Chapter four hundred and ninety-eight mechanical beasts
"The problem now is not the fall of the entire southern region, but the whereabouts of Dongfang He and Sun Changan." Qiao Shan shouted with a gloomy face, "I know the strength of Dongfang He and Sun Changan, no matter how difficult it is, no matter how difficult it is, situation, they will definitely be able to transmit key information back through Hummingbird.
Such a sudden loss of contact, without even a hint of the fall of the South, I think about it and there is only one possibility."
"What?"
"They were killed in an instant."
The atmosphere in the command room instantly dropped to freezing point again.
"Without figuring out what happened, the recovery of the southern region cannot be carried out for the time being. I suggest that a reconnaissance team be sent deep into the southern region to investigate behind enemy lines to at least determine what happened."
"This is the only way. Commander-in-Chief, I have a request. I want to join this investigation team." Qiao Shan said with a serious face.
"You? Isn't it necessary?" Shen Xiaowu asked in surprise.
"It's completely necessary. My intuition tells me that something happened to Sun Changan and the others. And for two powerful people with titles to be in trouble at the same time without even having time to send out a warning... it must be a very terrible situation."
"Well, I'll join too." Wang Lan suddenly said, "If Earth Walker's guess is true, then Earth Walker's trip here must be very dangerous. I will go with him to take care of him, and we cooperate well with each other. .”
"It would be great if Wang Lan can go."
"Then I'll go too!" Bailong suddenly put down his legs and said.
Looking at the lineup in front of him, Shen Xiaowu was slightly stunned for a long time and didn't know what to say. An investigation mission actually required three powerful people to act together?
"Okay, I'll leave it to you, keep in touch with Hummingbird."
Wang Lan, Earthwalker Qiao Shan, and Bailong Bai Xiaofeng led the team, followed by two Star Sea Realms and seven Galaxy Realms to form a twelve-person reconnaissance team and set out quietly.
Jiang Xinyu is naturally one of the two Star Sea Realms. Although Jiang Xinyu has just broken through the Star Sea Realm and cannot fully display the combat power of the Star Sea Realm, but with the combat power of three titled warriors, they do not need any high combat power. .
Because they don’t know what happened in the southern region, and their main mission is reconnaissance, so staying concealed is a necessary condition. With the strength of Wang Lan and his team, they can certainly fight it openly, but fighting it will take time, and they are more likely to alert the snake. .
Then, how to travel has become a problem. Now the southern region has been completely occupied by alien beasts. No matter whether you are walking on the ground or in the sky, once you are discovered by alien beasts, you will definitely be surrounded.
"My Earth Walking Technique can allow you to sneak underground quickly, with the fastest speed reaching 200 per hour." Earthwalker suggested.
"What's the point of earth travel? We have to sneak into a distance of 500 kilometers. Earth travel can only be a few kilometers at most. Even if you are a super S-level earth travel, you can't go more than dozens of kilometers. Earth travel is too slow. , and it’s a waste of time.
How about we act separately, divide our troops into three groups, and not be too far away from each other, so that we can take care of each other and at the same time disperse the siege of the strange beasts."
"It's better to sneak in alone with a small team. If the number is small, the concealment will be higher."
"Can you please listen to what I have to say?" Qiao Shan interrupted Bai Xiaofeng with an impatient look, "My Earth Movement Technique can last a hundred kilometers. But after one hundred kilometers, I need to rest for half an hour to recover my physical strength and energy. Star power.”
"One hundred kilometers?"
As soon as Qiao Shan said these words, everyone was shocked. The ability to travel a hundred kilometers at a time is unimaginable for normal people. And he is still taking people with him?
"Don't be so shocked, I will be proud." Qiao Shan was slightly proud, "If I were alone, I could sneak up to 150 kilometers at a time."
"If you have this ability, why do you want us to work together? Can't you complete the investigation work alone?" Bai Xiaofeng shouted at Qiao Shan.
"I said at the beginning that I would go on a reconnaissance trip alone, but it was you who all impatiently asked me to come together."
"You didn't say you could sneak a hundred kilometers at a time."
"You didn't even ask."
"..."
Everyone present was confused. With such a common star martial art as earth movement, do you still need to ask? Normally, the ability to sneak for more than one kilometer in earth movement is considered to be a very high level of cultivation. Only the earth element star warriors at the peak level can do so.
Able to sneak for several kilometers.
Even if you are a Five Emperor-level earth-based specialist, the ability to sneak for dozens of kilometers is considered awesome, but the Earthwalker can actually sneak for a hundred kilometers. This is crushing all the people in the world, no, all the people of the past and present under your feet.
.
"My title is Earthwalker, that's how I got it. Come on, everyone, come over and stand by my side."
A group of star warriors came together to surround the Earth Walker, with Wang Lan and Bai Xiaofeng guarding the entire team as head and tail.
A burst of hazy white light rippled out, and star power enveloped everyone. In an instant, the ground beneath everyone's feet seemed to have lost its bearing capacity, and everyone instantly sank into the soil and disappeared.
