Orders scurried over the radio, and all the teams lay silently dormant, waiting for the final action to begin.

In the airship that stayed in mid-air, the power of the lifting device dropped a little again, and it was enough to maintain the power that could levitate these steel behemoths in mid-air. The wind in the sky suddenly became a little stronger, and through the window, a layer of clouds below slowly fluttered under the force of the wind, and more clouds slowly appeared in the void sky, which merged into the clouds, thickening them at a visible speed.

Soon after, a muffled "boom" sound from afar passed through the great distance, sweeping the entire volcanic uninhabited area at a very fast speed. It's thunder, and it's already raining everywhere. The wind and clouds seemed to be affected, and in a few breaths, they gradually became violent.

The clouds began to change, like an angry sea, and layers of clouds rolled over the sky, thickening and stacking. Originally, the mountains below could still be faintly visible, but now, everything was completely separated by clouds, except for the snow-covered white summit with clouds open. The sky and the ground became two worlds that were not connected.

In the airship, Il and Theodore didn't care about this, or rather, it was all within their calculations. Choosing the weather and making a plan to get here is also part of their hunt and hunt.

The rolling thunder reached their ears, and the focus on the map was a little distracting.

"Silkian, help me ask about the exact time frame for this rain to fall. Ilr then looked up and said to Sitian, "If I remember correctly, the weapons of the ground forces are waterproof, right? ”

"It's all treated so that it doesn't go unusable due to rain. Stien walked over, she had given the relevant orders, and now it was time to carry out the tests and contact with the teams.

"The news I got from the Astronomical Palace of the Seminary was that it would be a heavy rainstorm that would last for two or three hours, and then turn to a light rain and then stop. The clouds will not dissipate after that, and if you accumulate enough strength, you will be in a cycle. The time for a complete clear day was three days later. ”

Sitian added, "If the Astronomical Palace of the Seminary had been right, it would have been the case. ”

"Enough, we need nothing more than this rainstorm now, and then we don't have to worry about it. ”

"Tell the ground forces to move forward in ten minutes, the distance is judged for themselves, but not to reach the danger zone we have drawn in advance. Theodore interjected, he rubbed his forehead, and for a long time he was simulating the scene on the map in his head, which consumed his spirit, "It's almost time to start, thunder has already sounded, when a thundercloud is detected, remember to let all the airships descend a height, try to avoid the range of the lightning strike." They are all small and medium-sized airships, and their ability to resist the forces of nature is not as good as those merchant ships above the cruiser level, so they have to be careful.

"Understood. Sitian chuckled, the communicator in her hand vibrated at this moment, and after a brief answer, she said, "Several machines are ready, and the data and communication connections are also isolated from the interference of the weather, and can be activated at any time." ”

"Just follow the plan in five minutes. ”

Under the clouds, the withered yellow grass shook in the wind. Growing wildly in no man's land, they provide excellent camouflage for ground troops, wearing field combat suits with mimicry capabilities, and the ability to change color on their own and each member's own ability, there are no visual problems.

"Trono, are you going?" asked Ressa, crouching cautiously in the grass, pressing her body very low.

"But Il, they're here, and they're all in charge. I've done everything I should have done myself, and the information gathering and terrain surveying were all the same. "Don't you realize that the mountain range in front of you is the source of these 'germs'?" As we advance from the periphery these days, you know exactly how much the concentration of 'germs' has risen. There is no specific statement that the samples brought back for testing are temporarily blended with the drug, and according to the characteristics of the test, a layer of coping material is also added to the inner layer of the clothes, as long as the skin is not exposed too much, the influence of 'germs' can be isolated in a short time. ”

"That being said, but do you really believe the news that Duyle brought?"

Resa didn't speak, just looked at Trono, and he was thinking. He had the same thoughts in his heart as Trono, but the current situation forced him to think about other things.

Trono grabbed a handful of withered grass and shook it in front of Ressa: "This is the result, I don't want to be like these withered grass." The concentration in the mountains will only be higher, and the battle will inevitably be wounded and bloody. Il and Theodore didn't say it, but it would definitely be a hassle for 'germs' to invade the body. The group of prospectors is the best example of this. ”

"Or do you have the confidence to face your prey without taking any harm?"

