"I've not imagined that there's such a large underground karst cave in Paris …"
Xia Pingan was a little surprised as he walked in the middle of the thick moss belt that emitted a faint green light. Of course, what surprised him more was the plants he saw in this underground karst cave. These plants looked inexplicably familiar. Xia Pingan recognized a few of them. He seemed to have seen them in the Yuanqiu world. These plants were definitely not from Earth.
For example, those huge agaric mushrooms which were higher than a person and looked like pavilions.
There were also those weird blood-red grasses which grew on hard rocks.
The vitality of these strange plants that grew underground was unimaginably tenacious. It was as if they could grow as long as there was a little water, gravel, or even stone.
However, these underground plants had obvious traces of being gnawed. For instance, most of those huge agaric mushrooms had been gnawed and looked incomplete. Additionally, the moss belt which grew like weeds formed a sharp contrast between the newly grown moss and the gnawed moss.
"Watch out, this should be one of the underground nests of demon rats in Paris. These plants should be the underground granaries of those demon rats. Those demon rats that we met just now should rely on these plants to breed and grow …" Fang Lingyu warned them as she operated the camera equipment in her hand to record the scene in this underground space.
The others also felt it interesting as they watched it as they walked. Those slave soldiers who were holding radiation detectors were also scanning the surroundings with them, causing buzzing sounds.
"I've heard that those demon rats carried plant seeds and spores from different worlds. As long as some demon rats hide somewhere, especially underground, those plant seeds would grow and provide food for them. I've finally seen it today. It's another form of biological invasion …" Tu Polu sighed with emotion as he pushed a huge agaric mushroom which was taller than him as he observed it out of curiosity.
"Some of the spores and plant seeds from different worlds would stick to the fur of demon rats. Some of them would be excreted through the digestive organs of demon rats. Therefore, these space invaders would carry plant seeds from different worlds here. Last time, when we carried out a task in Africa, we saw a bizarre cactus in the desert of Africa. Those cactus were red and as large as a person. They could directly absorb water from the air and store it. They could also turn carbon dioxide into high-quality starch food. It's pretty weird for a desert to be covered with red cactus. Some local tribes even started to treat those cactus as food as a gift from the God …" Chen Zhangming sighed with emotion.
"If there were no demon rats, these things would look pretty weird. Perhaps we could build an underground amusement park. It would definitely make a lot of money …" Li Yunzhou said as he looked around.
The underground space here was covered with rocks and an underground river. As there was no path, they just moved forward and searched.
When they encountered obstacles, slopes, and huge rocks that were several meters high, they could easily climb over them.
In such a place, only summoners could search. Even the special forces of the military couldn't enter here. If ordinary cave exploration teams encountered magical creatures, they would probably be completely wiped out.
"Squeak squeak..." A demon rat shrieked as it suddenly rushed out of a nearby rock crevice. It widely opened its mouth and exposed its sharp teeth, intending to bite someone. However, before that demon rat approached it, a javelin had already shot towards it. With a shrill shriek, that demon rat was pinned to the ground. When that demon rat was still struggling, the elite slave soldier who had thrown the javelin had jumped over the rugged lava and some rocks and rushed to the side of that demon rat. Closely after that, he stabbed his long spear into the demon rat's head and split it into two halves.
The moving elite slave soldier was summoned by Xia Pingan. Its reaction and mobility were obviously much better than the other elite slave soldiers and warriors summoned by others. Everyone couldn't help but look at Xia Pingan.
"Tsk tsk, Mr. Luo An, how strong is the elite slave soldier that you summoned? How can it be so strong?" Li Yunzhou couldn't help but ask.
"No one will think you're a mute if you don't speak!" Fang Lingshan glared at Li Yunzhou.
Among summoners, it was taboo to inquire about the abilities and attributes of other people's summoned characters. Because these things were part of the secret mandala, they were also secrets and would reveal a lot of things.
Sometimes, Li Yunzhou could be so heartless.
Seeing Tu Polu also glaring at him, Li Yunzhou smiled embarrassedly and explained, "I'm just curious, that's all!"
"Nothing. I've fused with a very special realm bead before. That realm bead could enhance the battle strength of the elite slave soldier that I summoned …" Xia Pingan made up a reason.
That should be the case. Otherwise, the elite slave soldier summoned by Luo An would be too powerful.
