"When Antarctica melted, many new species appeared on the continent. We originally thought that they had been hiding under the ice. Later, when we found the Great Void, we thought … they might have come from the Great Void."
"These new species include hundreds of plants and dozens of animals. Now, almost all the animals and plants in Antarctica belong to these new species. Among these new species, there are some with higher intelligence. We call them 'Feather Teeth'."
The elevator had stopped, but the helicopter was still roaring. In front of Lin's spy was … a very dense forest.
This was the bottom of the Great Void. Here, Lin could see a very special environment.
A large number of plants with dark brown leaves grew here. Almost all of them were plants called 'ferns'. However, there were many types of ferns. Some were as tall as giant trees, while others were very small. The main characteristic was that none of their leaves were green. They were all dark in tone.
In this forest, the cries of various creatures echoed. Lin could hear … the cries of the local aborigines. Their cries were somewhat like the cries of Ershi Min babies, echoing in the surroundings.
These aborigines called 'Feather Teeth' were creatures that were over one meter tall, covered in bird feathers, and had four limbs and a long tail. According to the information, 'Feather Teeth' were believed to have evolved from a prehistoric creature. They had intelligence close to the Ershi Min, but they were still in the era of stone tools.
After Antarctica melted, Feather Teeth spread all over Antarctica. However, they were quickly hunted down by the Ershi Min. There were many reasons why they were hunted down. For example, they were delicious, they were a threat, they wanted to be pets, they killed for fun, and so on.
It was said that the Ershi Min had tried … to educate them. However, they refused all education and attacked the educator. This was probably one of the reasons why these creatures were hunted down.
Now, many criminals wandering here wanted to hunt them down. As the hunting intensified, the number of Feather Teeth became scarce, and their price rose.
Later, they disappeared from the surface, but they still lived in the hollow. Because no criminals could reach the hollow, these creatures were considered safe. However, they were extremely hostile to Ershi Min.
Here, they would use a special plant called 'Peng Bang Grass' to attack the Ershi Min. This plant had a certain 'invisibility' function and could even shoot out the stone arrows they placed inside.
But just like what Lin had seen before, it didn't seem to work.
"So, now that it's the end, what do you want to do next?"
Under the illumination of the elevator, the Ershi soldiers who came down with the spy were on high alert as they stared at the dark forest around them. This was originally a completely dark place, as if the plants here had originally grown in pure darkness. The brightly colored Ershi Min said to the spy, "This place is very dangerous, it's not suitable to stay here for long …"
"Let's go to Base One first," the spy said to Ershi Min. "We'll make a decision there."
"Base One …" The brightly colored Ershi Min was surprised, but it didn't show it on its face …
Base 1 was the base they built here. Although the big hole looked ten kilometers in diameter on the surface, it was much bigger below. There was a rather large underground space. Of course, the people of Er Sha also came here to explore and built some bases here.
The gravity control device that kept the research station afloat was actually built in these bases.
"Okay … Let's go there." After a moment of hesitation, the brightly colored Ershi Min said, "We'll go there first."
It seemed like it took a lot of effort to come to this decision. After that, it picked up the phone and said, "Code 12, continue forward."
After that, the three helicopters in the sky slowly descended to the ground. Lin noticed that six mechanical legs extended from the lower abdomen of these helicopters. After landing steadily on the ground, the propellers were retracted into the fuselage.
So that's how it is, it can really transform. Lin remembered seeing the full name of this type of helicopter when she was looking through the information … It was called '1001 Multi-Purpose Armed Transformation Helicopter'.
"Please go in, the journey is dangerous, so we have to take this."
The side door of the helicopter opened. Lin, the brightly colored Ershi Min, and the other soldiers who came down from the elevator boarded the helicopters. Then, the helicopters crawled on the ground like … insects and slowly moved towards the base.
Taking this kind of helicopter was indeed very safe … for the Ershi Min. However, Lin still hadn't seen the gunship they mentioned before.
It was said that the speed of these helicopters was around 400 kilometers per hour. Using the rocket engine, they could reach around 2500 kilometers per hour. However, that was only in the sky.
On the ground, their speed was only around 10 kilometers per hour.
Perhaps because they had to squeeze through a large number of plants, these helicopters moved very slowly. However, their crawling was still stable. Looking at the dense black plants outside the window, Lin noticed that the soldiers in the helicopters were more or less afraid.
Although Lin still hadn't seen the 'danger' they were afraid of, it probably wasn't the aboriginals called Feather Teeth.
This was because they didn't take the aboriginals seriously before and easily dealt with them. Perhaps there was an even bigger … creature here.
Rumble.
Just as Lin was thinking about that, she heard a sound coming from afar in the forest. It sounded like something had hit the ground hard. All the soldiers in the helicopter were on alert. The helicopter immediately shone a light in the direction of the sound.
They could see some swaying black plants, but they didn't see any living creatures …
"Speed up."
The brightly colored Ershi Min suddenly said something. The helicopters on the ground … began to run wildly.
They kept moving their six metal legs, increasing their speed to more than twice their previous speed. They left a path of crushed plants behind them. The helicopters ran for nearly a hundred seconds before stopping.
Lin also saw … it seemed that they had arrived at the base.
The base was quite large. It was surrounded by metal walls more than six meters high. Inside, there were many square buildings and a few tall towers.
There seemed to be some soldiers standing guard on the towers. However, they didn't react when they saw the helicopters running over.
