As the aftermath of the nuclear explosion subsided, the whole island fell into a strange silence.
Needless to say, the airship in the sky is trying to restore communication and get in touch with the headquarters, while observing the movement below nervously.
The mysterious creatures that control the whole island seem to have been seriously injured in the nuclear explosion. They are no longer able to control the black worms like tentacles in the ocean, allowing them to follow their instincts and constantly devour everything on the seabed, whether it is fish, shells, sand, coral or anything else. It looks like the most terrible nightmare in the dream.
However, as long as it does not continue to move in the direction of the human world, it is great good news for V5.
Because it can give them more research and preparation time.
After learning that the whereabouts of the landing team led by Allen were unknown, srean, located in the rear, immediately organized a professional rescue team and rushed to the accident site in another airship.
While everything was in full swing, in the deepest ruins underground, the circular fully enclosed bunker finally cracked with a crack, and more than a dozen people in protective clothing and ashen faced came out.
One of them carefully turned around with a special radiation detection instrument in his hand. He soon took off his head cover and said to the others behind him: "no excessive radioactive substances have been detected! Temporarily safe! "
Hearing this, everyone was relieved and took off their stuffy and hot protective clothes.
A marine Hunter even kicked a red worm that was crushed to death by soil and stones to vent his accumulated fear and anger.
For these people who have just experienced the aftermath of a disaster, there is nothing more fortunate than being able to breathe fresh air again and feel their heart beating.
But Alan did not give them too much time to rest. After confirming the location and direction slightly, he immediately created two large earth element puppets with the copied elements, the earth's core and the earth's essence, and dug up the tunnels that were blocked up by dirt and gravel.
Because the ability to use the mind gives it the power to manipulate the earth, the excavation progress is even more efficient than those large machines.
About ten hours or so, the team returned to the previous cave.
The only difference is that the lower organs like intestines have been torn to pieces under the violent explosion, leaving only an empty rock tunnel emitting a pungent smell.
"Are you sure you really want to go down?" The Mercenary Captain stared at the bottomless passage and asked.
"Otherwise?" Allen asked without looking up.
"I think it's enough to do this! Now the whole island has stopped moving. Maybe the unknown creature has been killed by a nuclear bomb. "
Obviously, for mercenaries, they have completed the contents of the contract and don't want to risk their lives.
In fact, not only mercenaries, but also those experts and professors have the same reaction.
Alan keenly noticed this and couldn't help smiling and shaking his head: "sorry, I never like to place my hope on some kind of luck. So anyway, I'll go down and find out about it. As for you, the original intention is naturally the best. If you don't want to come, I won't force it. "
"I'll join!"
Baudelaire was the first to stand up and express his attitude clearly.
"Me too!" Fei Jie followed.
"Hehe, how can such fun and exciting things be less than me." SISO's face showed a smile of excitement and expectation.
As a member of the small team, Baudelaire and fajie know how powerful Allen's reading ability is, and they also have the ability to send themselves and the people around them into the copy in an instant at a critical moment, so they can withdraw from the whole body no matter what situation they encounter.
And SISO, this pervert, is just looking for excitement.
But others were obviously frightened by the previous nuclear explosion and the worms that came like a tide, and finally chose to return to the surface to send a distress signal to the airship in the sky.
Allen did not embarrass each other, but also let the two element puppets dig a tunnel to the surface.
After all this, he came to the side of the huge mouth of the abyss and was ready to go down to find out.
Because he didn't know where the bottomless tunnel led, Allen directly changed into a half dragon man, controlled the air flow with the power of his wings, and slowly fell down with three teammates in the dark.
When the four came to the bottom, they found that their feet were not hard rocks, but a large piece of burnt muscle tissue caused by nuclear explosion.
Although the surface has been almost completely carbonized, there are still living parts below that continue to creep.
"Unbelievable! It's like a nightmare! Could it be that all the muscle tissue under the island is composed of such muscle tissue? " Asked fajie, trying to resist the urge to vomit.
"It must be! Look at these parts evaporated, charred and carbonized by the nuclear explosion. They are 100 or 200 meters thick, but even this can't destroy them all. I can't believe muscle tissue can have such amazing defense. If it weren't for the nuclear bomb, we might never get into this place. Those strong muscles alone can squeeze all the invaders alive. "
Allen squatted down and examined the debris left by the violent explosion around him.
In particular, the umbrella shaped pit with a depth of nearly 100 meters is undoubtedly the central point of the explosion. The use of instruments can even detect extremely high radiation content.
Without any hesitation, he quickly reminded Baudelaire, fajie and sisso to put on their protective clothes again.
Although the ability reader can resist this kind of damage to some extent, Allen still feels that the blood volume of his career panel is slowly decreasing bit by bit.
This means that nuclear radiation can indeed have adverse effects on the body.
Wearing protective clothing again, the party immediately continued to explore along the channel opened by the explosion.
There is no light at all here, so we can barely see the situation within ten or twenty meters ahead by relying on the light on the helmet on our head. We need to be extra careful every step forward.
As for the circle, it has been open from the moment it landed.
At this moment, Allen did not care to save his Qi and expanded his scope to the limit of his ability as much as possible.
After moving forward for more than half an hour, he finally reached the core of the whole island. At the same time, he also saw the semicircular sphere hanging overhead and connected with thousands of muscles and nerves, as well as the dense gullies on the surface of the sphere like the brain.
There is no doubt that this is an organ, or life, composed of millions or tens of millions of neurons.
Whether it's worms of all sizes, or the vast muscle tissue deep underground all over the island, it operates under its control.
But now, this unknown creature or organ seems to have been affected by the violent shock caused by the nuclear explosion and temporarily lost some control, just as the human brain will lose its sense of coma and balance when it is suddenly hit.
But even so, it sensed the arrival of the invaders and began to frantically mobilize the surrounding large red muscles to try to squeeze the three people to death.
Allen, who noticed this, took out another nuclear bomb with greater equivalent directly from the "magical burden skin", slammed it at his feet, sneered and threatened, "I think you should be deeply impressed by the power of this thing? Be honest! Otherwise, I don't mind blowing you up! "
"Are you sure it can understand what we're talking about?"
Baudelaire held two shields tightly and stared nervously at the large muscle groups moving on both sides.
As a martial artist, he knows very well what it means to be completely surrounded by such strong and powerful muscles.
"Of course! I'm sure this guy can not only understand what we're talking about, but also have a higher level of intelligence than humans... "
