Section 117 - Demon Beasts from the Depths
While flying low into the depths, Lin Mo quickly found the few shivering civilian miners hiding in the corners of the tunnel, and fled out of the cave with a little intimidation.
The small town inn sent a limited amount of wild beef and ale, and these civilians who were not qualified to enjoy it because of their low status escaped the disaster.
However, the last one could not withstand the ruthlessness of the Portland strongman, and the innocent were involved in the battle, and most of them fell in the aftermath of the battle between the two sides.
After a special counter count, when Lin Mo found the demonic beast he had detected, it was already at the end of the tunnel, close to a depth of 75 kilometers.
According to the analysis of the data model of the Icerock Mountains, this distance is extremely close to completely penetrating the two sides of the mountain range, perhaps only a foot thick from the Silan Empire, and the lighting oil lamp has been replaced with a fist-sized flare crystal, releasing a snow-white light similar to illumination.
When Lin Mo found the locomotive-sized creature, it was already dying, its brown armor shattered in countless pieces, and its claws that cut into the rock were like cutting into tofu were soaked in dark purple blood.
"It's a monster!"
Through the appearance of the other party and the careful search of memories in his mind, Lin Mo quickly deduced the identity of the other party, which was completely unexpected, the other party was not a demonic beast, but an extremely rare demon beast.
"Terran?"
The giant beast lay down in the rubble at the end of the tunnel, its body slowly and weakly falling together, and suddenly let out an urn sound and a breathless voice.
Being able to speak confirmed its identity as a monster, which was a surprising answer.
Although in the eyes of the human race, there is no obvious difference between demon beasts and demonic beasts in the form of beasts at first glance, most of the demonic beasts of the demonic beast clan cannot be counted as intelligent species, and only a very small number of demonic beasts whose strength has reached the status or above have the ability to speak, even so, most of the demonic beasts above the status can only communicate with other intelligent species with their spiritual power.
"Ferrero?"
Lin Mo called out the name of the other party's demon beast group, and he didn't know if it was a coincidence. It sounds exactly like the name of a candy brand on the planet.
The Dragon Knight was still a little surprised, no wonder the Portlanders were so arrogant to break through the sides of a towering mountain range, and force their way through the extremely hard rock formations at a low altitude.
If it weren't for the acquisition of a powerful Earth Rock Ferrero Clan Demon Beast, how could he have done such a vast and terrifying project.
Seeing how weak it was, it was probably driven to death by the ruthless Portlanders, who treated it as a one-time consumable.
It's right to think about it, monsters aren't that easy to get, and maybe the Portlanders know very well that they can't get a second Ferrero monster.
"Are you not from Portland?"
Lin Mo's figure was printed in the pupils the size of a sea bowl, and the Ferrero Demon Beast did not move, as if looking at Lin Mo, who was shrouded in the dark black knight's heavy armor without any reflection.
"I'm a Slan. to end this tunnel. ”
After not feeling any hostility from the other party, Lin Mo said truthfully, without any intention of concealing it, saying that this Ferrero monster was probably not willing to be enslaved by the Portlanders like this.
The enemy of the enemy has a base that can be used as a friend, and the dragon knight who is good at dealing with dragons does not discriminate against those alien intelligent species.
"What a pity!"
The voice of the giant demon beast was full of regret, and I don't know if Lu Dao was lamenting that this tunnel was about to be dug through, or regretting his fate.
Even if it wasn't for the huge damage caused to the Portland powerhouse who was killed by the Dragon Knight and the others because a certain contract weapon on his body was destroyed in battle. I'm afraid it won't live long either.
"Do you need me to get you out of here?"
Lin Mo still maintained the proper etiquette for intelligent creatures.
The monster's giant mouth opened, revealing its stubby, hard, ball-like teeth, black and bright as jade. With a few meaningless ho-ho sounds, the huge head moved slightly, and finally said weakly: "Thank you, thank you, kind human race." But I'm going to die! Since you're going to end this place, then this is my burial place, and it's not easy to destroy such a long tunnel. I'll help you. ”
Suppressed by the spell contract and the god of magic, forced to dig this tunnel to the Slan Empire, the Ferrero Demon Beast is not willing to let the Portlanders succeed even if they face death.
Silent for a while!
The other party's tone couldn't help but remind people of the proud dragon Su who only had a transparent heart core crystal pillar left, Lin Mo nodded, and said with a somewhat heavy heart: "Xie Lu, thank you for the help of Lord Demon Beast! I will blow up the passage as long as possible, and I will leave the rest to you." ”
The credibility of the demon beast clan is much higher than that of the human race, who are good at deceiving me, Lin Mo does not doubt that the other party will deceive him, not to mention that if he wants to kill him, maybe he will be done with a single paw, even if he is wearing a "dragon general", it will not help.
Although the more than 1,000 kilograms of black powder brought by the elite support team can easily blow up a long distance, it is still a drop in the bucket for a tunnel that is tens of kilometers long.
