Chapter 245: Buried Alive
"Boom—" The loud explosion shook the mountain. Su Yue and the Chen family brothers and sisters were unsteady on their feet, and they stumbled a few times to support each other before they fell. The three of them looked at each other, and Su Yue couldn't help but ask, "Instructor Chen, how many mines have you planted, this power is too ......."
"No, the mines I put don't have this power...... Chen Zihao's face changed, and he turned his head sharply to look west, "The explosion didn't come from here, it was from that side!" ”
Looking in the direction that Chen Zihao's finger was pointing, Su Yue and Chen Xiaoshuang also changed their faces at the same time. I saw black smoke billowing into the sky, and the place where the smoke came out was the underground lair of the bandits.
Shen Hao is still underground, half an hour has passed since the last call before, and the explosion is so violent at this moment, even if he knows that Shen Hao's strength is far superior to everyone, the worry in his heart is still irrepressible.
Killing an elite apostle-level TX, the nightmare energy of feedback has caused the injuries on the three of them to begin to improve somewhat. Su Yue helped Chen Xiaoshuang, Chen Zihao dragged the rest of the equipment, and the three of them hurried to the entrance of the underground lair. I saw that the originally seemingly flat ground was still completely sunken, which proved that the supporting structure of the underground building had completely collapsed, and a large amount of earth and stone filled into a pit with an area of thousands of square meters.
"Shen Hao! Shen Hao! Can you hear me? Su Yue nervously pinched the communicator and shouted loudly, but there was no response from there. After a minute or two of calling, she dropped her rifle and drew her saber and rushed to the ruins to dig hard.
Chen Xiaoshuang and his brother glanced at each other, compared to Su Yue, they were more confident in Shen Hao's strength, but the current situation was really not optimistic, and they did not persuade Su Yue, they each took some tools and went up to help dig.
Thousands of square meters of earth and rock landslides, without the right tools, only manpower to dig out the trapped survivors below, this is simply an impossible task, but the three of them have no other choice, no matter what, it is impossible to leave Shen Hao, who does not know life and death, even if there is a slight opportunity, they have to work hard.
......
"Hunting geese all day long, I was also blinded by geese......" In the dark, Shen Hao shook his head with a wry smile. Unexpectedly, in addition to the four T1000s left in the underground lair, there were actually two T850s, and what these two T850s did was not to fight him, and after he finally eliminated the T1000, he very decisively detonated the energy core in his body, and came to a drama that ended up together.
The energy core in the T850's body uses hydroxide-ion batteries, which are powerful but extremely unstable, and under self-detonation, their power is no less than that of miniature tactical nuclear bombs. Although Shen Hao felt that something was wrong when the two T850s appeared, and tried his best to shake them off and rush to the east exit, he was still a step too slow.
The shock caused by the explosion caused the entire underground lair to collapse completely, and he was buried alive with tons of earth and rocks before he could cover his head with his arms.
If it were an ordinary person, it would be completely finished at once. However, Shen Hao's body was fully strengthened by the Nightmare Energy, and he actually resisted the squeeze of the earth and stones, although he still had some difficulty breathing, but fortunately, he did not hurt his muscles and bones.
The aftershocks of the explosion continued, and the pressure from the surrounding earth and rocks made him miserable. It's still buzzing in my ears, but it's still much better than the initial loss of voice.
Spit out the mud and sand in his mouth, Shen Hao took a deep breath hard, sucked all the little oxygen nearby into his lungs, and then he began to move his body. Moving one's body while being buried is a very difficult and highly technical task, but fortunately, his ability to control the muscles of his body has long since reached an inhuman level.
His body still maintains its buried movements, but if you look closely, you can see that the skin and muscles on the surface of his body are shaking at an extremely high frequency. Through this regular tremor, the layer of soil attached to his body begins to loosen, and the clumps of soil crack, which then slowly crumble into fine particles. Then the particles began to scatter around him with the force of the vibrations on his body.
While maintaining the tremor of his body, Shen Hao began to slowly stretch his limbs, his movements were very slow, and he could even be described as gentle. And the advantage of this is obvious, as he moves, the earth and stones around him that were originally tightly squeezing his body are squeezed away and scattered by him, while the dirt that is a little farther away is not immediately filled, and it takes him a full five minutes to open up a small space around him.
Exhaling the turbid air in his lungs, Shen Hao took a deep breath again. The oxygen around him had thinned to a dangerous level, and although his body was far beyond the limits of humans, he still couldn't escape the need for oxygen. If he can't find a way out before the last shred of oxygen is consumed, he will not escape the danger of suffocation from lack of oxygen.
