Traveler and Gesakuma

Because there is no sage, Mr. Benson, who can only rely on the leader, has limited energy and must return to Alves City within time.

With Miss Mary alone, she can provide Mr. Benson with nearly thirty hours of energy for daily activities in non-combat situations.

And if it was in a battle situation, Miss Mary could only provide him with energy for two to three hours.

For this, Ms. Mary often ridicules that she is one day in normal times and one meal in wartime, but her situation can be regarded as average among the pilots. Louis, who is also the pilot of Mr. Energy supplies are not guaranteed.

In order to ensure safety, leaders like Mr. Lewis who cannot guarantee continuous energy supply for an hour during wartime cannot be sent out to perform long-distance combat missions.

In order to ensure sufficient energy when going back, after receiving the scientific expedition team, Miss Mary said goodbye to Qianqian reluctantly, boarded Mr. Benson's abdomen, and escorted the aircraft towards the direction of Alves.

Those off-road vehicles used as light sources had already been taken away by the aircraft, so when Mr. Benson and the aircraft drove away, the forest was plunged into darkness again.

Because of the special structure of the eyes, night and day have no special influence on Gesakuma.

But knowing that the human race is different from them, Mr. Solan, who can hardly see anything without light in the dark, still converted the energy into the little sage to light up a row of light sources in the dark forest.

As the only light source in the dark night, it immediately attracted a large number of phototaxis insects flying towards it.

Looking at those jungle insects, big or small, colorful or hideous in appearance, they immediately turned back into the body of the metal giant without wanting to experience their powerful actions.

Now that everyone in the scientific expedition team has been sent away, Qian Qian and Mr. Suo Lang don't need to estimate anything this time.

Sitting on the sofa eating yogurt, Qian Qian silently calculated in his heart that when he returned to the Zhanlan camp, he must turn it upside down.

Don't worry about human beings, the return journey of the metal giant is very fast. It took nearly two hours to come, but it took less than 10 minutes to return.

If it were not for the consideration of the endurance of the little sage in the body, Gesakuma said that he could shorten the time by three to five minutes.

Just as they were getting closer and closer to the Zhanlan camp and were about to reach their destination, there was a sudden loud noise, and the entire round corner forest trembled with the loud noise.

Mr. Suo Lang, who was about to land, was immediately lifted into the air by the dustpan. The center of the money in his body was unstable, and he almost rolled off the sofa.

Fortunately, he supported the backrest beside him with quick eyesight and quick hands, and lay on the sofa for several seconds before the loud noise and the vibration wave it produced completely disappeared.

After waiting for a while on the errand, Qian Qian felt that it was probably safe, so he jumped off barefoot and ran to the window to check the situation outside.

At this time, Gesakuma, who had risen into the air, had turned on the light source again, and the searchlight-like light source shone on the position where the loud noise had just been made, and that was their previous campsite.

At this moment, the Zhanlankui grassland that led them to look for it has disappeared, and a circular deep pit appeared in the entire Zhanlankui grassland as if hit by a meteorite. Shrouded in it, even strong sunlight cannot penetrate the thick layer of ash.

Shocked by what he saw in front of the money on the window, he opened his mouth and stared, pointing at the deep hole, not knowing what to say.

As the rising dust slowly fell, the deep pit was finally visible to people. The tiankeng is generally bottomless, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom like a gourd, and the effective distance is only a dozen meters when the strong light passes by. After that, it was still a dark world.

The tiankeng that suddenly appeared in the dark night is like a giant beast with its mouth wide open, quietly lying there waiting for its prey.

"Is this a ground subsidence? But it doesn't look like it. The pits are surrounded by solid rock walls, without any internal hollowing out. Under such circumstances, ground subsidence should not occur. "

Qian Qian, who is not bad at geography knowledge, was muttering to himself while observing carefully in the limited range of light.

Gesakuma, who was in mid-air, heard the words and circled around the suddenly appeared tiankeng a few times, during which time he also increased the intensity of the light source.

But even so, those enhanced light sources can still only illuminate a dozen meters, and then scattered in the darkness.

Inside the chest of the other party, Qian Qian, who had witnessed everything the whole time, was even a little suspicious now, whether this tiankeng could not even penetrate the sun's rays.

After confirming that the idea of ​​directly shining into the bottom of the pit with light is definitely impossible to see, the metal giant that was originally floating in midair began to fold its wings and slowly descend.

And the target of his descent was the seemingly narrow entrance of the tiankeng. Of course, this narrowness is an adjective compared to the wide area inside the tiankeng.

After discovering this, Qianqian nervously grabbed the spirit link elements beside him, and asked them in a low voice: "Mr. Suolan, are we going to enter this big pit to find out?" ?”

The giant metal giant that was descending replied: "Yes, the total time from the disappearance of the guide and team leader to our return is no more than three hours. In such a short period of time, it is impossible for human beings to go far in the jungle in the middle of the night. .I have just explored the vicinity, and there is no sign of the leader or Mr. Guide. The only thing that has not been searched is the inside of this deep pit."

"If they are really in such a deep pit, it will be very dangerous. The collapse just happened almost instantly. In this case, what state should the person be in if he fell into the pit?"

It's no wonder that Qianqian thinks too much, if people really fall into the pit under such circumstances, it must be very bad luck.

The metal giant didn't reply after hearing the words. Although rescuing human beings was only a task for him, since it was something he had promised to the other party, he should try his best to complete it.

As the metal giant slowly descended, the world in Qian Qian's vision gradually changed from a dense forest to a dark stone wall.

The inside of the tiankeng seems to be naturally insensitive to the element of light. The bright light sources on Gesakuma's body are much dimmer in the tiankeng.

Gradually, only a few meters around them can see things clearly, no matter how far away they are, they will start to blur, and when they are more than ten meters away, it will be completely dark.

This feeling is even more lonely than when they went to the deep sea last time. After all, even in the deep sea at that time, they could see many deep-sea creatures living in the deep sea, but now there is no one around except them. Create something that is alive again.

Qianqian, who was a little nervous, couldn't help breathing quickly, and his heartbeat began to speed up.

Sensing his abnormality, the metal giant moved its fingers to the bedside, tapped it a few times, and after attracting the attention of the little sage, said: "Don't worry, the deep pit and the deep sea are important to us. There is no difference. Even to a certain extent, we Gesakuma are actually more familiar with the underground. After all, our race has slept in the depths of the earth for tens of thousands of years. So no matter how deep the pit is, it will eventually No matter where you go, you don’t have to be too nervous. It would be great if you could reach directly to the center of the earth, and it would also allow you to take a look at the ‘boudoir’ where I have slept for tens of thousands of years.”

Hearing what Mr. Suo Lang said, Qian Qian burst out laughing immediately, and the nervousness that was originally caused by the environment in the pit immediately eased.

After the metal giant sank down slowly for nearly half an hour, Qian Qian finally saw the ground through the light source on the opponent.
