Chapter 171 The Destroyed Weakened Tower

"I sent people to inquire about this matter, and almost everyone denied it. But it is precisely because of this attitude that it shows that they are aware of this matter. Of course, some people seem to be concerned about it. They didn’t know anything about it, and most of these people were the last people to enter the basement.”

Wang Xu's analysis was sound, but Ning Ze had a different view: "I don't know whether the treasure is really there. After all, judging from the information I have learned, this matter should be everyone's guess, but I am more concerned about what it is. Who mentioned this first?"

"And according to the news we have learned, many people have died in this underground chamber, but no one seems to have much fear. Instead, they have a kind of longing and desire that is lower than the treasure. This emotion is obvious Something’s wrong.”

Ningze's "vocal brain" ability can analyze some of the inner emotions of these people through their voices. Whether it is the man with a rat head and a rat face just now, or other people's voices, he can hardly hear too much fear.

It should be said that in this environment, there are many monsters, and many people have died, and everyone will feel a little scared. Even if people and money die, the fear should not disappear.

"Of course, the biggest suspicion is the occupants of the basement entrance where we entered. It seems that we did not see their people here."

Ning Ze frowned and said, this is a big problem. He occupies the entrance to an underground chamber. When the underground chamber has not been fully explored, he should not be uninterested in the next exploration. But the fact is that his people are indeed No relevant information could be collected from this basement.

"Then Lord, what should we do next?" Wang Xu also realized that something was wrong with the situation and couldn't help but ask.

"Don't worry, don't you mean that the people here will conduct the next wave of exploration of the basement later? We will see how the situation goes before we make a decision."

Ning Ze found an empty space and asked half of the soldiers to explore the limited underground space to collect as much useful information as possible.

Soon, a piece of good news came. His soldiers discovered the existence of the anchor point center in this underground space.

Under the leadership of this soldier, Ning Ze and his party arrived at the center of the anchor point. Sure enough, they saw a tall stone statue here. There was also a relatively short stone pillar next to the stone statue. At first glance, it looked like a weakened tower. .

Surprisingly, this weakened tower seems to have been damaged, and judging from the signs of damage, it should have happened in the past two days.

"What a waste of natural resources!"

Ning Ze spat, and at the same time realized that there was something wrong with the aura. If there was just someone with bad hands, then if the anchor point and the weakening tower were put together, it would be not only the weakening tower that was damaged, but also the anchor point center. will be damaged.

The fact is that there is no trace of damage on the anchor center. On the contrary, the weakened tower is almost broken by someone using a blunt instrument. This is obviously someone deliberately watching this thing to destroy it.

"It looks like it is still a level two weakened tower. If this thing is not damaged, it will be of great help to the possible battles that may follow. But now that it has been damaged, the meaning of it is somewhat intriguing."

The Anchor Point Center was still in an unrecognized state, and there was no outline on the stone statue's face. Ning Ze thought for a moment, then took out a dagger and stabbed his palm.

When the blood overflowed, he sprinkled the blood accumulated in the palm of his hand on the anchor point center. After all, this thing caused a territorial citizen to cut off his arm last time. Such a mistake must not be made again.

At the same time, some people around him also noticed the situation on his side, but they all expressed confusion about Ning Ze's actions, and they did not show much interest on their faces.

Soon, the Anchor Point Center was soaked in his blood and successfully recognized its owner, so he dismantled the Anchor Point Center and put it into his backpack.

"This is already the second anchor point center I have obtained. As for how to use this anchor point center in the future, I have to think carefully."

This is a small surprise from this trip. Fortunately, the other people don't know what this thing is, so he picked it up. Otherwise, how could such a good thing wait for him.

The anchor point center can be teleported directly within a thousand kilometers, but if you want to teleport through the anchor point center, you need to see the level of the anchor point being teleported. The anchor point being teleported determines whether it can be teleported.

At this time, after resting, the crowd in the basement space began to take action one after another and began to walk towards the depths of the basement.

Ning Ze also quickly motioned for Wang Xu and others to follow them. When they followed these people, they didn't know that a figure gradually appeared in the darkness.

"Haha, if you want to hide behind others and be a turtle, I'm afraid it's not that simple."

There were quite a few people in their underground space. Apart from the fifty or so of them, there were probably more than three hundred people. All of these people were holding torches and heading deep into the basement in the dark environment. As they left to explore, there was no trace of fear on their faces, as if the front was their destination, and as long as they kept moving forward, they would gain the final victory.

Ning Ze, on the other hand, walked carefully along the way. He always turned on his snake sense, and used his night vision ability to watch possible situations around him. At the same time, his hearing was also used to the extreme, almost listening. In all directions.

Suddenly, a weak voice sounded, and Ning Ze was startled for a moment, because the voice sounded familiar to him, as if he had heard it somewhere before.

But the volume of the sound was too low, and he had no idea what the sound meant. It wasn't until he followed these people and continued to move forward for about two hundred meters that the sound became clearer and clearer.

"It sounds like a flute?"

He was not sure. If he mentioned the sound of flutes, the first thing he thought of was the kind of flute made by the barbarians yesterday, but the sound of the flute he heard today seemed a bit strange.

The flute sound he heard yesterday was high and sharp, and the sound sounded very silky, floating like a song. However, the flute sound at this time sounded very low, like a war drum, and sometimes it was intermittent. It's almost like I can't tell it's a piece of music.

"Did you hear any flute sounds?" Ning Ze asked.

Wang Xu pricked up his ears and listened carefully.

