Chapter 219 Scouting and Rescuing People is the Protagonist
These are the Netero people sleeping at the bottom of the food pyramid. In each coffin lies a Netero who looks like a mummy.
As long as they don't come into contact with water, these Netero will continue to sleep like this. Maybe one day they will wake up by chance, or maybe they will die due to the passage of a long time.
But at this moment, all the Netero here have only one fate, that is, to be used as research consumables.
"You go and open the coffin, and I'll harvest them one by one from the back. After all, if we want to keep the corpse intact, we can only extract the soul." Zombie Xia Yu said to Gourmet Xia Yu who was standing aside and looking at the coffin.
Hearing this, Gourmet Xia Yu nodded. Zombie Xia Yu was not only a chef, but also a necromancer. Compared to playing with souls, the other party was indeed more suitable than him. Although he could also extract souls, the other party was definitely more skilled.
As the first coffin was opened, Netero, who was sleeping inside, was revealed. He was a humanoid mummy like a bird-headed man.
But upon closer inspection, it can be found that these mummies still retain the minimum signs of life. Because they have no contact with any water source, opening the coffin will not stimulate them to wake up.
Zombie Xia Yu looked at Netero, who looked like a mummy in the coffin, reached out and pressed its head, then directly pulled out its soul.
As the soul violently left the body, the only remaining trace of life disappeared.
Because the body fell into dry sleep, the soul that was extracted was also very weak. Xia Yu directly crushed this little soul zombie into the purest soul energy and then absorbed it.
As for Netero's body, which was dead and could be considered an object, Zombie Xia Yu casually gave it to the two Frankensteins in the biochemical world.
I don’t know if those two Frankensteins can use Netero’s corpse cells to clone a new Netero.
However, even though Zombie Xia Yu was not well versed in biological knowledge such as cloning, he could imagine that it might not be possible to clone.
After all, Netero is not a normal life, but the embodiment of the appetite of gourmet cells. It is unknown whether the cells that make up his body can be cloned.
In the following time, the two Xia Yu quickly collected Netero's body.
One person opened the coffin, and the other person drew out the soul, crushed it, and then sent the body out. In a short while, all the rows of coffins were opened, and all the Netero inside were sent away.
"Huh, that's about it now." Xia Yu, the gourmet, said casually as he looked at the rows of empty coffins.
"That's about it. The number of Neteros is quite small, so even though the food pyramid is so large, there are actually only a few Neteros sleeping. There may be a few scattered around in other places, but this is the most."
After finishing speaking, Zombie Xia Yu suddenly looked towards the lower left corner: "It's our turn to go down and rescue people. Xiaosong is about to meet the biggest monster here, who is also the carrier of mellow cola, the Salamandra Sphinx."
…
At the same time, at the bottom of the food pyramid.
In a mysterious corridor, simple ancient murals were carved on the walls on both sides, showing the interactions between Netero and various monsters .
At the very front of this mural corridor, there is a rectangular platform carved out of a solid stone, on the platform lies an extremely old book.
“What is this?”
Xiaosong, who accidentally fell to the bottom floor, noticed the books on the platform at first glance. He accidentally caused the floor to collapse, so he fell to the bottom floor, and groundwater also seeped into the interior of the pyramid.
He didn't know if it was because of good luck, but he was not hurt. Instead, he found an ancient book at the end of the corridor.
The moment he saw the book, Xiaosong seemed to be called by the book. He couldn't help but walk forward and came to the front of the book.
But at this moment, a slender shadow came silently behind him while he was reading.
then--
"clang!!"
A skinny Netero, awakened by groundwater seeping into the coffin, suddenly pecked at Komatsu with its wrinkled beak, but the attack was bounced off by a transparent wall of sound.
This is the "Armor of Sound" that Zebra put on Komatsu. It uses sound to form a layer of sound wall on the body surface. It was the supersonic armor that Zebra put on him when he lost his last bit of physical strength.
Xiaosong was suddenly attacked and was so frightened that he covered his head and crouched down to defend himself. However, because of the supersonic armor, he was not hurt.
But Netero was not polite. After sensing a thin layer of protection, he pecked at the armor madly again. Under the crazy pecking that left afterimages, the armor was thinning at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Upon realizing this, Komatsu immediately used all four limbs to crawl towards the nearby corner, but who would have thought that a huge monster appeared at the next corner.
There was a monster in front and another one behind. Xiaosong was attacked from both sides and screamed in fear.
But good luck always comes. When the skinny Netero saw the huge monster, he immediately gave up the skinny little Komatsu and instead treated the monster as his prey.
