The thunder javelin-like beam cut a clear diagonal trajectory in the atmosphere. The most important thing was that it was extremely fast. The sky suddenly became bright and dark. By the time Long Qi's eyes got used to it, its front end had already hit the boundary between heaven and earth. somewhere.
Long Qi said "Ouch": "What kind of clearing target is No. 1? Is this the clearing method? What a shame!"
"Theoretically, there is no need to travel 300 kilometers."
"What?"
Long Qi didn't understand Tiger's words. But he has his own set of logical judgment methods: "Is it a single shot or a continuous shot? One shot into the soul, or..."
Since the era of distortion, no matter what kind of attack method, range or accuracy, it is the icing on the cake. The final "destructive power" is the most direct measurement indicator. Otherwise, when facing distortion, even armor and defensive force fields will not be able to defeat it. What’s the point of wearing it?
Before he finished speaking, in fact, about four or five seconds after the beam penetrated the air, a slight vibration was felt on the ground. You can't actually feel it on a bumpy off-road vehicle. But Long Qi was able to capture such details from the water ripples in the side swamp area he just passed.
Long Qi uttered a curse word, then just increased the accelerator, the wheels ran through the mud, and rushed towards the coordinates.
The vehicle-mounted brain faithfully conveys the information from the Tiger Communicator: "Target No. 1 has been cleared, the three types of pollutants have overflowed, and the environmental disinfection operation is being prepared. Please enter the work station in time;
"The fortress has entered cruise mode, and target No. 2 is being defined.
"Multiple threat responses in the detection range have been determined, and manual identification is being carried out."
"Again, workers should enter their workstations promptly."
The tiger showed no obvious reaction.
Long Qi pretended to open his mouth, originally wanting to complain, but in the end he didn't say anything.
The cluster of dark blue walkers flying in the sky and the thunder javelins they threw inevitably made his judgment more cautious and his thoughts dive deeper.
Even though the processes and some of the nouns here are confusing, you can still vaguely touch an unknown giant - not a rough type that grows wildly, but grand, powerful and rigorous.
Just like when he left the wilderness in his early years and entered a large city for the first time, he didn't care much about the tall buildings reaching into the sky and the endless flow of pedestrians and vehicles. He just felt that they were just another manifestation of order in the wilderness.
However, when he entered the laboratory and transformation factory of Quantum Company, he watched the energy and resources from the city and the wilderness being silently swallowed up by the steel behemoth that was half protruding from the ground and half sunk in the soil, and followed step by step. The program combines the machines, modules, and even people into a system, and finally combines it into an intuitive and powerful force, demonstrating the incredible power that is comparable to the extraordinary level nest in the wilderness, and it can also be copied continuously...
It was probably from that moment that he lowered his head and accepted the transformation of the Burner while already awakening. The purpose is to tap into and utilize the power of a high degree of order and regulation that can seemingly be replicated and grown indefinitely.
The thoughts I had when I was a teenager seem a bit naive now. But this is probably the aesthetic understanding of power that Long Qi has in his mind.
Therefore, when he smelled a similar feeling at this moment, the thorns in his heart closed up consciously or unconsciously, and he remained silent - the kind that breeds anticipation.
The distance before entering the workstation is quite daunting.
The area around the cave is actually the area around the poisonous swamp area. The terrain is swampy and the four-wheeled driving equipment is not particularly suitable. Fortunately, the car driven by Long Qi had been adapted and equipped with support modules, allowing it to glide briefly in the swamp area. In this way, the off-road vehicle bumped and bumped, ups and downs, and finally within fifteen minutes, it entered the area marked by the coordinates...nearby.
The cluster of dark blue walkers in the sky had already disappeared at the end of the sky.
The tiger looked sullen and in a bad mood.
"This is really not right... Ha!" Long Qi had already slowed down the speed of the car when he spoke, and then made another sharp turn to avoid the grinning black figure that jumped out of the mud.
It was a toothed crocodile, an atypical one.
On the gray-black scales stained with muddy water, the usual granular strips lost the texture of hard objects and turned into soft bodies like abscesses. When attacked, they spontaneously exploded, forming suspicious juices. Water mist.
And its attacks were weak, and it could only struggle for life in the muddy water if it missed a hit, and soon lost its sound.
This is not the first time they have encountered a similar situation. The surrounding area seems to have turned into a highly toxic and polluted area. The poison is very violent, and even relatives are not recognized.
I don’t know how many mutants were infected along the way, struggling in madness and weakness.
This is not normal wilderness ecology.
Of course, any fool would know that something was not normal just by looking at the scene in front of them where the smoke was still lingering and the sound of beeping and popping in the atmosphere continued.
"The distance between here and the cave area is... thirty-four kilometers." Long Qi read out the readings on the on-board brain, "This is basically the core area of the Poison Swamp Area. It used to be."
