Alien Relic Hunter

Chapter 249 Reaching the Tiankeng
At twelve o'clock, the tail and bottom of the "Greek" began to emit blue flames, the support cantilevers on both sides of the dock slowly opened, and the 82 anchors used to support the hull were unlocked at the same time—"The front area It is cleared, please follow the laser-guided route to leave the airport." The voice of the airport controller came from the control tower, and the "Greek" began to accelerate gradually, and the two green lasers fired along the control tower flew towards the outside.

"It's really stable." The hound glanced at the receding dock and the command tower on the live screen. Although the "Greek" was accelerating, the people sitting in the empty ship restaurant could not feel any vibration at all. Not even an iota of water was spilled from the full cup.

"I just checked the information of the 'Phantom-class' high-speed airship. In order to allow passengers to enjoy the most comfortable journey, 70.00% of the cabins inside this airship are suspended structures. Four large anti-gravity devices control, even if the hull is directly hit by a missile, as long as the shell is not penetrated, even if the entire empty ship turns a somersault in the sky, the cabin can still be kept in an absolutely balanced state." Layton said, "Nowadays many All large warships are designed in this way to minimize the impact of the external environment on the crew during fierce battles... But the cost of this thing is very high, so it has not been popularized in the civilian field."

"It's good to be rich." Ivan said, silently taking a sip of the 96-degree "water of life".

"Okay, it's time to get down to business." The hound casually picked up a corner of the tablecloth, wiped the sauce from the corner of his mouth, and then looked at Ke Lan.

"Spiritual attack." Ke Lan nodded to him, "Those crazy relic hunters, they suffered a spiritual attack under the tiankeng."

"When I tried to use Alpha language to 'communicate' with those patients, they all showed very strong reactions without exception... It can be seen that Alpha language is likely to be the stimulus for their onset, that is, this A carrier of mental attacks." Ke Lan continued.

"If mental attack is an alpha language, people like me can't hear it at all, so why would it affect those crazy people?" Zoligetu asked a little puzzled.

"We also can't hear infrasound and ultrasonic waves, but this doesn't prevent us from making them into weapons." Layton crossed his arms and said solemnly.

"But it is precisely because ordinary people can't hear it," Ke Lan nodded, "so this spiritual attack is as strong as a sonic weapon, and it has a strong concealment. At the same time, it also has a certain delay—the Patients often only notice the abnormality after a few days, and then they are quickly swallowed by nightmares."

"Nightmare? Are you saying that this kind of mental attack creates a nightmare in our heads and scares us crazy? So... the nightmares they had before they went crazy are the key?! "The hound reacted quickly, and instantly grasped the keyword "nightmare" in Ke Lan's words.

In the information provided by ACMS_0420, it was also mentioned that these crazy hunters were completely insane and suffered from nightmares... But in the eyes of most people, nightmares are the most serious thing that can make people fall into nerves In a weakened state, it is simply impossible to drive a normal person completely crazy in just a few days.

Ke Lan said: "Yes, the main reason why these hunters go crazy is indeed because of nightmares, but the nerve attack from the tiankeng does not create a brand new nightmare, but digs out the most feared things in people's hearts and embodies them Transformation, and infinite magnification... I roughly counted, those hunters with serious psychological shadows are basically the first batch to fall into madness."

"Then does this mean that as long as you are more courageous, you will be less likely to be affected?" The hound glanced at Layton, "Should someone with a weak brain like a big guy be completely immune to this kind of mental attack?"

"Nearly half of the relic hunters who came back from the tiankeng were not affected at all...I didn't have time to investigate these people one by one." Ke Lan picked up a drop of sauce on the plate with a fork and dripped it into In a glass of clear water, the dark brown sauce suddenly smudged in the water, forming a cloudy mist, "I'm not sure whether these people are not crazy because their mental health is better, or because they Because they weren't under psychological attack at all."

"Ke Lan." The hound came across Ke Lan, looking straight into his eyes. "If it's you, do you think this kind of mental attack will be effective for you?"

"I don't know, but I think there is a high probability that it will not have an effect."

"why."

"It's like I had a nightmare. If there is a voice in the dark telling me that this nightmare will come true in the future, I may half believe it, but if Layton comes to me and tells me that this dream will become reality, then I will I just feel that his brain is convulsing—I can understand Alpha language, so I can use my own consciousness to fight against it." Ke Lan paused, and continued, "So, I decided, during this exploration operation, , I will be the vanguard."

Pioneer, this is the most important and dangerous position among relic hunters. In a hunting group, only the most experienced and agile elites can take on this role. The tallest in the team.

If it is a temporary team, the hunter who is the vanguard will have the priority to choose the spoils by default.

"If you think it's okay, then I have no objection." The hound said, although Ke Lan is not the top one among them in terms of skill or experience, but he has the ability to understand the alpha language and stop time. He is undoubtedly the best candidate for the pioneer.

"Those who can work more get more", this is a principle that most hunting groups will follow.

……

The speed of "Greece" is much faster than that of the Amran-class transport aircraft. In less than ten hours, they have brought Ke Lan and the others to the area where the two relics of "A-087" and "S-018" are located. over the sky.

Almost one-third of the previous majestic glacier has disappeared. As for the original entrance of the A-087 ruins - the black crack is completely gone, replaced by a huge The edge of the tiankeng is a nearly vertical cliff formed by solid ice, extending into the bottomless darkness.
