I'm in Warhammer, I just want to grow mushrooms

Chapter 84: Bone Drinking Treasure House

Chapter 84: Bone Drinking Treasure House
Tarenso died.

Li Nuo knew that this fucked up world of Warhammer was full of death, and he was mentally prepared for it, but the death of his companions still made him lose his mind.

Tarenzo is a bit naughty and sometimes his words are irrelevant, but he is very reliable in doing things.

Overall, Li Nuo had a good impression of him.

But he just turned into a cold and stiff corpse, and the jokes that came out of his mouth became echoes of the past.

Will I be like this in the future?
He was dying in a sudden attack, surrounded by his good friends.

They could do nothing about the injuries.

Unable to save himself, he could only face death in fear.

At this moment, Li Nuo seemed to understand why people in 40k generally believed in the God-Emperor.

When death comes knocking at the door, people always have to shout something to give themselves courage, and "God's protection" is undoubtedly the most appropriate slogan.

"Hiss, hoo——"

Li Nuo let out a breath and was not confused by the death of his companion.

Forget about the “Divine Emperor’s protection” or something like that.

The big golden guy has worked very hard selling hooks.

The three men put Tarenso's body into a body bag, hid it in a secret place, and prepared to take it out when they returned.

Wick and Mona wanted to comfort Li Nuo, but they found that he had adjusted himself and did not show any loss or fear.

If emotions become an obstacle to action, one must decisively abandon them. This is Li Nuo's habit, and he has always done so.

Li Nuo quickly checked his equipment and said calmly:

"My sensors, communicator, psychic sniffer, camera module, sound pickup module, and holographic module are all broken, and the mirror shield is not responding. The laser rifle's focuser is normal, and the optical sight is also fine. What about you?"

The blood from Mona's mouth stopped flowing, and her expression became a little depressed:
"My situation is similar to yours. All the equipment for collecting environmental data is damaged, and the mirror shield is out of order. I have some internal bleeding in my head, but it's not a big problem. I can hold on."

Li Nuo cast a healing spell on Meng Na, "How is it? Is it effective?"

"It works. Thank you." Mona pursed her lips, clenched her hands, and her body was shaking.

Wick had not had any implants installed and, like Lino, was not injured.

He glanced left and right while holding the laser rifle, and a sigh came from under his helmet:
"Look at those armed retainers. Smoke is coming out of the back of their necks. That's where the locator is implanted. The locator also has a sensor component. The heavy metal elements produced by its melting will enter the retainers' blood vessels and kill them in the next few months."

Li Nuo frowned slightly and his eyes fell on the retainer not far away.

The man removed his helmet and neck guard and scratched at the wound on the back of his neck with a stained glove.

The more you scratch, the more itchy it becomes, and the more itchy it becomes, the more you scratch.

Gradually, the blood flowing from the wound turned yellow-green.

Li Nuo's heart trembled, and he lowered his voice:

"There are pathogenic strains in the air. We can't stay here. We have to get out quickly, otherwise we might die here."

Wick shook his head:
"I'm afraid those young nobles won't give up just like that. Especially Weissberg. He's never lost a battle before, so there's no way he'll swallow this humiliation."

Wick's speculation was confirmed.

After the male hunting baron regained his ability to move, he shouted and urged his armed retainers to fight the cultists below.

Fragmentation grenades, stun grenades, melta grenades, and cluster explosives were used one after another.

The explosive passed through the huge hole in the floor and fell onto the cultists more than ten meters below, blowing the enemy to the ground and leaving their limbs flying everywhere.

Weisberg picked up the rocket launcher with the Planetary Defense Force logo, aimed the mechanical sights at the sculpture, and pulled the trigger.

The rocket rushed forward with a tail flame, but was blocked by the psychic shield set up by the cultists, and exploded with bright sparks in mid-air.

Weisberg refused to give up. He threw away the rocket launcher, drew out the two chainsaw swords on his legs, jumped down, rushed into the enemy group and slashed them crazily.

The mirror shield device on him is authentic and not scrapped like the agent's replica mirror shield.

The bubble-like mirror barrier helped him block all the energy rays, and the solid bullets didn't even leave a mark when they hit the adamantium armor.

For a moment, Weisberg seemed to be possessed by the god of war.

He rushed through the enemy group but remained unscathed, while the enemies around him were chopped to pieces by his whirlwind-like swords.

After his armed retainers set up the zipline, they followed their master into the headquarters of the Reconciliation Cult.

The retainers engaged the enemy in close combat, completely forgetting about the guns in their hands.

The other hunting lords were not willing to be outdone, and they also led their retainers to join the battle in their own ways.

