Chapter 360: The Pride Stalker and the Iron-Blooded Proving Ground

Spend a few more months in the world of Task Force X, once again witnessing the resurrection of Superman, and the defeat of Steppenwolf.

However, this time, Lu Wu didn't get involved, but just sent Rick, who had already accepted his fate, and his newly formed task force to join in the fun, and helped the Justice League a little, which can be regarded as a good fate.

Then before Darkseid came, he immediately chose to return.

After all, with the strength of the Card Master, even with the help of a witch, it is difficult to fight against the Dark Lord.

And he's been through it all once, and there's nothing new in repeating it again.

Overall, the process of this mission was very relaxed, and it was basically spent in fishing, and it didn't take much effort at all.

Lu Wu himself had fun, which also conformed to the somewhat elegant tone of the card.

Not bad, good, good, good.

In addition, the souvenir brought back from the mission is actually the doll that holds the soul of a witch in the movie.

The system also hinted to him more than once that he could try to turn it on, which might help him in the future.

Lu Wu went against the system, putting the puppet together with the mantra lasso brought back from the previous world, and never looked at it again.

He's not stupid, and judging by the system's reaction, it's obvious that the doll is a real guy.

The resurrection of the witch is to find a host, and the entire mysterious space is left to him, and the end can be imagined.

The system has repeatedly explained that it will not harm the host, and that with its suppression, the witch will only become a spirit like Ephelius's sister, providing him with power.

Lu Wu finally refused, he had a relationship with a witch anyway.

Turning your ex-girlfriend into a spirit behind you, it is estimated that you can feel the chill of the back ridge every day.

The system was soaked for two days, and when he found that he was unmoved, he gradually gave up.

Lu Wu became more and more suspicious of what the system wanted to do, and it was not interested in the loot it brought back before, but this time it was unusual.

Do you really want him to play Ephelius in the next world?

So, Lu Wu hurriedly went to the selection machine to verify his conjecture.

But the final result was a little different from what he had guessed, and of course it could be the reason why he didn't use the puppet.

[Mission World: Alien vs. Predator 1]

[Playing Object: Pride Stalker - Rengar]

Since they had already been selected, Lu Wu was too lazy to grind, and it happened that the time was almost up, so he immediately chose to start a new task.

......

In 2004, a satellite called PS12, owned by Wieland, captured a special image while scanning the Antarctic plate.

A few hundred meters below Bouvet Island, north of Antarctica, an eerie structure is emitting heat to the outside world.

Wieland's scientific department soon carried out imaging studies of the heat source.

It turned out to be a strange pyramid-like structure.

On the same day, the news was sent to the current president of Wieland, Charles Wieland.

The elderly billionaire immediately decided to send a team to the field to investigate.

And he personally led the team.

As a mega-multinational corporation serving billions of people around the world, Wieland has assembled a team of the world's top explorers, scientists, engineers, and archaeologists in a short period of time.

Coupled with Wieland's own well-equipped security team, the group traveled to Bouvet Island, about 1,600 kilometers north of the Antarctic continent.

At the same time, in outer space, not far from Earth, a strangely shaped black spaceship fired a powerful blue beam at Bouvet Island.

The ice that had accumulated over thousands of years melted in an instant, forming a cylindrical passage between the ground and the mysterious pyramid deep underground, which seemed to have been measured with an instrument.

These hundreds of meters of thick permafrost and ice, with the current technology of mankind, combined with the most advanced drilling team, would also take 7 days to penetrate, and the whole journey of this spacecraft took less than 7 seconds.

When the Wieland expedition arrived on Bouvet Island on an icebreaker and went to great lengths to transport the drilling vehicles to the island, they were stunned by what they saw.

The entrance to the passage is on a towering ice rock directly behind an abandoned whaling station.

The original target of the expedition was the whaling station, as the pyramid was located beneath it.

It was a gift from heaven that made it very convenient for Charles Wieland, who was desperate to enter the pyramids.

So, he immediately decided to send someone down to find out.

This decision was strongly opposed by expedition director Clay Wood, a woman who was not very old but was already an experienced explorer.

Especially in polar exploration, there is no one in the world who is stronger than her.

At the same time, Kleece is also the soul and backbone of the whole team, and without her participation and guidance, Wieland himself would not dare to risk his life.

But in fact, what Christ is opposed to is not to enter the passage, but not to enter rashly without preparation.

At the very least, you should find out what the specific situation is, and then make a plan.

Otherwise, in the depths of the underground where there is no rescue, if there is any danger, it is very likely to lead to the annihilation of the whole army.

It's a pity that no matter how powerful she is, she is only a guide, and she can only make suggestions, and the real decision is made by Charles Wieland, the owner who threw a lot of coins for this expedition.

However, Wieland still took care of Kryce's emotions and told her.

"If we want to know what's going on, the only way is to find out."

It wasn't the first time that Clay had worked with Wieland and Wieland, she knew the old man's temper well, and she was a little moved.

