Be a Human Again From Conan

 Tower of Mystery, Level 33.

In a deep forest, the ancient trees are towering, blocking out the sky and the sun. The vines are entangled between the trees, as if they are covered with layers of large nets, making it difficult for sunlight to penetrate, making this place particularly eerie.

Under the ancient trees that are hundreds of meters high, a team of five people is walking through.

There are three men and two women in the team, all around 20 years old. Four of them look relatively relaxed. Only the girl who is faintly surrounded by the middle has obvious tension in her expression and movements.

Walking directly in front, a young man wearing cyan armor noticed this, turned around and spread his hands easily: "Don't be nervous, Wuzi, they said that the 33rd floor is a floor that has been 'fully explored' by players."

 The so-called complete exploration of a floor means that players have walked through every location on this floor, knowing the distribution of monsters in every place, and eliminating all dangerous floors.

"I, I know, Brother Yoshiyuki." The girl named Kiriko had a baby face, her hands on her chest, and her voice and expression were delicate in response.

 Kawaii~ Negishi Yoshiyuki suddenly shouted in his heart, his lips turned up and his nostrils were enlarged, showing a crazy expression, and he returned to normal in an instant.

Not noticing the expressions of the other three people in the team rolling their eyes as they looked at each other, he walked backwards and waved his hand: "The strategy for this level must have been a year and nine months ago. I still remember this." The boss on the first floor was a humanoid tiger that was over five meters tall, a white tiger. I was in the strategy team at the time, and I shaved it off with a few cuts..."

After artistically processing past experiences, Negishi Yoshiyuki said: "The forest we are in is also called the 'Giant Forest'. It is the place where monsters spawn the most on the 33rd floor. It is also the only place in the Mysterious Tower above the 20th floor where you don't have to worry about poisonous insects. forest.

Just like trees, there will only be some huge monsters spawned here, including behemoths thirty or forty meters high. So we don't need to worry about sneak attacks. The actions of those giant beasts will cause huge noises.

Also because those giant beasts have thick skin and thick blood, few people come here to level up, so there is no need to guard against some annoying guys. With the players from our four strategy groups guiding you to level up, it won’t take long to reach level 30 here! "

 “Well, thank you, Brother Yi Xing.”

"You're welcome." Negishi Yoshiyuki smiled and raised another finger: "Oh, there is one more thing you must remember. In addition to monsters, there is also a poisonous mushroom called 'Dream Mushroom' that grows here. There are many It has strong hallucinogenic properties, even if you just touch it, you may fall into a 'sweet dream'."

Having said this, he heheed twice as if he had aftertaste, then lowered his voice, leaned a little closer to Wuzi and said: "Although dreams are really beautiful, we can't be greedy for too much. If we indulge in dreams, we will be transformed into A corpse covered with mushrooms..."

 Wuzi shrank her neck with a pale face.

Negishi Yoshiyuki, who was aroused to be protective, was about to be comforted when he suddenly saw Kiriko stretching out her slender fingers and gently pointing behind Negishi Yoshiyuki.

Negishi Yoshiyuki, who had been walking backwards, suddenly stopped walking and turned around in confusion.

 In an instant, an extremely fishy smell hit his face, and a **** mouth was less than 30 centimeters away from his head!

"Grass?!"

His face instantly turned pale with fright. Negishi Yoshiyuki slashed with his sword at the fastest speed in his life. A stream of blue ice spurted out in a fan shape, directly freezing a large area of ​​the ground in front of him and killing a giant sword that was over 20 meters long and over half the diameter. Rice's python is frozen!

"Huh...huh..." He took a few rough breaths and made sure everything was alright. Then he turned back and gave the girl Wuzi a handsome smile: "You should be more careful, I was almost attacked by this beast.

　　I must have scared you, Wuzi, it’s okay, we are all on the strategy team, and we have even fought a lot of bosses. This little thing... eh, huh? ! "

 Where is my companion? How did this python get so close to me? He turned around blankly and saw three companions standing on both sides of his frozen ground with smiles on their faces, looking like they had succeeded in their prank.

Looking at the frozen python, he discovered another problem. Although the python's mouth was wide open, there was no sign of life. There was an obvious huge gap seven inches inside the snake, which broke the snake's heart.

His face suddenly turned green and white: "I told you why you didn't hear any movement, but you secretly killed a python and carried it to scare me?!"

“We were afraid that you would scare Wuzi.” Another girl in the team laughed and said, “Do you think I wouldn’t tell Wuzi about the situation here last night? Don’t be too enthusiastic, Brother Yoshiyuki.”

Negishi Yoshiyuki blushed slightly and defended in a low voice: "It would never be wrong to remind you more..."

“But we didn’t kill the python.” Another young man said, “When we found it, it was already a corpse.”

"Ah?" Negishi Yoshiyuki was startled, and he looked closely at the python's wound. It was even clearer in the frozen state. He frowned and said, "Well, it looks like it was torn apart by sharp claws. It was very powerful and clean. It's a fatal hit, it's probably a monster like a giant ape, it's not far away, everyone, be careful."

