Pandora's mightiest terrestrial creatures, had actually perished in battle against the lowest tier arachnid army!! Such an immense contrast, couldn't help but cause one to sigh and wring one's wrist. …..
Instead, he commanded the zerglings to chew off the heads of Cherokee and the tier-7 legendary Thanator, before continuing their search! Take note of any abnormal movements!
Only when the two hour countdown timer began, did Sheyan raise the communication device in his hand; informing Mogensha and Reef who had already returned to the nightmare realm to teleport over. At present, Sheyan could be said to be doubly cautious, especially after experiencing the unexpected collapse of the tunnel. Thus, not only did Cherokee suffer the fate of having his head chewed off, even his mount couldn't escape such a fate!
Rays of brilliance flickered, as Mogensha and Reef who had been waiting for a long time also teleported back. This was because both of them possessed the activated GDS Point to Point Tracking System. Thus, they didn't enter the nightmare realm upon their return, but directly waited in the parallel realm where the rewards and evaluation of the world were calculated. The flow of time there was much faster compared to the nightmare realm. To them, 3 days was merely equivalent to 10 minutes.
After the trio met, they didn't have much time to exchange words. Instead, they cooperated extremely well with each other, nodding their heads in agreement as they tunneled into the secret tunnel excavated by the drones. Because this secret tunnel was corroded out by the corrosive acid of the arachnids, it appeared rather bizarre. Moreover, the fresh cave walls had distinct textures, resembling growth rings.
The bottom of the cave was rather humid, and a pungent acidic stench permeated the surroundings. As they passed by, it was rather choking. The deeper they ventured, the more humid it became. Towards the end, droplets of water could be seen seeping out from the surrounding rock walls.
Only a monotonous and mechanical dripping sound could be heard from an unknown location. However, in such an environment, people would definitely not associate it with the sound of water dripping. Instead, it was the sound of blood dripping down from a severed neck!
Although the drones had to avoid certain hard areas while excavating the secret tunnel, it was rather crooked. Nevertheless, it didn't seem too long for Sheyan and Reef to traverse. Roughly a minute later, they reached the end, and stepped onto the damp ground of the underground space. …..
The reason for such a humid environment wasn't considered strange. Even active volcanoes that would erupt once every few hundred or thousand years would form a lake, what more this obviously extinct volcano? Presumably, when it rained, the rainwater that fell onto the Windstone Highland would congregate through the cracks of the ground.
The terrain of their current location was somewhat similar to that of a swamp, but from time to time, they could see towering stone pillars as high as seventeen or eighteen meters, seemingly supporting the top plate. The stone pillars were also surrounded by thick vines that firmly gripped the pillars like tentacles. The vines even extended to a large area at the top. Sheyan even took the time to observe the top. He seemed to have discovered something, but did not say it out loud.
After entering the underground cavern, the surrounding terrain was rather complex. There was only a path freshly trampled by the zerglings. Naturally, there weren't any handrails on either side of the path, and the path was only half a foot wide. Hence, they had to tread carefully. Crunching sounds of muddy water and mud could be heard from the low-lying areas. Cold winds blew in all directions, causing one to feel rather gloomy and cold.
The party continued advancing under the guidance of the zerglings. After advancing for a hundred metres, they discovered massive black shadows growing in the swamp ahead. Upon closer inspection, they actually resembled seaweed and other aquatic plants. Their broad leaves intertwined with intertwining veins, as they stuck close to the ground and grew in a creeping manner. One could even faintly discern thick, white and plump aerial roots intertwining with each other beneath the mud.
In areas where these plants grew densely, their leaves intertwined with each other, and were as broad as banana leaves. Originally, the lighting here was rather dim. Observing these bizarre plants growing in the darkness, it was as though they were beasts harboring malicious intentions as they crept forward. It gave off a sinister and mysterious feeling.
At this moment, Sheyan finally understood why the Mosake clan wasn't afraid of drought. With such an incomparably humid underground cavern, fetching water should be a simple matter. Fortunately, it seemed like food was still a huge problem. Otherwise, it wouldn't lead to internal strife within the clan, leading to a collapse of analysis.
Previously, through the diligent exploration of those zerglings, they had roughly grasped the general situation below. Nevertheless, there was still a considerable disparity between what one imagined and the reality.
