Chapter 19: The Timebringer Soul Tremble
Quiet, a quieter aura enveloped the entire team, and the sound in the ears was the click of the reconnaissance mecha walking ahead, and the front was gray, and soon you could see two large ring doors, which led to the palace behind the huge stone wall.
Bai Ming and I jumped on the stone pillars, both to see the situation of the entire team and to deal with the unknown state that would arise next.
Further on, the main chamber of the ruins, the underground caverns encased the palace in its entirety, making it impossible to scout the interior from above. The team also stopped at the end of the corridor and waited for the next order.
I jumped down from a high place and scanned the surroundings, and Du Fei was still analyzing the inside of the ruins we were going to next as a scholar. Bai Ming methodically directed the logistics staff to walk through the corridor and come to this large platform, while some of them stayed below to scan the garden area.
"It can't be, it can't be, our equipment can't be useless here." Du Fei was talking to himself alone.
"What's wrong, what's going on?" I walked over and asked.
"You see, our pathfinder ball loses its signal completely once it reaches the inside of the palace, and even the most basic radar equipment can't penetrate these strange structures. I requested a full array scan from above, but there was only an image of the exterior and no signal could be seen through the interior. ”
Shao Xun stared at the image of the smart computer on the side, and seemed to be reluctant to give up, and after a while, Bai Ming also came to us, and everyone looked nervous about the current situation.
"That means we don't have any way to get the information inside except to break in like blind people?"
Du Fei closed his eyes and nodded, a little disagreeing, but helpless. Bai Ming's face was not particularly good, and I said to Shaoxun: "It's okay, it's not like we haven't experienced this situation before." Shaoda, what are we afraid of with our hard ideas and well-armed people. ”
Shao Xun's smile was also a little helpless: "Like a fool, it used to be an inanimate excavation activity, but now it is energy seizure, not to mention the troublesome strange bird stone carvings outside, if there is really an energy body crystal inside, it is completely possible to make an ordinary creature have a huge mutation, everyone has read the information of country m sent by Bai Lao, the existence of Dr. Heavenly Chosen is very likely to be replicated here, if it is still in the opponent's home field, it is even more difficult for us to do it." ”
Bai Ming nodded: "Du Fei, do you have any better way?" Du Fei spread his hands and expressed helplessness: "Unless the headquarters is called in a real matrix radar, it is possible to penetrate the depths of the surface at the four corners of the ruins, and run non-stop scanning day and night, there must be some existence in it that blocks the entry of external signals and inhibits the leakage of internal energy, which is the key, if this place is not Los Angeles, the excavation will even be a long time late." ”
The Matrix Radar has always been used by the Alliance to monitor the dynamics of the Empire, and its huge size and huge energy consumption cannot help us, let alone long-distance transportation. Just when we were at a loss, Du Fei suddenly panicked: "Everyone, let's not discuss how to enter the ruins palace, my radar shows that there is an unstable lifeform approaching us quickly, let the logistics personnel dodge!" ”
Toot ~ Toot ~ The sirens on everyone's bodies remembered, and suddenly the whole audience began to panic, we spread out our formation, ready to meet the enemy moving towards us, Du Fei stared at the smart computer: "It's close, it's close, it's so fast!" It's so fast! ”
With a bang, a sonic boom came from above us, and the stone pillars fell with a bang, and the reconnaissance mecha quickly blocked in front of us, resisting the fall of the rubble. After the dust cleared around the platform, we looked around, and in the largest stone pillar in the middle, a large black bird looked down on us!
The former city in the sky, the former overlord of the sky, the darkness still can't block its brilliant light. The pitch-black feathers of the big bird are mixed with pale golden down feathers, and the beak and beak are like dark gold, and the big bird maintains the unique characteristics of birds, strong legs, slender wings, and maintains a graceful standing posture, calm and elegant. The unique temperament makes the space seem to have an airflow all the time, which is very different from the monkey-faced monster birds encountered before.
Du Fei forgot to look at it: "What a beautiful creature, I remember!" It has its name engraved on the big clock! Vanti! It is the Voanti, the monarch of birds. ”
Shao Xun snorted coldly: "The more beautiful it is, the more dangerous it is, a man should understand this truth, don't be stunned, let's try to spread it out as much as possible, so that when it attacks one side, the rest of the people can seize the gap and take the opportunity to attack." ”
We did not carry out the operation, and maintained the principle that the enemy does not move, and the graceful Vanti looked at everyone on the scene, especially when I was here, and stopped for a long time.
