Chapter 787 Behemoth
The painter only dug the soil layer as deep as one person. After jumping from the hole, the passage began to narrow.Lin Sanjiu had no choice but to climb all the way down, digging down the soil clods in front of her all the way, and then transforming them into cards—the cards she can transform every day are limited, and she will use up the number of cards soon; fortunately, at this time However, the soil road in front of it gradually widened, and finally stretched into a spacious hollow.
They finally straightened up and walked forward as silently as possible while holding onto the dirt wall.
Under the ground tens of meters deep, everything is immersed in the dim darkness, which obscures people's vision.I can't distinguish my fingers in my field of vision, only the smell of soil is getting stronger and stronger, and from time to time, there will be a "crack" sound under my feet, and I will step on a puddle of slippery slime.The two groped for a while in the dark, foul smell, and she felt a faint fig smell hit her ears, and then Sibaan's voice rang out in a low voice: "Illumination."
Before Lin Sanjiu took out the [Ability Polishing Agent], a pale light suddenly shot out from her shoulder; she lowered her head, and realized that it was the multi-clawed beast on her shoulder that Sibaan had just ordered. Little machinery.
As soon as the light fell into the darkness, it immediately scattered lightly, filling the entire soil cave together with countless floating dust.
The soil hole seemed to be only [-] to [-] square meters, about the size of a bedroom.Occasionally, there are crooked dents on the soil wall, as if pressed out by something passing by; the ground is slippery, with puddles of mucus glistening wetly.
The wall facing the two of them seemed to be able to absorb all the light, but it was still sunk in darkness.Lin Sanjiu walked towards that wall, the light floated slowly along her footsteps, and fell into the darkness——she looked up and down, couldn't help being slightly surprised, and turned her head and whispered: "This is behind It's a cavity, we can go on down!"
"The two sides of this earth hole are also in a radial direction, and it gets wider and wider." Sibaan also followed up, and looked at it with the light: "...However, this cavity is really big enough."
His voice drifted hollowly into the cavity, gradually dissipating.The cavity behind the earth cave looked like a hall connecting the bedrooms, but it was too deep—the light could faintly illuminate the arched dome above the head, but could not illuminate the deep darkness below.
Connecting the cavity and the earth cave is a slope much wider than the wall of the earth cave, and the ground is also covered with crooked dents.It's just that the dents on the slope got bigger and bigger, and the marks left behind were deeper, mixed together; the two stepped on these uneven dents, and walked slowly down in the emptiness and silence. , getting farther and farther away from the world, but it seems to be getting closer and closer to an absurd dream.
There are cavities below the cavity, and one is deeper and one is wider than the other.After walking for several hours, they couldn't even see the edge of the hollow. Only the curved dent on the ground still accompanied the two of them, but the dent was enough for the two of them to lie side by side.Sibaan took out two more flashlights, but after piercing the darkness, the light could only gradually dissipate helplessly, and finally melted into the distant darkness.
"The ground here is level,"
In the constantly overlapping light and shadow, Sibaan's face looked like a reflection of the forest lake, almost without the mortal breath.He put away the cylinder on the ground, stood up and said softly: "Maybe there is still a cavity that goes deeper... I don't know how deep it will be the end."
Lin Sanjiu turned his head and looked around. Wherever he looked, there was only endless darkness.The air was not as thin as she thought, and her breathing was still as smooth as when she was on the ground.Even though there was a larger cavity below, they didn't know which direction to turn; either way, it looked like the same distant nothingness.
She stood still for a while, then suddenly asked softly, "Why is the cavity getting bigger and bigger?"
Siba'an was startled, then frowned, and remained silent for a while.
"What? What do you think?"
"I seem to have a thought just now, let me think about it..." The blond man muttered to himself, but suddenly raised his head—Lin Sanjiu was startled, and was about to ask if he With an idea, unexpectedly he grabbed her wrist: "Did you hear that?"
What do you hear?
She held her breath, listened carefully, and then couldn't help but change her face: "Then, what is that sound?"
Just like a storm and rain hitting the ground, there were louder and clearer rustling sounds from the dome overhead; the two stood there in surprise and suspicion, with the flashlight continuously pointing upwards Swept away, but before the light illuminated the dome, it was swallowed by the darkness just like before.
They were in the deep underground at this time, even if it really rained suddenly outside, they would never hear the slightest movement.
When the light circle of the flashlight crossed the darkness again, a fine black shadow flashed across the field of vision of the two of them.
