'Boom …'
A dull sound … reverberated in the deep sea. NEW … .M
"It didn't hit … it doesn't seem to be nearby."
In a submarine, a group of Voidfolk stared at the 3D image in front of them with a serious expression. In the image, a flash of light appeared for a while at the previous explosion point, then disappeared.
Although it only lasted for a while, the light from the explosion was enough for these Voidfolk to see their surroundings clearly.
This place was still the same cold and dark sea, but it was already quite a distance away from the submerged city. Not long ago, the giant beast had smashed a hole in the city's protective wall, and it had swum out from that hole.
The submarine force reacted quickly, but they were unable to stop the giant beast, allowing it to escape from the city and enter the darker sea.
Therefore, the submarine force chased it all the way here … this was an area that almost no Voidfolk had explored before, this was the trench known as the 'World's Rift'.
There were no traces of power plants or Voidfolk here, it was said that the last time a Voidfolk came here to explore was already … a few hundred years ago.
Now, in order to hunt down this giant beast, the submarine force had no choice but to come to this place that was least understood in this world, to chase after the creature that escaped into the darkness.
Because the general had given the order to get rid of it, they could not let it attack other cities in the sea again.
Therefore, a large number of submarine forces came here, they formed a group of five and started to explore the trench and its surroundings. Now that they could confirm that the giant beast was in the trench, they only needed to seal off the periphery of the trench, then send the submarine to the trench to find it, then use all their strength to get rid of it.
This submarine force was in charge of carrying out the mission of killing the giant beast, and they came to this trench known as the 'World's Rift'.
The group of five submarines moved forward slowly, on both sides of them were the steep rock walls of the trench, the lights of the submarines shone on the rock walls, only barren and strange rocks could be seen.
Compared to looking at the outside environment. Most Voidfolk liked to stare at their detection system, this system would not show the strange and dark environment outside, it would only show the positions of their allies and enemies … represented by blue and red dots.
However, they could only see their allies, but not their enemies. Just now, because there seemed to be some movement in front, they shot an illumination mine, but they did not hit anything.
"It might not be here …" Seeing that the illumination light disappeared and the surroundings returned to darkness, a Voidfolk pilot said timidly, "Why don't … we go somewhere else to look."
"There are other teams elsewhere." The captain beside this Voidfolk did not seem to care, he said, "Our mission is to guard this place. Even if it's not here, we can't leave. That way, our troops can completely occupy the entire area, leaving it with nowhere to run … "
'Boom!!'
The moment the captain finished speaking, there was an explosion in the communicator. On the screen of the detection system … the submarine at the very back had turned red.
"We're under attack, help …"
At the same time, the voice of the Voidfolk in the submarine also sounded from the communicator, but it only lasted for a few seconds before it disappeared.
"Attack! Attack! "
When the captain gave the order, the other submarines immediately fired missiles in the direction of the last submarine.
Their missiles can be fired in any direction. '' '' '' '' '' '' ''s's's attack' '' ''s
The missiles swept past the damaged submarine with a large number of bubbles. They did not hit any targets and just flew into the distance.
"How could this be …" The members of the remaining four submarines looked at the scene in front of them in horror. The last submarine was almost half destroyed. Its tail was completely shattered, and the inside was already filled with seawater. It could not continue to float and was now slowly sinking to the bottom of the sea.
Before they could react and shoot the missiles, the giant beast that attacked the submarine had already escaped. So, they did not hit anything.
Moreover, they lost a submarine.
"Report! We've been attacked by a giant beast in our position! " The captain did not look at the wreckage of his allies in a daze. He immediately used the communication device to send a report. This way, more submarines would come here.
Although one of them was lost. But because of this, they had confirmed the giant beast's' 'location. They should be able to catch it now …
At the same time, not far from these submarines.
'Gulp …' A series of small bubbles floated up from the trench. The submarines did not notice that these bubbles were strange, and at the same time, they did not notice the source of the bubbles. The creature was staring at them.
The giant beast was below the submarines … in the darkness more than a hundred meters away from them.
Although the distance was quite close, the submarines did not notice it. It was staring at the remaining four submarines, but it did not intend to attack again.
