The four underground floors are quite large. The place where the convoy came down is a U-shaped opening. Ma Tao used a detector to briefly detect it, but found nothing. The areas ahead were all solidified volcanic rocks, which once flowed magma. The solidified rock is not only strong but very dense, but as a result, it also becomes very fragile. It is impossible to hide things underground in such road conditions. The more advantageous factor is that there will be no hidden objects under these rock layers. Those laser earthworms are hidden, because it is not easy to move in such a solid rock formation. Even the head of the laser earthworm will have to be worn away after being strong and worn for a long time.
But you can still see fine sand on the road ahead illuminated by lights, and I don’t know how this fine sand appeared here. Logically speaking, it is impossible for this kind of fine sand to appear in such a geographical environment, but now this sand just appears. Being here, and there are quite a lot of them, is already very abnormal in itself, but Ma Tao no longer wants to think about these things. This island and this cave may have been formed for no less than thousands of years. What have he experienced during this period? It is impossible to find out where to verify what is going on.
Because the space on the fourth underground floor is really too big, and they don’t understand the terrain and are unfamiliar with the deep environment, it is the best and safest way to move along the mountain wall. At first, Ma Tao and the others walked towards the place where they came down from the entrance. Searching for those who passed by the north, the speed of the vehicle was not fast, and the journey lasted more than two hours. The road ahead was uneven and the ground was extremely undulating. The chariot could not move on it at all. The only choice was to get past. It's impossible to get out of the car, but the laser earthworm that you may encounter at any time is like a sharp sword hanging over everyone's head. Except for Sister R, no one is sure to dodge or resist the attack of this monster. In a dark environment, the danger greatly escalates.
When saying that it is impossible for all vehicles to pass through such road conditions, it means that the tank is definitely impassable. It also means that even if there is something hidden inside, it will definitely not be a tank, because it cannot get in. If If there is really a chariot inside, there must be other entrances and exits. It is for this reason that Ma Tao decisively gave up and led everyone to turn around and start walking back. However, the road back this time was still not smooth.
As long as there is sand, there is a possibility of being hidden by monsters. Not far after driving back, the C device sounded a rapid alarm and three lasers shot out from the deep darkness like sharp swords. This time , all the attacks were directed at Xiao Jinzi's No. 2 car, because it was too sudden, and Xiao Jinzi couldn't dodge it even with good skills. Three lasers came down, and countless armor pieces fell down. Ma Tao saw Everyone felt sorry for him.
It hurts, but you still have to fight back when you need to. There are still reserves of special artillery shells and grenades. One shell took away the bodies of the three laser earthworms and sent their souls to heaven.
After returning to the starting point, my sister suddenly stopped the car.
"Why don't you leave?"
As soon as the chariot stopped, Ma Tao, who was staring at the detector, looked at his sister in surprise.
"This place is not small. It is not a good idea to search like this. It will be troublesome if we encounter several enemy attacks."
My sister stared at the situation displayed on the screen in front and said.
Ma Tao didn't say anything. He took such a big risk just to try his luck. As the saying goes, the higher the risk, the higher the opportunity. Now their environment can be said to be very dangerous, but the opportunity can't be seen yet.
"I think there is a way I can reduce this risk."
Sister suddenly looked in Ma Tao's direction.
"any solution?"
Ma Tao looked happy when he heard this. His sister's system was destined not to lie. If he said there was a way, there was definitely a way, otherwise he would never say anything.
"I can use it"
As she spoke, her sister stood up and took off her tactical uniform.
Looking at the aircraft suspended in the air again, Ma Tao fell silent.
In fact, Ma Tao originally thought about relying on his sister's aircraft to detect road conditions, but this aircraft is part of his sister's body, and there are so many dangers lurking in the cave. Ma Tao himself rejected this method. At this moment, his sister took the initiative. When it comes to Ma Tao, I really don’t know whether I should be happy or worried.
"Brother Tao, why don't you leave?"
Xiao Jinzi asked as Chariot No. 1 parked in place without moving for a long time.
Gao Han and the others in car No. 3 didn't speak, but the voice on their behalf rang softly for a while, but they heard Xiao Jinzi's question and didn't speak.