Osgus was the last of the nine hunting lords to go to the battlefield.

Before leaving, he gave the agents an order:
"The four agents who scouted the way for me earlier, you continue to be responsible for exploring the way. Enter the treasure house as soon as possible and find out the situation inside. The rest of you, follow me to clean up the cultists! Hurry! Action!"

Li Nuo and the other two looked at each other.

The agents who had previously paved the way for Osgus were exactly himself and others.

Tarenso had died, but Ogsger didn't care and still thought he still had four people on his side.

The fate of a deserter is as miserable as that of a traitor. Even with Tarenso's warning before his death, the three of them had no choice but to follow.

The 13 agents on the scene lined up and slid down, with Li Nuo, Wick and Mona at the end.

The three of them discussed it and decided that Wick would take the lead and lead the way.

After treatment, Mona's condition improved significantly. She was no longer listless and she slid down with nimble movements, grabbing the hook.

Li Nuo is the last one.

As they slid down, stray bullets and dazzling red lasers whizzed past them, and there were scenes of fierce fighting everywhere.

The eight hunting lords were invincible and continued to kill under the dual attack of cold weapons and hot weapons.

Especially the members of the Fugas family wearing the "Patriarch" type hunting lord weapons. Their four mechanical arms are all equipped with automatic weapons, and the mechanical backpacks on their backs can extend small mechanical arms to help reload weapons.

Four hunting lords of the Fugas family stood in the center of the field, back to back, unleashing a violent storm. With just a few seconds of volleys, they killed large swathes of enemies like cutting wheat.

Li Nuo even suspected that without the assistance of armed retainers, the eight hunting lords alone could wipe out all the enemies on the scene.

and many more!

8 hunting lords?
Shouldn't there be 9 people?
Li Nuo was stunned for a moment and confirmed that Tido was not at the scene.

The equipment of this female hunter has a nearly perfect stealth function.

She probably didn't like fighting, so she left the task of scoring points entirely to her retainers and found a place to hide.

Li Nuo muttered to himself, and suddenly his body shook and was hit by stray bullets and lasers.

Before he even landed, there were already more than a dozen scratches and scorch marks on his armor, which showed how intense the firefight was.

Wick rolled and shot, killing several cultists around the landing point, turned around and yelled, then ran towards the wall:

"Follow me! I saw from the air that the number of enemies is the least over there!"

Mona held the laser rifle tightly and ran as fast as she could.

Li Nuo did not dare to slack off. He waved his hands left and right in front of him, casting a brain freeze technique to freeze the enemies along the way. Meng Na took advantage of the situation and shot accurately.

The cooperation between Li Nuo and Meng Na made the road smooth. The group moved horizontally through the chaotic battle scene and soon arrived at the corner of the wall of the headquarters of the Mihe Cult.

There is a canal here that is about 1.5 meters deep and can serve as a temporary shelter.

The three of them jumped into the sewage and waded forward with their backs bent.

Occasionally, a few cultists would notice the situation in the canal, but would be quickly shot dead by the experienced Wick.

A grenade came from nowhere and was about to fall on the agent's head.

Mengna was quick-witted and raised her right hand, clenched it into a fist and threw it to the side. Under her control, the grenade fell into the crowd and exploded with a loud bang.

At this point, we don’t care if there are accidental injuries or not. The dead don’t care who blew them to death.

"We're here, follow me in!" Wick crawled out of the canal, dragging water droplets along with him, aiming directly at the half-open stone door.

Seeing that Wick was about to step into the two-meter-wide gap in the door, Mona shouted anxiously:
"Watch your step! There's a tripwire!"

"Damn it!" Wick looked down at the ground and cursed.

Three hair-thin trip ropes were placed across the crack in the door.

It was too late to brake, and Wick could only watch his feet step on the tripwire.

At this critical moment, the air around Wick compressed and expanded like a spring, and bounced him to the side with a bang.

This is Li Nuo's vibration technique!

Fortunately, he reacted in time and used vibration magic to drive the air to push Wick away, otherwise a tragedy would have occurred.

Wick bumped into the door, gasping for breath with lingering fear. Before he could say anything, a series of bullets fired from the door.

There are cultists in the Stone Hall!
Wick and Li Nuo launched a counterattack by sticking close to the door panel, and took away the enemy who popped out from the gap in the door with a round of salvos.

More enemies hid behind the door, swearing and shouting, trying to lure the agents outside into their trap.

Mona drew out her dagger and threw it into the stone hall, controlling the dagger remotely to cut the throat of the enemy behind the door.

