Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 369: Underground

The machine gun continuously blasted out a storm of fiery bullets, occasionally two micro guided missiles were fired from under the spider-shaped chassis, and even a small ion cannon rose from the hunter's shoulder. An ion beam blasted out from time to time, creating a violent explosion in the corridor. The hunters can be said to be full of firepower, pouring all their strength into the incoming alien without reservation.

Allen couldn't help but be thankful that he didn't bump into the full-fire mode of the mechanical guard in the power room, otherwise it would not be so easy to take it down without damage. However, with this kind of powerful mechanical guard, the imperial guard responsible for protecting the queen can fight five against one, one can only imagine how powerful it is.

The mechanical guard is very powerful, but in the end there is only one. Even with full firepower, it can't stop so many aliens. Edward yelled: "Alan, lend me your fire."

Allen immediately urges the source power and engraves the floating life. With a single finger, Qian Jun sprayed a fire dragon at Edward. Edward clasped his hands together, and the air flow between his palms turned, forming a whirlwind in an instant. The whirlwind was suppressed by his palms, and it did not spill out of the palms. As soon as Allen's fire dragon arrived, the wind and fire combined to form a fiery foehn. Edward's eyes froze, and he pushed his palms away.

The unrestrained Fanfeng continued to grow, and eventually enveloped the entire passage. The wind helps the fire, and the fire grows with wind and power. With the combined abilities of the two, the strange-shaped larvae ignited one after another in the area where Foehn passed by, turning into fireballs in the passage.

Many of the Faceless Ones born from the combination of the queen and the imperial guards were burnt until their shells turned red and cracked. More huddled together, turned like discs in the Foehn, whizzed past the hunter's fire blockade, bounced into the air, stretched their hands and feet, and then rushed towards Allen and others.

While still in the air, suddenly several criss-crossing black lines flashed, but it was Belmode's chain blade. The chain blade entangled a faceless man, Belmode pulled both sides, and immediately tore the faceless man into pieces in the air, turning it into pieces of blood and raining down.

The other faceless men were bounced away by a sword light across the sky. In mid-air, a thin crack appeared at the waist. The crack widened in an instant, and in the end, these faceless men were cut in two. At the end of the sword light was Regis who was holding a long sword and slashing iron.

With the momentum of wind and thunder, most of the alien larvae were killed, as well as the faceless man who acted as the striker. But under the hunter's gunfire, the depths of the corridor were full of shadows, and the geometry was unknown. Allen cut out a flash of fire to block the road, and yelled for everyone to evacuate. Although Lucy was unwilling to have the opportunity to use the communication system to contact the earth, she was helpless. If you stay and don't leave, let the aliens break into the control center, then everything will be over.

She can only pray that these aliens don't destroy the control center, and there will be a chance in the future. Fortunately, the aliens were not interested in the cold machines. Except that the hunters who fought against them were finally torn apart by the aliens that rushed up from behind, they passed by the door without looking at the control center and continued to chase Allen and others.

The team ran desperately in the base, this time there was no hunter as a guide,

But Lucy had already written down the floor plan of the base just now, so there was no need to run around like headless chickens. Lucy showed the way, and the team headed towards the weapon warehouse. There is a sealable space, whether it is taking out weapons to strengthen firepower, or isolating the pursuit of alien weapons, it is of great use.

However, these alien weapons seem to have a huge will controlling their actions, making them not only act in unison. And he knew how to divide his troops to intercept, and gradually, Alan and others were forced to leave the original route and advance towards the depths of the base.

Rushed through a corner, followed by alien pursuers. The faceless ones not only run on the ground, but they can also move around the walls at will, like a flexible gecko. Allen, who was in charge of breaking the back, turned around and slashed away with a flash of fire, cutting off the two faceless men who were chasing close. However, this is nothing more than stirring up a few insignificant waves in the black tide, and the alien weapons seem to be pouring out. The sheer number of them is simply maddening.

As the team continued to move forward, many alien shapes suddenly rushed out from the corner in front of the corridor, and suddenly became a front and rear attack. Lucy shouted: "Run forward, there is a safe passage ahead!"

There is nothing worse than being intercepted back and forth by alien weapons. Fortunately, they have not yet reached the end of the road. Fortunately, Lucy was able to memorize the terrain of the base in a short period of time, otherwise their fate can be imagined. After knocking open the door of the safe passage, Lucy first looked up. The stairs leading to the upper base were blocked by falling rocks, and only the passageway down was blowing a cold wind.

So they had no choice but to run down the stairs. At this time, Allen looked back, and the alien weapon had come to the edge of the passage gate, but that gate seemed to be an invisible boundary. The alien weapon didn't dare to take a step beyond the thunder pond, and just stayed on the sidelines. But the faces of the faceless men were crowded outside the door, but Alan's idea of ​​forcibly breaking through was dispelled.