"That's right. Brother Yi Xing is quite serious when he is serious." The girl in the team laughed.

Negishi Yoshiyuki was shocked. He glanced at Kiriko and found that she was looking at him with admiration. He immediately puffed up his chest and became excited: "Where was the snake corpse found? I'll go over and have a look."

After a while of vague analysis, the team that went deeper slowed down their pace, and soon found a...dinosaur lying on the ground.

The giant beast, which was probably nearly 50 meters long, was extremely intimidating, but Negishi Yoshiyuki smiled awkwardly: "Well, the giant ape may have been driven away by this dragon beast... (Awkward, looking in the wrong direction?

“Xiaochun, protect Wuzi, wait until we beat it to death, and let Wuzi do the last-ditch attack!”

　　　Arrangement is that he took the first step and rushed towards the dinosaur. He rushed all the way to a position 20 meters away from the dinosaur, and then suddenly stopped.

 “Isn’t it?”

 “What killed it?!”

The other two teammates exclaimed. After getting closer, they discovered that the huge dinosaur-like monster had a deep dent in its head, as if it had been crushed by some huge force. Like the giant python, it had already been lost. life.

 The three of them came closer to check, and the two girls who noticed something wrong also came closer. Their faces gradually became a little heavy. Wasn't this level fully explored? Why can't I figure out which monster is responsible for this?

 Player? Those guys with hammers?

"...It's okay." Seeing Kiriko's expression become more nervous, Negishi Yoshiyuki patted his chest: "There may be mutated monsters. What haven't our strategy team players seen? Kiriko, you don't have to be afraid!"

 The team moved forward at a slower pace. After spending more than ten minutes in a depressing atmosphere, they stopped again.

 The scene in front of them made the four strategy players stand on the spot blankly. Even Kiriko grabbed her arm in fear, and Negishi Yoshiyuki failed to give any response.

He has never seen this scene before.

I saw the corpses of more than a dozen giant beasts filling the ground in front of me, and the towering ancient trees also fell one after another.

Among the corpses of giant beasts are a 20-meter-tall rooster with its claws poking into its own chest, and a giant ape with its head twisted 180 degrees. There was a giant tiger impaled to the ground by a tree hugged by two people, and there were also strange creatures that were broken into two pieces.

 Cruel and bloody!

 Each of them died in different ways, but the same thing is that they all died very neatly!

"In the end what happened?"

 “Have the army come to sweep up?!”

“Don’t be kidding, the army doesn’t have such ability, right? This is the 33rd floor, a bunch of high-level monsters around level 40!”

"Brother Yi Xing, how about... let's go?"

Negishi Yoshiyuki swallowed, turned to look for Kiriko, and then realized that she was leaning against him, so he swallowed again: "Ahem, that's it..."

Ding~ The sudden prompt on the information panel made him pause for a moment after he was half-strengthened. He opened the inventory and took out the communication crystal, instilling spiritual power to activate it.

A calm male voice came from among them: "The coordinates of the boss on the 50th floor have been found, hurry up and gather on the 45th floor!" Yoshiyuki Negishi's expression suddenly relaxed, and he took a long breath and said: "Tsk, there is no way, it is important to defeat the boss, the strategy team You can’t live without me. As for this small situation on the 33rd floor, let’s wait until we clear the boss on the 50th floor and come back to take care of it!”

 The five people looked at each other, turned around, and ran quickly in the direction they came from!

 …

˜It is more than ten kilometers away from here.

In the clearing of the forest, next to a large firewood pot, Ji Xing was stirring the boiling soup with a large spoon.

 While the ingredients in the soup are tumbling, you can faintly see the most essential parts of certain organisms or the most tender pieces of meat, as well as many brightly colored mushrooms, green vegetables, onions and **** as seasoning ingredients.

 Feeling that this pot of 'Shiquan Dabu Soup' was almost full, Ji Xing took a spoonful of light soup.

 “His~ha~smells!”

As he closed his eyes and tasted it, Ji Xing felt vaguely like he was embracing Kaguya. He shook his head and said, "This dream mushroom is very powerful and not serious."

It has been a month since he entered the mysterious tower, and he has basically understood the situation of this place of rules that was born due to the overlapping of worlds.

Hunter’s Dark Continent, Sword Art Online’s SAO game, and Yu Yu Hakusho are all integrated in a harmonious and outrageous way.

For example, this kind of ‘dream mushroom’ is probably a disaster that can be ranked as D-level dangerous in the dark continent. At the same time, it is also a treasure for training for some beings with strong mental resistance.

Through the Treasure Hunting Rat Guild in Argo of Rats, Ji Xing also learned about the disaster treasures that appeared on the 49th floor that players have already conquered, or the situation on the 29th floor from the 21st to the 49th floor.

There is nothing familiar. They are probably CDE-level dangerous things. The first fifty floors are obviously just the beginning for the mysterious tower.