After a short but fierce battle, twenty or thirty warm corpses appeared near the stone gate, and the bright red blood dyed the nearby floor tiles red.

Only then did Wick let out a long sigh of relief:

"Shit, I almost stepped on a trap just now. Mona, your psychic powers are becoming more and more proficient. Fortunately, you acted in time."

Mona squatted down to dismantle the trap, "It wasn't me who saved you. You were too heavy for me to control. It was Kang Wen who helped you."

Li Nuo complained, "That was my psychic power just now, Wick, you are too careless."

Wick smiled awkwardly, "Sorry, I didn't expect the cultists to be so insidious."

Mona dismantled the trap and looked inside the door. "Come in and close the door first."

The three of them stepped into the stone door, and Mona pulled the mechanical lever on the door frame.

The hydraulic transmission device installed on the door by the cultists began to work, and the stone door closed heavily and slowly.

The cultists outside the door noticed the movement coming from the direction of the stone gate and rushed over shouting obscenities.

Li Nuo threw the grenade at a low throw.

The grenade rolled along the ground and sneaked to the cultist's feet.

The cultists were stopped by loud booms and explosions.

With the clanging sound of the stone door closing, the surroundings suddenly became much quieter.

Mona cut off the circuit of the hydraulic transmission device to ensure that the stone door could not be opened by the pull rod outside.

In this way, the huge stone hall became the territory of the three people, and the cultists and nobles outside had no chance of entering this place in a short time.

"I'll take the lead this time, and you two will follow."

Mona walked in front with her weapon in hand, looking around vigilantly.

Her control over metal objects also includes the ability to sense metal, allowing her to more easily detect metal traps.

The floor of the stone hall is made of square stone bricks. It looks ordinary, but in fact only a few bricks are safe.

The cultists have placed pressure pedals and explosives under most of the bricks, and stepping on them rashly will result in death.

Mona led the team forward in a zigzag manner, and Wick sprayed fluorescent markers on the bricks they passed by to mark out a safe route.

The three of them safely avoided the minefield behind the door and successfully reached the giant storage rack closest to the stone door.

The shelf is carved from a whole piece of rock and is over twenty meters high, like a towering giant.

There are five shelves from top to bottom, and each shelf is filled with glass jars of different sizes.

There are two types of labels on the jars.

The first type of label was made by the cultists out of metal sheets, with the contents of the jar written in Low Gothic.

Another type of label is a bone fragment embedded in the glass jar, with the surface covered with strange cuneiform characters, each stroke as sharp as a bone spur.

"Do you recognize this language?" Wick turned on the flashlight and projected a beam of light towards the bone fragments.

Mona and Li Nuo both shook their heads.

Mona really doesn't know.

Li Nuo knew it but couldn't say it.

He recognized the origin of this text at a glance. It was the language used by the Bone Drinkers, a fungal alien civilization.

But that's all.

He only knew the origin of the text but could not understand its connotation.

Judging from the current clues, Li Nuo is 90% sure that this treasure house was built by the Bone Drinkers, and the various things in it were also placed here by the Bone Drinkers.

This collecting-like behavior is related to the Bone Drinkers' civilizational defects.

Due to their overdevelopment in both predation and parasitism, Bone Drinkers have almost no ability to develop their own.

They can only invent and create indirectly by parasitizing scientific researchers.

However, such people generally pay great attention to self-protection and rarely face the risk of fungal infection.

Faced with this situation, the Bone Drinkers developed the habit of hoarding large quantities of supplies in case of emergency.

For extremely important materials, they choose to build treasure houses in secret places for long-term storage.

As far as Li Nuo knew, the warehouses used by the Bone Drinkers to store ordinary supplies were generally powerless cargo ships or abandoned space stations.

Like the stone hall buried deep underground in front of us, it is obviously a treasure house for storing important materials.

This explains why there are so many antiques here.

Thinking that this place was once the territory of the Bone Drinkers, Li Nuo immediately cast a series of identification spells.

so far so good.

No Bone Drinker spores are present around.

This treasure house is so old that the spores floating in the air cannot possibly survive.

But if there was an ecological box here to protect the spores, then things would go differently.

It is possible that the Bone Drinker spores in the eco-box can survive for hundreds or even thousands of years, provided that the eco-box is not damaged.

Thinking this in his mind, Li Nuo looked into the distance, gazing into the depths of the treasure house.

After the helmet's night vision module failed, lighting relied on searchlights set up by the cultists.

The deepest part of the treasure house is pitch black, and the cultists have not explored there yet.

When Li Nuo stared at the darkness, the system marked a virtual green dot in his field of vision.

Two lines of system text are refreshed synchronously.
