Volume 3 Interstellar Expedition Chapter 58 The Torrent at the Bottom of the Cave
Funnick fired several shots with a ray gun, but instead of dodging, the opponent went straight up and grabbed the gun. The force field protection has failed, and even with a weapon in the face of the robot's strength, Funnick still misses again. Seeing that the gun was taken away by the rhinoceros man who was on fire, and the muzzle of the gun was turned to himself, Funnick couldn't help but close his eyes and reminisce about his life, it was worth it!
The ray didn't tear apart his body as expected, and there was a sound of breaking through the air, and the silver-plated glittering Soul Axe cleverly avoided all the intricate pipelines and reached between the two before they could reach the borderless.
The "Burning Man" was defenseless, and the two arms holding the gun were cut off whole. Then the limp leg of the cowman who landed fell to the ground fell to his knees, and the other leg was half-bent to support his entire body. Wujiang wanted to launch an attack and directly knock the burning man to pieces, but the lame leg made his movements uncoordinated, so he dispelled his thoughts, recalled the soul axe that had recovered his energy and threw it again.
The single axe became a double axe, and the double axe became a 4 axe, all the way into dense axe pieces, cutting back and forth, the rhinoceros man on fire could not resist such a dense attack, all the joints were chopped, and he slowly collapsed to the ground, and the flames also weakened.
Furnick and Wujiang turned over the body of the rhinoceros whose flames were gradually extinguishing, and under the steel skeleton, there was a spacious space enough to accommodate them, and in the space, there was an external environment display, control buttons, and unused corroded iron sheets, signal jammers, signal transmission devices, and other unknown instruments and tools.
"Oh no, he was shelled by his golden cicada again!"
Seeing the scene inside the shell, Funnick was already convinced that someone was manipulating the skin.
At this moment, the maintenance personnel have entered one after another and began to process the flakes attached to the giant water tank. Wujiang lent the Soul Axe to Fortnik, and the two of them continued to pursue the runaway using a flying device.
As the height rises, so does the vibration velocity of the pipe. The sound of hammering was endless. All the pipes have reached the limit of their load.
The water pipes that had been attacked by the ray guns had already shown a "whooshing" flow of water, and the gap was getting bigger and bigger. Ascending to the entrance, Funnick saw that all the metal pieces had begun to crack and corrode, and the entire outer wall of the tank was covered with black spots.
When you return to the ice cellar, the scene is even more shocking. The upper and lower ice cellars have corroded into secret honeycombs, and a small part of the honeycombs have begun to seep water, and the seeping water sprays onto the giant nuclear reactor that has begun to shut down, bursting out with a burst of steam, and the entire space has been filled with steam, and you can't see your fingers.
"Boundless and Funik obey," Aimo's voice came from the communicator. "Ice cellars and water tanks are so corroded that it is impossible to completely interrupt the water circulation and destroy it. The flood is about to strike, and you two will go up from the wellhead to the North Pole to stand by, and I will send an airship to meet you. ”
Listening to Aimo's orders in frustration, Funnick noticed a trace of disturbance in the steam, and he carefully observed the path of the disturbance, which contained an invisible shadow. Funnick knew that the man hidden under Dundun's skin could hide light and shadow in the steam, but he couldn't hide his form.
The hammering sound grew louder and louder, until after the final bang, the hemispherical condenser tube sphere was punctured, and the entire sphere was encased in the nuclear reactor, which had not been completely shut down. Sharp edges have pierced the surface of the central nuclear reactor sphere. At the same time, the entire cave began to hum and vibrate, as if thousands of troops had invaded the bottom of the cave: the flood was about to break out in earnest.
"Follow the instructions of the angels, and you should hurry up first. I went down and pushed the hood away so that the reactor wouldn't explode. Funik looked at Wujiang for a moment of hesitation, and continued: "With such a good axe to protect me, you don't have to worry about me!" ”
Since Funnick insisted on going down, Boundless at this time was no longer the character of sacrificing his life to save people, and flew straight to the North Pole.
