Chapter 3 Trap?(1/2)

"Hurry up!" May looked back and shouted to speed me up.

"It's already the fastest. This is a submarine, not a rocket. How can you get me up quickly?"

"Don't all the things in your guild be fast?"

"No matter how weird it is, there is a limit!"

"Then can you summon something to kill the guy behind?" May asked.

"If I had a hundred ways to kill it somewhere else, but here I could only be killed by it."

In fact, the thing chasing us is not a high-level monster, but a kind of insect. But don't associate it as a small insect. This guy's mouth is almost as thick as the entire passage. As for the length, we are not clear yet, but it will not be too short, because there is not a giant tube insect I have seen with a body length of less than ten meters. This thing is not high at level, but this is its home court. Creatures larger than it cannot be used here, and it is difficult for those smaller than it to exert combat effectiveness in such places. The battle settings in "Zero" are very complicated, and factors such as terrain and climate have a great impact on combat effectiveness. Therefore, it is not surprising that the low-level ones cannot defeat the high-level ones. As long as you take advantage of the geographical location, it is not surprising that the dragon is killed by the small insects.

Our current situation is a bit like a dragon trapped in the shallows. The guy behind him is just the same width as the passage. Those who are larger than him cannot summon it, and those who are smaller will definitely be swallowed in one bite. As for magic, this ghost place has no time to stop and cast spells.

"Pay attention to the front." May suddenly screamed.

As soon as I pulled the joystick, the little dolphin twisted suddenly and almost brushed a stone pillar standing in the passage. "Huh, what the hell is this?"

With a loud bang, the water behind me became turbid, and the monster hit the stone pillar. We thought it was safe now, but who knew that a roar suddenly came from the water. Then I saw the guy rushing straight towards me at twice the speed before. I quickly turned the switch to high speed, and as soon as I stepped on the pedal, the entire ship immediately shot out like an arrow.

May grabbed the handrail on the boat and shouted nervously: "You are thinking of a solution!"

"You drive, I'll find a way."

"Ah? I'm driving? But I can't?"

"There are only a few handles in total. You should watch it for such a long time. Come and change hands quickly, I'll kill the guy behind you."

"Okay!" May first stepped over one leg to help me step on the pedal, then took over the handle, and I turned over and sat back. He immediately took over my position. "This time you should have a way to deal with the guy behind me, right?"

"Of course. Our Frost Rose Alliance is not easy to mess with." As I said that, I took out a metal can like a beer barrel from the Phoenix Dragon Space, then pressed it down and let it go. The thing immediately bounced up and a crystal keyboard appeared in the middle. I pressed it a few times, then raised the thing and stuffed it outside the hull. Our boat was very fast, and the can was thrown away from the hull as soon as it left the hull. The monster behind swallowed the thing in one bite regardless.

I shouted to May, "Stay."

As soon as I finished shouting, I heard a loud bang, and our ship shaking violently, and many rock fragments flew through us and flew forward to us. While May gritted his teeth and held the joystick, he kept looking back to see if there were any big rocks flying over. It was easy to dodge.

After finally leaving the explosion range, I finally breathed a sigh of relief and slowed down the ship. "Huh, why didn't you take out the bomb with such great power?"

"It's because it's so powerful that I didn't take it out. The passage must have been blown up now, and it's a problem for us to go back. If it weren't for being eaten if I didn't throw it away just now, I wouldn't have been lazy!"

"That's it? Then how can we go back now?"

"You started thinking about how to go back before you even finished the task. Don't you think it's too early?"

"I'm called planning ahead."

I smiled without comment, and then observed around. "Hey, May, have you found the problem?"

May nodded: "This passage is quite strange. The length of this passage has obviously exceeded the width of that island. That is to say, if the passage passes through the island, we should have come out from the other side of the island. But we are still in the passage now. This is obviously an abnormal situation."

"Yes, you guys are smart enough." I continued May's words: "There are four possible reasons now. First, because the channel is tilted downward, we may be moving under the seabed. Second, there is an illusion structure in the channel, and we are going around in circles. Third, there is a compression space in the channel, so it is longer than what appears outside. Fourth. The channel itself is a portal, and we have already arrived somewhere else."

May immediately stretched out a hand and gave a thumbs up: "I admire you, I am so thoughtful, but can you be sure which possibility is?"

"The first type is definitely wrong, because although this passage is inclined downward, the slope is not large, so we would not be able to slant downwards under the seabed. If we were really moving downwards, we would have penetrated into the sea long ago."

