Chapter 1622 Raid on the Nest
The entire crystal column layer erupted with a strong oscillation that lasted for more than five minutes, followed by longer aftershocks and secondary disasters.
Amantir's sandwich hollow structure is like a natural resonance cavity. The impact caused by the collapse of the crystal pillars produced the most terrifying crustal oscillation in history in this planetary resonance cavity. The entire southern hemisphere of the planetary battleship was like a big mouthful. Roaring like a bell, looking from space, one can see that the land of Amantir suddenly sunk in, and then this part of the sunken area swelled up as if it were elastic - that was because the starship's armor reset device could not withstand it. This tearing from the inside caused the wrong operation - the entire land began to ripple, folds and twists, mountains thousands of meters high formed and then disappeared in just a few minutes, water boiled and was thrown into the atmosphere, and in In a very short period of time, it triggered a huge storm that spread to a quarter of the planet: If there is a planet-level mortal civilization on this planet, then in these short ten minutes, this civilization has already regressed back to the Iron Age. , or even worse.
What happened beneath the ground was even more terrifying.
Although Hao Ren's enthusiasm for doing things was unprecedentedly high, he still had to admit at this moment that standing next to a pillar supporting the earth's crust and blowing it up was an experience that was so stimulating that he would never want to do it again: that crystal towering upright from the sky. The pillar was cut into two pieces after a series of precisely calculated chain explosions. Then it was naturally dislocated and collapsed under the pressure of the heavy crust. Countless boulders and crystal fragments the size of hills fell from the sky like a torrential rain, instantly destroying the pillar. The crystal jungle in the crystal pillar layer was smashed into ruins, and the accompanying strong winds and sound waves crushed the ruins into finer powder.
Then he heard a terrifying creaking sound from the rock dome above, followed by a series of explosions and an arc of electricity so bright that it illuminated the entire top of the rock. It was the armor resetter near the equator that was completely melted by overload. sign.
The energy barrier used to seal the equatorial rift also failed. Hundreds of millions of tons of magma, earth and rock spewed out from the damaged area, falling toward the center of the earth under the influence of gravity. The entire crystal pillar layer was instantly hot.
The space on the crystal pillar layer, which was still barely peaceful at first, turned into purgatory in the blink of an eye. The sound waves and airflows that were enough to tear apart rocks, the high temperature of molten gold and wrought iron, and all kinds of toxic substances that were produced in an instant all came out at once. When this scene happened, When it happened, the goblins who were shouting "make trouble, make trouble, make trouble" suddenly fell silent for a few seconds, and then Hao Ren's ears were filled with their noise: "Wow, this place is going to... It’s over, it’s over!” “I didn’t expect this!” “It’s not fun at all, it’s not fun at all, it’s not…” “I’m going to die, I’m going to die, I’m going to die!!”
I bet these little guys never imagined what it would be like when the crystal pillar was blown down before they started the trouble?
When the shock wave arrived, energy shields suddenly lit up around Hao Ren and his friends. Because they had long known that blowing up a crystal pillar was an extremely crazy move, everyone not only put on life-sustaining collars in advance, but also equipped themselves with additional equipment. Shield generators and vector attitude stabilization devices, these advanced equipment helped them withstand the deadly environment of underground space and allowed them to stabilize their bodies in the shock wave. Now it seems that these preparations are quite effective.
Vivian was the calmest one except Hao Ren. She raised her head and stared unblinkingly at the rock dome at the top of the crystal pillar that was constantly shaking and cracking. Finally, she saw something emerging from the dome. A ray of red light, and the red light carried a heart-stopping aura of madness.
"The passage is open!" she shouted loudly, "Now, let's rush in!"
Hao Ren grabbed the data terminal and stuffed it into his pocket, then started the propulsion device and rushed straight towards the crack in the dome. At the same time, he turned around and shouted: "Lily!"
"It's been prepared for a long time!" the husky girl shouted as she took out the snacks she brought with her from her pocket, tore open the package and poured it into her mouth. She chewed up most of the package of spicy sticks and swallowed it in two or two times. In her belly, the next second, her eyes glowed with a golden light that was about to turn into a beast, and green veins spread along her arms and neck, "I will suppress it for two minutes - the task of controlling the flight will be left to you, landlord." !”
Not everyone is born to fly like Vivian, so at this moment, everyone who cannot fly is equipped with a propulsion device provided by Hao Ren, but Lily's propulsion device is controlled remotely by Hao Ren: because she is receiving It will be difficult to control yourself in a short period of time.
Amidst the huge rocks and crystal fragments falling like a torrential rain, Hao Ren's team launched a charge in the direction of the collapse of the dome. The dark red cracks on the dome quickly enlarged in front of his eyes. Hao Ren felt that he was unprecedentedly calm at this moment. The hesitation and nervousness disappeared, and in front of him there was only the crack that exuded an ominous atmosphere, like a door to hell. In this state, he even felt that the passage of time slowed down, and every particle floating around him The dust becomes clearly visible.
