In the Grand Canyon on the other side of the planet, the eighteen Marines members still turned on the searchlights on their chests, one followed by the other, and the eighteen double metal armored boots stepped on the gravel, making rustling sounds, and were moving towards the ground in a crack that seemed to never end.

No one knows how deep they entered, because except for the energy and transmission machinery of their armored combat suits that can work normally, other equipment has long been unable to operate.

While taking the lead in walking in the front, Captain 031 looked at a non-metal mechanical watch specially sent out for this mission in the mask.

From the time above, he could know that they had been walking in this narrow and winding downward passage for about two hours. Although it was a bit beyond the scheduled time, he still took the lead in the march.

In the opinion of 031, it should be nowhere near their final destination?

Due to the deeper crust, the temperature here is much hotter than the maximum of more than 40 degrees Celsius on the surface of the planet!

Captain 031, who was leading the team, just looked at the thermometer embedded outside the armor. Here, it had reached a high temperature of about 70 degrees Celsius?

He was simply unimaginable: If there were really bugs below, would they not be afraid of being roasted in such high temperature environment for a long time?

This universe is really amazing...

It can actually evolve the terrible insects that are not afraid of strong acids, but can survive in such high temperature environments? It is possible that those insects may not be cooked if they are thrown into boiling water of 100 degrees Celsius?

Anyway, Captain 031 thought while walking, and if it were humans, there would definitely be no way to survive in such a harsh high temperature environment without protection!

"Everyone pays attention! When you find the situation before, just lighten your movements!"

Suddenly, Captain 031, who was walking in the front, suddenly stopped moving.

He suddenly raised a fist and whispered to the Marines behind him, asking them to convey it to everyone behind him one by one, then he grabbed the electromagnetic rifle in his hand a little nervously, gently turned on the safety and loaded the bullet, turned off the searchlight in front of his chest, slowly walked forward, and walked over carefully step by step.

In fact, there is no need for the captain to remind him, all of them have seen it.

Not far below this rift path, about fifty meters away, there was a large gap in this narrow passage that could accommodate several Marines standing side by side. Outside, there seemed to be a faint red light coming from there. It seemed, like the red light naturally emitted by the planet's magma?

"Hurry! Be gentle, pay attention to your feet!"

031 Continue to lead the way, while carefully reminding you.

Finally, even if they moved carefully and slowly, they had reached this gap in less than a minute.

“…”

"God..."

"Damn UPL..."

This is a huge underground cave...

The Marines who were the first to come out of the gap, including the leader Captain 031, had just taken two steps from the gap when they were immediately frightened by the scene in front of them.

They can never imagine that there would be such a huge internal cave in the crust of this planet, and there would be such a huge nest of insects in the cave?

The leading captain 031 looked around and saw only a dark nest at the end of his sight, and even in the darkness that the sight could not reach, there were more?

“…”

He felt that this huge underground cave was at least several times the size of the island on their ground base?

Under the red light of a river of dark red magma flowing from somewhere next to it, he could clearly see that on the ground of the huge cave below, even at the cliff gap where they were standing, there was a thick layer of strange red and purple substance growing.

They seem to be special substances condensed by certain fungi? Or are they active substances condensed by flesh and blood?

Then on top of these strange, just a few active bacterial blankets, there are countless flesh-and-blood buildings, both green and red, both big and small, and different heights.

Their size is as big as their human command center or barracks, and they all seem to have life, constantly moving. On top of their huge bodies, there are many huge arthropods with ferocious fangs? Or tentacles?

Then, in the gap between these bacterial blankets and huge flesh-and-blood buildings or flesh-and-blood creatures, countless insects of all sizes are busy back and forth.

Among them are four-legged puppy bugs that they had attacked the base before, and also the snakeworms that could fire bone spurs. Of course, those huge mammoth-shaped monsters are indispensable!

Looking down from the edge of this gap cliff in the crack, in addition to the insects they had seen, countless insect eggs were piled up next to the mushroom blankets or meat mountain-shaped buildings.

From time to time, one or two four-legged puppy insects broke out from the eggs, and then quickly gained strong ability to move...

Even, 031 They saw countless flying dragon insects, or alternative insects that were lying on their tumbling, unable to name, and never seen before. The other party seemed not easy to bully just from the hideous outside?

Moreover, the most terrifying thing is: the approximate number of those bugs in their sight seems to be tens of thousands of? And what about those that were not seen in the distance due to the dim light?

031 I feel that he doesn’t dare to think about it anymore. This place must be the insects’ nest, right?

Or is this just one of their nests?

It is very likely that these bugs, like ants on the earth, have one ethnic group after another?

Anyway, Captain 031 would not believe that there is only one nest on this planet?

"Keep quiet! Everyone, slowly retreat into the gap!"

After taking a deep breath, 031 quickly said softly.

