Chapter 242: Bombardment from Space Battleships (Subscription Requested)
The anomaly happened somewhere above them not far away, the clouds in the sky rippled like boiling water, and the ripples spread around the center of the anomaly, and then the sky was torn apart, and a dazzling pillar of white light tore through the clouds, falling from the center of the ripples, and slammed straight into the canyon where the devouring worm was.
There was no deafening loud noise, no earth-shattering explosion, just like the pillar of light with a diameter of hundreds of meters was just an ordinary beam.
However, in fact, the pillar of light fell, and the ground was directly melted, like a pillar slowly sinking into the ground.
The stone and earth were broken down in the pillar of light, and it was melted without the slightest obstruction, as if it were a hot iron pillar falling into a condensed oil drum.
A few seconds later, a hoarse roar came from beneath the earth, and then the earth began to shake violently as if a strong earthquake had occurred.
"Click!"
With a crisp sound, the earth just two miles in front of Ye Qing suddenly cracked, a large piece of ground within a radius of several miles cracked, a rock layer hundreds of meters thick arched and was lifted, and countless entangled black tentacles rolled and arched the ground, gushing out, accompanied by a hoarse roar, which made people's eardrums tingle.
Devouring worms, legendary creatures, gigantic creatures.
This was the basic information he had obtained as soon as he saw the large flow of tentacles that were swelling out.
That's right, it's the tentacle stream, the devouring worm body hasn't been seen yet, but the tentacles that gushed out of the ground don't know how many, overwhelmingly pouring out in all directions.
The most terrifying thing is that these tentacles have broken the connection with the devouring worm itself, turning into independent tentacle monsters, each of which is different in size, the small one is about one meter in diameter, the largest one is several meters in diameter, and the largest ones are as high as seven or eight meters in diameter, and the length is more than one kilometer.
These broken tentacles are round, although the movements are not as flexible as snakes, but they are definitely more flexible than the army's armored vehicles, and they are constantly twisting and changing at the disconnected end, and soon a new mouthpart grows, Ye Qing's eyes are sharp, and he can see with his own eyes that after a burst of twisting of the tentacles that devouring worms have just been broken, they begin to grow a circle of sharp teeth, and several teeth grow almost in a second, and they quickly become hard and flashing with cold light.
These tentacles form a separate entity and form a monster with mouthparts at both ends, similar to an earthworm, but the size is magnified ten million times, rushing towards the army like a tide.
In the place where they passed, a lot of glowing slippery mucus was secreted, just like what Ye Qing had seen at the bottom of the valley with the invisible servants before, and it looked very disgusting.
This sudden change stunned everyone, and Ensign Went was stunned for only a second, then decisively waved his hand and ordered to evacuate, and immediately jumped into the chariot and rumbled around and left. The other reincarnators began to evacuate early in the morning, and in the face of this terrifying monster group, they only stayed here to die.
Of course, Ye Qing would not be an exception, and immediately slapped his seat, and the berserk bear turned around and ran wildly, faster than the chariot.
This devouring worm is a bit too powerful, Ye Qing once saw the information of this kind of monster in school, that is, there were reincarnators who saw this kind of monster and obtained information and wrote it down, but the devouring worm in the record is not so powerful, to be precise, there is no such terrifying scale and this ability to derive new offspring after amputation.
Normal devouring worms are indeed very large, and the main body plus the tentacles cover several kilometers, but there is absolutely no ability to disconnect the tentacles and grow independent individuals like this one.
In other words, this devouring worm is a mutant variety, which is more powerful and terrifying than normal devouring worms.
However, what is even more terrifying is not these tentacle tides, you must know that the regeneration ability of devouring worms is very powerful, as long as there is still a little body, a devouring worm can grow again, and so many tentacles are pouring out here, as long as one escapes to other places, it will not be long before another devouring worm appears.
"Things seem to be in a big deal!"
When Ye Qing thought of this, he immediately felt that his skull hurt.
Fortunately, the most painful thing in the braincase is not him, but the human expeditionary force base, if the base is already stunned, unlike Ye Qing who only sees these split tentacles, the expeditionary force base can look down from above.
The pillar of light that fell from the sky was gone, and the original canyon was gone, revealing a huge bottomless hole.
Through satellite shooting, a picture that suffocated the top brass of the military department appeared in front of them.
"I suggest that the main battleship be dispatched to bombard the main body of the target by bombardment."
An officer with the rank of major on his shoulder looked at the scene on the virtual light screen and said in a firm and powerful tone.
But there are also those who have doubts and ask:
"But it's so close to the base, if you go out and the main guns of the main battleship will affect the base."
"This monster must be killed, even if it affects the base, it must be executed."
