My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely! - Chapter 1490

[1481. Chapter 1458: Curved attack, unusual movement of city beasts!]

boom.

Just at this time when there was wind, rain, lightning and thunder.

In the Baiduan Mountains, a thick bolt of lightning, like the wrath of a god, suddenly cut through the sky and happened to hit the city beast that was as tall as a mountain.

The body of the city beast is huge and bulky, and its skin is covered with thick black moss, making it look ancient and weathered.

However, under the bombardment of lightning, the black moss instantly faded a lot, as if it had been deprived of its life by some mysterious force.

The huge body of the city beast trembled slightly, and its steps that were originally crawling forward slowly came to a halt.

It seemed to sense some unknown threat, or it fell into a brief confusion after being struck by the lightning.

And at this moment, thousands of meters in the sky, a pair of dark green eyes suddenly opened on the body of the city beast.

Those eyes were like two cold stars in the abyss, emitting a strange and deep aura, making the already tense atmosphere even more solemn.

“Light”

A meaningless roar sounded in the sky, thick and deep. For a moment, even the rumbling thunder was suppressed by this sound, as if the whole world was trembling with it.

Light is the nemesis of the shadow beasts.

Before they reach adulthood, young shadow beasts will die if exposed to light for more than half an hour.

Even after adulthood, people still cannot be exposed to light for a long time.

Only the shadow beasts who have ignited the divine fire can avoid the damage caused by light and keep their bodies moving in the light.

In addition, some special creatures living there can be immune to light damage before the divine fire is ignited.

But obviously, the city beast is not among them.

Lightning containing unparalleled energy fell, and just one bolt of lightning eliminated the half-formed shadow beast in the city beast’s body.

Without this half, the state of the city beast began to become unstable, visibly.

It began to stop, began to hesitate, and began to wonder why it was here.

Even though the possessed shadow beasts were trying their best to suppress it, they were still unable to resist the thought.

“Damn it! Didn’t they say we shouldn’t travel in this kind of weather? Why are we still taking the risk and moving forward?”

Three strange-looking aliens walked out from the camping team that followed the city beast.

There are willow trees more than three meters high, with swaying branches and dancing green leaves. The roots under their feet are coiled as flexibly as living things, like countless tiny legs, pushing their huge trunks forward slowly.
There are vultures with wings but walking on the ground with two legs. Their sharp eyes are always scanning the surroundings, revealing a majesty that should not be underestimated.

There is also a seemingly ordinary boulder with a mottled surface covered with traces of time, but what is surprising is that it has hands, which it uses to support itself on the ground and move forward.

After quickly approaching the city beast, the willow tree was the first to place its roots on the surface of the city beast.

A hint of light green energy began to surge forward, covering the body of the city beast, but in just a moment, all the energy was absorbed by the city beast.

And in less than three seconds, the lush green leaves on the willow branches withered quickly.

By the time he reacted and pulled away the branches, only one tenth of the green color on the branches remained, and the main trunk also exuded a rotten and withered yellow smell.

“This is terrible! This is terrible!”

I don’t know if it was because his vitality was drained or he was frightened by the city beast’s current state.

The willow tree took several steps back and fell to the ground. The leaves on its branches kept shaking, making a rustling sound.

“The damage this time is much more serious than last time. It will take at least three thousand units of energy to repair it!”

“What, three thousand units? How is this possible?”

“We’re screwed! If this is reported to the clan, I’m afraid they’ll kill the three of us first!”

The vultures and the big rocks also put their limbs into contact with the city beasts one after another.

Compared to willow trees, their strength should be slightly weaker.

After being hit for only about two seconds, the vulture took four or five steps back and fell heavily to the ground.

His golden feathers began to fall off as the rain washed them, and in the blink of an eye he became a plucked chicken.

The big rock was in an even worse situation. After being drained dry by the shadow beasts inside the city, the stone skin on its surface began to peel off.

In just a few moves, the whole person’s size shrank several times.

“The last time I was struck by such a strong lightning, it only took 1,300 units of energy. How come it became 3,000 units this time? This doesn’t make sense.”

“The chieftain is probably going to kill us now. If we weren’t greedy for the benefits promised by the royal family, we wouldn’t have allowed the city beasts to travel in such bad weather.”

“What are you talking about now? We have to think about how to explain this matter quickly!”

The three of them talked one after another, and as they talked, Dashitou couldn’t help but started crying.

