Bastet metal was CANC's most outstanding containment tool.
It could be controlled with thought, was indestructible, and safe.
This was one of the best anomalies that the heavens had given to humans. It was also an anomaly that CANC had obtained in the early days. It was because of it that they had developed step by step, snowballing and containing more anomalies.
However, the threshold to control it was extremely high. Only one in ten thousand could use it.
For humans like Adams, the limit of Bastet metal's control was 15 meters.
Normal super mecha warriors could only control it from five to eight meters.
This was already very impressive. Many police officers only had an effective range of 10 meters with firearms.
However, against a creature like the Sun Frog that had a range of 10 meters and a high temperature of 100 meters, Bastet metal was useless.
Bastet Metal wasn't that useful anymore. Adams tried his best to trap the Sun Frog, but failed in the end.
Unless, in this world, there was someone who could use Bastet metal to a range of hundreds of meters.
Lan Mu happened to be one of them …
"My soul is much stronger than humans. This Bastet metal is the most suitable weapon for me!"
"What they can't do … I can!"
With a thought from Lan Mu, the Bastet metal turned into a pot lid-like cover and flew directly towards the Sun Frog.
Its flying speed was not very fast, but it was enough to make it difficult for the Sun Frog to dodge.
"That's our Bastet metal!"
The people in the building who were watching the battle exclaimed. The super mecha warriors had complicated expressions. They could only watch as the Flood Dragon used their treasure to contain the Sun Frog.
"It definitely has intelligence! It has already thought of using Bastet metal. "
"Look! The Bastet metal is already 200 meters away from the body! "
"It's still flying! This control distance is enough to contain the Sun Frog! "
The Sun Frog swam freely without feeling anything. The flames were raging, but it did not care about the rapidly approaching 'pot lid'.
The Bastet metal covered the Sun Frog with a whoosh. It quickly changed shape and directly covered the Sun Frog, forming a sphere.
Although there were still traces of flames, the high heat dissipated, boiling and vaporizing the seawater.
However, Lan Mu smiled. He had easily and successfully captured the Sun Frog.
"It really succeeded! Isn't this a containment sphere! "
"A containment sphere with 40 kilograms of Bastet metal … too extravagant!"
The super mech warriors were both happy and depressed. Their crisis had been resolved by an anomaly using Bastet's metal. This did not seem to be worth their joy.
Lan Mu swam over. Although he was in the water, he could still feel the astonishing heat emitted by the containment orb.
The last piece of Bast metal that Adams had used floated beside Lan Mu. Including this, Lan Mu had nine pieces of Bast metal.
"What do we do with this thing now?"
"Do I have to leave a portion of Bastet Metal here?"
"Fine, let's deal with the alien energy first."
Lan Mu allowed the seawater to flood the island as he wriggled towards the center of the island.
With Bastet's metal, he didn't need to wait for the next time. He could directly take the oak tree away!
On the way, his spiritual power found another piece of Bastet metal. Thinking back, when the Sun Frog vaporized the helicopter, it seemed that a super mech warrior had sacrificed himself and left behind this piece.
"Ten yuan! The total is fifty kilograms! "
"Eh? Since it was indestructible, it meant that it was extremely dense! Why is it so light? "
Lan Mu was puzzled. In the end, he could only attribute it to the uniqueness of anomalies.
In any case, every anomaly in the world was unscientific. Even if Bastet's metal was perfect and harmless, it was still an unscientific existence.
In the center of the island, in the barren area.
About a kilometer away from the barren mountain, Lan Mu immediately stopped.
He didn't dare to get close. Each anomaly was powerful. If he was instantly killed, it would be too unjust.
"This is a good opportunity to test the limits of my control!"
With this thought, Lan Mu peeled off nine pieces of Bastet's metal from the containment orb.
He was very careful, always keeping one piece wrapped around the Sun Frog.
