Chapter 152: The Collapsed Earth

But the head worm can't go down and roll.

The rift leading to the cave spread rapidly, mainly in two directions, one to the north and the other to the south, and wherever the rift reached, the land of the jungle also collapsed, but it did not all collapse downward, but upward.

The collapse continued to spread as the rifts spread, and the ground of the twisted jungle began to peel off in large swaths, and the twisted trees that were connected together broke off one after another as the earth cracked, some of them rising into the air with the rocks, and some of them fell into the depths of the earth, floating in the subterranean world that had been flooded.

It's not surprising that this happens, in fact the underworld has always been on the verge of collapse, but there is a delicate balance between the uninfected homecoming trees, the rising Mingstones, and the falling non-Songstones.

This massive collapse happened suddenly, and it seemed that this balance point was destroyed, and it could be destroyed at any time for various reasons, but Lynn had been prepared for it.

Now, the collapse of the jungle has been stretching and spreading over the area of the underground world, and the surface above the area where the underground world is located has begun to crack, which makes Lin feel strange, it seems that there are far more stones flying up than falling, and if there are not many stones falling, the sea water in the underground world will not be squeezed out, so maybe ...... The jungle will not be affected.

The crack spread so quickly that Lynn needed a fast reaper to keep track of it, and some of the jungle creatures in hiding were awakened by the fact that they fell beneath the crumbling surface before they could escape, while others rose into the air with the Ringstone.

Those that rise into the sky don't necessarily reach the clouds. Raging rain and thunder and lightning were raging in the air. The storm broke out again at this time. The strong air currents caused the floating rocks to collide with each other, and a storm of rocks suddenly blew in the sky, and a large number of rocks turned into countless pieces under the strong wind, but some were also thrown out by the storm and hit Behemoth in the air.

After a dull thud, Lynn felt pain in the place where she had been hit, many cells under the skin were killed by the impact, and the empty boat of the head worm that Behemoth was pulling was also attacked by a large number of rocks. Countless chirping stones crashed into it with the storm, making a clanging sound.

A strong air current containing countless boulders had rolled up around her, and Lynn knew she had to get out of here.

Behemoth let go of the hook that was dragging the head worm and let the head worm's airboat float high into the air on its own.

The head worm's airship began to spin in the air blown by the storm, and its sturdy shell withstood the blows of ignoring the rocks at the same time, but it still relied on its huge size to float steadily into the air.

Behemoth, on the other hand, had a harder time being as steady as the Narushi Skyship, so Lynn let it accelerate straight down, rushing into the cracked earth below and into the underworld before more rocks hit her!

'Bang! ’

With a loud bang, Behemoth's whole body felt the coldness of the sea. Lynn immediately asked Behemoth to release most of the gas in his body and dived deep in the darkness......

Relatively strong stormy air blowing. It was very calm, and Behemoth had released some large lanterns in the dark water for lighting, and now Behemoth had dived to the very bottom, which was once the underworld.

Lin entered this place for another purpose, which was to confirm the condition of the collapse, and under the light of the lantern, Lin saw that the bottom of the water was covered with small gravel and not too large rocks, if there were only so few stones, maybe the sea water here would not overflow.

And when the moon leaves and the stone falls back to the earth, the water here will also reced.

Behemoth continued to swim south, and Lynn had to make sure of the situation, along with the large number of flyers that Lynn had placed here before.

Under Lynn's observation, it was found that there were indeed quite few rocks that had fallen into the water, but it was not yet fully confirmed that they were safe......

'Goo ......'

Lynn felt a sudden stirring of the water around Behemoth, and they began to spin slowly, faster and faster.

This is...... Whirlpool? Why is there a whirlpool here?

The water around them swirled continuously, and their great force even affected Behemoth, and Lin immediately made it swim faster and rushed out of the whirlpool, but Lin felt that the whirlpool continued to rise with greater force.

Lin felt that this power could even sweep Behemoth into the air.

Is this ......

Behemoth immediately released a compression blast bomb in the rear, and under the impact of the explosion of the bomb, Behemoth opened the water spout at the same time and rushed forward, almost pulling out of the range of the whirlpool.

