Chapter 769 Collapse
Nini chatted with Frey for a long time, and while talking, she took the opportunity to look around.
Although this place is underground, the lighting is pretty good.
Although the Untouchables have strange appearances and somewhat eccentric personalities, they are relatively friendly, and their gazes are filled with eager curiosity.
There are many large machines around them, with all kinds of messy shapes, mainly with one personality.
Except for a small number of them whose uses can be seen, most of them are inexplicable.
It seems this race is good at building mechanical structures, coupled with excellent learning ability.
Nini's eyes flickered and the smile on her face grew even wider.
In the future, these people may join Castel and become a good helper.
And her goal today was achieved. The first contact was quite good. She just needed to move forward slowly. With Frey's presence and the hostility of the Rhine people, the Untouchables would inevitably turn to Castel.
Just when everyone was calm, Nini's smile suddenly stopped, her eyes suddenly became sharp, and she looked to the side.
"What's wrong?" Frey has always been perceptive and noticed Nini's changes at the first time.
Nini did not answer. She was frowning and communicating with Una through the mind link.
"Something's wrong, Nini, please be more careful."
"What's going on? Are these Untouchables setting up an ambush?"
"No, it's not them. It's my intuition that's a little off!"
"intuition?"
Una's words made Nini a little confused. Banshees are a spiritual race, but they have never had any intuitive abilities.
On the contrary, their perception is very accurate and they can clearly recognize specific dangers.
The vague "intuition" that Una described is not something that abilities generally give.
Nini's heart suddenly moved, and she concentrated her will on sensing the water veins.
The feedback of this ability is also accurate, but it is not very useful underground because there are too many things underground that contain "water" but cannot form "water veins".
For example, large organisms.
A few stones suddenly fell down and hit the scales on Nini's tail.
The next moment, Nini suddenly raised her head and looked at the rock wall above.
"There's something up there! Be careful!"
She shouted a warning, then rolled her snake tail, gathered the people around her, and protected them as she rushed to the side.
On the wall of the cave at the top of the rock, broken rocks began to peel off, first in small pieces, and then quickly grew larger. Almost a moment later, the entire cave collapsed!
Nini dodged to the side, but when she looked back she found that there was no escape, as the entire top wall of the cave was falling down.
"This is bad." Nini's eyes widened and she muttered to herself.
Although she is a banshee and has immense power, that is only compared to humans.
She couldn't stop the falling rock with her physical strength, not even with armor!
Perhaps she could exert greater power in the sea, but here, she was still flesh and blood.
Are you going to die?
Nini gritted her teeth, but her heart was filled with sadness. Una's position might allow her to avoid the falling rocks, but she couldn't.
Unfortunately, the two of them had a symbiotic contract. If she died, Una would not be able to survive!
The only thing to be thankful for is that Monica had been away for a while and was out of the scope of the contract, so she was no longer involved. The tribesmen and Zeus who were farther away were also safe.
Although she was hesitant, Nini still quickly looked around, trying to find a shelter, but these untouchables seemed to have no habit of building houses, and under the dome was an empty garbage dump.
So Nini could only watch in despair as the collapsed cave roof got closer and closer.
Beside her, Frey, who was snatched away by Nini, was stunned for a moment and finally realized what was happening.
He was a mortal, and his reaction speed was far slower than Nini's. It was only at this moment that he widened his eyes, and then -
“Big guy!!!”
With Frey's loud shout, the huge pile of garbage under the shaking ceiling also trembled.
The next moment, the ground rose up.
Countless piles of discarded parts and garbage were shaken off, revealing the huge size of the machinery underneath.
It was a gigantic mechanical creation, much larger than any other machine around it.
It slowly turned over like a sleeping giant.
Then, it supported itself on the ceiling with one elbow, tilted its head slightly, and used the other hand to support itself.
Nini tried her best to look for cover, hiding here and there, but the [Big Guy] just slightly tilted one of his mechanical arms to block the falling rocks from above for several people.
The collapse of the cave dome stopped for a moment, and the furnace on the big man's chest suddenly lit up with flames. The mechanical flywheels everywhere spun wildly, and he actually grabbed the fallen cave roof with his backhand and threw it forward!
boom!!!
There was a violent shaking, and smoke, dust, and rubble accompanied by strong winds filled the entire underground cave, and the garbage that had just piled up into a mountain was flattened by half.
“Cough cough cough!”
"How are you?"
"Damn it, you're pressing my legs!"
"Where's Frey? Where's Lord Frey?"
Nini stood above everyone at the last moment, but no attack came. She looked up and saw the [Big Guy] standing firmly above everyone.
Several bolts and gears fell out and bounced on the ground.
Well, maybe not that stable.
As the smoke and dust cleared, people looked around and suddenly a scream was heard.
"Look up!"
Everyone looked up, and the Untouchables gasped in unison.
The garbage dump buried deep underground now has a big hole on the top. The ground in the distance can be vaguely seen, and sunlight is also shining through.
The untouchables who were buried deep underground in the garbage dump and never saw the sun were now exposed to the sunlight for the first time!
"Oh my god, oh my god"
Many people were shocked and stood there motionless, but Nini was already on full alert.
"Oona, come closer to me!"
"Okay! What's going on?"
"Something's wrong! This isn't just a normal collapse. The rock above has obvious signs of excavation!"
Nini stared at the front intently. Over there was the collapsed cave wall that had just been thrown over by the big guy. Now it was still a pile of dust and she couldn't see clearly what was inside.
"Nini, look up!"
Hearing this, Nini looked up and squinted her eyes.
Looking closely, you can see quite a few people standing at the edge of the collapsed pit.
Their clothing was very uniform, mostly white robes with golden lines embellishment.
In the Rhine, only one group of people would dress like this.
Nini withdrew her gaze and looked forward.
When the dust settled, a group of people in priest robes were standing there, forming a battle formation and looking at this side leisurely. Beside them, there were also some huge machines with radiating holy emblems engraved on them.
"Candlelight Club!" Nini squeezed out the word from between her teeth.
"The Holy See has taken it down!"
