Chapter 142 Siege
Giant Spider World, the grotto that Jian Hua and Li Fei had been to.
The temperature here rose, and the spiders entrenched nearby fled one after another. The originally dark and damp cave became unbearably hot and stuffy. Cheng Lao covered his chest and gasped for breath with a wry smile.
Ordinary people can't stand such a hot and humid place, let alone he is old.
Cheng Lao clearly heard the sound of bubbling in the pool in the middle of the grotto.
Cheng Lao, who had been to the mountains when he was young, took a closer look and his expression changed. This is a hot spring.
Hot springs are different from hot springs. The latter is a kind of enjoyment. The hot springs can reach a maximum of ninety degrees, and no matter what falls into it, it will be cooked alive.Steam filled the cave, how could it not be hot?
Vigorously active hot springs represent frequent crustal movements, and there may be active volcanoes nearby.
In the event of an earthquake, the consequences would be disastrous.
Cheng Lao used his cane to push aside the spider web. The spider web was originally very thick, but after being covered with steam droplets, the stickiness began to decrease.There was a strange smell in the air. It was the smell of the paralytic toxin volatilized from the spider silk. After walking less than five meters outside the cave, Cheng Lao felt dizzy and quickly retreated.
Cheng Lao was very worried.
It didn't take long for him to find the gap in the rock wall where he could escape, and tried the width. It was not a big problem with being fat or thin, but he couldn't see the end in front of him. If it was a dead end, he might get stuck halfway if he wanted to go back.
Old Cheng sighed, he never thought he would die in such a weird place after seeing all the ups and downs in his life.
"Ok?"
There are footprints beside the rock wall, and there are more than one person.
At this time, Cheng Lao didn't know that Geng Tian, who was not at the Red Dragon Base, had also joined the one-way tour package of Giant Spider World.
——The news of Li Fei Jianhua's disappearance half a month ago just came, and the Red Dragon Base welcomed another Australian A-level supernatural being, Rem.
The red dragon learned about the existence of the giant spider world from Rem.
This is a place where life is extinct. The spiders here have no natural enemies, and their size is getting bigger and bigger, and finally almost eats up all the creatures in this world.No matter where you go, all you see is spider silk...
Without food, the spiders kill each other and hunt each other.
The spider silk covered the vegetation, and the trees and grasslands began to disappear in patches.
The researchers of the Red Dragon said that the space of the earth itself may have been affected by the book walker, and the "shell" was no longer firm and became very easy to penetrate. This is the reason why the void in the sky appeared earlier.At the same time, it has provoked a world of giant spiders that are "touching porcelain", and the creatures are extinct, trying to get rid of all the "scourge".
The earth may not be the first place where it lost "spiders", and it probably won't be the last, depending on how long they have overlapped and overlapped. If they are left alone, the earth will be in big trouble.
The number of spiders that ate up the entire world is astonishing, and it is difficult for ordinary supernatural beings to deal with.
Mr. Cheng participated in this discussion meeting, but he didn't expect to turn around and experience it for himself on the way back.
——I hope that Major Zhang will not have any accidents. The Red Dragon Base can lose an old Cheng. If Zhang Yaojin is missing, the wind-type superpower named Rem is still at the base. Does the Red Dragon expect a corgi to suppress Lei? M, let the outsiders be quiet?
There are many high-level supernatural beings in China, but they are leaking out like a leak. Where can I find someone?
Mr. Cheng sighed heavily. He examined the footprints carefully and found that there were only traces of going to that gap.
Old eyesight is dim, and there is not much light in the cave, so it is really difficult to explore with only the flashlight and hands.
Cheng Lao was about to straighten his waist and stood up slowly to prevent himself from getting dizzy, but the light source of the flashlight in front of him still had a strange swaying scene. Cheng Lao firmly grasped the flashlight, and the light swept back and forth, and he couldn't help closing his eyes ——
"what!"
There was a short scream.
Why is there anyone in the grotto?Cheng Lao looked up in astonishment, and he blinked several times before realizing that the scene in front of him had changed drastically.
There are no bubbling hot springs, no overhanging bamboo-like cave roofs, but an underground passage several people wide, and ancient stone vaults, just like the remains of ancient cities thousands of years ago in the documentary.
