Returning from the abyss

Chapter 557 Tunguska Shelling

The beam of light—that is, the space bridge actually blurs the distance between the surroundings and Tianmuyi. With this beam of light, you can directly cross the space and reach Tianmuyi in an instant.

But at the same time, as long as it is space, it will inevitably be interfered by the imaginary defense, so there is no way to guarantee the specific landing location.Fortunately, the gravitational pull of Tianmuyi was weak, and with the aid of jetpacks and other equipment, Lu Ning and others landed without any danger.

This is a small mountain piled up by gravel, standing alone on a gravel wilderness.The mottled cracks on the ground appear as a network that seems to spread to the end of the horizon. The lifeless scenery always makes people feel a little bit unmotivated.

However, in the interstellar era, people have more or less contact with such scenes.And people who often conduct interstellar exploration are even more accustomed to such scenes. After all, living planets like phantom stars are the real "heterogeneous" in the universe.

"The life signal cannot be scanned, and it seems that the team that came before has also concealed." Bayonet reported.

"Normal, even if they all come here, people are not of one mind. I have already told you, right? Not only must beware of the No. 1 outpost, but those 'insiders' must also pay attention."

"Captain, two satellites were found in the sky. They were not intentionally concealed, but according to their pattern, they should both be aggressive." Blue Bird also reported.

"Calculate their running route, and try to stay away from the attack angle. Those biomechanical soldiers don't feel tired, and they don't need to consider their feelings." Lu Ning waved his hand.

Even after accepting Mo Ningyan's gift, she didn't think about what to do with two teams of [-] troops.One is that she herself is not the direction of war command. Even if she has the memory of the original Lu Ning, she may not be able to gain any benefits on the battlefield where every second counts.The second is of course that she doesn't believe that Mo Ningyan didn't leave any back door for these soldiers.She can check the weapons and equipment at any time, and it will not be easy for these soldiers to rebel in battle.

"Underground...a hole was found, but the details are still unclear." Spade's investigation report also came back.

"Then let's go down as soon as possible." Hearing this, Lu Ning raised her hand and gathered a material distortion ball, opening a hole according to the position marked by the spade.

"Aren't you going to cover it up?" Spider Silk asked.

"No need, everyone knows that people are constantly coming to Tianmuyi. Even if the No. 1 outpost wants to attack in advance, they have to establish the entire Tianmuyi observation network. But now the reaction speed is either slow or not at all. Ability to observe."

With a wave of Lu Ning's hand, the team members jumped down into the pothole one after another.

The wilderness formed by the gravel is the upper layer of the surface. A little deeper can still see thick sedimentary rock layers. Soon everyone slipped into the underground pit detected by Spade.This place is actually a karst cave, and the water vapor component is very heavy. It is also because the atmosphere is thin when the Tianmu is up, and even now the content has exceeded 50.00%.

It is not particularly rare to find water. What is rare is that the water here can still maintain liquid and gaseous states.On a planet without the insulating effect of the atmosphere, the large temperature difference between day and night can be called harsh. The gaseous water on the sunny side will escape quickly, while the shady side is absolutely frozen ice. The temperature condition of Tianmuyi is completely satisfactory.

Yes, walking a few hundred meters along the cave, everyone saw a small stream.Although it is called a small stream, the current is actually no more than two wrists thick, but it is already a spectacle here.

"How deep is it from the surface?" Mo Lian asked.

Immediately behind him, a team member replied: "We have descended to a depth of about 60 meters. This can only be regarded as a shallow layer, and the distance from the surface is no more than 70 meters."

"It's nighttime on this side." Lu Ning said, looking at the temperature reading, "It's true...the temperature here is around four degrees Celsius, which is not normal. The surface temperature recorded before was close to minus ninety degrees, and it was so short The distance, the temperature difference changes so much..."

Bayonet has placed a probe into the stream, which is used to look for microbes and large particles.In the case of finding running water, it is inevitable to do this kind of exploration, and the result is obvious.

"There are a small amount of microorganisms in the water body, which can probably assume the role of natural decomposers. In addition, many large particles of iron compounds and nitrates were found." Bayonet said quickly, and then measured the surrounding rocks, The rocks turned out to be normal calcareous and siliceous, with no metallic deposits nearby.

