Everyone's hunting for treasure: I'll give you 100 times the loot and hand it over to the

The basement of the old city hospital.

The fishy, ​​foul smell hit me right in the head.

The elevator shaft was just a dark hole. The broken steel cable dangled in mid-air, spinning. No wind could get through.

Lu Yan stood at the edge of the well. His combat boots crunched on the upturned iron sheets.

The Void Disc hovered before his palm, the black lotus mark spreading from its edge towards the center. A cross-sectional view of the sixth floor and below was projected onto the disc's surface.

The cross-sections of the cement floor slabs and load-bearing walls have all disappeared.

Living tissue replaced conventional building materials. The flesh walls wriggled back and forth in the cross-sectional view.

The area originally marked Ward 7 was now empty. The blue coordinates representing the target kept drifting, sliding outwards several meters every second.

The entire underground space is shifting positions. The system is dragging Lin Chuxue away from the vertical coordinate, preventing vertical pursuit from above.

Four red anchor points popped up on the right side of the screen.

They are embedded deep in the foundation around the elevator shaft.

All blood vessels and fatty networks grow around these four points.

Living tissue cannot withstand the static load of a building weighing tens of thousands of tons. If these four supports break, the flesh on top will not last more than three seconds.

But the nodes are moving. They distribute the pressure by constantly shifting positions. The red dots on the board trace a circle, robbing Peter to pay Paul.

Wen Yue stepped forward, carrying the World-Destroying Thunder Crossbow. The crossbow muzzle was aimed at the abyss. Living creatures were climbing up the tube wall.

Qin Wuyi took off the canvas bag and threw it on the ground.

The zipper was pulled open. Six main discs, engraved with array patterns, rolled out. He stepped on one of them.

The boundaries of heaven and earth are established from his position outwards.

The brass-colored lines gleamed brightly in the dim light, wedging themselves deep into the gaps between the floor tiles.

The terrazzo floor was pushed up to both sides.

The stone slab was flipped over, revealing a layer of white, fatty tissue underneath.

The array patterns carved out scorched, blackened furrows half a foot deep.

Sparks traveled down the grooves and burned into the fat layer, the high temperature sizzling the pale fat. The smell of burning wafted through the air.

The wandering blue coordinate point paused for a moment.

A harsh, grating sound came from underground.

A large number of bones and metal structures were tangled together. The coordinates abruptly stopped.

Qin Wuyi bent down to pick up the remaining array plates. His forehead was covered in sweat, but his breathing remained steady.

The thing at the bottom of the well climbed up.

Rows of deformed, fleshy chunks, with their mutilated arms, reached for cracks in the wall and piled up one on top of the other towards the well opening.

His arms were covered in tiny barbs. Bodily fluids dripped down the anti-rust paint, corroding the surface and creating numerous small pores.

Zhao Leiguang picked up his two shields and stepped to the front of the group.

The patterns on the Earth Pulse suit were fully activated. Instead of retreating, he advanced, using a short running start to lean forward and crash into the well opening.

The brutal ramming attack has begun.

The two shields slammed into the first pile of flesh. The screech of impact filled the corridor.

Bright white pulses rippled across the shield's surface. The monsters in front rotted at the base of the shield, turning into a bloody pulp. The chunks of flesh behind continued to fill the gaps, using their sheer numbers to deplete kinetic energy.

Zhao Leiguang braced his front foot against the edge of the well. Alloy spikes pierced the cement. His hind legs shattered three paving stones. The dump truck didn't stop. He swung his heavy shield and pressed down again.

War tramples.

The entire shaft shook three times. The airflow swept downwards in a circular pattern.

The monsters clinging to the inner wall were all swept away by the shockwave. A series of impacts echoed from the abyss as their bodies slammed into the iron plate at the bottom, the echoes overlapping.

Zhao Lei took a half step back, shook his arms, and glanced down at the shield.