"Let's see if we can avoid provoking it, it feels tricky, let's move slowly into the palace." Bai Ming made a suggestion and led the team to start moving. As soon as I was about to approach the palace, the elegant Vanti made a voice, and I heard it clearly: "If you don't come close, you will die." ”
I shouted at Vanti, "We need energy to deal with a powerful enemy, can the Bird King be accommodating and let us enter the ruins to find the Yajin Magic Plate." ”
When I shouted, I realized that I was the only one in the audience who could understand the language of the Bird King, and sure enough, the shouts of me and Vanti made the group of people around me stunned in place.
"Get out of here, get out of here. Otherwise I will attack, I have been asleep for a thousand years, and I will die to keep the secret. "Get out of here, human!"
Fan Ti's voice was sharp and ugly, I repeated its words to everyone, everyone's face was not good-looking, everyone looked at Bai Ming, the long sword in Bai Ming's hand trembled, and her heart couldn't suppress the excitement.
"We can't retreat, we have achieved the first results, we have met the gatekeeper, and the treasure is at the back of the palace." It can't be said that it is quick success, but I can also understand Bai Ming's thoughts, and when I meet this kind of opponent who can improve my combat experience and prestige, I am excited and courageous.
"You can't go, the group is here for the things in the palace, deal with it carefully, we will know the opponent's moves after a few beatings, but we must save our lives first." Shaoxun made an inopportune joke.
I protected Du Fei behind him, let him enter the arch of the palace first to dodge, and when he saw that we did not retreat, he attacked directly from the platform and swooped down on us.
"Hide!"
The tremendous air pressure shook the surroundings around, and we made a few quick jumps away from where we had stood, for there had been a large crater washed out of Vanti.
It's fast, it's really fast. I've slowed down for a long time, and it's still rushing at us at an unstoppable speed. Shaoxun was guarding Du Fei at the entrance of the palace, Bai Ming had already opened the full state of the combat uniform, and there was a clanging sound at each joint, it seemed that she also used all her strength to dodge Fan Ti just now.
"I'm the Guardian, you get out of here."
Fan Ti stood in the deep pit, still giving a warning, and I said to Bai Ming: "We have no way to enter the palace except to defeat it, we must take the initiative to attack, otherwise we have no chance of winning." ”
I took a deep breath, and Bai Ming had already burst out on the spot, rushing towards Vanti, the sharp sword in his hand slashing at Vanti's wings.
Clang! Fan Ti only used the tips of his wings to block Bai Ming's fierce attack, Bai Ming's wrist flicked, and the swords crackled, directly converted into a whip to Fan Ti's back.
The blades of the sword bones were barbed, and they were whipped at once on the feathers of Vanti, restricting the movement of the big bird. And between the lightning and thunder, I also rushed to Fanti, pulled out the nanorope and tried to choke its throat, but before I could feel it, I saw Bai Ming's body fall down weakly.
"Lord White!" Du Fei, who could see clearly on the other side, exclaimed, and Fan Ti's other wing was pinched into a fist and hit Bai Ming's abdomen.
Seeing Bai Ming injured, my anger rushed to my head, the nanorope was thrown out, Fanti caught the rope that was thrown over, I secretly exploded, and the miniature bomb on the nanorope that I had just put with the power of time exploded. This is my small means, but also with the ability to research, if I can't change the opponent's time to respond, I will change the movement time of the weapon to make the opponent unpredictable, the strong ability of the mastery of their own body can already be unaffected by external objects, my time power can only act on the opponent who is weaker than me.
A burst of fly ash drifted by, and when I saw Vanti tilting his head, it used its fastest speed to dodge, but it was still injured by my sneak attack on the shoulder, and most of the feathers had been blown up, and there was a thick layer of fluff inside, as if it had not hurt the flesh. Fan Ti moved his injured right wing, and it didn't seem to be a big deal, and the sound of a bone clicked a few times. I really want to calm down, but the strength and anger of the opponent is that I have lost my mentality a little, if we follow the normal mercenary mission, such a powerful enemy we will call for aerial fire or even a drastic change.
