Chapter 289: Strange Car Adventure
Zhou Wen couldn't help but feel a little regretful as he watched a large number of white bat carcasses falling on the passage behind, among which were some crystals.
The strange car kept moving forward. He didn't know what the consequences would be if he left the strange car, so it was not easy for him to pick up the crystals. He could only watch the strange car gradually move away from them.
A large number of bats were killed, but there were still a large number of white bats rushing up fearlessly. Looking at the white shadows flying everywhere above one's head, one can't help but feel his scalp tingling.
Zhou Wen had just used Taiyin Wind and his energy had not yet recovered when he saw a large group of white bats rushing down again. His face changed slightly, and he had to grip the bamboo sword tightly, preparing to fight the white bats in close combat.
Lu Yunxian and Lu Ning also summoned their companion pets to prepare for battle. The carriage was too small, so they could only summon their companion pets in a companion state, which transformed into armor, weapons, etc. to assist them in battle.
Seeing a large number of white bats rushing down, Zhou Wen was about to draw his sword, but he heard a "whoosh" sound, and the white bats in the sky actually retreated. No white bat continued to rush down, but just circled below the top of the cave.
Zhou Wen and the other two were stunned. They looked towards the front of the car and saw that the puppet was holding a strange musical instrument in its hand. The instrument should be made of stone. It looked flat and had several holes on it. It was very rough.
But when the white bat wanted to rush down, the puppet put the stone instrument in front of its face. Its face was just a piece of wood without any facial features. No one knew how it blew air, but a humming sound came out of the hole in the stone.
As soon as the sound was heard, the white bats that rushed down immediately retreated, hovering in the sky for a long time, but did not dare to rush down again.
The strange car passed through the swarm of bats, but was not attacked by the bats again and continued to move forward safely.
"Young Master Wen...that puppet can't be alive..." Lu Yunxian stared at the puppet in amazement. He originally thought it was just a mechanical dead object, but who knew it would have such a strange change.
Zhou Wen was also looking at the puppet. The puppet was standing on the front pedal of the car and was no longer pushing the rocker arm, but the strange car was still moving forward at a constant speed and the rocker arm was rotating on its own.
The puppet is just standing at the front of the car, holding a stone instrument in its hands, looking up ahead, as if gazing into the distance. However, it has no facial features, not even eyes, so what is it looking at? It feels extremely weird.
Zhou Wen felt strange in his heart, but since it was good for them, Zhou Wen had no intention of attacking the puppet. He was just a little worried about where this strange car would take them.
The scenery in front of them suddenly opened up, and the white bats in the sky also scattered all of a sudden. Zhou Wen and the other two looked through the scattered white bats and saw a blue sky.
Unlike the cave just now, this is a huge and boundless space. You can't see the end of this space at a glance. You can even see the sea and islands in the distance, and above is the blue sky.
But the blue sky was a little too blue, just like a sapphire. Zhou Wen looked carefully and found that it seemed to be a sapphire.
An unimaginably huge sapphire that occupies the entire sky constitutes the sky of this underground space.
There was no sun or stars, and the sapphire itself emitted a faint blue light, illuminating the entire underground space, and also casting a layer of light blue on everything in the underground space.
The next second, the strange car landed on the blue ocean. Zhou Wen didn't know if it was the ocean. Anyway, he couldn't see the end of the water. At a glance, it was all deep blue sea water.
The strange car could actually travel on the sea. Its stone wheels rotated on the sea as if it were walking on flat ground. It sped across the sea, leaving two white waves on the sea.
"What's that down there?" Lu Yunxian said in horror, pointing at the sea water beside him.
Zhou Wen and Lu Ning looked towards the sea and saw a huge shadow appearing below, as if some huge monster was swimming under the strange car.
All they could see was a huge shadow with no end in sight, and that shadow was gradually getting bigger.
Crash!
The sea water sprayed into the sky like a volcanic eruption, at least dozens of feet high, and huge waves rolled up all around. The sea water hit the strange car, but the strange car did not move at all, but a large amount of sea water poured into the car bed, soaking the three people.
However, Zhou Wen and the other two had no mind to pay attention to the sea water on their bodies. Their six eyes were all staring at the sea surface on one side of the chariot.
I saw a huge creature that was completely black and looked like it was carved from a black gemstone, with half of its body sticking out from the sea. Its body was perfect and gorgeous, with pieces of black gemstone-like scales shining brightly. Every inch of its body seemed to be meticulously carved. Even with a magnifying glass, you couldn't see any roughness or flaws on such a huge body.
Its huge body, like a small mountain, gives people a feeling of refinement and majesty.
"Dragon...that's a dragon...a dragon carved from black gemstone..." Lu Yunxian stuttered, pointing at the creature with half of its body sticking out of the sea.
Zhou Wen's face didn't look good either. The development of things seemed to have exceeded his expectations. Regardless of whether the terrifying creature in the sea was a real dragon or not, just by looking at the aura it exuded, one could tell how terrifying it was. It might even be as powerful as the white dragon in Longjing.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
A series of waves splashed, and the sea water around the strange car continued to churn. A large amount of sea water rushed over, knocking Zhou Wen and the other two to the ground.
But their eyes were not on the inside of the car. Outside the strange car, black dragon heads broke through the waves, one... two... three...
When Zhou Wen saw the ninth black dragon sticking its head out of the ocean, he felt a little numb.
"Roar!" Nine creatures carved from black gems roared in unison at the strange car. The sound waves rushed towards the strange car in an instant. Even the sea water was impacted by the power of the sound waves and formed huge waves, rushing towards the tiny strange car from all directions.
"It's over!" Lu Yunxian's face turned horrible. With such a terrifying creature and such terrifying sound waves, they were probably doomed today.
Zhou Wen gripped the palm-leaf fan tightly, ready to fight to the death. Even though he knew he was no match for his opponent, he couldn't just sit there and wait to die.
"Woo!" The strange sound of the stone instrument was heard again in front of the car. Along with the humming sound, the surrounding sound waves and huge waves also dissipated at the same time, and no one could get close to the strange car.
Nine black dragons stared at the strange car with fierce eyes, but none of them pounced on it. They just watched the strange car slowly drive to the other side of the sea.
Zhou Wen and the other two had their hearts pounding. After the strange car had moved away from the nine black dragons, Zhou Wen looked back and saw the nine black gem-like dragons roaring towards the sky, as if venting their anger.
Under the sea, Zhou Wen discovered that the lower half of their bodies were connected together, like a black mountain sinking under the sea. Only then did he realize that they were not nine dragons, but a monster with nine dragon heads.
