When Xie Tianlang landed steadily in mid-air, everyone on the helicopter, besides being amazed and impressed, truly understood that Fu Guiyuan's words, "Ordinary people and ordinary combat personnel should not participate," were not an exaggeration.
Song Feng looked down at Xie Tianlang, who was moving with ease between the huge fissures in the ground, and smiled after a moment: "Although I have also gained more than ten times the attack power of an ordinary person, with Captain Xie and Fugui here, we really don't need to waste any more time."
"Xiao Liu, send a message to have another helicopter come and pick us up. All we need to do here is for Sanchuan to stay and receive signals and messages. We can't do anything here, so we'll go to where we can help and are needed."
Liu Yi, the mechanical genius of the second team, stopped questioning and arguing, and quickly carried out the captain's orders while still tightly clutching the owl feather in his hand.
He did want to stay and see how his idol and the rising star fared, but he also knew what was important and what was urgent.
However, another member of the second team, who joined later, asked, "Team Leader Song, only two of them went down. Are they really not needed for follow-up support?"
Song Feng glanced down, shook his head and smiled: "It looks like there are only two of them."
"But in reality, they are comparable to a million soldiers."
It wasn't the sheer number of soldiers—a million strong—that mattered in terms of actual combat power, but rather the sense of security that those two would never fail once they made a move.
If humans can be considered top-tier weapons, then these two are probably the human-shaped heavy weapons that China has made to demonstrate to international powers that it will "never be used first unless absolutely necessary."
Song Feng was amused by his own thoughts, but after thinking about it, he realized that there was absolutely nothing wrong with them.
"Let's go, we just need to focus on doing our own things well."
"The two of them can definitely handle this."
As Song Feng and Hu Wen's second and third doomsday rescue teams left one after another, Owl Fugui was already crouching on the edge of the bottomless Fengxian giant pit, waiting for Xie Tianlang to arrive as he leaped down from the sky.
Xie Tianlang landed about 500 meters away from the giant crater.
This place is actually not far from the giant crater; under normal conditions, it would only be a three-minute walk.
However, this seemingly trivial matter has now become a terrifying one where a single misstep could result in complete annihilation.
Xie Tianlang landed between two huge fissures in the earth, and the once wide road has now been split into countless "cliff pillars" of all sizes.
From the sky, those gaps leading straight to the ground don't seem that big, but when you actually land here, those gaps become so wide that it's uncomfortable. The road that originally gave people a sense of stability now looks like a log bridge connecting two mountain peaks and a canyon.
In addition, the moment he landed, Xie Tianlang sensed a violent, negative energy that was invisible to the naked eye and was bound to affect people's hearts, causing them anxiety and fear.
Xie Tianlang raised his eyebrows, peeked at the crack in the ground at his feet, and then sped up, moving and jumping swiftly like the protagonist in an adventure game across the unstable path divided by the crack.
For ordinary people, taking a single step can cause fear, leading to hesitation and ultimately amplifying that fear and creating a negative emotional cycle. But for Xie Tianlang, it's like a safe game of hopscotch, and all that negative energy...
Fear is probably a rare emotion that he lacks by nature.
When Xie Tianlang was only ten meters away from Owl Fugui at the edge of the giant pit, the ground suddenly shook without warning as soon as he jumped up. In those ten meters, the ground he used as a foothold suddenly collapsed and turned into rubble that fell into the abyss.
Xie Tianlang: "..."
Owl Fugui clucked and laughed beside him: "Oh ho~"
After six worlds, this guy is still as unlucky as ever!
Xie Langren glanced at Xin Shangyuan, who was gloating and had no intention of helping, and lamented that he might have a low status in his family in the future. Then he directly made the energy in his body flow and gather, and then performed a trick for Owl Fugui, stepping on his left foot and using his right foot to get into the sky.
Owl Fugui's laughter stopped abruptly, then he angrily flapped his wings: "Such an unscientific thing is possible?!"
Xie Tianlang burst out laughing, jumped to the edge of the giant pit, hugged Xinshangyuan in his arms, and gave him a pat. "Isn't the most unscientific thing you are?"
"Alright, how do we get down now? Even if it's just the two of us jumping down, we can't guarantee our safety. If we're using a rope, do you have enough ropes in your space?"
When Xie Tianlang mentioned space, a subtle expression appeared on Owl Fugui's round face. Although his face was covered in fur that most people couldn't see, how could Xie Tianlang, a fanatic for spotting round things, not notice it?
