Chapter 785: Giant Beasts Fighting
Lu Weiyi was personally responsible for the migration, and Xu Sa didn't know much about it.
"Someone should be stationed here. We have worked so hard to build this base. We..."
“Bang!”
The huge tremor caused Lu Weiyi's whole body to shake on the sofa. Ning Yuan next to him was not much better than him. Xu Sa, who was standing, was caught off guard and fell directly onto the coffee table.
"Fuck..." Covering his stomach that had hit the corner of the table, Xu Sa hissed and looked outside, "What's going on?"
"Could it be an earthquake?" Ning Yuan quickly stood up and walked out, waving to the orderly to investigate the situation.
Li Dongsheng, who was packing upstairs, came down with a backpack on his back. Liu Rui, with sleepy eyes, called Xu Sa's name with a panicked look on his face. The brothers Gu Qingyue held hands and were alert.
"What's going on?"
Lu Weiyi shook his head. His mental power had already circled most of the underground city, but he didn't find anything unusual.
At this moment, the ground shook again, and several people barely stood firm, all with solemn expressions.
“I’ll go…”
"I will take people to check the situation, and you send the gathered people away first." Ning Yuan had a bad feeling in his heart. He interrupted Lu Weiyi's words and signaled Li Dongsheng to leave immediately.
"Be careful, and notify me immediately if anything happens." There were enough psychics left in the base, and Lu Weiyi had to leave in person. He turned around and walked in another direction with Li Dongsheng.
When I arrived at the door, I saw several team captains waiting there, and they were also asking about what had happened.
"Let's go check what happened first, and we'll talk about it in detail later," Lu Weiyi said.
"Okay." The few of them knew that now was not the time to talk, so they listened to Ning Yuan's instructions and investigated the situation in different directions.
Due to the increase in radiation intensity, Lu Weiyi did not lead people on the ground, but went directly to the shore through the escape passage inside the base.
The team of tens of thousands of people were all aware of this and did not show any emotion. However, they could feel the base shaking every once in a while. The intervals were not regular, but it was unsettling to think that it could cause such a big commotion.
At first, some people were asking what it was, but slowly there was only silence. Anxiety spread among the crowd. When Lu Weiyi sent the first group of people away and came out to pick up the second group, he saw Li Dongsheng standing at the front of the crowd and pacing back and forth anxiously.
"Captain, the base..." Li Dongsheng saw that he had come out of the passage alone, and the thousands of people who followed him in were gone. He wanted to speak anxiously but because there were people everywhere around him, he held back and pulled people to the side, "It seems like we were attacked."
"?" Lu Weiyi, "Which base is so ignorant of life and death?"
He immediately thought of those people who still refused to leave.
"No, it's..." Li Dongsheng pointed to the sea, "The mutant creeper told me that there are big guys fighting in the sea, not far from our base."
Lu Weiyi glanced at the hair that was wrapped around his head. The little plant noticed his gaze and hid in its hair.
"Its rhizome is too large and cannot be shrunk. It is still on the island." This also allowed Li Dongsheng to know some of the situation outside. It was a pity that it was just a plant after all, and it was impossible to distinguish the species of animal.
"Given its size, I think it must be big. I just sent someone back to inform Ning Yuan and the others." Li Dongsheng looked at the people waiting behind him and silently asked Lu Weiyi whether they should go back or continue.
As he spoke, his feet trembled again, and he could even hear a buzzing sound coming from the passage, like the buzzing sound when huge waves hit the base not long ago.
"Continue" These people won't be of any help if they go back, and they might even be a hindrance. It's better to send them away as soon as possible.
Li Dongsheng nodded and asked again whether he should stay.
"No need". If something really happens, he won't be the only one who matters.
Lu Weiyi quickened his pace, and after sending this group of people away, he breathed a sigh of relief.
After checking with Zhuang Mingxu and finding no difference in the number of people, Lu Weiyi chose to return to the base in a depressed mood.
However, when he stood on land, he immediately understood what the so-called hugeness of the mutant creeper meant.
In the distance, where the sea and the sky meet, countless tentacles are rolling around, and the densely packed suction cups are as tall as an adult man. They are flexibly bent and coiled, and occasionally the length of the fish that protrudes out of the sea surface can reach hundreds of meters. Wrapped up in it is a fish of similar size. The distance is too far, and Lu Weiyi can only see the smooth skin constantly undulating, and it is difficult to identify the species.
But as the two continued to roll, the entire sea surface was heaving, like a precursor to the formation of huge waves.
The members of various bases who had been hiding underground on the shore now gathered together to watch this amazing scene. Some people even carefully took out their cameras to take pictures. It was unknown how they managed to keep the cameras.
"Captain Land, that's a squid..."
Someone noticed Lu Weiyi and wanted to ask something, but then Lu Weiyi dodged and flew low towards the island.