There are clear regulations within the Shadow Beast Clan regarding the use of city beasts.

These have been tested by the Shadow Beast Tribe with their lives over a long period of time, and they are of great significance.

In bad weather like now, once there are signs of it, the city beast must stop and go into hibernation.

This way, even if you are struck by lightning, you can minimize the damage to the shadow beasts inside.

However, in order to speed up the march of the city beasts and recruit more soldiers to the front line, the royal family secretly promised to give those in charge a large amount of special rewards.

Last time, the city beasts had to march in bad weather, and the clan leader was so angry that he drained all five people in charge of the march.

The city beast now requires more energy. If there is no way to solve the problem, the three of them will probably die.

But he felt wronged. He had not yet received the supplies promised by the royal family, but now he had to deal with this incident.

“If we report it to the tribe, all three of us will die. We might as well take a gamble at this time.” Willow twitched his trunk and whispered, “There is too much energy accumulated in the city beast’s body now, and our tribesmen can’t suppress it. As long as we can find a way to consume the energy of the city beast, we can neutralize this gap.”

“That’s three thousand units of energy.” The vulture hesitated and looked at the willow tree.

As long as you can avoid exposing the truth for the time being and find an excuse after a while, maybe you can get away with it.

After all, when it comes to research on this ancient creature, the Shadow Beast Clan can only say that they are familiar with it, but are far from fully understanding it.

Even now, we still haven’t fully figured out how to control the city beasts.

“We have to negotiate with the royal family. The damage this time was their idea. It doesn’t make sense for us to be responsible for it all.”

“Three thousand units.” Liu Shu said in a deep voice: “To consume so much energy, we only need to station 120,000 aliens inside the city beast. This is not difficult for the royal family. It is also a part of recruiting soldiers anyway.”

“That’s right. There are so many alien tribes in the Baiduan Mountains. It shouldn’t be difficult to recruit 120,000 aliens.”

With the hope of survival, the big stone also became more energetic.

Fortunately, the city beasts suffered heavy losses in the Baiduan Mountains. Even if they cannot move temporarily, it will not affect the recruitment of soldiers.

If it were outside the mountains or somewhere else, it would be like crying out to heaven and earth for help, and no one would be able to help.

“Let’s go and report to the royal family. It just so happens that the foreign tribes in the Baiduan Mountains are not cooperating, so the tribe will probably not doubt the status of the city beasts in the short term.”

Liu Shu was the team leader, and after deciding on the plan, the other two had no objections.

Braving the wind and rain, the three of them hurried to the camp. In less than half an hour, the vulture took off into the sky and flew away.

“You want to start with the city beast, how confident are you?”

Weighing the risks and benefits, if we can take down the city beast, it is worth it even if it means taking a huge risk.

Not to mention the distant past, the city beast itself is a special tool that is no less powerful than a demigod.

Not to mention those special effects, if the city beast could be controlled to roll on the ground, it would probably be able to crush thousands or tens of thousands of aliens in an instant.

“It’s difficult for me to describe the specific situation, but one thing is certain. If we can obtain the spells to control and use the city beasts from the shadow beast tribe, the success rate of the operation should be greatly improved.”

“A spell?”

Connie repeated in a low voice, thoughtfully, as if chewing on the deeper meaning behind the word.

“It’s not difficult to get the spells, but the problem is that these spells that can open the inner space of the City Beast can only be granted to those aliens who have successfully entered the City Beast. Moreover, these spells can only be circulated among the aliens inside the City Beast. Once leaked to aliens outside, the leaker will immediately suffer an irresistible death punishment. Therefore, it is difficult for us to find out these spells, but it is not completely impossible.”

“First, you have to enter the City Beast once more, but I think it will be difficult for you to capture aliens for interrogation and learn these spells from them without attracting the attention of the Shadow Beast.”

“Second, I will send people into the City Beast and have them find a way to collect these spells. I will have them lurk in there and find a way to collect these spells. After a while, you can find a way to come again, enter the City Beast and find them, and you will be able to directly learn these spells.”

“Are you sure that the people you send in are reliable?” Su Mo looked up at her.

Having already had experience with beasts entering and leaving the city, Su Mo had no fear at all about going in again.

But the problem is that the transmission interval can only last for a maximum of one day.

If you can’t resolve this matter within a day and continue to stay, you will have to stay here for the next month.

This price is definitely unacceptable and will directly result in the loss of tens of thousands of special survival points.

