Chapter 436: Food
At 10:25, the sky brightened, and all the weirdness between heaven and earth disappeared, only the undercurrent was still surging under the deep sea.
Lin Xian and his team members set out from the underground base, flew over the sea at high altitude, and flew towards the central urban area where the Infinity was located.
"Unica No. 1."
"Feeding ground. No wonder there is no one to be seen on such a big island, not even zombies. Could this Uniga No. 1 be the world-class giant ocean god?" Ning Jing analyzed at this time.
"That's pretty close. This also explains how the Holy City Organization's massive decoy bomb attracted the monster. This means the Great Ocean God's activity area is within this area of several hundred kilometers." Lin Xian, wearing power armor, flew at high speed in the front. He looked at the black waters below and suddenly changed direction: "Let's go somewhere else."
"where?"
"Neptune." Lin Xian said calmly: "If I'm not mistaken, this Falcon Sea Group has many secrets."
Rumble~
Although it was already daybreak, the weather was extremely gloomy today. It seemed that a storm was coming. Thunder kept rolling above the clouds. This reminded KIKI of what happened yesterday.
"No wonder the radiation levels in storms here are so high! It turns out it's rain vapor from the evaporation of submarine thermonuclear vapors!"
"That makes sense."
KIKI frowned and said to Lin Xian with some concern: "Lin Xian, now that I think about it, could the eruption of the Garan volcano also be related to that Uniga No. 1?"
"I'll have to ask someone else about this."
"who?"
"Ryan," Lin Xian said, "he seems to have quite a few insights into submarine volcanoes."
KIKI heard the intention in Lin Xian's words, so she stopped asking questions and the group crossed the west side of the island directly and flew towards the sea where the Neptune was docked along yesterday's navigation direction.
"That monster caused such a huge tsunami yesterday. I hope this group's boat didn't get overturned."
Lin Xian whispered that his worries were right. Before he got close, he could already see the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier docked in the middle of the sea from afar. A large amount of material debris was floating around the aircraft carrier under the convolution of waves. A large supply ship had capsized, and many small aircraft were busy on the sea. It was obvious at a glance that the situation was not good, considering that this happened yesterday.
The port side deck of the Neptune revealed a hideous scar in the morning light. On the tilted runway, Ryan was directing the mechanical team to continue rescuing supplies. The flight crews of Erica, Azir and others, as well as several large ships of various types, were trying their best to get the supply ship back on track. For this purpose, almost all members of the Falcon Sea Regiment were dispatched.
"The surge is getting stronger! Throw down the spare anchor chain!"
On the deck, the original plantation was almost completely destroyed. A group of survivors were clearing the twisted wreckage of the arresting cable. At this time, Vanessa, who was sitting on the edge of the watchtower and operating the mobile terminal, raised her head. The small anti-enemy radar beside her ear responded and quickly captured the target.
"Ryan, you were right, they are coming."
After saying that, Vanessa immediately jumped down from a height, stepped on a strange wave, and then landed smoothly. On the other side, Ryan came over with sunglasses, followed by Geddie and Erica.
"It seems that they have come into contact with people from the Holy City."
Wow!
The shrieking sound of thrusters pierced the sky, and Lin Xian and his seven companions plummeted from the sky and landed directly on the deck. Seeing the devastation around them, Lin Xian removed his mask and asked, "Are there any casualties?"
"A lot of people were injured. A tsunami this big is no joke." Ryan raised his sunglasses and smiled at Lin Xian. "As expected of a Sword Master, our reconnaissance aircraft detected that monster launching an attack on the west coast, and you are surprisingly safe and sound."
Bang!
Suddenly, a cable that was towing the supply ship in the distance broke, and it whipped into the sea, splashing up a ten-meter-high wave wall.
Seeing this scene, Ryan's expression suddenly changed: "Geddie, Vanessa, help."
"good."
"No need." Lin Xian saw the situation when he came and immediately signaled to KIKI with his eyes.
"I understand." KIKI smiled slightly, and immediately flew into the air, flying directly above the overturned large supply ship. The surging supernatural light in her eyes flashed, and she raised her hand directly, and the terrifying mental power instantly grabbed the entire supply ship. Then she exerted force suddenly, and the supply ship immediately made a metallic buzzing sound. Then the tugboats and aircraft all felt that the towing progress was accelerated. The supply ship kept making a grunting sound, and then began to get out of the overturned state.
