This was not a friendly weather for Nymph.
"Lady Nymph...why don't we go over there to hide from the wind?"
Seeing the little angel moving forward with his mouth closed and teeth clenched, Asakura Ryoko couldn't help but persuade him. Although Fang Zheng had always told Asakura Ryoko that Nymph's fighting power was very weak, it was not until now that Asakura Ryoko had a preliminary impression of this - Nymph had just flown into the sky to search, and within a few minutes she was blown down.
Asakura Ryoko was speechless to see him being so weak.
"No, that's not necessary!"
Nymph pulled her head out of the snow pile and stared fiercely at the howling blizzard in front of her.
"It's just this kind of weather. If you let me modify it with the information..."
As she spoke, Nymph raised her hands. However, before she could stand firmly, she screamed "Wow!" and was blown away, then buried in the snow.
"Lady Nymph!!"
Seeing this scene, Asakura Ryoko was so scared that she rushed forward and pulled Nymph out of the snow pile. If she had been slower, the little angel might have been buried.
"Let me take you there. Lady Nymph will just be in charge of the search."
Having said this, Asakura Ryoko paused.
"And the master isn't here, so he won't know."
“Okay…Okay…”
Facing Asakura Ryoko's answer, Nymph was depressed for a moment, and then nodded. Then Asakura Ryoko directly carried Nymph on her back, and then her figure flashed, quickly crossed the snow, and flew forward.
The snow was getting heavier, and the snowflakes mixed with the cold wind were like a knife cutting. However, Asakura Ryoko didn't care at all. She was like a ghost, appearing and disappearing in the blizzard. If a third party saw her, they would think they were seeing things. Because from the perspective of a third party, Asakura Ryoko's actions were as if she had just taken a step, but the next moment they would see Asakura Ryoko's entire body suddenly tilted like a disturbed three-dimensional image, and then appeared hundreds of meters away.
Just like that, it didn't take much time for the two of them to arrive at the frozen abandoned city. However, compared to the shock and panic of Professor Mike and others, Nymph and Asakura Ryoko obviously didn't care about such trivial matters as what era this city was created in or who built it.
"forward."
"Turn right."
"Keep going down."
"Turn left!"
Under Nymph's guidance, Asakura Ryoko carried her on her back and quickly went deep into the city. Soon, the scene in front of them slowly changed. Traces of dragging appeared on the empty ground. From a distance, one could even see several black spots moving forward.
“That’s it!”
Nymph's eyes widened, and she locked onto the target instantly. In the deep and dark underground passage, eight monsters that looked like a combination of sea cucumbers and starfish were crawling forward, dragging a sled that they had taken from the camp, and on the sled were a lot of things...
"Please leave it to me, Lady Nymph."
Asakura Ryoko put Nymph on the ground, then she tiptoed and appeared behind the last ancient, and the saber in her hand pierced straight into the opponent's body.
“Puff!”
The thick skin that could even ignore bullets could not resist the saber in Asakura Ryoko's hand. The sharp blade easily pierced through it, and dark green blood spurted out. The tentacles on the attacked ancient body immediately stood up, but before it could fight back, Asakura Ryoko had already swung her knife back and cut off the ancient's head that looked like a starfish.
After the head was cut off, even the Ancient One could not survive. Soon, the headless body spurted blood and fell limply. Asakura Ryoko chuckled and clenched the saber in her hand, rushing towards her victim gracefully and brilliantly like a killer.
Although the ancients also quickly launched a counterattack, unfortunately, they were not facing those fragile earthlings this time, but alien creatures like them. Although it is unknown how powerful the unified thought entity is, it is certain that it is much stronger than the ancients in front of them.
Asakura Ryoko, who was created by them, is naturally no exception.
The girl seemed to be dancing in a ballroom, dodging the attacks of the tentacles of the Ancients with graceful steps, and then stabbed out again, piercing the body of another prey. She turned her strength like a bloodthirsty demon, and stopped abruptly with a piercing scream, and another Ancient became the dead soul under the knife of the executioner who was walking gracefully with a charming smile on his face.
"Is this the death of an organic life form? I have no idea what this is."
While shaking the saber in her hand, Asakura Ryoko smiled and looked at the other ancients. At this moment, the other ancients also changed their expressions (although their expressions could not be seen), and immediately screamed and turned to run deeper into the passage. Seeing this, Asakura Ryoko also laughed and chased after them again.