"Over there!" Lin Sanjiu called out, and the light in their hands immediately converged in the same direction.The light circle of the flashlight continued to burn brightly in the darkness, but there was nothing in the circle of light; the rustling noise above the head became louder, humming and interweaving in the cavity, echoing indistinctly sound.
Just when Lin Sanjiu almost thought that he had seen it wrong just now, another shapeless black shadow suddenly crossed the circle of light, and fell to the ground in the distance with a "click".
That thing seemed to be a signal——immediately afterwards, countless clusters of fine soil began to fall from the dome above his head.In the endless dust, one after another, black shadows of different shapes and sizes rushed into the light one after another; in the distance where the light circle could not illuminate, there were more black shadows like raindrops passing by In mid-air, it fell straight to the ground.
"Go back first," Siba'an pulled her up, and the two ran towards the direction they came from.In just a moment, the black shadows falling from the dome were as dense as a torrential rain; before they could run out of the dome, countless wet and smelly things fell one after another "click" and "click" On them, slide down the collar and into the clothes.
Lin Sanjiu endured nausea, covered his head with one hand, and swiped the things off his body with the other; a familiar rancid smell with a fishy smell floated into his nostrils again.
The last time she smelled this smell was on those "human figures" made up of purple and black tongues.
"It's those purple and black tongues!" She was shocked, and hurriedly shouted at Siba'an; the white light of the [protective force field] on her body appeared, and she wrapped herself again: "Be careful!"
Sibaan let go of her hand, and several lightning-like dazzling lights lit up on her body one after another, "crackling" shattered the air, jumping and shooting down several black shadows one after another.There were more and more shadows falling from his head, but he stopped abruptly, covering his head and face, and said loudly: "No, look at our feet!"
Lin Sanjiu almost bumped into him, hurriedly lowered his head, and couldn't help being taken aback.
It was true that the stench came from the purple-black tongue, and what fell out were those maggot-like black things—but to be more precise, they were their fragments.
A pile of rotten meat, fragments of broken shells, and occasionally a small piece of needle, or a bubble of unknown liquid, muddy the ground under their feet, shining like a carrion swamp.Lin Sanjiu endured the sensation of being constantly hit by the dirt on her body, and hurriedly called out the tent to unfold over the two of them; listening to the continuous "bang bang" sound on the tent cloth, she managed to catch her breath.
She lowered her head and carefully looked at the ground for a while, feeling full of doubts; when she raised her head again, her eyes met Sparan's.
"Why... why are they all mud-like pieces?" She opened her mouth, feeling that the smell seemed to have gotten into her teeth, and hurriedly spat a few mouthfuls, then wiped her mouth and asked, "Where did they come from? What are you going to do?"
If a large number of purple-black "tongues" are drilled out of the soil like just now, it may be able to cause damage unexpectedly in the dark.
Outside the flashlight, Siba'an's silhouette condensed into a sculptural outline.He took off his soaked uniform jacket, threw it away with a flick of his hand, unbuttoned his shirt and wiped his face with it, then whispered, "Don't you think these things look familiar?"
"We've smashed it so many times, of course it looks familiar."
"No, I mean," Sparan said softly, his voice barely audible over the rustling rainstorm. "...these are the things we smashed just now."
Lin Sanjiu was stunned, and looked carefully at his feet again for a while.
"You mean..." When she opened her mouth, she also felt that what she was about to say was ridiculous: "After we smashed these things, their corpses were from—from—"
She raised her head, glanced at the pitch-black mid-air, and murmured, "...Did you come down from the ground?"
"Or, it was brought down by some kind of force."
The blond man lightly kicked away half of the mutilated black strip of meat with the toe of his boot, looked at it and said in a low voice, "They're all dead, they won't move at all."
What power will it be?And why take them down?
When Lin Sanjiu was full of astonishment, Siba'an continued: "You asked me just now why the cavities are getting bigger... Then I had an idea."
"what idea?"
"These cavities must have been prepared for that thing that you and I call Queen Mother, who lives underground..." His voice trembled slightly again, as if he was enduring some trembling excitement: " In other words, it was only as big as a room at the beginning, and then it grew bigger and bigger, so it had to dig out new and bigger cavities to accommodate it..."
Even though the nervousness was anesthetized, Lin Sanjiu couldn't help but feel his heart shrink.
"You feel it too?" Siba'an sighed like a whisper, passing gently past her ears, and the breath blew her broken hair, tickling her neck: "Behind us, now there is a huge monster .”
