the only thing Bruto can do now. Just when he saw the spike passing through his chest just now, he thought that he was probably finished, because according to legend, his soul was dragged away by the monster's tentacles, leaving only a corpse full of fear expressions waiting for it to be discovered soon.
However, what he never expected was that he could escape from death, so an inexplicable joy arose in his heart. But before he could feel this joy carefully, a flame-like heat came out from the pain in his chest and instantly spread to his whole body. He also fell into a coma under the impact of this heat.
Just as Bruto fainted and then again, he grabbed his clothes with one hand and lifted him from the ground, then stretched out the other hand, tearing open the clothes on his chest, revealing a branded wound on his chest.
"This is an interesting phenomenon!" Only Leo's voice was heard from the shadows, and then he saw Leo wearing a long windbreaker and a certain wide-brimmed hat standing under the lights on the street. Then he put Bruto on the ground and carefully inspected Bruto's body.
If it was an ordinary wound, Leo would not have paid special attention to this person who was attacked by a long night monster. After all, in the past half day, he had seen more than twenty monster attacks in the city of Odorene. Most of them died on the spot, and a few survived, but they were not as good as death.
Only, the person in front of him survived after being fatal attacked by the long night monster. Moreover, his body seems to be undergoing some transformation, and some unknown power is being stimulated in his body, rather than being eroded by the monster's power, and inhuman mutations occur. At least from the current situation, the transformation of this person is a benign transformation.
This seemed more like a miracle to Leo, because after most of the day hunting these monsters that appeared in the city for a long time, he thought he had already known this monster very well, so he also knew very well that the power of this monster was no less effective than a very poisonous person. The situation of the person in front of him was like drinking a bottle of fatal poison in one gulp, and the poison turned into a nutrient solution. Not only did he not hurt the person, but he helped the person stimulate some extraordinary power.
Those who know some of the monsters that appear in the long night will regard these monsters as the same monsters as the mutant monsters that appear normally, but Leo found that this view was completely wrong, because according to the substances left after the death of the two monsters, the difference in their original powers can be found.
For example, the mutant monsters that appear after the fog disaster are almost all mutated from some wild beasts or humans. Their mutations are all irregular and have all kinds of strange powers. Someone once thought about counting how many monsters there are in the world, but the result ended in failure. Because all monsters have different forms and different forces, there are no monsters with exactly the same shape from strength to appearance, this also leads to a completely different origin of their power.
However, with the long night, these monsters appear differently. Although their appearance and way of displaying power are also different, it is not difficult to see through the details of the power contained in the remaining matter after they are killed that their original power should be the same power, but this power is too huge and too complex, and it is finally displayed in different forms.
For example, the monster just now created an energy conduit through its own power, inserted it into the target body, extracting blood and energy from the target body, and its appearance is a black outer skin that can perfectly blend with the surrounding darkness.
However, the power contained in the skin that remains after this monster was killed is at least judging from the energy fluctuations, it is exactly the same as the various monster residues that Leo has harvested now, but their method of exerting power has completely different effects after exerting power.
Now that Leo has the materials for him to test several times, he does not need to continue hunting in Odorene City for the time being, and now such an interesting experimental subject has appeared, so he plans to work on the quarry laboratory to record the transformation process of this person while processing the materials in his hand, and see if he can find another way from him that can allow ordinary people to obtain extraordinary power.
Just as Leo rolled up the remaining outer skin of the monster on the ground and put it in his backpack, preparing to carry the man on the ground to leave, a light suddenly lit up on the city wall in the distance. At that time, the beacon signal made through a special recipe will only be used when the monster sieges the city. This light is very eye-catching even during the day, let alone in the long night.
Sure enough, Leo heard the roar of monsters and the screams of humans coming from there. Then the unique mechanical friction sound of large mechanical crossbows also passed through the quiet sky and spread in the city. It seemed that there should be a group of monsters hitting the city wall. Moreover, judging from the mechanical crossbows used to defend the city, there may be large monsters in the group of monsters.
Such a huge sound and eye-catching light naturally alarmed the people in the city. Many people boldly opened the windows, even opened the doors, and looked in the direction of the sound. Even if their eyes were blocked by the surrounding houses, they would not seem to be at ease without taking a look.
Leo's attention was also attracted by such a big noise, but he was not because of those sounds, but because of the waves of energy coming from the city walls and the strange force field that was operating underground in the city.
The energy wave transmitted by the city wall should be a counterattack formed by the power contained in the city wall after some monsters hit the city wall. This is not necessary to think about it, but the force field that is operating underground in the city surprised Leo, because this power is clearly a wizard magic array composed of Turing roots, and this magic array was something he had not discovered before.
The reason why I didn't discover it is because this Turing magic circle perfectly overlaps with the giant under the city of Odorene. When Leo's spiritual network and spiritual vision observe the giant, what I see will only be the giant's bones, flesh and blood that are transformed into part of the earth.
However, now the monster siege has alarmed the hidden defense methods in the entire city, and then stimulated the Turing roots that were integrated into the giant's body, eventually forming this strange energy force field hidden deep underground.
