Chapter 698: Straight to the Yellow Dragon
If you imagine the cities built in the main activity areas of the rat civilization, such as Luminous City, Aurora City, and Yaoguang City, as a roughly flat plane.
Then the Salvation Army and the Soul Shifter team are now gradually going deeper, forty or fifty meters below this plane.
Although the vertical height is only lowered by fifty meters, the main activity area of this and the rat civilization is two worlds.
It is "inaccessible" here, even ordinary insects and pigs are difficult to survive, and the fungus crops such as luminous moss have spread to this depth, and they have become strange, and the light has dimmed a lot, like layers of unpredictable fog.
There is almost nothing that can be called an "ecosystem" here, but it contains extremely rich geothermal and psionic resources, and you can see cracks and cracks in the rocks everywhere, and "snort" out of the air currents, colorful air currents with a strong and pungent smell, rich in various trace elements, and rich aura.
Because of this, the geological activity in this area is also particularly active.
Even as the upper space gradually stabilized, small aftershocks still occurred here from time to time, kicking up a cloud of dust, mixed with the halo of luminous moss, making it appear more viscous and intense.
There are even small pebbles, falling from the sky intermittently, "clanging" on the armor of the Salvation Army and the Soul Shifter Squad, adding a bit of tension to this dead and silent world.
As they got closer and closer to the center of the underground spiritual vein eruption, which was the trap deliberately set by the snake demon and the Doctor Virus for the rat expeditionary force during the last fierce battle, the hotter and more oppressive the air around them, the stronger the psionic disturbance in the space.
It is like countless invisible kite strings, cutting their cranial nerves back and forth, the higher the cultivation, the more full of spiritual energy in the body, the stronger the interference, the milder the symptoms feel dizzy, staggering, are faintly gagging, the more severe the symptoms will have Venus in their eyes, auditory hallucinations in their ears, and feel that the blood is constantly hitting the brain like a tidal wave, and the most severe symptoms are simply headaches, and even strange hallucinations, and it is difficult to take half a step forward.
This is the effect of the leyline eruption, the spread of the spiritual magnetic storm field.
Generally speaking, the spiritual magnetic storm field generated by this leyline explosion will often collapse on its own, dissipate, and return to normal within a few days.
But they didn't have a few days.
Those with more severe symptoms can only be left in place, and those with milder symptoms grit their teeth and stick to it.
Fortunately, the existence of the spiritual magnetic storm can also cover up so many highly mutated rat clans, and the killing intent and aura around them make the enemy completely unexpectedly that they will kill back and be caught off guard.
"Ahead is where we last came into contact with the insect tide."
Approaching a dry underground riverbed, the cat-eater pointed to a huge hollow road ahead, "I remember that we were camped here because there was groundwater to draw from it, and you see, there are traces of the camping here. ”
Chu Ge and Director Mu followed the guidance of the cat eater, observed carefully, and sure enough, found traces of the large army once stationed.
The war of the rat tribe has been forbidden, quite orderly, and when the army is stationed, it will also build simple fortifications, dig trenches or something, it is easy to see.
Although the underground river next to it has dried up, judging from the moist riverbed, it was only a day or two or even a few hours ago that the earthquake tore the underground rock formations and caused the river to run dry.
Sent the vanguard to the front to search, and also dragged back a large number of corpses of rats and zergs, proving the cat-eater's claim.
"Well, the enemy's lair will never be too far away."
Chu Ge analyzed, "Carrying out earthwork underground is a very labor-intensive matter and resource-consuming, no matter how advanced the technology of the Celestial Organization is, it is definitely not easy to hide from the alliance army and the extraordinary association on the ground, and dig the ground full of holes."
"Therefore, the traps they set up and their hiding places must not be too far apart, otherwise, just opening up the rock formations between the two points is an unimaginably large and impossible task.
"Director Mu, I think we can start, take this as the center of the circle, and scan within a few hundred meters of the surrounding area, and we should find something.
"Cat eater, on your side, the rescue army is ready to fight at any time, remember, we don't need to completely destroy the enemy, as long as we can stalk and bite the enemy's tail to the death - there are thousands of troops on the ground, dozens of aircraft carrier formations, including the air and space strike force, are always at our disposal, as soon as we cough out, they will immediately kill them, one person and one soak in urine, and they all drown the scum of the celestial organization!
