Chapter 170: Abyss Devourer

The expeditionary fleet is fast.

Although the number of monsters in the surrounding sea can be described as covering the sky and the sun, the density is incredible.

But under the lead of the E-class transport boat, the fleet still struggled to break through the layers of barriers, rampage in the encirclement and interception of the sea monsters, and fired full firepower into the distance to fight desperately.

In just a minute or two, the fleet rushed out at a distance of several hundred meters.

In the roar of gunfire, the laser laser also flashed continuously.

The body of steel collided wildly with the torrent of flesh and blood, leaving behind the corpses and limbs of countless sea monsters along the way, and the filthy blood gushed and splashed, making the scarlet color that permeated Zhou Tian into the sea water even more intense.

It's just that even if everyone desperately escaped, they were still within the scope of the sea of blood.

This terrifying sea that inexplicably emerged from the deep zone spread more and more with the passage of time.

The mysterious tidal phenomenon seems to be never-ending, and it continues to ferment.

The so-called space node is more like a ferry to the other world, ferrying out endless demons.

Meng Lei controlled the Sea Locust to break through frantically, rushing left and right, his heart was in his throat, trying to escape from this forbidden sea area as fast as possible.

However, accidents always happen inadvertently.

Without warning, it was unexpected.

At a certain moment, in the depths of the infinite sea of blood in front of the Sea Locust, a torrent suddenly surged.

In the darkness, it was as if some behemoth swayed by, setting off turbulent waves and turbulent ocean currents.

The deformed sea monsters that surrounded the Sea Locust, as well as the countless pieces of flesh and blood, were instantly scattered by the current of the water.

Even the hull of the Sea Locust, which weighed hundreds of tons, began to sway uncontrollably.

The hull structure was twisted and deformed by the squeezing, making a heart-pounding grinding sound.

It is enough to see how strong the shock of this ocean current is!

"What's the situation?! Isn't it ......?"

Meng Lei was shocked, and an ominous thought appeared in his heart.

At this time, before he could react.

Beyond the extreme illumination range of the searchlight ahead, an extremely large shadow was faintly revealed in the depths of the scarlet and obscure sea of blood.

The shadow is so vast, like a big mountain across the eyes, covering the sky and the sun, giving people an extremely strong sense of oppression, making people feel that they are incomparably small.

Meng Lei was stunned on the spot, and he couldn't help but feel furious in his heart.

His brain went blank, he subconsciously held his breath, and his whole scalp was numb.

"That...... What the hell is that?! How can it be so big?!"

At the first moment, he instinctively thought that the mysterious shadow in front of him might be a ridge jutting out of the seabed, some kind of natural special terrain.

The picture shown on the sonar display is completely free of obstacles connected to the seabed.

That is, that shadow was suspended in front of the fleet out of thin air, without any object to support it!

What this illustrates, the answer is self-evident.

"Abyss...... Strange beast?!"

Meng Lei clenched his teeth and felt unprecedented fear.

He clenched his fists tightly, desperately restraining himself to keep himself calm.

At the same time, keep your eyes locked on the sonar display and try to discern some special information from it to verify your guess.

However, there are too many anomalies in the nearby seas.

Dense and layered, almost impassable all around, completely obscuring the existence of the shadow, it is impossible to see what it is.

Otherwise, he would not have been bullied by the other party until now, and Meng Lei was still unaware.

"If that ghost thing is really an abyssal beast that ran up from the deep zone, in terms of size, it is even bigger than the Abyss Banshee!"

"If with each other

If you encounter it alone, the fleet will be full of firepower, and the six railguns will fire a salvo, not to mention that you can barely fight, at least you should be able to escape."

"But ...... now"

Looking at the dense anomalies on the screen like an ant colony, Meng Lei's heart sank, panic began to ferment, and sweat continued to ooze from his palms.

"Damn, anyway, get ready!"

After a short hesitation, he was ruthless in his heart, and with the attitude of a dead fish, he roared loudly into the radio of the whole ship:

"Hawke, adjust the railgun immediately, target the direction of twelve, and be ready at any time!"

Then, he gave a similar order to Lin Ming and the others on the other end of the headset.