With the help of the power of the Soul Axe, Funik pushed the two shields away from the reactor, closed the ice cellar valve completely, and cut off the entire ice cellar hemisphere along the valve, and threw it far into the maintenance cavern.
At this time, the maintenance cave has begun to flow outward, and the waterfall-like high flow is down, which makes the entire space cool down rapidly, and the water vapor that permeates the space quickly cools, and the whole space slowly becomes clear and transparent.
When Funnick was done, he pretended to leave, and at the same time secretly turned on the life detection device, scanning back and forth around the reactor. He knew that if the other side wanted to destroy the whole of Carmon, then blowing this nuclear reactor from the center of the planet could at least cause a massive earthquake.
Suddenly, there was a slight vibration as the detector turned below the twelve-o'clock direction, and Funnick quickly turned around, and the rays were fired in the specified direction, all of which crashed into the transparent barrier and disappeared for no apparent reason.
Funnick drives the Life Detector to the Ray Gun Sight, which keeps moving the Tracker's health signs, and the Ray Gun Follows the Detector to move and shoot.
No matter how strong the shield was, it gradually crumbled under such intense fire, and at the end of Fortnik's muzzle, the alien visitor's stealth suit began to show folds, disturbing the surrounding space. Fortnik could already see the trajectory of the opponent's movement with the naked eye, and the firepower increased again. The invisibility suit has begun to play the picture indiscriminately, sometimes transparent, sometimes inverting the front and rear projections.
Seeing no way to escape, the opponent dropped a small bomb at the nuclear reactor and hid in a cave half occupied by flowing water.
Forge quickly approached the reactor and took down the magnetic time bomb thrown by his opponent and handed it to the evacuating repairman, while he continued to pursue the cave.
The two of them flew back in front of each other against the water in the cave until they reached the underground reservoir that was already full of water.
Funik pursued quickly, but was still unskilled in the handling of the Soul Axe, and failed to reduce the distance to range several times.
Hanes didn't expect this chaser's insight to be so keen. The further you run away, the greater the flow of water gathers. Hanes tried several exits and found that the city of Leaves, which the water pipe leads, is flooded.
Hanes frantically opened the pipe layout plan, aimed at an airship navigation artery, took a deep breath, and dived into the deep water of the underground reservoir.
Funnick was obviously out of rhythm at this time, and hurriedly asked how to open the force field of the Boundless Soul Axe, and then followed the former to dive into the reservoir.
The entire reservoir is already surging with undercurrents, and the water source, which is rarely seen in normal times, is now surrounded by the lion man. There was no light at the bottom of the dark vault, and Fortnik turned on the searchlight and shone in all directions, but there was no trace of the infiltrator.
Fortnik calmly analyzed that if the opponent wants to escape, the best choice in the case of broken force field protection is to find a nearby navigation channel.
He quickly dialed Bomic's communications, and Levin, who rushed to hear the news, also assisted in importing the coordinates of the nearest passage specified by Bmick into the Soul Axe. The axe turned into a transparent streamline under Levin's manipulation, quickly pushing the water towards its destination.
Carried by the submarine transformed from the Soul Axe, Fortnik witnesses the devastation of the entire underworld, with all the water pipes connected to the underground reservoir destroyed. The airship jumped out of the reservoir and came to a vast space, Funnick knew that this was a certain leaf city, and the canopy at this time had been soaked in water, and at the "bottom of the water", the dots of "lights" that had not been affected by the water pressure showed the prosperity of this place. The "submarine" passes by the central nave, which has broken off at the waist and has begun to work on the restoration of the central church, and begins to climb vertically. New bricks have been added to the broken walls, and half of the broken glass has been replaced. And now the world is facing an even more terrible disaster.
As the submarine continued upward, a pigman suddenly crashed into the transparent partition, causing Funnick to retreat in shock. When I looked closely, I found that the empty pupils were dead. Funnick turned his gaze from the church below to the top, and the entire Ye City was covered with corpses, and it turned out that the artificial sky screen of the dome was not half broken, but half covered by these corpses.