A few minutes later, with the help of KIKI, the capsized supply ship finally righted itself, and a large amount of seawater flowed back down.
"Thank you." Ryan saw this scene and shrugged at Vanessa and the others. "Sometimes combat power is not everything. Telekinesis is indeed powerful. That monster scared us all yesterday. It was like a cosmic beast. Our aircraft carrier looked like a paper boat in front of it."
"Then you are very lucky. Do you know why I came to see you?" Lin Xian said.
Vanessa, Geddie and the others looked at Lin Xian with different expressions.
Ryan smiled slightly: "Are you ready to cooperate with us?"
Lin Xian shook his head.
Ryan's smile froze: "Then what is your purpose?"
Lin Xian raised his finger and pointed at Kiki who flew back: "As you can see, I saved your lives."
Ryan looked at Lin Xian hesitantly: "What do you mean?"
"Why do we need you to save our lives?" Erica behind Ryan looked puzzled: "Excuse me, Captain Lin, we are not the ones trapped on the island now."
"Then why don't you leave here, knowing that Mount Garan might erupt."
Lin Xian's eyes were as dark as water as he scanned the core members of the Falcon Sea Group. "Is it for the crystal lattice, for the forbidden object, or for the thing under the island?"
Ryan's expression changed when he heard this, and he looked at Lin Xian: "Have you been to the outlying island?"
"By the way, let's get rid of the people in the Holy City." Kiki crossed her arms and raised her little face to him and said, "This place has a lot of secrets. Do you know anything?"
Hearing this, Vanessa and the others glanced at Ryan. Ryan's expression froze slightly, and he was silent for a moment, then his eyes fell on Lin Xian.
"If it's convenient, let's talk inside?"
"good."
In the bridge information room, Ryan said to Lin Xian, "We already know about the battle between you and the people from the Holy City in the city yesterday. I'm sorry that we didn't help because the situation on our side was very bad at that time."
Lin Xian nodded: "I guessed it."
The giant ocean god appeared, and the surrounding sea area was basically like hell. Even from the current situation, it can be seen that if this sea group had not been lucky, it would have been wiped out yesterday.
Ryan continued, "I knew you would come to me. After all, you probably wouldn't believe the nonsense I said before about hunting blood spirits."
"Then you know why you said that."
"Because of distrust." Erica behind Ryan said bluntly: "To be precise, we are not sure whether you can survive."
"Do you know what the Holy City is doing?" Ning Jing asked with a frown.
Ryan shook his head and smiled, "I don't know the details, but I've already warned you that the Holy City is targeting you."
"I didn't expect them to make such a big move," Vanessa said. "To be honest, if the surveillance cameras we set up in the city hadn't captured you, we would have thought you were all wiped out by that monster."
"How is that possible? Our Infinity is so powerful!" KIKI immediately retorted.
"That's right, we are not afraid of a mere demon!" Brother Huo also stood up and said.
Ryan glanced at everyone and finally landed on Lin Xian. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Lin Xian looking directly at him and said, "If I'm not mistaken, you stopped here not just for hunting, but for other reasons."
"yes."
Ryan nodded. "The Neptune's power system was severely damaged in a battle with a strange body a week ago, so strictly speaking, we are anchored here. Fortunately, we are not far from Haiyan Island."
"Fortunately?" Lin Xian raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "Are you sure this is good news?"
Ryan shrugged. "It's better than being stuck in the depths of the Pacific Ocean with nowhere to go. We have aircraft and other ships available, but we really don't want to give up the Neptune."
Lin Xian's eyes fixed, and he said in a cold voice: "Mr. Ryan Xian, I said, I am here to save you, so I hope to hear a more truthful answer."
Ryan's expression froze when he heard this. He looked at Lin Xian and asked tentatively, "Captain Lin, how are you going to save us?"
"It seems to me that you can't repair the Neptune in a short time, and the time is not enough. Or are you planning to take the remaining five ships and the small submarine you hid underwater and run away now?"
