This was not good weather for Nimf.
"Nimf -sama … .why don't we go over there and take shelter?"
Seeing the little angel clenching her teeth and moving forward, Chakura Ryoko could not help but try to dissuade her. Although Fangzheng had always told Asakura Ryoko that Nimufu's combat strength was very weak, it was only now that Asakura Ryoko had a preliminary impression of it. Nimufu had just flown into the sky to carry out a search, and a few minutes later, she was blown down.
She was actually this weak. Ryoko was speechless.
"No, no need!"
Nimf pulled her head out of the snow and glared fiercely at the howling snowstorm.
"It's just that in this kind of weather, if I can modify it …."
As she spoke, Nimfu raised her hand. But before she could stand firm, the next moment, accompanied by a scream, Nimfu's entire body was blown away and then submerged in a pile of snow.
"Nimf -sama!!"
Seeing this, Asakura Ryoko hurried forward and pulled Nimufu out of the snow. If she had been any slower, the little angel would have been buried in the snow.
"I'll bring you there. Nimf -sama just needs to search."
Ryoko paused for a moment.
"Besides, Master isn't here. He won't know."
"Okay … .okay …."
Nimf was frustrated for a moment by Ryoko's answer, but she could only nod. Then, Asakura Ryoko carried Nimufu on her back. Her figure flashed, and she quickly crossed the snowy ground and flew forward.
The snow was getting heavier and heavier. The snowflakes mixed with the cold wind felt like they were being cut by a knife. But Ryoko did not care at all. She appeared and disappeared in the snowstorm like a ghost. If a third party saw her, they would only think that they were seeing things. From a third person's point of view, Ryoko Asakura's actions were as if she had just taken a step, and in the next moment, her entire body was like a 3D image that had been disrupted. She suddenly tilted and then reappeared hundreds of meters away.
Just like that, it didn't take long for the two of them to arrive at the abandoned frozen city. However, compared to the shock and panic of Professor Mike and the others, Nymoff and Ryoko Asakura obviously didn't care about such trivial matters like which era this city was created and who built it.
"Forward."
"Turn right."
"Keep going down."
"Turn left!"
Under Nimf's guidance, Ryoko Asakura quickly carried her into the depths of the city. Soon, the scene in front of them slowly changed. Traces of dragging appeared on the originally empty ground. From afar, they could even see a few black dots moving forward.
"Over there!"
Nimf's eyes widened and she instantly locked on to the target. In the dark underground passage, eight monsters that looked like a combination of a sea cucumber and a starfish were wriggling forward. They were also dragging the sled they took from the camp, and there were a lot of things on the sled ….
"Please leave it to me, Madam Nimf."
Ryoko Asakura put Nimf on the ground. With a tap of her toes, she appeared behind the last Ancient and stabbed the saber in her hand straight into its body.
Pfft!
The thick skin that could even ignore bullets could not stop Ryoko Asakura's saber. The sharp blade easily pierced through, and dark green blood sprayed out. The tentacles on the Ancient that were attacked immediately stood up. But before it could fight back, Ryoko Asakura swung her saber backhandedly and cut off the Ancient's starfish-like head.
Even an Ancient couldn't survive after its head was cut off. Soon, the headless corpse fell to the ground while blood sprayed everywhere. Ryoko Asakura chuckled and gripped the saber in her hand. She dashed towards her victim like a Killer Fiend.
Although the Ancients also launched a quick counterattack, it was a pity that they weren't facing the fragile Earthlings this time. Instead, they were facing alien creatures like them. Although they didn't know how powerful a civilization the Unified Consciousness Entity was, they were definitely much stronger than the Ancient before them.
Ryoko Asakura, who was created by them, was no exception.
She dodged the tentacles of the Ancient with graceful steps as if she was dancing in a ballroom. Then, she stabbed her saber again and pierced through the body of another prey. Like a bloodthirsty demon, she twisted her saber and let out an ear-piercing scream. Another Ancient became a dead soul under the saber of this elegant executioner with a charming smile on her face.
"Is this the death of an organic lifeform? I don't really have a concept of it. "
Ryoko Asakura swung the saber in her hand and grinned at the other Ancient. At this moment, the other Ancients' expressions changed drastically (although their expressions could not be seen) as they screamed and ran towards the depths of the passageway. Seeing this, Chakura Liangzi giggled and chased after them again.
But just as she turned the corner, Nymoff's scream suddenly came from behind her.
