Chapter 179

The aircraft hovered in the air like an isolated island.

Due to more delays than expected, several people in the aircraft had missed the moment of dusk and had to wait for the next opportunity.Behind the protection of the aircraft, they closely monitored the ground, watching those horrifying eye grasses swaying with the autumn wind.It wasn't a pleasant experience, but they didn't dare to let the "eyes of the earth" out of their sight easily, nor did they dare to descend to a height where they might be attacked.

They waited in fear for more than ten minutes before Luo Binhan finally looked at Wanbozi with peace of mind.The previous situation was too hasty, and it wasn't until now that he really saw the details of the other person's appearance, and noticed that her clothes were unusual: at first glance, it looked like a dress made of light gauze, but there was a layer of faint Light, even though the owner of the dress is sitting still, the long silk-like sash is still fluttering like light smoke.

Wanbozi supported his face with his palms, quietly immersed in his own thoughts.Poppa was settled on her lap, looking back and forth contentedly.In this weird situation, the little robot is happy as if he is in heaven.

After a long time, Wan Bozi finally showed his face, and said softly: "Let me sort out a few things... Are you here alone? No backup?"

"It's almost like this." Luo Binhan said.He reckoned that the backup in Wanbozi's mind must at least be the regular army.

"How many of you don't know the reason here?"

Luo Binhan simply shook his head.Joel Farman added: "We know that the residents here have all been replaced by bugs. There is a creature similar to the Tarvoa arthropod consciousness here."

Wanbozi paused and said: "No, the outside is just a layer of painted skin, its real body is underground... I know that Patama will come to me sooner or later. He is from the central city, and he will know the truth at a glance. It was you who came to know that. Right now, the foundation of the Azure Dragon’s Golden Armor has been destroyed, and it is difficult to last for a long time, how can this be a good thing?”

Luo Binhan looked at her with his mouth wide open.

"Why are you looking at me like this?" Wan Bozi asked.

"It's okay, it's okay." Luo Binhan said, "I just suddenly feel that your way of speaking seems to have changed."

"Oh," Wan Bozi patted himself on the face immediately, "I'm sorry, I couldn't help speaking with my hometown accent when I was upset. Are you better now?"

Luo Binhan nodded repeatedly.

"Then let's continue talking about this matter... I came here the other day to find some materials that need to be accumulated over the years. Unexpectedly, the residents here seem ordinary, but they can't stand the insect repellent medicine on me at all. I knew there was something wrong with this place. Later I also heard strange noises from this mountain, so I came to find out, and followed the sound into a mountain. The belly of the mountain was empty, and the pillars went straight to the center of the earth. The strange thing is that it is not hot inside, and it has been cooled for a long time. The dead mountain. I probed deeper and deeper in it, passed the olive surface, until I saw the mystery behind the mantle. It turned out that the pulp pool there had been completely extinguished, and all that was left were ashes. The fire was eaten up by a giant worm, and its body filled the inside. I knew that this was a big deal, and I wanted to send a message first, but I didn't want to disturb the monster, so I got trapped halfway through my escape. I knew it was difficult After getting away, he planted a green dragon-eating armor among the rocks, and then swallowed the black ice pill to stabilize himself, waiting for someone to come to rescue him. The gold-eating armor is violent in nature and specializes in swallowing gold, and it happened to be able to counteract the giant insect. You have to hold on to it. Unfortunately, once today is over, you won’t be able to use it anymore.”

Wanbozi sighed disappointedly.Luo Binhan glanced at the other two listeners and found that they were listening very intently, as if they had no objection to the words, which made Luo Binhan feel a little out of place.

He quietly leaned over and asked Joel Farman, "What is she talking about?"

"Big bugs." Joel Farman explained confidently, "There are big bugs that eat people underground. We are in danger now."

This is a practical understanding.But Robin Han felt that he might need a more realistic and detailed explanation.

"You said there was a worm in the ground," he repeated. "What else did it eat? Ground fire?"

Wan Bozi began to worry.After thinking hard, she said: "Okay, I think another explanation is more suitable for you - some kind of collective creature has invaded this planet, they are different from the Vortaya arthropod consciousness group, and they are more like protozoa in shape, and they also Don’t eat the usual food of carbon-based organisms. The planet’s surface biosphere simply isn’t enough to provide the energy they need, and they need energy and mass on a larger scale—more mass.”

