Chapter 3: The Legacy of the Scourge for a Thousand Years Part I
"Xiaoqing, Xiaozi, pack up your things, let's get out of here." Xing Juan said with a solemn expression.
Whether it is qualifications, experience or experience, Xing Juan is the best candidate to play the role of 'eldest woman' among the three daughters. What's more, compared to Xiaoqing and Xiaozi, two weak girls, Xing Juan is a practitioner who has really been born and died, and she was also an elite member of the Northern Region of Thunder and Fire.
Preparing to come from the emergency escape channel, no matter what the origin is, Xing Juan thinks that she and Xiaoqing Xiaozi have a reason not to see. In this world, except for Luo Ling, they have no relatives. Become a bargaining chip for others to blackmail Luo Ling, and it is enough to make such a mistake once.
In fact, after experiencing the profound lesson last time, the three girls have privately practiced emergency measures many times, so that in the event of an emergency, they can get out of the scene as quickly as possible. Xiao Qing took the space ring thrown by Xing Juan, neatly packed up the utensils that were placed, and Xiao Zi leaned against the wall and began to wear protective clothing.
Ordinary protective clothing is somewhat like an anti-nuclear suit, the upper and lower clothes are whole, and the wrists, ankles and necks have zippers, drapes and belt buckles, which are connected with special gloves, boots and helmets respectively, mainly to prevent magic energy radiation, and also have soft protection capabilities like combat uniforms, but if you encounter monsters, you can only pray that the opponent's fangs and claws will not get wet.
Xing Juan put on her magic weapon gloves and walked briskly to the elevator at the end of the small corridor. I didn't see her chanting any incantations, and the hand with the magic weapon fist turned over, and in the palm of her hand, a golden flame jumped endlessly, very lively.
The effect of double cultivation with Luo Ling is significant, although the internal strength is a slow accumulation process, but when the dark magic power in Luo Ling's body is more and more seriously mixed with the internal strength, and passes through Xing Juan's body in a special way, after reaching the circulation, Xing Juan's original magic power with a lot of impurities is refined and purified, and the spiritual power is also refined and purified. Moreover, for Luo Ling, the mixture of mana and internal strength that was too negative and had affected the stability of his power balance was tantamount to the best tonic for Xing Juan at this stage. Heaven and earth are clear, women belong to yin, and the power of feminine improves the hidden dangers left by Xing Juan's demonization and transformation, and also makes up for Xing Juan's unstable and easily exhausted strength caused by pulling seedlings.
Of course, if she wants to truly return to the cultivation track of improving her ability on the premise of a solid foundation, Xing Juan will need to work hard for a long time, but just the changes in this period of time have already made her deeply appreciate the joy of increasing her strength and developing towards a benign development. Xing Juan has enough reason to believe that her current combat power has more than doubled compared to when she first met Luo Ling.
Call! Xing Juan flicked her hand, and the golden flame flew towards the arched elevator door like a mass of mud, and then attached to the stainless steel shell of the elevator door with full viscosity. It seems to be just a layer of thick paper painted with metallic paint, and the stainless steel shell of the elevator door is burned through a hole by the golden flame at a variable speed with the naked eye, and those golden fires continue to ablate unrelentingly along the outer edge of the hole, and the orange-red iron juice falls like wax droplets against the wall of the elevator door, occasionally splashing on the polypropylene carpet, which is a scorched black and green smoke, sizzling sound.
A small packet of high explosives was set for 3 minutes and thrown through the melted hole. This explosive is safer than the stink bombs dropped in World War II, and unless the countdown ends, it will not detonate even if it falls from a height of thousands of meters.
"Sister Juan, we're ready." Xiao Qing was tying a buckle in her left hand at the end, and Xiao Zi, who had already finished dressing, was reviewing whether there was anything left out of the belt.
Xing Juan pressed the gate control switch one after another. Said: "Let's go, evacuate according to the predetermined plan." ”
Not long after the three girls left the hidden monitoring room, boom! A muffled explosion emanated from the bottom of the deep elevator shaft. A few seconds later, a wave of fire rushed up the shaft, gurgling! The elevator door was squeezed out of shape, and in the melted hole in the door, the heat wave was like an airplane engine ignition, whirring out several meters away.