"Watch out!"
Hearing Nimufu's warning, Chakura Ryoko retracted her hand without hesitation. In the blink of an eye, a jelly-like object fell from the ceiling almost at the same time as Chakura Ryoko retreated. It brushed past her hair and fell heavily to the ground.
"What's this?"
Ryoko Asakura dodged the attack and looked at the enemy in front of her again. She could not help but be slightly surprised. In front of them was no longer the fusion of sea cucumbers and starfish. Instead, it was a huge gray lump of ooze. It kept moving, and its body did not seem to be fixed at all. From time to time, it would be squashed and deformed like soft dough. On the body of the ooze, countless eyes opened and closed. Tentacles spread out from every corner of its body and closed. Mouths appeared from within, shrieking and emitting a soul-stirring sound.
"Tekeli — Li!"
"This is another kind of lifeform that deviates information."
Nimf hurriedly retreated, and Ryoko Asakura returned to her side.
"Looks like the other party has come with ill intentions. Then …"
In an instant, Asakura Ryoko's mouth seemed to have sped up a hundred times. She opened and closed her mouth rapidly, and her voice swept across the area at a speed that was almost inaudible. As she chanted, countless sharp stone pillars shot out from all directions, piercing the huge Ooze Monster like a hedgehog in an instant.
But …
"Tekeli — Li!"
The monster did not die. Even though it was riddled with holes, it did not seem to be injured at all. It screamed and pounced on the prey in front of it again.
"This thing is really hard to deal with."
Asakura Ryoko picked up Nimufu and quickly leaped backward. At the same time, she took the time to look at the corner not far away. There, the other Ancients had been captured by the Ooze Monster's companion, and their heads were forcefully pulled out.
"Madame Nimf, the enemy is a little hard to deal with. Let's retreat first."
"Huh? But Master …. "
"The target prey has all been eaten by these monsters. We'll only bring more trouble if we stay here. Master's mission has been completed. As for these monsters, we'll ask Master for instructions before making a decision …."
"No need, I'm already here."
Before Ryoko Asakura could finish, she heard Fangzheng's voice behind her. The two turned around and saw Fangzheng walking over with a smile. He waved at them, and on his right hand ….
"Master, what's the matter with this … dog?"
Nimf blinked in confusion as she looked at the husky being dragged by Fangzheng.
"I can feel that its information residue doesn't seem to match its external appearance …."
"Hmm, I just finished it. I'll leave it to you to fix when we get back."
Fangzheng said while looking at the Ooze Monster in front of him.
"I didn't expect to meet Shugz after the Ancients. I'm really lucky …."
That's right, the Ooze Monster in front of them was none other than the slave created by the Ancients to serve them but eventually rebelled – Shugz.
The story of Shugz's rebellion was no different from the story of many robot AIs. They were first created by the Ancients as slaves and labourers. At first, Shugz only knew how to imitate them, but gradually, they developed intelligence and began to seek independence. The Ancients naturally suppressed them, but the suppression also failed.
The Ancients were really pitiful. First, they failed to defeat Cthulhu, so they had to go to the South Pole to paint a picture of themselves. Then, they were betrayed by Shugz, who they created. They fought a miserable civil war for hundreds of years, but in the end, they still did not win. What was even worse was that the Ice Age came after that. The Ancients who tried to escape from Earth found that their bodies had degenerated and could no longer travel through the universe ….
Damn it, if the heavens want you to die, you have to die.
So, it's not my fault for burning these guys.
Thinking of this, Fangzheng raised his right hand and gripped the black sword that he pulled out of the void. He turned his hand around and stabbed the black sword into the ground.
Unparalleled flames burst out in an instant, enveloping everything in front of him.
The plane roared up into the sky.
Professor Mike held the joystick in horror, while his assistant trembled and curled up in his chair, his face pale. What they saw just now almost caused them to have a nervous breakdown. Just the memory of those terrible things that should not exist in this world made them feel like their brains were on the verge of shattering.
However, at this moment, a low and deep sound suddenly rang out.
Professor Mike instinctively looked out of the window. Under his gaze, he saw the city that had been frozen for thousands of years begin to collapse. The mountains began to tremble, and the basin where the entire city was located kept shaking. Then, unparalleled thick smoke gushed out and rose straight into the sky.
Hot, bright red flames mixed with magma quickly erupted and engulfed everything in an instant.
