Age of Beasts: I became Groudon

Chapter 182 Arrival at the destination

"Steel feet turned into propellers? This design is very interesting." Xu Tingting muttered looking at the flying steel caterpillar. It is a very novel design. I have never seen it before, and I don't know the design inspiration of this steel caterpillar. Where did it come from?

However, the appearance of this steel caterpillar flying is really cute. I don’t know if there is any novel design by the Development Bureau?

"Isn't it just a pile of rotten copper and scrap iron? I can smash them to pieces with one kick." The dark pegasus beast flapping its wings said when it heard this.

This steel caterpillar doesn't have a mind of its own, it's just a tool. He can kick it into parts with just a few kicks, so I don't see what's interesting about it.

"You can't say that, Dark Pegasus."

"The research and development of mechanical beasts is to create a large number of combat power. After all, it takes too much time and energy to upgrade the beasts." Xu Tingting explained with a smile.

It takes a lot of time and energy to cultivate a high-level royal beast.

What's more, after all the painstaking efforts and time spent, only one or a few can be cultivated, but the mechanical beasts are different, as long as there is technology and materials, they can be mass-produced.

This is expendable combat power for a country.

"Then these guys can only be called machines, not mechanical beasts." The dark pegasus murmured after hearing this. Machine bumps like this can only be called machines. The word Royal Beast?

"I have to ask the people who invented and created them. It's useless for you to tell me." Xu Tingting said, looking at the mechanical caterpillar that surpassed them: "Okay, Dark Pegasus, beast, let's not care about this matter Now, let’s hurry up and set off, you see the time we are chatting, it has surpassed us.”

"It can't surpass us, Tingting." The dark pegasus said, and it easily surpassed the steel caterpillar with its wings flapping.

The bugs on the ground also want to fly with him, compared to the horses in the sky, it is just a dream.

Bugs are bugs, even with mechanical wings.

"Ah Jian, this caterpillar flies so slowly, when can he fly faster?" asked the Flame Lizard King who had to wait a while to flap his wings to fly a certain distance.

As a violent fire-type beast, the thing he hates the most is waiting.

Do something or don't do it, if you want to do it, you should finish it quickly.

This procrastination really made the beast uncomfortable.

"Be patient, Flame Lizard King." Xu Jian said comfortingly, "Steel caterpillars can't fly fast, so we can fly slowly."

The speed of the steel caterpillar is indeed a bit confusing, but there is no way around it.

As a protection group, they have to take care of the customers. Unless they have a better means of transportation for them, otherwise, they should wait honestly.

"But it's flying too slowly, it really makes the beast's nest angry." The Flame Lizard King complained, and simply changed to gliding forward.

After doing this, the steel caterpillar was finally able to keep up.

"quack"

"quack"

Different from the irritability of the Flame Lizard King, the great white duck was flying slowly, quite happily.

And opened his throat and sang a song.

I just don't know what song he is singing?

Time went from daytime to evening, and a group of people who were in a hurry couldn't reach Tianshuangyuan after half a day's journey, so they had to take advantage of the night to hurry.

"huhu"

"huhu"

Under the illumination of the huge full moon, one after another grunts sounded from inside the steel caterpillar. The person in charge of the development bureau who was in charge of the survey was wandering in the dreamland at this time, completely ignoring the situation outside.

As the latest technological product, the steel caterpillar can follow the Flame Lizard King like a living thing.

And after being attacked, it will automatically launch an attack and defense according to the program.

And Yuan Jinghong and He Ping, who had caught up with the steel caterpillar, slept soundly at this moment.

"They slept soundly. Sure enough, the advantage of the mechanical beast is obvious." Xu Tingting glanced at the steel caterpillar and said, although the beast can sleep on it, she wants to sleep as comfortably as Yuan Jinghong and the others. , is still impossible.

"It's normal. This is a royal beast that will be used by civilians in the future. Of course, it has to be considered from the perspectives of safety and comfort." Cheng Kemei yawned and hugged Xu Tingting with both arms, so as not to fall off after dozing off up.

"That's true." Xu Tingting nodded when she heard the words, and after scanning her surroundings, she continued to move forward.

As the night got darker, the wind that blew up gradually became colder.

The nights in December were very cold, and in the forest below, molting night crows were calling from time to time.

The green ground also gradually turned into pale ground. Seeing this scene, Xu Tingting understood that they had come to the north.

Winter in the north comes earlier than in the south, and it is surrounded by ice and snow for most of the year.

This reminded her of the days in Winter City last year.

"Little sister, we have already reached the north, do you want to sit on my Flame Lizard King? It's very hot on the Flame Lizard King's back." Xu Jian asked Xu Tingting after the Flame Lizard King approached the Dark Pegasus Beast.