"Let's rest where we are and be vigilant."
Ma Tao looked at his sister looking at him and replied.
The aircraft was hovering in the small space inside the car. After thinking for a while, Ma Tao sighed and finally opened the hatch of the chariot with his own hands and let his sister control the aircraft to fly out.
A miniature laser scanning system protrudes from one end of the aircraft, and then emits a green laser network that spreads out in mid-air, swaying almost 365 degrees on the surrounding walls and ground, presenting a three-dimensional The three-dimensional scanning method is very similar to the method used by the Noah monster reconnaissance disc to scan their tanks they encountered before. Subconsciously, Ma Tao turned his head slightly and looked at it, already staring ahead with his eyes open like an old monk in trance. The motionless sister suddenly had a strange thought in her mind, that is, she had seen many of her abilities on some Noah-modified objects, such as the scanning function in front of her, and the energy protection of her sister. The shield is very similar to Marshall's previous protective shield, except that the sister's shield is obviously smaller and cannot protect the whole body. But then I thought again, the sister was made by the mother of the previous owner of this body, Xiao V, specifically to protect him. The guardian robot would never do anything harmful to him. Wouldn't it be more beneficial for him to have more methods for his sister? Thinking of this, Ma Tao stopped thinking about it.
The height of this cave is quite sufficient. Although there are many stalactites on the top, the height from the ground is still about ten meters high. The important thing is that the surrounding area is spacious. You must know that enough space can ensure that you can avoid attacks. You can dodge in this position, but if the space is too small, you can only rush through by resisting the attack.
It took nearly half an hour for the aircraft controlled by my sister to return successfully. Ma Tao's heart that had been hanging around finally fell to the ground. However, he still noticed that after entering the carriage, there was a burnt black spot on one corner of the aircraft. This must have been He was attacked by something. When he asked his sister what was going on, his sister just smiled at him and did not explain to him, but Ma Tao could also guess that all her parts were made of memory composite metal. There should be no other monster besides the laser earthworm that can cause this kind of damage to it.
"Okay, we can leave. Just check your detector carefully."
After the sister finished speaking, she put the aircraft back into her body, put on her tactical uniform, and adjusted the sound of the watch on her wrist to the maximum so that Xiao Jinzi and Gao Han could hear it. Then she began to narrate, "The space here is roughly the same as mine. We have clearly seen that the overall structure of the fourth floor we are in is a ring, which looks like two O-types nested together. There are two more suspicious places. One is the place we did not pass just now, which is Directly east of us, that area is blocked on both sides. No cars can pass through it. There is nothing inside. The ground is all sand. However, we cannot rule out the possibility that there is something buried under the sand. There is another place. There is a separate area in the southeast corner of this circle, and that place is quite suspicious."
"I think we can give up on the area to the east and go directly to the separate area at the southeast entrance."
After her sister described Gao Han, she roughly formed what she called a topographic map in her mind. She believed that there was no need to explore the area in the east that was inaccessible to chariots, mainly because it was too dangerous.
"I also agree with Sister Han's statement."
Xiao Jinzi also agreed with the use of watches to express his attitude.
This guy is here to find the chariot. The enclosed area is indeed a good place to hide things. However, as Sister R said, there is no way for vehicles to go through that place. It is blocked at both ends. The semi-enclosed space can only be walked through. Since this is the case, it is impossible to hide the car.
Su Lanyu didn't say anything, but Gao Han did. They were both in the same car. After talking, Su Lanyu was not the kind of person who didn't speak up about her thoughts. Since she didn't speak, it meant that she also agreed with Gao Han's statement. of.
"Sister, please lead the way."
Ma Tao also had the same idea. This is the fourth level. It seems that this is the lowest level of the cave. If there is something, the possibility of hiding it on this level is definitely more than 90%.
The convoy began to continue exploring in the opposite direction, still traveling along the wall, but this time not far away, there was a fork in the road. One side had the same undulating terrain as the one they had seen before, and the other side extended towards Going south, my sister didn't hesitate at all and drove the No. 1 tank directly towards the branch that extended.
Although they were walking on a branch of the cave, this place was quite open. When they turned in, Ma Tao started to use the detector to detect it again. Unfortunately, there was nothing.
