Chapter 633: Chapter 218: Life Blooming, Miraculous Runes! [Analysis of this rune: No authorization (Current rank cannot analyze this rune, please continue to upgrade your rank to unlock authorization)]
"Huh?"
"Can runes really be analyzed?"
Cheng Ye’s pupils contracted slightly, almost unable to believe his eyes.
He immediately turned to look at another rune, and sure enough, another line of information popped up:
[Life Flourishing Rune: Can drive the biological life process forward in a specific direction, only effective inside the Cotton Room, affecting all creatures within; the effect immediately disappears upon leaving the Cotton Room]
[Analysis of this rune: No authorization (Current rank cannot...)]
"Mermaid transformation, life flourishing?"
Cheng Ye was stunned, his gaze returning to the beautiful mermaid dancing gracefully below.
Especially the golden mermaid that first led him in, now entwined with a blue male mermaid in a feverish dance, the scene was somewhat eye-catching.
But upon closer observation, he noticed the scales on the tails of the two fish people were rapidly peeling off, and each scale that fell to the ground was instantly absorbed by the Cotton Room’s surface.
Until the largest piece of scale detached from the root of the tail fin, the two mermaids suddenly let out a wail in unison and collapsed to the ground.
In the next moment, a crack slowly opened on the ground of the Cotton Room, swallowing them along with the scattered scales.
At the instant the crack closed, a barely noticeable ripple flashed, and the space of the Cotton Room seemed to expand slightly.
Though it wasn’t very clear, Cheng Ye replayed it once, focusing intently on the boundary, and indeed saw this change.
Just as he was pondering, the space shattered loudly, bringing him back into the truck laboratory.
A faint light flashed, and a replayable information panel appeared, with the same number of five times.
"Cotton Room..."
Cheng Ye frowned and reviewed the information screen once more.
The Collector’s analysis of this little golden fish was quite distinctive; it was clearly the weakest in strength among all the fish people, having danced wildly for only about five minutes before being stimulated to the end of its life, turning into nourishment for the Cotton Room.
"So, the Cotton Room is actually equivalent to the ’big stomach’ of a Demon Eye Sponge, its digestive organ?"
This speculation made Cheng Ye’s heart sink, "If I were to really enter its Cotton Room, wouldn’t I also be affected by the runes inside?"
If there were similar runes like "wild dance" or "transformation" in the Cotton Room of a Demon Eye Sponge, turning him into a fishman and losing control, he’d have nowhere to call for help.
He retreated to the trait panel, glanced at the remaining 50% charging value, and finally set his sights on the passage feature.
Now, only by understanding the role of this passage feature can the feasibility of entering the Cotton Room be determined.
"Extract trait, information direction, select direction: the utility of the passage feature!"
The scene shattered and reformed again.
To Cheng Ye’s surprise, the same sea area appeared once more.
A large gray-yellow fish was slowly approaching a blue sponge, unlocking the view just before it arrived.
Cheng Ye immediately paused the screen, carefully observing the fish’s form, its scales coated with a layer of blue pattern, exactly the same as the microbes parasitizing Luokuke’s battle armor before, with tiny tentacles on the surface.
And on the fish’s abdomen, a ghastly crack was seeping light red fluid.
As the patterned fish approached the giant eye, the eyeball indeed split open a gap for entry.
The gray-yellow fish swam in and instantly transformed into a human form, a middle-aged fishman!
The blue patterns extending from beneath the earlobes matched almost perfectly with those found on two human corpses discovered earlier, confirming that those unknown patterns were indeed passage features.
The middle-aged fishman, clutching at the wound on his chest, swam within the Cotton Room. Although affected by the fishman transformation, he was not influenced by the life flourishing rune and went straight to the corner of the Cotton Room.
As soon as he stood, the ground opened a devouring gap, and the middle-aged fishman jumped in.
Cheng Ye controlled the perspective to follow, discovering a hidden space behind the Cotton Room.
Similar to the cave occupied by the Demon Eye Sponge, there was also a space of about seven to eight hundred square meters behind the blue sponge. Several fish people were resting against the stone walls, their bodies glowing with a faint blue light.
Cheng Ye paused the screen, carefully searching for runes in the second-level space, quickly finding a new rune in the center of the stone wall.
[Life Energy Sharing Rune: Can form a life energy sharing link with specific creatures, allowing both parties to share life energy, only effective inside the Cotton Room; the effect disappears after leaving the Cotton Room]
The middle-aged fishman casually lay down on a vacant spot, his body emitting a blue glow.
Under Cheng Ye’s watch, the wound on his chest healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, fully recovering in little over ten minutes.
Then he left the Cotton Room, reverting to a large fish form. Not only had the wound vanished, but his size also seemed to have grown slightly larger.
The scene shattered, and the information ended.
"My guess was indeed correct! The passage feature is truly the key to entering the Cotton Room!"
Cheng Ye excitedly stood up, but before fully enjoying his excitement, a wave of trepidation clutched his heart.
This discovery was undoubtedly pushing him towards the Cotton Room of the Demon Eye Sponge.
But what runes might be inside the Cotton Room of the Demon Eye Sponge?
If the passage feature materializes into an item, can it still retain the effect of "immunity to rune influence"?
