Chapter 255: Where the Gods Fell (Part 1)
Something happened? ...
Something big happened?!
This is the third day since he took over this base! !
Even the practical? I messed up before I even passed the practice stage... I will definitely be scolded to death by the teacher when I go back——
No, wait a minute, maybe he won't be able to come back alive?
Is this good news or bad news?
The person in charge of II-3 base, Pingzhe thought while wiping the sweat off his forehead. He was a rather round fat man with round-framed glasses on his face. When he gave orders with trembling hands, even the tremor in his voice was particularly clear.
"It's the Earth that's coming. One team will continue to hide the fruit in the depths. The command room will contact the nearby legions and then open the isolation device. The rest of the people... will desperately delay time before the legions arrive!"
"receive?!"
Well-equipped teams rushed towards the invaders.
There’s still time… There’s still time!
The area where the Legion is active is very wide, not far from the II-3 base. They only need to delay for five minutes, no, even two minutes or so before they can get support!
Pingzhe, the head of II-3 base, comforted him like this, and he even patted his chest to encourage himself.
Then? When he raised his head, he saw? All his teammates who had just rushed forward shouting slogans and rushing aggressively, fell to the ground wailing in pain.
The new head of II-3 base, Ping Zhe: "..."
He pretended to be calm, took off his glasses and wiped them, and when he put them back on, he saw the intruder, the god [Earth] who suddenly attacked the II-3 base.
Just like the love story, the god named "Earth" seemed to be connected to the land under his feet at all times. He had no feet, but instead there was mud and sand flowing below his calves, and the skin above his knees was dry and cracked, like a field that had been dry for a long time, with cracks one after another, breaking with every breath, and falling silently in the air.
He was wearing a torn black windbreaker, the hem of which fluttered in the wind. In the shadows, something seemed to be breathing. Five hollow brown spheres suspended around him were spinning silently. The pattern on the front looked like some kind of eyes, looking straight at Pingzhe.
Or rather, the wall behind Pingzhe?
[Earth] silently stepped over the blood-stained ground, and his dark blood-red eyes looked past Pingzhe and toward the wall behind him.
“…Where is He?”
[Earth] seemed to have not spoken for a long time, and his voice was low and hoarse, as if there was a stone stuck in his throat? .
It was a simple and straightforward sentence, but it made Pingzhe's scalp tingle instantly.
"That's a [fruit? Fruit?], a first-generation intelligent AI! Not a god like you!"
Not knowing where he got the courage from, Pingzhe shouted loudly.
The next second, a huge roar that seemed to shatter even the soul sounded from behind?
The wall fragments splashed in all directions and flew past Pingzhe's ear, leaving a bloody mark.
Pingzhe could feel his heart stop beating for several times. Behind him, the invisible wall was smashed by a yellow-brown hollow sphere, revealing the dozen or so researchers screaming in fear and a silver-white metal sphere suspended in the sky.
It was suspended and rotating, with a cold metallic sheen on its surface and purple light flowing through it like an electric current from time to time.
It overlooked all the tragic situations in the base, and looked silently at the gods on the ground.
Did Pingzhe hear it? [Earth]'s hoarse and cold voice sounded.
"...【Time and Space】, you have become like this."
The silver-white metal ball at a high altitude was vibrating slightly, as if it was saying something silently.
And then? , hurried footsteps suddenly sounded.
A figure appeared above the Earth at some point, and kicked across the sky with such force that one could even hear a sharp sound of the air being broken.
[Da Di] didn't even turn his head, but simply raised his hand, accurately grasped the other person's ankle, and then, with a clean backhand movement, threw the man out like a kite with a broken string.
"Wow, that's so cold."
The young man adjusted his posture in mid-air and landed lightly, smiling and saying, "Me? I've wanted to ask you a long time ago, is Liu Hai really your true form?"
Halfway through his words, his body tilted slightly, and several blood-red blades condensed between his ten fingers. With a few "swishes", they turned into blood-red light and shadows, flying towards the distant [Earth] at such a fast speed that only afterimages could be seen.
When he finished speaking, he saw that the ten blood-red blades he had just thrown out stopped in front of the Earth, and he could not help but sigh with regret.
[Earth] did not look at the strange boy who appeared not far away. He looked silently at the blood-red blade that stopped in front of him. The strange and weird aura... made him a little concerned.
After a moment of silence, He raised His right hand, grasped a blood-red blade in His palm, and then He closed it tightly, causing tiny pieces of crystals to fly in the air.
He sensed the power within.
It is not human, but it is not a [god] either. It is something unknown and strange.
But can we postpone it for now? What we need to deal with now is [Time and Space].
[Earth] turned sideways again and threw the blood-colored chip remaining in his palm onto the ground.
Then, he walked towards the silver-white sphere again. Although he had no feet, the sound of his steps was clearly audible, steady and powerful, and an invisible sense of terrifying oppression spread wildly.
Chu Xiuyan, who was in high spirits after just provoking someone in the distance, said: "?"
No wait, you're just ignoring me?
