slap slap...
It was the sound of blood dripping to the ground, and a mottled black and gray wolf lay powerlessly on the ground. Although it didn't die immediately, it was not far from death, and could even feel the breath of death. There is a huge wound on its stomach, the wound is so big that it almost cuts it in half. The blood and the intestines inside flowed all over the ground, flowing through the cracks in the pitch-black ground, and then dripped down a small slope to the bottom, so there was that kind of dripping sound.
In the gradually cloudy eyes of the warg, he met the figure of a man. He was clasping his master's throat with one hand, and lifted the usually strong master high. The warg couldn't understand how a person could have such great power.
That person was Albert. He looked at the knight and felt the scorching gaze in the other's eyes. It was full of anger, but there was no trace of fear.
"Foreign bastards!" Albert cursed, and at the same time he pressed his thumb and index finger hard, crushing the Asak man's cervical vertebrae, and then threw the corpse to the ground. Turning around, there were two corpses of wolf riders behind, and the corpses of seven or eight other ordinary soldiers. This is obviously a search party, and search parties like this are dwindling.
There was an eagle cry in the sky, and after a few circles above his head, a falcon suddenly swooped down and landed on Albert's shoulder. A small hollow wooden tube is attached to the falcon's leg. Pulling out the stopper of the wooden tube, a strip of paper rolled up slipped out. Open it, and there is only one sentence on it: He has entered the palate door.
Behind it is a simple map, with black lines marking Albert's forward route.
After reading it, Albert rubbed his hands together, turning the wooden tube and paper into powder.
The falcon soared into the sky and disappeared in an instant. When it turned into a black spot, Albert smiled, and quickly dived to the location indicated by the map, leaving the corpse behind him far away. Falcon and the information all came from that alien named Yin, and Albert was very happy to have such a person to serve him. But at the same time, he didn't intend to make this silver live too comfortably, so he deliberately left the communication terminal with Asmo in an obvious place.
When Yin appeared that night, Albert used the video recording function of the communication terminal to record the entire conversation between the two without any trace. When Ba Jin got the communication terminal, he watched from a distance. If Ba Jin doesn't know how to use this thing, then he can also use a small device to remotely control the terminal to turn it on. Afterwards, it is natural to be able to remotely control the terminal to explode.
Let some aliens know, but there is no direct evidence. This can lead to divisions among them, even civil war. Albert still knows how to use this little trick.
He had already calculated the time, and when he reached the so-called jaw door, it was also the time when there was almost internal strife. At that time, he will naturally chase after Zero, and Albert doesn't care about what kind of things will happen within the alien race because of his small means.
At the same time, Zero and his own team have entered the gate of the jaw. The cave behind the door is dimly lit, and the temperature is a few degrees lower than outside, and the temperature difference is quite obvious. And the further you go inside, the greater the humidity. After tens of meters away from the gate, you can feel the terrain gradually extending downward. The equipment that Hei Xiao prepared for them was quite sufficient, including searchlights and other functional tools. With Ling and their hands, seven or eight beams of light swept through the cave, illuminating the road ahead.
"It's almost close to the seam." Liya said, she activated the ability of mental scanning after entering the door of the palatine teeth, scanned the environment of the cave, and then transmitted the picture to the minds of a few people through the chain of mind .
There were tens of meters away from the crack in the ground that Hei Xiao had mentioned. At this moment, a lamppost hit the ground. There is a pair of alien beast skeletons, a humanoid skull can be seen, but there are four empty eye sockets on the head. The following skeleton is a bit strange, the upper body is human, and the lower body is like a snake with only one vertebrae. The bony leaf at the end is flat, like a caudal fin.
I don't know how many years this murloc-like skeleton has existed here. The skeleton has a pitch-black color, and it feels as hard as iron when knocked. And the part that is close to the ground is connected by some kind of fungus to the skeleton and the ground. And the further you go, the more and more skeletons there are, and the ground and the rock walls on both sides of the cave have traces of cutting with knives and axes, as if a battle took place.
Of course, this battle probably happened a long time ago. And judging from the orientation of the murloc skeletons, they came from the depths of the ground fissure, that is, the original residents of the Titan Hall in the abyss. Speaking of which, the Shadow Clan is also one of the original species of life in the Titan Hall, but they have opened up their wisdom and left the abyss before becoming a branch of the alien race on the black earth.
But now, God knows how many original species like this are left in the abyss.
Came to the seam in a blink of an eye.
The ground fissure is the end of the cave, and when you get here, the ground abruptly splits a huge hole. Zero took the searchlight and looked down, but couldn't see anything at all. On the nearby rock wall, you can also see several murloc skeletons nailed to death by long-handled weapons.
"Let's go." Zero said to everyone.
Jin and the others took off the waterproof backpack behind them, and took out rolls of safety ropes from it. Fix one end of the safety rope to the ground with a tool, and after testing the pulling force, throw the rope into the seam in the ground. All the people present are capable people, so there is no need to wear a safety harness like ordinary human climbers. After confirming that the rope could bear the force, Lingdang grabbed a rope and slid down, and the others followed suit.
