"This … This is impossible!"
Li Yao watched helplessly as the tentacles that surged out of the Pangu warrior's body wrapped around his limbs and torso. Furthermore, after a series of disgusting squirms, the tentacles continued to expand, turning into new muscles and things that resembled nerves and blood vessels. It caused his body to expand continuously until it expanded seven to eight times its original size, turning into a ferocious beast that was forty to fifty meters tall!
So that was the case. All the ferocious beasts that had besieged the City of Silver had mutated from the Pangu, Nuwa, or other carbon-based intelligent races of the Pangu civilization.
However, such a mutation was too shocking. From a height of more than ten meters to more than a hundred meters, their mass had increased by at least a thousand tons, or even nearly ten thousand tons. Where did such a massive mass come from in such a short period of time?
That's right, energy could indeed be converted into mass, but there was a limit and a source. Could it be that these ferocious beasts had miniature wormholes hidden in their bodies that allowed them to obtain energy from a mysterious unknown space?
No matter how much Li Yao doubted it, the truth was right in front of him. These ferocious beasts definitely possessed some kind of inconceivable "mass-energy conversion divine ability." That was how they were able to complete the fall from civilization to barbarism in a matter of seconds!
"Roar! Roar! Roar!
Roar! Roar! "The ferocious beasts that had completed their mutation let out deafening roars as they brandished their monstrous tails that were covered in thorns and bone spikes. They swung them at their former comrades, sending several Pangu warriors flying and crashing into the skyscrapers.
Even more ferocious beasts swarmed in through the breach, and the silver guards were instantly routed.
Dragging such heavy and clumsy bodies consumed a lot of energy and placed a heavy burden on the body. Therefore, many ferocious beasts would often collapse as they fought, just like the dinosaurs and wild Pangu that Li Yao had seen outside.
However, even more guards were corroded by the fog, turning into new ferocious beasts.
This was destined to be a hopeless defensive battle. The only thing the guards could do was stall for time, allowing the City of Silver to last a little longer under the assault of the beast horde. However, they would also be ravaged even more miserably.
The skyscrapers that were thousands of meters tall collapsed one after another. The dust and smoke mixed together like a surging tide in a tsunami. The spiritual energy transmission tubes buried below the streets were all broken, and the highly-compressed spiritual energy spurting out was released rapidly, turning into shocking flames. The ferocious beasts looked particularly hideous and enormous under the contrast of the mist and the flames. Their every roar and stomp seemed to be bombarding Li Yao's brain cells brutally. He was like a nightmare that he could never wake up from, and he did not know how to break free.
"The skyscrapers in the City of Silver are generally more than a thousand meters tall. From the size of the doors and windows, they weren't prepared for humans, but for giants more than ten meters tall. Therefore, this isn't a city of humans or the black-wall creators, but a city of the Pangu civilization.
"Why did the Pangu civilization build such a glorious city in the depths of the tomb? As far as the eye could see, there was no end to the city. It was like an endless city of the future. How many people could it hold? Or could it hold all the elites of the Pangu civilization alliance?
"What's with the ferocious beasts attacking the City of Silver? Fuxi and Long Yangjun both said that a terrifying genetic virus went out of control and mutated, destroying the Pangu civilization and the entire Primordial World. Could this be the effect of the mutated virus?
"But that doesn't make sense. If the City of Silver is a laboratory set up by the Pangu civilization in the depths of the tomb, and some virus that is being experimented on here has gone out of control. The chaos should have erupted from the inside, but these ferocious beasts are clearly advancing from the outside. They are enemies from the outside. Who are they that is attacking the cutting-edge laboratory of the Pangu civilization?"
Huge question marks surfaced in Li Yao's mind.
Suddenly, his heart tightened, and he could not help but cry out.
"Ding Ling Dong!"
Yes. His eyes were not deceiving him, nor was he mentally deranged. Li Yao discovered his wife, Ding Ling Dong, in a vivid, immersive picture!
Ding Ling Dong had been caught in the middle of the City of Silver where the flames of war were soaring to the sky and beasts were rampant!
She was riding on Draconic Phoenix, which was almost thirty meters tall, but she was still as tiny and weak as a doll in front of the beasts that were almost a hundred meters tall. She could only roll and crawl among the broken walls under the cover of the smoke and dust, avoiding the death rays of the Pangu people and the stomps of the ferocious beasts.
After Ding Ling Dong showed up, more human experts showed up in the other pictures, too. Li Yao found Li Jialing, Li Linghai, Long Yangjun, and Boss Bai. They were all struggling hard in the overwhelming flames raised by the collisions of the Pangu people, the Nuwa Clan, and the ferocious beasts, like little animals that were fleeing in panic when two dinosaurs collided brutally.
