Y'zaks pulled his head out of the upper wall of the pipe with a bang, bringing down a piece of metal debris and stones, and he spat out these things: "I don't want to fight in this kind of place, it's easy to accidentally blow the whole thing away. The tunnel collapsed."
Uruk turned his head to look at the super big man with a strange expression, and found that the latter was almost squatting at this time: "Can you still fight like this?"
Nangong Wuyue snorted: "Don't underestimate the big guy, let alone squatting, he can beat everyone here even if he is lying on his stomach."
Hao Ren waved his hand: "Stop muttering, be careful around you."
That burst of mechanical sound came from a branch pipe on the left, but everyone took precautions but did not find any enemies appearing. From the sound, it seemed that some transmission devices were only in operation. Nangong Sanba took a cautious look at it, then waved to everyone: "There is a gate over here!"
Everyone hurriedly followed and saw a brighter light at the end of the pipe, and the mechanical sound came from that direction. This appears to be an exit.
After confirming that there was no agency ambush, Hao Ren walked ahead holding the shield and leading the team out of the long tunnel. Everyone got out of a circular gate, and then found themselves in an unusually wide and tall corridor. This corridor is square, majestic and grand, with a width of more than ten meters and a height of more than ten meters. Looking up, it almost makes people feel dizzy. The corridor is brightly lit, and the walls are made of some kind of off-white metal, and exposed rocks can be seen where the metal is not covered—this seems to be a place that has not been completely completed.
Y'zaks moved his arms, coming out of the narrow and cramped pipe made him feel good: "Finally, I don't have to hold back... Uh, but this place is a bit too wide."
This huge corridor is obviously not prepared for creatures of the size of humans. Hao Ren suddenly remembered the giants he found on the planet Io - he knew very well that the brain monsters were the result of the mutation of such giants. But the brain monster has lost its body, does it still need to live in a lair of this size
Uruk stared at the scene in front of him, dumbfounded: "Holy mountain...there is such a thing in the depths of the holy mountain?!"
"I'm afraid it was there before you came here." Vivienne glanced at Uruk, "I can understand your feelings. In a sense, the brain monster and his servants should be in this place." Aboriginal people, you just moved here thousands of years ago."
Uruk waved his hand. Obviously he didn't want to talk about it. Ophra gave orders to the knights around her: "You guys, go to the front to investigate and return within a moment. The others rest here for a while and wait for the follow-up soldiers to arrive before acting. The situation here is unknown, so we'd better not Going in too fast."
Hao Ren agreed with Ofra's arrangement, but the scale of the underground fortress made him feel anxious. He held up the data terminal and took photos everywhere. Seeing this, Lily asked curiously: "What are you doing?"
"The space here is astonishingly large," Hao Ren looked at the results fed back from the data terminal. Although the strong energy interference in the mountain made the terminal's accuracy drop, the latter still got some data as it went deeper. There is a giant void a few hundred meters away... its boundaries cannot be reached."
Lily stuck out her tongue: "Isn't this mountain empty?"
Hao Ren just wanted to say something. Suddenly, there was a burst of shouting and the sound of weapons clashing from the end of the corridor. The few kingdom knights who went to check the situation before retreated from the corner of the corridor, and the one who fought them was the combination monster that they saw on the ground before!
When Ophra saw this situation, she drew her sword and stepped forward without saying a word. The long sword of the knight was burning with raging holy flames. The figure of the female marshal flashed in the air like a phantom. Burned to ashes by the Holy Flame. The few rescued knights reported loudly before they had time to catch their breath: "Many monsters are coming out of various gates ahead, and they seem to be blocking this place!"
As soon as the knight's voice fell, there was a piercing sound in the corridor, followed by bursts of mechanical friction sounds from all corners in the distance, which sounded like the movement of more mechanical doors opening. Everyone immediately understood what was going on: the controller of the base sounded the alarm. And start unleashing those stitched monsters to stop the invaders.
The piercing sirens sounded one after another, and the defense system of the entire underground fortress was activated, and quickly locked the invaded location. The gates were slowly lowered, and the attack exits arranged in various corridors were opened one after another, and a large number of monsters were stitched together. Roaring, it rushed out of a bio-modification factory hidden deep underground. At the same time that these defense systems were activated, a voice came from the pipeline from behind everyone: The follow-up cavalry troops finally arrived.
"It's just in time," Ofra nodded to Elson who was the first to jump out of the gate, "It seems that the defense here has been activated, and all we have left is to rush in. Bring your people. Follow I come."