Tiger rested his elbow on the car window, holding half of his face, and said in a hoarse voice: "This method is reminiscent of Zaodao."
"Algae Island?" Long Qi didn't think of it at the first time, but it took him two seconds to realize. "That long-distance experiment was the first one that caused a lot of confusion in the Poison Swamp Area."
He also thought of more, including some rumors: "Tiger, you seem to have gone there for field research?"
"No, at best it's a temporary leap, before the official arrival at the Leichi Experimental Site."
"Algae Island" is a well-known aberration nest that Ronan directly destroyed in the name of "Blood Ring Fortress Remote Experiment" in order to allow the Leichi Laboratory to enter the river.
It was that blow, and of course the entry of the Leichi Experimental Site, that caused the Great Golden Triangle area to remain in turmoil. The "burrow" thing can be regarded as the aftermath of the subsequent impact.
"parking."
The tiger issued a clear instruction, and it was indeed no longer suitable to travel by car. Long Qi stopped immediately, but did not turn off the engine. He only went down with Tiger and walked towards the still restless area ahead.
There are also some deformed species with similar symptoms to the toothed crocodile just around, struggling and eager to move. However, wherever the tiger passed by, the extraordinary aura overwhelmed him. Not to mention being tortured to death by the violent toxins, even if he still had a little strength, he would still be able to crawl forward.
Long Qi arrived in a hurry and was not in armored condition. Of course, he had to follow closely at this time and did not dare to leave for a moment.
But it was also because he followed the tiger so closely that his field of vision was a little narrow. It wasn't until the man in front suddenly stopped that he realized and looked around.
About fifty meters ahead, there was an area filled with smoke and steam. It seemed like there had been a wildfire just now. The surrounding bushes and shrubs were still burning, and most of the beeping sounds came out like this.
It's just that the smoke screen steaming in this area is probably not a problem of insufficient combustion due to the humidity of the swamp. In the core area, there is an obvious depression there, which must have been created shortly after the explosion. The swamps on all sides are still slowly flowing back, filling part of the height difference, but it is not completely buried.
And in such a highly humid and viscous area, while bubbles of mud are appearing, there are also fires coming out from deep in the mud. It seems that someone has ignited the coal seam buried under the mire for a long time, and it will continue to burn like this for the foreseeable days...
Huaicheng used to produce coal, but obviously it couldn't be such a coincidence.
Long Qixin had some speculations in his heart, but of course he still had to look at Tiger's opinion at this time.
Just listen to the tiger say: "This should be one of the most typical poison sources around the poison swamp area."
"oh?"
"This poisonous source has long been in a symbiotic state with the surrounding aberrations, especially the Tooth Crocodile Corps."
"Yes, this kind of terrain is very similar."
Whether it is bubbles or fire, it proves that there are a large number of cavities under the strata. The greatest possibility is that it is the masterpiece of the "Architect of Disaster" like the Crocodile Corps.
However, Long Qi is still unsure about a few issues.
"You said this is a lair? Extraordinary level? Which nest species is it? I remember that there seems to be no extraordinary level lair or abnormal species in the Poison Swamp area..."
"It's not originally. This is just a poison source environment, not a nest. But the more different it is, the more difficult it will be to deal with it."
"Ah, that's right."
The Tooth Crocodile Corps is like this. There are no extraordinary individuals, but with above-average individual combat capabilities and extremely excellent group patterns, they can gather and disperse at will and are highly mobile. Even if this kind of aberrant group is just a "worker ant" and "soldier ant" under the extraordinary bosses of the Golden Triangle, it is still extremely troublesome.
As for the poison source environment... it is even more elusive.
Its basic ingredients may just be a hallucinogenic mushroom in the underground network space constructed by the Crocodile Corps; or it may just be toxins accumulated over the years in the swamp mud. Looking at it alone, it really doesn't seem like much, but thousands of these ingredients come together to form a "poisonous swamp area."
In this area, there may only be a "concentration" difference, but there will be no "center". Moreover, as the aberrant population continues to migrate, infect, and mutate, it continues to expand its sphere of influence and deepens the level of toxin penetration, making everything more complicated. It is impossible to trace the source and find the so-called "thread and root" that solves everything.
But now...
"How did he do that?"
The tiger didn't answer and continued walking forward.
Long Qi hesitated for a moment, and once again complained about his stupid behavior of coming in a hurry and not wearing armor, but in the end he followed the tiger closely and entered the depths of the burning smoke screen.
Every foothold here is likely to explode with poisonous pulp bubbles and even weirder-looking fire. Two incompatible elements coexist here...perhaps in a fierce struggle.
It seemed highly dangerous, but Long Qi became more and more comfortable as he walked.
Because he discovered that the fire burning inside may have a slight deviation in nature, but it is basically based on the "Format Fire" and has the special features after the integration of the Eye of Knowledge and the Blood Ring Fortress. stipulation.