The previous Major's tone was as firm as ever, and he said:
"I can't imagine a being like this staying at the edge of the base, and one day it will come under the base and swallow the entire base."
....
No one spoke anymore.
As he said, the Devouring Worm moves slowly, but that doesn't mean it can't move, and it's hiding underground, and if it moves below the base one day, the entire base will be swallowed, and no one will be able to escape at that time.
Aware of the seriousness, everyone does not speak, and not speaking represents acquiescence, agreement.
No one objected, and the major immediately opened a channel and sent their proposal over to apply for the main artillery bombardment of the fleet in space.
And Ye Qing here, he also immediately received a reincarnation mark prompt, and he almost jumped up after reading it:
"Warning: The Expeditionary Force Space Fleet will carry out an exterminating strike on the area where the Devouring Worms are located in ten minutes, please leave the danger zone within ten minutes!"
"Warning: The Expeditionary Force Space Fleet will carry out an exterminating strike on the area where the Devouring Worms are located in ten minutes, please leave the danger zone within ten minutes!"
"Warning: The Expeditionary Force Space Fleet will carry out an exterminating strike on the area where the Devouring Worms are located in ten minutes, please leave the danger zone within ten minutes!"
A series of three prompts, including the range of strikes, he looked at it, almost on the edge of the expeditionary force base, that is, he must escape to the base within ten minutes to be safe, otherwise....
He was not the only one who received this hint, but everyone including the characters in the plot had received it, and almost immediately the speed of the army tank increased by a cut, only the speed of the main battle tank really couldn't be increased.
Fortunately, the armor of the main battle tank is thick enough, as long as it escapes from the bombardment range, the aftermath is helpless.
As for those reincarnators, there was a burst of chickens and dogs, and everyone tried to escape by pressing the bottom of the box, and some even ran to the army's convoy to ask for a ride.
Fortunately, there was still a certain amount of space in the army convoy, and the car could not fit inside, so it could climb to the roof of the body, and more than a dozen reincarnators climbed up.
There are still people who have no place in the back looking for Ye Qing's position, wanting to take a ride and sit on the back of the furious bear, but he refused mercilessly.
If he wouldn't have said yes in normal times, he wouldn't have said yes now when he's racing against time.
Ten minutes to escape to the base itself is very reluctant, you have to rely on him to cast an acceleration and not stop for a moment, maybe it is possible to do it, if there is another person, it is not necessarily, he will definitely not be a good person.
Seeing the furious bear whining out of the distance, those few people scolded angrily, but they had no choice but to follow behind on their own two legs.
Ten minutes sounds like a long time, but if you want to run for your life, you won't feel that Ye Qing cast an acceleration technique for the berserk bear, which is also worthy of reaching a speed of 90, and he did not reach the base within ten minutes, to be precise, there are still more than ten kilometers away from the base.
Seeing that the time was almost up in half a minute, he decisively gave up his plan to escape back to the base, and rushed straight to a small hill not far away, preparing to use this hill to resist the shock wave.
When the time came, he had come to the small hill, immediately raised his head, when the time reached ten minutes, the sky clouds were torn to pieces, the whole sky became blazing white, more than ten thick energy pillars fell from the sky, that is, it was an earth-shattering explosion and the earth trembled violently, like an earthquake above level ten, Ye Qing stayed behind the mountain, and could see that the stones on the ground were shaken and jumped on the ground.
A few seconds later, the first shock wave rushed from the explosion like a tsunami, and the barren grass, trees, and stones on the ground were hit together, forming a wave of mixed mud and stones, broken grass and trees, and swept through the hill.
Standing behind the hill, he could clearly see that the hill was shaking violently, as if it would be unable to withstand the shock wave at any moment and be swept down and crushed to death.
Fortunately, the mountain was strong enough to withstand the shock wave, but a large amount of gravel and dirt rushed up the hill and pressed down over the hill, crushing him with his head and face.
And this was only the first wave, wave after wave of explosions came from the rear, the ground was shaking, Ye Qing could see that many of the ground were forcibly cracked, and some hills were violently shaken, and they actually cracked.
Fortunately, the hill he was hiding on was strong enough to withstand wave after wave of shocks, and as for the other reincarnators, at least half of them are dead now, and the other half is also in dire straits, and they will be swept up in the shock wave at any time.
The army was a little better, but only a little better, the inside of the car was fine, the outside of the car had long been washed out, and now the convoy was hiding under a half-cut hill.
Fortunately, the mountain was broken off and the impact was smaller, but stronger.
This dim time passed extremely slowly, and the earth-shattering explosions on the horizon seemed to have no end in waves, and it was estimated that the military headquarters had detected that the breath of devouring worms had not disappeared, and the bombardment would not stop.