Ryan's expression finally changed when he heard this: "Why is there not enough time? Do you know that the Garlan Volcano can no longer be controlled?"
Lin Xian nodded, then pulled out a small detector from his bosom and said to him, "I also know that you have a taboo. Your ship is well-stocked, and you're still cooperating with the black market in the lattice business. I guess it's related to this, but I don't care about it. I just want to tell you that there's a device under the island. It's because of that device that many abyssal sea monsters have gathered in the waters around Haiyan Island to have a party. There's also a giant ocean god here. I think we may not have 24 hours before the entire Haiyan Island is submerged."
"Take this message as my goodwill. If you find it useful, I hope it can help you." After Lin Xian finished speaking, he immediately stood up and prepared to leave.
Lin Xian actually discovered quite a few things when he came here yesterday, but he didn't really care. Now that he thought about it, he guessed that Ryan was just as Erica said, being wary and wary of them. Most importantly, he was probably worried about getting into trouble. After all, the conflict between them and the Holy City didn't seem to have Lin Xian, the Swordsman, as the number one target.
"etc."
Ryan called out to Lin Xian, who calmed down and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
"After 24 hours, has that introducer become so unstable?"
Lin Xian looked at him: "You really know."
"Of course I know." Ryan looked at Lin Xian and told him a surprising news: "I used to be affiliated with the Foundation, that submarine base, which was considered... a special security department."
"Are you from the foundation?" KIKI asked immediately.
"Before." Ryan said: "I have no relationship with that organization now. Can I be considered a former asset?"
Lin Xian glanced at the group behind Ryan: "They?"
"They don't count, only me," Ryan said.
Lin Xian asked at this time: "What else do you know?"
Ryan looked at Lin Xian and said frankly, "That's an experimental base. I only know that they are breeding and luring some strange creatures for experiments, but I've never seen it and don't know the content of the mission. However, every time the device stops, a large-scale seaquake will occur in the surrounding sea. Then countless strange creatures will float to the surface, and the stench will be everywhere. The storms are accompanied by a large amount of radiation, which is somewhat similar to what happened yesterday."
Lin Xian frowned: "So you really want to get the blood essence?"
Hearing this, Ryan looked at Erica behind him. Erica raised her hand silently, and the mechanical gate on her left arm slowly opened. In an instant, a dark energy wave that made the air instantly sticky emerged. Lin Xian and others suddenly changed color, feeling a strong energy from the forbidden object.
He looked over and found that Erica took out a copper ball that looked like a water valve from her mechanical arm. It was only half the size of a palm. When this thing appeared, Lin Xian found that some tiny things seemed to be attracted to it around.
"We call it the Dark Energy Copper Ball. Its characteristic is that it can quickly absorb substantial dark energy and blood essence within a certain range, but the side effects are significant..." Erica immediately put the copper ball back, then breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Because the dark energy concentration is so high, people nearby will easily be pulled into a mutated state."
Lin Xian, KIKI and others all changed their expressions when they heard this. Lin Xian immediately understood why Ryan was so cautious.
Even if he possessed such a forbidden object, he would not easily expose it to the outside world, not to mention that Ryan was facing Lin Xian, the swordsman with an elite team.
"No wonder you took such a risk."
Lin Xian stared at Ryan. "You've been to that base before, so are you planning to take this forbidden item on a dangerous quest for wealth and glory?"
Ryan responded with a headache, "God, that was indeed the plan from the beginning. For the sake of lattice evolution, the fourth-level blood essence is worth a try, but the situation of the Neptune, the Garlan Volcano, and those people from the Holy City... I can only say, it's bad luck."
"Unlucky? You are so lucky." Lin Xian and KIKI's eyes met, and both looked at Ryan with an expression of disbelief.
"You want to snatch the blood essence from the giant ocean god's mouth?"
"Not exactly." Ryan said helplessly, "It's just that I didn't know that Uniga 1, who was monitored by the Foundation, was such a terrifying guy."
Lin Xian's face changed when he heard this, and he thought that Ryan was simply crazy.
He looked at the calm face of this guy and didn't know whether to praise him as a genius or a lunatic. He was holding such a powerful forbidden object, but he actually thought of snatching food from the mouth of a world-class ferocious beast. Is this an idea that a human can think of?