Cheng Lao's flashlight was shining directly on a young girl with blond hair.
She turned her head, took a few steps back, held the gun in her hand, and watched Cheng Lao with vigilant eyes.
She is not very old, but she is in good shape and looks very beautiful. After discovering that the "competitor" is an unarmed old man, the girl quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
She spoke English from the first word, Cheng Lao couldn't understand half a word.
The girl frowned, and said two words in Chinese in a strange tone: "Heiyuan?"
Cheng Lao's expression changed slightly.
The girl leaned her back against the cave wall, turned around and ran away quickly.
There is a deep tunnel at the corner, and the dark steps lead to an unknown place. Mr. Cheng didn't chase after it. He put out the flashlight and listened to the sound of the other side of the tunnel.
There are at least five high-level supernatural beings fighting nearby.
The stone wall was buzzing, and the aftermath of the energy surge was everywhere. Cheng Lao also heard the low growls of groups of monsters. From such a distance, only Cheng Lao could tell what kind of monsters these sounds belonged to.
There is a noise of the pen tip rubbing against the sandpaper, as if a heavy object is dragged on the ground, and the thick paint is scratched...
"Man-eating squid!"
Old Cheng's face changed drastically. He had a close encounter with this top predator who abandoned the world. The Huaicheng superhuman paid a considerable price to kill a man-eating squid.
Now this movement, there are obviously more than two.
Fortunately, the direction of travel of the man-eating squid is not here.
"What's there?" Cheng Lao said to himself. He knew the habit of this monster very well. Once the man-eating squid finds more valuable prey, it will immediately turn around to look for it, even if there is food in front of it, it will not pay much attention. Dedicated to the pursuit of "delicious".
Mr. Cheng himself is A-level, and the girl just now is probably also A-level, but the man-eating squid did not come in this direction...
"Jane Hua?"
Even A-levels don't like it, so only S-levels are left.
Cheng Lao hesitated for half a minute, but still hurried over there.
When turning a bend, Cheng Lao heard the sound of rapid breathing behind a rock wall, without moving, as if squatting there, and then the sound of a bullet being loaded.
Cheng Lao smiled wryly, it seems that this is going to deal with him...
Without avoiding alerting the ambushers, he continued to move forward, only activating the ability.
There was a muffled sound from behind the rock wall, and the ambusher hit the ground with his head in pain, bleeding from his facial features.Infrasound waves are inaudible, but they are very lethal, and Mr. Cheng dare not use them normally. This kind of ability can easily cause accidental injury, because after the sound waves spread out, they will last until they disappear, and they will continue to wear out in the middle. Living things will be affected by the distance.
As powerful as it sounds, there really isn't a more "awkward" ability than this one.
Many people with supernatural powers developed dizziness symptoms together, and those with high-level supernatural powers were better, while others vomited directly, staggered and couldn't stand steadily.
The monster also became agitated. A few sharp-toothed beasts around opened their mouths and bit their companions, causing confusion.
"Heiyuan's 'Magic Sounder'?"
"Someone saw the 'Ursa Major', and now they even...how lucky!"
These conversations took place in the hastily formed alliance of A-level abilities.
The alliance is not big, and it is scattered into several small groups. It's not that they are suspicious of each other, but because they don't understand each other.
For example, a wood-type power user in South America is with a person dressed as a priest in an African tribe, even though they can't even understand each other's words, and they can't figure out that their own world is actually a big secret like this book However, surrounded by powerful enemies on all sides, not finding an alliance is tantamount to waiting for death, so I have to choose someone who is pleasing to my eyes.
For example, appearance and dressing, or matching abilities and attributes.
Among them, those small groups that can communicate in English are the largest in number and full of momentum. Some of them look arrogant when they look at people from remote areas of the world, including the original ordinary abilities in this dungeon.
People who don't even know "fate" are useless no matter how powerful they are.
Looking at them, one can clearly understand the abilities of the "enemy". This kind of huge advantage can throw others away at once.
The blond girl Cheng Lao met before was also in the crowd. She looked very disturbed, and she didn't seem to talk much.
"Rosemary, I heard that you just met a yellow man who looks very old?"
"I ran so fast that I didn't see clearly..." the girl whispered, "I was afraid it was a red scorpion."