"How do you know that the slope is not enough? Such a long channel. Human vision is easy to produce errors, and there is no detailed data. It is impossible to calculate how far we have gone down."

"No need to forget it, we only dropped more than seven meters, which is far from the depth of the seabed." I have a colonized electronic brain, and its main function is to make up for the shortcomings in the precise calculation of the human brain, so my eyes are free of errors, and the trigonometric function is also very fast, so there will be no errors at all.

"Are you considered a special ability? That's so sure?"

"Even if it is a special ability! What about the other three possibilities? We still don't know our situation?"

"The second situation is also impossible, because I have a magic pet who is the goddess of illusion. I have been borrowing her anti-illusion ability before, so it is certain that we were taking a real path before, and there was no illusion at all. In addition, my precise calculation ability also tells me that the passage we were walking on is actually very straight, and now the angle between the entrance is no more than three degrees, and it can basically be considered a straight line."

"What about the two possibilities after that? Is there a way to determine which one?"

"It's probably not possible to confirm, but the last one is more likely."

"Why?"

"Because the compression space is usually a special ability for the storefront of the city. Although the possibility of appearing in the wild is not ruled out, the possibility is not high. Besides, the compression space only compresses the space, not infinitely large. In addition, we are in a straight line, and it will always end. In this way, what is the use of arranging compression space here besides consuming more fuel? In contrast, the possibility of being the last one is relatively high, and we should be transported to some other place."

"That's clear."

"What's clear?" May's words puzzled me.

May explained: "Didn't I say before that I have a magic pet that keeps telepathic with me?"

"Yeah, what's wrong?"

"He got to a very wide red area after leaving here. I couldn't understand what that was. If you said the teleportation channel was real, then I think I know where he was."

"Where did you?" I didn't react for a moment.

May pointed at the top of my head, and I looked up instinctively, and then I found that there was a hole on my head, but I quickly thought of what he was talking about. "You mean that your magic pet has arrived at the Red Planet, right?"

"I think yes, I really couldn't imagine where there is such a large red area besides it."

This is not the first time I have been to the Red Planet, but I am very strange. The enemies in the pursuit of Yinxue will actually run to the Red Planet. Are they creatures on the Red Planet? The creatures on the Red Planet that arrived at the Earth from the space cracks were ugly and had a strange shape. I had inferred that there should be a leader race with high intelligence on the Red Planet. Now it seems that Yinxue is chasing members of the leader race. As for the whole race, whether that race is so powerful. Or is there only a few so powerful, it is definitely impossible to determine now.

"It seems that this trip will take some trouble!" I said to myself.

"What's the meaning?"

I looked at May and explained, "Nothing. I've been to the Red Planet once before, and that place is super dangerous. There is almost no danger-free creature. I encountered almost all local creatures that can fight, and they are very aggressive and indiscriminate. They fight when they see it."

"Fortunately I'm not here to fight." May said, taking out a pearl. "This is my mission item. It can guarantee that the creatures here are completely invisible for a certain period of time, so I am safe. Unfortunately, this thing is only useful to the mission personnel. If I had known that you would come here, I would have taken you to apply for a mission. In that case, this pearl would have invisible you too."

"Does your task have a time limit? Otherwise, you can lend it to me first and repay it when I come back?"

May shook his head: "Although there is no time limit for my mission, I have said just now that this thing is only valid for mainland personnel in the mission. As long as this one is, my mission companions can be invisible. But the problem is that you came after I received the mission, so you are not considered a mission member. It is useless for you to take this thing."

"It's really a failure!" I shook my head and sighed.

May suddenly screamed. "Be careful ahead."

I looked up suddenly. I saw a big mouth biting towards me, which scared me to push the joystick. The bow of the ship suddenly went down and drilled under the monster's big mouth. "Huh, what's the thing?" I looked back and looked at it. It seemed that the thing didn't seem to catch up, but just shouted at us from a distance.

Mayyue said: "That guy seems to be unable to move, so scared to death..." Mayyue suddenly turned backwards and turned to the second row of seats.

"Sorry." I tied the boat again and continued, "Hurry up."

"What? Ah..." Mayu, who had just gotten up from his seat, fell down again. When he got up again, he did not complain to me, but pointed at the front and shouted: "Beware."

"No need to remind me, I've seen this a long time ago. This thing is everywhere."