"Is there a mine vein nearby? Or...is there a production plant nearby?" Lu Ning didn't quite believe that she was so lucky to find the trace of the No. 1 outpost, or she didn't believe that the No. 1 outpost would leave such a trace. An easy-to-find bug.

"It's also possible that the team that came here before has also set up a stronghold underground." Mo Lianren said, "We can't go there easily."

"Easy, Josh, where's the drone?"

For this trip, Lu Ning released the production line for Qiu Shu. The drone support for land combat is far more reliable than Mo Ningyan's biomechanical army.This also caused Qiu Shu to be covered with drone equipment slots except for a gun, and others had to share some of it for him.

"Captain, I suggest to be more straightforward here." Qiu Shu said with a smile, "In such an underground environment, if we use drones to investigate and get shot down, we will be held accountable. It's better to just pretend not to know."

Lu Ning thought for a while, then nodded: "Okay, don't worry about what's over there, dig the ground wide, at worst we can dig a stronghold for ourselves."

Four round-headed and round-headed drones rose from Qiu Shu's body and approached the rock wall in front. The red rays shot out from the movable muzzle at the lower end, quickly cutting conical stones on the rock formation.This is a digging drone, which was used in the mining industry at a certain period in history, but it was banned after many accidents that cut miners open, but the military used it in some war situations.

Dangerous, but effective.The drone dug the cave in front of it more than 5 meters in 20 minutes, and even destroyed a stone wall blocking the stream. The water flow has increased a lot now. The bayonet measured again and found that the proportion of iron compounds inside has increased.

Everyone is going upstream, which means that they are gradually approaching the source area.As they continued to dig forward, more feedback appeared on the detector, and at the same time as there was a click in front, flames suddenly appeared in the cracks in the rock.

A huge red spot suddenly appeared in everyone's energy detection, it was a warning, an ultra-high-energy creature.

"No! Behind this is—"

Before Lu Ning finished speaking, the flames rushed through the already fragile rock formations. Qiu Shu swiftly retracted the flame drone, and someone shot from behind, four freezing grenades exploded on the wall, and the rocks once again exploded. Cracks appeared, but they were instantly frozen by the cold mist and water vapor.

"Trap." Mo Lian raised his hand calmly, "Everyone retreated, and the energy reaction appeared very suddenly. It may be a phantom beast that has adapted to our detection method. The level is tentatively set to B."

"The ice is going to be unbearable!" The bayonet was loaded with a second grenade, and she had been paying attention to the state of the rock wall. After a few seconds, the ice layer showed signs of melting, and the heat penetrated into this side of the rock again. , the cold can't stop it.

"At least we know why it's so warm here, right?" Spade added a grenade to freeze the rock formation again, "B-level is not so easy to break through the attack of environmental modification weapons!"

"You want to say that this is an A-level Eudemons? Then how can it have the ability to avoid detection? The energy on them is like lights in the dark!" Kong Gu shouted, "Unless the corresponding evolution is carried out! However, A The genes of super Eudemons are the most stable and difficult to change..."

"They may have evolved." Lu Ning stepped back while paying attention to the surrounding situation. "Outpost No. 1 knew us well. It can even be said that they had already prepared for this when they moved to Tianmuyi."

"They have the ability to breed A-level Eudemons?" Zhusi cried out.

"As long as there is time and targeted guidance...Of course, this is just speculation. But I don't know about Pang Xu, I only know that he is a genius, and geniuses can easily do some appalling things." Lu Ning raised her hand, material distortion The bullet is fully charged, "For example, use a large number of A-level phantom beasts and illusions to set natural traps."

The inconspicuous sphere floated towards the wall, and the moment it touched the ice, the ice was drawn in. Naturally, the Eudemons behind would not miss this opportunity, and immediately crashed into the gap in the wall, and also crashed into the distorted space. Flick on.

The flames were also instantly drawn into the twisted vortex, but this phantom beast was obviously different from those creatures that were easily strangled. The deformation effect of the twisted bullet on matter only cut off one of its limbs, and counting this One, it has twelve limbs.