Now the temperature has dropped to a few degrees below zero all of a sudden, can the little girl still wear an autumn coat?Or do it on the back of his imperial beast.

"Brother, you forgot that I made a contract with Gulardo, isn't it afraid of the cold? Sister Xi is quite cold now, I think you should take her over." Xu Tingting said after hearing the words, and broke away from Cheng who hugged her tightly. With Ke's hand, the dark Pegasus flew onto the back of the 30-meter-long Flame Lizard King, and put Cheng Ke's down: "Brother, please put a quilt on Miss Mo, she looks quite cold of."

"Then you? Aren't you going to take a break? We've just finished half the journey now." Xu Jian asked Xu Tingting after taking out a quilt from the savings bracelet.

"No, I can go without sleep for a week."

"Brother, if you want to rest, you can take a rest. I'll help you watch." Xu Tingting said after hearing this. She is now a senior beast master, and her mental and physical strength is not like that of the middle-level beast master like the elder brother. Teacher can.

It's casual for her to stay up for a few days and nights, so my brother doesn't have to worry about her getting tired, they should worry more about themselves.

"That's fine." Xu Jian nodded and said after hearing the words, he was indeed a little tired after working for a few days.

Still don't know what to expect on the next trip?It would be best if he could take a break.

"En." Xu Tingting nodded upon hearing this, and Xu Jian lay down and fell asleep.

The next day, after Xu Jian woke up slowly, he found that the position of the sun in the sky was not right. After careful questioning, he found out that he had slept until late afternoon.

"We are still 200 kilometers away from Tianshuangyuan, brother." Xu Tingting took out her mobile phone to check the location and said, "If there is no accident, we will arrive in two hours."

"Really? That's really great." Xu Jian yawned and said, looking at the steel caterpillar, he found Yuan Jinghong and He Ping staying inside the steel caterpillar.The two guys are playing with their mobile phones leisurely at this moment, looking how leisurely they want to be.

"These two guys are staying so comfortably, it looks like I have to find something for them to do when they reach their destination later." Xu Jian rubbed his chin and muttered to himself.

"Hey! Why do you suddenly feel a little cold? What's going on?"

He Ping and Yuan Jinghong, who were lying in the warm cabin, suddenly trembled in unison, wondering what was going on?

Obviously, the steel caterpillar's cabin has a heating function, so why does it suddenly feel cold?Could it be that it has been sitting in it for too long without moving the body?

But after looking at the snow and ice outside, he decided to let it be colder. It was better than going out to suffer.

The steel caterpillar continued to fly slowly, and the endless snow-covered plateau in the distance gradually appeared in their eyes, looking at the majestic mountains and the endless snow and ice.

Xu Jian couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief. After flying for so long, they finally arrived at their destination.

"Everyone, get ready to land, otherwise it will be too conspicuous in the sky, and it is easy to be spotted by the imperial beasts in Tianshuangyuan." Xu Jian shouted, and the steel caterpillar and the dark pegasus slowly descended from the sky .

When they came to the snow-covered ground, they found that the snow here was a bit scary, and half of their bodies were sunk in it when they stepped down.

"Isn't it the coldest time yet? Why is the snow here so heavy?" Yuan Jinghong asked after struggling to get out of the snow, looking at the big hole he left behind.

If I knew it earlier, I wouldn't have jumped out first, otherwise I wouldn't have stuck half of my body into the snow, like a big carrot.

"I don't know, but I don't need to be clear." Xu Jian sat on the back of the Flame Lizard King and finished tying his snowshoes, then jumped to the ground and said, "If you don't want to get stuck like a radish again? You should give the snowshoes to him quickly." Put it on."

"Otherwise, you won't be half-body going in later."

This is only the outermost part of Tianshuangyuan, and the snow has accumulated so deep. What if we are walking inside?It is estimated that if one foot goes down, the whole person will lie in it, right?

"Got it, got it." Yuan Jinghong asked Director Deng while tying his snowshoes: "Director Deng, your development bureau hasn't developed a mechanical beast walking in the snow? Otherwise, we can walk at the speed we are walking now. , I’m afraid it will take a long time to reach your destination.”

He had seen where they were going this time, and the good guy was far away. With their current situation, he wondered how long they would have to walk to get there?
"Of course there is." Director Deng said with a smile when he heard this, and the members of the survey team released trilobites made of steel.

"Is this a trilobite?" Looking at the mechanical beast that appeared in front of him, Cheng Kemei asked.

