Chapter 328 Going Deeper
The winding passage went deeper and deeper, and we passed at least six turns along the way. From this, I came to the conclusion: the chief engineer responsible for designing the base for Olympus was either a termite or a mouse in his previous life - you Look at this hole!
Of course, this journey was not uneventful. Along the way, we encountered countless Olympus members lying on the ground. These people were obviously the elites set up by Olympus in the main base. This can be seen from the surrounding people. You can see the dense scars on the wall. Without the strength of a little monster, who can practice carving on these high-strength alloys?
Among the corpses that died of cannibalism, there will naturally be one or two survivors left behind. The ability to survive in such a melee is naturally extraordinary. When the intruders approached, these people had already been killed. The fanatics who were completely brainwashed by the religion immediately drained the last bit of their physical strength and launched an attack. We encountered six or seven such fake corpse incidents in a row. Of course, every attack failed to work. Pandora and Huesca didn't even take action. Without any chance, those attackers would commit suicide under Sandora's mental control. In the end, Sandora, who was already impatient, even turned on the fear force field, amplifying the fear in every enemy's heart hundreds of times. Trying to get rid of those harmless but extremely annoying flies in this way, but with little success. Those members of the Olympus elite who had only a trace of HP left did not flinch even in the huge fear. Instead, they launched an even more irrational attack on us. Even Shandora found this situation extremely incomprehensible. In her opinion, as an elite force of an organization, if it fell to such a point, and no matter what it was going on, When all kinds of resistance cannot change the situation, the smartest choice is of course to do everything possible to survive, because only in this way can the overall strength be preserved to the greatest extent, and then have a chance to turn defeat into victory.
This idea is of course correct, and as a Xiling Queen who considers the interests of the race as the first consideration and the final victory as the only purpose, Sandora must also have such ideas and awareness, but she obviously has a "religion" towards human beings. We still lack the necessary understanding of power.
The so-called religious fanaticism, especially the fanaticism of cults, is a weird thing that can completely put people's hearts into the most ridiculous state. It can turn the smartest people into fools, the calmest people into lunatics, and it can turn Socrates into the most ridiculous state. He can transform into Mussolini, Hegel into Adolf Hitler, and Pandora into... ah, a Pandora... That girl is already in her final form...
Olympus's brainwashing is more successful than that of ordinary cults, because it not only gives its followers an exciting goal, but more importantly - this goal seems to be really successful!
It was really annoying to eliminate those half-dead soldiers along the way. In the end, Sandora simply put the "suicide" command into the mental force field, so as we went deeper, we continued to encounter Orin. An NPC suddenly stood up from the pile of corpses of the Pisi members, then bowed to us and turned around to commit suicide. This was a weird scene. It was as if their only purpose of lying here and lingering was to perform suicide after we came over...
Sandora's fighting method is the most terrifying - you will be a doll in her hands until you die.
Just when we began to suspect that all the breathing things in the entire Olympus base had been turned into organic fertilizer on the ground, and the leaders had also been killed by the riots of their subordinates, a burst of clapping suddenly came from us. Came from the front, accompanied by a voice that sounded extremely disgusting and neither male nor female: "Very powerful power, very powerful, in the human supernatural organization, you are indeed enough to be called to stand at the top." A character..."
Looking at the empty corridor in front of her, Sandora said calmly: "Stop hiding, insect, we have a way to find you out."
"It seems that the elimination of a few ants that failed to accept the blessing has greatly inflated the self-confidence of you mortals," the voice still pretended to say, "So far, you have only been competing with the great Olympian Fighting with the chess pieces arranged by Si, those inferior mortals, oh, and the weak ones who fell here, their deaths are meaningless...including Poseidon, that idiot who always likes to show off and show off when he appears..."
Oh, it seems that Poseidon, who was accidentally killed by Pandora just now, was indeed pretending to be evil and suffered misfortune. Thinking of this, even Pandora, who has always maintained an iceberg state, showed a dull look - I guess this girl will still be in this life. This is the first time you encounter that type of enemy.
"My name is Hades." Seeing our dull reactions, the invisible guy took it as a sign of fear and couldn't help but said proudly, "The king of darkness, the god of eternal sleep and death, Mortals, die in my hands..."
I waved my hand impatiently: "Pandora, polarization force field."
Accompanied by a sharp scream as if some kind of rotating machinery suddenly stopped, the abnormal spatial distortion around was immediately neutralized by Pandora's polarizing stance. A man wearing a black priest uniform, carrying a sword and a Poseidon appeared more than ten meters in front of us. The guy in the winter-like egg-ache mask was opening his hands and giving an emotional speech as if he were preaching. However, with the sudden loss of his ability, this action instantly became a very funny pantomime performance. .