What we encountered was a very strange creature. We don't know if we saw it all. Anyway, this thing only has one head and one neck exposed outside the rock, and the other part is inside the rock wall. Their necks are about four or five meters long, and their heads are about the same size as a car. If the passage here had not become quite wide, we would never be able to avoid those guys.

May looked at the monster left behind by us and said in lingering fear: "Fortunately I avoided it. My demon pet didn't see these guys at all when he passed by here."

"Maybe they all retracted their heads back into the hole wall at that time. If I were a monster, I wouldn't have stuck my head out when Yinxue passed by here."

"That's right." May nodded, and then suddenly said nervously: "By the way, slow down quickly. I remember that after my magic pet passed by here, the passage that began to tilt upwards was in front of me."

"Why didn't you say it earlier?" When May said that, I had already seen the sudden turning passage in front of me. I was so scared that I pulled the joystick back. Fortunately, the little dolphin's control system reacted quickly and forced the bow to stand up. I stepped on the pedal to the bottom. The bow of the boat rose rapidly, and the whole boat rushed forward with a loud bang, hitting the bottom of the tunnel that suddenly rose up.

"Ah! Water is in!" Suddenly, seven or eight water columns appeared in the boat, but the water inflow speed is not too fast. "Hey, why is your boat so unsolid?"

"Such water pressure and the impact force, all ships will leak. The failure to disintegrate on the spot has already shown that the quality of our guild's ship is good."

"But if this continues, it will sooner or later flood here."

"Don't be nervous, it's no big deal. I have a knight helmet with underwater breathing. I'll borrow one later. In Zero, the water pressure does not work for the player itself, so you don't have to worry about being crushed."

"My own helmet also has an underwater breathing function, I just want to know how the boat is? Can I still go?"

"It should still be able to move." As soon as I stepped on the pedal, the hull jumped upwards and then resumed a steady sailing. "Hehe. I said I can still move! By the way, are there any obstacles ahead? Tell me in advance if you have it so that you won't bump into something again."

"No more, you can get out of water by moving forward here."

"Ok." I stepped on the pedal to the bottom. The boat speed rose again, but I don't know if it was because of the impact just now that the thruster was damaged or the hull's water inlet became heavier. In short, the boat speed seemed to drop a lot. As the water inlet increased, the hull became heavier and slower, and finally it almost crawled forward. I looked at May helplessly. "I think we should go swimming? This speed is not as fast as I swim!"

"What should I do with this ship?"

“Just recycling.”

"Oh well."

We closed the helmet mask together, and after it was filled, the waterproof barrier on the top was closed, and the sea water filled the boat instantly. After we swam out, I opened the Phoenix Dragon Space and took the boat back. Phoenix Dragon can choose objects to enter the space, so the sea water will not be brought into the Phoenix Dragon Space.

"Let's go?" I spread my wings and slammed my wings, and the huge propulsion immediately made me rush up quickly.

May yelled anxiously below: "Hey, wait for me, I have no wings!"

I looked down at him, and simply went down to grab his shoulder from behind, then flapped my wings again and swam upwards with him. Although it was very difficult to flap the huge wings under the water, the propulsion force generated was equally strong. Therefore, our speed was quite fast.

"It seems to be here." May pointed to the rocks in front and said, "I remember the place where my magic pet left the water surface was the mouth of a stone-carved monster. Look at the four are the monster's teeth."

Just like May said, we passed the four sharp stones and turned around and looked. The exit of the passage was indeed a statue of a beast's head, but I didn't know what species it was. The monster's head was underwater. After we drilled out, we swam upwards five or six meters before finally coming out of the water.

After sticking my head out of the water, I looked around first. It seemed that it was not the ground, but in a cave. The space inside the cave was not large, but it was very stuffy and humid, obviously affected by this area of ​​water. There was a small piece of flat ground opposite the cave, and behind the flat ground was a diagonal upward passage, probably leading to the outside, because there was faint light coming down from above.

"Let's go up." I stepped on the water twice, and my whole body left the water surface. Then I spread my wings and slapped it hard a few times, and my whole body quickly left the water surface and flew up.

May followed me and swam to the shore, and I reached out and pulled him up.

“How to go the road ahead?”

"Go up from there." May pointed to the passage and I immediately walked over.

This passage was obviously not dug by hand because there were no steps on the ground. It was quite smooth. If it weren't for the nails on the soles of my boots, it would be difficult to get up. May could not climb up at all, and in the end I dragged it up with a dragon tendon rope. After leaving the passage, we can finally confirm that this is the red planet. The red desert that can't be seen around is the biggest sign here.
To be continued...
