Magic Item Master

Chapter 78 The Change of the Cave
At this time, Gu Chen re-entered the cave where Gu Xinshan was discovered.

But this time he prepared more thoroughly, not only brought two oxygen cylinders, but also various tools.

He didn't want to attract the attention of the creatures in the cave, so he took every step very carefully.

Although he brought a scorching ring-headed broadsword, the movement of the ring-headed broadsword would be very loud, so he only held a dagger in his hand to prevent alienated snakes, insects, rats and ants.

There are many forks in the cave, extending in all directions like a huge maze.

Although Gu Chen came in to explore once, he still lost his way very quickly, so he could only move forward based on his feeling.

In his memory, the passage to the pool was downhill, so he tried his best to choose the downward passage.After walking for about 10 minutes, he suddenly smelled a smell like a rotting corpse.

This smell made him suddenly alert, and he unconsciously slowed down and walked forward slowly.

A dead end lies ahead.

A lizard the size of an adult alligator is resting at the end of the passage with its body curled up. There are corpses of various creatures around its body, exuding a disgusting stench.

Gu Chen backed away calmly, he didn't want to provoke the lizard.

But at this moment, the lizard's tongue spit out like a snake's letter, and then it opened its eyes and looked in Gu Chen's direction.

Gu Chen's eyes froze, and he instantly entered a combat state, instinctively clenching the dagger tightly.

When the lizard's eyes locked on him, he realized that he was the lizard's prey.At this time, running away is the most stupid choice. The cave is the hunting place for the lizard, which can be said to be its home field.

There is only one result of running away, and that is death!

The lizard quickly got up from the ground, opened its mouth slightly, and dripped saliva from the gaps between its fangs, before falling to the ground and disappearing in an instant.

It is estimated that it did not expect that there would be food delivered to the door by itself.

Gu Chen held the dagger and chose to stop it with silence.

He knew very well that this lizard was definitely not an ordinary lizard, but an alienated lizard that appeared after the catastrophe, and it might not have any special abilities.

There are too many unknowns in this cave.

Whether it's Gu Xinshan or this alienated lizard, it shows that this place is far more complicated than what they understand.

The alienated lizard sticks out its tongue, as if observing Gu Chen.

It climbed up the cliff, walked on the wall like a gecko, swayed its tail from side to side, and approached Gu Chen little by little.

"This beast's saliva is weird!"

Gu Chen suddenly narrowed his eyes slightly, stepped back step by step, and secretly sighed in his heart that this alienated lizard was too cunning.

The saliva that the alienated lizard just dropped on the ground is actually a poisonous gas that can evaporate quickly.

The space in this passage is narrow, and almost no creature can escape from the poisonous gas attack.

Fortunately, Gu Chen discovered it early, he was just a little dizzy, at this time he put on the respirator and took several mouthfuls of oxygen, and he recovered immediately.

Even if he does not enter the state of berserk, his physical fitness is stronger than ordinary creatures.As long as this kind of toxin attack does not kill him instantly, he will soon be able to develop antibodies.

The alienated lizard approached step by step, with venom constantly flowing out of its mouth.

The first strike is stronger, and the later strike suffers!
Gu Chen backed away slowly, then suddenly stepped forward, and the dagger in his hand was thrown directly at the alienated lizard as a flying knife.

However, the alienated lizard was very fast, blinking to avoid the dagger's attack, exerting force with its limbs, and pounced on Gu Chen like a crocodile in the water attacking its prey.

So fast!

Gu Chen's pupils shrank, but there was no way to avoid it in the narrow passage.

Although he intends to pull out the ring-headed sword behind his back to resist, the problem is that the blade of the ring-headed sword is very hot, and the general way of backing the sword is not suitable for it.

The scabbard of the ring head sword is the main support point to fix the whole blade, so the scabbard of the ring head sword is a special scabbard, which looks like a rectangular sword box. The scabbard must be placed on the ground to hold the knife Pull it out, and it is too late for him to untie the rope that binds the scabbard.

Originally, he didn't want to use Beast Transformation so early, but now there is no better choice.

The moment the alienated lizard approached, his body changed rapidly, and terrifying murderous aura gushed out of his body like a volcanic eruption.

Alienated lizards are worthy of being alienated creatures that live in caves all year round.

It was keenly aware of the danger, and unexpectedly nailed its tail into the wall to stop the attack, and then quickly fled from Gu Chen's side.

In fact, most creatures are like this alienated lizard. They will never fight to the death when encountering a strong enemy, but quickly evacuate and escape.

Greed for life and fear of death, bullying the weak and fearing the strong are the ways of survival for many creatures in nature.

But how could Gu Chen let it escape, he turned around and grabbed a protruding stone on the cliff in an instant, broke the stone and threw it at the alienated lizard.

With a muffled sound, the alienated lizard was hit by a stone and fell to the ground motionless.

Gu Chen untied the rope, put the special scabbard for holding the ring-headed broadsword on the ground, and then pressed the mechanism on the scabbard.

Click!

The scabbard opened like a box, and he reached out to hold the handle of the ring-headed broadsword.

In fact, the ring-head sword is a bit small for him who is a beast, it feels like holding a short knife.

And for him who became taller, the cave suddenly became much smaller, and he had to lower his head from time to time when walking to avoid touching the stone pillars on the top.

He walked up to the Alienated Lizard, and the Alienated Lizard suddenly bent its body and opened its mouth to spit out a mouthful of venom.

The venom exudes an astonishing stench and is steaming.

Gu Chen immediately blocked the ring-headed broadsword in front of him, the venom fell on the broadsword and was evaporated immediately, but there was also an extra mark on the broadsword.