"But before I can face his prey, he'll have to deal with a huge team. Resa retorted, he admitted Trono's words, but he felt that Trono's whole human nature had changed since the events in the Messelia region, "There is only one prey, and the gap between us and our numbers is too big, I can't think of a reason for the failure of this operation." ”

"This is what you think about the fact that the body has been reduced to pieces, and the Milton whose body has not been found yet. ”

No more talking, Trono closed his mouth tightly, and the "rustle" of weeds rubbing against his ears rang in his ears.

It's so quiet, he thought, I really hope that this matter will be over soon, and he can get out of here completely, whether it is Il and them who are still alive in the end, or the prey standing on the corpse, it has nothing to do with him. For him, I don't know how long it took for this task to completely change its flavor and become a joke.

The communicator vibrated at this moment, and Resa whispered that it was Clercy, asking where the two of them were.

When Il and Theodore arrived, Clecy handed over the command of his men to the two. That's what the Templar HQ meant above, and Clercy was happy to do the same. asked Mi Weijia to help him check the information, and the comprehensive strength of the two was indeed incomparable to him.

Clercy roughly inquired about Resa and Trono's next plan, all three of them were the captains of the team, although they all had to follow the command of Il and Theodore, but in case of emergency, it was they who commanded and organized the attack of the ground team.

The mood is not much different from Trono's, and in the few days they get along, they have been affected, and because of their own personality, Clercy is not willing to contribute to this matter. The environment was so weird, and the dead plants around him made him think a lot during this time. It's just that there is a deviation in direction, and he thinks that the reason for this is something that runs out of the southern forest behind the mountains. There has been news that the team stationed there has been completely annihilated by Class 2 creatures.

With their own moods, the three of them watched the mountains in front of them as the light became dimmer and dimmer, waiting for the time to come.

The thunder was approaching, and above the lake, the two airships broke away from the formation at this time, came to the top of the protruding snow-white peak, and slowly descended.

In the snow and fog that was stirred up by the lifting device, nearly a hundred people passed through the rope and landed on the peak. In a few breaths, their pale gray clothes all turned the color of snow. More than 100 people also separated one after another, forming several teams from different directions to march a short distance down the mountain, and then stopped and began to wait. It was at this point that the encirclement was truly completed.

-----At the same moment, a rapid short sound came to everyone's communicator, and everyone took out their earbuds and looked at the mountains in front of them, or the clouds piled up above the mountains, as if they couldn't bear their own weight.

In fact, there was no sound coming out, but with the feeling of the surgeon, something was captured. It's as if it acts directly on the brain, synchronized with its own frequency, and makes them feel a little nauseous.

The snow surface on top of the mountain moved slightly, and many of the ice cracks at this time. Even the clouds showed obvious lines, boiling and exploding, like water ripples pushing layer by layer towards the huge mountains below.

"The power is turned on to maximum and the output is normal. In the control room of the airship, the voice of the operator explains the current situation, "The specific detection pattern is being analyzed and generated, and it will take about five minutes." ”

The analysis was calculated according to a proprietary program fed into the analysis machine, and the image gradually appeared on the magnetic panel, and the outline of the huge mountain range was fully formed, but the obvious details were missing. As time progressed, the interior of the mountain began to appear. The color of the whole picture is generally black, but it is much lighter in some places.

Where the color is lighter, the shape is not irregular, but it presents a curved or straight shape. That's connected caves and some larger cavities.

"What a great machine. Sitian then walked up to Il and Theodore and said.

Before arriving in the territory of Borghese, Sitian integrated the information collected by Trono and Clecy, and concluded that the prey had come here not simply to avoid them, but to have a clear goal. Because in the early observation, they found some entrances to the caves, so before coming here, they changed the route and went to a more prosperous area on the way.

There is a regional branch of the Imperial Mining Company, from which the machines that are now in operation were purchased.

