It is a huge cave, almost ten kilometers in diameter. Because it is in the center of the celestial body, the gravitational strength in the cave is zero. The Earth Dragon is entrenched in the center of the cavern, suspended in the air. The bulging body resembles an oversized balloon, and the giant earthworms that burst out of the ground are just tentacles of the earth dragon. The body structure of the earth dragon is very similar to that of the octopus, and it is also a bit like a jellyfish, which belongs to the lower level of mollusc-like silicon-based animals.

Yang Yi did not rush into the cave, but hid near the exit of the passage and carefully observed the behemoth.

Although it was a low-level silicon beast, the earth dragon was the largest silicon beast that Yang Yi had ever seen and heard of. The earth dragon in front of him must have a volume of more than a million cubic meters and a tonnage of millions of tons, which is comparable to an A-class warship. Only large warships equipped with heavy firepower can pose a threat to them, and ordinary space fighters will certainly not be able to do anything about it, and perhaps even legendary fighters such as the "Flaming Phoenix" can only look at it with admiration.

Fortunately, the earth dragon has no brains and has a pitifully low IQ.

Yang Yi lay motionless on the ground, his body covered with phantom wings, whether he looked at it with his eyes or sniffed with his nose, it looked like a rock.

In fact, the Earth Dragon has no eyes, nose, or ears, and its only sense is the "Sixth Sense", a unique organ on each of its tentacles that can detect weak electromagnetic fields. Because any living creature has a bioelectric field, it will be spotted by the Earth Dragon if you get close.

With phantom wings to protect, Yang Yi doesn't need to worry.

In addition to providing visual camouflage, in the full coverage state, the phantom wings can also shield Yang Yi's physiological electric field, as long as he lies on the ground and does not move, he will not be discovered by the earth dragon.

Something doesn't seem right.

After observing for a while, Yang Yi found a problem.

The only value of the Earth Dragon's existence is to guard the beast's den and protect the beast eggs that are still hatching, but there are no beast eggs in this huge cave, not a single one! As far as Yang Yi knows, in order to keep the eggs at a suitable temperature for hatching, the internal structure of the beast's den is often very complex, a bit like a honeycomb. Obviously, this cave is not quite the same as the beast's den, it is so empty that it is difficult to keep the temperature within the right range.

Thinking of this, Yang Yi activated the temperature detector on the eagle falcon's eye, and he was even more surprised when he saw the numbers displayed.

There is air in the cave, and the temperature is only thirty degrees Celsius.

This is also so strange, isn't this a beast's den!?

You must know that the temperature at which the silicon beast hatches will certainly not be lower than 2,000 degrees Celsius, and if it does not reach this temperature, the silicide inside the eggs will solidify, just like water will freeze below freezing. In addition, hatching eggs release heat, causing the ambient temperature to rise. If there were hatching eggs in the cave, the temperature would not be so low, not 2,000 degrees Celsius, but 1,500 degrees Celsius.

Staring at the earth dragon entrenched in the center of the beast's den, Yang Yi was full of doubts in his heart.

If this is not a beast's den, and there are no hatching beast eggs, why is there an earth dragon, and the body shape is still an adult earth dragon.

It was at this moment that there was a noise overhead.

Those pirates!?

Yang Yi held back his curiosity and didn't look up.

The pirate was more than a hundred meters above him, and if there happened to be a pirate looking down, Yang Yi would be spotted as long as he moved.

"Don't panic, everyone, the earth dragon is seriously injured and is already dying."

Someone was shouting loudly, sounding like a pirate leader.

Is this family really stupid, or is it fake smart? Even if the earth dragon is seriously injured, it can easily crush a human as small as an ant.

"It's all in accordance with the deployment, with the first team for search and alert, the second team for setting up the reverse force cannon, and the third team preparing for the operation. Get up to speed for me. ”

These pirates actually have inverse primal cannons, and they seem to have come prepared. Yang Yi looked towards the earth dragon.

The earth dragon was indeed seriously injured and looked like it was dying.

The reverse original energy cannon is a kind of heavy weapon widely used in the space battlefield, and the principle of destruction is the opposite of the original energy converter, that is, the energy in the form of internal energy, electromagnetic energy, and strong energy is converted into original energy, and then naturally dissipated in the universe. After the internal energy was sucked away, the body temperature of the earth dragon suddenly decreased, and it was strange that it was not dead.

Perhaps it was the reverse Primal Cannon bombardment that caused the Earth Dragon to retract into the celestial body after being injured and did not attack the pirates on the ground again.

These guys are also so hateful, they actually used a reverse force cannon against an earth dragon.

However, where did the pirates get the Inverse Primal Cannon?

Because it requires the use of the core of the original energy converter, the reverse original energy cannon is a strategic weapon, which is not only valuable, but also strictly controlled, and is uniformly procured and managed by the military department, and is only provided to the army for use, and must be applied for by the theater command, even if there is money, it cannot be bought.

Thinking of this, Yang Yi turned sideways and looked up.

On a protruding platform diagonally above, dozens of pirates are setting up a small electromagnetic projectile cannon, which is the firing device of the Inverse Force Cannon. An island that looks like a petty boss is pointing fingers at his hands, and at his feet is a metal crate made of a special alloy.