Blade hunters are more convenient, they can climb anywhere, even a nearly 90-degree vertical mountain wall like a crack in the ground is not difficult for them. These biological weapons have gone all the way, and the loss is not too serious, there are still about ten of them. They are like huge geckos, nimbly following the zero-level people as guards, and at the same time swimming down quickly.
After a while, Zero shone down the control light attached to his body, and he could already see a piece of wet ground. The distance was only about ten meters, so he simply let go of the rope and jumped down. The ground is quite humid, and there are even puddles in some potholes. After several sounds of breaking through the air around them, Jin and the others also jumped to the ground. As for the safety ropes, they stayed where they were, and they were still important tools when they went back.
Jin went first with the light on, and after a few steps, the beam of light was cast on a piece of water. He froze for a moment, the beam of light swept back and forth, and found that there was a crypt lake all around, and their foothold happened to be on the shore of the lake. With Zero and their beams of light also hitting over, coupled with Liya's mental scan, an underground world appeared in their eyes.
The width of this lake is several hundred meters, and the shore of the lake is crescent-shaped. There are a few scattered ground platforms in the lake, which are formed by rock pillars at the bottom of the lake. The surface of the lake is calm and without waves, but there will be circles of ripples from time to time, and some water marks will pass by, obviously there is life under the water. It's just that I don't know if these lives are dangerous alien species, or harmless ordinary animals
"Hei Xiao said that the passage to the Titan Hall is under the lake. Jin and I will go down to find out the situation first. You can wait here first." Zero said, then put down the waterproof back, and then took off his coat , revealing close-fitting tactical uniforms. The same was true for Jin, and the two of them came to the lake and jumped into the water. The water quality of the lake was clear, and when the light shone, many small lake creatures flashed in the beam of light.
The ground lake is not deep, no more than five meters. The beam of light can reach the bottom of the lake, and shellfish can be seen in the lake. Zero looked around, and the aquatic organisms passing by in the beam of light were obviously different from those outside. In this closed environment, they seemed to have undergone an independent evolutionary revolution. Whether it is fish or shellfish, they are small in size, and the smallest shell among them is only the size of a fingernail.
In this era when all things are developing towards a huge body shape, the life in the earth lake is doing the opposite, which seems to be related to their living environment. It is true that a larger body can accommodate greater strength, and strength is the cornerstone of survival. But at the same time, a huge body also means that the consumption is equally huge. But in an environment like an underground lake, there is obviously not enough food for them to consume in large quantities.
Therefore, the size of life is developing towards miniaturization instead, reducing consumption, and sometimes it means living longer.
At this time, Jin gestured towards Ling, as if he had discovered something, and his lights were frequently directed to the left side of the front. Some dark caves could be seen faintly there, and Zero dived there, and the two of them swam for about ten minutes. I came to the end of the lake. There are many deep caves on the rock wall here. Even on the edge of these caves, no obvious changes in the water flow were found. This means that there is also a lake on the other side of the cave, and the water sources on both sides are connected. , so there is no flow of water.
The rock wall of the cave is covered with a layer of green bacteria, even if it has the mark that Black Owl said, it will be covered by green bacteria. The two had to work separately, tearing off the bacteria coat on the rock wall with their hands, exposing the natural rock wall below. It didn't take long for Zero to find the sign that Hei Xiao said. Above one of the caves, there is a pupil of darkness.
The moment he saw this pupil, Zero had a feeling of being watched, as if there was some creature staring at him from the other side of the pupil. But this feeling passed away, and Zero didn't care. He signaled in the water with a light that he had found the cave entrance, and the two returned to shore.
On the shore, Zero said to everyone: "I found it, but I don't know how long the cave is. But Hei Xiao didn't prepare diving equipment for us, so the length of the cave should be limited. You guys prepare it, and then we will go into the water together. "
The others took off their coats one after another, and Kaiton showed an ugly expression and said, "I won't accompany you there."
The wolf king Fenli obviously disliked water, so Zero didn't force it. He pointed at the safety rope and said with a smile, "That thing will help us look after it when we go back."
"Don't worry, if anything dares to approach, I will turn them all into ice sculptures."
Zero patted him on the shoulder, looked at everyone and said, "Then let's go."
The others nodded one after another, and then jumped into the water one by one, even those sharp-blade hunters slipped into the water quietly. Watching the beam of light on the lake go far away, Kaiton suddenly felt a little bored.
Before long, they had reached the end of the lake. He took a breath first, then dived, followed by everyone behind him, and then swam to the cave with the pupil of darkness mark before. The cave is spacious enough to accommodate two or three people abreast. Ling let Jin explore the way in front, then Alice and other women were in the middle, he himself fell behind, and the blade hunters scattered freely.
In a relatively limited space like a cave passage, the sharp-bladed hunters can move forward while grasping the surrounding rock walls, but their speed is much faster than zero. I don't know how long no one has passed through this passage, and it is covered with green bacteria and moss, which is very sticky and uncomfortable to the touch. Even the Blade Hunter didn't care, and other people, especially women, didn't even want to touch them.
