Chapter 637 Slime Hunting (Part )
"The rebirth of a part of Namichi's soul..."
The proprietress said with a hint of emotion, "Maybe it's because I have retained too many human memories and I don't dare to face them."
Hearing this, Zhou Qing immediately realized what the proprietress was talking about. He felt a little apologetic, slurped up this bowl of special "noodle soup", and asked the proprietress to arrange temporary accommodation for him.
I asked for three rooms.
"Why three?" the proprietress asked curiously.
"There is also a little blonde girl. She should be with a chubby pink mole now." Zhou Qing did not hide it.
Romantina?
The environment in the "brain hole" is pretty good. The bunny girl can live there, so Romantina can also use it as her living room.
That "Zhu Jiuyin" didn't seem to object to other people living there.
"A blonde girl? A pink mole? She's your companion." The lady boss talked about Riko. "I was wondering why a little girl would come to the fifth floor. It turns out she has a family with her."
Dugu Bo felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by this "Toad Lady" - why did he feel like an irresponsible parent?
"Well, actually, she is the guide we hired. After all, as an Abyss person, she has a relatively good understanding of the first seven floors." Zhou Qing explained.
"Then why hire a girl?" the proprietress asked curiously.
"Among the Abyss people, few dare to come below the third floor." Zhou Qing said, "Besides, the Sandersin on the fourth floor and the key required to reach the fifth floor have stopped many people."
"That's true."
The proprietress nodded slightly. "That guy Sandeyin has gone crazy. He also has the key to the fifth floor, Bai Di..."
At this point, the proprietress carefully looked at Zhou Qing and Dugu Bo, and asked with a little doubt, "You don't seem to have Bai Di?"
Dugu Bo asked back: "Can't we just put our white flute in our pocket?"
“Although most of the holders of the white flute like to hang it around their necks, it’s not for this reason… In the perception of our mutants, the white flute itself will emit a rather strange halo. Even if it is placed in a storage soul guide, it will resonate with the holder.”
The lady boss explained, "This kind of halo can make the holder's body stronger and stronger. This is also one of the fundamental reasons why the holder of the white flute can continue to explore downwards."
"I see--"
Zhou Qing understood that the function of this white flute was far more comprehensive than that of soul bones.
In addition to being unable to directly enhance one's own strength, it can not only strengthen the combat effectiveness of the alienated body, but also achieve a subtle strengthening effect by affecting the holder's aura. Even with reasonable use, it may be possible to control the laws of the body's soul power through the rhythm of airflow and sound waves.
However, perhaps the conditions for the production of Bai Di are too harsh, or the time is short, or it may be because the Abyss people who mastered the method of cultivating soul power went to a lower level and never came up, which resulted in the Abyss people not yet summarizing the specific method of cultivating through the circulation of soul power.
hum!
The ground suddenly shook, causing the entire hotel to sway slightly.
"The reborn body of part of Namichi's soul has attacked?" Zhou Qing was a little puzzled, but he saw the proprietress walking directly downstairs.
Zhou Qing and Dugu Bo looked at each other and immediately followed.
At this time, the proprietress was walking out of the restaurant with a kitchen knife in one hand and a spatula in the other.
On the street, the other mutants were also holding various weapons, as if they were preparing for battle.
"Did they really get in?"
Dugu Bo was surprised. "No, it should be because of that."
Zhou Qing's sight fell on the open space outside the street where the hotel was located, and a huge purple, sticky liquid object was suspended.
Around the monster, many villagers from Nami Village were holding spears and stabbing the irregular tentacles extending from the purple and sticky monster.
In addition, there are some mutants holding a kind of soul-guided gun that looks like bone. They insert a slender and sharp bone spear at the muzzle, rotate the turntable underneath to accumulate potential energy, and then pull the trigger underneath to convert the potential energy into kinetic energy, causing the bone spear to shoot towards the huge monster.
Pfft!
The spears and bone spears stabbed in, but could not hurt the purple monster at all. On the contrary, the monster's liquid seemed to be able to dissolve the bone spears and spears, converting them into nutrients needed for its growth.
"What is that?"
Dugu Bo has seen the bird-horses on the first level, the weeping corpse-birds on the second level, the special luminous insects on the third level, and the sea fish and sea beasts on the fourth level.
Although they all look quite strange, one can still vaguely see that there is a blood relationship between them and ordinary animals, plants, and soul beasts in the outside world.
But now this monster——
Similar to a block of agar that has not cooled down and solidified.
Although it is purple, it is transparent. There are no internal organs inside, only a white-gray oval bone-like object with five cylindrical objects on the top. The purple liquid seems to be flowing in and out of these five holes.
What's even more strange is that this thing has no wings, so how does it fly?
"That's a monster from outside the village: the Slime."
The proprietress, who was walking slowly with the main group, explained to the two people beside her, "The local villagers in the village cannot go out, so if they want to hunt, they must bring the prey into the village and then kill it to increase the total value of the entire village. However, some monsters will also actively break into the mutant's village in search of food."
"Slime?" Zhou Qing didn't expect that he could see this kind of Western fantasy worldview in Douluo Continent... Well, the worldview of the Douluo Continent series seems to really have a Western fantasy color, rather than the orthodox Eastern fantasy that respects strength.
Return to the present.
Seeing how leisurely the proprietress and the other mutants are, they seem to be accustomed to this kind of hunting, so there's no need to worry too much.
Um···
It is also possible that it is because their memories are incomplete and they live like zombies, and that is just their nature.
"In fact, in the language of Abyss Town, slime refers to muddy, sticky objects. That's how we named this monster." The proprietress said slowly, "Other than that, we know nothing else about it."
"What?"
Zhou Qing widened his eyes and looked at the proprietress in disbelief, hoping that she was joking.
On this fifth layer, although the history of Nami Village is not as long as that of other mutant villages, it is still nearly two hundred years old, right? How could we know so little about the monsters on this fifth layer?
"It's really not clear."
The lady boss said, "Through trade with other mutant villages, we also know most of the monster types on the fifth floor, but this slime is not one of them.
It should have come to the fifth floor from the sixth floor or the seventh floor through the underground water source... The water sources on each floor of the abyss ruins may be interconnected...
This is the third time it has attacked Nami Village."