But if there is a monster beast whose strength is at least above the status to help, it will be much easier, and when Portland wants to re-excavate, it is estimated that there will only be a sigh of hope and tears.
After speaking, the Ferrero Demon Beast slowly closed its eyes, and the surrounding earth elemental force began to vibrate firmly little by little, as if it was brewing a terrifying power.
Is this a countdown?
Saluting the Ferrero Demon Beast, whose life was already counting down, with an incomparably standard Slan Empire chest-beating military salute, Lin Mo turned around and left without hesitation.
"Countdown to 2 hours!"
Entering the law of this fluctuation into the "Dragon General" general, Lin Mo immediately got an accurate countdown value, the demon beast may be leaving him enough time to evacuate, or it may be accumulating enough strength to completely explode and release it at the last moment.
Half an hour later, Lin Mo met the sword god Chamberlain and the earth magician Red who were placing the black powder pack fifteen kilometers inside the tunnel.
Due to the insufficient amount of black powder, the only option was to choose a tunnel close to the Republic side of Portland to cause the explosion.
"Lord Morin, have you noticed anything? Two quarters of an hour ago, Magician Red noticed that there was earth elemental energy fluctuating in the depths of the tunnel. ”
The movement caused by the demon beast Ferrero caused a high degree of vigilance and worry to the sword god Chamberlain, this is the depths of the Ice Rock Mountain Range, and there are thick rock formations up and down, left and right. If there is any change, not only will they not be able to complete the task, but they may fall short at the end of the day, and all of them will be broken here.
"Don't worry, Lord Chamberlain, Lord Red, I have not encountered any resistance, at the end of the tunnel I encountered a dying Ferrero monster, which promised to unleash its last strength before it died, and it helped us destroy this tunnel. ”
Lin Mo gave a brief description of the situation he encountered.
"Ferrero Demon Beast?"
"The gods are above!"
The sword god Chamberlain and the magician Red looked at each other, but fortunately the dying monster was there to help them. Otherwise, in the current environment of the tunnel, it will not be much easier to deal with than the space system law god, or even more terrifying, this place is completely the home of the earth element affinity.
"Hurry up and set up the explosives, and I'll light the fire at the last time!"
Lin Mo did not hesitate and immediately joined the operation of planting explosives.
As for the hard-pressed Portland civilian miners in the depths of the tunnel, they are still desperately running out of the cave, after all, there is still a long way to go from the mouth of the cave.
They knew that the Dauslan were ready to destroy this place, even if they were about to vomit blood. I don't dare to slow down and stay here for burial.
The fluctuations of the earth elemental system in the depths of the tunnel became more and more obvious and more violent, and even the earth mage Red felt unafraid, it was the terrifying power released at the cost of the life of a demon beast. Maybe not much weaker than the forbidden spell.
Red, a fifth-order earth mage who made a temporary cameo appearance as a civil work demoman, used his perception of the tunnel structure to find several vulnerable places, and used spells to successfully lay out dozens of blasting points, which could destroy at least ten kilometers of tunnel sections.
This is also the optimal configuration calculated by the Gemini sisters. It's easy to destroy, it's hard to build, and Portlanders want to dig it up again. I'm afraid it won't save much more than re-excavation for the same distance.
Without an electric detonator detonation, you can only rely on manual ignition, so Lin Mo, who relies on the "Dragon General" to have the ability to fly, is naturally the best candidate.
The prediction of the countdown of the "Dragon General" was confirmed by the mage Red, who also confirmed that the terrifying force in the depths of the tunnel had accumulated to the point of imminent explosion.
Except for Lin Mo, all the others withdrew from the tunnel, and more than 1,000 catties of black powder were placed.
"Nerve gas released!"
The "Dragon General" tactical armor suddenly spewed out two strange air currents, quickly spreading towards both ends of the tunnel, the poison concocted by this modern technology is a real big killing weapon, even the poison made by the top poison master is difficult to compare, even if you only inhale a trace, even a brute bull will be killed on the spot.
After the tunnel is destroyed, some of the spaces that are still filled with poison gas will become deadly "mines", and the enclosed environment will give the gas a long shelf life, and once the blindless Portlanders dig these places back to death, they will definitely reap these surprising and desperate "gifts".
"A quarter of an hour!"
After releasing the poisonous gas, Lin Mo didn't care whether the earth-based demon beast heard it or not, roared into the depths of the tunnel with the loudest sound, turned around and ran wildly outside the cave, and constantly lit the fuses along the way.
The magnetic plasma engine behind the external enhanced armor glowed with a faint blue light, making his speed suddenly a few points faster.
"Whew"
As he approached the entrance of the tunnel, he heard an almost toned roar from the depths of the tunnel behind him.
There was no doubt that it was the monster that was making its last goodbye to the dragon knight. (To be continued......)