Relying on his high spiritual power, he was much more careful than Adams and the others. He perfectly sealed the Sun Frog, and not a single bit of heat leaked out.
"This should be absolute isolation, right?"
After completely dealing with the Sun Frog, the remaining Bastet's metal turned into a giant pick and flew towards the oak tree.
Not long after, the pick crossed a kilometer distance and smashed into the barren mountain.
Many pieces of rock flew out. Lan Mu sighed in relief. This meant that although the barren mountain was an anomaly, it was not indestructible.
"Clang clang clang!"
Lan Mu controlled the pick to smash the rocks, trying to dig out the oak tree by its roots.
Rocks flew everywhere, and the sound of crackling was endless.
After about twenty minutes of digging, Lan Mu found that the oak tree was deeply rooted. He hurriedly split the pick into many small chisels and shovels.
After another round of banging, the barren mountain was completely destroyed, and a large pile of rocks was scattered on the ground.
As long as there were no creatures within a kilometer, the mountain was just like a normal mountain, and Lan Mu could destroy it freely.
…
"Dr. Kenner, that flood dragon is destroying the Eye of Obliteration!"
"Can we stop it?"
"It seems like it wants to take away the tree! Why? "
The people trapped in the building communicated through the device.
They knew that barren mountains could be destroyed, but this kind of abnormal area was like a natural containment orb. Plus, the Eye of Obliteration's characteristics had a miraculous effect on killing abnormal creatures, so they had always kept it here.
As for the oak tree, as the only creature in the barren area, they had thought that the miraculous power of Eden's water came from that tree, but this conjecture was still under research and had not been confirmed.
A tree that they didn't even know if it was useful or not had attracted a flood dragon to go to great lengths to obtain it.
They had already realized that the flood dragon seemed to have suddenly broken into the Lost Island because of this tree.
The flood dragon drank the Eden River dry and wanted to take away the oak tree. It was obvious that the unknown energy in the Eden River came from that tree.
"That energy should be very useful to the flood dragon, right?"
"There are also some weapon systems that can be used … How about we harass it and delay it?"
Everyone was busy. They couldn't just do nothing. Although the flood dragon helped them deal with the Sun Frog, an anomaly was still an anomaly. It had to be controlled!
"When will the backup from headquarters arrive?"
"Probably … a few more minutes?"
…
"Done!"
The entire oak tree was uprooted by Lan Mu. The Bastet metal turned into two large hands and returned to Lan Mu's side with the oak tree.
"Boom boom boom!"
Missiles again, this time not only bombarded him, but also the oak tree.
"How annoying!"
Lan Mu was willing to be injured by the explosion to control the Bastet metal to protect the oak tree.
He was angry that the group had attacked him at this time, but they were on opposing sides, so there was nothing to say. He was now completely focused on the oak tree.
With the protection of the Bastet metal, the missiles couldn't do anything. However, the powerful impact of the explosion was constantly preventing the Bastet metal from flying back.
Lan Mu skillfully controlled the Bastet metal to intercept in advance. His spiritual power combined with psychokinesis was simply unstoppable!
As the oak tree approached, the life sphere's reaction became more and more obvious.
When he bit the oak tree, the life sphere spun wildly, absorbing the alien energy.
"What a huge amount!"
Lan Mu was overjoyed. But at that moment, a red object came flying from the horizon. It tore through the sky at an extremely fast speed.
"What is that?"
Lan Mu had just noticed it and instinctively felt great danger. He couldn't care less and immediately used the Bastet metal to block it.
In the nick of time, the red object smashed into the Bastet metal, creating a terrifying driving force.
The Bastet metal was rebounded by the impact and brushed past Lan Mu's body, bringing with it a large piece of flesh and black scales. It smashed into the ground with a loud bang.
"Boom!"
Dust rose into the air. The Bastet metal smashed a huge hole in the ground and kept rolling until it landed hundreds of meters away.
"Roar!"