"An unknown target was found ahead, everyone urgently floated, adjusted the railgun, and waited for my order to prepare for launch!"

When the words fell, Lin Ming and the others agreed one after another.

At present, the submarines of the fleet are not far from each other, and the direction of the breakthrough is generally unified.

The shadow that crossed in front of everyone was incomparably vast, and many people saw the suffocating huge outline, and their scalps were numb for a while, and they felt absolute shock and panic.

Including captains such as Lin Ming and Zhu Fei, most of the crew members of the long-distance fleet are veteran members of the Chongming fleet.

At the beginning, it was the first batch of Blue Star players who fought the strange tide with Meng Lei and arrived at the gathering place.

They were all people who had seen a large sea monster like the Hammerhead Mother, and ordinary sea monsters could no longer have any psychological impact on them.

However, the shadow in the depths of the sea of blood ahead was even larger than the size of the Hammerhead Evil Mother.

In particular, when the Hammerhead Mother Mother was encountered, the Blue Star player fleet used flares to carry out long-range bombardment from a long distance, and finally slashed it into the abyss.

But the current situation is different from the beginning.

The location of the fleet was only fifty or sixty meters away from the vast shadow, and it could already be said that it was close at hand.

The unprecedented visual impact brings people a stronger sensory impact!

The shock and horror came over the face, and the terrible feeling made the blood freeze all over the body.

Therefore, when Meng Lei's order was given the first time.

The combat personnel of each fleet rushed to the railgun control room of their respective submarines without their lives, adjusted the angle as quickly as possible, and aimed the muzzles of the guns at the huge shadow like a mountain in the distance.

It all happened slowly, but in reality it happened in a very short period of time.

From the turbulent ocean current that washed away the strange tide in front of him, revealing a magnificent shadow in the darkness, to Meng Lei's order, the fighters at all levels were in place one after another, and the whole process took less than fifteen seconds.

In the meantime, the shadow was not static.

As the submarines of the fleet floated frantically, constantly distancing themselves from each other, the shadows began to shake wildly.

In the dimness, through the projection on the porthole, Meng Lei and the others could only see a vague silhouette wriggling in the distance, and they still couldn't distinguish the true appearance of its body.

In the line of sight, there seemed to be a primordial giant wall that crossed the heavens and the earth, forcibly blocking the front, blocking all hopes.

"Don't rush to fire yet, wait for my orders!"

Meng Lei yelled, while controlling the submarine to retreat frantically, desperately trying to widen the distance with the other party.

He did not dare to attack first, so as not to provoke the opponent's rampage.

At present, the two sides are at peace, the situation is temporarily stable, and he tries to maintain the status quo as much as possible, and avoid a conflict with the terrifying behemoth as much as possible.

Fortunately, the hydrothermal wasteland is an extremely vast area that does not belong to the cave structure deep in the earth's crust, and there are not too many space restrictions.

Except for the aberrant spiny insects around that were still frantically attacking, there were no other obstacles that could stop everyone from breaking through.

The fleet galloped all the way, charging out with full firepower.

The huge shadow that was unknown in the darkness always followed, pressing down on everyone's heads like a mountain

, breathless.

However, the other party did not take the initiative to attack.

Like a curious baby, he followed the back of the fleet unhurriedly, wandering in the sea of blood, observing closely.

It feels like a giant looking down on ants, which is very depressing and terrifying.

", what the hell is this?! What the hell is it trying to do?"

In the earphones, Zhu Fei's frightened voice came, a little trembling, obviously so nervous that he couldn't do it.

"The devil knows what it wants to do, being chased by such a behemoth, Lao Tzu's heart is about to jump out of his throat!"

Lin Ming yelled and expressed his feelings, but he was also uneasy.

Meng Lei took a deep breath, kept his tone steady, and comforted:

"Since it doesn't move, let's not take the initiative to attack, so as not to cause extraneous branches, at this distance, the energy generated by the explosion of the railgun will also affect us, no matter what, we must first open the distance!"

As he spoke, the fleet rushed out for a distance, widening the gap with the terrifying shadow behind it.