“It should be possible. As long as you mention the name of the gods, many impossible things can be easily achieved. If you are worried, I can go in. Anyway, as long as you can capture the city beast, it should not be difficult to let me out.”

Connie smiled, as if to prove her determination.

“No, you still have to help me collect information from the aliens. You can’t waste time inside the city beasts.”

Su Mo shook his head, “I will go to the city beast again tomorrow morning and make a decision then.”

It was already late and it was raining heavily outside, so he didn’t think of using the cover of darkness to get through.

For the city beasts that are several thousand meters tall and over 500 meters in diameter, even if the aliens deploy several protective teams around them, they still cannot achieve all-round monitoring.

As long as you master the spells for entering and exiting, you can find any opportunity to enter the city beast.

“Okay, you take a rest. I’ll go talk to the alien teams near the city beasts and find out their recruitment conditions.”

Connie nodded, stood up and left the cabin.

Su Mo lay down for a while, but he couldn’t fall asleep anyway, so he just sat up and leaned against the head of the bed.

It can be seen that Connie has indeed made careful preparations to welcome his arrival. Even the furnishings in the room are exactly the same as those in his room in the underground shelter.

Familiar with the rough wooden headboard, Su Mo turned around and gently stroked the wood burrs with his fingers.

Connie, you should be able to believe it.

It’s not just because she is the high priest of Oreo and has the constraints of the power system.

Moreover, the path that the aliens are taking now and the goals they want to achieve are seriously different from her goals.

She had long ceased to live for the gods, so she naturally didn’t care about winning the boat ticket as a reward for the gambling fight.

After confirming this, Su Mo took out the memory crystals left by Connie and placed them in a row in front of him.

There are twenty-four in total.

It records all the valuable information Connie has collected during this period.

Compared to the human recording method, alien races place more emphasis on inheritance. A large amount of cultivation information is often passed down from generation to generation through this memory crystal.

Just stick it on your forehead and you can quickly get the information recorded inside.

Of course, this method is not without disadvantages. Once too much information is received in a short period of time, it is easy to cause memory disorganization.

Su Ma first picked up the smallest one and put it on his forehead for inspection.

Buzz.

The crystal rippled, the surrounding environment darkened slightly, and a picture of about one hundred and fifty inches appeared in front of my eyes.

It looks like Connie’s first-person perspective, and the picture shows a stepped parliament hall.

Su Mo’s eyes subconsciously focused on the center of the parliament hall, and unexpectedly he saw an altar that only humans would use.

On the altar, there were not only curling clouds of incense smoke and fruits and vegetables laid out as offerings, but in the center there was also a blurry human figure with a face shrouded in green light.

Hundreds of alien races in the parliament hall seemed to be performing some kind of performance art, worshipping towards the center of the parliament hall in the manner of humans.

One, two, three!

A black gas swept up and rushed towards the people on the altar, and the statue exploded into powder.

“What is this doing? Isn’t this a sacrifice?”

Su Mo was stunned.

But soon, his expression became interesting, especially when he saw the green statue reappear on the altar.

At this time, the green light covering the statue’s face had faded, revealing a familiar face underneath.

“Fuck, these aliens are worshipping me?”

I have to say that this scene is indeed very impactful.

Hundreds of ferocious-looking aliens were worshipping a human statue devoutly, which was very similar to the spells in Chinese mythology.

Although he didn’t know why the statue was shattered and then restored after being worshipped, Su Mo could probably guess that this was again due to the system shielding.

“Fortunately, I didn’t save survival points after my shield was destroyed. This is really useful!”

It can not only prevent detection by the game, but also block a series of causal attacks and mental attacks.

As this thought flashed through his mind, Su Mo’s eyes changed slightly as the picture changed again.

It is another new way of worship.

This time it was no longer a statue, but a straw man that looked 80% similar to him.

The alien race sent a representative, who reverently lifted up the straw man and pierced all over its different parts with seven-foot-long black nails.

There were seven times in total, but when it came to the last time, the result was still the same as the worship method.

The straw man exploded and disappeared along with the black nails, but reappeared after a few breaths.

“It really is a curse. The alien race can actually use a roundabout way of fighting?”

Looking at the aliens who were chattering and preparing to celebrate just a second ago, they became silent as if someone was strangling them.

Su Mo chuckled and couldn’t help laughing.

Being able to curse him in this way, Wei decided that after the last game, the aliens would have no cards left to play!