"Yes, it's the trilobite." Director Deng said with a smile: "The trilobite has a wide body and is a natural snowshoe. It will not sink in such a deep snow. environmental action."

"You can sit up and feel it, it's guaranteed to be much faster than you walking."

"Really? That's really great." Yuan Jinghong said happily when he heard the words, and couldn't wait to jump on the mechanical trilobite.

With such a good tool, don’t sit down, and walk when you’re full, isn’t this a disease of the brain?

"Sure enough, it's a high-tech product. It doesn't sink at all when you sit on it." He Ping said after moving the trilobite's back. The trilobite's back is made of soft rubber, and there is no frozen butt after sitting on it. However, it is very soft and comfortable.

No wonder the Development Bureau came to Tianshuangyuan to investigate, it really was prepared.

"Of course." Director Deng said with a smile: "Each mechanical trilobite is designed to bear two tons. Everyone sit on the back of the trilobite. Each trilobite can sit down." For five people."

"Of course, if there are more than five people, it will be a bit crowded."

"Yes." Cheng Kemang and Xu Tingting nodded, and got on the mechanical trilobite.

"Everyone, please spray this, it can cover up the smell on our body, so that it will not be easy to be discovered by the beasts in Tianshuangyuan."

After Xu Jian saw that everyone was sitting on the mechanical trilobite, he was not in a hurry to get up, but took out a bottle of spray and distributed it to everyone.

Tianshuangyuan is full of ice and snow. If they didn't spray some spray to cover up the smell, the traces would be too obvious.

It is easy to be targeted by carnivorous royal beasts.

"Okay, Xiao Xu." Director Deng took the spray and said with a smile: "Everyone, spray the spray on your body. The place we are going to go deep this time is very dangerous, and there is always nothing wrong with being careful."

"Yes, Director." After hearing this, the team members took the spray and sprayed each other.

After doing all this, Xu Jian got on the mechanical trilobite and headed towards the interior of Tianshuangyuan.

The snow-covered Tianshuangyuan was quiet, and all sounds were covered by the snow. Walking on the snow, everyone could only hear the rustling sound of mechanical trilobites rubbing against the snow.

"Such a wide road, it is estimated that a big beast walked out. Is it really okay for us to walk here in such a grand manner?" Xu Tingting said after looking around.

At a glance, the road they were on was smooth, without a tree on the way, and it looked like a jungle highway.

It must have been common if left outside.

But if it appeared in Tianshuangyuan, there would be a big problem.

Such a wide road can only be walked by a huge beast.

In other words, the beast path they are taking now is not good news. It will be bad if they bump into the pioneers of this path.

Tianshuangyuan is one of the four forbidden places in the world, you never know what beast you will meet in the next second?
It must be at the level of a king, or at the level of a legend.

In this kind of place, encountering a Legendary Royal Beast is as easy as meeting an acquaintance when you go home to buy vegetables.

"There is nothing for the time being." Xu Jian said after hearing this: "Little girl, take a look at the snow on the ground. You know that the imperial beast has not moved for a long time, otherwise the snow here will not As flat as the surroundings."

"Yes, and at present we have no other way to go except this way."

"The road will only become more difficult in the forest full of trees." Cheng Kemei followed suit.

If it's not impossible, they don't want to take such a big risk to walk the path opened by the beast.

But who made the forest too dense?Moreover, they can walk a few miles without seeing each other in a day, which will greatly delay their speed.

Leaving aside whether they are willing or not, Director Deng and his team wouldn't agree, right?Moreover, this path was chosen by the other party. Their protection team is only responsible for protection, and they are not in charge of things beyond protection.

"Yes, Miss Tingting, what they said is correct." Director Deng said with a smile after sitting close to the mechanical trilobite: "You don't have to worry too much, we have installed a large energy monitor, once there is a powerful The beast master will sound an alarm within five kilometers of us, as long as we avoid them in advance, nothing will happen."

"But it can't be 100% safe, right?" Xu Tingting said. Although the five-kilometer warning is good, for the powerful beast master, five kilometers is no different from one step.

"Yes, so this is why we need protection." Director Deng said with a smile.

What if warnings alone are useful?Then what are they doing asking each other to protect them if they have nothing to do?You can come to Tianshuangyuan with the warning, okay?
"What you said makes sense." Xu Tingting said weakly after hearing this.

What the other party said was so reasonable that he was really speechless.

"Miss Tingting, don't worry, there are no beast masters in such heavy snow, and you will also encounter beast masters when walking in the forest, right?"

"Since this is the case, why not choose a road that is easy to walk? At least it is convenient to run." Director Deng said with a smile, is there any safe road in Tianshuangyuan?Some are just relatively safe roads.

