Chapter 304 The Center of the Labyrinth (13)

The ruins began to function normally.

Ian could sense through the silver chip that the main control AI of Sequoia Base, which had been stuck for a long time, was operating smoothly.

The immeasurable amount of seawater that was swallowed before was purified and adjusted into cooling liquid, and then sent to the periphery of the furnace core that was on the verge of melting for rapid cooling.

In my mind, the blood-red flashing warning light finally gradually turned bright yellow. Although it was still at the threshold of danger, the temperature data visible to the naked eye was declining, and it was expected to gradually return to normal within ten days.

Big storms are history.

Hearth will no longer go out of control as long as there is no second Grand Elder or Swarm.

"I don't know what will happen to those primitive goblins... At that time, I didn't see many dangerous auras. Thinking about it carefully, goblins also have subspecies such as volcano goblins, lava goblins, furnace goblins, so I don't need to worry too much."

Ian looked in the direction of the cooling warehouse, and he could even imagine that as the endless heat poured into the formerly cold ice abyss, it would soon become a huge reservoir filled with scalding hot water.

The Frost Goblin would definitely not be able to adapt to that environment.

But hot spring goblins, steam goblins sure can.

There is no need to worry about the survival of the goblins. They may not die even if the world is destroyed. You must know why the goblin exploration team discovered the Obra Spark spacecraft on the moon?Isn't that because those goblins don't need the living conditions required by almost all living things, and can use their bodies to explore freely in the universe?
After that, Goblin even established a huge base on the surface of the moon, serving as the main hub for researching alien ships.

"Wait a minute, so the looking moon collapsed and turned into a new moon..."

Thinking of this, Ian couldn't help being slightly taken aback. He couldn't help but recall the situation in the previous mural, where the moon collapsed and the fragments fell into the realms of Terra.

The largest gathering place of goblins is a city-state located around the Sea of ​​Wrath... and the name of that city-state...

It is Falling Star City!
"Could it be... Forget it, for the sake of the fairy material in the future, I will definitely go to Falling Star City once."

Shaking his head and withdrawing his thoughts, Ian turned his head and looked forward.

The Ether Crystal Dragon and the Bishop of White Mist were heading towards the end along the river.

This is where the branch of the cooling pipeline was located. To be precise, it is the normal interactive pipeline when there is no need for 'emergency cooling'.

Generally speaking, the cooling circuit of the power unit has its own circulation, and it does not need to replace the internal coolant frequently. However, due to the complicated underground conditions, the overall system will still be replaced slowly to ensure that the coolant inside the power unit is always kept clean. Can keep effect.

Only in times of extreme crisis, like just now, the entire area will become a huge interactive channel, pouring the surging waves from the sea into the interior.

The end of the cooling channel is naturally located in the original ice abyss, the current cooling warehouse.

To be precise, it is located directly above the cooling reservoir - a huge reserve reservoir.

"This... is more like the center of the maze?"

When everyone arrived here with the Ether Crystal Dragon, Master Gesai couldn't help being a little surprised. He looked around at the bright and bright environment: "In other words, only a part of the South China Sea Great Relics group is labyrinthized, and the core of the labyrinth is in the Here—the lair of this crystalline dragon!"

"And this crystalline dragon is the so-called 'Maze Guardian'... yes, of course, this is much more reasonable."

"Damn it." Andor said with emotion: "It's so bright!"

Not only them, even Ian was stunned for a moment.

What appeared in front of his eyes was an unusually wonderful underground cavity area.

This huge underground cavity can't be seen at a glance, but it can generally be seen that it is an underground lake. The lake water is very clear, and the sharp-edged rocks at the bottom of the water can be clearly seen.

These rocks are in the shape of hexagonal columns, stacked on top of each other, some are flat, some are uneven, and the most towering ones form a small island in the center of the lake, which is the lair of the ether crystal dragon. Web coral, but with a crystalline texture.

The crystal coral island emits strong fluorescence visible to the naked eye. This fluorescence is also a kind of radiation, but it is not the high-heat radiation of a nuclear furnace, but the spiritual energy radiation similar to the formation of a natural spiritual energy field...

