Chapter 145: Going Underground
It is a large underground space located beneath the base of the Glittering Glade, in the nest of the original Chibucha Worm.
It was once bombed by Lynn and now it has been refurbished into an underground cavern suitable as a base, and the surrounding walls are still made of crystals, in honor of the Chibucha Worm, Lin has built several pure crystalline statues in the center here, each of which represents a different form of the Chibucha Worm, the Crystal Scale Lizard did not make a statue, and this lizard has a lot more in the twisted jungle.
Now, though, Lynn is building something even more special.
Hundreds of troops are gathering here, most of them are a special kind of 'shell applicators', who secrete a variety of chitins in their bodies and shoot them out through their mouths, and are crawling on a giant class to complete the final work for it.
This class is much more difficult to complete than Behemoth, after all, Behemoth doesn't actually have a shell, just a thick skin, but this class needs a perfect shell, which must be done with the help of other classes, and Lynn has dug a long hole to put it in.
But when it was finished, Lynn thought the qiē was worth it...... Is it? That's not necessarily, because it hasn't been tested, because there are a lot of resources now, so Lin will want to build it, in fact, it's quite troublesome to build, if it's an emergency, it's unlikely to build this kind of army that consumes a lot of resources and time.
Seventy-three meters long and six meters in diameter, its entire body was covered in armor made of chitin mixed with spider silk, a huge class that Lynn had created after Behemoth.
Originally, she wanted to design it to be more than 100 meters, but Lin found that it didn't make much sense if it was too long. It now weighs about the same amount as the Purgatory Worm. However, the body is almost the same diameter. Not like the Purgatory Worm with a large head and a thin tail.
This worm class is mainly used for underground exploration, and its head is a huge 'drill bit', which can be used to drill through solid rock, and this 'drill bit' can also be opened, and the inside is covered with barb-like serrations, which can swallow rock and crush or dissolve it in the body, this is purely for exploration in the ground, but it can also be used for warfare.
There are also three more than 30 meters long on the side. Smaller worm-type units with a diameter of one meter, they burrow into the ground around the giant worm, and can provide a lot of help, such as spraying dissolving liquid, providing energy, repairing the shell, etc., and usually they can insert themselves into the grooves of the armor on the side of the giant worm's body, without hindering movement, which is a very convenient helper.
Giant worms do not spew dissolved liquid on their own, and unlike Behemoth. Giant worms do not create small troops, and they do not have any organs in their bodies. Its entire body is made up of a large number of muscles, including some new types of muscle cells that are as tough as spider silk, and are driven by a force that can drill through even the strongest rock formations.
…… Although this is just speculation, as it has not been tested yet, Lynn doesn't think there's anything wrong with it.
It's called ...... And what? Lynn hadn't thought of any interesting names yet, Lynn wanted to come up with a name like Behemoth or Leviathan, but couldn't find anything like it, so she named it 'Pathfinder' for now.
After applying the last bit of chitin, Lynn told all the shellers to pull away, and when they reached a safe distance, Lynn began to try to move the Pathfinder's body.
'......Boom'
The pioneer only moved his body slightly, and the entire crystallization cave trembled, and Lin felt that there was nothing wrong with the muscle allocation, sometimes creating an overly heavy body, but the muscle strength was not enough, and it would lead to inability to move or get tired easily, but now the structure used is becoming more and more advanced, and there is basically no such problem.
The cost of powerful muscles is also relatively large, but Rin's class will enter a dormant state as long as it is inactive, and it usually consumes almost no energy.
It is difficult for the Pioneer to advance on land, and the average way forward can only be described as moving slowly, or rolling like a worm in the head...... But as long as you go underground......
Lin asked the pioneer to lift his head and slam it against the ground shaped by the crystals, and with a loud bang, countless crystal fragments flew into the sky, and the ground was knocked out of a huge crater, and then the pioneer embedded his head in the hole, and his whole body began to spin!
Along with the swirling lines on the head drill bit, the pioneer lightly drilled open the crystal ground, and then its seventy-three-meter body also rotated, and the moment its huge body rotated, the entire cave suddenly began to tremble continuously, and the surrounding crystalline walls also collapsed, and the entire cave is now like the scene of the collapse of the underground world.
That doesn't seem right.
Lynn doesn't like to cause too much damage and vibration to her surroundings when she burrows into the ground, causing a lot of unnecessary damage in normal times, and she can't achieve a sneak attack effect in wartime.
So Lin changed the drilling rate of the Trailblazer to slow down the shaking amplitude of her body, and through guò calculations, Lin moved forward in a smoother way.
Under Lynn's movements, the cavern's shaking began to slowly become quieter, and the noise became much quieter, until the Pioneer burrowed his entire body into the ground, without causing too much damage around it.
Then let's do more testing!
The Pioneer then began to advance underground, and Tongguò spun his body continuously, the earth and rock formations shattered under the huge drill bit, and the Pioneer reversed course underground, rushing towards the crystallized cavern again.
With a bang, the huge head of the Pioneer rushed out of the ground, and at the moment of appearance, its body was still spinning, like a giant monster jumping out of the water, and then the Pioneer's constantly rotating body touched the ground again, and under the splash of crystalline fragments, the Pioneer quickly drilled back into the ground.
Lynn was very pleased with the fact that this 'jumping out of the water' method of drilling into the ground left two large holes in the ground and no unnecessary damage to the ground.
If you want to go in a smooth way, it will be much slower, but at least it will be faster than the empty boat of the head worm.
Although the Pioneer has eyeballs on the drill bit and his head can also glow, Lin can only see a large amount of mud and gravel, apparently moving in the ground, and the Pioneer cannot confirm his location, so Lin needs the Flyer to follow the flight above to confirm the direction of the Pioneer.
It's pretty simple.
After slowly advancing underground, the Pioneer had dug through a lot of dirt, and Lynn found that her front was suddenly filled with rocks and sand, and that she was already at the bottom of the desert.
The Head Bug was also about above this position, it was now fully recovered, and was about to continue its flight into the desert, maybe it was going to deal with the Inca swarm, so Lynn would probably stop them when they were fighting fiercely.
And Rin's goal is the sea, in the sea, the power of the pioneer can be more fully exerted, if the chitin of the purgatory worm is obtained, Lin can even go to the pioneer to challenge it...... Lava. (To be continued......)
