The Record of Unusual Creatures

Chapter 382: Come get big

Views:

Bursts of loud noises came from the direction of the Twisted Woodland, which sounded like roars, like thunder, or simply cracking the ground. The loud noises seemed to be chasing behind the team as if they had experienced many battles. The elite soldiers were also terrified in the center of this roar, and could only desperately flee forward along the mountain road.

Everyone got off their horses and walked. They drove the military horses to the front of the team or simply dispersed them when they encountered a fork in the mountain road. Probably not surprised.

Even though the roots of the Twisted Woodland have been separated, the ground under everyone's feet is still trembling. The entire Beinz area is built on a large-scale underground world. Now this underground world has collapsed, and the huge power generated is almost It is necessary to tear the Longji Mountains into several sections. Hearing the sound of cracking rocks from the surrounding mountain walls, Ofra knew that she had not yet reached a safe place, so she swung her sword again to encourage her soldiers: "Keep going! Don't stop! You will be safe after crossing the ridge!"

Elson ran in front of the team, using the sharp eyes of a wolf to keep an eye out for any nearby rock avalanches, because every rock that fell here might turn into a stone giant, and in this place far away from the Twisted Woodland, Stone giants can't distinguish between friend and foe. They are as dangerous as those beasts and tentacles. Once encountered, the consequences will be unimaginable.

During the final evacuation, many soldiers were injured, almost all magicians were exhausted, and many people were infected by the poisonous blood and miasma of the horror beasts. Now these people can be said to have no combat power except for the strength to travel. Apart from Hao Ren and Ophra, there are only 5+1 giant wolves including Elson left who can still fight. They must try their best to avoid any battles on the road.

Although the situation is not good, Ofra's expression is still determined, her dusty face is as heroic as ever, she knows that the Knights of the Kingdom are waiting at the foot of the mountain on the east side of the mountain, as long as they get there, there will be enough medicine and food , It can also restore the combat effectiveness of the exhausted mages. Against supernatural beings like the Firstborn, mages are more useful than fighters.

But let's be honest. She was also very aware of the gap between mortals and ancient creatures, and thought of the terrifying monster that had been entrenched underground for thousands of years in the Beinz parish. She didn't believe that ordinary magicians could have any effect at all.

Hao Ren glanced at Ophra beside him, then turned to look at Y'zaks: "How is the preparation of the meteorite going?"

"The connection has been established, the quality is the limit I can control, manganese iron core," Y'zaks's eyes flashed with green demon fire, "we can summon it when we reach the ridge, the power is about the same Enough to completely blow up the area from the Beinz Blood Lake all the way to the middle of the Dragon's Back Mountains... six Tunguska."

Hao Ren did some calculations. Finding that this has far exceeded the power of nuclear weapons made by humans, I feel a little more at ease: this should be able to kill the eldest son, right

"Pay attention to controlling the power," Vivian suddenly thought of something, "on the west side of Beinz Blood Lake, after crossing the poisonous plain is the werewolf country, don't spread it there."

Izaks nodded: "I have calculated, I will set up a layer of magic energy barrier, the shock wave will stop in the middle of the poisonous plain, at most it will cause a little vibration on the holy mountain of the werewolf. But I don't know the werewolf tribe What is China's response to this disaster. They should also be able to see the changes in the distorted woodland... "

Hao Ren was really worried about this, and Wolf General Elson and his elite werewolves were probably even more worried about the situation in their hometown, but now the situation forced them. It is impossible for ordinary people to go to the holy mountain to report or investigate the situation even if they have great abilities, so everyone had to suppress this worry for the time being. As long as Y'zaks' meteorite can successfully kill the eldest son. There is no need to worry about the werewolf tribal country.

"If the meteorite doesn't work... Is the power of 'Eldest Son' enough to destroy the holy mountain? Or spread to farther places..." Yizaks frowned suddenly, he thought of the worst scenario, "We don't know it yet What about other forces, I only know that it can cause geological disasters, but this should not be its full power."

Nangong Wuyue couldn't believe that the "eldest son" would be so powerful: "Isn't it? No matter how powerful it is, isn't it still a tree?"

Y'zaks shook his head and said nothing.