Facts have proved that this is indeed the case. In the silver chip, Ian determined that the small crystalline island that illuminates the entire amber is the crystalline vein of natural elements formed by the condensation of ultra-high-concentration psionic energy fields.

"The underground cavity where the entire Sequoia base is located should be the site of a prehistoric volcano, a huge underground wonder left after the lava in the lava pool retreats back to the mantle - and this underground lake is one of them, these hexagonal The pillars should all be coral rocks formed after the cooling of volcanic lava."

Determined in his heart, Ian noticed that there were many huge bones of monsters on the basalt stone shore at the edge of the underground lake, which should be the remains of the ether crystal dragon's collection and food.

And right there, there was actually a gigantic crocodile corpse... It was the corpses of Sequoia Great Shaman and Swamp Crocodile!

It seems that the sharks and giant eels also came to this lake along the river, and then followed the water to the river of parasites... No wonder they were parasitized.

Giant eels and sharks were probably attacked by parasitic beasts who came here to steal eggs, so they were parasitized with brain-eating worms!

And this lake extends in all directions, and there must be one that leads to the ice abyss of the ruins.

No wonder it is the center of the maze.

Thinking of this, Ian turned his head and looked in the direction of the ether crystal dragon.

This giant beast, which had been shining brightly before, is now completely dim, leaving only a little core in the center of its heart still emitting pale light, and most of the densely packed crystal pupils on its head are closed.

It looked at Ian.

"It's dying."

A white figure landed next to the shark, Bishop Baiwu looked at the crystal coral rock island in the center of the lake, and said calmly: "Because it helped me when I was fighting the mother worm, so before it attacks me, , I will not take action to fight it."

"Remember to respect life, Mr. Guide." He reminded Ian.

"Yes, Bishop Baiwu."

Ian nodded slightly. He signaled to Isengard and Master Gosser that there was no need to worry, then he patted the head of Shasha under him, took the dragon egg, and flew towards the ether crystal dragon.

The ether crystal dragon, exhausted and dying, watched as Ian gently landed in front of it, and then sent back three dragon eggs about the size of watermelon wrapped in the flesh and blood of the insect nest. Like some kind of crystal iron tremor.

The huge monster stood up, stuck out its tongue, and put these small eggs into its mouth, then nodded slightly to Ian, and groaned softly.

Ian also nodded, then turned around, motioning for them to go ashore.

"The dragon egg is polluted by the source quality of the worm nest, and it will be difficult to hatch if it encounters subsequent battles. The Crystal Dragon wants to use its last strength to warm it up."

On the way to the shore, Ian sighed with emotion: "I hope it will succeed. After all, as a labyrinth alien, its descendants will definitely inherit some of its evolutionary signs."

"However, if it turns into a swarm crystal dragon in the end, it would be quite interesting."

Of course, there can be no such thing as a swarm crystal dragon... No, if the hive will really raise dragon eggs by hand, maybe it can really raise a swarm crystal dragon?

And Isengarde stared at Ian who was in deep thought with blank eyes, and he whispered: "Sharks are nothing more than that, why can even dragons understand?"

"Is psionic energy so powerful?"

Ian also heard the whisper, but he didn't take it seriously—of course he didn't understand, but he wasn't stupid, he just guessed if he didn't understand.

He can clearly see the other party's mood swings through the precognitive horizon and the silver chip. In this way, with the other party's actions and the tone of some voices, he can probably know what the other party means.

Up to now, all the dangerous monsters and enemies in the South China Sea ruins group have been eliminated, and even the soldiers of the Flameland are almost completely wiped out in the previous cooling pipeline restart—maybe there will be some survivors, but after that Well, there is plenty of time to exterminate.

If it can capture the "living mouth" of the Spiritual Tool Church, then the value will be doubled.

Thinking of this, Ian turned his head and looked at another Orthodox member in his team.

He looked at Bishop Baiwu.

He looked at this old man with a peaceful and serene expression. Even though his target, the brain-eating worm mother and the will of the swarm had been destroyed, he didn't feel "happy", "excited" or "comfortable" in the slightest.
