The insect swarm was attracted by the highly toxic source matter and spiritual energy. The sound of their flapping wings was extremely harsh and penetrated directly into the human heart, making it difficult for people to think peacefully. The black energy they brought with them was even more poisonous and could easily kill them.
It causes skin ulcers.
If the special forces and the Psychic Church hadn't already worn gas masks and applied skin coatings, ninety percent of the team would have died in just such an impact.
"What bug?"
The captain reached out and grabbed an insect. It was a strange insect that resembled a fusion of a moth and a dragonfly. Its surface was covered with uneven gray-black metal scales. It was the friction of the wings against the scales that produced a harsh sound that resonated with spiritual energy.
It flaps its wings, but apart from its scales, its head is green and red with a greasy sheen, and its tail has a reusable poisonous stinger like a killer bee.
After crushing the strange insect into pieces, the captain was shocked to find that it was not dead yet - the inside of the strange insect was a strange corrosive colloid with the insect's internal organs floating inside. Crushing the body would not immediately stop it.
To kill this strange insect, you have to use fire or alkali or salt to treat it.
"Boom buzz..."
The swarms of insects kept attacking, shaking the tunnel, with an unstoppable momentum. Their scales shone with brilliance, their tail needles were sharp, and their sounds were harsh and shocking. They were simply a perfect war tool, wherever they passed.
, like a flood sweeping across, making everyone just want to retreat and avoid it.
The Feiyan soldiers who first came into contact had already opened fire, and the fire was shining brightly.
"Ahh!!"
"Help!"
But the effect was not great. The sound and sparkle of the fire attracted the swarm of insects. The two soldiers who fired at the beginning were drowned by the gathering swarm of insects. By the time the insects dispersed, they were covered with holes, and their devastated bodies were even covered with holes.
They are densely packed insect eggs.
——Insect swarms will build nests inside the organisms they kill as nutrients for the growth of their larvae!
As a last resort, the captain could only use cold weapons to fight. He drew out his sword, activated the wind pressure, and slashed at the insect swarm amidst the clanging sound.
Several continuously rotating, cutting blade-like wind blades swept forward, chopping up and crushing a large piece of strange insects - the scale dragon moth was not tough, and with the strength of the Terran people, it could be chopped off with one sword.
Destroyed a lot.
This prompted other soldiers to see the sound of swords chopping in the black mist. Various martial arts were used to attack the insect swarm. The waves of air surged, causing corpses to fall one after another.
At the same time, the trap was also detonated.
Boom!
A violent explosion sounded, and thunder reverberated in the corridor. Gravel and shock waves rushed back and forth in a relatively narrow area. The directional blasting explosives formed a high-heat wave, which directly cut off the still flowing poisonous black mist.
Even rolled back.
The psychic blast also worked. Even the Feiyan soldiers who were not the main attacker felt like their brains were being punched hard after a flash of blue light. Their five senses disappeared for a moment, and their ears were filled with a buzzing sound. What?
Can't hear either.
If it were on the vast surface, the insect swarms could spread out to avoid shock waves and psychic explosions, but in the underground ruins, they could not escape and could only be burned to ashes, or fall like raindrops - just
In an instant, most of the originally dense insect swarm was gone, and the darkness that was so blinding became much lighter.
"Buzz buzz..."
But before everyone in Feiyan could breathe a sigh of relief, there was another harsh sound of flapping wings in the corridor in the distance, and the black mist became thick again, causing everyone's expressions to change.
"What exactly is in front of you? Can't you kill it all?"
In this regard, the Spiritual Machinery Church had to use its trump card - the nun took out a box from the center of her chest, opened it, and a red light shot onto the ground, and then quickly condensed into a giant machine gun as big as a person.
She easily lifted the giant machine gun with one hand. The nun's weight was surprisingly heavier than the machine gun.
——The body modification degree of the Steel Sisters of the Psychic Church all exceeds 80%... They are not so much human beings as they are armor equipped with human brains!
Buzz…
The huge machine gun began to rotate and warm up, and the nun also began to demonstrate her inheritance ability - high-heat fiery red dust merged into the machine gun, condensing into bullets that were half virtual and half solid.
The unique true form inheritance of the Spiritual Machinery Church, the 'Heavy Attacker', can condense high-explosive bullets at any time and anywhere, and can capture enemy positions by one person even without logistics.
The small box she took out before was the 'Ether Matter Converter', a technology unearthed by the Spiritual Mechanism Church from the relics of life in the previous era in the past ten years - it can etherify specific items through specific inscriptions, and the source matter
ized and stored in the corresponding storage box.
It is said that this technology is the core of the "ascension plan" carried out by the civilization of the previous era... In other words, the human body can be converted into ether, thereby reducing the pressure of ascension and allowing more people to ascend at once
.
The giant machine gun finished preheating, and then instantly erupted into a storm of flames that swept across the entire corridor - the breath of flames burned almost all the scaled dragon moths in an instant.
Although some of the insect swarms turned to attack the nuns, they discovered after stinging and biting them that under the loose clergy robes of the nuns, there was not a soft body, but solid steel... The nun with the sleepless eye
, or in other words, the core members of the Spiritual Mechanism Order all need to use special techniques for body modification. Except for the flesh and blood tissue that is retained to load the source material structure, almost all of the body shells will be replaced with steel.
A mere needle prick could not penetrate the nun's outer armor at all, and could only be burned into ashes by the heat dissipation emitted from the opponent's body.
【forward】
At this moment, entering the battle state, the nun's real voice sounded, which was a bland electronic sound without any emotion: [There should be a nest of these strange insects ahead. If you want to continue exploring, you must destroy the nest! 】
The giant machine gun continued to rotate and fire, until the red flames engulfed everything and then slowly stopped.
"Walk!"
