If the scene he saw before was the battlefield of the end of the world, then the scene in front of him was a literal hell of death.

Flames and lava are roaring, tumbling, boiling. Large bubbles poured out of the magma pool's water, bursting like the Death Giant's eyeballs, splattering with a liquid like a red mist. The air was filled with a heavy smell of sulfur, which was twisted and transpired in the extreme heat, causing the entire area to tremble and shake, as if the gates of hell were about to open.

The lava pool was expanding, and the low hill on which he was standing had been eroded into a cliff. From time to time, gravel and sand fell from the bottom into the pool, turning into boiling rock water in an instant. But none of these scenes were enough to make Watanabe stunned.

Something else shook him.

Right in the middle of the magma pool, a huge diamond-shaped spot of light suspended in midair.

It was a man tall and seemed to be composed purely of light. The bright yellow light formed its outer edge, and the heavy firelight formed its core, and it stood erect in mid-air, a little bit of bright red in the center that seemed to be a substance, as if it had a life of its own.

Underneath the thing, the fire in the magma was attracted by it and vine-like tentacles poked out, sending heat through it. The tentacles of the flames twisted at a frantic pace—at first Watanabe thought it was an irregular physical movement, but after staring at it for a few seconds, he realized......

It seemed to have real life.

That twisted rhythm seems to be its "heartbeat".

The thing was shaped like an eye. A huge eye made of light and flame.

This scene shocked him inexplicably, and he thought he was still in a dream several times.

He wears a protective suit that embodies the cutting-edge technology of human beings. But the scene in front of me is like a magical stage. The stark and strong contrast made him subconsciously raise his hand and tap on his helmet. The dull sound reminds Watanabe that everything is real.

It's as real as a nightmare.

There's no need to even release another detector - that thing is undoubtedly the third species!

It was at this time that the core of the "eye" changed.

The bright red became even more intense, so thick that it was slightly darker. It's as if all the heat is absorbed by a little, and the absorbed heat source has no time to replace the loss. The real "blackness" appeared—the point in the center, which suddenly lost its brilliance.

The next moment, a crack opened in the dark "pupil", and one eyeball rolled strangely, looking straight at Watanabe's clothes on the low mountain.

That's right. It's an eyeball—a real, flesh-and-blood eyeball.

The moment the two sides looked at each other. The coolness jumped from the tail vertebrae to the top of the head, and the temperature regulation system in the three-defense suit seemed to lose its effect at this moment, and Watanabe's body was cold, his hands and feet were numb, and a gurgling sound came from his throat. But I don't have the courage to take even half a step!

The eyeballs looked at him without the slightest emotion. Some powerful consciousness came from the raging and boiling lava lake.

Watanabe felt as if a thousand Holy Spirits were chanting loudly in his mind. A thousand more demons are whispering timidly. A cacophony of voices bombarded his consciousness. The emotions of good and evil occupied his mind. In the midst of the waves and storms, he subconsciously opened his mouth and spat out a word in a low voice.

But at the same time, the magma roared, and a new round of blazing torrents erupted into the sky. He wrapped that eye in it and brought it into the deepest part of the lake as it fell.

The loud roar drowned out his shout, and all the other companions could hear was a faint scale.

And then they saw ......

Watanabe's suit, on the low hill in the distance, slowly lowered the suitcase in his hand.

But instead of leaning over to open the box, he put his hands on his helmet and twisted slightly.

Everyone understood what this action meant, and an urgent and noisy shout rang out in the communication channel: "What are you doing, Captain?!" ”

But the other party was silent, and even his breathing did not become short.

The next moment, the helmet was removed.

The overwhelming heat wave suddenly surged, and in just three breaths, Watanabe's face was swollen with dense blisters. The blisters burst in the constant heat, and red and yellow bodily fluids flowed all over his face, dripping with grease onto the gray-white suit.

Three of them couldn't help but take a step, and as they ran towards him, they yelled, "Put on your helmet!" What are you doing! Are you crazy?! ”

But Watanabe began to take off his three-guard suit again—starting with the gloves.

Like his face, the skin of his hands immediately twisted and deformed, and then burst one oily blister after another. However, he didn't seem to feel the pain, or maybe it didn't affect his thinking. He slowly bent over to free himself from his bulky shell.

