Immediately afterwards, a huge black shadow flashed past the entrance of the stone chamber, so fast that people could only catch a vague outline.
The team members immediately raised their weapons and stood ready...
Li He's eyes widened, his face full of shock and vigilance.
"What is that?" Li He shouted, his eyes full of vigilance. The weapon in his hand emitted energy light, and his slightly trembling arm showed his inner nervousness.
Xu An made a quick judgment, his eyes firm and decisive, like a commander on the battlefield.
"Tang Xi, Zhao Lin, you stay by Kylo's side, ensure his safety, and fully assist him in cracking the secret of the runes. Li He, come with me and take a look!"
The two men approached the entrance of the stone chamber cautiously, taking every step slowly and cautiously, as if a trap might be triggered at any time.
The moment they stepped out of the stone chamber, they were stunned by the scene before them.
I saw a huge mechanical beast standing in front of me. Its height was almost level with the entrance of the stone chamber, and its huge body occupied most of the space.
Its body is covered with all kinds of strange mechanical devices, sharp gears, flashing pipes, and crystals emitting strange red light.
These devices are intertwined with each other, forming a picture that is full of technology but also creepy.
Chapter 488 What on earth happened inside!!!
The mechanical beast's head turned, and it emitted a low roar. The sound seemed to come from the depths of hell, carrying endless deterrence, as if it was demonstrating to them.
"What the hell is this?" Li He couldn't help swallowing, his voice trembling slightly. His legs were slightly bent, ready to avoid the attack of the mechanical beast at any time.
Xu An took a deep breath, his eyes fixed on the mechanical beast's every move, trying to find flaws in its actions.
"Whatever it is, don't act rashly." As he spoke, he quietly observed the mechanical beast's movements, trying to find its weaknesses. 14's eyes revealed calmness and wisdom.
Inside the stone chamber, Kylo had already begun the intensive work of deciphering the runes.
He took out the portable computer he carried with him, and the computer's shell gleamed with metallic luster under the light of the energy tower.
He connected it to a rune area on the energy tower, and a large amount of data and codes quickly appeared on the computer screen. These data and codes flashed quickly on the screen like jumping elves.
"Hurry, help me analyze this data." Kailuo shouted to Zhao Lin and Tang Xi, his voice a little sharp because of his anxiety.
The three people's fingers were moving rapidly on the computer keyboards and instruments, their eyes were fixed on the screen, not missing any details, and beads of sweat were on their foreheads. In the tense atmosphere, time seemed to stand still.
Time passed by minute by minute. Outside, Xu An and Li He were in a stalemate with the mechanical beast, and the atmosphere was extremely tense.
The air seemed to be frozen, and every breath seemed particularly heavy.
Suddenly, the mechanical beast moved. It stretched out its huge mechanical legs and rushed towards Xu An and Li He. Its speed was so fast that people had no time to react. The ground shook violently under its footsteps.
Xu An quickly dodged sideways, his movements were agile and nimble, like a nimble cheetah.
At the same time, he shouted: "Li He, be careful to dodge and attack its leg joints!" The weapon in his hand emitted a beam of energy, shooting towards the legs of the mechanical beast. The beam drew a bright arc in the darkness.
Li He was not to be outdone. There was a fighting spirit burning in his eyes. Although he was afraid, he still mustered up the courage.
Several energy bombs were fired in succession, but the mechanical beast's shell seemed to have strong defensive capabilities. These attacks only made it pause for a moment, and then it continued to rush forward, with a fierce red light flashing in its mechanical eyes.
When Kylo in the stone chamber heard the noise outside, he became even more anxious.
His fingers tapped frantically on the keyboard, and beads of sweat rolled down his forehead and dripped onto the computer keyboard.
"Almost there, almost finding the key information." He muttered to himself, with a hint of nervousness and anticipation in his voice.
Just as the mechanical beast launched its 567th attack, Kylo suddenly shouted, "I found it!"
At this time, a mysterious masked man who had been hiding in the dark slowly appeared.
He was short, wearing a tattered cloak and a black mask on his face, revealing only a pair of eyes that flashed with a strange light.
He quietly watched everything that happened inside and outside the stone chamber, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing an imperceptible smile, as if he was planning something.
He held a small device in his hand, which emitted a faint purple light and echoed with the surrounding energy fluctuations, as if there was some mysterious connection.
At the top of the energy tower, the pillar of light that shot up into the sky suddenly changed.
