Chapter 21: The Heart of the Lair
A 'living' door!
This seems to be a bit unexpected by Lin Yumo, but it is unexpected and reasonable, after all, if you think about it carefully, this is indeed the consistent style of xenomorphs!
Whether it is the space giant beast flying over the low-earth orbit of Mars, or the 'gate-type' xenomorph in front of him who simply treats his body as a level of entry and exit from the core passage of the lair, the entire xenomorph group obviously gives Lin Yumo a feeling that he is deliberately restrained from developing, and that each xenomorph is moving in a specific direction and functionally differentiated.
And when these are fused into a population, those alien species that are very different in terms of function, body size, and characteristics will give you a feeling as if they are like four dislikes, making you look extremely awkward at a glance.
Similarly, as a carbon-based organism, the biological characteristics of alien xenomorphs completely violate the concept of carbon-based organisms in human history, and their evolutionary theories are very extreme, and this kind of extremism leads to even their own functions being limited to a certain direction, and the individual elements in the population are very different, and in addition to the leader level that has not yet been seen, other xenomorphs do not even have the most basic intelligence in addition to the powerful body element!
If you want to describe it accurately, then this hive-based alien race is like a huge machine equipped with intelligent chips, except for the head of the xenomorphs, all the xenomorphs do not have their own will, but are just the cold parts that make up this machine and constantly support the stable operation of this machine!
This is so abnormal!
Normal groups of organisms do not develop in this direction!
However, even if Lin Yumo smelled the extraordinary smell of alien aliens at this moment, which was extremely close to the truth, but the situation at this moment led him to have no extra effort to continue thinking!
Lin Yumo had just come to the position near the door-type xenomorph, and before he could react further, the door-type xenomorph not far from him seemed to have been waiting here for a long time, and directly happily opened the six dark cyan thick flesh petals on the front of his body that were tightly clamped together with each other, like a chrysanthemum blooming, and the dark red muscle tissue inside the body was exposed to the outside little by little with the peristalsis of his muscles. An underground passage entrance to the core of the lair!
A slight glance into the passage behind the 'gate', except for the entrance of the place where there is a very strange xenomorph guarding the passage gate, the entire interior of the passage is still dark cyan walls, and moss that grows intermittently on the walls, spreading on the walls on both sides of the entire tunnel, constantly emitting a faint blue cold light.
This seems to be the underground environment that he is familiar with, but as the part of the xenomorph in front of him gradually opens, Lin Yumo seems to see a devil grinning hideously, waiting for him to walk into his conspiracy little by little!
However, since he had made up his mind to go to the core of the xenomorph lair to find out, even if it was really a sheep in the tiger's mouth, Lin Yumo would not hesitate at all!
After all, even if it is really a trap, the other party really wants to swallow himself, and he must weigh whether this delicious meal will knock out his front teeth! While thinking like this, Lin Yumo drove the Angel through the door-type xenomorph in this way, and walked along the passage opened by the door-type xenomorph until he came to the end of the passage and saw a door-type xenomorph that was exactly the same as before!
"Another door-type xenomorph? I've never seen a place in a xeno-lair with such tight handles as here, so I guess it's right - behind this is probably the most important core of the whole hive! ”
The consciousness fluctuations emanating from Valettin's top have boiled to the limit, and the lilac glow emitted from the original silver-white metal hilt has become more brilliant and dazzling, with the extension of Valettin's consciousness, Lin Yumo can clearly feel the strong spiritual fluctuations from behind the door-shaped xenomorph!
An unknown existence hidden behind the 'door' has never stopped calling itself, with Valletin's amplification, Lin Yumo can feel very clearly that it has been trying to communicate with the ELS metal lifeform that is the core component of Valletin, its too large and special spiritual power has been emitting a signal of a certain frequency, if it encounters an object that meets the conditions for acceptance, it can realize its spiritual link with the other party in an instant!
Without hesitation, Lin Yumo drove the Angel Gundam and continued to fly forward to the door-type xenomorph, at this time, the gate-type xenomorph had obviously received the order from the 'head' behind him, and without any hesitation, he directly let go of his body, and let the Energy Angel Gundam pass through the 'door' composed of his body, and came behind him, 3900 meters deep from the surface of Mars, directly below the main longitudinal pit of the xenomorph lair, which is really the origin underground space of the base and core of the lair!
