The giant rusty iron gate was half open, like a bottomless dark gap, or like a devil's mouth grinning with ill intentions.

Xia Chujian came to the side of the door and made a gesture. Xia Chao's body immediately moved to the front of the door. A heavy defensive shield was switched out from the mecha and firmly supported the ground.

Xia Yu slid silently to the side of the crowd, holding an instrument in his hand. The instrument emitted a faint blue light in the rainy night, quickly outlining the contours of the space behind the iron gate.

It was a vast, empty world with no heat signals, no vital signs data, only a dead silence.

"Safe." Xia Yu reported in a low voice, but there was a hint of confusion in his tone.

"However, the structural scan shows that there are large, irregular heat source residues here, and they are cooling rapidly. It's... very strange."

Xia Chujian's heart sank slightly.

Yes, it was too quiet, abnormally quiet.

Besides, if there really are no living creatures here, then where does the large irregular heat source come from?

She whispered to Xia Xiong, who had already entered and occupied the commanding heights, "Xia Xiong, report the situation inside."

"Nothing unusual. Just rain." Xia Xiong's voice came from above, still calm.

"Advance." Xia Chujian suppressed his doubts and gave the order decisively.

Xia Chao kicked out and swung the heavy shield in his hand, slamming open the half-open iron door.

The iron gate made a sharp, shrill sound of metal friction, which caused a huge echo in the empty city, but was soon drowned out by the deafening sound of heavy rain.

Xia Chujian, Xia Yu, Xia Rao and Xia Xi followed closely behind.

Bright lights lit up on the mecha helmets, like several sharp white lightsabers, suddenly piercing through the heavy rain inside the city and the black fog that spread along with the heavy rain.

Wherever the beam of light passed, a tragic scene unfolded before everyone's eyes like a scroll of hell.

There is nothing left inside the huge city.

Not far from the entrance, there stands a huge building made of unknown materials and randomly piled up.

There was another altar, similar in appearance to the previous one.

Scattered around it were hundreds of mummified bodies, or rather, things that had once been human.

Like the altar outside, these people were scattered stiffly on the muddy ground around the altar in a posture of extreme pain that could not be described in words.

His limbs were twisted to the extreme, his face frozen in the last moment, in the extreme horror that was about to burst out.

The clothes had long disappeared, and the skin had taken on a strange dark green and shriveled color, as if all the vitality and moisture had been drained away in an instant.

And in the center of the altar, a huge, indescribable "meat creature" was slowly wriggling.

Isn't this life?!

Xia Chujian whispered to Xia Yu, "...Why didn't you detect any vital signs of this thing?"

Xia Yu's voice was also confused: "I don't know either, but my life detector does not show any vital signs of this thing."

Xia Chujian wanted to ask more questions when she saw Qilu type another line of naughty graffiti on her eyepiece display.

[Qi Lu]: Master, this thing is not a regular life form. The Beichen Empire's life detector cannot detect its vital signs.

Xia Chujian: “…”

Well, it seems this thing is not a serious thing.

It is like a huge organ turned inside out.

The surface is covered with a slippery, sticky, translucent purple gelatinous film.

Beneath the membrane are countless tumors that are pulsating wildly, constantly expanding and contracting, like gaping mouths trying to breathe.

There are still some limb fragments that have not been completely absorbed at the edge of this big mouth.

For example, a child's head with a flower on it, and a child's calf half covered with a blue skirt.

As if it still had life, it kept floating and struggling on the surface of those glioma mouths, and then was pulled into the depths of those mouths faster by an invisible force.

The smell in the air is indescribable.

It seemed like a mixture of the blood of a thousand-year-old execution ground, the stench of deep-sea fish that had been exposed to the sun for ten thousand years, and some kind of fermented sweet, disgusting stench, so strong that it could almost make people faint.

Even their second-generation mechas seemed unable to block the stench.

On the eyepiece display screen, the data on the air pollution level continued to rise and was about to break through the critical value.

"I can't stand it anymore..." Xia Xi's voice sounded behind Xia Chujian, accompanied by a violent retching sound, and the light beam on the helmet shook violently.

Although they couldn't smell anything, they couldn't suppress the urge to vomit when they saw this scene which was more horrifying than hell.

"Hold on! Open fire!" Xia Chujian's shout was like thunder, instantly dispelling the nausea and discomfort that was almost uncontrollable in everyone's hearts.

Without the slightest hesitation, his well-trained reflexes overwhelmed his instinctive fear.

In an instant, the night sky of the city was torn apart by beams of energy that crisscrossed the sky!

However, it didn't have much effect.

The altar in front was penetrated again by Xia Chujian's plasma energy beam, but it did not cause the high-temperature burning and incineration effect like before.

Those wriggling tumors seemed particularly solid.

Because He was only punched through a hole, but from that hole, more spores split out and were about to escape in all directions.

"Switch to conventional weapons! Increase firepower!"

Xia Chujian gave the order again.

At this time, she felt that the plasma sniper was no longer suitable.

The filth here needs fire, real fire, to be truly cleansed!
