Zongman: Just selected the natural disaster to ascend and join the chat group

He swung the spear with great force, and wherever he went, enemies dodged. He aimed at an enemy and thrust the spear forward. A sharp blade of energy shot out, knocking the enemy back several meters.

The enemy fell to the ground, his face full of fear and pain.

Zhao Lin relied on his flexible body to roam around the edge of the battlefield, looking for the enemy's weaknesses.

His eyes were sharp, like a vigilant fox. He spotted a flaw in an Imperial soldier's energy shield and immediately took aim. A beam of energy accurately struck the enemy's vitals, causing him to scream and fall to the ground, struggling in agony.

Under the fierce attack of Xu An and others, the imperial soldiers were defeated and seriously injured.

Their defenses were completely ripped apart, and the soldiers' faces were filled with fear and despair. Some fled in all directions, not knowing where to go; others collapsed to the ground, unable to resist.

Elena Voss looked at the tragic scene in front of her, feeling shocked and angry.

Her eyes were filled with resentment and anger, she gritted her teeth, and the muscles on her face were twisted with anger.

She knew that if this continued, her troops would be wiped out.

She gritted her teeth and squeezed out a few words: "Retreat!"

Sound 4.0 is full of helplessness and unwillingness.

The imperial soldiers turned and fled as if they had been granted amnesty.

Their steps were hurried, pushing each other, trying to escape this terrible place as quickly as possible. Elena Voss, under the protection of several confidants, retreated awkwardly towards the exit of the stone chamber.

As she ran, she turned back and shouted fiercely, "Xu An, we haven't settled this score yet!"

Chapter 508 I heard a slight sound!!!

There was a gleam of hatred in his eyes, as if he wanted to eat Xu An alive.

Xu An looked at the fleeing enemy and made no attempt to pursue them.

His eyes revealed calmness and contemplation. He knew very well that this was only a temporary victory. The secret behind the energy tower explosion and Elena Voss's revenge would be the huge challenges they would face next.

He turned to look at the team members and said loudly, "Everyone, don't let your guard down for now. We need to quickly find out what happened after the energy tower exploded. We also need to be on guard against Elena Voss making a comeback at any time."

The voice was steady and powerful, bringing confidence and strength to the team members.

The team members nodded one after another, dragging their tired bodies, and began to search for clues in the ruins.

There was determination and perseverance in everyone's eyes. Although they were physically exhausted, their spirits were still high.

At this moment, the giant mechanical beast stood motionless, as if waiting for something.

The blue light around it was still flickering, and the creaking sound did not stop, as if telling an unknown secret.

As everyone dispersed to search for clues, mechanic Xiao Zhou suddenly discovered a strange device in the rubble.

His eyes suddenly lit up, and he shouted excitedly, "Captain, come and see! This seems to be something related to the energy tower!"

Xu An immediately walked over quickly, his eyes full of anticipation and curiosity.

"Xiao Zhou, are you sure?" he asked, with a hint of urgency in his voice.

Xiao Zhou carefully examined the device in his hand, a confident smile on his face. "I've been studying the energy tower for a long time. The structure of this device is very similar to the core components of the energy tower. There should be a connection."

Li He also came over, looked at the device, scratched his head and said, "How do I use this thing? Can it help us unlock the secret of the energy tower?"

Zhao Lin frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "In any case, this is definitely an important clue. Maybe we can use it to find the real reason why the energy tower exploded."

Xu An nodded and said, "Everyone, study it carefully and see if you can activate this device. Perhaps it will be the key to solving the mystery."

Just as everyone gathered together to study the device, a slight noise suddenly came from the other side of the stone chamber.

Tang Xi immediately raised his weapon alertly and shouted, "Who's there? Come out!"

Everyone's eyes instantly turned to the direction where the sound came from, and they saw a figure slowly walking out of the shadows.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on the figure that slowly walked out of the shadows, and every pair of eyes was filled with tension and curiosity.

As it gradually became clearer, a huge guardian beast suddenly appeared before his eyes.

It exudes a faint green light all over its body, which seems to come from another mysterious world and carries a hint of chill.