That's no different than suicide.

This chase made everyone gasp for breath. Fortunately, the alien weapon didn't catch up, so they had time to rest. The team was resting in the passage, and Allen sneaked up to take a look again. The alien weapon did not leave, so he had no choice but to come back.

"It's like driving us to hell," Allen said.

He said it casually, but Lucy nodded and said, "I'm afraid it's true."

"Could it be that……"

He and the girl blurted out at the same time: "Queen!"

Allen then smiled wryly: "I'm afraid it's true. Not only is the queen not dead, but she's still quite active now."

The others were confused, but only Edward could understand what they meant. The Maritan boy closed his eyes and said: "You should have noticed just now that the actions of the alien weapons are so consistent, it is almost like an army. Since there is an army, there is a commander. What is more suitable for this role than a queen?" character, and in the chase just now, the alien weapon had at least three or five chances to intercept us."

"But they didn't make a move, they just drove us here."

"In the end, they stayed on the top and then came down. Why, because the bottom is probably already the queen's territory?"

Hearing these words, everyone's hearts sank. Lucy frowned and said, "Why did the queen force us here? If it just kills us, it can completely order the alien weapon to do it."

"I'm afraid you can only ask that big reptile about this question." Allen shook his head and said, "Let's go, since the queen wants to see us. Just let's kill it."

"Action without plan." Edward shook his head.

Allen made a "please" gesture: "So how can you get out from above?"

Edward opened his eyes, and said calmly: "If those adventurers are here, maybe I can find a solution. But now, I can only accompany you for a while."

"Sometimes, it's okay to break the situation with strength. I don't know if our strength is enough..."

"If you don't have enough, you have to fight again, unless you want to die here." Allen patted Edward on the shoulder, and walked forward with the knife in hand.

Everyone looked at each other, and naturally no one planned to stay, so they left behind Allen. The lower staircase of the passage broke halfway, and below it was a slope made of chaotic rocks. Allen swung a thousand times, and the heavy knife was wrapped in flames as a torch. Looking down, the place where the firelight reaches is full of ups and downs. Mud, stone, metal, and parts piled together to form a rough ground.

Allen jumped first, followed by the others. They went all the way down the slope and finally reached the ground, but in front of them was an empty, secluded and far-reaching pitch-black space. If it weren't for the low slopes made of piles of chaotic stones under the firelight, it would almost make people suspect that they had come to a void space.

I don't know how big this underground space is, and Allen doesn't know where to go for a while. At this time, the sound of rolling stones suddenly sounded in the darkness. Then, at the edge of the fire, two figures flashed behind a low slope. Allen and the others thought they had bumped into the Faceless Man again, but a familiar voice came from the opposite side: "Is this Your Excellency Allen?"

"Mr. Garner?"

After a while, Kano came over with Hongye. The two of them were very embarrassed, especially Hongye, her breath was weak and her face was like gold paper. It seems that it is supported by will alone, but the body is almost unable to support it.

"Why are you here?" Garner asked.

Allen said helplessly: "We were driven down, it's really hard to say."

After hearing this, Kano described the appearance of the Faceless Man and other aliens. Allen nodded, and Garner smiled bitterly: "It seems that our experiences are similar."

Only then did Allen realize that there were only two people left in Garner, and he frowned and said, "Your companion..."

"They've already been eaten." Kano said bitterly.

Judging from Jiana's description just now, they not only bumped into the Faceless Man, but also encountered the guards. From this point of view, their luck is indeed bad. Jiana sighed: "After we left that hall, we thought we were safe. We were planning to find another escape route, but unexpectedly encountered those monsters like women again. I had to run away with Hongye, and this time I ran, I ran here Come."

"Mr. Allen, I don't know if you have a feeling. Those monsters don't seem to intend to kill us, but just drive us here."

Allen nodded, and until now, he didn't want to hide it from him. He said: "We suspect that the Queen asked them to do this."

"Queen?"

"That is the source of the blood of these monsters and their creators. I thought the monster was still sleeping, but judging from the current signs, the Queen should have awakened."

Kano said in a deep voice, "You all knew what would be here from the beginning?"

"I only know a little more than you. The rest were discovered after entering here." Allen shook his head and said, "You should accept my suggestion at that time."

"It's a pity that even if you want to regret it now, you can't do anything about it." Jiana smiled bitterly, and said again: "Who are you guys, and why do you know about this ruins?"

"About that, now..."

At this moment, several dull roars suddenly sounded from the dark underground. Then the ground trembled slightly, and something approached in their direction!