In fact, Hao Ren was not surprised by the triggering of the defense system, because it was an inevitable thing: it is impossible for the brain monster with spiritual power not to sense someone invading his territory. The only thing he wondered was why the siren didn't sound until now. The sluggish reaction of that brain monster made him feel incredible. In his prediction, everyone should have received a fierce counterattack when they entered the underground fortress—— The counterattack was delayed until this time.
"Terminal, navigate as much as possible," Hao Ren temporarily put aside his doubts, and casually threw the data terminal into the air, "Take us to the depths."
The data terminal wouldn't talk nonsense in this situation, it let out a roar, and then rushed forward.
Everyone immediately followed the fast-moving blue light. The knights raised their swords, the mages were surrounded by the brilliance of magic energy, and the priests held up the sacred objects and the Bible. The "purification force" who moved down ignored the weird and weird environment of the alien base around them, put all doubts behind them, and charged towards the end of the corridor blocked by monsters.
The data terminal tried its best to eliminate the ubiquitous energy interference in the fortress, tried its best to draw a road map leading to the depths of the cave, and led the team to quickly rush through the gates blocked by monsters and the main passages blocked by gates. Sometimes there will be some deviations in its navigation: some kind of automatic system in this fortress seems to be aware of the existence of the data terminal, and it is consciously using strong interference to influence everyone's route, but this deviation is very difficult for Hao Ren's group. For guys who have long been accustomed to brute force, it doesn't seem to have much effect: when they see a thick wall in front of them, and the way ahead is on the opposite side, they won't find the way at all—
Elizabeth held up a super hell lava ball that was twice bigger than her whole body, and threw it bang, once it exploded, the wall disappeared.
That's right, the only way for Hao Ren and his friends to navigate the maze is to find a direction and blast through it all the way, they don't care about the gates and obstacles.
As time went by, more backup soldiers invaded this place through several tunnels. Ofra ordered the new soldiers to divide into several groups to sweep up those stitch monsters, and at the same time relieve the pressure on the main force. Soon, this The underground fortress was full of explosions and shouts of killing. However, the other troops did not have the advancing speed of Hao Ren's group of explosive madmen, so most of them stopped in the outer corridor area blocked by layers of alloy gates. In the end, only Hao Ren's wave broke into the core of the fortress.
Monsters kept coming out of various corners, and the knights formed a defensive line on both wings to resist these monsters and ensure that the long-range occupations in the team could maintain the rhythm of indiscriminate bombing and advance quickly. And Elsa and Nangong Wuyue, as powerful healers and enchanters, constantly heal the wounds on the knight and dispel the poisonous stench brought by the stitch monster. Looking at the way Yzaks and his daughter bombed and blasted to clear the way ahead, they couldn't help but feel a little worried: "What if the holy mountain is blown down?"
"Do you think the Brain Monster dug such a big hole in the holy mountain, wouldn't it know how to reinforce the outer frame?" Hao Ren replied loudly amidst the explosion, "The holy mountain has stood so hollow for thousands of years, it doesn't It will collapse!"
As soon as his words fell, there was a loud "bang" from under the feet of the crowd, as if the sky and the earth were collapsing, shaking the mountains in an instant.
"Landlord, your mouth..." Lily yelled suddenly.
Hao Ren was also taken aback, but soon he realized that the movement was wrong: "Wait a minute, it's not a mountain collapsing! It doesn't sound like an earthquake..."
The loud bang only lasted for a few seconds, and the vibration around everyone quickly calmed down, but after a while, a similar vibration and loud noise came again!
Just like what Hao Ren said, this movement does not seem like the holy mountain is about to collapse, but it is by no means a good sign!
The roar of stitch monsters came from the front. Hao Ren saw that there seemed to be a problem with a heavy gate at the end of the corridor, which was dangling and unable to close. He immediately raised his spear and strode forward: "Hurry up!"
After passing through several gates and corners, the surrounding space became more and more spacious, making one wonder if the entire main peak of the holy mountain had been hollowed out, and the weird vibrating sound continued It kept ringing regularly, and it sounded as if some kind of super huge equipment was warming up and preparing to start. A thought suddenly flashed in Hao Ren's mind, and almost at the same time as the thought flashed, he found that the corridor had come to an end.
At the end of the corridor was a platform suspended in the air. In front of everyone was a huge and shocking cave in the mountain, and the thing in the center of the cave was jaw-dropping.
Hao Ren knew what the brain monster had been doing for thousands or even tens of thousands of years in the holy mountain.
"He's repairing this spaceship..." Lily raised her head and said in a daze, "It's fixed..."
"Go" also looked up, and simply formed a small ball at Hao Ren's feet: "I'm going to die, meow!" (To be continued~^~)