After a few more minutes, there was a faint tooth-aching sound of metal tearing and twisting from under the shaft, and after a while, click! Click! The rhythmic sound grew louder and louder from far and near, as if someone was swinging a pickaxe all the way up the wall from the bottom of the elevator shaft.
Finally, the strange sound rose to the top and stopped abruptly. A pair of dusty withered hands gripped the edge of the still-red shiny elevator door, and creaked...... The tooth-sore sound sounded again, and the elevator door was torn open like a piece of paper, and then a dried corpse with eyes as red as the flames of hell came out.
The corpse was dressed in bloodstained and cracked armor, no helmet, no hair, sunken eyes, and a dark complexion, shriveled but shiny with oil. The agility of the dry corpse is not inferior to that of a normal person, it walks quickly, patrolling around the monitoring room, its eyes finally stay on the monitor screen, as if searching for something, and finally, with a smile, it skillfully pressed down the mechanism that opened the passage gate.
Going up the ladder, the dried corpse entered the container and followed the only way to the hangar. Scarlet's gaze looked around, and soon locked on to a group of tool cabinets against the wall, and in a flash, he came to the container box directly opposite the tool cabinet.
Reaching out and pulling the door, the door was hidden, and the dry corpse opened the door with both hands, and said in a torn voice, "Come out, ladies and ladies." I know you're in there. ”
No one answered.
"Hehehe...... "The dry corpse let out a few weird dry laughs, like a ghost crying." Since you're shy, I'll have to invite you personally. Saying that, I saw that its right hand was volleyed into the air, and a wooden box in the container was actually taken into its hand by the air, and then flicked it at will, and the wooden box turned over and flew out more than ten meters directly, tom! There was a big earthquake, the dust flew, the wooden box shattered, and inside it turned out to be neatly stacked metal fittings.
"Come out, I can already see you shivering." The dry corpse said in a playful tone into the depths of the dark container.
Still no one answered.
"Come out!" The dry corpse shouted violently, the sound was like a wolf's howl, and the mouth opened so wide that it cracked from the corner of the mouth to the root of the ear, revealing the rotten teeth inside and the forked tongue like a snake core.
Whew! Boom! The wooden boxes in the container were taken into the hands of the dried corpses one by one, and then thrown away, but unfortunately, the wooden boxes were gone, and the containers were empty.
"Ah............h
Let's watch the fantasy channel of Literature Network, more exciting content is waiting for you**********
Luo Ling hadn't been to the underground research base for a while. When he was still on Anshun Street, Luo Ling had discussed with his family that the energy of the underground research base was almost depleted, and if it was not remedied within three months, at least those F-37 biological combat weapons wearing old-fashioned modular armor and huge and sharp claws, as well as more than 100 'Thousand Eyes', more than 300 'Phantoms', and even the extremely impressive undead titanium alloy giant would be released. This is the program he set when he returned.
Now more than 50 days have expired, and the estimated situation has not happened. Therefore, Luo Ling made a simple judgment that at the latest, two months ago, Qingjiao's first action team had already come to the underground research base, and successfully entered the base area and the Extreme Secret Research Institute.
So what is the reason why two months later, there is still a rescue team or a support group here? Luo Ling was puzzled.
As the first destination to use the shadow plane to move, Luo Ling was very impressed with the conceptual coordinates of the central control room of the underground research base, and likewise, he also remembered the layout of the settings here. So when he came to the central control room this time, he was really surprised by the view.
If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, it would have been hard to believe that this place in front of you was once the research base that he, Song Yizhou and others tried so hard to receive the world for their own use, which could be described as brand-new. From the outside, the epoch-dripping, rusty, smelly sewers that have been used for hundreds of years also seem to be a little better than here.
In addition to dust, almost all the decay phenomena related to time that Luo Ling could think of have been reflected here. Fires, floods, it's like it was just twenty minutes ago. In some places, sparks are spreading and burning, in other places sewage is gurgling and dripping, and in other places it is as if it is inside an old heating well pipe, and steam is snorting.
All the corridors and rooms are electrified, but many lamps have been struck, and a considerable number of them are flickering and flickering, and even sparks are shining. All kinds of equipment with rusty spots were scattered everywhere, as if they had been smashed and robbed from room to room.
Of course, it is impossible to manipulate the instrument, but Luo Ling saw that the green light for the AI system to work was on. "Could it be that the AI here has evolved into a ghost as well?" Luo Ling glanced at it and thought maliciously.