Then, he waved his hand back and led the team members back into the gap.

"Captain, what should we do?"

It was so dangerous that they retreated in time, as if they did not alarm the insect swarms?

After everyone retreated to the gap and confirmed that the swarm outside had no abnormal movements, the Marines looked at each other with lingering fear, and then they all looked at their captain No. 031.

"032, take off what you are carrying, be careful and lighter."

After nodding to the team members, 031 breathed a sigh of relief and said to him, a team member No. 032 who had been carrying a huge square backpack from beginning to end and was silent.

Then, 032 glanced at the captain, said nothing, and just walked over without saying a word.

When he turned around and squatted down gently, allowing the captain to help him untie the heavy thing on his back, which looked like a big cabinet, from the snap on the back of his armored combat uniform, the two of them worked together and gently lifted it to the side of the gap.

"What's this……"

Seeing the strange behavior of the captain and 032, everyone else was a little confused.

032 They had already seen this thing on their backs since the base started.

However, when they were transporting the spacecraft, no matter how they asked, the 032 was like wood and said nothing.

When they asked the captain, the captain shook his head and said nothing. To be honest, the rest of them had long been very curious about this thing!

Before this, when they were bragging and fucking on an armored transport spacecraft, they had speculated and bet many times that the thing they carried on 032 was either some important combat supplies, such as ammunition or food; or is it some of the latest expensive detection instruments that are anti-interference?

And now, it's finally time to uncover the puzzle.

When they came up curiously and watched Captain 031 and 032 lose a lot of effort, they gently opened the block-shaped mechanical password lid. When they clearly saw the things and signs inside the lid, everyone took a breath and took several steps back...

"ah……"

A Marine screamed in disbelief, but fortunately, he suppressed his voice in time.

———

"Hey! I said Garen, is it necessary for us to continue fighting?"

On the Hope game platform, two elite Marines of Garen and Dryus, a total of twenty Marines, were once again resurrected by the stone bridge outside Stantolme.

So far, in just one hour, they have made this special map of the little Annie to train their cold weapons combat skills: the Stantham dungeon has been destroyed by the dead team for thirty-two times!

From the beginning, they only knew how to chop randomly, and now they have learned to divide the responsibilities, respond to each other, and form a formation to fight against the enemy!

So, after they had a difficult 10th time to destroy the speed elite monster outside the Stansom gate, the elite ghoul who had eaten them eleven times!

Of course, this is still the easiest mode...

Then, after they destroyed the elite ghoul at the gate of the city, they began to advance steadily. With the ability to reset the map with infinite resurrection, they have successfully encountered the first real boss in the city of Stansomri!

Then, without surprise, twenty of them were blocked by the other party and could no longer explore the city in depth...

It would be fine if I just couldn't make it, but that boss, the monster called Timi, who was also a huge ghoul and was slaughtered by the wizards of the Curse Sect, ate these two Marines as many as twenty-two times!

This made many of them feel that in addition to practicing melee skills, they came to this map, but in fact, they were just to deliver food to the undead in the city, right?

Twenty fresh, sweet and warm human sets?

Although so far, they have learned a lot of opportunistic things and have studied many ways to target the undead or use strange energy on weapons.

For example: use the flames in the city to burn the undead, and use the strange water bottles around the stone or wooden houses to smash the undead? Or, use the supernatural spells released by those strange monsters to counteract the damage with the energy of your big sword or axe, and then cut the opponent to death?

"Then let's fight again? But this time, after entering the city, we won't go to the right, and try to go to the left?"

After thinking about it, Garen thought they should try again, anyway, there is still a little time before the meal is over.

If you walk to the right, they have tried it many times before!

At the corner of the street more than 100 meters to the right, there was that terrifying ghoul called Timi blocking the way. Garen was a little afraid of it!

As of now, these people cannot beat each other for the time being, so don’t send food again, right?

And if they don't want to refresh this copy and reset the little area at the city gate that they finally opened, they can only walk to the street on the left side of the city gate and try it.

"Left? Left is on the left! Everyone scouts the guys and get up!"

After he seemed to think Garen had a good idea, Dryus waved his hand and asked the Dawn of Intelligence to equip everyone with armored power combat uniforms. He took the lead in carrying his battle axe and walked into the city gate first.

"Brothers, we have all followed. We will go to the left after entering the city this time and fight the last time! Just knock out a boss and we will quit for dinner!"

In fact, Drayus has noticed it just now.

Not far from the left side of the city gate, he had seen it from afar: In a dead end, except for a few skeletons and ghouls and a small number of apprentices of the Curse Sect, there seemed to be only a small boss who was not big and the size of an ordinary human?

Then, if they cleared out the zombie skeletons and ordinary ghouls on the road first, it would not be too difficult to deal with the single boss on the opposite side, right?
To be continued...
