Skill extraction starting from Dragon Clan

The spotlight was just like a firefly in the turbid water, barely able to illuminate the two pale faces. All Ye Sheng could do was hug Ya Ji tightly as they were falling rapidly.

Just now, an obvious crack quickly approached from a distance, as if an invisible sharp blade had cut through a rock layer several meters thick. The earthquake tore the bottom of the water, and the land they were standing on cracked and sank. Ye Sheng and Yaji didn't have time to react before they felt the huge water pressure coming down from above, sucking them down like a toilet.

A huge cavity suddenly appeared on the ground under their feet. Millions of tons of water were pouring into the cavity, drawing them and the rocks inside. Even the lifeline of nanomaterials could not resist this. A natural power.

Deep under the water, Ye Sheng and Yaji held each other's hands and floated in the dark green water. When they looked up, the light from the spotlight above was lost in the dark green. They looked the same in all directions. They couldn't see the end, except Directly in front there is a huge bronze wall extending up, down, left and right, seemingly without boundaries.

When the water completely filled the suddenly exposed space, the earthquake stopped temporarily, the dust in the water gradually fell, and the vision began to become clear.

Ye Sheng recognized a mottled mark from the patina of the bronze wall. It was exactly the same as the mark on the pottery sherd just discovered. It was a face burned in the flames, only much larger.

The moment the lifeline broke, Ye Sheng and Yaji lost contact with the Monyach. When they found that their situation was a little better, Ye Sheng immediately prepared to use his spirit to use the "snake" to Replace the wire with the Monyach.

This technique is very difficult, but after receiving professional training from Kassel Academy, Ye Sheng can easily use the spirit of speech to build several kilometers of communication lines underwater.

However, when he sensed the snakes in his mind, Ye Sheng was shocked to find that the snakes were "fearful". The snakes composed of bioelectricity were swimming uneasily in his mind. Even without a specific image, Ye Sheng could feel their tendency to escape from here.

At this time, the pattern on the wall suddenly appeared clearly. It was a raised human face with a burning log in its mouth. It was a strange picture. The face was distorted by the pain of the fire, but it refused to let go. Kai gritted his teeth against the wood.

After the bronze human face appeared, it slowly opened its mouth, as if yawning. The terrifying sound of metal heating and cracking came from the depths of the bronze wall. A dark hole with a diameter of about one meter appeared in the blue. On the head wall, there are teeth from the bronze human face up and down, but they are not human teeth. They are sharp like daggers.

Ye Sheng recognized what it was. Professor Mance once told him that it was a great achievement of alchemy, using the purest substance to contain the spirit, and then serving as a guard of a certain place.

This is a living spirit.

Ye Sheng's heart was shaken, and he felt that the snake he had just summoned to stay around and be on guard was escaping. This was an unprecedented phenomenon. The "snake" was his loyal slave, always inhabiting the depths of his consciousness. At this moment, the huge fear forced the snake to escape from its owner. Ye Sheng had a splitting headache. Deep in his consciousness, the other "snakes" were also affected. They swam in even more fear, trying to squeeze his head and escape. here.

Without any time to think about it, he gave up using the word spirit to contact the Monyach and used this last chance to inform his partner.

"Run!"

Ye Sheng's voice sounded directly in Yaji's mind. Yaji, who was about to step forward to carefully observe the bronze human face, immediately turned around and swam towards the hole where they fell into without any hesitation.

A huge suction force came from the black hole in the living creature's mouth, which even caused a huge vortex to form under the water. The vortex quickly grew larger and stronger, like a giant vacuum cleaner, sucking in everything in the cave.

Ye Sheng and Yaji swam hard, but under the pull of suction, they could only get farther and farther away from the hole they entered.

Aki felt that her body was getting heavier and heavier, as if there were countless pairs of arms pulling her body back and dragging her back. Although she was just a little bit away from the entrance of the cave, she could not continue to get closer and instead gradually moved away. Just when she felt exhausted and about to give up, she suddenly felt a force pushing forward from behind her.

It was this power that broke the balance of power between Aki and the current, allowing her to move forward a short distance and grab the stone on the edge of the cave entrance with both hands.

