Chapter 199 Assemble

Several hours later, Su Mo squatted in the corner of the nest, utterly bored.

Not far away, the people from the Immortal Empire were whispering and discussing things, occasionally glancing at Su Mo in the corner.

Su Mo yawned, unfazed. Of course, he knew that the Immortal Empire's people didn't like him and were wary of him. There was nothing strange about that.

At this time, several people from the Immortal Empire took out a special device from their engineering mecha and installed it in various corners of the nest. After some debugging, they activated the devices.

In an instant, a special air membrane unfolded, enveloping the entire area.

At the same time, they used the external equipment on the engineering mecha to start purifying the nest. In a blink of an eye, the entire nest became habitable.

Su Mo was also a little surprised. The Immortal Empire's technology sequence was really impressive.

Just as Su Mo was watching with some fascination, a nutrient bar was suddenly handed to him from the side.

Su Mo subconsciously turned his head and saw that Kelius had walked over at some point. Her expression was still blank, revealing no joy or sorrow.

"Thanks."

Su Mo smiled, took it, and ate it to replenish his strength. Who knew how long he would be squatting in this place?

After giving it to him, Kelius turned and left.

Su Mo looked at Kelius's back, becoming even more pensive. To be honest, he couldn't quite see through her.

At this time, Creator · Devourer's low voice sounded in Su Mo's mind: "Are you really planning to hang out with them?"

"Yeah, maybe there will be surprises following them. Anyway, they are more familiar with this place than us, and there are more of them, so it's easier to find things. After all, relying on ourselves alone would be like looking for a needle in a haystack. It's unrealistic."

Su Mo replied lazily.

Just as Su Mo and Creator · Devourer were discussing, Kelayatt suddenly called out.

"Everyone, come over here!"

Everyone present gathered around Kelayatt.

Su Mo also joined the crowd.

Kelayatt glanced at everyone present and said, "Now, everyone will use this place as a gathering point, in groups of two. If possible, don't use mecha. Scatter and search for the location of the VI-type Lord-class Heterogeneous · Antotaner's main body."

"Yes!"

Everyone present responded.

"Very good, then let's start forming teams."

Kelayatt replied indifferently.

"I'm willing to work with Kelius."

Bucerus immediately recommended himself.

At this time, some people who originally wanted to team up with Kelius shut their mouths when they saw Bucerus speak up.

Just then, Su Mo went straight to Kelius and said with a smile, "I should team up with Kelius."

"You!"

Bucerus's face was even more angry when he saw Su Mo cut in.

Kelius frowned slightly, but quickly returned to normal.

Kelayatt looked at Kelius, and Kelius said directly, "I'm with Su Mo."

"Okay, that's settled then."

Kelayatt nodded in response.

So, under the unkind gazes of the crowd, Su Mo and Kelius left as a team. They chose a larger passage to explore deeper.

They were silent all the way.

Seeing this, Su Mo coughed and asked.

"Are you angry?"

But Kelius didn't answer him.

So Su Mo explained to Kelius: "I can't help it. You also know that your companions all want me dead. If I team up with them or you leave me there alone, I'll definitely be done for. Who else would I choose if I didn't choose you?"

Kelius naturally understood, but she really wasn't angry at Su Mo, and just didn't want to talk to him.

The two explored all the way in. Su Mo noticed that when Kelius didn't reach a fork in the road, she would squat down and carefully check the ground at each fork.

Su Mo just stood quietly and watched.

Soon, Kelius chose a fork and led Su Mo in.

Looking at Kelius's back, Su Mo could confirm that Kelius was really working hard to find the VI-type Lord-class Heterogeneous · Antotaner.

But for some reason, Su Mo always felt that Kelius's attitude towards her own empire was a bit intriguing.

......

Two days later.

Su Mo yawned and followed Kelius around.

Kelius's expression became more and more solemn. She kept checking the marks on the ground. Suddenly, her eyes lit up. She saw new drag marks on the ground.

"Found a clue?"

Su Mo asked.

"I did. Officer Su Mo, I want to remind you that I am now going to investigate the VI-type Lord-class Heterogeneous · Antotaner. Once I make a mistake in the investigation, I will definitely die. You'd better think carefully about whether you want to continue following me. If you die, I won't be responsible."

Kelius seemed to be hoping that Su Mo would back down.

Unfortunately, Su Mo was not frightened. He thought for a long time about where the Para fruit was most likely to be found in this intricate underground cave.

Most likely, it was in the lair of the VI-type Lord-class Heterogeneous · Antotaner.

"No problem, I won't let you be responsible."

Su Mo replied easily.

Kelius couldn't help but take another look at Su Mo, and then continued to walk forward.

Soon, the two reached the end of the passage in front of them and came to a cave. The cave was about several thousand square meters in size.

The bottom of the cave was full of messy bones.

Most importantly, in the pile of bones, Kelius saw a person in advanced IV-generation mechanical armor lying inside, his life or death unknown.

Kelius immediately walked up quickly, squatted down and turned the person over. She frowned when she looked at his face.

This was a high-ranking officer of the Immortal Empire, and he looked like he was already dead.

Just as Kelius was checking the specific cause of his death.

At this moment, a pair of scarlet eyes suddenly opened on the top of the cave.

Su Mo noticed the abnormality immediately, and he suddenly raised his head. He saw a huge black hole at the top of the gray cave, and a lurking monster suddenly pounced on Kelius.

"Be careful!"

Su Mo's muscles tensed up, and he instantly burst out with amazing speed and rushed forward.

In the instant of approaching, he pounced on Kelius.

Having been warned by Su Mo, Kelius had just raised her head to see the monster pouncing from above. Before she could react, she was pushed away by Su Mo. The two of them fell to the ground and rolled out more than ten meters.

At this time, a monster fifteen meters tall, rat-like, with uneven gray skin, a half-rotted head with vaguely exposed white bones, scarlet eyes, a mouth revealing sharp teeth, and limbs with sharp claws as hard as rocks, missed its target.

Creator · Devourer issued a warning to Su Mo.

"Be careful, it's a IV-type Elite Contaminated Heterogeneous · Nightmare Rot Rat. Don't look at its small size. Its teeth, claws, and even blood are highly poisonous, and its combat power is not bad."

"IV-type?"