This is very similar to a burning spider, except that its body is not like a spider, but irregular stone-shaped, with three mouthparts and three tentacles protruding from the front of the body, without eyes, but clearly He knew the direction of Lu Ning and the others.

The good news is that the energy feedback has not jumped to the area of ​​the A-level phantom beast, but the bad news is that there is another fire behind this phantom beast.

"I never heard that spiders live in groups!" Spades screamed.

"That's because you haven't seen it! And it's not a spider!" Spider Silk yelled angrily, "Captain! The B-level phantom beast expulsion medicine is no longer effective, we should retreat temporarily! It is still necessary to seal them. It can be done."

"Pity?" Lu Ning shot a liquid ball to the ground in front of her, and turned her head to ask Mo Lian.Mo Lianren also looked cautious: "We shouldn't consume too much here, let the soldiers come."

Lu Ning nodded, and the two opened their personal panels and issued orders.

It only takes a few minutes for mechanical soldiers to rush here from the surface to support, but at this moment, Qingniao suddenly shouted: "Captain! The response from the ground monitor! There is a long-distance attack approaching, it should be noticed The energy here is alive!"

"Then let's go further away."

Lu Ning watched as the fire spider stepped on the ground and fell directly into the softened rock hole. It would take some time to climb up. The people behind quickly sealed the one behind with grenades, and then the route of travel was very fast. retreat.

There were soldiers on the road to respond, but the unknown attack from afar still blasted directly into the ground.Everyone only felt the ground shaking, and when they climbed up from the twisted entrance, they found that there was a large pit with neat edges on the gravel field.

"Shot."

In a distant desert, the giant gun barrel protruding to the sky slowly shrinks.And in a building on the side below the gun barrel, Chen Han looked at the data in front of him and reported it to Zhao Xihuahui.

"How effective is the Tunguska cannon?"

"Uh...nothing to say." Chen Han saw the shooting results and the satellite pictures of the scene, "it's just that it's too sharp, and it's a little bit to use against my enemies..."

"It's you who begged me to help you with this favor. Killing people is because of lack of firepower. Unless he doesn't come to Tianmuyi, the Tunguska cannon can be aimed at any position on the planet." Zhao Xihua boredly took a piece of information, "To be honest, this thing is just a small fight between the two of you. The weapons brought by the technological tourists are the real monsters. I doubt whether Tianmuyi will still be there after this war is over. "

"Uh... what?"

"Excluding those who plan to use scene information to make troubles, my opponent must have prepared dark universe-level weapons, and the Paradise Lost in the hands of AL-007 and DU-014 is not hidden. HJ-013 is not the same as us. Those who came to this planet by means of condensing smoke must have found weapon relics on the way, and the rangers themselves are also dark universe-level civilizations." Zhao Xihua quickly flipped through the information in his hand, "Understood? Now it is a state of mutual nuclear deterrence , Outpost No. 1 probably really has mastered A-level Eudemons, otherwise we would have no place to do the final hunting mission. Besides, Mo Ningyan must have held such a regular army in her hand. What kind of backup weapon, the kind that can overturn the table."

"Then can we win?"

"Let's see if Qingyu can send me what I need at the right time." Zhao Xihua released the information, "We came here in a bit of a hurry, and it's because I didn't have enough preparations that I have time to get you the Tongus Cannon, but This is also the greatest help I can provide, if you really let me say, you'd better not participate in the fight of the gods in the back."

Chen Han's face turned a little blue. He knew that what Zhao Xihua said was true. Among the third-level tourists, he really belonged to the category of being above and below, and he had no ability to intervene in a war of this level.

"Captain Zhao, I know how capable I am, that's why I want to ask you for help...Thank you, I will let this cannon play the most effective."

"I don't need your determination. After all, you did keep your promise and provided me with a lot of help...Infrastructure, liaison, and investigations all need manpower. It's a skill to recognize your abilities and make the most of them. Otherwise, you won't Maybe at the third level." Zhao Xihua waved his hand, "I wish you success."

Chen Han nodded vigorously, then got up and left the room.