In the next second, Vanti burst out at a faster speed and rushed towards me, slowing down, slowing down again! I tried my best to push the eyeball necklace, and when Vanti entered my realm, it was bound to be affected by the forces of time.
Five meters, four meters, three meters, I saw that Fan Ti was still not fast, and I was a little panicked, and finally reached the effective range of two meters, I saw Fan Ti's figure begin to pause, and I also saw a slight change in expression on Fan Ti's bird face. It was a little unbelievable, and I was even more unbelievable, because it was the first opponent to perceive the effect of the power of time on me, and I hurriedly injected more mental power, and the eyeball necklace also reached its brightest light, and Vanti finally stopped at a meter in front of me.
Its left wing still didn't stop, slowly fanning it towards me. I repeated the old trick and pulled the power of time backwards, this time the power was particularly heavy, Fanti was resisting, the closer its wings got to me, the slower it became, and the more panicked I became, gritting my teeth and pulling the light blue power of time back desperately, give me back, give me back!
Between my fingers, the light blue power of time began to gradually speed up the order of flow, Vanti opened his mouth to make a sound, but everything in this field has no concept of time, its words cannot be transmitted, the energy flows around me, gradually emitting golden light, I feel as if my ability is evolving, and it is even more urging this golden power of time to envelop Vanti.
Vanti flew away from my position like a rocket, slammed into the pillar and bounced back in front of me, nailed to the ground, its flesh still suppressed by its golden light.
"Alcher's power, it's really interesting, I knew that this world was so interesting, so I wouldn't be a guardian here, but it's a pity that the lord won't agree." Vanti muttered a hoarse voice in his mouth.
"Do you know my powers?"
"Wow!"
Vanti didn't answer me, and with a scream, he broke through my shackles, his wings turned into knives and slashed upward, and I grabbed the power of time with one hand, and the laser sword in the other hand had already burst out, stabbing at Vanti's throat, even if Vanti tried his best to dodge, the attack could not be retracted. I struck a successful blow, and the laser sword stabbed Fan Ti through the heart, and Fan Ti's hand blade also hit my body, and the battle suit burst open, even the alloy compartment in the middle shattered, and a large hole was cut from the right chest to the abdomen.
Fanti's scream resounded through the ruins, breaking my laser sword and staggering backwards, while I fell straight to the spot, a cool and familiar feeling from my feet to my brain, oh yo yo, I inhaled the cool air unconsciously.
Even though most of the flesh and blood were already exposed, and the healing system inside the combat suit quickly sprayed trauma medicine on my body to help me stop many injuries, I no longer had the strength to use the power of time to repair my body even a little, so I could only wait for the rescue of my companions.
Shaoxun ran out with a bang, and he could hear a lot of movement. He hurried to my side to check on the injury, I opened my eyes and said to him, "Why are you here, whether that big bird is dead or not, I am dying of pain." ”
Shao Xun looked at my injury and felt a little distressed: "It doesn't move, it should be subdued, you kid really dare to fight, you actually take this ancient weapon with a move, I don't think the wound will be fatal, I am afraid that when any girl rolls the sheets with you in the future, I will be scared, such a big scar." I smiled and asked Shaoxun to see how Bai Ming was doing. But before Shaoxun passed, his face changed, and he didn't have to guess to know that Fan Ti would definitely be able to act again.
There was another violent fluctuation, and I saw that Fan Ti was injured and pushed Shaoxun more than three meters away, and the cracks in the ground raised a large amount of stone and soil. Fan Ti still had a laser sword inserted in his body, without the slightest blood, and his wings and Shaoxun's palms pushed each other, forming a stalemate.
Although Shaoxun was wearing a heavy protective suit, the strength of his hands was not weak at all, which may have something to do with my stabbing of Vanti. In the duel of brute force, whoever has the upper hand may have a whole body impact on the next damage, and the two compete with each other, but I still see that Shaoxun's strange power is a little unable to resist Fan Ti.
Powerful, incomprehensibly powerful. The monarch of this bird clan can no longer be fought with ordinary mercenary weapons, which reminds me of the scene where thousands of people were desperate with photon weapons and sea monsters, just such a large-scale battle of thermal weapon strafing, and the mercenaries still did not get the slightest benefit, and now the top three mercenaries have been put down by two, and I really can't think of a better way than to gasp.