It doesn't mean that walking in the forest will not encounter imperial beasts.

"Yes, what Director Deng said is very correct." Xu Jian said with a smile after hearing this: "Little girl, don't doubt Director Deng's experience. The director often goes out for surveys, and he is much more experienced than us in this regard."

"Like this? That's because I have too many doubts." After listening, Xu Tingting said.

She stopped talking, because she was a little too vigilant. The other party has been in contact with mining work all year round, so she must have rich experience.

"Okay, let's go on, don't discuss this matter." Director Deng said with a smile, and the team set off again.

"rustle"

"rustle"

The mechanical trilobites moved on the pure white snow, leading them away in a short while.

After they left, there was movement in the silent forest, and a pack of white wolves ran out of the dense forest "suddenly".

"Boss just got prey and left our territory." A white wolf with a crooked mouth sniffed the ground and couldn't help but sneezed, then looked at the traces on the snow and said.

What kind of prey is this?The smell on his body was so irritating that he sneezed so much.

"I'm not blind, I can see it." The leading giant wolf nose sniffed in the gully on the snow and said, "Why do humans come to our territory if they have nothing to do? What do these guys want to do?"

"Boss, are the traces on the ground left by humans? It's not like, don't they have two feet? Why do they walk like this?" Hearing this, the crooked white wolf asked, human beings are not two-legged sheep, one step at a time ?
But the traces left on the ground are completely invisible.

It seems that some insect-like creature has passed through their territory.

"Crooked mouth, you idiot, can't you be smarter after following me for so long?" The giant wolf pointed to the ground with its paw and said, "Look at the traces on the ground and you should understand that these are not left by living things, but Mankind's steel creatures are left behind."

"And they're the only ones who leave behind this disgusting fluid."

As the giant wolf spoke, he lifted the black sticky oil on his paws.

"It turned out to be like this." Hearing the words, the crooked white wolf suddenly realized: "Then what should we do next, Boss? Do we want to chase after these guys?"

"Of course, if we don't chase them, what will we eat?" The giant wolf looked at the traces on the ground and said, "Humans are much easier to deal with than other animals, and as long as one person is frightened, the others will be scared." They will also be too scared to move."

"As long as we defeat them, why don't we eat as much as we want?"

"Boss, you are really smart." Hearing this, the crooked white wolf couldn't help saying in admiration.

"Okay, boys cheer me up a little bit." The giant wolf looked at the ground and said, "After catching the human beings, everyone won't have to suffer from hunger."

"Aw~ow"

Hearing this, the wolves roared excitedly.

Then he ran with the wolf, and chased in the direction where Xu Tingting and the others left.

"Wow ~ wow"

"Wow ~ wow"

In the snow-covered forest, night crows with scarlet eyes and white bodies came out one after another. They flapped their wings and flew in the forest, knocking down a lot of white snow.

Xu Tingting and others, who were riding the cold wind, were still advancing along the huge head path, and soon there were noisy voices on both sides of the beast path.

"Not good, a royal beast has found out, and we are following us now."

"Yes, it's up to Captain Xu to take action."

After the survey team member sitting on the mechanical trilobite found out, his face changed instantly and he shouted at Xu Jian.

"Don't panic, this is a small problem."

Xu Jian looked at the two sides and said, there was an extra big football-like ball in his hand and threw it towards the forest: "Everyone hold your breath, I will give these guys some gifts for fun."

"Zizi"

"Zizi"

Following his words, after the thrown ball bounced on the spot, black smoke was sprayed out from the connected gap.

After a while, a pungent and unpleasant smell spread around, and the black smoke blocked their sight even more.

"Aw~ow"

The imperial beasts who were chasing after them smelled the pungent smell, and couldn't help screaming and wailing in pain.

As beast masters, their noses are much sharper than humans, and they suddenly lost their fighting power when they encountered this kind of attack.

"Xiao Xu did a good job, they didn't catch up." Director Deng said with a smile when he heard the screams from behind. At present, although their team is relatively young, they are still very reliable in doing things.

"Well, but we can't be careless. This group of imperial beasts that appeared is just the first batch. There must be more guys who will catch up later." Xu Jian looked at the back and said, his face was not so relaxed.

He believed that these beast masters could find them, and it was only a matter of time before other beast masters found them.

And as time goes by, the dangers they encounter will only increase.

"Well, it is."

"Tianshuangyuan is at the time when food is most scarce, and once one of the imperial beasts wakes up, the other guys will follow closely." Director Deng's face immediately calmed down when he heard this.

It's nothing to be able to solve these imperial beasts, the most important thing is if they can solve the problem later.