After swimming for a while, Zero began to find something on the surrounding rock walls. It was a string of oval-shaped objects sticking close to each other on the rock wall. The surface was covered by green bacteria, and it was impossible to see what was inside. There are more and more things like this as you go in, it's like something's eggs. These strange things prevented the blade hunters from moving forward as quickly as before, and they had no choice but to continue diving in the water like Zero.
A hunter in the back stepped on the rock with both feet, trying to use his strength to return to the middle of the passage. The sharp claws on the feet stepped on some of the round objects, and immediately spit out a series of air bubbles from the broken bacterial coat, obviously there is air in these objects. The hunter didn't care, and continued to move forward. Then something came out from the cracked bacteria coat.
It's just that Ling and the others have already gone all the way, and in the dim light, there is the rustling sound of gnawing.
Export is in sight.
Jin had already seen the bright light in the distance, and he gestured a few times in the water with the searchlight in his hand, telling everyone that he was about to reach the exit. Then he turned around and swam faster, the team's movements also accelerated a lot, and the hunter who swam at the end seemed to have discovered something. It stopped, floated in the water and looked back. The hunter's skin felt the rush of water, but it was still now, so it shouldn't feel this way.
But this feeling is getting stronger and stronger, almost as if there is an army of aquarium approaching behind. The hunter couldn't make a warning sound in the water, so he had to stretch out his claws to catch the nearby rock wall. It's a pity that the place is also filled with eccentric things. Originally, it wanted to rub against the rock wall to make a sharp noise to convey the message, but this paw scratched a lot of round egg-like things.
There was a rush of bubbles, and then something came out of the cracked moss. The hunter looked, and through the afterglow of the light that hadn't disappeared in front, it saw a face like a human baby. It's just that this face is pitifully small, and there are four eyes on it. All eyes were still tightly closed. After the thing got out of the moss, it first smelled the surroundings, then opened its mouth, revealing a row of small and sharp teeth, and started to tear the moss.
Suddenly there was a pain in his foot, the hunter lowered his head, but a monster the size of a kitten was biting its leg. This thing also has a human-like face, upper body and hands. But the back of the waist looks like a fish's tail, and there are translucent soft fins growing on its back. The Blade Hunter slashed across the thing with its sharp claws, chopping it in half.
But without half of its body, the little monster didn't die. Instead, it bit more fiercely, and it tended to get into the thigh of a hunter. The hunter had to drive two claws into its body and lift it up. When it comes to looking carefully in front of you, this thing bites very hard. Four eyes were showing fierce light, and a mouth full of sharp teeth was biting all around. The hunter didn't notice that when the rear half of the thing sank to the bottom of the cave, it seemed to release too much blood.
The sound of the surging water was getting louder and louder, and finally it was deafening like a waterfall rushing down a mountain stream. From the hunter's eyes, the face of another little monster first appeared in the darkness, and then countless such monsters poured out from the cave passage behind. Each of them is small in size, only the size of a kitten. But there are so many of them, it's like a group of piranhas enveloping the blade hunters.
The hunter counterattacked, but its movements were greatly restricted in the water. In addition to the large number of these little mermaid-like monsters, within a short while, the hunter had already bitten off a large amount of flesh, while the little mermaid tore a hole into its eyes, mouth, and even directly on its body and then went inside. Drill away. They gnawed at the intestines and other organs in the hunter's body, swallowing everything they could eat.
A hunter was obviously not enough for them to eat, so these little mermaids started to swim towards the place where the beam of light swam in front.
When the hunter was attacked, Zero already felt that something was wrong. The sound of the huge water flow seemed so unusual, followed by the blood floating in the water, Zero stopped immediately. Whatever was behind that, he couldn't let these guys pass. Otherwise, the people in front will definitely be in a hurry. Although he thought so, when he saw a group of little mermaids appearing in the beam of light, Zero couldn't help frowning.
The little mermaids are fast, and they are like ghosts pouring out of hell. He only stretched out two small arms, opened his mouth full of sharp teeth, and his face was full of fierce eyes, and he swarmed towards Zero. It's a pity that Zero is not a sharp-edged hunter. His fingers were closed like knives, and he suddenly pulled them apart. While the water was turbulent, a golden ray of light flew across the sky.
At first it was just a thin streak, but in an instant it turned into a golden wave!
Jin Tao turned around and crashed into the school of fish. The burst of powerful energy caused the fish school in front to retreat uncontrollably, and then the golden light burst in the fish school, and the flames splashed in all directions, and the violent energy jets collided and exploded continuously, blowing up the front of the fish school. Because he was afraid of causing other accidents in the cave, Zero only used the eighth level of strength.
This is a reduced version of the fate break, but even so, it swallowed hundreds of these mermaids in an instant. The sound of the water flow subsided slightly, but soon, the sound started again, as if another wave of fish was approaching!
