The defense forces stationed at the Great God Mountain were the Silver Legion and the underground people's army. Probably, they had already received the news from Yiyi Si. A fat officer was trotting over, looking a little nervous and uneasy. The news of the spaceship landing at the base had probably also spread here. As a high-ranking officer, he could still hear some news one step earlier than the people below him.
"Mr. Chu?" Looking at Chu Yunsheng's familiar body, the middle-aged officer asked cautiously, "I'm Zhao Yiliang, do you want to take a rest or go to the inner hall now?"
Chu Yunsheng glanced at his silver helmet and said, "No need to rest, let's go straight."
"Yes, sir." The middle-aged officer, who was wearing a black raincoat, saluted, and then hurriedly led the way.
Chu Yunsheng didn't speak, and he didn't dare to speak. After walking for about a few minutes, seeing that they were about to reach the elevator, and his "reception" task was about to be completed, Chu Yunsheng suddenly stopped and said, "wait, I want to ask you something."
The middle-aged officer immediately stopped and stood uneasily.
Chu Yunsheng glanced at the elevator guard behind him and said calmly, "Has the news of the spaceship been passed to you?"
The middle-aged officer's heart sank, and he didn't dare to speak carelessly. He nodded nervously and said, "But it hasn't been spread yet."
Chu Yunsheng thought for a moment and said, "I don't have time to see the highest officer here. Tell them that the current situation here is very good. No matter what they hear later, don't change anything. Continue to carry out the original plan. Otherwise, no matter what the final result is, they will be punished."
The fat middle-aged officer immediately promised, "Mr. Chu, there will definitely be no problem on our side. I'm just afraid that the underground people will be in a mess."
Chu Yunsheng glanced at him and walked to the elevator and said, "I will make other arrangements for them. You guys take care of your own things first."
"Yes, sir." The middle-aged officer saluted and watched Chu Yunsheng enter the elevator and leave.
Then, he stared at the guard next to him with a stern face, warning him not to speak carelessly.
The guard felt wronged and lowered his head. He was very depressed. He didn't want to hear any secrets, but they just had to say it here. It wasn't like he could become blind and deaf immediately. What the hell was this?
The person in charge of leading the way in the elevator was a young female officer. Chu Yunsheng didn't say anything, she just stood on the side. Probably because of this extremely sensitive period, whether it was officers or ordinary soldiers, they were all very careful.
The lift passage was not vertical, but a long slope. The slope was very steep, but this kind of slope could not be felt in the box ladder. It could only be understood through the architectural drawings on the inner wall.
At the end of the passage, the staircase door opened. There were already a few people waiting outside.
Chu Yunsheng didn't know the earthlings and underground people in military uniforms. They were probably the higher-ups here, and they rushed here as soon as they got the news. But he only recognized the two people in the front.
One was the Sea Nation's First Hall Master, and the other was Xiao Mai.
"Why are you here?" Chu Yunsheng glanced at Xiao Mai, and then his eyes fell on the First Hall Master.
Since he gave him the new cultivation method, he rarely saw this person. He was either hiding in a corner to practice, or he was studying the techniques of the Elite Spies with Professor Ron.
"This place is surrounded by the sea, and the environment is very bad. They are worried that something will happen, so they asked me to come and help." The First Hall Master smiled awkwardly. He was probably afraid that Chu Yunsheng would think that he was here to steal the ice elemental core.
"That's it?" Chu Yunsheng didn't believe it, but he also didn't think that he was here for the ice elemental core. If it was Xiao Mai, he would believe it, but the First Hall Master definitely didn't have the guts to do that.
Chu Yunsheng actually didn't know much about Xiao Mai. His relationship with him had never been good. Just like Xiao Changyu from the Heavenly Feather Clan, he didn't want to bring him along.
Although he was not the kind of person who would hesitate for a long time to kill Diao Dingguo, he was not the kind of person who would kill anyone he disliked for no reason. Although it was a bit troublesome for Xiao Mai and Xiao Changyu to stay, there was an advantage.