Huge, peculiar, and extraordinarily magnificent!
Lin Yumo can't find any accurate adjectives to express his inner shock at the moment!
He had never imagined that the core space of the xenomorph lair would be such a beautiful scene that could amaze him so much!
The overall shape of the core space of the entire xenomorph nest is like an upside-down giant bowl, and on the ground of this space, there are huge ravines composed of unknown blue objects from the center of the space, which are distributed in a radial pattern, and the Biqu Pavilion of these ravines www.biquge.info converge in the core area of the entire space center, and at the top of this area, there is a semi-arc dome protruding from the ceiling like a broken eggshell!
Directly below the dome, as if echoing the dome, a disc-shaped platform with a wavy edge and a structure like a multi-layered birthday cake stands quietly!
However, these particularly peculiar structures are not the focus of Lin Yumo's attention!
The most striking thing that Lin Yumo could see was that the material that made up the dome and the three underground discs in the core area was not any of the biological materials that Lin Yumo had seen before!
Even though they were simply stacked and solidified there, these strange substances automatically emitted some kind of blue cold light that fluctuated like water waves, and these lights made this underground space that had no light source illuminate and should have been pitch black to look extremely beautiful!
"Ariel, take a preliminary scan of these luminescent substances in front of my eyes!"
While seeing the unknown special substance that can only be found in the core space of the xenomorph lair, Lin Yumo also immediately ordered the Three Sages system on board the Morning Star, hoping to identify and determine what kind of functions and characteristics this mysterious substance has through their scanning and analysis!
It's no coincidence that this mysterious special substance can appear here!
This thing should have some special meaning and status for the leader of the xenomorphs, and even the entire race of xenos, and even Lin Yumo has such a vague premonition, if he can collect this substance and successfully analyze the characteristics and uses of this substance, the secrets of the alien xenomorphs will gradually be exposed in front of his eyes, and he will have the opportunity to follow this turning point, successfully reverse his numerical disadvantage, and make GN technology go further, It is not an accident that he will even hold the top in the future war!
However, at this moment, just when Lin Yumo had just had the idea of contacting the Three Sages system on the Morningstar, he suddenly discovered that the open quantum network constructed between the Energy Angel and the Morningstar was actually interfered with by another energy signal!
"Anomaly Quantum Signal...... Diffusion...... Undecipherable...... Quantum network anomalies...... Passage...... Interdiction...... Disturbed...... Can't rebuild ...... Mysterious Substance...... Construct...... Quantum Signal ...... Shield...... Parsing can't ...... Manage...... Swift...... Disengage...... ...... Land"
The avatars of the three sage girls displayed on the main control screen of the Angel are constantly generating a lot of fluctuations, and as time passes, the images become more and more blurry, and the voices from the communication channel begin to appear a large number of harsh noises at the same time, and at first they can barely hear a few simple words intermittently, but after a while, Lin Yumo can't even hear the intermittent words clearly!
The quantum network between the Energy Angel Gundam and the Morning Star seems to have been completely shielded by the xenomorph leader at the core of the lair, using a large number of special substances in the core area, and Lin Yumo, who suddenly felt that he was being drawn from the bottom of the xenomorph head, his face at the moment was unusually ugly!
Even the wise can make mistakes!
Lin Yumo still missed one point after all calculations, that is, he never thought that the leader of the xenomorph would be able to use that mysterious substance to exert his home advantage, and completely shield the quantum network established between himself and the three sage systems on the Morningstar, which is almost unbreakable under normal circumstances!
At this time, Lin Yumo finally completely abandoned his contempt for the leader of the xenomorph in his heart, and the excessive conceit of his own strength that he had gradually developed in the past was also temporarily left behind by Lin Yumo, at this time, Lin Yumo looked at the more alternative upper-level xenomorph in the center of the hall with a stricter expression than before!
It is located in the center of the core area of the nest in front of you, the top of the disc-shaped platform that is structured like a multi-layered birthday cake, about seven meters high, although it looks very small relative to the base, but people will never look at the base at first glance, but will look at it, six vertically arranged organs similar to eyes, making people always feel that he is staring at you, and a large number of thick and long dark blue tentacles around him are constantly wriggling irregularly in the air, making people feel numb all over!
