The silent night that had lasted for a long time was broken.
It was as if an invisible force was violently stirring under the surface, setting off an undercurrent, making the silent night no longer silent. An ordinary night was no longer ordinary.
Here, the world rotated eternally.
The constant rotation between the rings made the terrain extremely changeable. Even a simulated map could not predict what would happen in the next round of changes.
The longer one stayed here, the more one could understand the vastness and complexity of this hell.
The entire Twilight Village was too big. Just the internal area was comparable to the size of Pseudo Qiongzhou.
Countless machines that seemed to be out of control were still operating on their own after such a long time. Countless huge modules grew crazily regardless of the consequences, causing the entire Twilight Village to be in an eternal state of abnormal growth.
The complicated underground structure, as well as the continuous rise and fall, expansion and contraction of the modules on the ground, completely turned this place into a maze.
And the machines on the edge of the Twilight Village were still excavating and producing.
The construction site, the expansion of the territory, and the embryonic form of the rings.
The out-of-control Von Neumann was like a machine, constantly squandering its own productivity, creating ruins one after another.
In the front passenger seat, Huai Shi pinched his chin and looked at the dizzyingly complicated map on the screen. He then looked up at the messy route in front of him.
He scratched his head and said seriously, "I think we need someone from Yuzhou to lead the way …"
"Yuzhou?" Raymond asked, "What is that place? It sounds very powerful. "
"Yeah, going in from the bottom, taking the elevator to the sixteenth floor only to find that it was a basement. Coming out from the top of the building and returning to the ground, walking for eighty kilometers, it's scary just thinking about it."
Huai Shi talked casually and looked down at the remote control in his hand. Pressing the green button would shoot out a laser, and pressing the red button … To be honest, he didn't dare to press it.
But there was always a hint of eagerness to try.
The description on the back cover was' safe distance of three kilometers'. If he didn't do it well, it would become a mutual destruction. It would be funny to think that they would be wiped out as soon as they went out.
If news of his death spread, he was afraid that this year's Darwin Award trophy would be placed on his urn.
It was better not to mess around.
"How much further?" Huai Shi asked.
"It's more than 50 kilometers now. According to the exploration team, the target area is very conspicuous and can be seen from a very long distance in the dark." Raymond's hand swiped on the interface, bringing up the reference of the straight-line distance.
"Vision?"
Huai Shi raised his head in confusion and stared into the darkness in the distance.
It was so dark, how could he see anything?
However, not long after, when the speeding truck passed through the underground tunnel and drove up the overpass, he caught a glimpse of the crimson sky behind the ruins of tall buildings in the distance.
It was as if a volcano was erupting.
Amidst the clouds, the gargoyle spread its giant bat wings and ascended. Soon, it sent a signal downwards.
A large number of hellish hordes had gathered.
Huai Shi carried the wind lantern and flipped onto the roof of the carriage. With a wave of his hand, he threw out the Rope of Sorrow and tied it to the legs of the gargoyles. Then, their strength rose into the air and they looked towards the direction of the fire.
They heard the roar of burning.
A huge chimney like a nuclear power plant was releasing billowing smoke. In the chimney, dancing flames surged and gathered into a ferocious crimson that illuminated the night.
In the reflection of the fire, shadows of complicated structures were thrown into the distance.
Those dense chimneys extended from the ground like a jungle. Huge pipes ran through the countless jars like vines in an intricate manner.
Even in the dark, there were still countless lights rising, illuminating everything.
Huai Shi put down the binoculars in disbelief.
Was that an oil refinery?
Before he could react, a roar suddenly erupted.
The earth trembled.
An oil storage tank was detonated.
Air waves spread. In the burned and broken tanks, boiling fuel poured out and flew up with the hurricane, forming a deadly storm.
The fire was endless, falling from the sky.
Countless mutants hidden in the surroundings were startled and screamed.
These native creatures, who used the fire to avoid the curse of the night, felt the arrival of the crisis and screamed uneasily.
As the oil splashed, a red signal flare rushed out of the sea of fire, rose into the clouds, and suddenly exploded, spreading out a dazzling high-frequency flash.
That was the signal for help from the advance group!
Then, there was an ear-piercing sound spreading.
In the boiling black clouds, a huge tentacle that looked like a ribbon slowly dropped down and caught the flashing signal flare. The tentacle contracted and easily extinguished the signal flare in the clouds.
There was only a flash of light that outlined the silhouette in the clouds.
Jellyfish!
It was a jellyfish that was so huge that it was completely unreasonable!
In the burning red smoke and clouds, it wriggled its canopy, swimming in the clouds that were as hot as a furnace like a fish in water.
