Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Golden Phoenix That Descended
Lin Huoxiao was not familiar with firearms, but the big guy lying in the puddle in front of him was really shocking. Lin Huoxiao hurriedly reached out to pick it up, the weight of the gun was beyond his imagination, and he stumbled and almost fell down again. In the chaos, Lin Huoxiao struggled to pick up the big guy weighing 30 kilograms and moved closer to Captain Qiao.
"Captain, can this still be used?"
Captain Qiao was stunned and took the big guy in Lin Huoxiao's arms, and he didn't speak, he fumbled and fiddled a few times, clicked his load, and pulled the trigger on a killer's palm four or five meters away!
Bang!
The heavy loud bang accompanied by the violent recoil made Captain Qiao's right arm holding the gun shrug back violently, and the golden light whistled out from the barrel, like an indestructible laser, breaking all four palms in the same straight line, and the fragments of the split palms flew out of the distance with pus and blood, and the field was in a mess!
"Good guys!" A copper bullet case nearly ten centimeters long flew out of the barrel of the gun, and Captain Qiao clicked the second bullet, "The power is really great, but there are only three rounds of ammunition left." ”
The palms of the four killers were pierced by a single shot, and a small area of clearing appeared in front of them, and Lin Huoxiao and the others immediately passed through this clearing and ran towards a slightly protruding slope in the distance. These monsters are endless, and for every time they kill, another emerges from the ground, and in a few moments, the forest is full of such disgusting and terrifying things. They stretched out their four fingers as hard as they could, waiting for Lin Huoxiao and the others to throw themselves into the net. The surviving team of twelve quickly took over the slopes, looking in horror at the dense palms in all directions, their roots buried in the ground like plants.
Lin Huoxiao felt the urge to vomit. He suddenly figured out a question, the murderer who killed the members of the exploration team must have come from here. Including his own earliest dispatch, a total of four groups of nearly 100 well-equipped personnel were completely wiped out in a short period of time before they could call for help, and they must have detected some important information! And this information is so important that the monsters will not hesitate to expose their whereabouts, but also completely wipe out those who know. So, who built this lab? What kind of organization does the ETB sign on the wall of the laboratory represent? Where did these monsters that surpassed his knowledge come from, or who created them?
Captain Qiao was nervously working out a breakthrough plan with his subordinates, and Lin Huoxiao glanced through the monster group, trying to find some clues. He found a palm like no other. The palm of this murderous hand was very close to Lin Huoxiao, it was facing away from him, and there was a pattern between the back of the index finger and the middle finger, which was the side face of a smoking woman, her long wavy hair and the smoke from the cigarette were particularly delicately depicted, it was the tattoo on the back of the paleobotanist Lao Liu, and the woman who smoked was his wife.
Cold sweat ran down Lin Huoxiao's forehead and into his eyes. He couldn't believe that these palms were all flesh and blood humans before they became what they were! If that's the case, then Wu Feng's cousin Jieming is also in these palms! Lin Huoxiao felt a wave of dizziness, and Captain Qiao supported him with his arm.
"We're going to rush south, and that's the next few points we're going to pass. When these palms are shattered, their roots retract into the ground, but after 20 seconds they burrow back into the ground. We'll use this gun and frag grenades to clear the way, and we'll only have 29 seconds to move and see the clearing to the south, which is the first diversion point. Captain Joe pointed to the distance, where the woods were denser, and there was not a single murderous palm nearby.
Lin Huoxiao felt that this was very weird, "Why are there no monsters there, is there something else?" ”
"No, the soil, the monster can't get out there." Captain Qiao seemed to be very sure, his eyes made people have no courage to refute, and the panicked Lin Huoxiao had long since lost his mind.
The team quickly began to break through. A red-glittering fragmentation grenade fell into the palm of the hand, and in the devastating explosion, nearly ten palms were blown apart, and the roots of the palms writhed and shrank into the ground. "Quick, keep up!" Captain Joe rushed out first, and everyone followed in the puddle, and the huge spear in Captain Joe's hand once again shattered three palms in the same line in front of him, while the second fragmentation grenade fell into the group of monsters farther away. The booming explosion sent palms flying in all directions, and everyone passed through the small clearing.
This underground jungle is unimaginably huge. Captain Joe threw away the huge gun, which had no bullets, and the team had moved hundreds of meters south, temporarily out of the range of the murderer's palm. There was nothing in the dense jungle except for the huge plants that had gathered crookedly together, and it was always dark all around, and Lin Huoxiao observed the space with the help of night vision devices, and now it was impossible to tell where he was because the remote sensing device was damaged.
"Almost, that's it." Captain Qiao took out a metal ball the size of a ping-pong ball from his carry-on backpack, looked up at the surroundings, and then looked at Lin Huoxiao and the others. There was a lingering heat in his eyes.
"Captain, what are you doing?" Lin Huoxiao asked suspiciously, he felt that something was wrong. Before that, several unnoticed details flashed through his mind.
