The underground of Shinjuku City has complex geological conditions.

Aragaki's tentacles, even if they are all made of supermetals whose performance far exceeds that of ordinary metals, the structure of each tentacle is similar to a slender drill bit, and it is still not very convenient to move.

However, Makita Hao's Rock Giant is completely different, moving smoothly like silk.

In comparison, Aragaki's tentacles are like slow motion.

"Why? Why is it so silky? ”

Aragaki's tentacles, while interfering with Makita Hao, generate countless sensors on it to collect information from Makita Hao.

When Aragaki was puzzled, Makita Hao was also secretly surprised.

The underground is his home field, and he never thought that there are really people underground, who can touch him without a large-scale attack.

He was able to maintain a high degree of freedom, as well as a high degree of autonomy, in large part, because even the Thirteen Emissaries were not sure that they would be able to capture him underground.

However, at this moment, the tentacles that wriggled like countless earthworms seemed to move slowly, but there were always one or two that could touch them.

Could it also have the ability to swap out underground at will?

Makita Hao carefully observed.

No!

It doesn't!

It is purely mechanical, as well as chemically acidic.

Where it moves, it's like a barrier that it can't replace.

If you form a cage, you may be able to capture yourself.

However, even if the monster returns, it is impossible to weave an impenetrable cage in the shortest possible time, as long as he is a little sluggish, he can escape.

Thinking of this, the expression on Makita Hao's face became relaxed again.

Based on the samples collected from Makita Hao's body and the construction of Makita Hao's movement model, Aragaki knows the secret of Makita Hao's silky smoothness.

The secret is simple.

It's just that Makita Hao is not so much moving, but constantly changing the components of his body.

He didn't even move a single piece of dust in the land, he just kept changing the clods he controlled.

In this way, the giant in general maintains a human form, and allows the giant to move smoothly as if it were in a vacuum.

After the pattern analysis is completed, Aragaki is calculating whether he can replicate this operation.

Aragaki calculated that it would not be easy to do this on his own in traditional soil.

However, if the current soil is converted into supermetallic soil, it will not be a problem at all.

Even......

As long as you convert enough dirt into supermetal, you don't have to stick to the so-called humanoid at all.

He had known for a long time that there was a limit to what a human being could look like.

It's a pity, like the guy below, who doesn't know this at all.

Thinking of this, Aragaki immediately issued a task, "Limited-time mission: Carrying metal." ”

He only gave the title of one task, and within a fraction of a second, Ah Zhai had already completed the specific content of the task.

The owners of the monster suits on the ground immediately started to act when they saw such a limited-time mission with rich rewards and low requirements.

Aragaki has also changed his battle mode with metal replenishment.

It is like devouring the buildings of the city, and selectively devouring the dirt underground.

The soil is rich in a variety of trace elements.

There is no shortage of these trace elements, metals.

Aragaki is not stupid, and it really eats a large piece of dirt, which is too expensive.

He selectively selects metal trace elements, and then connects them through the metals collected by the parasites in the monster suit.

Although there is only a thin layer of metal connected to it, it also makes Aragaki's movement like mercury.

Seeing this, Makita Hao frowned slightly.

"Is this the strength of monsters? Is this the ultimate creature!!??? ”

Makita gritted his teeth and expanded the range of his control. The fist like the Tokyo Tower "rumbled" out.

"Boom!"

This circle hit the foundation of Aragaki and shook the mountains in an instant.

The apricot on the second basement floor was the first to feel the tremors, "Is this an earthquake?" ”

She hugged the pillars of Aragaki as if she had an infinite sense of security.

A few tenths of a second later, the people on the ground also felt a violent tremor.

Although, for the people who live in this land, earthquakes are a common thing.

Whether it is a popular wooden house in ancient times or a modern steel jungle, it has an excellent shockproof design.

The former is easy to collapse and will not stone people to death, while the latter is not easy to collapse and will not survive if it collapses.

However, there are not many earthquakes of this magnitude, such as that kind of low-rise buildings, that are visible to the naked eye.

This feeling......

It's not like the source of an earthquake, it's coming from a few kilometers underground, dozens of kilometers away. It's like a person wearing a pair of slippers, and the soles of the slippers are the source of the shock.

However, although the earthquake was particularly terrifying.

However, it is not a big problem for these existences that have been strengthened by monster suits and are technically inhuman.

After an initial panic, they found that they were not helpless about an earthquake of this magnitude.

They can still move with their bright bodies.

At the same time, the time-limited mission in their mission center that is counting down is also motivating them. Even if it's the end of the world, you have to continue to do quests to get monster points.

Aragaki felt a little dizzy at the moment.

This dizzy sensation, similar to that of an ordinary person, crashes into a glass door without any interception.

Makita Hao saw Aragaki's entire body and trembled a few times.

He was a little excited in his heart, did he defeat this monster?

However, he was only happy for ten seconds before he realized that he was overthinking.

The tentacles in the dirt are still growing.

Although there was no light underground, Makita Hao could still clearly distinguish them, and clearly saw that they were glowing with a silvery-white light, continuing to grow.

It's like a small bamboo forest on the edge of Kabukicho.

When spring arrives, new rain sprouts and grows rapidly, although silently.

But when he looked at it again, he felt that something was wrong.

Those growing tentacles are not so much attacking themselves as they are growing savagely.

It's like the root system of a plant, taking root aimlessly.

Wait a minute!

Like plants!

Makita Hao suddenly felt that something was wrong.

The root system of a plant has never grown aimlessly.

Their goal has always been clear: to get nutrients.

However, what are the nutrients needed for the tentacle root system that looks like a silvery-white metallic luster?