But just as she turned the corner, she suddenly heard Nymph's scream behind her.
"careful!"
Hearing Nymph's warning, Asakura Ryoko withdrew her hand without hesitation and stepped back. In a flash, a ball of jelly-like thing fell from the ceiling almost at the same time Asakura Ryoko stepped back, brushing against her hair and falling heavily to the ground.
"What's this?"
After dodging the attack, Asakura Ryoko looked at the enemy again and was slightly surprised. What they saw in front of them was no longer the fusion of sea cucumbers and starfish. Instead, it was a huge gray mud that kept moving. Its entire body seemed to be completely unstable, and it was squeezed and deformed like a soft dough. On the mud, countless eyes opened and closed, tentacles spread out and closed from every corner of its body, and mouths emerged from it, screaming and making soul-stirring sounds.
"Tekeli-Li!"
"This is another kind of information-shifting life form."
Nymph also hurriedly stepped back, and Asakura Ryoko returned to her side.
"It seems that the other party has bad intentions, so..."
At this moment, Asakura Ryoko's mouth seemed to be accelerated hundreds of times, opening and closing rapidly, and the original sound swept past at an almost inaudible speed. Along with Asakura Ryoko's chanting that was like "high-speed divine words", countless sharp stone pillars soon shot out from all directions, instantly piercing the huge slime monster into a hedgehog.
However……
"Tekeli-Li!"
The monster did not die because of this. Even though it was riddled with holes, it seemed as if it had not suffered any damage at all. It screamed again and pounced on the prey in front of it.
“This is something really difficult to deal with.”
Asakura Ryoko picked up Nymph and quickly jumped back, while taking the time to glance at the corner not far away. There, several other ancients had been captured by the companions of this slime monster and their heads had been pulled out.
"Lady Nymph, the enemy is a bit difficult. Let's retreat first."
"Hey? But Master..."
"All the prey we targeted have been eaten by these monsters. Staying here will only bring more trouble. The master's mission has been completed. As for these monsters, we will make a decision after asking the master for instructions..."
"No, I'm already here."
Before Asakura Ryoko finished her words, she heard Fang Zheng's voice behind her. The two turned around and saw Fang Zheng walking over with a smile. He waved at them, and on his right hand...
"Master, what's wrong with this...dog?"
Looking at the Husky being dragged by Fang Zheng by its tail, Nymph blinked in confusion.
"I can feel that the residual information on it doesn't seem to match the external appearance..."
"Well, after all, I just finished it. I'll give it to you to fix it up after I get back."
Fang Zheng said this while looking at the slime monster in front of him.
"I never thought I'd meet a Shoggoth after the Ancient Ones. I'm lucky..."
That’s right, the slime monster in front of him was none other than the Shoggoth, a slave that the Ancients had once created to serve them but eventually rebelled against.
The story of the Shoggoth's rebellion is no different from the stories of many robot AIs. They were originally created by the Ancients as slaves and labor. At first, the Shoggoths could only imitate, but gradually, they developed wisdom and began to seek independence. The Ancients naturally suppressed them, and the suppression naturally failed.
So it seems that the Ancients were really miserable. First, they failed to defeat Cthulhu and had to live in Antarctica. Then, they were betrayed by the Shoggoths they created. They fought a miserable civil war for hundreds and thousands of years, but they still didn't win. What's worse is that the ice age came after that. The Ancients who tried to escape from the earth found that their bodies had degenerated and they couldn't travel in space...
Oh my god, if God really wants you to die, you have to die.
So it wasn't my fault that these guys were burned.
Thinking of this, Fang Zheng raised his right hand and tightly grasped the pitch-black sword that he had drawn from the void. Then he turned his hand back and stabbed the pitch-black sword forcefully into the ground.
An incomparable flame gushed out instantly, covering everything in sight.
The plane roared into the sky.
Professor Mike held the joystick in fear, while his assistant huddled in a chair, trembling and pale. What they had just seen almost made them mentally collapse. Those horrible products that should not exist in this world, just the memory of them, made them feel that their brains were on the verge of breaking.
However, at this moment, suddenly, a low sound suddenly came out.
Professor Mike instinctively looked out the window, and as he watched, he saw the city that had been frozen for thousands of years begin to collapse, the mountains began to tremble, and the basin where the entire city was located shook constantly. Then, incomparable smoke gushed out and rushed straight into the sky.
Hot, bright red flames mixed with magma erupted rapidly, engulfing everything in an instant.