After all, if you are always timid and looking ahead, you can't be considered a qualified explorer.

After figuring it out, she stopped objecting and began to prepare for going underground with the rest of the team.

Holes were drilled into the ice walls of the passageway, steel nails and lighting were driven, and a downward zipline was built.

Dozens of minutes later, everything was ready, led by the experienced Krys, in the middle was Wieland and all the members of the expedition, and at the end were all the equipment needed for the expedition.

The rest remained on the ground, setting up zero-hour bases and monitoring the expedition at all times in order to help if necessary.

While the group was busy, the previous spacecraft had already entered the atmosphere, and at this time it was quietly monitoring the progress of the expedition over the whaling station.

Due to an approaching storm, plus the ship's super-tall stealth technology.

Unbeknownst to humanity, they are being targeted by a terrifying form of life in outer space.

Waiting for the expedition to go deeper into the passage, the spacecraft released four landing modules on the ice a few kilometers away from the whaling station.

Originally, there were only three of them, but there was an inexplicable extra uninvited guest.

But neither the spaceship nor the creatures in the landing module noticed anything unusual.

This special landing module separated from the large force in mid-air and landed on the other side of the whaling station.

The slender cabin shaped like a missile plunged headlong into the ice, splashing a large amount of snow, and then the hatch slowly opened, and Lu Wu, who had been holding in for a long time, squeezed out of it with great difficulty.

Compared to the Predator, who is similar in size to a human-enlarged version, Lu Wu is now relatively strong, so the landing module is a little cramped for him.

But Lu Wu thinks that his figure is very beautiful, at least stronger than the ugly Predator.

The thick pad of meat stepped on the snow, making him shiver involuntarily.

Between breaths, two white streams of cold air erupted from the nostrils.

Fortunately, his hair was thick enough to avoid being frozen to death.

Seeing his surroundings clearly, Lu Wu bent down, landed on all fours, determined the direction through his innate keen sense of smell, and then ran and jumped quickly in the snow, nimble as if he was a snow elf.

In just a few minutes, he came to the vicinity of the whaling station.

Occupying the commanding heights of the ice rock behind him, Lu Wu squatted down and observed the movements of the humans below.

In the cold wind of the polar night, the lion's mane hair on his head was fluttering, and the longer mane was braided into several thick braids, with the teeth and claws of some unknown creature tied to it.

Hideous fangs peeked out of his mouth, and a blue eye looked like stars.

The other eyeball was obscured by an eyepatch, revealing a murderous red glow.

His arms were as thick as pillars, and on his shoulders were two armors with a distinctly savage style, and with a slight grasp of his claws on the ground, the cold ice that had been frozen for many years and as hard as iron was easily crushed.

The white fur provided him with better concealment in the snow and ice, and at the same time, it also made him a whole human (beast?). It looks majestic, revealing a wildness that goes deep into the bone marrow.

On the belt around his waist, many things were hung, most of them were trophies, and the rest were tools for hunting.

The triangular nose, which was clearly characteristic of a feline, twitched slightly, and Lu Wu sniffed three breaths that did not belong to humans.

"Looks like you're not slow."

Lu Wu's mind moved, and his body gradually became transparent, hiding himself.

Unlike the Predator's optical invisibility technology, he is a magical power, and his degree of invisibility is superior to that of Iron Will.

The only drawback is that when he is too close, the hunter's aura he exudes from the inside out will be detected by the prey, thus raising the alarm in his heart.

But at that distance, it means that the prey is also close to death.

The infiltration of the three Predators seemed careless, perhaps not sophisticated, or perhaps with the pride of any creature's youth.

They clearly didn't pay attention to the people left behind at the whaling station, even though the humans had guns in their hands.

As a result, a Wieland security guard was patrolling and clearly heard the sound of iron and blood communicating with each other.

This "click, click, tremble" like a clash of teeth, is the language of the Iron Blooded Race, and security does not understand the meaning.

But it was enough to remind him that something was nearby.

He raised his gun and watched around vigilantly, calling out his friend's name several times to prevent mischief among his companions.

In the end, he didn't wait for a response, but waited for the hunter hiding in the shadows.

One of them, Iron Will, stabbed the security guard in the heart with the sharp blade of his forearm, and before he died, the security guard saw two strange blade tips stained with blood but still as transparent as crystal.

His screams before he died alarmed many people, so the Iron Wills accelerated the slaughter.

Bouvet Island is a testing ground set up for young iron-wills, and in order to prevent news from leaking, every young man who comes here is obliged to kill all the creatures they see.

The humans in the whaling station are just appetizers to warm up.

After killing all of them, the three iron-willed men entered the passage after confirming that there were no survivors.

Soon after, Lu Wu also came to the entrance of the circular passage.

The hole drilled at a perfect 30-degree angle will make most OCD sufferers addicted.

Lu Wu lightly jumped on the zipline with a diameter of no more than ten centimeters, and then stepped on it and ran downward, the whole process as if walking on the ground, not even the slightest sound could be heard.