"Lord, I didn't hear any flute sound." Wang Xu listened for a while and finally gave this answer.

Ning Ze looked at him differently, and then looked at the other soldiers. Sure enough, the other soldiers didn't seem to hear any strange sounds.

"This is strange. Such a sound is not too quiet. Even people with poor hearing should be able to hear some sounds."

"Maybe it's because of the frequency of this sound that other people can't hear it?"

He suddenly remembered that his ears had been upgraded this morning, and the sound frequencies they could receive had also been expanded. The lowest sound frequency could be heard at ten hertz, and the highest sound frequency at one hundred thousand hertz could be heard.

But for ordinary people, sounds with frequencies lower than 20 Hz or higher than 20,000 Hz cannot be heard.

At this moment, a roar suddenly resounded throughout the underground space, and Ning Ze's soldiers immediately gathered into formation.

The rest of the people also stopped at this moment. Faced with such a situation, these people not only did not show too much fear, but also showed excitement on their faces.

Ning Ze didn't understand, but he couldn't think too much at this time. Sure enough, the next second, he suddenly remembered the sound of footsteps in the darkness, and then loud sounds began to appear in the faint firelight.

But what concerned him the most was the sound of the flute that kept ringing in his ears. Judging from the faces of the others, there was a high probability that they would not be able to hear such a sound. If it weren't for the level of the ear organ that had just been upgraded today. , I'm afraid he will doubt himself whether he is hallucinating.

At this moment, he suddenly felt as if something was missing from his body, but it didn't bring much change to himself.

Then, he asked Wang Xu who was beside him: "Do you feel any discomfort in your body?"

Wang Xu was a little surprised, but he sensed it carefully. After a moment, he said uncertainly: "I don't seem to feel any discomfort."

But the next second, the feeling of losing something appeared again, but he couldn't feel what he had lost.

Instead, Wang Xu suddenly spoke: "Lord, I seem to feel that my head has become heavier?!?"

He wasn't sure, but after asking other soldiers about their situation, it seemed that this was the case.

The people in front were already fighting against the savage beasts, and their killing cries were loud. When facing the huge savage beasts, they did not choose to retreat. Instead, they stepped forward with a desperate attitude.

Stab!

Suddenly, the sound of the flute echoing in my ears increased in volume, and the feeling of loss appeared again, and this time it was unusually clear.

"The sanity value, it turns out that the sanity value is constantly being lost!"

Feeling the changes in his body, Ning Ze suddenly reacted. At the same time, his soldiers also became dizzy, but the condition was still mild and had almost no impact on their ability to move.

"It is certain that this kind of flute sound will cause the loss of sanity points, but the frequency of loss is not high, and some will be lost probably every minute."

He was not sure. The reason why he couldn't feel the difference before was mainly because he had the blessing of [Psychologist (I)] aura, which gave him 3.8 times the sanity recovery time. Although it was not much, it was enough to recover the lost sanity. Sanity is restored.

It was just that the volume of the flute increased later, and relatively more sanity points were lost. Even with the halo around, there was no way to recover the lost sanity points in a short period of time.

But his subjects could not recover their sanity so quickly. They had only half the effect of the halo. After losing their sanity this time, they clearly felt a dull feeling deep in their brains.

At this time, the battle had not spread to them yet. Looking at those brave people who were not afraid of death, Ning Ze fell into deep thought.

"I'm afraid that these people also lost their sanity value in ancient times, which is why their mental state is a bit wrong. But it should be said that these players and the citizens are aware of the sanity value setting, and they should not be unaware of it. This question."

He suddenly thought of a word: boil a frog in warm water.

If he was losing his sanity points at the same speed as before, it might not be easy for people to notice. The reason why he could detect anything amiss was mainly because the sound of the flute made him cautious and always paying attention to all changes.

If they couldn't hear the sound of the flute, I'm afraid they would ignore this issue.

Secondly, the crazy spread of the treasure talk made these people focus on the treasure and less attention on themselves.

But if it is deduced in this way, then there are some illogical places. For example, who made the remarks about the treasure? This was obviously a ruse, and the treasure's words were an important part of the plan.

"Let's retreat first!" The situation in the basement space is a bit strange. Ning Ze is going to retreat first before making a decision. After all, the loss of sanity points has not stopped. The longer he stays here, the more likely he will be in the situation he faces later. The more unknown it becomes.

However, at this moment, a strange feeling suddenly came down from the top of his head, as if a layer of clouds had fallen above his head, but when he instinctively looked up, he found nothing unusual. .

But then, he was surprised to find that many wild beasts took the initiative to break away from the battle with those people, and actually rushed towards his position.

"What's going on?"

Ning Ze was extremely puzzled, but at this time, it was too late to think so much. He immediately ordered the soldiers: "Everyone is here, throw smoke bombs, and be ready to fight at any time."

It was impossible to retreat. Since they were inexplicably targeted by the savage beasts, judging from the speed of both parties, their legs could not outrun these four-legged monsters, and they did not have enough time to teleport away through the anchor point. time.

Soon, dozens of smoke bombs were thrown out by the soldiers, forming a thick smoke wall on the battlefield, which could effectively stop the beasts from advancing.

Because there was a large crowd in front of him, in order to avoid accidental damage and create more unnecessary enemies, Ning Ze had no choice but to abandon long-range attack methods and instead set up weakened towers in place.

Hu Er and others also showed up, with almost sixty soldier souls, plus more than fifty people like him. With the help of the weakening tower, it should be no problem to resist hundreds of savage beasts.