Chapter 489: Mecha Genius Injured
Black lines began to appear within the originally pure light. These lines spread rapidly like blood vessels, as if a dark force was trying to erode this powerful energy.
As the black lines spread, the energy tower began to emit a low humming sound. The entire stone chamber trembled slightly at the humming sound, as if foreshadowing that a greater crisis was about to come.
During their confrontation with the mechanical beast, Xu An and Li He discovered that the mechanical beast's attack pattern seemed to have changed.
Instead of just charging blindly, it began to strategically dodge their attacks, and the frequency and strength of its attacks continued to increase.
An ominous premonition arose in Xu An's heart. He realized that this mechanical beast might not be as simple as it seemed on the surface, and there might be a more complicated conspiracy hidden behind it.
Inside the stone chamber, Zhao Lin and Tang Xi assisted Kai Luo while vigilantly observing the surrounding situation.
They found that the runes around the energy tower were flashing more violently, as if responding to the battle outside and the changes in the energy tower.
Zhao Lin's eyes revealed a hint of doubt. He turned to look at Kailuo, "Kailuo, the change in this rune is very strange. Could it be related to the abnormality of the mechanical beast outside and the energy tower?"
Kylo didn't answer immediately, his eyes fixed intently on the ever-changing data on the computer screen.
After a while, he slowly said, "It's very likely that these runes seem to be conveying some kind of information. I need to speed up the analysis of them."
As he spoke, his fingers began to move rapidly on the keyboard again, and the expression on his face became more solemn.
At the same time, the mysterious masked man quietly approached the energy tower.
His steps were light and silent, like a ghost.
As he approached the energy tower, the light of the purple device in his hand became stronger, as if it was undergoing some kind of energy resonance with the energy tower.
His eyes were fixed on the runes on the energy tower, and he was muttering to himself as if he was chanting some ancient spell.
Suddenly, the mechanical beast let out a deafening roar, and a powerful energy wave suddenly burst out from its body.
This wave was like a surging ocean wave, sweeping towards Xu An and Li He.
Xu An and Li He were pushed back repeatedly by the impact of this wave, with expressions of shock and fear on their faces.
"What is going on? How did this mechanical beast suddenly become so powerful?" Li He shouted in horror, his voice sounding very weak amid the whistling sound of energy fluctuations.
Xu An clenched his teeth, his eyes revealing determination and indomitable spirit.
"No matter how it changes, we can't retreat! We must find a way to hold on and wait for news from Kylo!" His voice was firm and powerful, which gave Li He a bit of courage.
In the stone chamber, Kylo finally succeeded in deciphering a key rune message.
A look of surprise appeared on his face. "I see! These runes record a method for controlling the energy tower. Perhaps it can also be used to deal with this mechanical beast!"
He shouted excitedly, his voice full of hope.
However, just as he was about to tell Xu An and Li He the good news, the mysterious masked man suddenly attacked.
He pressed a button on the device in his hand, and a beam of purple energy shot towards Kylo.
Kylo was unable to dodge and was hit by the beam. He flew backwards and fell to the ground unconscious.
Chapter 490 His eyes showed that he wanted to tear people into pieces!!!
Kylo's body was hit by a heavy hammer and flew straight backwards like a kite with a broken string, hitting the hard ground heavily, stirring up a cloud of dust.
The laptop in his hand also flew out, parts scattered all over the floor, and the screen flickered with a faint electric current, as if silently announcing the suddenness and cruelty of this incident.
The data code that had not yet been fully parsed on the screen was still jumping in vain, as if reminding everyone that what had just been interrupted was a critical breakthrough related to life and death.
"Kylo!" Xu An's roar resounded throughout the stone chamber. The anger and worry contained in the voice made the surrounding air tremble.
His eyes instantly became bloodshot, and he stared at the mysterious masked man like an angry lion.
His fists were clenched, his knuckles white, and his muscles were tense, like a fully drawn bow, ready to shoot a fatal arrow at any time.
The mysterious masked man succeeded in his attack and was about to take advantage of the chaos to approach the energy tower, but was stopped instantly by Xu An.
Xu An's body was as fast as lightning. He rushed forward in one step. The weapon in his hand emitted a sharp energy light and was directly placed in front of the mysterious masked man.
The energy fluctuations on the weapon were like surging waves, constantly rolling and roaring, as if venting Xu An's inner anger.
"Who are you? Why are you doing this!" Xu An's voice was icy cold, and every word seemed to be wrapped in frost. His chest heaved violently as he suppressed the anger surging in his heart.
