Chapter 17 - Chapter 17: Collapse

Just as Soshyang straightened up and was facing the next crypt spider, an unprecedented tremor penetrated the soles of his boots and knocked him over to the ground.

When he got up, he noticed changes in all directions. It seemed that the engine of the whole world had begun to disintegrate.

On the ground, on the walls, and even on the pillars and statues, millions of alien characters flickered, emitting a disgusting green light.

To make matters worse, a large number of necromantic warriors appeared from both sides of the gate, and they continued to approach this side with the hissing noise when the green energy was activated, while the team led by Fallow was still fighting hard with the crypt spiders.

The only good news is that the closed door was cracked by a strong tremor, which was large enough to accommodate the interstellar warrior.

Fallo, who overturned the crypt spider on his body and stood up again, immediately issued a new order.

"Alexey, take your people to support the captain, we will be your queen!"

"Follow...what?"

"Excuting an order!"

Without waiting for Soshyang to continue to ask questions, Fallo yelled:

"Concentrate the firepower! Clear the way!"

Suddenly, the roar of explosive bullets reverberated in the corridor, and the intensive firepower immediately shredded the undead in the space between the battlefield and the gate, and more convulsed sparks, and then collapsed to the ground, leaving the saints alone. The beetles climbed up on their bodies to repair.

"Quick!"

At the urging of Fallo, Soshyan dropped all thoughts, started to run faster, and continued to shoot forward.

Nad and Aksai were around him, forming an assault arrow, deep into the infantry formation of the space dead.

, the limp Occam voluntarily assumed the position behind the palace, while moving hard, occasionally stopping and firing a series of explosive bombs on the way they came from behind.

"Hot-melt bomb!! Thirty-second fuze!"

Fallo's roar echoed in the communication channel, and Soshyang could only rush towards the crack in the door.

But when they approached, they realized that the place was not unobstructed.

The fifth tomb spider entrenched itself on the gate, but it was motionless before, making people mistakenly thought it was a statue.

When Soshyang's group approached, it recovered.

The huge metal structure twists and trembles on the black base. The green crystal cluster connected to the head flashes and dims, and the energy pulsates in the circuit connected to the base.

"Go ahead! I will cover!"

Occam, who arrived last, removed the last grenade from his waist and threw it at the awakened crypt spider.

With a loud bang, the three of Soshyan and others scattered through the gap of the gate under the cover of the grenade, and just as Occam was moving forward, a metal appendage protruded from the destructive cloud formed by the explosion. , Drew towards this veteran.

The blow slashed into Occam's shoulder deeply, causing him to stagger back.

Although there was no bleeding, it also made Occam lose the opportunity to enter the rift.

"Soshyan, don't look back, keep walking."

After pressing these words, Occam turned off his communicator, raised his gun and fired at the target.

Amid the roar, one projectile destroyed one of the appendages of that structure in the burst of blue flame, but that was all, because the undead warriors behind had already caught up.

boom——

A flash of light and a huge explosion made Soshyang finally realize that he had entered the central temple.

"This place looks to be broken."

Aksai maintains a minimum of humor even on this occasion.

But he is right, because at the entrance of this huge temple, the partial dome has collapsed and the ground has begun to collapse. If they stay here more, they may be crushed or trapped.

"keep going."

Soshyang's voice was accompanied by a thunderous explosive roar, and he turned his head and crossed the backpack to take a look at the way he had come.

Through the crack in the door, Soshyang could clearly see that the dazzling green light disappeared, replaced by the crackling of the skinner's claws and the emerald-colored eyes burning in the dark with hatred.

It is no longer possible to look back, and the roar of the explosive gun gradually fades away...

Soshyan briefly mourned for his fighting brother for a few seconds, then took Nader and Aksai to go deeper. They passed through the magnificent promenade and entered the hall full of statues and ordnance, where everything was broken. The metal wreckage, and occasionally a glimpse of blood-stained silver.

It is obvious that fierce fighting has erupted here.

But it is worth the strange thing. There are still a few complete aliens on the ground. Their bald heads only have a huge eye, and some exaggerated long-range weapons are scattered around them.

These strange undead spirits can't see the scars on the outside, they just lie motionless on the ground.

The three of them were very careful when they passed them. Soshyang even shot one of the heads, but there was still no reaction.

"There are no people and no aliens."

Nade's muzzle kept moving on the right side of the three-person team, but there was only a dead silence in the hall, as well as darkness that could not even be penetrated by night vision.

"It's weird."

Aksai spoke suddenly, and he was on the left side of the guard.

"what?"

Soshyang paused.

"Don't you think it's weird?"

Aksai turned his head to him, and Soshyan could know the expression on the other side even through the helmet.

"Master Fallo seems to be here specifically to you in. The company commander also had this attitude before. It's almost...it's almost like they are fighting for you."

"What are you talking about?"

"I always think so."

Nade's voice was added to the channel.

"Soshyan, there is one thing I didn't tell you, that is, when we entered the landing module, I found that the battle commander seemed to be watching us all the time."

"Team leader?"

Soshyan recalled for a moment, but did not notice whether Amurad appeared.

"Yes, I can see very clearly, he is standing with the master casting master Salax, just about two hundred meters away from us, behind a shelf--"

The words did not fall, and a lightning bolt came from the air like a whip and struck Nade directly.

With a low growl, Nade staggered back. He looked down and found that his left arm had become a severed limb.

"Enemy attack!"

Aksai's roar immediately remembered, and Soshyang quickly raised his gun and looked around.

I saw countless figures moving in the deep darkness, and they were gathering, green-lighted weapons crackling with the terrible energy operation, and further away, the outline of a pyramid was gradually appearing.

Boom——————————!

Just when Soshyang and his party were almost surrounded, the roar and shock like a volcanic eruption transmitted through the ground to the bottom of their boots. The three star warriors hurriedly activated the magnetic lock to fix themselves in place, and the necrotic machinery seemed The toppled puppet fell one after another like a puppet.

Then, the hall had a terrible collapse, and millions of tons of boulders fell down, and Soshyan hurriedly avoided with two comrades in arms.

In the process, Soshyang saw through the gap exposed in the dome, and saw a huge structure rising into the void, its shape was like a huge and sharp sickle.

After hanging in mid-air for a short time, it flew away at an incredible speed, followed by two smaller models.

Soshyang knew that these were the spacecraft of the dead souls, but their attitude at this time reminded him of the escape capsule on the Storm.

It seems that they are running away...

However, considering the characteristics of these soulless machines, it is unthinkable that they will abandon the battle and flee. Isn't these dead spirits still of one mind?

Just when Soshyang focused on the strange shape of the sky, the crumbling dome completely collapsed, and a hand slammed him from behind before a pile of boulders enveloped him.