Walking in this corrupt world, Luo Ling had a hunch that he and everyone must have missed something very important in the previous expedition, Luo Ling guessed that if the world was about space, then what everyone missed was probably about time.
"Ah............h Of course, no one would think that this anger would be positive and well-intentioned, just as no one would expect to meet angels in hell.
The changes here made Luo Ling a little unsure of which direction he should go from. To be more precise, he knew that this place already represented a bunch of troubles, a crisis, and he hesitated whether he should go deeper. To be honest, it's full of attractions, crises, and always danger and opportunity. However, Luo Ling is dragging his family now, and he knows that what he needs most now is not to take risks, but to precipitate, from mentality to life, in order to digest the strength he has gained during this time, straighten out all kinds of complicated information, and arrange his family to get rid of worries.
"Okay, it needs to be renamed the research base of the Underground Neurological Hospital, I'm very interested in the secrets behind you, but this time, I won't play with you." Luo Ling finally defeated his desire with reason. Although he knew that the opportunity would not come, he knew even more about the trade-offs now.
The door of the shadow plane opened not far in front of him, and the air around him, twisted, like flowing water falling into the abyss, caved into the door, and on the other side of the door, the gray world was waiting for him to enter.
"Is it just gone? Luo Ling? A familiar voice sounded behind Luo Ling, with a casual lazy taste, as well as the arrogance engraved in his bones.
Luo Ling didn't look back, just frowned. "It was a real surprise. I thought your soul, including yours, had turned into dust that could not be broken again. Xuanyuan Lei fell to the son. ”
"Hmph, hahaha......" The laughter can be described as bizarre, with chagrin and unwillingness, as well as relief and excitement. It's rare that you still remember a little person like me. ”
"It's really modest, Xuanyuan Gongzi is immortal, he has adventures, he seems to be the hero of great things, how can he be a small person?" Luo Ling turned around, and more than ten meters away from him, a person hung upside down on the top of the corridor, standing with his shoulders crossed, looking like that, as if what was under his feet was the solid earth.
"I am alive because of your honor." Xuanyuan Leiluo seemed to be specifically disgusting Luo Ling, and he explained with a grin: "If you don't collect the 'Space Bead Box' in time, my broken soul will completely disappear in three days. ”
"Wow...... It turns out that I am still your savior. Well, about this kindness, you will have the opportunity to discount it to me in the future. ”
"What do you think of my new look?" The appearance is like a strange life like an oiled corpse, as if he is speechless, his voice is indeed Xuanyuan Leiluo, and in the blood-red eyes, there is also a trace of Luo Ling's familiar look, but this body obviously has nothing to do with Xuanyuan Leiluo's body, because although the armor on this body is damaged in many places, the logo on the left chest is still there, Luo Ling recognizes it, it is the emblem of the frog.
"It's very backbone." Luo Ling nodded and commented, "It seems that from the perspective of lifespan, you are qualified for thousands of generations." I wish you to dominate the rivers and lakes as soon as possible. Luo Ling said and was about to turn around and walk away.
"Wait!" Xuanyuan Lei fell out and stopped. "Don't you want to know what's going on here? Don't you want to know what you missed on your last adventure? ”
"I think it's time for me to go home, my wife cooked a supper, and I'm worried that if I stay any longer, I'll become as slim as you, so it's better to go back to eat and sleep, and it's more meaningful to take care of my body."
"Luo Ling, do you know? If you leave, you will miss out on a rare opportunity to get the 'hourglass of time'. ”
"Oh, is it? Actually, I'm more used to bringing handmade Rolex gold watches, so you might as well give them to the ancient Greeks as a gift. Luo Ling said as he said and disappeared in the air with the portal of the Shadow Plane without looking back.
"Hmm!" Xuanyuan waved his hand angrily, and the dim light formed a rolling smoke, gurgling! The metal walls of the corridor were corroded and destroyed by the smoke, forming a huge hole.
"Young Master, why don't you keep him with 'Time Fades'." In the dark corner behind Xuanyuan Lei, an unusually tall and burly figure asked respectfully. If Luo Ling was still there, he would definitely be able to tell that it was the scimitar master who died in a bloody battle in the Demon Hall who made the sound.
"It's not that I don't want to, but I can't." Xuanyuan Leiluo's bright red eyes flashed with a cold light, "His essence, Demon Descendant, although time can make him old, it can also awaken all the power in his bloodline. Before he dies of old age, it will be enough to kill us like ants. ”
"......"
