Chapter 27 Absolute Shelter
The exploration center built around a narrow crack and located on the solid rock base was now full of instruments. The five teams went back and forth between the instruments, going out for a while from time to time to retrieve some material samples for inspection.
Most of the instruments are actually locally sourced by alchemists in another world and refined using alchemy. Only some high-precision core accessories are carried by the captain. It just so happens that World No. 1 is also a metal-rich world, so everyone simply created a complete set of experimental tools and temporarily built a small laboratory.
"Hey, the magic concentration is a bit wrong. Mage, look at this index."
At this time, the alchemist who was monitoring the changes in the surrounding energy and element concentration suddenly let out a low voice and said to the mage beside him. With his low voice, the knights and priests around him turned their heads and looked at the turning instrument with the mage.
"Hey, this is not wrong at all!" The moment he saw the instrument, the knight was shocked and he shouted: "Why has it suddenly soared to more than thirty times the basic value?! Your instrument is broken, right?!"
"I also think it's broken, so I plan to ask the mage to come and have a look." The alchemist nodded calmly: "Don't be nervous first, I'll analyze whether it's an instrument problem."
But soon, they didn't need to analyze the problem of any instrument, because everyone present sensed that the concentration of magic around was soaring at a speed visible to the naked eye. The spontaneous condensation of elements began to appear in the air. Even the knight who knew nothing about magic could see the light of the six elements in the laboratory, which immediately caused the exploration team to fall into a brief panic.
But then, even this short panic time will disappear.
Because in the sky, with the rumbling roar, black fog officially fell on the earth, just like black rain.
It can be seen that a black line fell vertically from the vacuum outside the sky and sank into a dense metal cloud. It continued to spread and split along the way, and continued to invade the surrounding material like ink dripping in clear water. It can be seen that in just a moment, this black mist swallowed all the metal clouds within a radius of dozens of kilometers, turning the gray-white metal particles into a shimmering and dim water surface.
The next moment, the water surface collapsed and turned into a surging trend, rushing towards the extremely deep crust cracks.
There are more than forty tributaries of black fog over the entire world No. 1. They enter more than forty crustal cracks at the same time and penetrate into the center of the world. As the black fog deepens, the turbulent crustal movement of the world suddenly becomes peaceful, and the scorching lava vents gradually fade. The calm lava lake begins to cool down, and the cracks that release a large amount of metal black smoke and high-heat steam are no longer moving, as if they are dead, and the continuous earthquakes and volcanic eruptions have stopped long ago.
It can even be seen that the orange-red magma sea deep in the mantle is becoming dark, as if it has been robbed of all vitality... It can be confirmed that the black fog is using the cracks in the earth's crust as the entrance and exit, and is willing to absorb the energy of the planet.
This planet is just its supply station.
The elite team of elites located in the laboratory around the crust crack was "fortunate" to witness this scene with their own eyes.
The mage, who was originally planning to detect the concentration of magic power, stared in shock at the image from the observation array located deep in the crack in the ground. He and his companions witnessed the scene of black fog invading the inside of the planet and absorbing lava energy. Everyone was extremely quiet, for fear of attracting the other party's attention.
"What the hell is this... going deep into the center of the earth, absorbing magma, and still proliferating itself?"
The priest whispered: "This thing...at least it is the peak of extreme intention, right?"
"No……"
Prest looked at the screen, staring at the black fog and engulfing the mantle magma with big mouthfuls, swallowing all the energy in the entire crack, and swallowing: "It's a legend."
"Why are we still standing there when we encounter the existence of a legendary alien world? Run!"
As soon as they finished speaking, the entire laboratory immediately began to prepare in panic. In just a few seconds, everyone carried the most important data on them. As for the equipment in the laboratory, if they lost it, they would lose it. No matter how many times more, there was no way to compare with the information about discovering the existence of legends in another world. The most important thing they are now to stay away from this terrifying existence as soon as possible, and then send a message back to Mycrov, requesting support or asking for interruption of exploration and returning as soon as possible.
Thirty seconds later, everyone rode on the off-road vehicle driven by the knight. The next moment, as the other party stepped on the magic door with force, the engine roared, and the whole car transformed in an instant and flew into the air.
And at this moment, the elite team truly saw the full picture of the terrifying incident that happened in World No. 1.
"Oh my God..."
Watching this scene, the driver's hand began to tremble, but soon, he reacted and grabbed the steering wheel steadily. But even so, the entire car rotated rapidly in the air for a week, causing everyone in the car to exclaim.
It wasn't his fault, because everyone in the team had similar reactions... After all, what they saw was enough to shock the powerful man with the spirit to lose his mind.
It was a black sky.
Originally shrouded in World No. 1, the gray-white metal clouds had completely disappeared. They were all converted into a smooth substance that looked like black water surface, reflecting energy ripples. The black water clouds enveloped the surface of most of the planet and absorbed all the energy heat that was scattered as much as possible. In addition, more than forty black needles like straws extended out of this sky, inserted directly into the cracks of the earth's crust. It can be seen that from time to time, a ball of golden-red energy is transmitted from under the black needle to the water cloud body at a high place, causing a faint golden-red light to flow from the other party's extremely dark body.
This scene is so spectacular that it even surpasses some people's imagination. If you have to make an example, it is like a giant insect covering the sky and sun leaning over a giant named the world, absorbing the other party's hot blood.
The elite team and others had no choice but to do this... What else do they have? When they encountered such an existence at the first time they performed the exploration mission, they were helpless... Everyone could only urge the knight to accelerate and leave the perimeter of the extremely dangerous crust crack as quickly as possible, so as not to attract the other party's attention.