Behemoth looked behind him, and saw a whirling column of water rushing straight into the sky, connected to the clouds of the sky under the storm, and countless boulders also swirled with it, and it was even clearer under the occasional flash of lightning, a sight that was extremely spectacular, but Lynn had not seen it.

This appears to be a peculiar phenomenon of tornadoes, which suck seawater into the air and occasionally appear on the surface of storms.

As the tornado slowly moved across the water, Lynn had Behemoth dive into the sea again to escape the intense storm.

The water of the whole area began to revolve around the tornado, and the objects floating in the water were swept into the air as soon as they touched the tornado......

The moment the Homestead Tree came into contact with the tornado, countless pieces of wood splattered in all directions, flying into the air along with some of the sheltered creatures on it that had escaped the flood.

Eventually, the entire tree was crushed by the strong air currents, and the gigantic creature was reduced to a cloud of debris under the violent storm, dissipating without a trace.

But the tornado seemed to have reached its time, and after crushing a homestead tree, the rotation suddenly slowed and then slowly dissipated.

Spinning is a powerful force, and Lynn wonders if the 'Trailblazer' can do such a thing.

After the tornado dissipated, the sky slowly began to quiet, the storm and rain became smaller, and the lightning became less frequent, as if it was slowly beginning to recover.

But the shaking of the ground continued......

Now on the ground, a large number of rifts have spread to the edge of the glittering woodland, and the moment the rift touches the desert, a large amount of sand and gravel suddenly sinks down, and the collapse is accompanied by a strong roar and spreads rapidly to the sea, here is different from the twisted jungle, this sand and gravel float into the air quite little, and a huge amount of sand and dust falls into the underground world.

The large amount of sand and gravel caused the sea to suddenly start to rise, and if the crack spread to the location of the entire desert's underground world, the sea water would still gush out of the ground.

Lynn had the Reaper in the storm following the spread of the collapse, and Lynn needed to be the first to be informed.

'......Boom'

Suddenly, with a strange loud noise, the unending collapse of the desert stopped, as if something hard had been encountered, and the rift in the stratum could not continue to grow.

Lin immediately sent the underground flyer to the location where the crack had stopped, and when she arrived at this location, Lin didn't notice anything unusual.

But the crack in the roof of the cave did stop at this point, perhaps something in the rock formation was holding it back.

But the cracks are not over yet, because they are moving in both north and south directions at the same time.

Now to the north, Fracture was heading into the depths of the Twisted Jungle, and with it the forests it passed, countless boulders attached to the Twisted Trees rising into the air, only a few falling underground.

Lynn had been tracking the collapse as it flew, and now, it was close to the location of the homestead tree on the ground.

When approaching the Hometree Tree, the rift in the ground seemed to bypass the Hometree and split to the side, and when the surrounding ground burst into the air, the area where the Hometree was located was unharmed.

After the surrounding rocks and dirt crumbled, Lynn also saw the true face of the homestead tree, which was indeed connected to a homestead tree underground, but there were countless roots in the area of the 'connection point'.

It's a strange phenomenon, why can this one tree grow out of the ground? Could it be that when it was long, there was a hole or something here?

In this case, the height of the homecoming trees is more than the height underground, they can grow more than twice as much as the original! But it could be two trees stacked on top of each other, but it seems that it is difficult to fold them so neatly, right?

'Ga ......'

Suddenly, there was a sound from the homestead tree, and the roots at the junction suddenly broke one after another, and a huge crack appeared in the bark.

It seems that due to the collapse of the surrounding rock formations, they can no longer maintain their appearance, and the whole body begins to shake a little, but it continues for a while before stopping.

It seems to be stabilized.

However, this has nothing to do with the Homestead Tree itself, because Lin doesn't want this Homestead tree to collapse, and there are still a large number of strange creatures on it and a base, so before it collapses, Lin asked some troops to use spider silk to reinforce the structure inside, and if it is processed outside, it should not fall again.

Now, Lynn had been following the spreading crack, it didn't stop like in the desert, but faster and faster, it passed through a large area of jungle, and when it passed the rocky mountain where the head worm was, a large number of rock mountains instantly collapsed, but the head worm and the Mketu tribe had already moved away, so there was no damage.

That's the benefit of being prepared.

Eventually, the crack spread close to the foot of the mountain before it finally stopped...... (To be continued......)