"You're sorry for today's opportunity, aren't you? The time and place are ......," Xuanyuan Lei smiled in a low voice, "Don't worry, we are all unwilling to be lonely, on this stage of battle, it is only a matter of time before we meet, and it is ...... of time."
One of your light clicks warmed my whole codeword life************
Luo Ling returned to the hidden monitoring room, and saw that it was empty, and his eyes suddenly became extremely sharp, he first sniffed and sniffed, and then came to the elevator door of the emergency escape passage in a flash, and glanced at it, and his figure flashed again, and he had re-entered the shadow plane.
Reappeared, it was already outside the container directly opposite the tool cabinet in the hangar, and stood still for a while, Luo Ling quickly glanced at the surrounding situation, including the wooden boxes that were thrown to the ground, the iron door that was kicked away, and a few shallow footprints on the ground.
"Xing Juan and the three have never been here." Luo Ling told himself with certainty. Analyzing, pondering, and for a moment, his body retreated, and Luo Ling disappeared into the shadow plane again.
The third appearance is at the entrance to the underground access passage, where the wide marble staircase is still there, and the alloy door is still there. "And so it was!" After Luo Ling sniffed and sniffed, he already had a conclusion in his heart.
Walking up the stairs, Luo Ling came to the departure hall, turned directly to the building of the housekeeping department, and after two or three breaths, he easily broke into a certain guest room. It was one of the two rooms that the team used to rest, and he and Xing Juan watched a free hot action movie in the same bed.
In the bathroom, Luo Ling found Xing Juan's three daughters.
The third girl also just arrived, and just set up a camping tent with the product number ut227, which is like a Rubik's cube, disassembled and expanded the space, soundproof, lightproof, and anti-magic energy radiation. Xing Juan used this tent to hide the aura of the three of them, and then draped Luo Ling's black robe that could be unfolded into a large sleeve, if this could still be discovered by the monsters, it could only be said to be providence.
"Juan'er, Xiaoqing, Xiaozi!" Luo Ling called out a little unfeelingly.
As soon as the three girls saw that it was Luo Ling, they immediately threw themselves into his arms, and the four of them hugged each other tightly. Xiao Qing and Xiao Zi's eyes moistened all of a sudden.
"I'm back, safe. Juan'er, you did a good job this time. Luo Ling comforted the three daughters.
"Brother, how did you find us? So fast? Xiaoqing looked up and asked.
"Remember the kyanite pendant I asked you to carry with you at all times?"
"Hmm."
"It's specially processed to emit a very special smell that will be expelled with the exhaust fumes you breathe, and it can be retained for a long time in a magical environment, as long as I have the corresponding item, I can smell it. I found you by speculating and following the smell. ”
"Brother, I'm so scared. As soon as you walked on your front foot, a scoundrel came from under the ground to catch us. Fortunately, Sister Juan is astute. Xiao Zi said timidly.
Luo Lingmo rubbed Xiao Zi's shoulder and said, "Good, Xiao Zi is not afraid, my brother is back." He sighed in his heart: "This is the so-called heroic shortness of breath." My own woman is not well settled, and I can't do anything! ”
"Juan'er, how did you come up with the idea of coming here?" Luo Ling saw that Xing Juan had been silent, so he asked.
"As soon as you left, the first gate of the emergency passage was opened. I think it's all too coincidental, and I'm worried that the secret monitoring room is being monitored. You know, each team member of the descendants of Xuanyuan actually has a certain specific task, as a magician, my is to save important information in the form of magic at critical moments, and as far as I know, the task of the scientific and technological sapper is to install a positioning and monitoring system when repairing a facility somewhere, in case of emergency, although everyone has no famous words, but each other's specific tasks, still know. ”
Luo Ling nodded, "The descendants of Xuanyuan can be unique in this troubled world, and they really have his way." I remember you mentioned your specific mission to me once, but unfortunately I didn't delve into the specific tasks of other professions at the time. This was exploited, but fortunately you are alert and dangerous. ”
"Brother Ling, will we leave here now?" Xiaoqing asked.
"Leave. But I've got to kill someone. After my family, we must have the consciousness of death, and some people's accounts are slowly settled, but this must be cleared up now. Luo Ling said in a calm tone.