He was still not sure where the contract he gave to Buterne came from. If he was sure that it came from the purification ability of the black gas, then he could still use this method of borrowing the chicken to lay the egg. Once something happened to Xiao Mai and Xiao Changyu, and he had mastered the ability to seize the contract, he could get two contracts.
He now only had Buterne as a reliable cardinal. If he had two more, even one, he could give it to Ba Yi, then he would have two reliable cardinal forces.
However, this kind of thing must not be told to others, or else the other cardinals would all be in danger, worried that one day he would use them to take away the contract. This was not a joke. If the black gas could really purify the contract, even the spirits would chase him to death.
Of course, if Xiao Mai and Xiao Changyu lived in harmony, he would never do this kind of thing. It was good to borrow the chicken to lay the egg, but it was not appropriate to kill the chicken to get the egg.
Therefore, if it was said that Xiao Mai wanted to grab the ice elemental core, Chu Yunsheng believed it. He felt that it was possible. Xiao Mai had always wanted to become stronger, especially after he was defeated by Xue Yuan Messenger. It was said that it was the first time in his life that he lost, but the first temple master of Hai Kingdom would definitely not do that.
The Great God Mountain was just one of the many development bases on the Cold Star. How could they command a grand cardinal to help?
Seeing that Chu Yunsheng did not believe it, the first temple master of Hai Kingdom laughed dryly and sighed, "It is quiet here, there are not so many things."
Chu Yunsheng looked at it. He could understand the meaning of this sentence. The outside world was in a mess. No matter what the forces of various races did on the surface, they should be secretly looking for their respective cardinals to join the battle. If they did not want to participate in the battle, it was a good place to hide here.
Then he suddenly realized that this sentence seemed to have another meaning. Was it trying to show him its position in this conflict?
Did it not care?
Chu Yunsheng faintly felt that after he came back, after the conversation with him on the roof of the starship, the lord of the Sea Race seemed to have changed again. It seemed like the lord of the Sea Race was very afraid of him.
But Chu Yunsheng was very confused. It was a cardinal, not an ordinary person who had never seen the world. Moreover, although he had killed many people, including the tomb keeper and Xue Yuan Messenger, he had never gone crazy and killed people. With the level and knowledge of a cardinal, what was it afraid of?
Chu Yunsheng could not figure it out for a while, so he looked at Xiao Mai, who was silent on the side, and did not say anything.
At this time, a senior officer of the underground people hurriedly said, "Master Xiao Mai was also invited by us to help."
Chu Yunsheng was slightly surprised. Seeing this, the first temple master said helplessly, "he really came to help. There are some places in here that even I can't enter, but he can."
"Because of the contract?" Chu Yunsheng looked at Xiao Mai in surprise, and immediately thought of the cardinal contract.
According to Hull's description, Xiao Mai's contract came from the Great God Mountain. At that time, Hull and Aphro found a total of two contracts, one of which had been used by Aphro, and the other one was lost to Xiao Mai at the last moment.
If the place that the first temple master, a senior cardinal, could not enter, but Xiao Mai, a new cardinal, could enter, other than the nature of the contract, Chu Yunsheng could not think of any other reason.
As expected, the First Temple Master of the Sea Nation nodded and said in a serious tone, "I think so. This might be the temporary residence of a deity. When we came here, we were attacked by it. According to the legends of the Sea Nation, in this situation, only the people recognized by the deity can enter its restricted area."
Its explanation was very detailed, but it made Xiao Mai feel very embarrassed, because the orthodox god that the people of the Cold Star were now promoting was Chu Yunsheng, who was standing here. Although Xiao Mai was a cardinal, he was first and foremost a person of the Cold Star. In other words, if he did not betray all the people of the Cold Star, his spirit and body would actually belong to two gods — one was Chu Yunsheng, and the other was the god that might have lived in this Great God Mountain.
Chu Yunsheng didn't know if Xiao Mai understood what a contract was. The people of the Cold Star had always thought that it was some kind of tool to break through the limit. Only a few people, such as Hull, knew the truth from Aphro.
But his expression did not change too much, and the way he looked at Chu Yunsheng was different from the blind worship of ordinary people of the Cold Star. It was a kind of admiration for the strong.