Its body was as huge as a mountain. Every step it took caused the ground to tremble and raised a cloud of dust.

The guardian beast looks ferocious and terrifying, which makes people shudder.

The triangular head is raised high, like a volcano ready to erupt at any time.

There is a sharp horn on its forehead, flashing with a cold light, as if it can easily pierce through all obstacles.

Its eyes were like two burning will-o'-the-wisp flames, emitting a scarlet light. That light revealed endless vigilance and hostility, as if warning everyone not to approach.

The bloody mouth opened slightly, revealing two rows of sharp fangs, each of which was extremely sharp, as if it could easily tear apart anything that came close.

Chapter 509: The Guardian Beast of the Energy Tower

Its sturdy limbs are covered with sharp barbs, making a creepy "creaking" sound when it moves, like an old machine struggling to operate.

Xu An's heart tightened. He knew very well that he must not panic at this moment.

A hint of nervousness flashed across his Ling Meng O Ba wgu 氿山[;VIgui's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by calmness.

He slowly lowered the weapon in his hand, his movements gentle and slow, fearing that he would cause misunderstandings with the guardian beast.

Then he raised his hand, signaling his teammates not to act rashly.

He took a deep breath, his chest heaving violently, and tried to calm himself down.

Then, he took steady steps and approached the guardian beast little by little.

He took every step carefully, his eyes always watching the guardian beast's every move, trying to find a way to comfort it from its reaction.

"Don't be afraid, we mean no harm." Xu An said softly, his voice low and gentle, as if he was talking to an old friend.

He had a sincere look on his face and friendly eyes, trying hard to make the guardian beast feel his kindness.

The guardian beast seemed to sense Xu An's approach, and its ears stood up high, like two sharp daggers.

Immediately afterwards, a low roar was heard, shaking the surrounding air. The sound echoed in the stone chamber, making people terrified.

Its front paws scratched the ground restlessly, stirring up a cloud of dust, and its sharp barbs scratched deep marks on the ground, as if it was declaring its territory.

Xu An did not retreat. He continued to move closer, whispering some soothing words. Although he was not sure whether the guardian beast could understand, he hoped to convey his friendliness in this way.

Slowly, the guardian beast's roar gradually weakened, from deafening to a low whimper.

Its eyes were no longer so aggressive, but it still stared at Xu An vigilantly, with the scarlet light in its eyes flickering slightly.

At this moment, Kylo looked at the guardian beast, and a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.

His eyes suddenly lit up and an expression of excitement appeared on his face.

He walked quickly to Xu An, his steps quick and powerful.

He whispered, "Captain, I think the appearance of this guardian beast is closely related to the energy tower."

"Perhaps it's not just guarding the Power Tower, but also the secrets behind it. We can try to communicate with it. Perhaps it can guide us to find a safe way to obtain the Power Tower's power."

After hearing this, Xu An nodded slightly, with a thoughtful glimpse in his eyes.

He felt that what Kylo said made some sense.

He looked at the guardian beast again, with a hint of anticipation in his eyes.

"We are here to find the truth, not to destroy." He said to the guardian beast, his voice firm and sincere, with a hint of unquestionable power in his tone.

Perhaps Xu An's sincerity worked, the guardian beast's body was no longer tense, and its originally raised back slowly flattened.

It slowly lowered its head, and its originally upright ears gradually drooped down (the king's), appearing much more docile.

The scarlet light in its eyes slowly faded, replaced by a gentle luster, like the surface of a calm lake.

It no longer roared, but just stood there quietly, as if waiting for something.

Xu An was delighted when he saw this.

The corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile.

He turned to look at the team members, his eyes full of encouragement, and signaled everyone to slowly approach the beam.

Chapter 510 is much more complicated than imagined!!!

The team members walked forward cautiously, taking light steps, for fear of disturbing the guardian beast.

Their eyes were fixed on the guardian beasts, and their weapons were held loosely in their hands, just in case.

When the team members approached, Xu An spoke again: "We need your help. Tell us the secret of the energy tower."

His voice was full of expectation and his eyes flashed with hope, as if he saw a ray of light in the darkness.