The feeling of traveling underground is very strange. It feels like the surrounding soil has turned into water, but it is lighter and thinner than water. Moreover, the soil will not cause any friction with their bodies. They are like a group of ghosts, traveling quickly underground.
"collapse--"
There was a slight vibration, and the shuttle of a group of people suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong? Has it reached 100 kilometers?"
"No, I've only walked fifty kilometers." The Earthwalker looked a little ugly. He had just pretended to say that he could sneak a hundred kilometers underground, but he was slapped in the face on his first dive.
"This is the Earth Crystal Area, a special section that can isolate all earth star martial arts." Wang Lan smiled and explained for the Earth Walker.
"This section of the road can only be walked on the ground. Let's go up."
The Earth Crystal area is no secret to the Star Warriors who are reclaiming space in the Sea of Clouds. Everyone knows that there is a Jedi land for Earth System Star Warriors in the area due south. But the Earth Walkers just came from the northwest space, so of course they don’t know.
The group of people rose to the ground. The land under their feet was somewhat similar to the obsidian at the ice cliff. It was dark and shiny, with a metallic luster. The area of the obsidian was about one kilometer, but it actually occupied this area.
There is a kind of semi-mechanical alien beast, the mechanical armored beast.
This was Wang Lan's first time seeing a mechanical beast. Most of its body and even its organs were replaced by metal machinery. It was as big as a bull and had a rhinoceros-like horn on its forehead.
Of course, this kind of strange beast was not originally aboriginal to the Earth Crystal area, but was invaded by this beast wave.
At first, Wang Lan and others were very careful to avoid the sneaking mechanical armored beasts. But before they had gone five hundred meters, Wang Lan and others were surrounded by a group of mechanical armored beasts.
Half of the face of the mechanical armored beast is in mechanical form, with a red light flashing in the left eye, and the eyeballs form the shape of a camera. From an evolutionary perspective, this half-mechanical, half-biological thing should not exist at all, but the alien beast
It is an existence that completely goes against evolution.
And seeing the mechanical armored beast King Lan somehow reminded him of the planet Cybertron, which is far outside the solar system and dozens of light years away from the Azure Star. The mechanical life on it has already appeared small mechanical animals, and the evolved structures are very well-proportioned and reasonable.
.
At this rate, within fifty years there should be a mechanical life that can be used by Wang Lan as a weapon of war.
Compared to the lovely life on the planet Cybertron, these mechanical armored beasts in front of us seem so unfriendly.
After completing the siege of Wang Lan and others, he suddenly opened his huge mouth and protruded a cannon barrel from the mouth.
"boom--"
Dozens of artillery shells were fired in volleys, bombarding the group of people in an instant.
"The Gate of Underworld——"
Wang Lan slapped the ground with one palm, and the huge gates of the underworld rose up on three sides.
Boom boom boom——
The shells hit the Gate of Underworld, and rumbling explosions occurred one after another. Wang Lan's figure flashed, rushing through the Gate of Underworld like a ghost, and turned into a flying butterfly in a flash.
Each colorful butterfly landed next to a mechanical armored beast, and Wang Lan's figure flashed like a ghost, appearing next to each armored beast instantly.
The sword flashed, and dozens of armored beasts froze without warning, and then the red light in their eyes disappeared.
In one second, dozens of armored beasts slowly separated from the middle and were evenly divided into two halves. Wang Lan squatted down curiously to learn about the internal structure of the armored beasts' bodies.
It's strange that the armored beast's brain and the organs in its body are all biological organs, but its mouth, bones, esophagus and stomach pouch are all metal structures. The tissues of the body are also part mechanical and part biological.
Trying to use mechanical beasts to figure out how to artificially create robots probably has no reference value at all, and is simply unreasonable.
"Stop studying. Although I am very curious about the mechanical beasts and have never seen them a few times in my life, I still need to hurry. The previous explosion has already alerted the other mechanical armored beasts."
Wang Lan then stood up and hurried on with the large army. But along the way, Wang Lan still had a frown on his face.
"Wang Lan, what are you thinking about?" Jiang Xinyu came to Wang Lan gently and asked.
"I'm wondering how these half-mechanical, half-biological beasts can be perfectly combined? Wouldn't there be a conflict if their life foundations are different?"
"What's the scientific reason for the existence of alien beasts? If this world were scientific, then demons shouldn't exist." Qiao Shan said with a smile.
"That's not the case. We can't explain it scientifically. We can only prove that science has not developed to that point yet. Everything that exists can be called science.
Just like this alien space, who dares to say that they are really on the Azure Star? Isn't there some assumption? The alien space is made up of countless space fragments, and the creatures in those space fragments are not broken.
time, something that evolved from the world they lived in?
Maybe in the world where the mechanical armored beast lives, life is evolving from carbon-based life to silicon-based life. Our universe is endless, who knows what kind of strange evolution will happen in some corner? Moreover, these fragments are not necessarily certain.
It comes from our universe and may also involve parallel universes.”
Bai Xiaofeng explained in a serious manner, but no one except Wang Lan and Jiang Xinyu understood what he said.
