Chapter 64: Puppet Guards

The night passed very peacefully, and by dawn, the fog in the sinkhole gradually dissipated, as Hongyan said.

And as the fog cleared, the sinkhole slowly revealed its true face.

The sinkhole is in the shape of an inverted cone, and the surface of the pit that slopes down is also overgrown with all kinds of mutated plants, like a huge funnel.

However, Wu Ming and Hongyan had a brief exchange, and decided to leave immediately without waiting for the fog to completely dissipate.

Both seemed to think that it would be better to go into the vault earlier.

"Let's go." After packing up, I listened to Wu Ming's order. He commanded the cat beast and walked towards the bottom of the pit first, while he followed with Fu Fayong and the four others.

Li Mo naturally didn't express any objections to this, so he and Hongyan followed a few people.

The slope of the pothole is about 30 degrees, which is not very steep. However, it is very deep, which shows the wide area of land.

Fortunately, in the process of going deeper, I did not encounter any danger, nor did I encounter a single bug.

The whole sinkhole was quiet, and only the "rustling" of plants could be heard in the breeze.

It took about half an hour for a few people to reach the bottom of the sinkhole.

However, the base of the sinkhole is still extremely wide, estimated to be several kilometers deep.

However, Wu Ming was obviously familiar with this place, and after leading a few people to search, he soon found a stone gate made of rock materials on a rock wall at the bottom of the pit.

The stone door is round, up to three meters in diameter, and is also carved with intricate lines, and the center of the lines. It was a fist-sized bulge, which could be seen emitting a faint black light.

Wu Ming walked to the stone gate. But he waved his hand first and motioned for everyone to stand back.

Li Mo saw it, and he slipped away. retreated to a dozen meters away.

Seeing Fu Fayong and the four of them, they all raised their rifles in their hands, and one by one they looked like they were facing a great enemy.

However, Hongyan was very calm, and when she saw Li Mo looking at her, she actually had time to smile at him.

Looking at Wu Ming again, he gently placed the palm of his right hand on the fist-sized bulge.

With the movement of his hand, the layer of soil attached to the bulge was quickly erased by him, revealing his true face like a spar.

Li Mo had never seen this kind of spar. It is jet black, smooth and does not have any blemishes.

Then Li Mo felt Wu Ming again and triggered the source force. It seems that he injected his own original source power into the black spar.

After the spar was injected with the source power, the faint black light emitted slowly began to spread towards the surrounding lines.

It took about half a minute to light up all the lines on the door.

The next moment, I heard the friction sound of "click".

Wu Ming also quickly stepped aside at this time, his face was also full of vigilance.

Li Mo carefully observed the stone gate. I saw the gap on the edge of the stone door, and the dust was scattered. The entire round stone door slowly fell backwards.

But not that kind of collapse, but as if there was some kind of power in control. Slowly put it down.

When the stone door completely collapsed, the cylindrical vertical corridor behind the door was also revealed.

However, there was nothing threatening in the corridor, and it was empty.

Li Mo and the others also saw the wall of the Yongdao cave. Inlaid with secrets, densely packed, white crystals like a beehive.

The crystals all exude a faint white glow. It's not glaring, it's soft. It should have the role of lighting.

And Wu Ming carefully observed, and after making sure that there was no potential danger, he said to everyone: "It seems that the energy ladder well has not been destroyed, we can enter it now." ”

Li Mo had already turned on the brainwave ability, and indeed he didn't find any creatures in the corridor.

However, he was a little curious about this ladder, and it could be seen that this should be something similar to an elevator.

It's just that he can't figure out what kind of energy this ladder is used to maintain it. I only know that the key to open the ladder well should be the original source power of the evolutionary.

Wu Ming had already taken the lead in taking his cat beast into the ladder well at this time, and Fu Fayong and the others saw it, and they all followed without hesitation.

Li Mo glanced at Hong Yan, and Hong Yan nodded at him, and the two entered the ladder well together.

The area of the stairwell is about the same size as the round stone gate. And the fallen stone gate is actually the so-called energy ladder.

Entering it, Li Mo, who stepped on the stone gate, could clearly feel that the stone gate was in a state of suspension, which also made him feel amazing.