It's a small reverse cannon!

There must be ghosts in the military, otherwise pirates would not have gotten their hands on such advanced weapons.

Because of the need to convert energy into original energy, the inverse original energy cannon is one of the few weapons that fire cannonballs, the so-called cannonballs are actually the core of the improved original energy converter, after hitting the target, it will absorb the energy of the target, and convert the absorbed energy into original energy.

The shells were in that metal box.

The power of the large inverse Origin Cannon is so incredible that a single cannonball can destroy a ship's powerfield shield, and some of the devastating Super Inverse Origin Cannons can even shatter a planet with a single shot. Because of its sheer size and the surprisingly large shells used, the large inverse Atomic Cannon could only be mounted on a battleship. The small Inverse Blade can be carried by a single soldier when disassembled, making it much less powerful, but can be used in a wider range of applications, such as against vehicles and mechs in ground combat, as well as against strong forts. Because it is easy to carry and equally destructive, the military has tighter control over the small reverse force cannons, which are sealed in warehouses in peacetime and only issued to troops during combat.

It's not surprising that the pirate ship has a large inverse Elemental Cannon, but it's a big problem that these pirates have a small, heavily regulated Inverse Primal Cannon.

What to do?

The pirates were fast, and it was not very difficult to assemble the electromagnetic projectile cannon, theoretically three people could do it in five minutes.

"Whew-"

An extremely violent roar came, and Yang Yi immediately looked back.

The earth dragon came to life, in a dying throb to be exact. Hundreds of tentacles poured out of the Earth Dragon's body, overwhelmingly pounced on the pirates gathered near the exit of the passage.

In the face of the attack of the earth dragon, no one can be calm.

Pirates are also human beings, and there are also cowards who are afraid of death.

"Don't get together, spread out immediately. In groups of three, concentrate fire on the tentacle ends. The Earth Dragon is dying, give it the final blow now. ”

This time, Yang Yi saw the pirate who gave orders, wearing a silver-white protective suit.

All of a sudden, there was a lot of gunfire.

If the earth dragon is not injured, the electromagnetic guns, radiation guns and other light weapons carried by the pirates are simply decorations, because these weapons are all by transmitting energy to produce damage effects, kinetic energy, electromagnetic energy, radiation and other energy will be converted into internal energy after acting on the earth dragon, that is, high temperature, and the earth dragon is not afraid of high temperatures. However, the earth dragon was seriously injured, and the flesh that made up the body became stiff due to coagulation. Hit by a high-velocity projectile fired from an electromagnetic gun, those tentacles began to disintegrate, splitting into pieces of varying sizes. Under the radiation gun's irradiation, these fragments melted again, turning into pools of blood, consuming the last remaining life force of the Earth Dragon.

The Earth Dragon's body shrank dramatically, and some of the necrotic flesh was stripped from its body.

What's going on?

Seeing the energy source in the earth dragon's body, Yang Yi couldn't believe his eyes, and thought that he had seen it wrong, but the data given by the eagle falcon eye was definitely not wrong.

It is indeed an energy source, and it releases internal energy.

A large amount of internal energy creates a hot zone near the energy source, hundreds of degrees Celsius!

There is only one energy source that can continuously release energy, the Primal Energy Converter.

The Earth Dragon is just a low-level silicon beast, how can there be an Origin Converter in the body?

Also, if this energy source is controlled by the Earth Dragon and is part of the Earth Dragon's body, the Earth Dragon's body temperature will not decrease, and it will not be severely damaged.

This energy source does not belong to the Earth Dragon, but to the Earth Dragon's protection object!

"Ice and Snow Tiger"?

No, the "Ice Tiger" is a space fighter, similar to the "Fire Phoenix", and the "Fire Phoenix" does not have an origin converter.

Whatever it was, it must have mattered, otherwise the pirates wouldn't have worked so hard.

The Earth Dragon was still fighting back, and the pirates who had gathered together began to spread out in all directions under the command of the leader, so as not to be too concentrated and eaten by the Earth Dragon.

The three pirates ran towards the exit of the passage where Yang Yi was, but one of them was very unlucky, and he was hit by a tentacle after running a few dozen meters, his body was pierced, and he couldn't die anymore. The remaining two didn't stop, and when they reached the entrance of the cave, the pirate behind them slipped and was swept away by a tentacle.

"Ahh

The last pirate raised his electromagnetic gun and roared loudly as he fired at the approaching tentacles.

This guy must have been frightened and yelled loudly to embolden himself.

The pirates all around were concentrating on the attack of the Earth Dragon, and no one was paying attention to this side, and no one cared about the life or death of a lone companion.

Pirates are outlaws, and all they care about is their own lives.

Now is the time!

Yang Yi quietly got up, pulled out his flaming sword, and quietly touched the pirate who was facing away from him and shooting wildly with an electromagnetic gun.

The Flaming Sword is made of a special memory alloy that can be enhanced with the electrical energy output of the Primordial Converter, and can also be controlled by the user to change its form. This combat weapon is best suited for close-quarters assassination, and is not only deadly, but also silent, unlike electromagnetic guns.