"Ah, there's a realm bead on this demon rat …"
Coming to the side of that demon rat, Xia Pingan's elite slave soldier had already found a realm bead in its head. After wiping the realm bead clean on the demon rat's body, it handed it to Xia Pingan.
This realm bead flashed with the words "Suiren". It was a foundation-laying realm bead. Xia Pingan put away the demon rat's corpse and handed the realm bead to Li Yunzhou. These realm beads would be distributed after they returned.
Some subtle rustling sounds came from the crevices of the nearby rocks. As they approached, they saw a demon rat's nest in the crevice. There were seven or eight puppy-sized demon rats inside. Those demon rats should have just been born not long ago. When they saw people coming, they could already bare their teeth at them.
"They're all scourges …" Chen Zhangming raised his hand without thinking and a fireball flew out. In the blink of an eye, all the demon rats in the rat's nest were turned into ashes.
These demon rats would attack and eat people when they grew up. Therefore, although they were small now, they couldn't be left alive. There was no mercy when it came to invading demon beasts.
In this huge underground karst cave, they wandered around for five or six hours. Apart from some demon rats, sandworms and a nest of demon fire spiders, there was nothing else eye-catching in this karst cave. The radiation detector was all normal.
The demon rats, sandworms, and spiders that dared to show up were easily dealt with. However, there were still some demon rats and sandworms that burrowed into places that were difficult for people to enter through the holes they made. Because there was no way to burrow, everyone gave up.
Clearing out space invaders would be a protracted war on Earth in the future. Everyone's purpose today was to find nuclear materials. Some of the demon rats and sandworms that ran away could only be let go.
After coming out of this huge underground karst cave, everyone continued to search the underground tunnels and shelters for half a day. They searched all the suspicious places but still found nothing.
In the end, everyone could only bring the kidnapped Samuel back from the original path and return to the surface through the entrance of the underground tunnel.
Unknowingly, one night had passed.
Everyone stayed underground for about twenty hours. When they returned to the surface, the morning sun had just risen.
Except for Xia Pingan and Chen Zhangming, the creatures summoned by the others could not return to the secret mandala. They could only wander in the underground tunnel and wait for the plane's descent time to run out before dissipating on their own.
During this time, if someone accidentally entered the underground tunnel and encountered the summoned creatures that had yet to dissipate, there was no need to worry. This was because the summoned creatures' last order was to only kill the monsters and zombies they saw.
…
The convoy returned to the Committee of Order's stronghold in District 11. As soon as they returned, Samuel's identity was confirmed. He was a professor at the Munich Polytechnic University. Samuel was then taken away. Xia Pingan and the others came to a conference room to summarize and analyze the operation.
"Although we didn't find nuclear materials in this operation, we also gained a lot. One of the gains is that we confirmed the relationship between the Doomsday Gang and the Demon Eye. At the same time, we discovered the biochemical weapons and zombie viruses that the Doomsday Gang and the Demon Eye left underground in Paris. This is a warning to both our countries. At the same time, the Committee of Order and the Dragon Group's intelligence department are already analyzing the relevant information and things. We can trace some things back!"
Minister Yan gave a speech in the conference room. Everyone sat on both sides of the conference room table and listened.
Yesterday, everyone participated in the operation, and Minister Yan left Paris to meet with the heads of some French government departments to coordinate some resources and intelligence.
"The second gain of this operation is that we eliminated the places in Paris that are most likely to contain nuclear materials, further narrowing the scope of the search target! The third gain of this operation is that everyone eliminated a large number of space invaders, indirectly saving the lives of millions of people in Paris and preventing the city from being destroyed. We will inform the French government about some of the relevant details of the operation so that the French will owe us a big favor. This is all thanks to everyone. Okay, I know that everyone is tired after a day of operation, so I won't say much. Everyone is dismissed. You can distribute the spoils of this operation by yourselves! "
Minister Yan was very tactful. After the meeting, he took the initiative to leave.
Hearing that they could distribute the spoils of war, everyone in the room suddenly became energetic. The exhaustion of the night seemed to vanish in an instant.
All the Realm Beads were taken out and placed on the table. There were a total of twenty-six Realm Beads.
The Realm Beads flashed with a special brilliance, dazzling everyone's eyes. Even if they did not fuse with these Realm Beads, they were precious resources all over the world and could be exchanged for a lot of money …