Almost all the insects were eliminated, and after a brief preparation, everyone immediately moved forward under the command of the captain.
The further you go along the corridor, the traces of human beings will gradually disappear... In front of you is a rift valley, and the water from the top of the rift valley turns into a small waterfall and roars here. I don't know if it was like this back then, or if it has been changed by geological changes over the past thousand years, but here
There are indeed a large number of black metal nests like honeycombs, and many scaled dragon moths whose lower bodies have not yet completely hardened are still crawling out of the nest mouths, and the water mist stirred up by the waterfall has also been hatched into black mist by the poisonous water flowing out of the nests.
The monks began to take samples, and after taking samples, these nests were quickly destroyed, and the black mist was burned away by the flames.
"Is this really the ruins center?"
The captain became increasingly uneasy, because all the insect swarms had been wiped out, and the entire cave was extremely quiet except for the sound of their team. He heard the sound of gurgling water coming from the distance. There should be a small river formed by the water seeping from the top of the rift valley.
.
This should have been a humid and cold environment, but thermal vision told him that the environment in front of him would be getting hotter and hotter, and the river seemed to be boiling, releasing a red spectrum.
"Indeed, look, there are many remains of combat weapons from pre-era civilizations here."
The nun stood up. She had been investigating the soil on the ground that was soaked with insect secretions and various poisonous waters. At this moment, she reached out without hesitation and pulled out a piece of silver-gray armor that had not decayed so far from the poisonous mud.
He said in an almost obsessed tone: "Look, the material of this alloy... can maintain perfect stability even in a highly corrosive environment, but it is not fine gold - although the hardness is slightly less, it is
An alloy as stable as gold!"
"The materials are probably Chongyuan Iron, Henggang and Mingguang Iridium... Unfortunately, the equipment is not enough and we cannot detect more accurate data."
——Technical lunatic.
The captain showed a moment of disgust. He knew very well that the Spiritual Machinery Church was a group of madmen who did not care about their lives for the sake of technology. They were a little rational before, but now that they see the target, the opponent's actions will definitely turn into extremely radical actions immediately.
However, at this moment, suddenly.
The ground shook.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
It was like something huge was stumbling closer.
Because of the previous Giant Golden Mushroom Fortress Turtle, everyone was not panicked, but the faces of the captain and the nun at the head even showed expressions of fear.
"This breath is the second energy level -"
The scout in front exclaimed, but before he could finish his words, he suddenly saw a black shadow passing by, and the scout's body disappeared, leaving only his legs with skeletal bones remaining in place, and big puffs of blood flowing from the rift valley.
Dropping from high in the sky.
"Retreat quickly, return to the corridor!"
The captain drew his sword and faced him, and shouted sharply: "Set up the alchemical cannon!"
A sharp scream erupted from the shadow of the rift valley, and a giant object darker than the shadow was moving in mid-air at high speed.
The captain's Adam's apple rolled, and he who originally wanted to draw his sword to face him was speechless, and he could not move his steps, because with the chaotic words of the special forces team and the fire of firearms, the huge giant hanging in the upper part of the rift valley
Then the giant thing revealed its figure.
What kind of weird and majestic beast is that?
The huge body, which exceeds a hundred meters, looks like a sharp carapace made of steel blades, and the thousands of pairs of constantly wriggling blade feet are firmly inserted into the rugged stone walls of the rift valley, suspending its huge body in mid-air.
This is a super giant metal centipede, its entire body is dark and non-reflective, but it is not a real creature - it has two huge drill-shaped forelimbs at the front of its body, and there are three huge turbine-like power devices on its back that are constantly spraying out
The high-heat steam screams, and you can even vaguely see a kind of pale particles being continuously released from the turbine, providing this metal behemoth with terrifying destructive power.
There is a scarlet one-eye on the 'head' of the giant golden centipede. This one-eye is locked in front of Feiyan's soldiers, and the drill in its hand still has the blood and flesh and blood of the soldiers that were crushed before.
It is clearly extremely hostile and has no intention of negotiating.
"Guji... Guji..."
A disgusting mucus squirming sound sounded, and the psychic nun immediately looked in the direction of the sound. It came from a hemispherical raised point in the center of the giant golden centipede's waist, where there were many weird flesh and blood growths.
If Ian were here, he would definitely be able to tell at first glance that these flesh and blood growths are very similar to the fusion of the great shaman on the head of Crocodile Dragon! They are also very similar to the hyperplastic polyps that the parasites defeat when they invade the brain!
"Is this a Warcraft or a Giant Ruin Soldier?!"
Before the sound was heard, the giant golden centipede had already launched an attack. It charged directly, its thousands-edged legs constantly reciprocating and moving regularly, driving its huge body to charge forward at high speed. These extremely sharp feet touched it
Everything that comes is crushed without mercy.
"It's the giant ruins soldier!"
The nun, who was extremely nervous and stared at the giant ruins soldier in front of her with fanatical and intoxicated eyes, replied loudly. Her voice was trembling, and it was impossible to tell whether it was fear or joy: "The complete giant ruins soldier, and, there is '
The driver's steering!"
boom!
Just as the nun answered loudly, the two-meter-long electrified flame tongue spit out, and the alchemical cannon was fired.
Thunderous roars echoed in the empty caves, layer after layer, mixed with the howling of the wind. The explosive air waves carried gravel and high-temperature water mist and impacted in all directions. Its momentum was enough to make even the largest monsters attack.
Retreat temporarily.
However, the combined blow of Feiyandi's latest anti-armor cannon and deflagration warhead did not waver its target at all. It only caused a slight dent in the opponent's outer armor and was covered with a layer of harmless flames.
cover.
The dark shadow is still approaching step by step.
At the same time, Ian and his team had arrived near the River of Parasites.
