Chapter 239: K Area Observations: The Martians in the Metal Slug

Lin Zhenxi actually didn't care much about Mr. Da's wrong inference. After all, he was just a small local leader in "Area K" and it was impossible for him to know everything.

Well, Lin Zhenxi still doesn’t know that Mr. Da is actually the leader of one of the major clans in “Area K”.

However, this matter had nothing to do with her, and she didn't care about it. The problem facing Lin Zhenxi now was how to open the elevator door that seemed to have no electricity at all.

Uh... a problem as difficult as elementary school arithmetic?

Lin Zhenxi raised his hand and cast an unlocking spell. A slight "click" sound came from inside the elevator door, and it opened to both sides with a small gap that was so small that even a finger could not be inserted.

It's true that the unlocking spell is used to unlock a door, but it only targets locked doors. In other words, its function is to unlock the door, not open the door. This elevator door has no power, and the lock is only unlocked. If you want to pass through the door, Lin Zhenxi needs to add some force.

Lin Zhenxi actually has a magic spell that can solve this situation, which is "left-right separation", which is specifically designed to deal with the stubborn elements at the moment.

But Lin Zhenxi didn't act rashly. Instead, she ordered the Gray Jade Bird to sneak through the small crack to explore the way for her. Then, she took out a jar filled with a bright blue liquid from the space cube.

That’s right, it’s the embryo of the mass-produced Asura Rhinoceros Beetle 3.0.

Now Lin Zhenxi has not completed the work of turning the summoning mass production type 3.0 spells. If you want to use them, you have to take them out of the space cube first, and then use them as templates to copy them with the copy spell, which is quite troublesome.

But now that Lin Zhenxi has obtained the golden hook from the previous world, she can enter and exit freely without consuming contribution points. In this case, doesn't that mean she can actually let Kinos continue to optimize the mass-produced Asura Rhinoceros Beetle? A single jar is still too large. It would be best if it could be simplified to the level of a test tube. And if production increases, Lin Zhenxi's space cube can hold hundreds or even thousands of them, and she won't feel bad about using them. This way, she won't have to research how to turn the mass-produced summoning spell into a magic spell.

Parallel Consciousness No. 3, who was responsible for developing the "Second Law: Equivalent Exchange", immediately jumped out and gave a thumbs up to Lin Zhenxi's idea.

With a "Duplicate" command, a jar at Lin Zhenxi's feet split in two (Mr. Da's eyes widened). Lin Zhenxi put the real one back into the space cube, activated the replica, and moved a little further away.

The embryo, floating in the nutrient solution, expanded rapidly, soon bursting through the encapsulating glass and falling to the ground. After the lump of flesh squirmed on the ground for a while, a red-skinned, muscular man with horns, over three meters tall, stood up from the ground and looked at Lin Zhenxi.

"Go, pry open that door, then jump down. If anyone attacks you, kill them without mercy."

After hearing Lin Zhenxi's instructions, this mass-produced Ashura Rhinoceros Beetle walked directly to the elevator door, inserted its fingers as thick as a baseball bat into the gap of the door, and forcibly pried the two elevator doors open.

The two steel-clad elevator doors were directly pulled into the shapes of "《" and "》".

Seeing how vigorous the youngster hatched from the jar was, the Master had completely given up on thinking. He now felt that everything he had experienced today was just a dream, and perhaps he would wake up from this bizarre dream in the next second.

After opening the elevator door, Brother Redskin jumped down without hesitation without even looking at the situation in the elevator shaft, and quickly disappeared into the darkness below.

Lin Zhenxi counted silently in his mind. Nearly ten seconds passed before the sound of a mass-produced model landing rang out from below. Taking into account the speed of air conduction, the vertical height of this elevator shaft should be between two and three hundred meters.

The speed of the gray bird is too fast, making it inconvenient to use it to measure distance. This kind of high school physics problem is more friendly to Lin Zhenxi.

Who could have dug such a deep shaft under the TV tower?

However, digging so deep will not have much impact on the TV tower above.

As soon as the mass-produced model landed, it was immediately attacked by a large number of naked red-eyed aliens, the same kind that Lin Zhenxi had encountered at the barbecue restaurant before. Because they were now naked, Lin Zhenxi was finally able to see what they looked like through the eyes of the gray jay.

What the hell are these? Aside from their red eyes, they look just like the Faceless Men.

The faces of these red-eyed creatures are almost flat, with only a few holes for the eyes, ears, nose, and mouth. Their bodies are also extremely clean, not only without hair, but even without hair underneath.

