Section 14 Longwei
Wave after wave of unevenness, the iron slag whose combat power is close to the Holy Rank is the same, not to mention the others. In an instant, everyone present was weak under their feet and collapsed directly to the ground, and some even fell into madness, holding their heads and rolling on the ground screaming. In just a few seconds, there were more than ten people who fell into the abyss due to fear.
I don't know how long it took, maybe more than ten seconds, maybe half a minute, maybe a few minutes, but the first to regain consciousness stood up and walked to the edge of the cliff to look down. With just one look, he was stunned by what was going on below. I saw that in the bottomless, inky darkness, a pair of scarlet eyes that were as red as blood and radiated a dazzling light were slowly moving upward. If you look closely, the spot where the eyeball is located is on the opposite cliff, hundreds of meters away from this side.
The cliffs on both sides of the abyss are tens of meters at the narrowest, thousands or even tens of thousands at the widest, and the distance is neither far nor close. The side on which the iron slag is currently located is called the "Great East Wall", while the opposite side is the "Great West Wall".
In order to see the situation further, Iron Slag turned on the long-range system on the helmet. After a few seconds of focusing, the image went from blurry to clear, and Iron Slag finally saw the behemoth below, and his expression suddenly froze, and even breathing became difficult. Through the far-reaching lenses, I saw an abyssal demon dragon hundreds of meters long covered with dark green scales and clear bones gathered on the opposite west wall. At the moment, it is hooking the rock wall, slowly climbing upwards. From above, its head is twice the size of a container truck, with several long, sharp horns and sharp scales that resemble the fins of a fish.
Abyssal Dragon, the top of the bottomless abyss food chain, the most powerful carbon-based creature in the multiverse. The loud roar just now was the innate "dragon power" of the demon dragon.
Suddenly, Iron Slag remembered what Eva had said to him before leaving: "When you encounter any scale color, any kind of Abyss Demon Dragon, don't hesitate, retreat immediately, even if several human saint ranks, they may not be their opponents, your little strength is not enough for them to stuff their teeth." ”
However, in this situation, it is impossible for him to flee unless he gives up most of the team. He was a simple man who made a decision after only a moment's hesitation.
"Turn off all the engines, power, light sources, and get down on your stomach without making any sound." Iron Slag pressed the intercom button on the side of the helmet and said in a calm voice. According to the book, due to the dim light of the abyss, the green-scaled demon dragon evolved from the abyssal monitor lizard had poor eyesight and mainly relied on sound to distinguish directions. And from what it did just now, it seemed that it had eaten enough, so it released the dragon power to drive away the small creatures.
Gradually, the team members recovered from the panic, turned off all kinds of equipment, and then lay quietly on the ground, motionless.
"Boss, you go first, I'm here." The porcupine started a separate communication and whispered to the iron slag.
"Commander, you take the porcupines and them first, and I'll stay." "Boss, you take Tuoba San and them first, there's no need to die together." At the same time, Jerome and Match also connected to the separate voice.
Iron Slag didn't answer, directly switched to separate communication, and then lay on the edge of the cliff, staring intently at the climbing green scale demon dragon. There are many kinds of demon dragons in the abyss, some evolved from monitor lizards, and some evolved from other species, and the most powerful of them is still evolved from intelligent creatures.
In the carbon life zone of the multiverse, there are many intelligent beings. When they evolve to a certain level, or when the energy density in their bodies exceeds the limit of what their plane can bear, they will tear through the void and follow the torrent of energy to the bottomless abyss. It's just that only a very small number of the strongest intelligent creatures can evolve into the Abyss Demon Dragon, and the vast majority will only evolve into another form at the top of the food chain - the Abyss Archdemon.
Compared to the Abyssal Demon Dragon, the body structure of the Abyssal Archdemon is closer to that of a human, and they are also divided into male and female, with males having no special names, and females are generally called "succubi". In addition, there is a third gender in the Abyss Archdemon - hermaphroditism.
There is a big difference in strength and size between the Abyss Great Demon Individuals, some are not as good as the human Saint Rank, and some are comparable to the Purple Gold Demon Dragon. Although they are different in gender, strength, and body type, they all have one thing in common, which is bloodthirsty, sadistic, brutal, and low IQ. The vast majority of them have lost the ability to speak and the moral standards of sapient beings. In their degraded brain tissue, there is usually only the rule of the jungle and the naked one.
The strength of the green-scaled demon dragon in front of him was equivalent to the strength of ten to twenty ordinary human saint ranks, but this assessment was very rough. As for the roughness of what is dù? According to the explanation of the academy textbook, there are 633 dragon slays officially recorded by humans, of which 620 are killed by the Green Scale Demon Dragon. Dividing the sum of the number of Holy Rank people who participated in the killing of the Green Scale Demon Dragon each time by the number of times the Green Scale Demon Dragon was killed, the result of the calculation was equal to fifteen points and thirty, and from this, this rough and extreme combat power assessment was obtained.