After some trekking, the team finally approached the highest point of the mountain ridge. At this moment, there was a sudden sound of collapse from the direction of several peaks in the Longji Mountain Range, and Lily subconsciously looked up. Suddenly let out an exclamation: "Aww—"

Then came Elson's voice: "The North Peak has collapsed! Both the North and South Peaks have collapsed!"

Hao Ren looked up in horror, only to see that the two highest peaks in the north and south of the Longji Mountains were completely covered by a puff of smoke. Under the hazy smoke and dust, it can be seen that those mountain peaks are slowly disintegrating at a speed visible to the naked eye. Vivienne released a little bat to watch this scene from a high altitude, and was shocked to find that 70% of the entire western foot of the Longji Mountain Range was decomposing!

She told everyone what she saw, and Ofra was dumbfounded: "Could this mountain range be made up of stone giants?!"

"No, probably not. At least the mountain road under our feet hasn't collapsed yet. Fortunately, it hasn't collapsed yet," Hao Ren took a breath, "But this mountain range is 100% dedicated to defending against the 'Eldest Son', and I know why The terrain of Beinz Parish is so strange, with mountains on both sides and the sea on one end, backed by a canyon, it must not have been formed naturally, it is just like the legends, it was all man-made by the ancient magic emperor!"

Becky's hand holding the long sword was a little trembling: "They can shape the world, but they still can't stop the eldest son..."

That's right, the entire Beinz Parish is a cage shaped by great power. The power of the ancient magic emperor is already terrifying, but isn't the ancient civilization still destroyed by the eldest son

The army of stone giants that fell from the Dragon's Back Mountains quickly formed a wave of gray stones and rushed towards the Twisted Woodland, but these huge monsters that used to look huge finally looked as small as ants in front of the Twisted Woodland: the Twisted Woodland is now completely It bulged and turned into a half-bowl-shaped weird thing. Countless huge, creeping tentacles waved on the surface of this aggregate. With sharp black armor thorns, this monster bigger than a mountain didn't even care about the gray tide of the stone giant under its feet. It just shook its body slightly, and the surrounding ground collapsed into an endless pit, and the stone giant fell After going down, it fell on the big net made of intertwined roots, and lost its vitality in an instant. Turned into lifeless gravel.

But more stone giants are still flocking to the "eldest son", it seems that their original intention is to turn into wreckage and pile up around the eldest son. It's like forming a new rock crust.

Hao Ren and the others had reached the ridge at this time. When everyone looked back, what they saw was a terrifying monster that had surpassed the limits of human imagination, and would lose all resistance in fear just by looking at it.

A tangled and indescribable combination stands between the sky and the earth, between plants and animals, it is as huge as a mountain, without any facial features or identifiable limbs, countless grotesque tentacles in its hundreds of kilometers wide Waving on the torso. The ground under its "feet" has completely disintegrated, and it is not known whether it fell into the original underground cave or was absorbed by those roots. Now there are only endless tree roots and weird tumor-like objects under the feet of this group. It looks even scarier.

Hao Ren just glanced at the ball and felt dizzy for a while: it was obvious that the tentacles with mental attack power were releasing energy to the surroundings indiscriminately.

"Even if you escape...is there really anyone in this world who can fight against this creature..." Ofra's always calm face finally showed a look of fear. She realized that today's escape might just be a delayed one. Death penalty—Since this creature called "the eldest son" has the ability to destroy the second season's ecological circle, it must not stay in this place. This monster must have the ability to move or spread its power to other places in the world, Under this premise. What is the point of fleeing today

Hao Ren looked at the chaotic creature, and through multiple detections by the data terminal, he confirmed that he could not communicate with this monster. So he patted Y'zaks' arm: "Do it."

Y'zaks nodded, walked away from the crowd and began to transform. Ofra looked at these strange "mercenaries" in surprise: "What are you guys doing?"

"Help you solve the things you can't solve," Hao Ren breathed out, "You can watch from the side—but if possible, can you let your soldiers leave first?"

It's not that I'm worried about anything else, the main thing is that ordinary people can't stand the toxic steam after the meteorite impact, and it's safe to leave the ridge.

