Chapter 149 146. Piggy's New Job
Twisted, unstable edges.
Two areas separated by a wall but with completely different styles.
No matter how you look at it, this thing in front of you is a crack.
And it is actually the size of a manhole cover, which is much larger than the rift where the six-layer two-color slime is located, which is at most the size of a fist.
The poor caveman was totally unaware of the crack and fell right into it. I'm afraid he must have been in great danger.
Lin Jun’s plan to track down the cavemen’s hometown naturally failed. He could only wait and see if he could meet them again in the future.
But the key is still this crack!
Since no cracks were found on the seventh floor, Lin Jun thought that the place where the two-colored slime was sitting was the only gap in the dungeon.
I never expected to encounter a bigger crack so easily in the deep area.
Lin Jun didn't think it was a coincidence. He just happened to run into the only crack in the deep area.
There is a high probability that there are already a large number of cracks in the deep area...
Although I still haven't figured out why there are no cracks in the seventh layer between the sixth layer and the deep area, it is more important to study the cracks in front of us first.
There is no curse on the other side, maybe we can explore it.
Naturally, the relatively valuable elite Puji cannot be sacrificed.
Fortunately, this place is directly connected to the cave that has just been occupied. Soon, a temporarily generated bat fluttered over.
He controlled Puji to jump in and used [Sonic Detection] at the same time.
Then--
Nothing...
The sound waves emitted to the surroundings did not hit anything and bounced back.
And after the bat jumped in, it kept moving away from the crack at a constant speed.
Puji tried to flap his wings and fly back, but it was no use.
In the perception of [Follower Control], this unlucky Puji is getting farther and farther away... farther and farther.
Then at some point, without any warning, we suddenly lost contact.
Lin Jun couldn't quite understand what was going on.
Not to mention the weird environment on the opposite side, his own [Follower Control] can control the scout Puji seamlessly from a long distance. Lin Jun even suspects that this skill has no distance limit.
How far has this bat fallen into the water? It has already lost contact?
It didn't look like it was attacked by anything, and the [sonic wave detection] didn't detect anything.
There was neither terrain nor living creatures, and the other side seemed empty.
Could it be a serious space rift leading to nothingness?
Just like the empty area outside the world in the stories of previous lives?
Soon, several more cannon fodder Pujis were pulled over. They entangled themselves with their mycelium tentacles, one after another, with one end fixed on the stone and the other end jumping into the crack again.
The moment you jump in, the pulling force of gravity disappears.
If I had to describe the feeling, it would be like being in space.
Lin Jun never expected that after traveling to a different world, he could actually experience an adventure of weightlessness in space... Got to say, it was quite fun!
After playing enough, Lin Jun threw a few Pujis out in different directions one by one.
Sooner or later, the Pujis all suddenly lost contact at some point.
It seems that the first situation was not an accident.
The other side should be a void area that is not suitable for survival.
It's very strange, but it doesn't feel dangerous. At least there's no need to worry about any monsters or curses emerging from this rift.
But that's just the rift that isn't dangerous.
Not long after, another batch of bat Puji was produced, purely for exploration.
The bats flew into more than ten huge passages connected to the cave. After a carpet search, they found the second crack!
But this crack is very small, like a pinhole.
If it weren't for the unique edge distortion effect, Lin Jun would have found it difficult to detect.
This crack was very unstable. Lin Jun tried to extend some mycelium to take a look, but it was all twisted to pieces by the unstable space.
In the end, I could only mark it as one of the key observation points.
However, this also proves that the deep area is probably already riddled with holes.
It was clearly fine before I left, it broke down so quickly.
Now that I think about it, did that group of Thousand-axe Mayflies really come from the round of demonic tide?
Could it be that there is some huge crack connecting the mayflies' hometown, allowing them to migrate here continuously?
Anyway, from time to time, a few mayflies would fly over tentatively at the fork in the road above, and then be shot down by Puji who was guarding the defense line there.
Considering the size of the giant insect, if that were the case, how big would the crack be...
The situation in the deep area was not optimistic. Lin Jun decisively arranged most of the Puji capacity in the deep area, preparing to start the long-awaited cave expedition.
Since the Yellow Book claims that he does not know the exact location of the core of the dungeon, he only knows that it is at the deepest part.
Therefore, Lin Jun could only simply and crudely set the goal to extend downwards.
After thinking about it, Lin Jun took down the vampire Louisa.
…
"here it is?"
Louisa, who was suddenly brought here from the mine, seemed very uneasy.
Nothing good has happened to her since she entered this purple crystal underground city...
"Piggy, you have a new job!"
“…”
"Why, you don't want to eat something fresh?"
Fresh!?
Louisa's eyes widened instantly.
She had indeed not drunk fresh blood for a long time. To be precise, she had been drinking lifeless blood ever since she was captured and was barely surviving.
After all, there were no living creatures on the fifth floor that could drink her blood, and Lin Jun was unwilling to let her go to the sixth floor to hunt in the wild. After all, it would be bad if she ran into adventurers.
"Really? Really?" Louisa confirmed carefully.
"How about I take you back? You seem to like mining anyway."
"No, no, no, boss, you have the final say! I'm a piglet and I want to eat fresh food!" Louisa said she cherished this opportunity very much!
Seeing this, Lin Jun also assigned her a task - to cooperate with the expedition team to expand the territory.
After all, Louisa is a diamond-level vampire viscount, so it is very appropriate for her to eat some to replenish her combat power.
You can't really keep this girl just to let her dig a few mines, right?
Of course, there are restrictions. Lin Jun stipulated that she cannot leave the range of the fungal mat. If she violates this, she will naturally become a puppet.
Louisa nodded her head in agreement to this arrangement, fearing that Lin Jun would change his mind.
Lin Jun did not treat her unfairly. She directly handed the big turtle, which was still curled up in its shell and trying to compete with Lin Jun in patience, to Louisa.
The shell of this turtle can actually be blown open by a fat man, but Lin Jun thinks that is a waste, so it is better to give it to the vampire. If Louisa can't eat it, then it will be a waste.
Fortunately, Louisa is not useless.
The pale palm was placed on the turtle shell. After a while, the blood in the turtle's body was drawn out by Louisa, and the blood mist gathered from the cracks in the shell into Louisa's hand.
By the time Louisa finished her action, the turtle's tightly closed shell had loosened, revealing the turtle's corpse that had shriveled up due to blood loss.
Louisa couldn't wait to drink the monster's blood that she had previously looked down upon, even licking up the last bit at the corner of her mouth, and then she whimpered on the spot...