Two loud pops were heard.

It was his eyes—they burst into marshmallow-like flocculent mass in the heat, and large streams of blood ran from the corners of their eyes all over his face.

The three men who rushed towards him were hoarse, stumbling through the dead trees, not even caring about the danger of their suits being scratched. However, they came a step too late after all. When they ran to the foot of the mountain, less than a dozen meters away from Watanabe's side, the people on the top of the mountain turned around.

A little spark fell on his uniform, and the whole dry clothes suddenly burst into flames.

So the three of them stopped.

Because they saw Watanabe's face.

In the rising flames, the man had a satisfied and peaceful smile on his face. The smile looked hideous and terrifying on a bloody face, like a smiling face from the unquenchable flames of the abyss of hell.

But he left a sentence at the end. He took a deep breath, stretched out his arms to the sky, and sighed with the most powerful force, "What a joy this is! ”

Then Watanabe's body leaned back and fell heavily into the magma, disappearing.

Everyone saw it.

For the next five seconds, the communication channel was silent.

Among the three people under the mountain is also the vice-captain who can take over the post of Watanabe. He swallowed in his helmet and said in a dry voice, "Be on guard. ”

It was the only command he could think of at this point.

The two people around him executed it in stiff movements. Then he looked up at the top of the mountain where Watanabe had just stood, and hesitated for a few seconds, after all, he didn't have the courage to step on it again to see what was going on.

After a moment of silence, he said, "Here...... Can the range of the detector be ......"

"Yes." There was a reply from the other end.

"Then here it is."

The three of them opened one of the remaining detectors, but none of them looked at the box left behind at the top of the mountain—as if they were deliberately avoiding something.

The arachnid is activated. Stretch out eight thin feet, step on uneven rocks and branches, and climb up with a clanging sound. Their eyes followed the little robot, which was terrified and panicked. But responsibility and mission force them to stay where they are and wait for the results, for the unknown risks they may be imminent.

After the robot disappears to the top of the mountain. The delicate suction cups on the fine claws allow it to work in more difficult terrain, and as a disposable consumable for this mission, it is coated with a heat-resistant coating. After crossing the summit, it grabbed the rocks on the cliff and bumped, slowed down, and carefully continued its descent downward.

However, under the impact of wave after wave of qi, the stones had already begun to loosen. After descending a few meters, a whole rock with an arachnid robot fell down the mountain.

However, on the screen in front of the three people behind the mountain, there is no red dot representing a possible supernatural being.

Small probes are housed in the robot's nest, and the situation of falling into the magma has long been taken into account.

The robot continued to advance one meter through the magma before being completely destroyed, and the power module in the nest immediately activated, causing a faint spark to explode before it could completely lose control, throwing the detector wrapped in heat-resistant material far into the sky.

The gray-white probe flew through the smoke and sparks, eventually falling into the magma again.

However, at the moment when the communication was completely obscured by the heat and viscous fluid, it faithfully sent out a set of distinctive signals.

So on the screen in front of the three people behind the mountain, a dazzling red light flashed.

It's right there.

The deputy captain immediately shouted in a low voice: "Target confirmed, retreat!" ”

The others carried out the order silently and quickly. Because even in this heat-hungry forest area, even if the life support system in the three-defense suit still plays a role faithfully, everyone feels that the surrounding area is cold and full of vicious hostility.

Watanabe's smile before he died will be etched in their minds for a long time to come.

Two days later, the Secret Service received news from the Inspection Department that there was no doubt that there were species in the Chiyan volcanic lake. The news also came with details of the situation before Watanabe's death. That strange way of dying was unheard of, and no amount of daring speculation could guess what had happened to him before he died.

But Li Zhen was slightly relieved when he heard the news - no matter what means were used, the species only killed one person. If it's Chiyu or Adam...... There is no chance that the others will survive.

That means, then, that thing is not capable.

Then some doubts arose in his mind, and the previous worries came to his mind again—the vague memories in his mind told him that this third species should be in a semi-awake state. That said, it should have been more powerful than Adam or Chiyou.

But now...... What's going on?

What's going on with the pool of magma?

Adam and Chiyou can influence ordinary people. However, this one, can even the capable person control it? (To be continued.) )