From preliminary observations, the effect of this energy force field is divided into two, one is to transport energy to the city wall to resist the impact of monsters, while the other is a bit strange, that is, to disperse the power of monsters to hit the city wall. The way it disperses its power is not just to disperse the power to the earth, but to all the buildings, people, and even all monsters hidden in the darkness in the city.
Doing so is equivalent to the fact that all objects in the entire city that exist in the space are under the impact on the outer wall. No matter how large the impact the outer wall encounters, as long as it does not exceed the upper limit of all objects in the entire city, the city wall will not be damaged.
For example, now, after the city wall is impacted, the impact force is scattered on everyone and objects in the city, which is equivalent to a piece of dust falling on it. It will not feel anything to ordinary people. Only people like Leo, who are particularly sensitive to all changes around, can detect a trace of abnormality and then infer the truth of the facts.
This is also one of the things that Leo was surprised, because he had never expected that he would become a part of the whole city without realizing it, as if the city of Odorene had some unique world law. As long as he entered this city, whether it was active or passive, whether it was a destroyer or a builder, he would become a part of the city's resistance to external shocks, just as he would become a part of a certain world after entering a certain world, and such things would not be controlled by his personal will.
However, this is not what surprised Leo the most. What surprised Leo the most was that the wizard magic circle that caused all this did not seem to have been engraved on it with a special method after the giant died, but instead seemed to be owned by the giant itself.
Although it is a misunderstanding that the black market, church and other people in the underground world regard him as the last tower wizard, if he insists on it, he can also deserve this title, because based on the various knowledge he has mastered, he is no less inferior to those tower wizards in the past. Through his research on various wizard towers built by tower wizards, he has also explored some rules for tower wizards to arrange Turing root magic arrays.
With the knowledge he has mastered, it is not difficult to find that the wizard formation in the giant's body has obvious layout characteristics of the Turing-root magic array of the tower wizard, but this wizard formation is not only traces of the tower wizard, but also the techniques of the Turing-root magic array are more sophisticated than the arrangement techniques he knows.
If divided according to the level of life form, this wizard magic array that integrates with the giant seems to have reached the advanced life form of a level nine psychic, while the wizard magic array of a tower wizard is only at most a level four psychic.
"Who was the tower wizard who participated in the construction of Odorene City back then?" Leo couldn't help but have such a question emerged in his mind.
Obviously, the wizard formation in the giant's body should be done by the tower wizard who participated in the construction of Odorene City. It can even be said that this tower wizard is the builder of Odorene City. This person's mastery of Turing roots has reached an incredible level. Such a tower wizard should be famous in the world, but in Leo's memory, no tower wizard can match the construction of Odorene City.
In Leo's memory, the tower wizard who built the Black Castle lighthouse should be the one who has the deepest master of the Turing root magic array among the tower wizards of all generations. However, compared with the Turing root magic array in Odorene City, the lighthouse built by the tower wizard is obviously nothing. With the knowledge Leo has mastered now, it is only a matter of time to analyze the Turing root magic array in the lighthouse, but he is not sure that he can analyze it.
At this time, the sound of fighting on the other side of the city wall began to weaken. It seemed that this round of monster impact had passed, and the city residents who were watching nervously closed the doors and windows again.
When some residents of the house near Leo's location were pulled back from the city wall, they also looked at the surrounding situation to a greater or lesser extent, and naturally they saw Leo standing on the street and the man lying at his feet.
However, none of these residents said anything, but silently closed the doors and windows again, as if they had seen nothing. However, judging from the light transmitted by the doors and windows, they were obviously very nervous at the moment. They should have regarded Leo as some unknown long-night monster, trying to increase the fire by putting more fuel into the brazier and fireplace to prevent the monsters outside from entering the house and at the same time alleviating the fear in their hearts.
Leo ignored the thoughts in the minds of the residents of his city. After the Turing root magic arrays under his feet calmed down and hid again in the giants who turned into the earth, he had no interest in continuing to stay here. He raised the man under his feet according to his previous thoughts, entered a pitch-black alley, and quickly moved towards the direction of the old quarry.
Although he was holding a person in his hand, Leo was still very fast, but in a moment he returned from the other end of the city to the outside of the quarry.
However, he did not enter the big pit immediately, but stood on the edge of the big pit and looked at the water collection pool at the bottom of the quarry.
One-third of the bottom of the quarry is a water collection pool. This water collection pool was originally a deeper quarry point, but it may have been dug up an underground river and the quarry point was all submerged.
When Leo moved the laboratory to the quarrying point next to the collecting pool, he checked the pool and also sneaked in to check the situation inside. He found that as described in the record, there was a hole connecting the underground river in a passage at this quarrying point, and there were no living things in the water.
However, Leo now saw a creature in the pool that looked like a big fish swimming in the water of the pool. The big fish was very large and occupied almost half of the area of the pool, comparable to a medium-sized sailboat. If it was placed in the sea, it should be called a sea monster.
However, after scanning through the mental network, Leo found that this huge-looking strange fish was actually not a fish at all, but a number of twisted insects with small mouths the size of countless fingers. These insects were entangled with each other, which formed the appearance of such a big fish.