"—you just talk to the big guys of the salvation army to boost everyone's morale."
The cat eater thought for a while, leaned next to Chu Ge's ear, and whispered: "Didn't you say that we should no longer rely on the means of 'deception and enslavement' to rule the rat clan, isn't this considered deception?" ”
"How could I be cheating?"
Chu Ge said confidently, "The Earth Alliance does have dozens of aircraft carrier formations, and there are indeed thousands of troops and horses, a torrent of steel, and it is true that one person can drown the Celestial Organization with a soak in urine, the key is to know where to urinate, isn't this our task?" ”
The cat eater pondered for a long time, probably thinking that he had already boarded the thief ship and could only go all the way to the dark, it sighed, led the rescue army, and completed the final preparations and mobilization.
Chu Ge and Director Mu and the other ten soul shifters each held a searcher, spread out around the battlefield, and held their breath to search for the locator in the mouse's body.
"Beep...... Beep...... Beep...... Beep ......"
The faint and monotonous electronic sound, echoing repeatedly in the deep and bottomless darkness, is like a vegetative heartbeat, cold and boring.
Although he had calculated everything and found this place, even Chu Ge was not sure whether his plan would work or not, and whether all the speculations were just wishful thinking.
Moreover, even if they did find the coordinates of the guinea pig, it might be even worse.
Because this shows that the guinea pig has fallen into the hands of the Celestial Organization, with the means of Dr. Virus, it is very likely that this guinea pig will be used as a springboard to reach the brain domain of the abyssal giant beast floating in the outer waters of Lingshan City.
I don't know, if they want to save everything, they still have time?
Chu Ge swallowed his saliva with difficulty, wiped the sweat from his paws, and continued, the searcher stuck to the rock wall, searching inch by inch.
The "beep" sound is always monotonous and steady.
Although it was disturbed by the surrounding spiritual magnetism and was accompanied by the noise of "rustling" from time to time, the rhythm of the "beep" sound itself did not change in the slightest.
This made Chu Ge disappointed and slightly relieved.
"This is Chu Ge, I didn't find it." He uses a microcommunicator to speak to the Soul Shifter's tactical communication channel.
"This is Black Feather, I didn't find it." Soon, the same frustrated voices came from the communication channel.
"This is thunder, I didn't find it."
"This is Lin Yiyan, I didn't find it."
"This is Mu Renfeng, I didn't find it."
"This is Lin Yilu, no...... Wait, my voice has changed! ”
Sure enough, when Chu Ge and the others were all agitated and frantically rushed to the place where Lin Yilu was, they heard a chaotic "beep, beep, beep" sound from their searcher.
It is like a vegetative person who has been sleeping for many years, and suddenly it is strongly stimulated, and the cerebral cortex and glands in the body begin to secrete hormones frantically, making the heart like a long-abandoned engine, starting to "rumble" again.
"This is the direction!"
Soon, everyone's searchers pointed to a narrow cavern hidden in the darkness in front of them.
And the rock walls around this cave are also covered with dozens of black cracks.
Judging from the response of the seeker, they are still a long way from the mouse, and it is difficult to accurately find the mouse in the maze of rock crevices and caves that extend in all directions with such vague positioning.
"Ghost Claw, activate the seeker we just cracked, and actively send a signal towards the depths of the cave."
Director Mu immediately decided, "There's no time to grind, whether it's dead or alive, just gamble!" ”
The Ghost Claw responded, and the searcher, which had been modified and connected to the equipment of the Soul Shifter Squad, turned on the increasingly bizarre Seeker.
The Soul Shifter squad draws their weapons and is ready for battle.
The Cat Eaters also lead the Salvation Army, following them every step of the way, ready to seize the hope of survival.
"Beep beep!"
"Dididi!"
The two completely different voices gradually merged together, as if a clear sonic arrow appeared in the darkness, cutting through the thick fog in front of him.
"This is it!"
The ghost claw took the lead, Chu Ge and Director Mu followed, and the large army rushed into the darkness with a fierce son!