Sometimes luck is really important. Maybe Ma Tao and the others may have run out of luck at this time. They miraculously didn’t encounter any monsters from the entrance to here. They just turned around and it wasn’t too far away. They encountered a wave of big ones. Their three tanks were slowly exploring the ground while going in, while these monsters were heading out. It can be said that you met love just around the corner.
What they encountered were four laser earthworms and three missile frogs, a total of seven monsters, both big and small. I don’t know how these different types of monsters came together. They didn’t fight with each other, and they were completely harmonious. , but as soon as they saw three chariots that had never been seen here before, these seven monsters all rushed towards their direction.
The laser earthworm is the first to attack and also the fastest to respond.
The blue beam of light converged in the mouth of the first laser earthworm A. The next second, a blue light hit Gao Han's No. 3 CMB ambulance with lightning speed. In an instant, the armor piece of the downed tank was like Like scattered petals, they flew up into the air in flakes. This blow could knock off at least 60 to 70 armor pieces of the minibus.
My sister's reaction was not slow either. She completed the counterattack the moment Car No. 3 was attacked. Because Ma Tao had been adjusting the special magazine and never replaced it, the shot fired by her sister was still a special shell. But I don’t know how it happened. The 115T gun of the No. 1 tank combat vehicle did not make a muffled sound and then launch a grenade as before. Instead, it fired a piercing whistle and a shimmering shell passed through quickly. Passing through the space between the two, it exploded in the middle of the laser earthworm.
The sound was not loud, but it caused the space dozens of meters around the four laser earthworms to be surrounded by a layer of white gas. A cold air that made people tremble all over spread out, and the temperature in the air suddenly increased. It started to drop sharply from a comfortable environment, and in less than two seconds, my breathing began to feel heavy.
This white gas expanded rapidly. It appeared and dissipated quickly. In less than five seconds, the white air-conditioning rolled a few times and disappeared. The scene in front of me was quite pleasant. .
The four mechanical earthworms were all frozen into ice sculptures, and they were very thick ice sculptures, but they were quite transparent. Every connection of the laser earthworms inside was clearly visible, and even the area where they were located was condensed. There is a thick layer of ice crystals, and you can vaguely see a faint white air rising upwards. This is because the cold air is evaporating little by little, and the appearance of this ice also made the three missile frogs feel uncomfortable. One of them was so close to the four laser earthworms that half of its body was frozen. The other half was still struggling to free itself from the ice, but it was in vain. Yes, its body and the frozen area seemed to be fixed together.
This is the first time Ma Tao has seen the power of ice bullets. Needless to say, he knows best what special shells his tank has. Looking at this small piece of ice hell that he personally created in front of him, Ma Tao suddenly felt that he was Too cruel.
The power of ice bombs is really shocking. You can feel it from the half-frozen missile frog. Despair, panic, and painful expressions. These negative factors are all in the two missile frogs. The round eyes as big as basketballs are exposed. It can be imagined that the ice bullets are really devastating to the destruction of living creatures.
"Well done!"
This wave of attacks by the No. 1 tank combat vehicle was extremely effective. Gao Han immediately started to boast, not knowing whether he was praising Ma Tao or Sister R.
Boom~
The No. 3 vehicle's main 115T gun also launched an attack, targeting one of the two missile frogs remaining in the field.
It was also the white cold air generated instantly when the ice bomb launched by the No. 1 vehicle exploded that blocked the sight of these monsters, preventing them from attacking as quickly as possible. Monsters are monsters after all, and their ability to respond to emergencies is limited. Otherwise, the world would have been ruled by Noah's army of monsters long ago.
This shot from the No. 3 vehicle not only killed a missile frog, but also directly shook the four frozen laser earthworms to pieces due to the shock wave and sound wave generated by the explosion. The broken bodies were scattered on the ground and shattered into pieces. Several sections.
After all, the body of the laser earthworm is designed to be fragile and easy to destroy. After all, the size of this monster is separated by that. Noah concentrated all the most sophisticated designs on their heads. Except for this head, which is stronger and stronger, The other parts are really too fragile. If it were another mechanical monster, it might not be destroyed like this by an ice bomb. After all, fragile metals are also metals, right?