"This... is an SSS-level superpower?" The person who spoke was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth for a long time as he watched the other person fly away as if riding on air.
"I heard that there will be spiritual bodies appearing at the SSS level, similar to an energy body," someone explained and then asked, "What is that thing? The size must be... several hundred meters."
"There aren't thousands of prayers."
"Have the mutant creatures in the sea grown this big? Will they attack us? Should we... take the opportunity to help?"
“…”
"It's better... to run away for your life."
A trembling voice sounded, and everyone looked and saw a spindle-shaped head emerging from the sea in the distance. Its huge eyes were like those of a prehistoric beast. Covered by its countless tentacles was a huge shark. Its cracked teeth were so sharp that several of them were broken immediately after one bite.
Taking advantage of the gap in the tentacles, the giant shark left the tentacles, turned around and jumped out of the sea, and slapped the mutant squid's head with its powerful tail. The two giants fell back into the sea, splashing waves.
"Are they...closer to the shore..."
As the sound fell, the Yuebanwan Island visible to the naked eye seemed to have suffered a heavy blow. The side standing on the sea collapsed, and the defensive wall several dozen meters high fell with it. A thick tentacle slowly stretched out from the water, and with the leisurely manner of a hunter, it swiftly explored the sea area on the side close to the shore.
A huge shark whizzed through the near sea, and the bridge that had been painstakingly built in Yueban Bay was broken apart from the connected islands like a child's toy by the impact. It flew into the air and was thrown far away by the tentacles that followed.
When Lu Weiyi landed on the island, all the psychics in Yueban Bay were already busy.
The previous impact caused cracks to appear in the walls of the dungeon. As the waves rose and fell, seawater continued to pour into the dungeon, and the cracks even showed a tendency to spread downward.
Li Qing and the base army's psychics are busy trying to stop the cracks from spreading and to drain out as much seawater as possible.
Ning Yuan on the island took the psychics from various teams to hide in the houses, always paying attention to the places on the island that were affected by the collision, and reinforcing them as much as possible to prevent the underground city from being broken.
Even though superpowers have strengthened the bodies of countless people, this is still not a battlefield they can participate in, and it is even difficult to escape unscathed from the gap.
Seeing Lu Weiyi coming back, Ning Yuan felt as if he had found a backbone in his heart. Just as he was about to ask what to do, he saw the huge head of the squid that had been chasing the mutant shark slowly turn towards the direction of the island.
While eyes larger than those of an adult followed Lu Weiyi, a tentacle also reached out.
Ning Yuan held his breath and wanted to speak out to remind him, but he was afraid of attracting the other party's attention - there were thousands of people with special abilities around him.
"Ning Yuan!"
As one of the few women, Yu Mengchu shouted in a low voice. Ye Jia beside her shook her head at her. She couldn't help but cover her mouth and stared into the air.
If that huge tentacle pulled with all its strength, it could split their entire island in half. In comparison, Lu Weiyi in mid-air was not even as big as a suction cup on the tentacle.
This makes people realize more clearly the disparity between the two sides.
Lu Weiyi, who was originally heading towards the island, also noticed the other party's gaze. He cursed in his heart, shouted "Phoenix", changed direction, and flew straight towards the mutant squid.
"What does the base commander want to do?"
"He... is going to take action?"
"No," Ning Yuan said in a very light tone, "He wants to lead it away."
As soon as the words fell, the phoenix suddenly dropped when it hit the tentacles, dodged countless suction cups, and rushed towards the vast sea.
The mutant squid flipped over suddenly, and several tentacles grabbed towards Lu Weiyi at the same time.
Lu Weiyi, who was about to provoke it, had a rocket launcher in his hand and shot it at the squid's head without even aiming.
The sound of artillery fire continued. Except for the first shot which hit the mutant squid's head when it was caught off guard, the rest were all blocked by the tentacles.
The high temperature flames burned its skin, the squid rolled violently, countless tentacles lashed everywhere, and the entire North Island was shaking.
Ning Yuan and his companions were staggering all over the place. He tried his best to keep steady and shouted, "Everyone, do your best to stabilize the base."
"receive!"
At the same time, the supernatural powers of all the earth-type supernatural users in the base tilted down along the island. The island, which was already dislocated and about to fall into the sea, was forced to condense, forming a visible Z shape.
The staggered location allowed the hidden underground city to see the light of day again, but the influx of seawater was inevitable.
The enraged mutant squid swam quickly towards Lu Weiyi and disappeared from the surroundings in an instant. Only the surging waves proved what had happened here.
"Yes...left..."
Before the questioning voice fell, the whole island shook again. A psychic looked around and immediately discovered that the mutant shark that was originally hunted had now turned into a hunter.
And the hunted.
There are so many people with special abilities on the island.