Ophra looked at Hao Ren inexplicably, and suddenly felt an extremely disturbing power emanating from that big man. She immediately thought of something, and waved to her soldiers: "Keep going. Don't look back! "

After all the soldiers left, Y'zaks' power was finally fully released. Amidst the scorching and pungent smell of lava and sulfur, a gigantic five-meter-high demon stood up from the flames.

"Evil... demons?" Ophra was dumbfounded, "There are still demons walking in this world?! What is your origin?!"

Y'zaks raised a finger to the sky, channeling the powerful meteorite magic, and at the same time turned his head and sprayed sparks at Ophra: "I'll explain to you when I have a chance, little girl, remember to stand still later!"

An abnormal fire cloud quickly gathered in the sky, and the huge magic power that was so powerful that the sky would change drastically gathered in the center of the fire cloud. The demon standing on the top of the mountain guiding magic, the distorted sky, and the huge twisted and weird "eldest son" under it all, this scene made a heroine like Ophra feel trembling all over, and Becky murmured Talking to myself: "... I am finally qualified to be hung on the wall... Grandpa, did you see that your granddaughter has also completed the epic mission..."

The "eldest son" under the fire cloud seemed to sense some kind of danger. There were some openings at the top of it, and several huge tentacles protruded out. Seeing this, Hao Ren yelled, "It's now!"

There was a loud bang, and a space door suddenly opened in the center of the fire cloud. This time, Yizaks did not let the meteorite appear in the upper atmosphere, but opened the door directly above the target's head, allowing the meteorite to travel in space at its original speed. When he smashed it down, he had only one goal: the more powerful the better!

A meteorite as huge as a hill appeared in the space door, and when it came into contact with the surrounding air, it was enveloped in a layer of red light. With Hao Ren's eyesight, he could barely see the appearance of this super high-speed space bomb. It can be seen that its speed is fast.

But at the same moment, the space at the top of the "Eldest Son" twisted abnormally, and the meteorite actually stopped at high altitude.

There was no movement, no explosion, as if the movie film was stuck, the huge manganese-iron core meteorite came out of the space door, and suddenly stopped in mid-air. Then it floated up and down slightly.

The space above the "eldest son" rippled in circles, and the data terminal sensed it. There was a scream: "A big X lying down! The anti-gravity field and the kinetic energy neutralize the force field!"

Nangong Wuyue jumped up on the spot: "Is this still a tree!"

The data terminal yelled, "This was never a tree!"

The "Eldest Son" easily stopped the meteorite with insufficient technical content. Its exposed tentacles swayed in the air for a while, and suddenly pointed neatly at the meteorite. A strong light was emitted from the end of each tentacles. The meteorite at the core disintegrated directly into pieces under the strong light.

The "eldest son" was unharmed!

Everyone on the ridge stared dumbfounded at all this, Y'zaks fell into a short-term stupor, and at this moment. Vivian suddenly discovered that the surroundings of the "eldest son" had changed again:

The surface of the huge combined organism began to ooze red streams, which were exactly the kind of thick bloody water that everyone had seen in the cave pool before. A pool of water formed around it, and then grew at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The "water" pool surged and slowly expanded in all directions, and the rocks and trees were swallowed and assimilated the moment they touched it.

No matter whether there is life or not, it seems to be the nutrient of this red liquid, and it begins to spread at a terrifying speed!

The young nun among the four ascetic monks suddenly remembered that she had also collected a bottle of "water samples" before, and suddenly let out an exclamation. She hurriedly took out the water bottle from her body, and she saw that the red water inside was crazily surging and corroding the crystal bottle, so she hurriedly threw the crystal bottle out with all her strength.

The crystal bottle shattered on the rock. The liquid inside spilled out, and immediately after the liquid touched the surrounding rocks and soil, it began to surge like rain after a long drought. Almost in the blink of an eye, it grew into a ball of plasma the size of a washbasin, and then rushed along the rock to the body of the "eldest son", and continued to grow rapidly while flowing downward.

Betsy suddenly remembered the legends about the goddess' destruction that she had read in various storybooks: the goddess threw her wine glass to the earth, and the red wine in the glass spilled out, spreading on the earth, burning a sea of fire that reached the sky, and the sea of fire continued for several days. Absolutely, everything in the world turns into coke...