Makita Hao was thinking, thinking, and suddenly the cold sweat from his underground river covered his back.

Because, he thought of it, he had learned a knowledge in the general education class.

The so-called earth is a planet with iron at its core.

Makita Hao raised his head, his face was incredulous, could it be said - is it going to be inserted into the core of the earth?

If Aragaki could communicate with his consciousness, he would definitely praise that the young man has a brain.

Aragaki wasn't so crazy that he plunged directly into the core of the earth, like a girl drinking lava, sipping a few sips of hot molten iron.

Because, he doesn't have that much metal.

He was like a pool of water that was being released and filled at the same time.

The users of those monster suits, no matter how hard-working, are just small water pipes.

Such a small water pipe, even with the trace metal elements in the earth, does not mean that he can break through to the center of the earth.

He's more of a gold miner now.

Each of his tentacles resembles a gold miner's hook.

He firmly believes that even underground in Tokyo will contain minerals rich in metals.

It's just that these mineral deposits, under the previous level of human technology, have not been developed or have not had enough economic benefits.

But is money an issue for Aragaki?

Now those who work for him don't get a penny.

As long as he paints the cake, it is enough.

As long as you can find metal deposits, it is not very easy to solve such a stone giant.

Makita Hao didn't expect Aragaki to have such a little bit of heart.

He already had a preconceived idea that Aragaki was a monster.

Monsters are not only the totems of the monster group, but also the great beings who can devour nuclear bombs.

How could such a great being do small things?

As soon as you make a move, there will be changes between heaven and earth.

Even in the depths of the earth, it is normal to merge with one earth.

Makita Hao made up for this in his own brain, and suddenly had some regrets.

Why did you want to provoke this monster?

There are so many people who obviously don't want the monster to come back.

The Thirteen Emissaries hardly wanted the monster to come back.

Even if it was Yusa, the guy who seemed to want the monster back the most, what the hell did he have in mind?

As long as you reveal the news of the monster's return to them, they will naturally come to fight against the monster.

All the energy of the monsters is focused on fighting them, so naturally there will be no time for almost expansion, and their own Kabukicho will be safe.

One wrong step is a lifelong mistake!

When Makita Hao thought of this, he already had the heart to retreat.

He was able to move freely between the lands, so he could abandon Kabukicho and leave Samoto.

It doesn't matter if you go to the Polar Bears along the continental shelf, or to the Romantic Capital, even if you go to Midi.

He believed that in those places, and places similar to Kabukicho, he would be able to regain his happiness.

Isn't blonde girls fragrant?

Fragrant!

It must be fragrant!

But is that what you do?

Makita Hao was a little unwilling.

Although Tokyo is in a state of de facto chaos at this moment.

The original social order has almost been completely destroyed.

But there is freedom here.

If you go to Europe and go to the United States, can you still have the unrestrained happiness you have now?

If you are good at using your abilities......

Makita Hao thought of this and made a decision.

He shrunk back into Kabukicho like lightning, carrying a treasure trove of yellow precious metals along the continental shelf.

Like a drag racing master, he dodged Aragaki's hanging metal tentacles.

In just an hour, he was already in Europe.

However, he did not notice at all that a small piece of his gold had become white.

Aragaki knew that the earth giant had escaped.

He didn't stop him.

Instead, he regarded him as a little white rabbit who had been panicking and running away in a hurry.

Let his body be hung with his own ears.

Since Makita Hao is also an expert in the land, Aragaki was not able to put a large part of his body on the gold he carried with him.

Even, that little white dot does not have independent computing power.

Of course, it doesn't have the ability to communicate remotely.

Aragaki just wrote a very simple loop on that little white dot.

A replication loop.

Whatever metal you touch, you devour it.

However, due to the small size at the beginning, it was difficult to expand.

However, Aragaki is not in a hurry.

He is no longer human, and he has a lifespan far beyond the imagination of so-called human beings.

A long life naturally has a long patience.

Aragaki is also curious about what the world will eventually become.

Aragaki wastes his computing power in a limited way, thinking of something bizarre.

His tentacles, like the rhizomes of a banyan tree, grew denser and denser in the earth.

However, the strange thing is that there are indeed no relatively large mineral deposits under Tokyo.

Those small deposits are not copper and iron.

Instead, it is dominated by silver and a little gold.

And as it goes down, the temperature gets higher and higher.

Solid supermetal, slowly starting to soften.

Of course, the rocks are no longer tough, but a little red.

Breaking into the semi-solidified shell, Aragaki discovers that it is all magma.

Just as he tried to evacuate the lava that was making him a little uncomfortable, the sonic collector on the tentacles picked up a sound similar to the howl of a ghost crying wolf.

Once, the stall literature of the United States once swore to report on the polar bear, once drilled a giant hole 100,000 meters deep, and heard the voice from hell.

Aragaki imagined the sound of hell for a moment, and it seemed to be very similar to what he had heard.

Don't...... Is this hell here?

Aragaki suddenly became curious.

In such a high-temperature and high-pressure environment, although he was a little uncomfortable, he would not be harmed.

In that case, let's explore it.

Thinking of this, Aragaki continued to stretch his body and expand the boundaries of his body.

The red magma, if viewed with human eyes, can be blind in an instant.

However, in a short period of time, Aragaki developed a sensor and generated it on the tentacle.

The tip of the tentacle continues to thrust in.

Aragaki saw a picture that he had never imagined.

Over here......

It's hell.

The boiling magma in which he was like a cauldron of boiling oil.

The bubbles are like fried ghosts.

Don't...... Is this hell?