The submarine shuttled rapidly among the corpses, and after crashing through many corpses, it pierced through a hole near the center of the dome, and the water pressure affected the water flow here was particularly strong, and the wreckage of the water and the airship was mixed with countless corpses to push the submarine forward rapidly. After about 30 seconds of progress, the submarine turned into a larger passage, and the current coming out of Yecheng continued to flow downward. This passage is the destination designated by Bomic. Half of the passage was flooded by the water level, and Phonik manipulated the Soul Axe to transform into a flying pedal and swooped forward in the airy layer of the passage.
At the end of the passage, sure enough, a black spot appeared, Funnick took out a ray gun, but the moment he aimed, he found that the other party was not the right size, and he looked at it and saw that it was a cattle man who was fleeing for his life, and the more Funnick chased forward, the more people fled for their lives.
In the midst of the chaos, Fournick returned to his composure. An alien flees in the crowd, then he faces not only his own pursuit, but also the attack of these insects and orcs, so the best way to take the water route is to take the water route in this passage between the water and the water.
Thinking of this, Funnick turned on the life detector again, pointed the mouth of the instrument at the water, and scanned it as he flew forward.
The water level was getting higher and higher, and the back of the huge passage was already rippling, and the ripples of the forward push continued to engulf the people fleeing for their lives. Finally, 60 meters in the water ahead, the vital sign information of the same rapid advance was discovered.
The moment he was targeted by Fournick, Hanis was already aware of it. After looking at the topographic map again, he had already chosen a route to evacuate.
Hanes weaves and turns between the alleys that connect to the passages, expertly weaving between the trails, making it more difficult for Funik to track above the water. Hanis made a sharp turn to widen the distance, and then ran up the road against the current.
The water level soared in the upward corridor, but it was still not as fast as the two of them escaping and chasing. The higher you go, the less water you can dive and escape. Fennick didn't understand why the other party had chosen such a route. By the end of the tunnel at the end of the channel, the rising current was already at the end of the crossbow, and the passage was occupied by the descending current, and the two opposite currents converged to form a chaotic torrent at the junction. Hanes had already predicted the situation ahead, adjusted the energy release in advance, and the whole person was like a swordfish, moving forward quickly.
Funnick, who was chasing behind, was not aware of the situation ahead, and when he saw the former speeding up, he thought he was about to cross the high slope above, and he also accelerated after him.
The gradient became steeper and steeper, and as he approached the top of the slope, Hanes quickly adjusted his course and stabbed diagonally to the upper right, while driving the propulsion to the maximum. In the rear, Funnick thought that the former was using this method because of lack of power, so he couldn't help but urge him to accelerate again.
At the end of the slope, it is intersected with a larger, transverse sectional passage. As early as the velocity of the lower channel, Hanes had already judged that the channel was filled with water. The transverse passage had a huge height difference along its extended course, and although Hanes adjusted the direction of travel in advance, and the moment he entered the transverse passage when he reached the top of the slope, the direction of progress almost became to the right, but the transverse water flow was too rapid, and finally grazed the edge of the junction on the left side of the passage.
Funnick, who was chasing in the rear, was not so lucky, and the sudden increase in the water level at the top of the slope gave him time to understand what was going on, so he was carried back to the depths of the earth by the sinking torrent that rushed horizontally, and the Soul Axe that changed into the shape of a "surfboard" did not have time to retract, leaving the soles of Fortnik's feet, and drifted somewhere.
Hanes was finally freed from the pursuit, it would be a long time to fly to the surface at this speed, the torrent was getting stronger and stronger, and the fleeing people were gathering ahead, and he found a useful one among the many broken airships in the messy passage. After briefly repairing the broken circuit, the water level had risen from the airship's feet to waist-high height, Hanes used his personal propulsion device to push the airship up to move away from the water level, and activated it four times before starting the airship away. Pre-set the exit route and speed up your escape from the flooded world!