Yaji didn't care about stabilizing his body and quickly looked back, just in time to see Ye Sheng being sucked in by the black hole. Combined with the bronze human face outside, it looked like he was being swallowed by a huge human face. .

The enforcement department's discipline prohibits sexual relations between men and women who cooperate underwater, and it is said that violation of this discipline led to heavy losses in the Greenland ice operation 10 years ago. No one knows what the operation was 10 years ago, but from the fact that no one in today's execution department participated in that operation, we can roughly conclude that the team 10 years ago are all dead.

Therefore, Ye Sheng and Yaji have always declared that they are not lovers, and they strongly agree that if there are emotional factors between companions at a dangerous moment, it will lead to unpredictable results.

However, after seeing Ye Sheng being swallowed by the bronze face, Yaji released his hand without hesitation and swam towards Ye Sheng along the current.

…

…

After the two of them completely recovered from their dizziness, the first thing they saw was a large number of bronze statues.

Ye Sheng glanced at Ya Ji beside him, with a helpless expression behind his closed diving mask.

Yaji looked at the surroundings that were completely plunged into darkness. The only light was the spotlight on Ye Sheng's helmet. She suddenly felt the cold, which was enough to destroy people, the cold at the edge of the world.

"Ye Sheng!" She called back, but suddenly realized that the communication line between the two had been interrupted by the violent incident just now.

"I'm here." It was clear that the communication between the two had been disconnected, but Ye Sheng seemed to have heard what she said, and swam to Aki's side and stretched out his hand to shake hers through thick gloves, both of them exposed smiled.

After urgently reconnecting the broken communication lines, Ye Sheng summoned a snake as a medium of communication and restored communication with Yaji.

With the help of the dim light of the spotlight, the two of them had time to carefully observe the surrounding environment.

"Is this a city of bronze?" Aki said softly, and the restored communication quickly stabilized her spirit.

"Similar to the legendary bronze city built by Norton on the Nordic ice sheet, in a sense we are lucky. If the earthquake had not opened the cracks, we would not have been able to drill holes under the water to get here." Ye Sheng looked around. The environment is a bit exciting.

The two found the correct direction and began to float. It didn't take long for them to rise above the water.

"It seems like there's a lot of air left here, which might buy us a lot of time." Ye Sheng looked at the environment here and breathed a sigh of relief.

Aki raised her head, and the open environment that finally appeared allowed her to use the small flashlight she carried. With the help of the light of the flashlight, she looked up at the vast space of this empty space, like a giant palace dome, which was engraved with ancient patterns. They were the scattered branches and leaves of a giant tree, and the leaves and branches were bent into undecipherable characters.

"Maybe it's not possible. Everything here is made of metal. If it is closed for too long, the oxygen will be depleted by metal oxidation, and the oxygen content in the air will be very low." Yaji made his own judgment, "So we still just Judging from the current supply of oxygen bottles that can be relied on on one's own body, they can only last for less than two hours."

Saying this, Yaji lowered the output pressure of the oxygen bottle so that he could wait longer for possible rescue to arrive.

Ye Sheng decided not to sit still and wait for death. He asked Yaji to stay here while he turned over and dived underwater.

The ancient bronze city is one cavity after another, each cavity connected by a bronze corridor. After being submerged by water, most of the corridors are located below the water surface, like an ant nest half submerged in water.

After a while, Yaji suddenly felt that the temperature of the surrounding water seemed to be rising, and Ye Sheng also quickly floated up from the bottom.

"Be careful, this Qingcheng city has come alive!" This was the first thing Ye Sheng said after reconnecting to the communication line.

Immediately afterwards, there was a vague and creepy sound from all around, as if someone was holding two pieces of rusty iron and rubbing it hard against the ears. At this moment, such sounds were amplified hundreds or thousands of times.

Ye Sheng and Yaji looked at the surrounding bronze walls. Tens of thousands of bronze gears slowly began to rotate. The huge bells echoed inside the cave. The rust on the gears began to peel off. The gears bit together and made a rattling sound. the sound of.