He was so angry that he wanted to rush forward again, but was stopped by Pingzhe who sneaked over at some point.
"Don't go. Do you know how dangerous it was just now? Fortunately, that Earth didn't take it seriously. I'm afraid that in its eyes, we are like ants. Attacking us is just like tickling. Only other gods of the same level can attract its attention." Pingzhe kept muttering, pulling Chu Xiuyan to run away. "You want me to say that we have delayed for more than three minutes. We have tried our best. Let's run from now on. Anyway, the legion will take care of the rest..."
As for why [time and space] suddenly became the research object of their base, he didn't have the ability to study it in detail, so he let the bigwigs above think about it.
But before Pingzhe could run a few steps, the boy he was holding suddenly grabbed his collar and asked word by word: "Me? An ant?"
Pingzhe looked at the pair of angry eyes and had a bad feeling. He quickly explained: "That's just a metaphor, just a metaphor!"
Chu Xiuyan didn't listen at all and shouted, "Me? I'm not an ant! No! I am!!"
Pingzhe was sweating, wondering which family brought this child here, and comforted him: "Okay, you are not, you are not. Can we go now? [Earth] usually only hunts down other gods. If you don't block the way, it is highly likely that He will not attack humans, so we still have a chance to escape."
At this point, if it weren't for the fact that the child in front of him was young, he would have run away by himself by now.
But to Pingzhe's surprise, Chu Xiuyan turned around without hesitation, his tone was firm, "No, I want Him to admit that I am not an ant, and then pull his bangs off."
Pingzhe: "...I? Apologize? Alright?! Stop staring at the word ant?! And why did you touch Daichi's bangs? My hands felt so weird!"
At that moment, the urge to complain? Completely suppressed? The thought of running away.
Chu Xiuyan waved his hands, "You don't understand, because I also went through this phase when I was young. I thought everyone else was an ant and I was the only one who was the strongest. I had this kind of arrogance, so when I encountered a similar situation, I felt so embarrassed that I wanted to beat the other person up."
Pingzhe wanted to say something else, but the boy turned his head again and the smile was gone from his face.
"Why do you still have something to say... to me? I'm a little busy right now. Whatever you want to say, just stop for a moment, okay?"
Pingzhe's pupils shrank slightly, and the hand holding the boy suddenly froze, as if he had lost control. He just stood there stiffly, letting the boy break free easily, and then? Watching the boy happily swinging two long knives and rushing towards the [ground] in the room not far away where the silver-white sphere was?
...What's with those eyes?
Scarlet, an eerie hue that resembles blood.
It can actually change from black to scarlet in an instant. How scary!
Is this a new technology developed by the headquarters?
But those people’s eyes…are clearly not that scary!
Feel,
It feels more like...
A strange [God].
Pingzhe's body trembled, swallowed? Swallowed saliva, and his whole body felt cold.
…
Chu Xiuyan has started? Gray fog, a large area of spreading thick fog? Densely packed with strange beasts emerged, their scarlet eyes were open, and some of their bodies, or some parts of them were surrounded by wisps of gray fog, terrifying and weird.
The beasts made of gray fog stomped on the ground, leaped from the sky, and even attacked the Earth from all directions without leaving any blind spots.
Chu Xiuyan had no intention of holding back.
He was almost delighted to see that the Earth, which had its back to him, had turned around, and the aura that was rushing towards him became more fierce and violent.
Various forms of gray fog beasts roared, their fangs flashing coldly, biting fiercely at the skin of the Earth, but the next second, they exploded one after another, turning into clouds of fog that filled the air, and then? They re-condensed and held the target's body with their fangs.
Although it lacks attack power, it is annoying enough.
Chu Xiuyan blinked? Blinked, and the next second the ground beneath his feet instantly cracked, and countless sharp earth spikes shot out from the ground like sharp arrows, pointing straight at him.
Familiar means of attack.
Chu Xiuyan dodged it easily.
But the next second, a heavy pressure rose from his feet, and he could no longer move.
It was a very strange feeling, like I was stepping on glue, and I couldn't jump even if I held my breath.
Chu Xiuyan continued to try to lift his feet, and the Earth was shrouded in gray fog, and walked over with an expression that was definitely ugly even though his face could not be seen.
"What is this power?"
[Earth] spoke coldly.
Chu Xiuyan did not answer. When the two sides were close enough, he suddenly turned into gray mist and flew into the air. "Didn't expect that I could fly!"
He landed on a wooden table and regained his human form. He picked up the knife again and excitedly stared at the ground a few meters away. His desire to fight had never been so strong.
But at that moment, a silver-white chain suddenly came from the sky, wrapped around his waist and abdomen, and then suddenly tightened and quickly retracted in the direction it came from.
Chu Xiuyan: “???”
"Wait, me? I'm not done yet aaaaaaaa—"
The boy's screams still echoed in the sky.
[Earth] watched as those crazy and hoarse fog beasts disappeared. The gray fog around them also quickly dissipated. He could still vaguely sense that strange and bizarre aura.
He turned around and saw what seemed to be silvery white waves rising and falling silently at the edge of the sky.