The man in the black mask with the name Hades opened his hands and maintained the impromptu speech posture just now. He was stunned for a few seconds and couldn't react.
"Mortals! What have you done!?" "Hades", who had been de-invisible, still did not forget his awesome identity, "How dare you offend the great God of Death like this..."
I was too lazy to listen to the lunatic in front of me expressing his delusions, so I slapped the eager little guy next to me on the head: "Vesca, beat him!"
As soon as I finished speaking, the cat-eyed Lolita, who was full of fighting spirit, let out an "ouch" and rushed forward like a runaway... Viska.
"Ha! He is indeed a stupid mortal!"
The man in the black mask screamed in a strange voice, then raised his hands high, and a large transparent phantom with a certain gelatinous texture emerged from his back, quickly condensing into the shape of a sword, and then He stabbed at the charging little girl with great swiftness.
A dense clanging sound of metal suddenly sounded as Visca came into contact with those transparent phantoms - oh, strictly speaking, it was the psionic energy shield around Visca colliding with those phantoms, and the two energies There was a fierce collision in the air, and bright silver dazzling sparks continuously burst out. The scattered psionic energy and the mutant energy released by Hades splashed everywhere in the narrow corridor like bullets, and soon turned this corridor into a honeycomb. It has a post-modern structure. I heard that this kind of wall is most suitable for use in grand theaters...
The leader of Olympus is indeed a bit interesting. After all, the technology used is the product of Xiling civilization. Viska, who originally wanted to use a collision to resolve the battle, suddenly lost momentum under the dense bombardment of transparent blades. But no harm was done.
But this scene had a huge impact on Hades.
"What kind of ability do you have!?" The masked man kept attacking, but his voice had an unbelievable tone, "How can you survive the attack of the Death Blade unharmed!?"
Seeing that Viska was still walking forward casually despite being bombarded by the so-called "Death Blade", I couldn't help but curiously asked: "Vesca, why don't you use weapons?"
I remember that Viska's favorite fighting style should be the turret style like Pandora, right?
When Viska heard my question, he immediately stopped, turned around and scratched his little head, and whispered with a confused expression: "But my brother asked me to go up and beat him!"
Uh...should I say they are indeed sisters? Why can't you turn corners just like Pandora?
I shrugged and said, "It's up to you, whatever is convenient for you."
Hades immediately became furious after hearing this: "Arrogant mortals! You will die in the wrath of the gods today!"
As soon as I finished speaking, even I felt that the energy fluctuations on this human superpower had undergone some strange changes in an instant. It was not a change in the intensity of the power, but a huge change in nature - the man behind him A large, shadowy, transparent shadow instantly emerged in the air like a transparent mold filled with mercury!
This guy actually materialized energy? !
"Go to hell! Deathstorm!"
Hades shouted angrily, and the overwhelming bright silver swords rushed towards the little girl like a violent storm. The intensity of energy contained in it even made me feel a faint threat - this is what Olympus calls The power brought by "blessing"?
The silver torrent tore apart the high-strength alloy walls on both sides of the corridor, instantly widening the space by more than twice. Cut by this energy knife of an unknown variant, those that were tens of meters taller than the nuclear bunker. The solid metal wall is not much stronger than a piece of tofu, well, it is at the level of frozen tofu.
But in the face of such a deadly torrent, Viska had no intention of avoiding it. She just raised her right hand slightly, and then a red halo began to swim around her body. This scene was vaguely familiar to me...
"aooisasi-duukios..." Viska spat out a string of syllables with unknown meaning, and at the same time, the silver-white energy blade came into contact with her fingers. With a crisp sound of crystals breaking, Hardy Si's attack turned into scattered fragments and gradually disappeared into the air.
I remembered that when we were in the world of Azeroth, Qianqian and I went to inspect the computer room where Bubble was, and the ability this girl used when we met Viska for the first time!
Okay, I admit, what I just wanted to say was Kamijou Touma’s ability to pick up girls... But considering that Viska is a girl herself, I’d better swallow this sentence...
Energy interference that can invalidate supernatural powers, according to what Viska mentioned during a chat, is a skill that specifically targets supernatural powers or other similar powers between magic and natural science, even if it is superficial The kind of time control that can be called a magical skill has suffered a small loss due to Visca's interference ability.
"Pandora, do you have this ability?"
Seeing that Viska easily crushed Hades' attack, I casually asked the little girl next to me, but there was no doubt in my mind: The relationship between the replica and the original body is exactly the same. Since Viska There is no reason why Pandora can’t do it, right?
But unexpectedly, Pandora actually shook her head: "This is Huesca's own ability."