Li Yao had thought that the battle of the City of Silver took place at the end of the primeval era hundreds of thousands of years ago. The war was already over, and the broken walls of the City of Silver might've decayed a long time ago, except that they had been recorded by special magical equipment and played for the latecomers. In many primeval relics, such a holographic video similar to the Grand Illusionary Land was a very common setup.
However, after witnessing an expert of the human race being stomped into meat paste together with his Crystal Suit by a ferocious beast that was almost a hundred meters tall and looked like a hybrid of a tortoise and a gorilla, Li Yao had to change his opinion.
Everything in front of his eyes was real.
The battle of the City of Silver was still going on. At this moment, in this place, most of the human experts had been involved in it uncannily. They were all in peril!
"Ding Ling Dong! Ding Ling Dong! Ding Ling Dong! "
Li Yao's eyes were bloodshot as he roared hysterically, wishing that he could throw the communication magical equipment directly at the picture.
Ding Ling Dong in the picture did not notice his arrival at all. She was still moving in the middle of the debris, looking for a chance of survival.
"I'm here. I'm here to save you!"
Li Yao activated the power unit of the Crystal Suit without caring about anything and tried to crawl into the picture where Ding Ling Dong was. However, even though he was moving at the maximum speed, the distance between him and the picture did not decrease at all. No matter how hard he tried to reach out, he could not touch even a shadow of Ding Ling Dong.
It was as if — as if Ding Ling Dong and everyone else were "sealed" in a 3D picture. Even if Li Yao could see and touch it, there was no way he could crawl into it.
Was this what the saying, "Heaven and man are separated, and man and ghost walk different paths" meant?
Where exactly were Ding Ling Dong and the rest of them? What kind of state were they in?!
Li Yao's anxiety and fury were almost bursting the Crystal Suit apart.
However, all the pictures around were spinning quickly, making him lose the coordinates of Ding Ling Dong all of a sudden. He was like a boat riddled with holes that had fallen into an enormous space swirl and could only drift along with the current until he was brought to a random space fold.
No. Maybe it was not random.
"Jiji. Jiji!"
Little Black shrieked.
Considering that Little Black was from the Supreme Emperor's mausoleum in the first place and that it might have natural senses about the environment here, Li Yao did not recall Little Black into his Cosmos Ring when he entered the black gap. Instead, he asked it to change its shape and hide inside the Cosmos Ring.
Just now, Little Black had been silent the whole time, as if it were resisting the enormous pressure just like Li Yao did.
At this moment, Little Black suddenly shrieked in excitement. It even leaked out of the gaps of the Crystal Suit voluntarily and covered the entire Crystal Suit, forming four helical wings on the back of the Crystal Suit.
When the last gap of the Crystal Suit was filled by Little Black, Li Yao suddenly gained the ability to move. He seemed to be able to move freely among the space folds!
"Little Black …"
Before Li Yao had the chance to be surprised by the brand-new technique that Little Black presented, he was deeply attracted by the Colossus in the picture before his eyes.
It was —
"The Savior!"
Li Yao gnashed his teeth, his eyes bloodshot.
Yes. He could recognize it even if it turned into ash. The gold Colossus in the picture before his eyes was the special Colossus of the super artificial intelligence that Fuxi had prepared for himself but later stolen by Lu Qingchen. It was the 'Savior' that did not have a cockpit!
When enemies met, they could not be more furious.
Everything was caused by Lu Qingchen. Had he not been insane enough to risk universal condemnation, Li Yao and the rest of them would not have launched the exploration operation of the primordial mausoleum in such a hurry that even Ding Ling Dong was lost.
If Ding Ling Dong, Long Yangjun, Li Linghai, and the other experts of human beings were all killed here, and the terrifying ferocious beasts broke out of the Supreme Emperor's mausoleum and spread out to the entire Pangu universe, Lu Qingchen would be the culprit that destroyed the civilization of mankind!
Li Yao felt that it was his responsibility that he failed to capture Lu Qingchen in the battle of 'Ultimate Salvation' last time.
But this time, he would not make the same mistake again!
Li Yao's telepathic thoughts flashed above countless pictures quickly, but he could not find any trace of Ding Ling Dong at all.
In that case, let's complete the mission first. We'll capture Lu Qingchen and interrogate him, lest this lawless guy causes more trouble. "
Behind Li Yao's Crystal Suit, the black wings condensed by Little Black flapped brutally, raising black ripples as he flew toward the picture where Lu Qingchen was.
Lu Qingchen in the picture was also in a mess. He was fleeing here and there in the overwhelming tide of ferocious beasts. His previously magnificent Colossus was now riddled with holes and covered in dust. The dignity of a 'Fuxi' could not be seen at all. He did not have any companions behind him, either. He was caught in the dilemma of being alone again.
Li Yao sniffed. After realizing how crazy Lu Qingchen was exactly, he did not care about the guy's life anymore.