And when everyone got up the energy ladder, they saw Wu Ming stretching out his hand again, and on the wall of the ladder, a very conspicuous independent black crystal, a strange pattern was drawn.

Li Mo saw that there were several very conspicuous points of light on the black crystal. The pattern painted by Wu Ming is actually using a special trajectory to connect these light points.

Is it something like a password? He was speculating in his heart.

After Wu Ming completed the connection of the light points, Li Mo also noticed those illuminated white crystals on the surrounding walls, releasing a strange energy.

The Shimen energy ladder under his feet slowly went down under the action of this energy.

As the energy ladder descended to the bottom, Li Mo roughly estimated that the depth of this ladder well was forty or fifty meters.

On the wall at the bottom of the stairwell, another hole appeared.

After the energy ladder stopped, it was Wu Ming who was the first to enter the hole, and Li Mo and the others followed. After entering the hole, a square passage is visible.

The energy ladder in the stairwell behind him floated upwards on its own. Li Mo guessed that after reaching the top, this thing would definitely be closed and sealed by itself.

Looking at the square tunnel in front of you, it is about four or five meters high and seven or eight meters wide, which is very wide.

However, it is not straight away, and when you look around, you can see that there is a corner at the end of two hundred meters away.

The walls of the passage are a metal-like yellowish-brown substance, which looks quite resplendent in gold. I don't know if it played a role in reinforcement.

And the walls are also inlaid with a lot of white hexagonal honeycomb crystals that can be illuminated. So the light in the channel is good.

But on the walls, there are also many quirky graphics printed. It's kind of like some kind of totem or rune.

Looking at Wu Ming again, he briefly observed the passage, but a relaxed smile appeared on his face, and he looked at Hong Yan and said, "This shelter doesn't seem to have been breached by bugs. ”

Hong Yan responded: "It should be." ”

However, Li Mo felt that she did not agree with Wu Ming's judgment.

Wu Ming didn't care much about her attitude, and reached out and patted the head of the cat beast next to him.

As if receiving his orders, the cat spread its claws and ran into the depths of the passage.

"Everybody be careful." reminded a few people. Wu Ming also took the lead again.

Li Mo was still using the brainwave ability to detect the surroundings, and he didn't dare to relax at all.

Several people kept a distance of more than 100 meters from the cats and beasts, so the cats and beasts that explored the path did not exceed the coverage of Li Mo's brainwaves.

However, not long after the cat beast had just turned into the corner at the end, in the imaging map of Li Mo's brain, he suddenly saw the cat beast suddenly arch up.

This is clearly an attacking posture, only due to his limited brainwave coverage. It is not known what exactly the cat has encountered.

And the next moment, listen to "Woohoo! There was an angry roar, and then Li Mo sensed a fluctuation of energy.

At the same time, the cats and beasts in the brainwave imaging picture also have grown mouths. Something seemed to be spewing out.

With this, Li Mo immediately judged that the energy was spewing out of the mouth of the cat beast, and it was also related to its roar.

Remember in the last plane. Li Mo had heard that among Wu Ming's several pet beasts, there was a feline capable beast.

And the power of the power beast. It's similar to the golden bear he encountered when he first met, parasitized by the mother worm. It's also a vocal ability.

When he saw this cat beast for the first time before, Li Mo wondered if it was the ability beast? And now I can finally confirm it.

Wu Ming's reaction was also extremely fast, and through the sensory sharing between himself and the cat beast, he immediately saw the situation in the corner and saw what triggered the attack of the cat beast.

"Get ready to fight! It's the puppet guards of the Vault! He gave a warning, exerted force under his feet, and rushed straight into the corner.

And around the corner, the cat beast roared again, apparently at war with that kind of guard.

Several people quickly rushed to the corner, and after turning in, they saw that more than ten meters in front of them, the passage had become a slope that was oblique downward.

The cat was standing on the slope at this time, and kept roaring towards the slope.

But every time the cat beast roared, it could be clearly seen that a tangible, translucent spherical ball of energy shot out of its mouth.

As Li Mo guessed, it was a similar sonic energy attack.