Her expression was full of sadness. Two days ago, someone found a blood-stained platinum necklace on the surface wasteland. It belonged to Rosemary's sister Jennifer.
The pair of sisters are both A-level fire-type supernatural beings. They are five years apart in age, but they look alike.
The younger sister, Rosemary, is a little shorter, and her figure is not so hot. The two sisters can be easily distinguished when they stand together. If they are separated, they can take a glimpse from a distance, or just meet each other... After a while, everyone will not know Was it my sister Jennifer or my sister Rosemary that I saw at the beginning?
This is still the present, and if three or four years later, and my sister Rosemary is of age, the difference between them will be even smaller.In the original book, many people couldn't tell whether the blonde beauty who had feuded with him was his sister or his sister.
The protagonist, Johnson Brown, saw such a beautiful woman in the ruins in his teens that he was tempted. He met her several times but did not have a deep friendship. He regarded her as the goddess in his heart, and unfortunately fell in love with an ordinary girl.In the end, his S-level strength was exposed, and his girlfriend and partner died. Johnson came to the U.S. Bureau of Abilities and met his first love again, but this time the distance between them did not seem far away.
Missions, tactical training... Johnson and the blond beauty met again and again, and the relationship grew from far to close. Just when the protagonist stuttered and practiced for a week, and was about to confess to Rosemary after the all-hands meeting held by the Ability Bureau— —A thunderbolt from the blue sky, he saw a pair of sisters who were similar in appearance with only slight differences.
Johnson could tell that Rosemary had always been the one he met since he arrived at the Ability Bureau, and the other party obviously had a crush on him, but Johnson really couldn't tell whether the one he met when he was a teenager was Rosemary or her sister Jennifer.
Johnson couldn't ask, and the situation couldn't allow them to fall in love slowly, so he had to keep this matter in his heart and struggle slowly.
Later, Jennifer was killed by Dr. Crazy, and Johnson's question had no meaning. He was engaged to Rosemary before the final battle.Who is his first love, the original book did not explain at the end.
The two platinum necklaces that their parents had specially made for them, the style, weight, and size were advertised by the book runners as one of the ways to distinguish the two sisters.
This pair of fire-type A-level sisters has a good relationship, a tacit understanding, and a powerful team. They are important members of the American Bureau of Abilities.
Now that something may have happened to Jennifer, many people have sympathy on their faces and gloat in their hearts.
——Everyone is inseparable, two A-levels who can't disagree, the threat is great.
There were not many people who could kill Jennifer, and no one else could even find the body, only the red scorpion. In just a few days, two A-level power users had mysteriously disappeared.
"There are more and more people in Heiyuan. They now have two S and two A grades. One must be eliminated."
"Rosmary, did you meet someone there just now?"
"The entrance to the third floor of the dungeon, the terrain there is complicated."
"Great, now let's arrange it, just—"
The sound stopped abruptly, and everyone saw the huge tentacles appearing at the end of the passage.
"Man-eating squid?"
In such a narrow place as the dungeon, the huge body of the man-eating squid looks extremely hideous, and the mollusk can twist itself and stuff it into any gap. It was a shocking scene, the upper and lower passages were filled with dangling tentacles at the same time, the timid people would faint.
"Didn't it mean that there are no scary monsters here?"
"The monsters in the dungeon, don't they eat almost all the devouring mushrooms?"
Rosemary curled her lips: Even if they didn't, there are so many high-level supernatural beings here, and the man-eating squids probably have to travel across the mountains to come here.
After thinking about it, she had to follow everyone to find a way out in a hurry.
"Don't panic, get out of the way, it will go to the Devourer!"
"what!"
A person with supernatural powers was startled by the sudden appearance of man-eating squid eyes.
"What's it called, it's just the eyes... no, there are man-eating squid's eyes over there too!"
The "meat" squeezed in was "inflated" again in the spacious place, and the turbid and huge eyes appeared, and now such eyes appeared in different directions.
Although the man-eating squid has the ability to squeeze and deform, it cannot separate the two parallel eyes so far. Even if it is a super-sized man-eating squid, why does it divide its head into two sides?
"More than one man-eating squid, we are surrounded!"