What it describes is not a sea of fire at all, but these things in front of you!

This is how the Firstborn really attacks. Its tentacles may destroy a Legion. A scorching beam may shatter a mountain, but it will reshape an entire ecosystem. What it needs are more terrifying weapons - those red liquids are its most powerful weapons. These liquids will proliferate indefinitely, devouring all the basic elements that can make up organic matter—including ready-made life and dead things without life. This engulfment and multiplication will increase exponentially, and no force in this world can prevent them from covering the entire planet. The ancient magic civilization back then was indeed powerful, but in the face of this disaster, there was no way to fight back. If it wasn't for the safety device left by the goddess at the last moment to lock down the physiological activities of the "eldest son", this planet would not have lasted for ten thousand years. After today!

As the first batch of creatures conceived from the "first seed", the eldest son has the ability to simulate the "blood tide", probably these red liquids are imitating the blood tide.

But at this time, it is not important to study what it is simulating, what is important is what can kill it!

"It's gone." Hao Ren turned his head to look at the pale-faced four ascetics and Ophra, and suddenly patted his data terminal hard, "So can the backup plan I discussed with you be used? Hurry up and give me an accurate answer! "

As early as last night, when Hao Ren and Yizaks were discussing the summoning of the Meteorite Dafa, the two had considered the worst-case scenario: What if the Meteorite doesn't work? Although in theory Y'zaks' ult is already more powerful than nuclear weapons, they really dare not put all their hopes on a meteorite for no other reason—the ancient magic civilization is not necessarily stronger than Y'zaks' hometown. The force value over there is low!

Ancient magic civilization already possessed spaceflight capabilities, could establish civil-level portals between the earth and the moon, could establish colonial cities on alien planets, and could even research taboo technologies such as artificial life. All fields such as science, technology, and chemistry are completely beyond the current Earth. Even nuclear weapons may not be cutting-edge technology for them, and even meteorites can hit them.

But even such a super-advanced magic civilization was wiped out by the "eldest son" even the human and ecological circles. According to historical records, there is no way to fight back.

So from the very beginning, Hao Ren had considered a backup plan after the meteorite failed, but this backup plan was the last resort when there was no other way, and even if he wanted to use it, he had to think carefully.

The data terminal was silent for a long time this time, and finally asked in an electronically synthesized voice without emotion: "You have to think about it carefully, it is written in the instruction manual of that thing-launching on the surface of the planet is strictly prohibited!"

"I know, I've read all the safety regulations, and I know that the reason why launching to the ground is actually prohibited is because it will cause regional ecocide, and it will burn half of the country to glass at once," Hao Ren pointed to the continuous release The eldest son of Tide of Blood (suspected) jumped on his feet and yelled, "But now this place is going to be ecologically extinct, okay! Let's have a shot!"

The data terminal pondered for a few seconds before bouncing up and down slightly: "It has been submitted to the main data network, and the review has passed, but if any casualties beyond the calculation occur, we both have to bear the responsibility-this is a fucking big responsibility! Regional ecology Extermination is enough to be shot, you must not hit the werewolf's hometown! And this is an act that exceeds the safety protocol, it must be controlled manually, do you understand, manual control!"

Hao Ren took a deep breath: "I have finished reading the introduction to small starship gunnery."

"… you sure?"

"... read at least the first half of the book."

"Nimma... Concentrate, this machine uses you as a springboard to pull the Giant Turtle Rock into this world. But it can only fire one shot, psionic interference is very powerful, we still use the emergency connection here, after one shot you They will probably all have to be ejected from this world, at least one month after the next connection."

Becky watched Hao Ren argue and discuss with her own data terminal for a long time. She couldn't understand a single word, and finally couldn't help asking: "Then what... what are you talking about?"

Hao Ren took a deep breath and looked towards the sky:

"The cannons are used to bomb his mother, and the orbital support is used to defend the four directions... Inspector Hao Ren, apply for an orbital bombing of the star!"

Betsy's face was blank: "... what?!"

(Working in the afternoon, there should be no time to update, so I merged the two chapters together and sent them out! In addition, happy new year everyone~~~) (to be continued~^~)
