Chapter 2474: guests who visit
In the huge space with no visible edge, countless roots extended to the surrounding and submerged into the stone wall, and there were countless large and small voids densely distributed on the stone wall.
In the center of the space is a huge sphere with a diameter of several kilometers, like a cracked and shrunken walnut, with countless folds all over its surface.
In the depths of the folds, a faint red light alternated between light and dark, like breathing.
Jilena stood at the bottom, looking up at the core hanging in mid-air until the oppression caused her to withdraw her gaze.
"How are the preparations?"
"Everything is ready."
Another wave member made a gesture of completion.
Behind them, stood a facility made of transparent crystals, whose shape was similar to a towering tower. Streams of light slowly flowed through the crystals, exuding a pleasant buzzing like wind chimes.
At the very center of the small tower is a silver-white ring with a diameter of about five or six centimeters.
They had been here a few days ago.
The purpose is very simple, it is to build this facility, and at the same time debug the system running inside to achieve the most perfect frequency.
Since the core is sleeping, let it sleep forever.
A normal person would be flustered when he wakes up from a nightmare, not to mention such a big guy. If he was woken up directly, it would undoubtedly be a disaster for the city on the ground.
Lullaby.
This is the internal name of the wave.
Jiliana's leisure time did not last long, and soon received a contact from Oxia.
"Yes...understand...everything is planned...no problem!"
The light curtain in front of her dissipated, and Jilena breathed a sigh of relief.
Although everything that should be prepared has been prepared, but at this moment, she can't help but feel a little nervous.
Perhaps this is biological instinct.
"Let's go and meet our 'guest'."
Jiliana took a few deep breaths and walked towards the passage with a smile on her face.
…
The doctor looked back and saw that the passage behind him had been swallowed up by darkness, and the front was also as deep as ink, and the snake-like roots were hidden, as if heading for the abyss.
In the chest cavity, two hearts are beating rapidly.
He could feel the call coming from the front, and a voice in his mind was urging him to hurry up.
The doctor shook his head and tried to throw it away, but in vain.
Stop, rest for a while, and move forward again.
I don't know when the temperature in the air has risen a little. If you are not sensitive, it is difficult to detect, and there is a feeling of being in a forest.
The runes on the surface of the roots are regularly on and off, and occasionally there will be thunder-like sounds coming from a distance.
Boom!
A heartbeat-like sound wave swept along the passage, as if a heavy hammer was hitting the heart, bringing bursts of suffocating dullness.
The doctor seems to be used to this, and the speed of the forward is much faster.
After some time, he stopped.
The passage seems to have reached the end, and there is a little brighter spot in the darkness, which should lead to a wider space.
That kind of insidious call disappeared completely, but it was just dormant and did not appear.
In addition, the doctor also felt several powerful breaths appearing at the end of the passage.
In the "sight" of the special sensory organs that have grown, it is as if a bonfire burning under the night is eye-catching.
…
Jiliana and the others held their breaths, staring at the passage, the darkness leading to nowhere seemed to be connected to an indescribable place, and a wordless fear lingered in everyone's heart.
In the dead silence, the occasional low humming from the core was the only sound.
Jilena felt that her mind seemed to be detached from her body at this moment, drifting along the network of roots, not knowing where it led.
rustling…
As if the sound of bugs crawling on the sand came from the darkness at some point, a wave member subconsciously clenched the weapon in his hand.
As the distance approached, things in the dark gradually appeared in front of everyone.
It probably has the appearance of a human, with tattered bandages wrapped around it, and countless pale roots drilled out of the flesh and blood, as if an airtight spider web firmly wrapped it.
The body seems to have collapsed and broken, and there is even a large hole in the chest cavity, which is filled and supported by roots.
"What's this?!"
Even though she had expected it, Jiliana couldn't help but let out a suppressed exclamation.
It is really that this thing is too challenging to the aesthetics of normal people. The distorted and mutated body seems to be controlled by these roots, giving people an indescribable and unknown fear.
It has nothing to do with strength, it is just the most instinctive reaction of living things.
After discovering their obstruction, the creatures that emerged from the darkness seemed to roar angrily, their voices overlapping like waves, and they charged at a sudden speed.
"Stop it!"
Jilena whispered.
The magic power surged and turned into a transparent barrier visible to the naked eye. The slightly raised arc reflected a gorgeous brilliance, and there was a bit of mystery in the dream.
thump—
The dull crashing sound made Jiliana feel a suffocating chest tightness, her pupils narrowed slightly, and she looked at the scene in front of her in disbelief.
The barrier strong enough to resist the Apocalypse-level collapse infestation was deeply dented in the center of the impact.
From a distance, it was like a tenacious balloon being held down by external force, as if it could not withstand the terrifying pressure in the next second, and burst open with a bang.
But the toughness of the barrier is far beyond imagination, and even Oxia will feel quite a headache when facing it.
When a certain limit is reached, no matter how the monster roars, it will no longer expand.
Jiliana breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, the more power she used, the greater the rebound power she received.
Just like a brick, it may not be difficult to break it from the middle, but to break one-half again, the force required will increase exponentially.
But what happened next made her breathless.
Xu Shi sensed the lack of his own strength, and the creature's body that hit the barrier seemed to have some kind of change. Those white roots slowly wriggled and condensed like life, and finally turned into spikes.
Then aim at an area with the greatest pressure, and stab down.
The white light flickered, and Jilena couldn't help but narrow her eyes slightly. At that moment, she even felt that the space was pierced, and the sharp meaning even penetrated the barrier, making her eyes feel tingling.
Click!
The sound like glass shattering was rather harsh at this moment.
A tiny crack appeared quietly from the contact area, which looked insignificant and eye-catching.
In the next second, countless cracks spread rapidly around this center, and the entire barrier reached the limit and shattered.