The remaining Missile Frog was also eliminated by Vehicle No. 2. As for the one whose half-frozen body was shattered, the remaining half of its body could only struggle for less than a day. It's only a matter of minutes. After all, the ultra-low temperature cold air has destroyed its interior through its inner tent. Although the Missile Frog is a semi-biological and semi-mechanical modified monster, it is still a living thing after all, not a fully mechanical body. For This kind of attack is still too much to bear.
After killing the monsters they encountered, Ma Tao and the others did not dare to stay in this place for long, fearing that other monsters would encounter them. After they were dealt with, my sister started the chariot to bypass the frozen area in the middle and then drove into the cave. The co-pilot, Ma Tao, sneezed and trembled as he reached out his hand and quickly turned on the heater.
Because of the ice bombs, the surrounding air suddenly dropped to a freezing point. Even if the temperature in the car was not too close to the place where the ice bombs were frozen, the temperature inside the car had dropped to about ten degrees below zero. This sharp change in temperature was still It was unbearable, not to mention the missile frog. Ma Tao felt like he was going to catch a cold, so he quickly turned on the heater in the hope of blowing away the cold air in the car as soon as possible. Not only was he sneezing, but his watch In short, Xiao Jinzi, Gao Han, and Su Lanyu were all sneezing constantly. The first thing that couldn't stand the drastic change in temperature difference must be the human nose.
However, this is an extinct volcano after all, and the temperature is still very high. It can basically maintain a constant temperature of 25 or 6 degrees above zero. Presumably, the freeze caused by the ice bombs will not last long, but it will last for several hours. There should be no problem, the frozen center should be very solid.
After the heater in the car worked for a while and they were away from the ice bombs, the temperature finally returned to normal again. Ma Tao turned off the heater. Otherwise, it wouldn't take long for the car to be filled with ice. It will change from being cold and moving to an oven.
In the watch, the frequency of sneezing was also significantly reduced, but soon, the sound of runny noses started one after another.
Continuing to move forward into the branch of this cave, finally, the three chariots came to the end of this branch.
“There is no road”
Ma Tao glanced at the lava mountain wall in front of him and then at the metal detector in his hand. At this sight, Ma Tao frowned.
what happened?
The metal detector in his hand actually showed two constantly floating coordinates, one to the left of their three tanks and the other directly in front, and one of the coordinates jumped particularly frequently.
"this……"
The next second, an incredible smile appeared on Ma Tao's face.
Two metal coordinates, two...
"Xiao Jinzi, Sister Han, hurry up... hurry up, let's use these three chariots to seal the entrance of the cave."
He almost said this in a trembling tone, because Ma Tao had already obtained from the display of the Jinhu detector that one of the points showed that there were a large number of metal objects buried underground. Judging from this volume, it was very large. It may really be a chariot, but the situation displayed at another point is relatively small, and it just jumps from time to time, which shows that there must be metal underground in that area, but there should not be much.
"Brother Tao, have we found it?"
Upon hearing Ma Tao's words, he was stuttering with excitement. Xiao Jinzi immediately realized that Ma Tao had made some new discovery.
"I'm not sure yet, but the metal detector shows that there is a lot of metal buried underground in the area in front of me."
Although Ma Tao did not directly say it was a chariot, it was because he was not convinced that they could really be so lucky to find a chariot that others had not found for ten years, because he did not believe it, but the metal detector showed Indeed, information has been given that there is a large amount of metal hidden in that area. There is no way this metal detector is fake, and Ma Tao has tested it many times, and it is indeed there.
"Then it's accurate! Is there anything uncertain about this?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Jinzi reached out and wiped the snot that was about to flow into his mouth. He didn't bother to wipe it, and was the first to move his No. 2 jeep to the side and place it across the entrance of the hole.
The reason why Ma Tao parked three tanks at the entrance of the cave was to temporarily seal the entrance. The branches of this cave are really too wide. There is no problem with three or four large trucks running side by side, but it means danger. , in such an open environment, once a monster approaches, it is easy to attack the people inside, and there is no way to block the entrance with three tanks. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