Tentacles slowly stretched out, climbed on the huge chimneys of the oil refinery, pulled out the towering chimneys like toothpicks, broke them, rolled them up, and threw them to other places.
With continuous explosions, the center of the earth slowly collapsed, revealing the path to the inner layer. Countless shadows like black dots jumped into the cracks, and there were flames flickering in it.
A large group of strange abyss arrived here.
The war had already begun.
It was even faster than Huai Shi had expected.
When Huai Shi tried to connect to the exploration team's signal there, he could only hear static. There was no doubt that the Ivy League had blocked all the signals before the war started.
They were too late after all.
Huai Shi returned to the car expressionlessly and said to Raymond, "Speed up."
"But there's no road ahead."
The driver looked helplessly at the broken gap in the distance. "We have to go around from other places."
"Why do we have to go around?"
Huai Shi turned back and asked, "Isn't the roof in front very spacious? Drive up — "
"If you want to talk about this, I won't be sleepy."
Raymond was stunned at first, then he smiled excitedly and rubbed his hands.
Before he finished, he suddenly asked, "Hey, do you get carsick?"
For some reason, looking at the man's smile, Huai Shi actually felt a faint premonition of death.
"Wait —"
Just as he was about to speak, he saw Raimondra pull down the red lever next to him.
"Let's go!!!"
In an instant, dozens of seat belts ejected from the seat and firmly tied him to the passenger seat. Then, in the rear compartment, the depth balancer was overclocked, isolating all external influences and forming a temporary enclosed area.
In the high-pitched sound of steel friction, the entire huge truck suddenly shook. After shaking off the heavy outer armor plate, from the end of the carriage, an engine nozzle that looked like a fighter jet was revealed.
Ice-blue flames were brewing in it and spewing out!
A terrifying thrust erupted from it and spread out, giving the truck wings to fly.
It spread out invisible wings and sped forward on the Duga, causing a whistling sound. It rushed out of the Duga fracture, trampled on gravity, and soared freely in the air.
After the terrifying mass of hundreds of tons drew a jaw-dropping arc in the air, as the tail flame extinguished, it slammed heavily on the top of a tall building. Then, it tore through the ceiling and continued to fall in the roar. After smashing through six or seven floors of ceilings, it finally stabilized in the ruins.
As the tires began to rotate again, the collapsed debris was pushed away by the front of the truck. The fragile walls were torn apart by the giant beast's gallop. Dust flew and the broken walls wailed.
The tail flame spurted out again, pushing the truck through the obstacles of the building. After crossing a distance of dozens of meters, it plunged straight into the ruins of another tall building. It rushed out of the collapsed site and jumped onto another broken road.
When it encountered a wall, it broke the wall. When it encountered an obstacle, it tore the obstacle. If it encountered a gap, it flew across the gap …
Raymond whistled excitedly, turned the steering wheel, and stepped on the accelerator. The huge truck drifted in the air.
It no longer cared about the road conditions or the surrounding scenery.
They were heading straight for the oil refinery!
Even if it was dozens of miles away, the roar of the truck's engine could be heard. It was the roar of the steel heart produced in the same batch as the fighter jet engine!
It was like the exaggerated scene of 'man and car as one' in cartoons and manga. On the truck, there was a layer of source flame rising.
As the wheels spun, streams of dazzling thunderbolts shot out, leaving behind a burning path.
A giant beast resembling a rhinoceros rose from the flame, roaring with its head raised.
Raymond's eyes were already like the headlights of a car, bursting with a blazing light. Until now … … Huai Shi discovered that this guy was actually a 'knight' in Celestial genealogy, a Level 3 Sublimator of the Eternal Road!
— — Gordium!
Named after the legendary chariot that humans offered to the God of Sky and Thunder, the one who untied the knot would dominate the fate of the world.
The extended meaning was the one who controlled fate.
Now, it was just like fate suddenly appeared.
Without any warning, it fell from the sky.
At this moment, the truck that had turned into a sky chariot spread thunder and fire, and its speed increased by several times. It was truly like lightning, shuttling through the turbulent night.
It tore through the layers of obstacles.
Finally, it broke through the last high wall and charged head-on into the burning rainstorm that kept falling from the sky.
With exaggerated tail swings and elegance, the rampaging truck set off a bloody storm in the crowd of hell.
In just four minutes, the long distance that made people despair was crossed so easily.
Then, dead silence suddenly came.
The truck came to an abrupt stop.
The door slowly opened.
In the reflection of the fire, a staggering figure walked out. When he landed, he didn't stand firm and almost fell to the ground.
"Yo, hello everyone!"
Huai Shi grinned and squeezed out a smile on his pale face. It was incomparably difficult.
Then, facing the solemn array in front of him, he held his knees and suddenly bent down.
"— Ugh!!!!"