"Is there a problem with the space?"
Gou Fugui turned his owl head.
"Rather than saying there's a problem, it's more accurate to say... it has evolved."
"It's better to let you see it directly than to talk about it, but thinking about it this way, with me here, I can probably guarantee your safety 100%."
Xie Tianlang raised his eyebrows; 100% safety is not something that can be easily claimed.
Since his daughter Yuanyuan was able to say it like that, it means she's basically capable of doing it, so that space...
"Can it hold living creatures now?"
Owl Fugui tilted its head up and down, blinking its round eyes: "I knew your imagination was just as wild as mine. Bingo~"
Xie Tianlang laughed out loud: "Ever since the second world, I've wanted a space where I could raise chickens, grow crops, and raise fish. Now you've achieved your wish."
Owl Fugui fell into a subtle silence at this moment.
"Raising fish is fine."
Raising chickens and farming—his little world didn't even include land.
Although life doesn't necessarily require soil to be born, for a pure-blooded person of the Great Huaxia Kingdom, not having land is a major deficiency.
Fortunately, it was his own little world. After the apocalypse ended, he could just go around digging up soil and putting it into his own little world.
This shouldn't be considered undermining our own planet, right?
"Well, anyway, I can still put you in there if there's danger. I have wings, so even if this giant pit leads straight to the Earth's core, we can still make our way through it."
"But how are you going to get down? The slope of this giant pit is almost like a vertical cliff jump. I don't have the strength to grab you with my claws and land."
Xie Tianlang twitched his lips, pulled a dagger from his waist, and jumped into the bottomless pit. Midway down, he spun around and plunged the dagger into the pit's earthen wall, slowing his descent.
Of course, constantly using the dagger to slow down was also very tiring. Xie Tianlang asked Fugui for mountaineering equipment, secured the climbing spikes, and began to descend using the rope.
Because each lock can be remotely controlled, there will be no shortage of rope.
Therefore, the descent process went relatively smoothly.
However, this smooth progress began to encounter problems when they descended to a depth of 700 meters.
The once extremely wide crater began to shrink, and noticeable ground tremors began to appear around it. Just as Xie Tianlang was once again remotely unlocking the top rope's locking mechanism, preparing to begin the next descent, the unexpected ground fissures and tremors started again.
Unlike the surface of the road, which was merely riddled with deep fissures, the tremors deep within the giant crater were extremely dangerous and terrifying—
Xie Tianlang's original climbing spikes all came loose and fell, and he lost all his footing and was about to fall straight down.
The owl Fugui, who could fly with wings, was not in much better shape. Suddenly, a strong wind swept through the giant pit, carrying stones of different sizes and weights that hurtled towards Fugui from all directions. In an instant, both Fugui and Xie Tianlang were in danger.
Such underground tremors are probably why Huazhou was unable to fully investigate the true situation of the giant pit in Fengxian County even after seven days.
The giant crater and the underground tremors looked exactly like a major earthquake, but its essence was still the "collapsed doomsday gate".
Even though worlds are not completely interconnected, the power to completely destroy each world, even though it has been largely reduced through the Gate of Doomsday, is still terrifying enough.
"Yuanyuan!"
Xie Tianlang leaped onto a large rock that was being lifted into the air by the gale during his fall.
Although Owl Fugui was being tossed about by the rocks and the gale, and was momentarily unsteady on his feet, he made a magnificent spin in the deep sky, and the rocks that were hurtling towards him disappeared.
Upon closer inspection, Xie Tianlang discovered that two steel plates had appeared out of thin air on the owl's wings, and the stones had just struck these two steel plates.
Just as Xie Tianlang was about to praise Xin Shangyuan for his wit and bravery, a light, like a shooting star, flashed across the giant pit, which was mostly covered by darkness.
Xie Tianlang instantly locked onto the distinctly different light and leaped across the boulder toward it. At the same time, Fugui, the owl, suddenly let out a cry and flapped its wings to chase after the light.
"Grab that thing!! My gut tells me it's important!"
"It's most likely a fragment of the collapsed world's core!"
Unlike the core fragments of the Colossus World, which shattered due to energy but carried vitality and power, the core fragment that just passed by like a meteor carried a violent, dark, and deathly power.
That is probably the source of the persistent giant pit in Fengxian County.