"Aw~ow"

Just after their conversation, the roar of the imperial beast came from behind again.

"Not good! It's Tianshuangyuan's famous white wolf group. This group of guys are just like worms, and they will always follow their prey." After hearing this, Xu Jian said to Director Deng: "The trilobites are the fastest How fast can we run? We need to get past these guys quickly, they are a bunch of troublesome followers."

"The fastest speed of the mechanical trilobites is only [-] yards. They were originally designed to move on snow and water." Director Deng said. If they want to stay on water and snow without sinking, they must have a very large surface area. OK.

It is precisely because of this relationship that part of the speed must be sacrificed.

"Is the fastest speed only fifty yards? This is not good news." Hearing this, Xu Jian pulled out a round ball from the storage bracelet and threw it back.

"Dodge them all, be careful, don't fall for these human tricks."

The wolf who followed immediately shouted when he saw the thrown ball.

"Yes, boss."

The wry-mouthed white wolf who followed closely replied, and the wolves behind him also followed suit. They must watch.

"puff"

Just then, the small ball that fell on the ground bounced, and then released a pink gas, forming a foggy wall.

The wolves passing through smelled the scent, and their eyes suddenly became blurred, looking at each other, their eyes were full of twists and turns.

"Brother, what did you throw out just now?" Xu Tingting couldn't help but bewildered when she saw the stopped wolves, the color is not right, what did my brother throw out?
"It's nothing, it's just a gadget that will attract the attention of the beast masters." Xu Jian said indifferently, the owner of the equipment shop really didn't lie to him, this thing is really easy to use.

The imperial beast who was chasing very vigorously just now stopped chasing immediately.

"What are you bastards doing? Hurry up and move." Halfway through the chase, the wolf who found the empty space behind him cursed, what the hell are these bastards doing, they stopped after chasing and chasing?

And crooked mouth, you are a male, right?What are you looking at with the male wolf?
I'm afraid there's something wrong with it, right?
"hu~hu~"

The crooked mouth drooling breathed rapidly, looking at the opposite male wolf, his eyes were full of love.

And the male wolf on the opposite side also tightened its tail at this time, and it seemed that it was waiting for the love of the crooked mouth.

The atmosphere changed instantly, until a paw slapped on their heads.

"What are you two idiots doing? Are you crazy?" the wolf cursed angrily.

It's winter, it's winter.It's not spring yet?What are these two guys doing?
"what!!"

"Boss, what happened to me just now?" Asked the crooked mouth that flew out from a paw, like a gourd rolling in a circle.

"What do you think?" The wolf scolded angrily, ran to the middle of the wolf pack and roared, all the wolves raised their heads at the same time, and the red light in their eyes gradually disappeared.

"Is this group of guys so resistant to drugs?" Xu Jian, who had run away, heard the howling of wolves, and kept taking out small pieces of green ribs from the storage bracelet and throwing them back

go with.

"Brother, what are you doing here?" Xu Tingting asked weakly.

"It's nothing, give these wolves some extra food, if they are full? Maybe they won't continue chasing us." Xu Jian said looking at the small ribs scattered on the ground.

According to research, the royal beasts have a certain resistance to paralytic toxins and neurotoxins, but they are much less resistant to gastrointestinal toxins and hormonal catalysts.

He didn't believe that in this icy and snowy environment, a few wolves could bear the short ribs he had put on laxatives. As long as they dared to eat them, they would turn into spray fighters.

In this way, they will have enough time to leave.

"It smells so good, so good. Boss."

The pack of wolves rushing in with a white mist saw the small ribs on the ground, they couldn't help drooling immediately, opened their mouths and bit the ribs.

"You idiots really dare to eat it. This is a trap set up by humans. Spit it out." The wolf rushed forward, and when he found that the younger brothers were eating ribs, he immediately cursed.

Humans are the most cunning creatures, how could they kindly leave food for them, this is a trap.

"Impossible, Boss. Does this meat smell okay? It's almost the same as what we usually eat." The crooked white wolf continued to eat while licking his lips.

"Yes, boss, you can try it." The other white wolves heard the words and said, and the next second they clamped their tails together, and began to spray out a foul-smelling liquid.

"You idiots." The wolf's face turned dark when he saw it.

It was the presence of this group of idiots that caused their hunting operations to fail.

"Boss, there's something wrong with this meat." Whispering his mouth, he couldn't help but squirt.

Humans are just too bad to use such despicable means against them.

"Didn't you just say no?" The wolf ran up to the upper air outlet in disgust and waited, otherwise, if he left, his little brothers would probably be taken advantage of by the other beastmen because of the collapse. ate.