Everyone quickly rushed to the cat's side and looked down the sloped passage. I saw that in the depths of the passage dozens of meters away, dozens of strange-looking puppet guards were rushing straight towards the sonic energy attack of the cat beast.

These puppets all have four long, double-knuckled legs that are more than a meter long, and are about the thickness of arms.

But the bottom of the long legs was extremely sharp, like the tip of a spear. At the top of the long legs, a ball-shaped body the size of a basketball is attached. There was still a little dazzling red light on the body, as if there were red eyes.

This is the so-called puppet guard? Li Mo looked at those things curiously. At the same time, I saw a sonic energy projectile from the cat and beast, which happened to hit the body of a puppet guard.

As far as Li Mo knew, the attack of this sonic ability was very powerful. If an ordinary person is hit, it can be shattered in an instant.

But the defense of that kind of puppet guard is extremely strong, and after being hit by the energy bomb, it was only shocked and flew upside down, but did not suffer any substantial damage.

Li Mo's heart was a little heavy when he saw this scene, which showed that the puppet guards were not easy to deal with.

And the four Fu Fayong, who followed Wu Ming, saw the puppet guards coming, and hurriedly raised their guns and shot. Pull the trigger and greet with a bullet splashing water.

However, the puppet guards were only shocked back by the sonic energy attack of the cat beast, so how could they care about the bullets?

The bullet hit them with a crisp sound, but it couldn't hurt them at all.

However, Wu Ming obviously knew something about these puppets, and immediately shouted: "The guns are useless, you all retreat, let me come!" ”

As the words fell, he also launched an offensive.

As soon as his hands were raised, they instantly turned red, and along his hands, two red lights like spiritual snakes followed, and in a moment, they turned into two whips burning with red fireworks.

It turned out that he, like Hongyan, also had the ability of the fire attribute.

And that kind of puppet guard is extremely afraid of fire.

I saw Wu Ming wielding two fire whips, as long as he picked up the puppet guard, he could smash them in one go. It felt like a glass bottle was being smoked.

At this time, Li Mo was amazed, he couldn't imagine that this kind of puppet guard was so vulnerable under the attack of the fire source force.

Seeing Wu Ming's might, he suppressed the puppet guards. Du Yueyue, who also has the ability of electric attributes, was also unwilling to be lonely and shot out a ball of electric light.

It's just that the electric light ball is the same as the sonic attack of the cat beast, and it can't cause any damage to the puppet guards at all. It can be seen that the nemesis of this kind of thing is only the power of fire.

Du Yueyue saw that she couldn't help, so of course she had to give up the attack. A few people followed behind Wu Ming, who opened the way, and slowly advanced towards the depths of the passage.

While Li Mo was observing those puppet guards, he was also communicating with Hong Yan in his mind: "Is this kind of guard only afraid of fire source power?" ”

Hong Yan replied using the common frequency connection: "Yes, the fire attribute source power can indeed suppress this kind of thing. ”

But when she said this, she changed her words: "But it's not enough to kill them, so you must not take them lightly, and be careful of your surroundings." ”

Hearing Hongyan's warning, Li Mo immediately raised his vigilance and continued to scan his surroundings with brain waves.

He soon discovered that after those puppet guards were shattered by Wu Ming's fire whip, they quickly turned into a yellow-brown liquid and quickly seeped into the ground.

And the next moment, Li Mo's brain wave suddenly sensed that along the wall on the right, a spear-like thing suddenly stabbed out.

However, this "spear" did not attack him, but stabbed at Du Yueyue, who was leaning on the right periphery of Wu Ming and several people in front of him.

This thing that was stabbed out of the wall coldly made Du Yueyue, who had been paying attention to the front, have no chance to react at all.

And the angle at which this "spear" pierced was also extremely tricky, heading straight for her head.

Li Mo also immediately saw what that spear was, it was the long legs of the kind of puppet guard.

As the long leg stabbed out, the entire puppet guard pounced out of the wall.

Li Mo was taken aback, and finally understood why Hongyan said that Wu Ming couldn't kill these things at all.

I can't imagine that this kind of puppet can melt into liquid and escape into the wall, re-condense and launch a sneak attack! (To be continued......)