His eyes were like sharp blades, piercing straight at the mysterious masked man, trying to find a flaw in the other party's reaction.
The mysterious masked man was slightly taken aback, as if he had not expected Xu An's reaction to be so quick. But he quickly calmed down and let out a strange laugh that echoed in the stone chamber, making people's hair stand on end.
There was a hint of pride and madness in his laughter, as if he was performing a performance that he thought was wonderful.
"It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that this energy tower cannot fall into your hands." The mysterious masked man's voice was hoarse and low, as if it came from deep underground.
He raised his head slightly, looked past Xu An and looked at the energy tower, his eyes revealing greed and desire.
Xu An snorted coldly, raised the weapon in his hand slightly, and made an attacking gesture: "Then let's try it and see if you have the ability."
He leaned slightly to the side, took steady steps, and assumed a fighting stance, his whole body emitting an inviolable aura.
Just when the two were on the verge of a fight, Li He rushed in from outside.
His face was covered in sweat and dust, his breathing was rapid, and the weapon in his hand still retained the energy aftermath of the battle with the mechanical beast.
He saw the unconscious Kylo, his face full of shock and anger: "What did this guy do! Captain, let me help you deal with him!"
As he spoke, he raised his weapon and stood beside Xu An.
His eyes burned with rage, and he wished he could tear the mysterious masked man into pieces immediately.
Seeing this, the mysterious masked man knew it was difficult for him to escape, so he made up his mind and pressed another button on the device in his hand.
In an instant, a purple shield appeared around his body, trying to block the attacks of Xu An and Li He.
A strange light flashed on the shield, like a layer of flowing liquid, wrapping him up.
Xu An and Li He looked at each other and attacked at the same time.
Energy beams rained down upon the mysterious masked figure, and the purple shield trembled violently under the attack, making a sizzling sound, as if it would shatter at any moment.
Chapter 491 The Mysterious Masked Man
Every time an attack hit, ripples would appear on the shield, and the light would dim a little.
After a fierce confrontation, Xu An spotted a weak point in the shield and struck with all his strength.
With a "bang", the purple shield shattered, and the mysterious masked man was also blown away by the powerful impact. The mask fell off, revealing his true face.
"It's you!" Xu An and Li He exclaimed at the same time.
It turns out that this mysterious masked man was a mechanical repairman they had met at the interstellar port. He had helped them repair equipment at that time, but unexpectedly - he now harbored evil intentions.
A trace of fear and regret appeared on his face, and his body curled up on the ground, trying to avoid the impending punishment.
After dealing with the mysterious masked man, Xu An didn't care about anything else and hurried to Kylo's side.
He walked quickly, almost crawling to Kylo's side, his face full of anxiety and concern.
He took out a small metal box from his arms. It contained a life-saving medicine that he had treasured for a long time, a precious medicine that could quickly repair physical injuries and restore consciousness.
The surface of the metal box is engraved with delicate patterns. Under the light of the energy tower, it flashes with a faint blue light, as if telling of its extraordinaryness.
Xu An opened the box, took out the pearl-like crystal pill inside, gently pried open Kailo's mouth, and put the pill in.
Then he held Kylo's hand tightly, his eyes full of anxiety and expectation.
His hands trembled slightly, and beads of sweat kept rolling down his forehead and dripping onto Kylo's arm.
Time seemed to stretch so long that every second felt like torture.
Finally, Kylo's eyelids moved and he slowly opened his eyes.
"Kylo, you're awake!" Xu An shouted excitedly, with a hint of sob in his voice.
A relieved smile appeared on his face and tears glistened in his eyes, which was the joy of surviving the disaster.
Kylo's eyes were still a little confused. He said weakly, "Captain... I... I found a way to control the energy tower..."
His voice was weak and intermittent, and he seemed to use up all his strength to say each word.
Xu An patted Kailuo's shoulder gently and said, "Don't talk for now. Have a good rest. Don't worry, we will figure out everything."
His voice was gentle yet firm, like a warm spring breeze, soothing Kylo's tired heart.
However, before they could breathe a sigh of relief, the mechanical beast outside the stone chamber roared again, shaking the earth.
· ····Request flowers····0
Immediately afterwards, a burst of dense footsteps was heard, and it seemed that more danger was approaching.
The footsteps were getting closer and closer, with a tight and heavy rhythm, like the footsteps of death, which made people shudder.
At this time, another girl who had been hiding in the corner - Lin Xiao, the young assistant at the base, slowly stood up.