While Netero was gnawing at the giant monster, Xiaosong hurriedly turned around and ran away, but for some reason he glanced at the book on the platform. Somehow, he felt that the book was very important and he must take it away.
Without any hesitation, Xiaosong immediately turned around and ran to the platform. After picking up the book, he fled towards another exit.
At the same time, Alu and Zebula were together.
Because there were a large number of monsters in the pyramid, the two of them hunted while moving towards the lower level, and soon, both of them had replenished their physical strength.
Zebra, who had lost his voice due to overuse of his throat, grinned grimly as he felt his voice return.
The next moment, Zebra directly opened the sonic map, wanting to check Komatsu's current condition.
Before his voice became completely hoarse, he transformed his last sound into supersonic armor and put it on Xiaosong. Now he could only pray that the sound armor on the other party had not disappeared.
As the sonic map unfolded, everything inside the food pyramid took shape in his mind, but the next second, his expression suddenly changed.
"Don't go there, kid!"
Zebra's warning was still a step too late. Komatsu, who was running away like a headless fly, encountered a huge monster at another corner.
It was a monster that looked like a lion, with fine and curly mane, but its body was covered with scales, it had a pair of white wings on its back, and its tail was like a poisonous snake.
The appearance of this monster is like the legendary Chimera, but its real name is Salaman Sphinx, and it is the strongest monster in this food pyramid.
Realizing that Xiaosong had encountered the monster, Zebra immediately condensed sound waves, trying to scare away the huge monster with intimidation, but the condensed sound waves were directly offset by the Sphinx's roar.
Feeling that his sound waves were canceled out, Zebra snorted in dissatisfaction. Just as he was about to take back the sonic map and destroy the floor to take a shortcut to reach Komatsu's location, he was suddenly stunned.
In his sonic map, the two people who had always had a strong presence suddenly broke through the wall and rescued Xiaosong who was in distress, and by the way, they faced the huge monster.
Sensing the actions of the two men, Zebra smiled grimly and said, "Alu, we are too complacent. We actually need others to help us save that little brat."
"What do you mean, Xiaosong is in danger? Someone else came to rescue us? Was it those two people?"
In response to Alu's question, Zebula just showed a hideous smile and took a deep breath.
"Supersonic rocket launcher!!!"
In an instant, the surrounding area began to shake, and the violent sound waves caused the walls and floors to collapse layer by layer, as if a severe earthquake had occurred.
The damaged floor collapsed directly downwards, and A Lu and the other man fell to the bottom floor.
…
A few minutes ago.
Komatsu, who had been running away from the withered monster non-stop, was resting against the wall, panting.
Now the supersonic armor on his body has become so thin that it is almost invisible. If he is attacked again, the armor will probably disappear here.
In order not to die here, Xiaosong could only try his best to escape and wait for Alu and the others to find him.
Because of Zebula's sound ability, Xiaosong had no doubt that Alu and the others would not be able to find him. All he could do now was hide and wait for rescue.
In order to prevent the skinny monster from catching up again, Xiaosong took a deep breath and continued to run towards the corner ahead.
But the next moment.
"Don't go there, kid!"
Zebra's voice suddenly rang in his ears, but it was too late, he had already rushed out.
“Eh…”
Seeing the huge monster in front of him, Xiaosong was stunned and let out a light exclamation. Then he reacted and immediately his eyes bulged out and he screamed.
“Woooa ...
Coincidentally, at this moment, Zebra's sonic threat came, trying to scare the monster away in order to achieve the purpose of rescue.
But the monster felt the threat of the sound waves in front of it and was not afraid at all. Instead, it opened its bloody mouth.
“Gahhhh!!!”
The huge roar directly offset Zebra's intimidation, and then the monster looked at Xiaosong who was sitting on the ground in fear.
"Don't eat me , I'm not tasty..."
Just as Xiaosong was whispering cautiously, there was a sound of cracking from the wall next to him.
then--
Boom boom boom!!!
With the sound of layers of walls shattering, a figure suddenly flew out and kicked the Sphinx against the wall.
"Are you okay?"
The zombie Xia Yu, who was a little slower, came to Xiaosong and asked him.
Xiao Song looked around in a daze. When he saw the zombie Xia Yu clearly, his face turned pale and he screamed, "Ahhh—a red-eyed purple monster! It's called the red-purple monster for short!"
"What the hell is this red and purple monster?!"
Zombie Xia Yu grabbed Xiao Song who was about to escape and said viciously: "We saved you! Is this how you treat your savior? Besides, my color is not purple, it's lavender!!"
"Saved me?"
Xiaosong then realized that the Sphinx that had been roaring at him was no longer in front of him.