I asked in surprise: "You don't know how?"
"Pandora doesn't have this kind of skill specifically for supernatural powers," Sandora on the side answered on Pandora's behalf, "This seems to be an ability developed by Visca himself. I really don't know how this girl has such a weird ability. Ability, but now it seems that the effect is good."
Well, the effect was indeed good. After Viska smashed Hades' attack, the latter seemed to be stunned by such a huge change, and stood there stupidly, while Viska was among a group of people who advocated shamelessness. ...Ahem. After being trained for a long time by the imperial leaders who have practical tactics, they naturally understood what to do at this time. Suddenly, the little girl casually pulled out a three-meter-long door from the space... Oh, this is too powerful. It would collapse the corridor, so he replaced it with a sniper rifle nearly two meters long, aimed at Hades' head and pulled the trigger.
The moment the gun rang out, Hades finally reacted. He stretched out a hand in panic, and a bright silver energy shield instantly condensed in the air. Perhaps it was because he had no time to dodge, or perhaps it was out of habit. He was confident that ordinary thermal weapons could no longer harm him, the "god of the new world," and Hades seemed to have no intention of dodging the oncoming gunfire.
As a result, the powerful psionic warhead carried huge kinetic energy and easily tore apart the beautiful and smooth silver shield that could reflect the silhouette of a human figure, evaporating the "god" behind him and the dozen kilograms of floor beneath his feet into pieces. A cloud of colorful gas.
Life is nonsense, death is frustrating, have a good journey, NPC number two from Olympus, and I hope you can comfort Lord Poseidon who didn't even have time to finish his lines...
"Let's go." I lamented the death of another Olympus leader, and then took the lead in walking forward.
After crossing the corridor blocked by Hades, we finally came to a wide and bright hall. However, this once gorgeous and unusual gathering place was now lifeless, with various luxurious and exquisite sculptures. It was beaten into rubble all over the ground, and the ancient Roman-style pillars were covered with shocking cracks. The ground was covered with thick high-end carpets. No matter what color they were originally, at least they were a bright blood red now - ——The blood of countless people was condensed in this gorgeous assembly hall.
The ground was covered with corpses scattered everywhere.
They all wore black robes that resembled priest uniforms, but did not wear weird white masks. They should be senior members of Olympus, or the Holy See Guards, but these beings who have already stood at the pinnacle of human power are at this moment. But they all turned into lifeless corpses, and the blood in their bodies was even warm.
"Killed instantly by the same technique, the dense holes in the corpses seemed to have been shot by thousands of crossbow arrows for several minutes." Sandora looked down at the corpses and came to the conclusion, "The person who did it should be That guy named Hades, it seems that he 'quelled' the 'rebellion' in the entire base by himself."
At this moment, a vicissitudes of voice suddenly sounded in the lifeless hall: "Rebellion? Haha... It is indeed a rebellion..."
The sudden sound made us all slightly startled. In terms of our perception...well, under Sandora's perception, can there be any human beings who can hide their aura?
"Human, I really admire your courage." Sandora turned her head towards the direction of the voice, with a kind of emotionless indifference in her tone. "If you continue to pretend to be dead, maybe I can spare you." One life."
Well, it seems that I am the only one who didn't realize that there are still survivors in this hall...
Only then did I see a very tall man sitting slumped on a broken stone pillar not far from us. He looked about forty-five years old and had a rather powerful beard. , he does have a bit of the temperament of a high-ranking person, but now, I can't see a trace of fighting spirit from his face, and under his feet, there is a white mask that has been split in two.
Uh... this decadent uncle is also the leader of Olympus? By the way, even if Sandora has already done some damage, the leader of this gang, which is known as the largest criminal organization in human history, shouldn't use this image to have his first historic meeting with us, right?
Shandora's words made this decadent man look confused and surprised for a moment, but then he showed a clear expression and let out an indescribable bitter smile: "Humans? Could it be that you want to say that you Not human? Haha... I always thought that the famous Great Love is a group of great saviors, but now it seems... we are not the only ones with wishful thinking... So your goal is actually those ancient people God’s legacy? Haha…”
Sandora frowned impatiently, and then a raging black flame burned in her right hand. In the flames, a ferocious black claw gradually took shape - this girl wants to scare people again, since I said After not caring about her appearance at all, Sandora didn't care at all whether her abyssal form looked good or not. To put it in a more self-aggrandizing way, in the whole world, Sandora only cares about my opinion. That’s all.
"Human, I don't have time to play with you..." Sandora in the abyss form jumped in space and came to the stunned decadent uncle, and then pressed her huge claws against the opponent's chest, "Tell me now, your Where are your accomplices hiding, and...where are our relics hidden by you..."