The guardian beast seemed to understand his words. It slowly raised its front paws, its movements slow and solemn.

Its front paw pointed towards the ruins of the energy tower. At that moment, the entire stone chamber seemed to fall silent, and everyone's eyes followed its paw...

At this moment, the timid technician 600 Amin, who had been hiding at the back of the team, couldn't help but mutter, "Is this... is this really going to work? What if it suddenly changes its mind?"

His voice trembled slightly, his face was full of worry, and his hands were tightly clutching the corners of his clothes.

Li He glared at him and said, "A Ming, don't scare yourself. The captain knows what's going on."

Li He's eyes were full of trust in Xu An. He patted Amin on the shoulder, trying to calm him down.

Zhao Lin also said, "Yes, now we have no other choice but to trust the captain and this guardian beast."

There was a hint of helplessness in his eyes, but more of determination.

Xu An ignored their conversation, his entire attention focused on the guardian beast.

He took a step towards the ruins of the energy tower, and the guardian beast did not react abnormally.

He took another step forward and asked softly, "Are the answers we want there?"

The guardian beast stood quietly, as if giving a positive response.

As Xu An got closer and closer to the ruins, the team members' hearts were in their throats.

Suddenly, the guardian beast let out a slight low growl, which was completely different from the previous roar and was more like a guidance.

Xu An stopped, looked back at the team members, and said, "Everyone follow me closely and be careful."

The team members nodded and followed him closely.

When they arrived at the ruins of the energy tower, they found that although the energy fluctuations here had weakened, they were still very strange.

Xu An squatted down and began to carefully examine the wreckage in the ruins.

Kylo also squatted down. He picked up a fragment that was emitting a faint light and said, "Captain, the energy of this fragment is very special. It is different from what we have encountered before."

Xu An took the fragment, examined it carefully, and said, "It seems that the secret of this energy tower is more complicated than we imagined."

Just as they were studying the fragments, the guardian beast slowly walked over to them, lowered its head, and sniffed the remains gently with its nose.

Suddenly, the guardian beast's eyes flickered again, but this time it was not a scarlet hostile light, but a mysterious blue light.

It made a series of low humming sounds, as if conveying some message.

The low roar of the guardian beast echoed in the stone chamber, as if telling a long-forgotten secret. Xu An and his team held their breath, trying to grasp a clue from this mysterious sound.

"It...it seems to be guiding us." Kylo whispered, his eyes shining with excitement.

Xu An nodded, his gaze fixed on the guardian beast. It slowly raised its front paw and pointed at a large stone slab deep within the ruins. The surface of the stone slab was covered in strange runes, emitting a faint glow.

Chapter 511 The Long-Forgotten Secret

　"There's something there!" Zhao Lin exclaimed and walked over quickly.

Everyone followed closely behind him, arriving in front of the stone slab. Xu An reached out and touched the runes, feeling a faint energy wave from his fingertips. He frowned slightly, thinking to himself, "These runes... seem to be an ancient code."

"Captain, let me try." Technician Amin mustered his courage and stepped forward, pulling a small decoder from his backpack. His hands were still trembling, but his eyes showed a sense of determination.

Amin placed the decoder on the stone slab and began to operate it quickly. With a "beeping" sound, the runes gradually illuminated, and the stone slab slowly moved away, revealing a hidden underground passage.

"Great!" Li He patted A Ming's shoulder excitedly, "You are quite reliable at the critical moment!"

Amin smiled sheepishly, a blush spreading across his face.

Xu An took a deep breath and said, "Everyone be careful, let's go in and take a look."

The passage was dim and narrow, and the air was filled with a stale smell. The guardian beast trailed behind the group, its light illuminating the path. After walking for about ten minutes, they arrived at a spacious underground space.

The scene before them stunned everyone—a complete energy tower stood in the center of the space, emitting a soft light, completely different from the one that exploded before.

"This is the real energy tower!" Kylo said excitedly, "The previous explosion might be some kind of protection mechanism to confuse invaders."

Xu An nodded, secretly glad in his heart: "Fortunately we didn't give up, otherwise we would have missed the real treasure."