Seven or eight cracks appeared along the edge of the defensive line. Dark red bits of flesh hung in the crevices. He spat on the ground.

"This crappy place is even more exhausting than a biological waste pool. The logistics guys would cry if they saw the repair orders."

Lu Yan drew a straight line on the Void Disc with his finger.

The conventional approach involves meticulously dismantling the control network segment by segment. That would take enough time for the people working below to die twice over.

His gaze swept past the complex flow of information and fixed on the fundamental stress point at the bottom.

All four red anchor marks on the control panel were locked. They had just completed one circular trajectory and returned to their original positions.

The next movement will occur in two seconds.

"Wen Yue, four stakes, two-second window."

Lu Yan put away the sectional view.

"Jump after the explosion."

Wen Yue was already in position. The World-Destroying Thunder Crossbow was raised three inches. The bowstring was pulled back to its full length. Three high-explosive grenades were loaded into their slots.

The trigger is pulled.

The airflow stirred up dust from the ground. The arrow pierced through the gaping hole in the fleshy wall, the fuse pointing towards the load-bearing part of the foundation.

Wen Yue withdrew and fired a barrage of arrows.

The fourth arrow is aimed at the far corner below, at the other end of the main load-bearing beam.

A prolonged vibration traveled up from the soles of my feet.

The high-explosive warhead detonates with a delay, and the shock wave sweeps across the cross-section of the skeleton.

All four load-bearing nodes broke off at the base. The grid connecting the upper and lower floors lost its support.

The corridor walls collapsed inwards. The floor tiles shattered into powder. The underlying membrane leaked out, creating a large hole in the middle.

The floors run straight through to the bottom.

A pungent, cold wind blew up from below. The stench was mixed with the smell of waste oil from machinery.

Lu Yan was the first to leap in. Wen Yue and Qin Wuyi followed closely behind. Zhao Leiguang raised his shield above his head and jumped in last.

The black lotus domain opened in mid-air. The dark petals closed upwards, enveloping the four people in the center.

The wind howled stronger. Countless bent steel bars, wedged in the rocks, fell down, crashing against the outer edge of the Black Lotus Domain, only to be deflected by the force-dissipating mechanism.

Only the indicator lights were on in the darkness.

There is no hovering buffer. It's a purely physical free fall.

The surrounding fossil walls receded rapidly upwards.

The fleshy tentacles that had rushed in missed their target, being sliced ​​into pieces before even touching the edge of the area. Chunks of flesh flew through the air.

Lu Yan stood at the flower's stamen. The coordinates of the Void Disc jumped within the red zone. The stationary blue dot representing the hibernation pod entered the detection range.

The target is directly below. The two coordinate circles completely overlap. The landing point is exactly in the bullseye.

Lin Chuxue did not run around.

The upward airflow supported the bottom of the lotus petals, chilling them to the bone.

We've reached the bottom.

The Black Lotus Domain slammed heavily onto a solid metal floor. The shockwave scattered years of accumulated dust, sending rust flying everywhere.

Lu Yan withdrew his domain.

There were no incandescent lights around. No camouflage depicting suns and clouds. This was an underground hall that seemed to stretch to the horizon. The air was thick with the smell of machine oil.

The four players' boots secured them firmly on the grid board.

Something changed in the shadows.

Hundreds of iron chains dragged across the ground. The sound was monotonous and dense. Something alive was rapidly approaching.

Clusters of faint lights appeared in the darkness.

Scarlet eyeballs rose from around the hibernation pods, row upon row, forming an endless red wall. The sounds of pale, slimy liquid falling to the ground blended together.

Right in the center of the red wall.

A massive silhouette covered in silver pipes began to move.

Pipes were embedded in the cracks of the surrounding floor, the other end connected to hundreds of pieces of wreckage pieced together. The muscle tissue on the surface of the wreckage was still twitching.

The Evolver's mastermind personally blocked the entrance.