Ye Sheng raised his head fiercely. In the darkness where he couldn't see clearly, an unprecedented loud sound sounded. The bronze pendulum vibrated back and forth around the bearing. The snake-faced man on the bronze wall moved at the same time. He raised the tooth wand in his hand and spoke carefully. The long snake neck bends and looks up at the dome, like an ancient pilgrimage ceremony.

"The 'system' of this city has been activated. Be careful. Although we don't know the reason for activation, our situation may be more dangerous."

…

…

"The fight has reached this point. The two of them should be safe in a short time."

Zheng Shu looked at the heated battlefield ahead and quit controlling the Nibelungs. After his efforts, he eliminated the spatial distortion in the middle and brought the two Nibelung spaces tightly together. Relying on the reinforcement of the Nibelungs, the Deadpool army finally broke through the line of fire of Bronze City. , led by a group of 5-meter-tall super-giant alien bodies, frantically attacking the walls of the Bronze City.

It's not that Zheng Shu doesn't want to continue to extend the Nibelung roots forward, it's mainly that the alchemy circle of Bronze City is always rejecting his invasion.

Theoretically speaking, as long as he continues to wait, such a war is essentially about the energy reserves between the two Nibelungs. Faced with the overwhelming size gap between the Nibelungs and Zheng Shu, , the defense of Bronze City will eventually be broken by the endless army of deadpools.

But the problem is that time is running out. Ye Sheng and the others can only maintain oxygen for two hours at most. If he really continues to use it up slowly, even if they capture the Bronze City, they will only be able to collect the bodies of the two young lovers. .

Therefore, from the very beginning, Zheng Shu's purpose in sending his army of deadpools was not to directly attack Bronze City, but to force Bronze City to open new passages on its own.

As the intensity of the war continued to rise, the alchemical arrays on the gates and walls of the Bronze City began to gradually overload. The large amount of heat could not be dissipated quickly, causing the temperature of the entire city wall to soar. The excessive heat even caused the color of the entire city wall to change. changed.

If faced with ordinary enemies, such a high-temperature wall would be an absolutely insurmountable wall of sighs, but for the Deadpool Legion, which would not die with the blessing of the Nibelungs, this high-temperature wall would only The energy they consume has just increased.

On the contrary, the sharply rising temperature has affected the stability of the alchemy array. The attacks of several large arrays have begun to stall, and the attack frequency of the remaining alchemy arrays has also continued to decrease.

Facing the weakening enemy firepower, the Deadpool army seized this opportunity and even climbed onto the bronze city wall.

Faced with such a predicament, the only option for the controllers inside is to use other methods to cool down the city wall from the outside.

Coincidentally, due to the construction of the Three Gorges Dam, the entire Bronze City is now submerged under the water. A large amount of water is the best cooling material.

With the control of the controller, Bronze City opened several hidden openings. Through the control of each opening, thousands of tons of river water circulated inside the Bronze City.

The river water that was originally a few degrees will be quickly heated to forty or fifty degrees after flowing through the Bronze City. The heated river water will leave through the flow of the Yangtze River, and by the way, it will draw a steady stream of cold river water into the Bronze City. Continue to cool down.

The temperature of the city wall in the Nibelung dropped rapidly. Not only did the color return to its original state, but the alchemical formations that could not be activated due to overheating were also activated again, pushing the Deadpool army down again.

Seeing this scene, Zheng Shu's eyes lit up, now was the new passage he wanted.

Only leaving a small part of his attention here to continue directing the battle, Zheng Shu opened his eyes and his consciousness returned to his body again.

As his consciousness left him, the makeshift body in the Nibelung collapsed into a mound of earth.

Zheng Shu observed for a while and found several hidden passages that were frantically sucking in river water. It is said to be a hidden passage. Each opening is more than two meters in diameter, and they are all controlled by a living spirit. It can be seen that this should be the road used for daily traffic when Bronze City was still on the ground.

It is estimated that the controllers inside the Bronze City did not expect that a Dragon King would put down his pride and sneak in using such an unethical method.

I should be able to pay off my debt tomorrow