"We are just little bugs, just ignore us like gravel..."
The alchemist was scribbling with gestures of various gods in his hands, and he began to not know who to pray to, while the priests closed their eyes and began to mutter: "You can't see me, you can't see me, you can't see me..."
Priest does not have the freedom to ignore reality. He is constantly checking the maps drawn by himself and others in recent times, constantly giving directions to the knights who are desperately stepping on the accelerator. The mage also fought his life and released five light acumen to the off-road vehicle in a row, all for better escape.
But this is meaningless and futile.
The boom was accompanied by a loud thunderous sound, and the black sky seemed to have completed its feeding. It took back more than forty tentacles and incorporated them into its body. Its huge, bowl-like body began to deform rapidly, turning into a ball of black balls suspended in the sky, a regular black ball. The radius of this ball alone exceeded fifty kilometers. It just suspended on the earth, bringing suffocating terrifying pressure to all existences in the world.
And its next actions made the elite team and the dead burst into flames.
It is extremely huge, and the black ball of the city is comparable to that of the city. Below its spherical body, a geometric figure of the stream of consciousness that seems to be an eye-like. It is "gazing" at a small speed that is away from it at a speed of 200 kilometers per hour, as if it is judging something.
Then, it generates a tentacle and swings it in the direction where the speed is located.
At the moment when the black ball was 'footed', the thinking of everyone in the elite team fell into a stagnation in an instant. They felt that there was an extremely terrifying feeling in both spiritual and material aspects. An extremely huge existence was directly staring at themselves. At that moment, it seemed as if the world was dim, and all light and colors were meaningless. They seemed to sink into darkness like this until their will was destroyed, and their lives were dissipated in the void.
If they were ordinary people, the ending would be like this, and there would be no chance of avoidance. Fortunately, they are not ordinary people. At least they have experienced the personal training of a certain lord and have a lot of experience in attack resistance in this area.
So after a brief fall, Prest woke up from the dark fantasy in cold sweat, and the knight immediately began to control the speed vehicle that almost crashed due to loss of control. Almost everyone recovered at the same time. However, before everyone could start to be grateful for their good luck and the resistance brought by training, they all saw the seemingly "lightly" pulling from nearly a thousand kilometers away.
It seems light and fluttering, but in fact, the tentacle foot swept by the black ball is nearly one kilometer thick. It swept through the atmosphere and brought out numerous sonic booms and shock waves that were enough to flatten the mountains. This tentacle crossed a metal mountain in World No. 1, and the mountain was immediately broken by the waist, and the crack turned into magma due to high heat friction.
Seeing this scene, everyone in the elite team knew that even the strong people in the extreme faced this attack, they should be careful, otherwise the thought would turn into powder, let alone the group of young people who had not reached the golden level? Suddenly, the knight who was angrily stepping on the steering wheel released his feet, and the mage who was supporting the shield sighed, lying on the seat, the alchemist holding the information terminal, leaving a last word, while the priest took out a photo, closed his eyes, and seemed to be talking to the person in the photo.
Prest was actually not much better. The first thought that flashed through his mind was, "Will it hurt to be killed by a legendary existence?", but, just as he was completely disappointed, this gray-haired man from the south noticed the photo in the hands of the priest.
It was a magical image of a young girl. The girl seemed to be taking a selfie and laughed happily. She should be a relative or girlfriend of the priest... and because of this image, Prest remembered his sister, he remembered his responsibilities, and remembered his oath he had promised her.
He remembered a lot, including the mystery he had learned, or barely grasped, from the master on the afternoon of the day at Ares Fortress.
"What the hell is you stupid? Do you really think you will die?!"
Sharply, in the carriage, Preest roared and woke all the desperate players from the silence of death. He glared at his eyes and looked around his teammates: "Even if you die, you must fight to the last moment! No matter how strong the enemy is, we must dare to take action or even charge!"
"You all forgot, who taught you? You didn't dare to resist. You were embarrassed to go to hell if you died!"
Before he finished speaking, he pulled out five bottles of magic potions shining with different lights with his backhand. He gritted his teeth without hesitation and opened the potion injection groove at the arm armor and placed all the potions in succession.
Gu, Gu, Gu... Suddenly, dragon power potion, magic burning potion, lightning potion, iron armor potion and holy healing potion, five advanced magic potions were injected into Priest's body at the same time. The violent magic power and the power of holy light washed the warrior's body. In an instant, accompanied by the sound of blood, I could only see the transparent observation mirror on Priest's helmet turning into bright red, but he firmly took out a large translucent shield from behind and placed it in front of him.
"Damn it, the captain doesn't want it, neither do I want it!"
"Don't die, I still want to try it. Can this monster from another world do anything to do with a random thrust!"
Seeing Priest's decisive actions, the rest of the elite team suddenly felt courageous in their hearts, anyway, it was nothing more than death. Why not die and fight harder? Just hearing the sound of the injection of potions, the entire off-road vehicle was faster, and the shield covering the outside was also incredibly thickened layer by layer, and it was even wrapped with a large number of holy light magic.
"Haha, you have to have such momentum!" Priest smashed the glass in the back seat of the off-road vehicle. He looked at the people who were already excited and at least began to fight for their lives. A sense of curiosity surged in his heart. He took one step forward and stood at the rear of the car. Priest placed the translucent crystal shield "gravity shield" made by Joshua Van Radcliffe in front of him. His eyes and his body were filled with crazy white fighting flames.
And in front of him, a tentacle that was as good as a mountain range, enough to smash the earth's crust and tear the continental shelf was slowly falling.
"Let you see the 'mastery' that my teacher gave me!" u