Not daring to have time to rest, Shen Hao roughly chose a direction and immediately began to crawl forward. His crawling behavior was strange, his limbs did not make much movement, but like a loach, his whole body writhed and burrowed forward. Still using the tremors on the surface of his body to loosen and shatter the soil in front of him, he moved forward little by little, occasionally changing direction.
Although it was buried alive, the hardness of the surrounding soil layer is not exactly the same. Originally, it was the location of the cave wall, and the soil structure was reinforced during construction, so the degree of hardness is higher than that of the buried position after the collapse. And in order to avoid secondary collapses as much as possible, Shen Hao had to try to avoid these hard soil layers that could temporarily support the surrounding structure.
As a result, the speed of travel, which was already inefficient, will be reduced again. The lack of oxygen and the sweltering heat of the ground made Shen Hao soaked with sweat, and the sand mixed with sweat covered his body with a layer of mud, so that the seemingly small range of movement made his physical strength consume extremely quickly, and after the third breath, the oxygen that had been diluted to a dangerous level made him begin to feel dizzy for a while.
Before the explosion, he had been as close as possible to the exit passage, and he had the impression that it was only five or six meters from the ground. But buried deep in the earth, the dark vision, and the dead silence of the environment made his sense of direction begin to deviate. The situation began to become dangerous, and if he inadvertently deviated from the upward direction, he would probably go further and further down this deep underground labyrinth until he had consumed all the oxygen and suffocated in it.
"Damn, I'm not going to die in a place like this, am I?" Shen Hao stopped his movements and performed the fifth ventilation, although he had tried his best to inhale, the feeling of suffocation in his lungs was not greatly relieved, and the dizziness in his brain was even more intense.
If a dignified supreme-level powerhouse was buried alive like this, it would be too ridiculous, right? He suddenly had an urge to release his nightmare energy, if he entered the battle form, such a thick layer of soil was estimated to be able to blast open with a single punch, right? But what if there are still the Apostles of the Nightmare nearby? Once the identity of the Nightmare Hunter is revealed, the next thing is to be overwhelmed by an endless number of enemies, if it is only oneself, it is better to say, after all, it has been forced to a life-and-death situation, let it go, and it is better to die in battle than to suffocate to death.
But no, there are two girls nearby, Su Yue and Xiaoshuang, if they attract the army of demons, it will be the end of everyone together. I am a senior, and I can't let them die with me in order to survive. The legacy of the Nightmare Hunter is sometimes more important than an individual's life, and when his master dumped himself and faced the army of Nightmare Demons alone, did he feel the same as he does now?
Shen Hao shook his head helplessly, and suddenly smiled bitterly to himself: "I really want to have another cigarette......
"Jingle ......"
"Click......"
Shen Hao, who was about to act again, suddenly moved his ears. There is a sound! I stuck to the cave wall on the side and listened carefully, and sure enough, there was a sound, as if it was the sound of excavating earth and rocks with metal! Although the sound travels faster in the earth than in the air, you can still hear that the excavation location is not too far away from you, and the only trouble is that it is not the direction you want to go.
There must be two girls trying to save me. The smile on the corner of Shen Hao's mouth was a little less bitter and a little more joyful. Fortunately, I heard this voice, otherwise I would have gone in the wrong direction, but I would really be trapped here. He took another deep breath, leaned sideways, and slid in the direction the sound was coming from.
......
It is indeed not a good choice to dig with a saber, but fortunately, there are not too many hard stones in the soil layer, and although the three of them are injured, their physical qualities are not comparable to ordinary humans. The three of them each found a position and dug vertically downward, and they all dug down nearly three meters deep for a while. In some places, some of the remains of the underground nest have been dug up, but the cavity below is basically filled, and even if it is dug deep into the nest, it is still difficult.
"Wait!" Chen Zihao suddenly shouted, and Xiaoshuang and Su Yue both stopped their movements and looked at him. He didn't speak, just crouched down and stood in the pit he had dug and listened carefully. After a while, he jumped up from the pit with a frown, and jumped into the pit dug by the little pair on the side of him in two steps.
This time he pressed his ear against the side of the hole, frowning slightly. Suddenly, he picked up the saber in his hand and struck it the wall of the cave with the hilt.
Seeing his movements, Chen Xiaoshuang's face also showed an expression of surprise, and he jumped down to help his brother knock on the cave wall together. Su Yue also seemed to think of something, crawled out of her pit and ran towards them, and at this time, her extremely keen sense of hearing also felt that something in the depths of the soil was squirming in their direction, and the sound was the rustling sound of flesh rubbing against the soil, not metal, not a terminator, then it must be a movement made by Shen Hao.
Just jumped into the hole, but saw Chen Xiaoshuang and Chen Zihao suddenly take a step back together, and then saw the wall of the hole next to their ankles bulge and break, and a muddy palm stretched out from inside......