The submarines seemed to be in a completely helpless state, but the giant beast itself was not in a good state. There was a large wound on its abdomen, and a small section of its tail was missing. At the same time, a few claws on one of its forelimbs were missing. There were also scars on its head, back, and shoulders.
These were left behind when it was escaping. On the way here, the giant beast had been bombarded by the submarines many times. These scars were all left behind at that time.
It was not until it hid here that it successfully hid in the darkness and avoided the continuous attacks of the submarines.
The giant beast … had many special abilities. One was that it was not affected by the detection system of the submarines. Those submarines could not know its location.
However, if it was too close, they would be able to discover it.
The giant beast's body was as afraid of seawater invasion as the submarines. The seawater could make the cells in its body stop working. However, the current damage was not enough for the seawater to penetrate too much … Therefore, the giant beast had to wait for an opportunity. If it was bombarded again, it would be in great danger … Therefore, it would not casually attack now.
It noticed that there were lights and sounds coming from above.
More submarines … came to this place. They seemed to be here to support the damaged team. Many of the submarines were swimming in the direction of the giant beast.
It was not suitable to stay here for too long …
The giant beast turned around and moved deeper into the trench. This huge trench gave it a good hiding place. If necessary, it could hide here for quite a long time.
However, it did not want to hide forever, so it planned to attack again like before.
There were five submarines swimming in this direction. One of them swam further ahead and pulled away from its companions. This looked … like a suitable target.
However, the giant beast's intelligence told it that this should be a trap. The Voidman deliberately made a target move forward. If it attacked that submarine now, it would expose itself to the firepower of the other submarines.
With that thought, the giant beast turned back and continued to swim deeper into the trench. Those submarines seemed to have noticed something below and were chasing after it.
Did they discover it?
Just as the giant beast was thinking about this, a sound suddenly came from one of the submarines. Several missiles were shot out from both sides of the giant beast. These missiles shone brightly as they headed this way. They were very slow. They were probably used for exploration.
The giant beast saw this and shook its body. Most of its scales and skin suddenly fell off from its body.
It was like a creature shedding its skin. However, the giant beast was much faster. Soon, a complete piece of skin fell off from its body.
Strangely, after this piece of skin left the giant beast's body, it slowly floated in the same place. The giant beast then got rid of the skin and swam in another direction.
Not long after the giant beast swam away, the flashing missiles shone on the skin it left behind.
Almost without any hesitation, a large number of missiles immediately flew over, and the skin instantly turned into powder amidst the rumbling sounds.
In the eyes of the Voidman, the difference between the giant beast's skin and its body was very small. Because the light was blurry and the skin was like its body … it would show a 'temperature' reaction.
This made the Voidman unable to treat it as a fake target. Therefore, the giant beast had a chance …
It was supposed to be like this.
The giant beast originally wanted to sneak around and attack the Voidman while they were attacking the skin. However, when it was circling around, the giant beast saw something in the distance.
On the seabed in the distance … there was a strange light shining.
That was the bottom of the trench. The light attracted the giant beast. This made it swim in that direction and give up on attacking the submarines.
Why did the light attract it so much?
The giant beast wanted to know …
It turned back to look at the submarines. Those submarines stopped after their skin was blown off. They were obviously confirming and doubting … because they did not know if they had succeeded or not.
The giant beast was getting further and further away from them. Soon, the giant beast reached the deepest part of the seabed.
The ground here had a strange light. It was like a network of cracks. It scattered on the seabed and each crack had a faint fluorescent light.
The giant beast landed on the fluorescent light. It used a round hole on its head to suck in a large amount of seawater near the cracks. Then it checked the composition of the seawater. This was a method similar to smell.
This was … food.
The giant beast looked at the fluorescent cracks, and this thought appeared in its mind. Thus, it opened its claws and scratched the ground forcefully. The original cracks were widened by the giant beast, and a large number of glowing objects gushed out like spring water from within.
The giant beast opened its mouth and swallowed them all.
Although these objects were small, the giant beast felt that they could provide a considerable amount of … energy. However, digesting them would take some time. They would be sent to an organ first. There, the seawater would be expelled before digesting them.
At this time, it was time to destroy a few submarines. (To be continued.)