Lan Mu had only been hit by the shockwave and was already injured. Only now did he see clearly what had injured him.
A solid metal bullet.
This was a metal bullet that had been shot at high speed. Its powerful kinetic energy was the source of its power.
"Is it reinforcements? What a big plane! "
Lan Mu saw a huge fighter jet flying over from the distance, roaring in the sky. It looked bigger than any passenger plane in the world.
"There's no time to slowly absorb the energy. Retreat first!"
"Gulp!"
Lan Mu hurriedly swallowed the entire oak tree. His body was huge, and he didn't even feel any discomfort after swallowing it.
"Come back!"
The Bastet metal followed his will and flew back with a whoosh.
Lan Mu took advantage of the fact that the enemy hadn't completely arrived and rushed into the sea.
Half of the island was submerged in the sea. He dove in and immediately sped up.
As long as he entered the sea, the vast Pacific Ocean would be the perfect hiding place for him.
"Hmph, since there's reinforcements, I'll return this frog to you!"
Lan Mu was injured and had been moving vigorously in the sea. He was angry, and his mind controlled the containment ball to fly high into the sky.
"Tch, if you have the guts, go ahead and contain it yourselves!"
The Sun Frog was thrown out. The Bastet metal turned into a shuttle and sank into the sea, being recalled by Lan Mu.
Blazing flames reappeared, and large clouds of white gas rose. The sea water boiled in the blink of an eye.
Lan Mu quickly swam away and escaped from the Lost Island.
…
The Sun Frog on the Lost Island was thrown into the air and falling.
Most of the seawater that had washed ashore had evaporated, and a small part of it had returned to the sea.
However, the Sun Frog wasn't able to wreak havoc for long. As soon as it saw the light of day again, the huge plane decisively launched a strange bomb.
The bomb exploded below the Sun Frog, and a vertical spray of gas shot the Sun Frog into the sky.
Then the plane accurately stopped below it, as if it had calculated the falling position, and opened a Bastet metal hemisphere above it.
The Sun Frog fell in and closed. Everything was done with precision.
Although the plane's alloy material had top-notch resistance to heat and pressure, it still couldn't withstand the Sun Frog's abnormally high temperature.
The plane took advantage of the fact that only a few percent of the outer wall had been damaged to immediately fly near the barren area.
With a throw, the containment ball landed in front of the barren mountain with the Sun Frog.
A pair of dark, empty eyes appeared on the mountain out of thin air. The Bastet metal was dead silent, and there were no signs of life inside.
"Beta-955 has been destroyed. Containment ball retrieved."
The plane took back the Bastet metal and rose into the sky, as if about to leave. Before it left, it sent a message to the containment base that had already emerged from the sea.
"The Flood Dragon-type anomaly has escaped. Information recorded. Serial number Beta-968."
"The rescue ship will arrive in forty minutes. Order the E3 super mobile battle team to return to headquarters after the Lost Island is rebuilt."
After sending this message, the plane instantly pierced through the sky, breaking through the clouds and disappearing from sight.
"They left just like that?" A researcher who didn't seem to know the origin of the plane asked.
Dr. Kenna said slowly, "This is one of the forces guarding the deep sea prison, the Tempest Keep. Compared to the Lost Island, the deep sea prison is a few hundred times more important. They can't leave their posts for more than four hours. "
The containment base fell into silence. The crisis had been resolved, but the members of the super mobile battle team were like dead bodies.
The entire Lost Island was in ruins, and many of the large beasts were extinct.
There would be a long period of recovery and reconstruction work.
This wasn't difficult. With the organization's manpower and resources, the reconstruction work would take less than a month.
But losing a large amount of Bastet metal was a great sin for a super mobile battle team.
Returning to headquarters, what awaited them was a trial.
[p.s.: Recommend a book, "The Concentration of Gods". It's very funny, a rare and conscientious comedy. I'm reading it myself, and it's hilarious. Definitely conscientious recommendation!]