On the one hand, this number ignores the combat power other than the Holy Rank powerhouse; To put it simply, a hundred heavily armed power armor warriors can pile up a standard combat power Saint Rank with a light yì; On the other hand, there is also a gap between the green scale demon dragon, who has just become an adult or an adult for thousands of years, who is injured or healthy, who is hungry and tired or energetic, and whose combat power is different; And in the third aspect, the gap between the human holy ranks is not small. There are some holy ranks among the human race, if they are bare-handed, they will have to turn around and run when they see the iron slag at this moment. Of course, this category is definitely the weakest Holy Order.
But then again, although the academy's evaluation number has an extremely high error rate and an extremely crude inference method, it also reflects the strength of the Green Scale Demon Dragon from the side. Moreover, whether it was equivalent to the combat power of ten Saint Ranks, or the combat power equivalent to twenty or even three thousand Saint Ranks, there was no difference in the current situation. If anything, it's a matter of whether it takes one more second or one less to erase them.
As time went on, the atmosphere on the mountain road became more and more tense, and even the iron slag had a chill down his spine and a cold sweat broke out. Watching the demon dragon slowly climb upward, he only felt as if time had stood still, passing very slowly.
In the darkness, silence, fear and tension of the environment, time passed like this......
More than an hour later, the demon dragon stretched out its front paws tens of meters long, grabbed a bulge on the opposite west wall, and climbed up. I saw that its claws were deeply embedded in the stone wall, and the hard stone in its eyes may be like earth.
When the huge head of the demon dragon appeared a few hundred meters away, the panic and sensory shock were not something that words could describe.
Looking at the slightly clumsy movements of the demon dragon, Iron Slag suddenly understood that the reason why it climbed was because it was too narrow here, and it could not spread its wings, so it could only crawl aggrievedly like this. Iron Slag couldn't help but think, if there were enough troops at this moment, wouldn't it be a good time to slay the dragon? If the dragon slaying succeeds, his knightly name will be worthy of the name and well-deserved, and the "little black face" statement will naturally be self-defeating and disappear.
However, he is just thinking about it, although his strength has improved recently, he has not yet inflated himself to the point of forgetting who he is, mistakenly thinking that he is invincible in the world and can slay dragons.
"Whoa...... Crash...... Crash...... Crash...... Crash...... Crash...... Whoa......"
As the dragon climbed, large chunks of stone slid down like dirt. It's not hard to imagine that these falling rocks will quickly turn to ashes in a high-speed fall. However, this phenomenon is only the mainstream inference. Because no one has really experienced it for themselves, and can return to this world and tell other humans about this strange experience. It's like the feeling of death that no one can describe, because you have experienced people, and you can't communicate with other human beings.
Some scientists also speculate that the bottomless abyss is a passage that is infinitely close to the lower planes, and the downward is a passage that is infinitely close to the higher planes. In the inference of such scientists, the bottomless abyss may be the passage connecting the "carbon-based life zone" and the "material life zone".
There was once a great scientist who put a spherical transmitter into the abyss and then continuously tracked the transmitter's signal. And when it descended to a depth of several million meters, the transmitter completely lost contact. Maybe it was out of the range of the maximum signal radiation, maybe it was damaged in high-speed movement, or maybe it went to another plane. At present, the upward and downward detection of human beings, with the Dawn Fortress as the origin, is less than a million meters, so most of the theories are only in the stage of speculation and inference, and there is no definite truth.
After the demon dragon climbed up, he lay on the edge of the cliff and looked sideways, only to see that the scales covering the demon dragon's whole body were emitting a dim faint light, and the surface was very smooth, like metal and jade.
"Boom la la ......"
At this moment, the demon dragon seemed to have grasped a certain unstable place, and a large-scale collapse immediately occurred. A large area of mudslides collapsed like a flash flood, and the whole area was suddenly filled with smoke and dust, and even the infrared vision failed.
"Wow! Run! "Wow!" "Ahh Help me! ”
The sudden change was like the last straw that broke the camel's back, and some people finally couldn't stand the overwhelming fear and went completely crazy. They got up uncontrollably, and in the darkness where they couldn't see their fingers, like a herd of lambs being chased by wild beasts, they crawled along the mountain path and fled in a hurry. In the chaos, from time to time, someone fell off the cliff and let out a terrible scream.
Sensing the situation in the rear, Iron Slag couldn't help frowning, but he still lay on the spot, not daring to act rashly.
A few seconds later, a far-reaching and long dragon roar suddenly sounded on the opposite side, the sound was extremely penetrating, like the sound of heaven coming from the far side, and like the sound of gold and jade clashing, clear and crisp, echoing between the cliffs for a long time.
However, the heavens did not have mercy on these weak creatures, and just a few seconds after the dragon chant ended, the heavens and the earth suddenly changed color!
With a loud roar, the whole world became red and translucent, scorching hot, and a burning smell of sulfur came to my nose. In that blurred line of sight, a thick, volcanic eruption pillar of fire erupted into the rear of the convoy, targeting the group of people who had fled in the darkness in confusion......