The only exception is the ‘immortal disease’ on level 46. Although this dangerous virus listed among the five major disasters is easy to isolate, it is very lethal. However, there is something different in that the treasure accompanying the immortal disease is not the alchemy plant Metalion, but something called the Resurrection Grass.

The place was tightly blockaded by the army, so Ji Xing did not go there to explore it for the time being.

He is not in a hurry. Even though the time ratio here is 1:1 with the time in the Demon Continent, since Ji Xing has no other world to invade, the remaining seven years before the change in the Demon Continent can be spent on Here, after all, digital hierarchical rules are a good thing.

In this month, Ji Xing has been improving his strength and getting promoted.

Now his telepathy ability (human), telepathy ability (qi) and absolute strength have each been improved by one or two levels, and his strength has improved to a certain extent.

 The level has reached level 41.

 Level: Level 41 (220,000/10 million)

When the strategy group is about 60+ levels, Ji Xing has maintained this speed of killing monsters along the way, and it will be almost the same in two months. After all, there is a fundamental gap in the speed of killing monsters.

Ji Xing has installed 40 of the 41 skill slots at level 41. During the break in training, Ji Xing also practiced and improved other skills that Ji Xing felt could be used in Demon Continent and other invading worlds in the future.

 For example, cooking skills.

 Culinary Skills: Special Level (Level 1) (70,000/200,000) → Special Level (Level 2) (116,000/400,000)

After cooking this pot of Shiquan Dabu soup, thousands of experience points were recorded. He was able to use ingredients that were difficult for ordinary chefs to collect to improve his skills. His own calculation and use of ingredients also became more precise with in-depth research. Take it with a grain of salt!

 Eat meat in big mouths and drink soup in big mouths.

 Not even the dream mushroom was left, all turned into energy and entered Ji Xing's stomach.

 Getting up and doing a set of punches, his physical strength and telekinesis gradually increased. Ji Xing skillfully washed and scrubbed the pots and put everything in his inventory.

Ding~

Just as he was finishing this daily operation, a notification sound suddenly came from the information panel, and Ji Xing took out the communication crystal from the inventory.

This kind of communication crystal is obviously imprinted with divine characters, and Ji Xing can also make it.

  He activated the communication crystal and found that it was a group message from his 'president'.

Argo of Rats: "Latest information, a team of raiders has finally found the coordinates of the boss on the 50th floor, and the team is gathering on the 45th floor. As before, immediately contact the high-level players you are familiar with, such as advanced blacksmiths, tailors, chefs, etc. Careers can also choose to go to the 45th floor voluntarily!”

 The boss on the 50th floor?

Ji Xing has learned that it has been almost four months since players landed on the 50th floor. Compared with the previous average progress of one floor per month, just finding the boss on this 50th floor has been several times longer.

 Many people feel that the half-length of this 100-story mysterious tower may be unusual.

At this time, there was another ding, and a private chat request from Argo the Rat came.

“Ji Xing, where have you been to level up during this period? How come there’s no news at all?”

Ji Xing replied: "You don't know? It seems that the intelligence work is not done well enough."

"I'm investigating what you do, but I can't sell you a kel." Argo said angrily: "You have heard what I just said, right? If you plan to go to the 45th floor, come with me. You look too good. Now that you’re awake, I’m afraid some people will invite you, and you won’t be able to tell the difference between small-minded guys.”

"That's it." Ji Xing thought for a while and said: "I plan to go to the 45th floor, but I haven't seen the players in the strategy team yet. President, could you please report the situation of the boss remotely? The first one to enter the mysterious tower Boss, I’m quite interested.”

　　…That’s good, it saves me the trouble.”

 …

At the same time, the five Negishi Yoshiyuki who flew all the way out of the forest and teleported to the 45th floor met their friend who had sent them a message.

 As if he had left the fear of the 33rd floor behind at this moment, he calmly asked: "What's going on? Which guild found the boss?"

 “Arrow that shoots the sun.” His friend answered him and glanced at Wuzi: “New member?”

 “Well, Wuzi is one of our own.”

The friend nodded and took out a stack of photos from the inventory: "It's no wonder the Boss is so hard to find this time. He is not in a building, but has opened a venue like a competition ring deep in the bushes. .”

Looking at the photos one by one, Negishi Yoshiyuki’s expression was a bit strange: “This place... we seem to have been nearby?”

Several people in the team around him looked at each other and shook their heads with some impression. Their eyes were focused on the last photo, the two figures captured in the distance.

“There are humanoids, and they are very common humanoids. There are only two of them, and there are no monsters. It’s twice as difficult to find them. No wonder.”

Faintly appearing in the photo is a tall man with sunglasses and a meticulous expression. On his shoulders lies a relatively thinner man.

 Based on past experience, this is obviously a Boss combination.

Negishi Yoshiyuki's friend nodded and said: "The person who shot the arrow of the sun lost his investigation. These are a pair of brothers. The person on the shoulder is the elder brother, Toguro brother, and the one standing is the younger brother, Toguro brother!" "

"Brother Toguru?" Yoshiyuki Negishi observed carefully: "It looks... ordinary."