In the line of sight, the gray shadow in the depths of the sea of blood gradually faded, and the outline slowly disappeared into the infinite darkness.

After all, the environment of the deep sea is still too dark.

Once out of the range of the searchlight, it was pitch black, and nothing could be seen at all.

Everyone can only judge from the turbulent ocean currents around them and the traces of those small sea monsters deliberately dodging, but in fact, the big guy behind them is still following.

Meng Lei did not dare to relax and always kept moving forward at full speed.

Just following all the way, fighting all the way, the fleet sailed a distance of nearly two kilometers.

Sunday's blood faded, and the fleet seemed to have broken through to the edge of this sea of blood.

However, the sea monster in the sky still chased after him, following behind him and continuing to attack everyone.

All the submarines in the fleet, including the Sea Locust, began to send out malfunction warnings at this moment.

Even the E-class transport ship, whose structure and shell were much harder than the Sea Locust, were overwhelmed, and the shrill alarm bells rang wildly in the command room.

The surface of the hull of each submarine is full of scars at the moment, showing scars of different shades.

In the long run, it is difficult to guarantee that the submarine will not suddenly disintegrate at some point.

However, at this time, no one dared to go out of the cabin to repair.

Not even a little bit of maintenance, not even a slight slowdown.

If the pace is slowed down for a minute, the submarine will immediately be surrounded by infinite sea monsters, frantically gnawing and biting.

At this moment, everyone can only pray silently, praying that the space they rely on for survival is strong enough, and use the most ferocious firepower to fight a bloody way for themselves!

The siege is still going on, and Goldfinger's hints for these sea monsters are indeed quite in place.

They don't care about the life or death of themselves or their companions, and they don't let go of their mouths when they keep an eye on the long-distance fleet.

By the time the fleet rushed out of the distance of nearly three kilometers, Zhou Tian's blood had been diluted quite shallowly.

But those sea monsters with distorted and deformed bodies are still coming one after another.

And in the sea area where the space node is located, there are also a large number of anomalies that are constantly being born, seemingly endless.

After these new anomalies appear, they will also rush towards the fleet with a clear goal, like a hungry ghost, taking the fleet as a prey.

In just a few minutes, everyone had no idea how much ammunition had been poured out.

The ammunition box was changed round after round, and there was no time to tidy it up, so it was placed on the ground in the artillery control room.

All the security officers on duty were red-eyed, and the fingers holding the firing button were a little pale from the exertion.

At this time, as the fleet gradually moved away from the central area where the space node was located, the anomalies on the sonar display finally began to become loose

Get up.

At a certain moment, his eyes were fixed on the sonar display, and according to the topographic map simulated by the sound wave signal feedback, Meng Lei fled frantically.

Suddenly, it was discovered that there was an extremely special and huge anomaly, which gradually revealed a faint shadow under the cover of many ordinary anomalies.

The type of anomaly Meng Lei was a little unfamiliar, and he had never seen it before.

However, he vaguely felt that its appearance was somewhat similar to the hammer-headed Mother Emperor he had encountered.

Meng Lei was immediately shocked, then realized something, and hurriedly looked at it.

Through the moment when the anomaly was hastily revealed, pale golden words emerged.

Goldfinger finally gave a detailed text prompt.

(At a distance of 320 meters ahead, a wandering Abyss Devourer was spotted, and the danger level was SS-class!)

Keep your distance from them or you'll be their first breakfast in the shallow area! )

(The Abyssal Eater, a super-large abyss-class alien sea monster that typically exists in the deep seas between 10,000 and 12,000 meters.)

This terrifying creature is an aberration of some kind of deep-sea octopus, with numerous strangely shaped fins and tentacles.

But its powerful jaws and razor-sharp teeth make it more like a close relative of a mire velociraptor

Due to its inexplicable distortion due to unknown factors, the creature's living habits are also different from those of other large sea monsters, and its desire to eat can be unpredictable depending on the change of mood.

However, once you encounter this moody sea monster, you still have to flee as soon as possible.

It is the largest in the shallow zone, and has unparalleled destructive power, which will be a nightmare for all submarines below the B-rank sequence! )