He didn't have time to feel sorry for the damage of the sword around his head, so he directly slashed at the alienated lizard, but the alienated lizard got up quickly and wanted to run away.

It's a pity that the current speed of Gu Chen is far faster than before the beast transformation.

The knife flashed past, and the alienated lizard was cut into two immediately, blood gushed out, and a bloody breath filled the entire cave in the blink of an eye.

"It smells weird!"

Gu Chen moved his nose, immediately turned around and grabbed the scabbard, and quickly left along the passage.

As soon as he rushed out of the passage, he saw a large number of snakes, insects, rats and ants rushing frantically from other passages.

These snake insects, rat ants alone are not strong, the problem is that there are hundreds of them, even he has to stay away.

He quickly punched the wall several times, dented the cliff, immediately turned around and retreated into the depression, and placed the ring-headed sword and scabbard in front of his body.

Countless snakes, insects, rats and ants rushed over like a torrent.

However, they didn't seem to notice Gu Chen, and they all quickly entered the passage where the alienated lizard was.

After confirming safety, Gu Chen walked out of the depression, looked at the passage where the alienated lizard was, and couldn't help but think to himself: "It seems that this cave has undergone many changes in half a year, and more creatures have mutated!"

He also killed a snake when he was exploring the cave, but it was not that exaggerated.

Obviously, in the past six months, the creatures in the cave have also undergone great changes, especially the number of alienated creatures has increased significantly.

He just glanced at it and determined that at least [-]% of the snakes, insects, rats and ants were alienated creatures, and some were ordinary insects chased away by alienated creatures.

At this time, a snake suddenly emerged from the passage, looking at him with diamond-shaped eyes.

"court death!"

The big knife was cut out in an instant, and the snake was cut in half before it could react, and there was a smell of roasting meat.

Gu Chen frowned, and immediately chose a passage to leave.

He knew that if he didn't leave, more alienated creatures would appear next.

Not long after he left, he stopped again, and the corner of the passage ahead was emitting white fluorescent light.There are still shadows swaying in the light. Looking at the shape of the shadows, he can deduce that the creatures at the corner are not easy to mess with.

It was a huge spider, probably using the phototaxis of creatures to attract prey.

Gu Chen backed away slowly. Fortunately, he was not discovered by the alienated spider this time, thus avoiding possible battles.

What he fears most when he enters the cave is encountering alienated creatures and Gu Xinshan. His mission is to retrieve the defense-breaking dagger, not to fight alienated creatures and Gu Xinshan.

He will try his best to avoid battles that can be avoided.

He exited the passage with alienated spiders, and chose another passage to advance.

Probably because all the snakes, insects, rats and ants flocked to the passage where the alienated lizard was. This passage was so clean that not even a single reptile could be found.

At this time, he took out the information card to check the situation outside.

It has been a long time since he entered the cave and groped all the way, so he was a little worried about the situation outside.

"What are you looking at?"

Suddenly, a faint voice sounded.

Gu Chen wanted to attack almost subconsciously, but when he saw the target making the sound, he stopped immediately.

I saw Gu Xinshan hanging upside down on the passage, looking at the information card in his hand, his face still expressionless.

"What are you looking at?"

Gu Xinshan landed slowly, then walked to Gu Chen's side and looked at the information card curiously.

"This is the information card, something that every resident has."

Gu Chen took a deep breath, and then replied in a flat tone.

In fact, he would be very depressed. He was really afraid of something. The last thing he wanted to see was Gu Xinshan, but Gu Xinshan appeared in front of him like this.

At this time, Gu Xinshan was hanging on his arm on tiptoe, looking at the text in the information card, and asked: "What are these?"

"Words, just like what you say, can be expressed with these words, so there is no need to speak." Gu Chen replied.

Gu Xinshan turned his head to look at Gu Chen, and said, "Why don't you speak, you don't speak if you have a mouth, why do you need a mouth?"

"Before answering your question, can you take me to the water pool where we met?" Gu Chen pondered for a moment, and offered a condition.

At the beginning, he completely entered that pool by mistake, but now he was asked to find that deep pool again, his eyes were completely darkened.

Although he didn't want to see Gu Xinshan, but since he didn't want to see him, he could only do his best to turn the bad into a good thing.

"No." Gu Xinshan refused without thinking.

Gu Chen thought it was because he didn't answer her question, so he said, "Then I'll answer your question now, and you can take me there again, is that okay?"

"No, there's a big toad over there, I can't beat it." Gu Xinshan replied.

Gu Chen was startled for a moment, this is the worst of the worst.

He had thought that the water pool would be occupied by some powerful alienated creatures. After all, it was a rare water source in the cave, and all creatures that needed to drink water would appear near the water pool.

There is a natural predation place.

As long as you occupy the water pool, it is equivalent to opening your mouth and waiting for the food to come to you.

In such a place, it is strange that there are no monsters entrenched.

Gu Chen was a little helpless at this moment.

He had to go to the water pool to take out the defense-breaking dagger, which was a magical item necessary to kill Jin Shunli.

So even though he knew there were tigers on the mountain, he still wanted to go to the mountain.

But how can he persuade Gu Xinshan to take him there?
"Gu Xinshan, if you help me, I'll take you out to play, okay?" Gu Chen looked at Gu Xinshan, thought for a while and said.

He could see that Gu Xinshan was very curious about the outside world and had a huge thirst for knowledge about all novel things.

Although Gu Xinshan is dangerous.

But from her not attacking him this time, it can be seen that she may not attack humans, so you can try to take her out.
