Chapter 11 Exploring Gruz, a windfall
This platform is obviously more lively. There are more small crawlers, Tiktik, and Gruz on the road, and there are even more cunning and insidious Goms. Once a crawler or flying insect passes by the raised mound,
He would be bitten by the Gom that suddenly jumped out, and then be pulled into the deep pit.
Lu Zhengkang felt extremely disgusted with Gorm. These greedy guys seemed to never have enough to eat and kept eating. Fortunately, the bugs multiplied quickly, otherwise they would have been eaten up long ago.
Carefully avoiding these goms, Lu Zhengkang continued to advance, and there were several insect bodies wandering on the road. These were the dead, and they were once intelligent insects. Now their bodies were resurrected by mysterious power, but their consciousness was empty.
Different insect bodies have different behavior patterns after being resurrected. Although they usually look dejected, when they encounter Lu Zhengkang, they become animated and want to kill Lu Zhengkang with collision, horns, and trampling. Unfortunately, they are too stiff.
, was easily killed by Lu Zhengkang.
After they are killed, they also ooze orange blood, which has a disgusting smell. Compared to the blood of reptiles like Gruz, although the color is similar, it is really not suitable for consumption.
As he walked, the space around the platform continued to shrink, seeming to be getting closer to the edge of the cave. Finally, he reached a stone wall with a spacious passage on the wall that connected to the next cave.
This passage seems to have been designed like a checkpoint. It has steps and is very flat. What is inside the passage cannot be peeked into. You can only see it clearly by walking up the steps.
Lu Zhengkang had a feeling in his heart that there should be a Mother of Gruz inside. This is the design in the game.
Although he was not afraid of Mother Gruz, he did not dare to be careless.
If according to the settings in the game, the back door of the passage where he is now is locked, and it will only be opened after defeating the Mother of Gruz, but now Lu Zhengkang looks from a distance and sees that the fence door has not fallen down.
He cautiously climbed up the steps and looked into the level, only to see a thick piece of skin on the ground and several Gruz corpses scattered everywhere.
That thick hide belonged to Mother Gruz, and she was killed!
Lu Zhengkang was surprised and jumped into the level. This level was not big, but because it was empty, it looked very spacious. There was an abstract White King sculpture on the wall and two light fly lamps on the top.
The thick skin of the dead Mother of Gruz was spread flat on the ground, and there was also a huge head, which looked like a carpet, but its pale, wrinkled pattern looked very distorted under the light, and it would never be seen.
The owner of the carpet was satisfied. This was more like an evil and terrifying graffiti. Mother Gruz's head was tilted to the side, with a huge, deep wound on her forehead. Lu Zhengkang could see this.
The wound was the result of repeated blows from the bone nail, which was the only fatal injury.
As for why its body turned into a puddle, it is probably the result of the Gruz in its body breaking out. Those bugs that emerged from the mother's womb are now dead around its mother's body, and the fatal wounds are still sharp, revealing
The warrior was fierce and precise with his swordsmanship.
Lu Zhengkang gently touches these beautiful wounds with his hands. It is simply an art. This kind of swordsmanship is like an industrial machine. It is simple and unsophisticated, but it can be meaningful. Every swordsman can realize the long hard training and excellent talent behind it.
.
After sighing with emotion, Lu Zhengkang came up with a guess as to why Gruz was so active. He was probably busy preparing for the birth of the new Gruz mother.
The air is indeed filled with Gruz's restless pheromones, but the information in it is too mixed, more like unconscious murmurs, "Work hard, eat, eat, grow up..."
The commission from Shangchong has a rough result. The cause of the incident should be that the unknown warrior killed the Mother of Gruz who was entrenched here, and then the Gruz began to fight for the new Mother of Gruz.
was born and busy.
So there is still a lack of conclusive proof.
Lu Zhengkang walked through the checkpoint and came to another cave, and then followed the busy Gruz to their hidden lair. This place is located in a remote area. There is a narrow hole in the wall. It is pitch dark inside, but you can still hear clearly.
The sound of heavy breathing and continuous chewing echoed deep in the nest.
After thinking about it, Lu Zhengkang decided to venture deep into the Gruz lair to see with his own eyes whether a new Gruz mother was growing.
With his petite body, he didn't even have to lower his head to enter the cave. Lu Zhengkang held a light fly lantern in his hand and used bone nails to push aside the busy Grutz on the road. He soon came to a fork in the road and chose one to enter at will.
In reality, there are not as many traps as there are in the game, so Lu Zhengkang walked smoothly, but as he continued to go deeper, more and more artificial traces appeared around him, and it seemed that he had arrived at some lost ruins.
What disappoints Lu Zhengkang is that this passage does not go deep into the ruins, but just passes by. The ruins themselves have collapsed and are buried under earth and rocks, so there is no value for exploration.
Following the sound of rumbling breathing that echoed in the passage, he went deep. Fortunately, this road was accessible. Lu Zhengkang came to a spacious cave, which was like a sunken basin. At the bottom lay an obviously sized animal.
Gruz, who is bigger than his companions, has a lot of food piled around him, and the Gruz are still bringing food here in a steady stream. This big Gruz is eating like crazy.
Lu Zhengkang had no intention of hunting these bugs. He could never kill them to extinction, and the vitality of the bugs would allow them to multiply endlessly.
Looking at the opposite side of the cave, there is a relatively huge passage, which should be the passage for the mother of Gruz to enter and exit. It's really strange. Obviously one can live here, why does the mother of Gruz run to that level? Could it be?
Do you want to protect something? Or are you being passed down by a mission?
There was enough light in the cave, but there was light leaking in from the top, so Lu Zhengkang put away the lantern, then walked to the other end of the cave close to the edge, walked inside, and found a side room, which should be made by some kind of intelligent insect.
Yes, it also has a mechanism door. The mechanism is next to the door. It is a metal gate. After pulling it down, the door to the side room opens and you can enter with a lantern. This place has a lot of history and it has probably never been repaired. The light in the overhead light bulb
All the light flies were completely dead.
There was an open box in the center of the room. Lu Zhengkang went over to take a look and saw a pile of dead eggs and a talisman shaped like a Grutz.
At this time, there was a talisman that had never appeared in the game. In surprise, Lu Zhengkang took it out and looked at the back. There were two sockets. It seemed that two talisman slots were needed to equip it.