"Complete my mission." Captain Qiao said lightly. He seemed to have changed suddenly, Lin Huoxiao really didn't believe that this person who was born and died with everyone a second ago would become so strange. Not only Lin Huoxiao was puzzled, but everyone looked at him suspiciously, seeing what "task" he was going to complete.
Captain Joe pressed the metal ball a few times and gently tossed it into the air. The metal ball floated above everyone's heads, its surface reflecting a light of unknown origin, which pierced the night vision devices and forced them to turn off their night vision devices. Then, the silver metal ball began to "copy" itself. It flew around a huge circular orbit with a diameter of nearly fifty meters, and with each meter of progress, an identical silver ball appeared in the orbit. Eventually, a silver circle of light appeared in the sky, and some of the small silver balls in the aperture turned into a faint gold, and their surface had a slender halo of light, like miniature suns.
Everyone looked up at the wonders in the sky, and the small metal balls that formed a large circle seemed to be accumulating energy. A black cube the size of a fingernail smashed down on a scientist's helmet, startling him, "Something, something's falling!" He shouted. At the same time, black raindrops began to fall in midair. But these raindrops are not made of water, they are all black cubes.
"What is this! Captain Joe, what the hell are you doing! Lin Huoxiao pushed Captain Qiao, who ignored him, still looking up at the air fixedly, letting the increasingly dense black cubes fall on him. Everyone panicked, and no one, including Captain Joe's soldiers, knew what the hell this guy was up to. "Quick, stop it now!" A soldier put the barrel of his gun against Captain Joe, he still stared at the huge circle of light in mid-air as if he didn't feel it, and he was still muttering in a low voice while laughing, "Golden Phoenix, Ms. Rowling has been waiting for you for 20 years, come!" ”
The black cubes became denser and denser, crackling against people's bodies, and although they were isolated from them by protective clothing, the overwhelming visual impact made everyone on the verge of collapse. Black cubes poured down from the silver aperture like a torrential downpour. They seem to be controlled by a conscious gravitational pull, spreading out in all directions, with a silver aperture as the central axis, slowly piling up into a black sphere space! Everyone was wrapped in this space, the black walls became transparent, and the golden ball broke away from the silver track and slowly swam along a specific track on the periphery of the black sphere space.
Everyone in the sphere space looked out in amazement, the jungle space was collapsing, the pink weird trees were uprooted, and the ground was shattering, like a peeling skin lifted into the air by a strange gravitational force. There was a disgusting hissing sound all around, and countless palms floated into the air with squirming and struggling, thick rhizomes as red as blood vessels, the outer of which were wrapped in disgusting bones, twitching and writhing.
The foreign objects in the sky began to float towards the giant ball, and Lin Huoxiao looked in horror at the things that were slowly approaching in all directions, but they did not break through the sphere space, and turned into a cloud of powder far away from everyone, and were absorbed by the golden ball of light swimming outside the sphere space. Lin Huoxiao counted them, there were a total of 12 moving balls of light, and they looked a lot bigger than just now! The foreign objects in the sky were still floating in a steady stream, and the 12 balls of light absorbed a large amount of flesh and blood energy, becoming large and bright.
After 40 seconds, the 12 glittering orbs ceased to swim and converged toward the top of the sphere space. The 12 balls of light merged together, and they looked very "hard", squeezing and trying their best to "spit out" a diamond-shaped crystal that was two people high.
"Finally, it's here!" Captain Joe was so excited that everyone looked up at what had suddenly appeared.
The diamond-shaped transparent crystal slowly descended, and there was a very bright white light in the center of it. As the crystals dropped, an ultra-high-frequency sound wave gradually intensified, and the indescribable impact caused many people to faint instantly. Lin Huoxiao's head was splitting, his inner eardrum seemed to be shattered, he felt his blood coagulate, and there was a strong attraction in his chest that pulled him into the air.
"Fire, Dad is back."
Lin Huoxiao, who almost fainted, heard his father's voice again! He endured the torment of the sound waves and looked around, looking for the source of the sound. The diamond-shaped crystal in mid-air slowly descended, and the power of the sound wave made Lin Huoxiao hallucinate, and he saw a shadow in the middle of the crystal, composed of hundreds of large and small multicolored metal squares, their surfaces flashing with a slender halo. Lin Huoxiao's chest was extremely painful, as if something had burned through his body! He struggled to unbuckle his suit, his chest glowing as white as in the crystal. And what he didn't expect was that this thing that emitted white light was actually a medal that he had worn for many years, a medal given to him by his father!
The hallucination reappeared, and the colored shadows in the diamond-shaped crystal moved, and it slowly formed into a human form, pulling out a long trail of light behind it. The humanoid figure stretched out its arms, as if to wrap its arms around Lin Huoxiao. Lin Huoxiao subconsciously stretched out his hand to block it, but the next moment he was horrified to find that his body was expanding rapidly, cracks appeared on the surface of his body, and a strong white light came out of the cracks. There were more and more cracks, and Lin Huoxiao was slowly engulfed by white light......
Captain Joe, who was almost fainting, looked at Lin Huoxiao in the white light with relief, "This is your super body. He said weakly.