That’s right, the bottom is flat, neither convex nor concave, just flat.

This can't even be considered a living thing, right? No wonder the red-eyed creature wraps itself up so tightly when it's out in the open. With their dignity, they'd probably be stared at with suspicion wherever they go.

However, when Lin Zhenxi looked at these red-eyed creatures, he thought of a creature he had encountered in the wizarding world, that is, the Inferi.

Inferi are corpses reanimated by Dark Magic. They are lifeless, soulless, and mindless, completely obedient to the Dark Mage who summoned them. They are powerful but slow to move, and prefer dark and damp environments. However, they can be easily killed by cleansing forces such as running water, fire, and bright light.

Generally speaking, it is a fairly easy creature to deal with. Just keep your distance and don't get caught or bitten by it. No matter how many of them come, they will be your food.

Obviously, those red eyes weren't Inferi, as they were much faster than Inferi, and Inferi didn't have red eyes. But even if they weren't, they were probably something similar, after all, their ability to be dissolved by running water was so obvious.

Lin Zhenxi estimated that if he went down and fired a holy light bullet, he would be able to blow away all these red-eyed gray monsters.

But that wouldn't be challenging at all. And what if I showed such overwhelming power that the mastermind got scared off? The causal line was now extending in a stable direction, suggesting the mastermind was still sitting tight, probably confident in his guarding minions.

The battle between the mass-produced Asura Rhinoceros Beetle and the red-eyed, enhanced Inferi was a one-sided affair. The mass-produced Asura was like a steamroller fueled by heavy diesel fuel, emitting billowing black smoke as it crushed every obstacle in its path. The red-eyed creatures couldn't even touch the mass-produced Asura's body before its swung fists shattered their heads and tore their bodies apart.

With such severe injuries, relying solely on self-healing abilities was no longer enough. After those red-eyed creatures, which had lost a significant portion of their body mass, stubbornly wriggled on the ground for a moment, they erupted in black flames and burned themselves to ash.

This time, Lin Zhenxi saw it clearly: before those red eyes burned, a black shadow would emerge from their bodies. Those shadows seemed to have no three-dimensional form and could only move quickly along the ground.

Those black shadows all ran in one direction. Lin Zhenxi sent a gray bird to follow them and soon saw where the shadows finally gathered.

Is that a... uh, big black flower bud?

Beneath the flower buds lay two strange creatures resembling octopuses. They possessed the ability to float, their heads resembling those of octopuses. Two of the tentacles beneath their heads were noticeably thicker than the others, and one of them even had something that looked like a magic wand curled around its thick tentacle.

The grey marionette quietly approached them from above their heads. They were arguing fiercely and did not notice the tiny grey marionette lurking towards them.

Unexpectedly, when the gray bird approached, Lin Zhenxi actually heard the voices of the two octopus monsters.

They communicate through telepathic broadcasting...

For creatures without vocal organs, telepathic broadcasting is actually a very good means of communication. However, this method is even less confidential than suppressing the volume; anyone close enough can hear it. Crucially, suppressing the range of telepathic broadcasting is a much more difficult skill than actually using it, and most minions simply don't know how to use it.

So, sometimes failure is doomed from the very beginning.

Through the octopus monsters' arguments, Lin Zhenxi learned that they were a species called "evil demons," and that those blocking the mass-produced Asura Rhinoceros Beetle were their subordinates, the "collectors" and "empty shells," likely the black shadows and the self-immolating red eyes. As for the black flower bud behind them, it was a "paradoxical individual" that had yet to "bloom."

Then they also have a boss called "Master Demon", who ordered the two evil demons to come to New Blue City to cultivate paradoxical individuals.

Their plan had been going smoothly, with no one realizing the collectors, who would self-destruct after their actions, were coming from this location. The collectors were responsible for returning the collected energy to feed the paradox individuals. But today, something went wrong, and an enemy broke into their secret base.

The two demons were arguing over whether they should destroy the invading enemy or abandon their position and move. The demon holding the magic wand advocated killing the enemy, the mass-produced Asura Rhinoceros Beetle, and then completely blocking the elevator they had no use for, so that no one could enter from above.

The other demon with a bigger head thought that their position had been exposed, and that it would take a long time for the paradox individuals to mature. They should abandon this place now and go to a more secluded place to resume the mission assigned to them by the Demon Lord.

In general, just in the short time they were arguing with each other, they had already revealed everything that Lin Zhenxi wanted to know.

Really great! I hope to encounter more enemies that cooperate like them in the future.