What's the most important thing about a mineral? Perhaps it's the difficulty of extracting it. But in the case of Imperial Minerals, mining would be the easiest thing to do. How to find the rich minerals hidden under the ground or in the rocks is what they think is the most important thing. As a giant company specializing in the mining and excavation of various minerals, as well as subsequent processing, Imperial Mineral Source has rich experience in finding minerals.

Il: The machines they are using now are one of those that serve this. Guessing that the prey is likely to be hidden in a cave, and the machine only needs to solve it with money, it will not be an obstacle to its realization. Even if the prediction was wrong, the money spent would only be a one-point increase for the Templar and the Knights of the Rose and Rose. For example, change seven to eight, and the problem is completely solved.

The pale blue surface of the lake is a red and green color, and the shadows of countless tiny creatures floating in the water can be seen with the naked eye. Almost all the floating fish sank to the bottom of the lake, and the water quality could no longer be described as simply turbid, and the smell made the sensitive sense of smell make Cassia subconsciously reduce the reception of sensations in the nose area.

The weight of the black cloud put a lot of pressure on Kasia, and he didn't know when the enemy would attack, but he knew that he must have made several plans for different scenarios. There are events in the Mecelian region that remind them that their actions will only become more and more perfect.

Jumping into the lake, Kasia dives and swims towards the abandoned town. I felt that I had only swam half the distance, and my head was suddenly filled with the sound of "---".

The unusually sensitive sound reception made his head swell, and immediately blocked out some of his senses, and Kasia hurried to swim to the lake. Walking ashore without turning his head, the three-dimensional image generated in his brain told him what was going on behind him.

Circles of arc-shaped ripples rippled in the air, and layers continued to penetrate the mountain. More ripples are the feedback that occurs when the sound is blocked. The three sound sources are above the clouds, standing in the triangle of the mountains, completely enveloping the mountains without a single gap.

"They're probing the structure of the mountain!" Cassia looked at the ripples, and the scattered sound waves allowed him to pick up a lot of patterns of lines. Outside of the town, Kasia also sensed the gaze that appeared and disappeared into the mountains.

"I'm so well prepared、、、" didn't know how to express his feelings at the moment, he originally wanted to use the interweaving of the cave network to put himself in an advantageous position. But now, compared to the enemy, maybe the map in my head will be lacking. After all, during this time, he didn't explore the entire cave network.

Arriving at the temporary resting place, Kasia opened the carefully wrapped rubbing, and although it was a little regrettable, he finally lit a fire in the corner. Except for the small notebook that recorded the strange characters and symbols on his body, all other materials quickly turned to ashes in his eyes.

"I can't contact Ye Jielin's side. Opening the lid of the communication machine, Kasia looked at the flashing red light and shook her head to destroy it completely, and the storage structure inside was also pulled out, forming shards mixed with gears under her feet. The communication equipment has been improved with the Ato ring, adding a less complicated function that can detect whether there is information interference in the surrounding area in a small area.

Although I thought that the enemy would definitely have similar means, whether it was interference, interception and decipherment, I still held on a little hope. It's just that Kasia thinks that he should be more confident in himself, or a little more confident in his enemies, and there are many things that everyone can think of.

Picking up the weapon case, Kasia briefly cleaned up the traces here, leaving no specific information, and prepared to return to the cave immediately. When I came to the lake, half of my body had already entered the lake, but a strange wave was transmitted through the earth at this time, and it seemed to be nothing, and it was impossible to capture.

For a moment, Kasia wondered if he had stepped on the bones of the fish at the bottom of the lake, and from the direction of the mountains, a wave like a white line rose from the place where the lake met the foot of the mountain, and swept across the entire surface of the lake, gently hitting the shore. During this period, the strange fluctuations appeared several times in succession, and then it calmed down.

Kasia froze in place, feeling the subtle fluctuations. After a few breaths, a circle of smaller, undulating sound waves rose from under the surface of the lake in his eyes. More precisely, it rises from the roots of the mountains in front of you and goes straight to the ground, and scatters around.

In a short period of time, Kasia was moved by the different aura that spread from the mountain range in front of him. The heaviness and oppression all turned into an angry irritability in a very short time. 2k reading web
