Chapter 759: Erosion that Lasts for Thousands of Years?
The moment Lin Lan finished speaking, a disgusting aura that was extremely familiar to everyone present spread from the chest of the island core guardian who was about to self-destruct.
The bright cyan luster on the chest of the cyan elemental monster actually contains a rich black substance like the Demon King's army!
"X erosion?!"
Before Lin Lan could react, Yunxian had decisively drawn out the long sword from his waist, drawing an invisible ripple in the air.
The next second, after hearing Lin Lan's reminder, a pale golden barrier appeared in front of Shen Lianying who retreated from the air, covering everyone.
"boom!!!"
The second the barrier cast by Yun Xian appeared, the body of this wind elemental monster completely exploded.
The extremely rich and violent wind element explosion shock wave spread in all directions in an instant, tearing apart the broken walls and elemental flowers of the surrounding ruins. Even the ground was cut like a knife, with countless carvings scratched by the sharp wind blades.
However, the X-corrosive matter that Lin Lan expected did not appear.
Under the influence of these violent wind elements that spread to all directions, the X-corrosive substances in the island core guardian's body were all crushed to pieces by the filled wind elements before they could spread.
After a few seconds, the raging wind gradually stopped, and the figure of the guardian of the island's core also disappeared, completely returning to dust.
"The guardian of the island core will have evil power in his body...why is this?"
After Shen Lian Ying fell in front of them, the girl from the Yinglong tribe looked at the cyan wind element light spots gradually dissipating outside the barrier and murmured to herself dully:
"Could it be that the ancient altar of the island core has also been eroded by evil spirits, and even the guardians of the island core have become monsters..."
"No, it's not a monster controlled by X."
At this moment, Lin Lan suddenly interrupted Shen Lianying's confused words in a deep voice.
He looked at the area where the island core guardian had been standing, with only a sunken open space left, and said in a solemn tone:
"It is guarding Liaozhou, these island core guardians... Even though thousands of years have passed, they still have not forgotten their mission."
Seeing that the Chongying ship girls and two Yinglong girls around him were looking at him in confusion, Lin Lan sighed and told the reason why he made such a judgment:
"If my guess is correct, these island core guardians have indeed been eroded by X, but they are not under the control of X to attack outsiders for no reason."
"They don't want outsiders to enter the depths of the ancient ruins at the core of the island."
"Your sister just told you that X Corrosion has the ability to subtly corrupt and distort the will of others, and you also heard the words of the Nuclear Guardian of Head Island before he blew himself up. What he said was that the evil must not be allowed to spread."
Lin Lan analyzed the information as best he could from the words of the self-destructing island core guardian he just heard:
"Since there are more than one guardian of the island core, this also explains why so many Liaozhou adventurer teams have not yet penetrated the depths of the ancient ruins of the island core."
"Except for the large number of ruins monsters in the ruins, these ancient island core guardians, whose strength is absolutely crushing to adventurers, are also constantly driving away those adventurers."
"Even if they are defeated, they will use self-destruction to destroy the X-corroding substances in their bodies together with the adventurers with an astonishingly powerful elemental explosion, preventing these adventurers from being corrupted by X and turning into the Demon King's army, posing a threat to Liaozhou. "
Lin Lan's words made everyone fall into thinking and silence.
Because if this is true, it means that X has never stopped eroding Liaozhou in these thousands of years.
There are actually X corrosives in the ancient ruins of Inaba Island, which is enough to show that the brave Yuki who defeated Kamire Sakura and sealed the Abyss Demon Cave did not completely eradicate the threat of X.
After that battle, some changes must have occurred in Ancient Liaozhou, which caused all the central urban areas of these island cores to fall into ancient ruins.
"Well, I'm just speculating. The specific reason won't be known until we enter the ancient altar of the island core on Inaba Island."
Lin Lan saw that the atmosphere was a little depressed, so he smiled and encouraged everyone:
"Maybe when we go deeper into the ruins later, we can find some records or clues left by local residents."
Tiancheng nodded at this time and said to everyone:
"What the Lord said is absolutely true. Until we find actual evidence, we cannot be sure that X has really eroded Liaozhou for thousands of years."
After the top adviser of Shige Sakura finished speaking, Musashi also added to Kamire Sakura and Kamireyou:
"In order to prevent you from being affected by the self-destruction, we will leave these island nuclear guardians to us."
Regarding Musashi's suggestion, the Kamirei Sakura sisters certainly understood that it was to protect them, so they all nodded in agreement.
At this time, both of them were eager to know what happened to Liaozhou after they were sealed by Yuki.
Why did Gu Liaozhou, which was still strong even after the attack by the Demon King's army, fall to the current situation?
And this answer can only be revealed after they, Lin Lan and the girls from the Chongsakura ship enter the deepest part of the ancient ruins.
So after Yun Xian lifted the barrier, everyone once again embarked on a journey to conquer the ruins.
On the way, in addition to killing a large number of ruin monsters along the way, they also encountered several wind elemental island core guardians.
However, the experienced girls of the Chongsakura Ship have already discussed with Lin Lan an efficient way to deal with it.
That is, after the carrier-based aircraft formation of the Twin Eagle Sisters completed searching for enemies from high altitudes, Musashi, Mikasa and others took Kii and other battleship girls to directly use naval guns to conduct long-range artillery strikes on the nuclear guardians of the Wind Element Island. .
Although the explosions of these powerful naval guns are physical damage.
But thanks to Yubari's module upgrade, the various elemental damage added to the shells they fired were enough to prevent these island core guardians from getting close to them, and they were attacked by artillery fire until they self-destructed.
Lin Lan also unfolded his commander's uniform in order to have a general understanding of their strategy progress and to observe the impact of the elemental equipment of the Chongsakura girls.
Through the screen that comes with the weapon system, Lin Lan can clearly see on the map that they are gradually approaching the depths of the ruins, and they are constantly clearing away the incoming island core guardians and ruins monsters.
This also gave him a sense of déjà vu, as if he was pushing pictures in a game event.
And Shimakaze, Yukikaze and the rest of the group of little lolita were not idle either, collecting trophies along the way.
In the words of the little profiteer Akashi, these are all very valuable treasures that can be used by Yubari as a reference to create new upgrade modules.
Well, all in all, in Akashi's eyes, basically everything has value.
Lin Lan watched Akashi and Shiranui, the two small proprietresses in the port area, hurriedly registering the information on the trophies and sorting them quickly, and felt that it was absolutely right to bring them all on this trip.
The classified monster corpse materials, the ancient Liaozhou props found in the ruins, and many precious flowers and medicinal materials were all given to Kashino.
As the daughter of the heavy Sakura transport ship Kashino, the size of the ship's storage space is as big as her arrogant heart that dominates the entire port.
Even if Shimakaze and the others kept sending new loot items, Kashino could easily put them all into the ship's storage space on his own.
In this way, with the orderly advancement of the entire Chongqing Fleet, at noon, they finally arrived at the depths of the ancient ruins.
