The Record of Unusual Creatures

Chapter 1670: Raid the lair

Views:

A strong oscillation that lasted for more than five minutes erupted in the entire crystal column layer, followed by longer aftershocks and secondary disasters.

Amantir's interlayer hollow structure is like a natural resonance cavity. The impact generated by the collapse of the crystal column has produced the most terrifying crustal oscillation in history in this planet-level resonance cavity. The entire southern hemisphere of the planetary warship is like a big mouthful. It roared like a bell, and when viewed from space, one could see that the land of Amantir suddenly sank, and then this part of the depression bulged up as if it had elasticity—it was because the starship's armor restorer couldn't bear it. A kind of tearing from the inside and wrong operation led to—the entire land began to ripple, folds and twists, mountains up to several kilometers formed and then disappeared in just a few minutes, water boiled and was thrown into the atmosphere, and in a very short time A large storm that spread to a quarter of the planet was triggered within a short period of time: If there is a planetary-level mortal civilization on this planet, then in this short ten minutes, this civilization has already regressed back to the Iron Age, and even worse.

And what happened below the ground was even more terrifying.

Although Hao Ren's enthusiasm for doing things is unprecedentedly high, he still has to admit at this moment that standing next to a pillar supporting the earth's crust and blowing the pillar down is such an exciting experience that he never wants to do it again: After a series of precisely calculated chain explosions, the column was cut into two sections, and then it was naturally dislocated and collapsed under the pressure of the heavy earth's crust. Countless boulders and crystal fragments the size of hills fell from the sky like a torrential rain. The crystal forest in the crystal pillar layer was smashed into ruins, and the ensuing gusts and sound waves crushed the ruins into finer powder.

Then he heard a horrible creak from the rock dome above, accompanied by a series of explosions and an electric arc bright enough to light up the entire rock dome, where the armor resetter near the equator had completely melted in the overload sign.

The energy barrier used to seal the equatorial rift also failed. Hundreds of millions of tons of magma and earth rocks spewed out from the damaged area, and fell towards the center of the earth under the action of gravity. The entire crystal column layer was instantly hot.

In the blink of an eye, the space in the crystal column layer, which was barely considered peaceful and peaceful, became a purgatory. The sound waves and air currents that could tear apart rocks, the high temperature of molten gold and wrought iron, and all kinds of toxic substances that were produced in an instant all came out in one go. When this scene When it happened, the goblins who were yelling "make trouble, make trouble, make trouble" suddenly fell silent for a few seconds, and then Hao Ren's ears were filled with their babble: "Wow, this place is going to die!" I'm going to die!" "I didn't expect it to be this movement!" "It's not fun at all, it's not fun at all, it's not at all..." "I'm going to die, I'm going to die!!"

Dare these little things never have imagined what it would be like when the crystal pillar was blown down before they made troubles

When the shock wave came, energy shields lit up around Hao Ren and his friends. Because they knew that blowing up the crystal pillars was an extremely crazy move, everyone not only put on life-support collars in advance, but also equipped them with Shield generators and vector attitude stabilization devices, these advanced equipment helped them resist the deadly environment of the underground space and allowed them to stabilize their bodies in the shock wave. Now it seems that these preparations are quite effective.

Vivian was the calmest one besides Hao Ren. She raised her head and stared unblinkingly at the rocky dome on the top of the crystal pillar, which was constantly shaking and cracking. Finally, she saw something popping out of the dome. A ray of red light, and the red light carried a palpitating madness.

"The passage is open!" she cried. "Now, let's rush in!"

Hao Ren grabbed the data terminal and stuffed it into his pocket, then activated the propulsion device, rushed straight to the crack on the dome, and at the same time turned his head and shouted: "Lily!"

"It's been prepared a long time ago!" The husky girl yelled and took out the snacks she was carrying from her pocket, tore open the package and poured it into her mouth. Most of the package of spicy sticks was chewed and swallowed by her. In the belly, in the next second, her eyes glowed with a golden light that was about to turn into a beast, and veins spread along her arms and neck, "I will suppress it for two minutes—the task of controlling the flight will be left to you, Landlord! "

Not everyone is born with the ability to fly like Vivienne, so everyone who can't fly is equipped with a propulsion device provided by Hao Ren, but Lily's propulsion device is controlled by Hao Ren: because she is receiving It will be difficult to control yourself in a short period of time.

Among the boulders and crystal fragments falling like a torrential rain, Hao Ren's team charged against the direction of the dome's collapse. The dark red cracks on the dome quickly enlarged in front of his eyes. Hao Ren felt that he was unprecedentedly calm at this moment. The hesitation and nervousness disappeared, and there was only the ominous opening in front of him, like the door of hell. In this state, he even felt that the passage of time slowed down, and every particle of light passing by around him Dust becomes clearly visible.