This illusion only lasted for a few seconds. The next moment, he had rushed into the crack and passed through a dark red light film that seemed to be substantial.
The moment they pass through the light film, everyone clearly feels the changes in the surrounding environment. The inside and outside of the light film seem to be two interconnected but distinct spaces. Although it is impossible to accurately tell the difference between the two spaces, But the feeling of "stepping through the door" was unmistakable.
They entered the interior of the nightmare lair, a place where illusion and reality are superimposed on each other, and time and space are confused.
"Ouch-woof!!"
A loud howl interrupted everyone's sense of trance after crossing the space. The moment Lily passed through the rift, she released the restrictions on her own strength. With the strong wind pressure and aura deterrent, a giant husky with a height of five meters appeared. She strode out from a cloud of smoke, and at the same time as she appeared, a white light containing powerful energy began to escape from her mouth.
The giant husky glanced around casually, then opened his mouth wide in a certain direction: "Roar——"
With a strange "buzz" sound, the air was shaken layer by layer, and thick white light cannons illuminated the entire space, shooting towards the black shadows in the distance.
This is the first step that was discussed before: Lily holds back a wave of energy bar before entering, transforms instantly after entering, and then blasts a dog cannon at the place where the energy reaction is strongest: as an instantaneous person in Hao Ren's team, The most lethal blow, the dog cannon is the opening song of this offensive operation.
And with the strong light of the white light cannon, this dark and oppressive space was completely illuminated at once. Hao Ren quickly saw clearly the scene in the nightmare lair at this sudden glance.
He didn't throw up, but he almost did.
In that brief glimpse, he saw that this so-called nightmare lair was not a fortress wrapped in rock and metal as he had imagined before, but more like... a huge squirming organ.
Flesh and blood filled the field of vision. The inner wall of the entire space was a layer of living biological tissue. Countless thick, blood-vessel-like things spread and grew under the squirming surface, while things like nerve lines and muscle bundles were exposed. Come out, and the dome of this giant cave is intertwined into a large net. Behind the large net, you can still vaguely see the remaining mechanical structure: that is the base of the control center, part of which has been swallowed up by this nightmare nest. .
This scene is like being in the stomach of a giant beast.
But these biological tissues were not the only ones here. Among the disgusting flesh and blood, Hao Ren still saw traces of other substances: thick stone pillars, metal beams and crystal clusters growing irregularly in this vast space. It has been twisted and corrupted by the power of the Mad Lord into a weird appearance, but it can still be vaguely seen that it was originally part of Amantir's underground facility.
Hao Ren also saw the goal of this operation:
Lily's perception was accurate. The light cannon she fired after entering the room shot straight towards the center of the nightmare lair. There was a huge round platform bulging high, and the space above the round platform showed signs of distortion. , the layers of translucent barriers made it look like it was shaking across a layer of water, and behind the layers of barriers, there was a huge brain tissue hanging in the air.
It's as big as a house!
This huge brain hangs upside down tens of meters above the round platform, and is expanding and contracting regularly, while a large number of nerve lines and blood vessels extend from above it, like a pipe connecting to the dome of the nightmare lair—— Looking at the direction in which the nerves and blood vessels disappeared, Hao Ren's first thought was the Amantir Crystal.
Sure enough, just as the goblins said, the monsters in the nightmare lair have been connected to the Amantil crystal, and the nerve lines are directly connected. If he really led the team to touch the crystal...
This is a complete book for my mother-in-law!
Lily's dog cannon destroyed a large number of stone pillars and crystal clusters along the way, but as expected, this raid could not solve the biggest problem in the nightmare lair once and for all. There were hundreds of layers of energy shields surrounding the hanging brain tissue. , the powerful divine light cannon only penetrated a few layers before being unable to survive, turning into pure energy and dissipating in the air.
The brain tissue behind the barrier trembled violently: it began to feel the crisis in its sleep.
"Ugh..." Nangong Wuyue was startled by the disgusting scene in the nightmare lair. She immediately opened a water mist barrier and used the soothing and purifying effect of the water element to forcefully dispel the mental shock caused by the surrounding environment. , "What the hell is this place!"
"Amantil is transforming into a living flesh-and-blood creature, and the Nightmare Nest is the brain of this creature!" the data terminal screamed, "We must destroy that thing immediately!"
"You don't need to tell me, I know it!" Hao Ren had already taken out his long spear and short cannon, and rushed forward with a good face, "Everyone, follow me!"
Nangong Sanba also roared: "Full firepower! Clean this place before we spit it out!"
