Struggle in the Steam Age

　　 Various kinds of moss and lichen grow on the stones on the ground. Stepping on the soft moss, Lawrence's heart grows as he looks at the buildings that are getting closer and closer to him. Because the weird places in the movie are often the nests of certain monsters, the team where the protagonist is located always refuses to listen to people’s advice when they find such places and they break in, and then encounter all kinds of weird monsters with heavy casualties. At last, only one man and one woman ran out. And now what he is doing is like the kind of protagonist who is dead.

　　The closer to the building, the more nervous Lawrence is. But when he walked to the entrance of the tower, there was still silence around him, and nothing strange appeared.

　　 "It seems that my luck is not that bad." Lawrence muttered a little to cheer himself up, and then dried the sweat on his coat and squeezed the handle of the gun.

After walking around the tower-like building, Lawrence discovered that the main body of the building was not built by humans, but a tower formed by hollowing out the huge stone pillar connecting the roof and the wall of the cave. Shaped building.

　　In fact, this is not a good choice, because this place is located near the coal mine, so the rock inside the mountain is relatively loose, and it is not suitable for excavating various accommodation spaces. If you want to say that there are any advantages to doing this, you can only say that it is less difficult to dig holes in this type of rock, and the progress of the project will be faster.

　　 But the consequences of doing this are obvious. For example, Lawrence discovered that the 1.5-meter-diameter hole near the first floor was blasted by an ordinary fireball technique. If it is normal granite or even a brick wall, the top of the pit will be as big as a washbasin.

　　 After completing the environmental inspection near the building, Lawrence dug in the 1.5-meter-diameter hole in the wall. This is like trying to avoid direct rushing in from the door during street fighting, because the door is the easiest place to set up various traps and set fires.

　　 After entering the building, everything that came into his eyes confirmed what he had just guessed: the walls are thick and the space inside the room is irregular. The most important thing is that the walls everywhere in the room can be seen by naked eyes that the ground is uneven, the thickness of the walls varies, and there are traces of potholes everywhere.

　　 These all show that the people who built this place did not intend to live here for a long time, so just like a wild beast, just dig a hole in this big pillar and make a home.

　　 The first floor of the building seems to be just an ordinary living room. Although there are traces of various damage caused by casting on the walls and the ground, Lawrence did not find any traps in this place after a round of inspection.

"It seems that normal people don't like to put traps in their own living room. Of course, it may also be that the owner of the room dare not put traps in this place." Thinking of this, Lawrence patted a spot that was obviously fireball. After hitting the blackened wall, he saw a large pile of gravel that had been fried by the explosion crashing and falling to the ground after he slapped him.

　　 "Has the stones in the building been destroyed to such an extent?" When the sand fell, Lawrence was shocked to hide behind him, and then looked around at the dense traces on the surrounding walls. At the same time, I told myself in my heart that after a while, I should try my best to drag out the fight, otherwise, if this place collapses, I might be dead.

　　 After a simple turn, Lawrence came to a stair-like **** with empty hands. I don't know if it is because this place is rudimentary or the result of a group of people who came before. Except for some ragged parts whose shapes can only be barely seen, Lawrence found nothing valuable in the living room on the first floor.

　　 But this does not mean that he has found nothing. For example, he found a small piece of dusty, palm-sized yellow and brittle old newspaper in a pile of broken pieces of broken furniture. Although the newspaper is only a fragment, Lawrence found a date more than 60 years ago.

　　 "So this place has been abandoned for more than 60 years?" Lawrence thought after dropping that piece of newspaper, and then he released [Detection Magic] again.

Unsurprisingly, the magic detected in the distance just now reacted on the top of his head, and after approaching the reconnaissance this time, he found that the magical aura that he saw from a distance was actually a lot of magic gathered together. Formed by aura, there are also a few unexpectedly strong magical auras.

　　 "It looks like there are some monsters upstairs." When the scouting magic was released, Lawrence discovered that some of the magic auras were constantly changing positions. So he took out a large firework with the thickness of a wrist from the space bag and came to the stairs. After some calculations in his heart, he stretched out his right hand to hold the wooden pole at the tail of the firework so that it aimed at a section of the wall at a special angle, and then lit the fuse with the match he carried.

　　 "呲——wow!" When the fuse burned to the end, the firework flew directly out of Lawrence's hand and hit the wall on the side of the stairs, and then bounced back upstairs as he calculated. Just after the fire from the tail of the fireworks disappeared at the corner of the corridor, Lawrence heard a strange movement from the building.

　　 Found that the situation was not right, Lawrence's first reaction was to retreat to the exit of the building. But when he just retreated to the big hole when he entered, the first monster had already appeared in front of him.

　　 "Squeak--" This is a piggy-sized mouse with a messy black-gray mane and two sharp fangs at the corners of its mouth. The most eye-catching thing is that it has many white bone spurs at various joints that penetrated under the skin, adding a bit of hideous feeling.

　　 "Demonized Berserker!" Lawrence recognized the species of the monster in front of him immediately, so he decisively turned over the big hole in the wall and retreated when the opponent stared at him with blood-red eyes. Because the "Monster Handbook" once said that this dangerous supernatural creature is a social animal, and fighting this type of social animal in a small space is definitely not a wise move.

　　 Lawrence removed the rifle from his back and filled it with a deer bullet when he exited the building. The berserk rat is a gregarious omnivorous animal, and its vitality is no different from a piglet of the same size. To say that the only thing that can be threatening is that their teeth carry a large number of germs, which can easily make people infected with various messy diseases.

　　 After they are demonized, their vitality and defense power will not increase but decrease ~www.wuxiahere.com~ but their attack and power and attack speed will be greatly increased. The filthy magic power also makes them have magic power that is difficult to get rid of whether it is in the process of biting or clawing. In addition, the souls contaminated by the magic of the lower space have completely lost the inherent characteristics of creatures, and will not be afraid of any dangerous and frenzied attacks on all creatures near them.

　　Sure enough, just after Lawrence exited seven or eight meters, the group of enchanted berserker rats also surged out of the hole in the building. Fortunately, because their vitality was weakened due to demonization, three demonized berserker rats fell to the ground with just one deer bullet.

But these rats sprint very fast, even if Lawrence retreated and fired, he only had time to fire two shots with a rifle. Then he had to drop his rifle and draw two pistols to give a name to the mouse one or two meters away. .

　　 Fortunately, with his hard work, the number of rats visible to the naked eye is rapidly decreasing. It's just that in such a rush, what he didn't notice was that when the killed mice fell on the ground, the green blood on their bodies flowed down the ground to the building.

At the end of the shot, all the bullets in the two pistols were used up, and they were pressing harder. The enchanted berserkers who followed after him did not give Lawrence time to reload the bullets. In this case, he could only use magic to work hard. resistance. Fortunately, because of his success, few surviving mice remained.

　　 [Acid splashing], with a ball of acid sticking to the face of a violent rat, the battle is finally over. Lawrence looked at the dead rat corpse on the ground and shook his head, then went to pick up the guns that had been thrown on the ground in an emergency. But when he just leaned down and picked up the two pistols, there was a scream from the top of the tower.
