Chapter 749: Purgatory Planet
Hao Ren knows that no matter what this girl Lily does, she will inevitably be unexpected, and it is meaningless to speculate on the words and deeds of this thing with common sense and habits: when you think she is a werewolf, she will show you, when you think she is brave, she will show you, when you think she can only commit two crimes, she will recite poems to show you, when you think she wants literature and art...... She'll show you the dog's blindness.
But to be honest, Lily still didn't count the jΓΉ terminal surprisingly, after all, when I was in the virtual Zom before, the goods even died for you......
Hao Ren pressed Lily's head, and walked forward first, reminding the people behind him as he went: "Be careful to avoid the source of magma and rock steam, the sun in this place has just passed, and there should still be a lot of heat accumulated under the formation, so that that thing can be sprayed at once is no different from falling into the steelmaking furnace." β
He was mainly reminding Lily and Vivien, as for the two of them...... Don't worry about this creature that can bathe in magma.
Vivien watched the golden stream of light at the end of the horizon sink and patted her cheek, "I don't like the sun...... Especially on this planet. β
"Bat, you're definitely a vampire like no other!" Lily bounced around Vivien, "Normal vampires usually let the sun bask half-dead, you actually stand here and follow the whole planet into the sun, you can blow it for a year, right?" β
Vivien no longer had the strength to talk to Lily, and she waved her hand weakly, "All I want now is to get back before the sun rises the next day." β
Hao Ren pulled out his spare equipment, a palm-sized, tablet-like silver-white crystal plate with a holographic image of a large area centered on the Giant Turtle Rock Terrace spacecraft, which was a temporary navigation map drawn by the Giant Turtle Rock Platform with radar. The footage is unsettling: the radar shows that the ground beneath the crowd's feet is not really frozen at all. It is a layer of scum-like stuff formed by light rock with a high melting point, and is only a few meters thick. Below it was a semi-molten crust, with more than a dozen rivers of magma flowing beneath the people's feet. There is nothing stable about this structure. It relies on a fragile balance to maintain the status quo, but it is experiencing large and small collapses and eruptions all the time.
"The rift is ahead," Hao Ren pointed to a black "mountain" hundreds of meters ahead, "The radar shows that there is a very regular-shaped, shaft-like cavity down there, which can be maintained in this situation, and it should not be a natural product." β
"The ground is soft," Lily wagged her tail to keep her balance, "I think there's a lava lake down there......"
Following the guidance of the navigation map, this small expedition team made its way cautiously on this death-scorched earth. The scene around is like hell. Even more horrible and harsh than hell. After the sunlight faded, the back of the planet was not completely darkened, because the crust that had not yet been completely cooled was covered with dark red glowing cracks, and along with these rivers of magma flowing in the dark and cracked earth, new cracks were constantly breaking in the ground, and the surging rock steam erupted from those cracks like a fountain, and some of the air columns could even soar straight into the air for tens of kilometers.
These huge and always sudden columns of steam made the usually hairy Lily cautious, and she followed Hao Ren closely, grabbing the latter's clothes and showing her loyalty with a stern expression: "Landlord. I'll protect you! β
If she hadn't clamped her tail when she said this, Hao Renxing might have really believed it.
"Watch out for the cracks that suddenly appear in the ground," Izax reminded in a gruff voice, "I'm ahead of me. β
Although this planet that is falling into the sun is indeed a little worse than the ordinary demon realm, Izax, as a high-level demon, still has a little more resistance than the others here. He strode past Hao Ren and walked to the front of the group. Elizabeth immediately jumped up to her father's figure. The father and daughter discussed as they walked: "Dad, do you think that the Red Mountain in our hometown is the same as this?" "No, it's much cooler than this......"
At this time, Elizabeth was trotting a few steps forward. The ground under her feet suddenly bulged abnormally, and Hao Ren quickly reminded when he saw this situation: "Be careful!" β
But it's still a step too late. The bulging ground erupted suddenly, and a powerful wave of rock vapor erupted from the underground cavities. In an instant, a huge pillar of air was formed that soared into the sky, and the little girl Elizabeth disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Lily exclaimed and looked up at the sky, but nothing could be seen in the dark night sky. She was a little nervous: "It's not going to happen, is it?" β
"It's okay, at most startled," Itzhax was calmer than the others, and he laughed as he looked for the direction his daughter flew out, "Although that kid's physique is weaker than that of ordinary demons, he is still not afraid of this little heat...... Oh, it looks like it fell. β
Before he could finish speaking, everyone saw a small dot in the air with teeth and claws, and Elizabeth was fluttering in the air and shouting loudly in the communicator: "Catch! Catch it! β
Everyone quickly stood in a circle and opened their hands, and then the little girl fell exactly outside the circle.
"Hiss......" Elizabeth rubbed her ass. The strand got up from the ground, "What kind of eyes are you......"
Hao Ren looked at the little devil in surprise: "You can't fly?" High-level demons can fly, right? β
"Haven't I been an adult, and my wings haven't grown," Elizabeth said, clutching her ass. Jumping back one by one, "Anyway, I just saw the entrance in the sky!" It's right behind that little hill over there! β
With the help of Navigation Map and Elizabeth, the group found the suspicious rift.
It is a regular-shaped, almost circular opening, with a shaft nearly perpendicular to the ground below. Around the circular opening, you can see a neat bulge that looks like a crater, and judging by the protrusions that remain on the structure, there must have been something else here.
It may have been a device used to seal the entrance, such as a large gate - but it must have been destroyed long ago.
"It's burned, but it's undoubtedly man-made," Vivien poked her head out and glanced down the shaft, "the ground was faintly visible below, and it didn't look like it had melted yet." Do you want to go down? β
"There is no other choice," Hao Ren gritted his teeth, "I have the strongest shield, I'll go down first, you listen to my signal." β
Vivian pulled Hao Ren and conjured a small bat casually: "It may be dangerous, or use my little bat to probe...... Forehead. β
As soon as the little bat came out and didn't take off, it quickly wilted, and in the blink of an eye, it was almost turned into a bat, and Vivien had to quickly put it away.
"I don't have a life support collar for it," Hao Ren smiled, casually throwing a probe with a camera into the shaft, making sure that it was the ground below, and then jumped down.
Underneath the shaft was solid ground, which, despite the scorching heat, showed no signs of softening. Hao Ren slammed on the ground, and when he got up, he observed his surroundings and found that this was a place similar to a subway intersection.
There are three wide, dark corridors that meet here, and I don't know where each leads somewhere.
He turned on the communicator, "It's safe down there - and the structure looks like an underground bunker, we should have found shelter." β
The others soon converged in the underground corridor, and Lily looked in amazement at the dark corridor that stretched out in front of her: "...... This place didn't melt? β
"After all, it's not a natural product, look at these walls, the material science and technology of the people who make them should not be low," Hao Ren pointed to the four walls of Yongdao, although the walls have been completely blackened, and many parts are still distorted, but it can still be seen that the material is a precision and strong synthetic material, "But they can't carry it for long, this planet is disintegrating, and it looks like it's about to reach a critical point, so we'd better hurry." β
Vivien frowned at this fork in the road: "Three roads, do you want to explore them separately?" β
"It's best not to separate, there may be new forks in the road ahead, it's useless to explore separately," Hao Ren shook his head, "The radar shows that there are bigger holes deep underground, it should be the main location of the shelter, as long as these forks are not blocked, they should all lead to the depths, so let's go in the direction of navigation." β