This illusion lasted only a few seconds, and the next moment, he had already rushed into the gap and passed through a layer of dark red light film that seemed to be real.

At the moment of passing through the light film, everyone can clearly feel the changes in the surrounding environment. The inside and outside of the light film seem to be two interconnected but distinct spaces. Although it is impossible to accurately tell the difference between the two spaces, But the feeling of "stepping through the gate" was unmistakable.

They entered the interior of the Nightmare Lair, a place where illusion and reality overlap, where time and space are jumbled.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"

A loud howl interrupted everyone's sense of trance after passing through the space. Lily lifted the restriction on her own strength the moment she passed through the crack. Strutting out from a cloud of smoke and dust, and at the same time as she appeared, a white light with powerful energy began to escape from her mouth.

The giant husky glanced around casually, then opened its mouth wide in a certain direction: "Roar—"

Accompanied by a strange sound of "hum", the air was shaken layer by layer, and the thick white light cannon illuminated the entire space, lasing towards the black shadow in the distance.

This is the first step that was discussed before: Lily suffocates enough energy before entering the arena, transforms instantly after entering the arena, and then shoots a dog cannon at the place with the strongest energy response: as the current moment in Hao Ren's team, The most lethal blow, the dog cannon is the opening song of this offensive operation.

And with the instant bright light of the white light cannon, this dark and oppressive space was completely illuminated at once, and Hao Ren quickly saw clearly the scene in the nightmare lair in this startling glimpse.

He didn't throw up, but almost.

In that fleeting glimpse, he saw that the so-called Nightmare Lair was not a stronghold of rock and metal as he had imagined, but more like... a gigantic wriggling organ.

Flesh and flesh filled the field of vision. The inner wall of the entire space was a layer of living biological tissue. Countless thick things like blood vessels spread and grew under the wriggling skin, while things like nerve threads and muscle bundles were exposed. Come out, the dome of this giant cave is intertwined into a big net, behind the big net, you can still vaguely see the remaining mechanical structure: that is the base of the control center, part of which has been swallowed by this nightmare lair .

This scene is like being in the stomach of a giant beast.

But these biological tissues are not the only ones here. Among the disgusting flesh and blood, Hao Ren still saw traces of other substances: Thick stone pillars, metal beams and crystal clusters grew irregularly in this vast space. It has been distorted and corrupted by the power of the Lord of Madness into a weird appearance, but it can still be vaguely seen that it was originally part of the underground facility of Amantiel.

Hao Ren also saw the goal of this operation:

Lily's perception was accurate. After entering the arena, she fired a light cannon straight at the center of the nightmare lair, where there was a huge round table raised high, and the space above the round table showed signs of distortion. , Layers upon layers of translucent barriers make it look as if there is a layer of water swaying there, and behind the layers of barriers is a huge brain tissue suspended in mid-air.

It is as huge as a house!

This huge brain is hanging upside down tens of meters above the round table, expanding and shrinking regularly, while a large number of nerve lines and blood vessels extend from above it, like a pipe connecting to the dome of the nightmare lair—see Looking at the direction where the nerves and blood vessels disappeared, the first thing Hao Ren thought of was the Amantir crystal.

Sure enough, as the goblins said, the monsters in the nightmare lair have been connected to the Amantir crystal, and they are directly connected by nerve lines. If he really led the team to touch the crystal...

It's the end of Te Niang's book!

Lily's dog cannon destroyed a large number of stone pillars and clusters along the way, but as expected, this raid did not solve the biggest problem in the nightmare lair once and for all, the upside-down brain tissue surrounded by hundreds of layers of energy shield , the powerful divine light cannon just broke through a few layers before it could not continue, turning into pure energy and dissipating in the air.

And the brain tissue behind the barrier trembled violently: it began to feel the crisis in its sleep.

"Ouch..." Nangong Wuyue was taken aback by the disgusting sight in the nightmare lair, she immediately opened a water mist barrier, and forcibly dispelled the mental shock brought by the surrounding environment with the soothing and purifying effect of the water element. "What the hell is this place!"

"Amantir is transforming into a living flesh and blood creature, and the Nightmare Lair is the brain of this creature!" The data terminal screamed, "We must destroy that thing immediately!"

"I don't need you to tell me!" Hao Ren had already pulled out his long gun and rushed forward with a grim expression, "Everyone follow me!"

Nangong Sanba also roared angrily: "Full firepower! Clean up this place before we spit it out!"