One must understand, the pyramid constructed by the Mosake clan was originally a colossal structure of over a hundred metres in length, width and height. Yet, it was like a lid that covered the entrance. One could imagine the vastness and vastness of this underground cavern. Even so, with the zerglings leading the way, they still trekked for over 10 minutes before finally nearing the core of this cavern.
As they ventured deeper into the heart of this cavern, the path gradually extended downwards. If the previous entrance was at the edge of the volcanic crater, then now they should be nearing the most sunken part of the volcanic crater. Presently, when they raised their heads and illuminated the surface with a lantern, they could see that the surface plate was at least 200-300 metres above the ground. However, it seemed like the ceiling was still crawling with those tentacle-like dark green plants.
As they ventured deeper into this underground cavern, they could sense that this place wasn't completely in its original state. Instead, it should've been developed by highly intelligent creatures. Traces of man-made construction could be seen everywhere. From time to time, it was filled with withered and dilapidated pillars, exquisite sculptures, and broken walls. All of them were paintings of ferocious and ferocious creatures in the water. They seemed to be worshipping something, and a large number of puppet slaves were carrying something.
All of a sudden, a vast expanse of darkness appeared ahead. Within the boundless darkness, it carried a deep sense of melancholy, as though it was coldly observing this world where the strong preyed on the weak, where survival was arduous. In his ears, he could even faintly hear the roar of the ocean tides!
Sheyan carefully focused his gaze, and instantly noticed a vague and incomparably solemn object entrenched there. It looked like a majestic mountain range, and exuded a sense of reverence.
As he neared, he could vaguely see a lump of black silhouette towering like a steamed bun. It towered in its original location, reaching a height of 50-60 metres. Its circumference was exceedingly vast, occupying at least half the surface area of this cavern. For some reason, Sheyan felt dizzy as soon as he saw that colossal creature. An incomparably vicious and evil aura assaulted his senses, as well as a strong fishy smell of the sea, causing Sheyan to almost fall down.
Gazing at the incomparably dense darkness ahead, Sheyan's heart instantly shivered! Just based on the size of this creature, it could trample over hundreds of zerglings with a single stomp! If it was a sea of arachnids, it would probably be a long and drawn-out war! If such a colossal monster were to emerge here, then the Golden Side Mission would probably fail.
Fortunately, Sheyan's perceptive sensing was relatively good. Very quickly, he sensed that although this colossal black silhouette exuded a majestic aura, it lacked an intense vitality. It was like the difference between a majestic imperial tomb and a bustling metropolis. Evidently, it had been dead for a long time. But thinking about it again, this creature that had been dead for a long time actually possessed such might. If it was still alive, what kind of spectacle would it be?
Very quickly, a pungent stench drifted in from ahead. This stench was extremely familiar to the trio, especially Reef and himself. It was the stench of a dead zergling. Because there wasn't any arachnid 'Creep' to dissolve the corpses, the corpses piled up densely together. It was an exceptionally spectacular sight of blood and tragedy.
At this moment, Mcdh retrieved a flare gun, and fired a shot into the sky. Instantly, a dazzling radiance skyrocketed into the sky; it was probably a flare of sorts. Moreover, when the radiance reached a height of a hundred metres, it hovered in the air like a light bulb, illuminating the area. Although it couldn't illuminate the surroundings to the finest detail, it was still enough to illuminate a cloudy day.
Instantly, Sheyan sucked in a breath of cold air. He could finally clearly see the silhouette of that colossal black silhouette. That silhouette was shockingly an incomparably colossal conch!
This gigantic conch towered like a mountain range. On the surface of the conch's shell, there were actually eye shaped veins that curled up along the conch's shell. It was like countless demonic eyes were coldly gazing at them.
However, who knew how long this gigantic conch had been dead for, its flesh had definitely rotted away. Only a gigantic conch shell was left standing upright on the ground. Beneath the soil, a large portion of the shell's remains should still be buried.
Right in front of this gigantic conch, was the battlefield of an exceedingly desperate battle!
The Na 'vi's mightiest ground hunter was facing off against the lowest ranking arachnid army. The former's ferocious might overflowed the heavens, as though it wanted to engulf the heavens and earth. The latter, however, was unafraid of death as it advanced one after another, finally exhausting the arachnid to death …... what kind of desperate battle was that?!
Yet at present, Sheyan couldn't be bothered to consider so much. His gaze was shockingly fixated on Chieftain Cherokee's grimacing head. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