"Like fire?"

"Such as radiation elements, magma, and the center of mass of the planet - it has eaten up the core of the planet, leaving only some too inactive residues. It was swallowing up the mantle at the time, so I swallowed the blue dragon The golden armor is on the bottom, let them check and balance each other, and compete for the reactive substances. It has low ability to capture elements locally, so it has not been close to the coverage area of ​​the golden armor in the past. But it is different now, transporting me out of the ground will Break the root of the gilt-eating armor, and it will be absorbed in no time. And when the assembled creature no longer needs camouflage, it may tear the entire crust in two!"

After saying these words, Wan Bozi immediately hugged Popa, resting his chin on its head and panting continuously.

"I'm still not used to speaking in the Common Grammar of the Alliance," she explained weakly. "I have to take my time. And I haven't moved for too long. Do you have water and food?"

Only a few berries from Joel Farman remained in the craft.Popa grabbed them in front of Wanbozi, and lovingly patted her face.

She swallowed the berries, and announced, somewhat ruefully, "This place is out of order. We're leaving now."

That's sensible advice, but low feasibility.Luo Binhan looked down at the ground again, and saw those eyeballs were still looking up at them, swaying slightly as if they were inviting people to approach them.Just over half an hour later, they had fully spread, covering the entire valley with lush greenery.The pitch-black blades of grass mixed with the cloudy white eyeballs, like many dead fish floating in the black waves.

He didn't dare to make eye contact with those plant-like organs, not because they were scary, but because he was afraid of seeing a familiar eye in the black tide.He also didn't want to take the craft elsewhere for the same reason.Yuanshitai Town, Bone Blue City, every human settlement in this world... What are those places like now?
A thought suddenly hit him.He asked Wanbozi: "What will happen to that lake? If something underground crawls out, does it mean that the passage will also be destroyed, and the two worlds will be separated forever?"

That was the result he was sincerely looking forward to at the moment, but Wan Bozi's expression was very hesitant.

"I don't know about this... I measure the behavior of this insect, and it seems to be a monster in the market, called the 'Insect of Ten Thousand Insects'. Once its pupa is broken, it can turn one into ten thousand, and turn ten thousand into one, killing It is endless, causing endless harm. However, no living person in Yunzhong City has witnessed the details."

Wan Bozi hugged Popa dejectedly, and never mentioned anything about "ten thousand worms".Luo Binhan was almost sure that she knew the millennium prophecy of the savages, but neither side was willing to take the initiative to talk about it.

They gradually stopped discussing and quietly waited for the next dusk.It was an anxious time, and at the same time so tediously boring that Poppa began to re-do her hairpins one by one, and Joel Farman leaned back in his chair and yawned.

Luo Binhan was still watching the bushes of eyeballs below.At this moment, the fear has gradually faded from his mind, and what is more is a kind of hazy comprehension.He secretly thought about many fragmentary facts: Yale Liga asked him to collect information, Li Li reminded him that the volcano had ceased activity, the savages' prophecies that would continue for thousands of years...all these seemed to point to an unchangeable trend, but There are some things that he can't figure out.Strong confusion and irritability made him rub his eyes subconsciously.

"What's wrong with you?" Joel Farman asked.

"I'm thinking about who should be held accountable."

Luo Binhan said: "Have you ever thought about why the bug crawled out at this time, instead of waking up early or late?"

Wan Bozi said sadly: "That's because the Azure Dragon Armor is about to wither..."

"Yes, because the Azure Dragon Armor is gone." Luo Binhan interrupted her, "But why is the Azure Dragon Armor gone? Because we woke her up, so we did it."

"We didn't know there were big bugs in the ground." Joel Farman protested.And Popa held Wanbozi's arm tightly, as if announcing that it would wake up his friend no matter what.

Wanbozi patted its head and said, "It's God's will, I don't blame anyone."

Luo Binhan is not a pious supporter of libertarianism, but this time he felt strongly that the whole thing had nothing to do with mysterious fate, but a pair of invisible black hands.He asked calmly: "It is true that we woke people up, but how did we know to come here to wake them up?"

"You discovered it." Joel Farman pointed out.

"Yes," Luo Binhan said, "then please listen to the next question—who the hell ordered me?"