In a sense, it was even more shocking than when he killed the tomb keeper. After all, except for Chu Yunsheng, no one had fought with the tomb keeper directly, and many people knew how powerful the Snow Star was. It had accumulated power in the new world for countless years. Even Ruan Luo couldn't achieve this kind of psychological pressure, and Xiao Mai was almost crushed to death by it.
Sitting in the tunnel car, Chu Yunsheng soon came to the place where he found the ice elemental core under the guidance of the first temple master.
At the bottom of the Great God Mountain, the position was about directly below the ancient palace. The entire mountain was empty, and it was covered with a yellow haze. The underground people's instruments also failed, so they could only roughly estimate the area of the entire space from the outer volume of the Great God Mountain.
In Huang Meng's world, there were a total of 12 huge earthen surfaces floating faintly, like a curved bridge across the space, arranged in an arc from far to near.
The surface was engraved with ancient runes, as if it was recording something important, but also like some kind of magic spell.
"The position of these earthen surfaces is not fixed, and their changes are irregular. At least we haven't found it yet." A scientist of the underground people was explaining to Chu Yunsheng. Those earthen surfaces seemed to have heard his words, and suddenly disappeared into the vast yellow mist.
A moment later, the twelve earth-colored floating surfaces appeared in his line of sight once more. They were still arranged in an arc-like bridge pattern, and only the outermost surface could be seen slightly clearly. The back was filled with a yellow mist, and it was faintly discernible.
Even without the scientist explaining, Chu Yunsheng could also find that their positions and order were obviously different from the last time. During the period of time when they disappeared, some strange changes had obviously taken place.
Chu Yunsheng frowned and asked, "Have you informed the Wunu people?"
The senior officer on the side looked around, but no one answered, and everyone was looking at him, so he had to bite the bullet and said, "not yet, I heard that Master Dian is very busy."
For some reason, Chu Yunsheng felt that the scene in front of him was a bit familiar. Hearing that they hadn't informed Dian yet, he couldn't get the analysis results from Dian for the time being, so he continued to say to the underground people, "continue."
The underground people scientist immediately showed a bunch of experimental images to everyone and explained, "at first, we sent soldiers to enter, but soon found that no matter how advanced the positioning equipment the soldiers carried, they would eventually completely lose their direction, and they couldn't enter the core area at all."
"Not only that, when they moved forward, the soldiers also felt a strong tearing force, but we also found that the soldiers of the Silver Legion did not feel this terrifying tearing force, so we speculated that the dark energy field in the yellow mist was very chaotic."
"After that, the experiments were carried out by ordinary earthlings, which greatly reduced the death rate. However, when one of the experimenters successfully reached the fifth layer where the earth-colored floating surface was located, he encountered a terrifying" creature "."
As he said, the underground people scientist called out an extremely short, unstable video. From the video, many floating monsters that had been extinct on the cold planet could be seen. At first glance, Chu Yunsheng didn't see it too clearly. He thought that the terrifying creature it was talking about was the floating monsters. It was estimated that the experimenter had never seen this kind of creature before, so he was hunted by the floating monsters in a hurry.
But the underground people scientist did not point at the floating monsters. Instead, he slowed down this extremely short video again, intercepted it to about the 13th second, and then used technical processing to filter out the clutter. In the flickering picture, in the yellow mist, the sound of the experimenter gasping could be heard, as if he had seen something terrifying.
At the 15th second, the picture was slowed down again, and the flickering was even more violent. In the hazy mist, finally, a "figure" could be vaguely seen.
At this time, the experimenter suddenly shouted, but it was not very clear. It was very noisy, and suddenly, he used his hand to scratch his neck trachea, as if he was trying to pull his head off his neck. The picture suddenly became bloody.
"We have thought of many ways to restore this sound." The underground people scientist had probably watched this video countless times, and he said very calmly.
As his fingers moved, in the noisy noise, a hoarse and horrible voice was restored: Where is my head?
Then, the picture jumped randomly, and the underground people scientist froze it for a moment. In the yellow mist, the "figure" appeared distorted and hideous. It was a figure without a head, as if it was saying: Where is my head?
