Chapter 490 Set foot on 【Old World】
The second team of the Survey Corps conducted a three-day special training in Gubao.
The next "maze task" is very important.
There will be a total of twelve extraordinary people who will leave the fortress, cross the northern border, and arrive at the [Old World]... and this special training will also screen out suitable candidates for the final departure.
During these three days of training, Gu Shen participated in the whole process.
He is a "newcomer" in the true sense. Regarding the control skills of Yuanjia, the knowledge of survival outside the fortress, and the experience of exploring missions, these aspects are almost zero... It's just that Gu Shen's performance made the investigators of the Legion All members were amazed.
This young man is very powerful.
Even if the competition is fair, it can be squeezed into the final list of "12 people".
Three days are fleeting.
Today is departure day.
Gu Shen put on the silver-white "fourth-level source armor" under the command of the investigative legion. As Ajar said, when they really want to rush to the "battlefield", the soldiers will wear special source armor that is one level higher than their own strength.
Tier [-] source armor, able to carry the power of a transcendent person above the tenth floor in the deep water area.
Its source energy driving force is stronger, and its material is tougher.
The investigation team that went to explore the maze has two teams, the main team and the auxiliary team. In the lineup of 12 people, except for Li Chen, the spiritual assistant who awakened [The Eye of the Source], everyone else is a third-order transcendent .
The home team is led by Yuan Yuan and is responsible for opening the way ahead.
The deputy team captain is named Su He. This is a middle-aged man who hides his secrets. He looks plain but is very powerful. Gu Shen estimates that Su He's strength is at the peak of the ninth level of the deep sea, and he is only a short distance from breaking through the fourth level. The gap is one line.
Gu Shen was naturally assigned to the "deputy team".
Although he didn't fall behind in the special training these days and performed excellently, the survey corps still put him in the "protection position".
This is an important person who needs to be "protected".
Gu Shen didn't say anything, and silently accepted the arrangement.
For him... this is the first time to go to the [Old World], so there is no need to worry about it. If you follow this experienced team and return smoothly, the mission will be considered a success.
As for the "cane sawdust" clue, anything can happen in [Old World].
Hope to find it.
But if you go through the maze and find nothing, it can only be said to be an arrangement of fate.
On the giant wall.
There were twelve figures standing, and above their heads were giant boats suspended above the clouds.
Farther out on the gigantic ship.
There is a sky-shielding barrier, made up of tens of millions of transparent floating boards, which is the direct barrier between the huge wall of Gubao Fortress and the [Old World].
This is an epic-level magnificent and huge source energy defense shield.
Human beings have never given up exploring the world beyond the giant wall.
Moreover, with the development of technology, Beizhou is trying to push out of the fortress little by little. In a world where order has collapsed, it can extend outward... like a big tree, spreading its branches underground, extending The more land, the greater the hope of survival.
This huge protective cover is like a big umbrella, covering the zenith of the fortress.
Therefore, it is called "the line of defense of the umbrella".
The melting furnace under the central city continuously burns "energy" to support this huge line of defense.
Yuan Yuan narrowed his eyes.
He said softly: "The Second Battalion of the Investigation Corps, the Special Operations Team, all members are in place, please also open the 'origin energy shield'."
"receive."
Zou Hai's calm voice came from the channel of Gubao Fortress.
"Buzzing—"
Yuantian's floating source energy board began to roar, the flying snow flowed backwards, and a huge suction force was born from outside the huge wall, only opening an extremely narrow gap, and the tidal power of the black hole was enough to make people feel horrified.
Compared with it, human beings are really small creatures.
It is hard to imagine that the defenders of Gubao Fortress can stick to this position and have not retreated half a step for hundreds of years.
this moment.
There are tens of thousands of particles visible to the naked eye on the huge wall, which are reversing and surging in the boundary of the collapse of order.
Gu Shen took a deep breath and looked at the unknown world where the snow was rolling back. He knew that from the moment Gubao Fortress opened the "umbrella line of defense", Yuanjia entered the "consumption state", and the mask cut off the The dirty breath of the old world] and purified into a breathable clean gas. In addition, this pair of external armor can automatically reduce and increase gravity as the environment changes, but all effects require "combustion of source energy". Due to technical Due to limited conditions, the complete burning time of an energy core is about 30 days.
There is plenty of energy for this operation.
Enough to support the team back and forth.
Every transcendent of the investigation legion standing on the huge wall has a very dignified expression. Even though they have participated in dozens of exploration missions, every time they leave the human stronghold, it may mean goodbye forever.
Yuan Yuan's voice slowly sounded on the central channel.
"Maze 38... No. 20 exploration missions, officially started!"
Twelve pieces of source armor sprayed out a snow-white airflow.
For an instant.
Swept out from the huge wall.
In just a few seconds, twelve figures rushed out of the "umbrella line of defense", and the floating boards of Gubao Fortress began to close quickly, blocking the broken order of the [Old World] out again.
[Deep Sea] cannot be linked in [Old World].
The communication between the two parties was interrupted at this moment.
The command room of Gubao Fortress was instantly quiet.
The command of this operation was carried out by Zou Hai, but all the commanders subconsciously looked at the person next to Adjutant Zou.
Lin Lin remained silent the whole time, watching the team leave the fortress.
Because of the "Hong Zhong" incident, there was friction between the second team of the investigative legion and Gubao. Because of the support of the legion chief, Lin Lin got all the right to deal with the incident.
He once again rejected the request of the Second Survey Corps to retrieve the corpse of the "hero".
And this decision made both parties very unhappy.
Before the start of the labyrinth mission, Yuan Yuan did not have any communication with Gubao.
At this moment, the communication was disconnected.
Lin Lin looked at the gradually blurred figures on the screen, and said softly in a very low voice, "I wish you triumph."
The "Umbrella Line" is closed again.
The shattered snow in Gubao regained its stability, and the world became peaceful and peaceful again.
Zou Hai rubbed his head.
Do not know what is the reasons of that……
Perhaps it was the reason for sending Gu Shen away... He always felt that the uneasy premonition in his heart had returned.
……
……
"Boom"!
It seemed to be the sound of broken stone chips hitting the breathing mask.
It was probably just a stone chip the size of a fingernail.
A slight impact, but a violent roar.
And when Gu Shen pressed the button on the side of the mask.
All the noisy sounds from the outside world were blocked, and the sound of stone chips hitting the mask was no longer harsh, but became very ethereal, like a dream.
Even though he was in turbulent flow, his surroundings... suddenly became quiet.
Fortunately, in the central control channel, the voice of the companion can still be heard.
"All members, report the situation."
"The home team, Li Chen, everything is normal."
"Home team, Mo Hongyi, everything is normal."
"..."
"Vice team, Jiang Yu, everything is normal."
"Deputy team, Gu Shen, everything is normal."
Gu Shen was the last to complete the report.
Yuan Yuan's commanding voice sounded in the central control channel: "Very good... All members, prepare to land."
Gu Shen looked back, and saw pieces of floating boards like honeycomb fragments gradually became transparent under the blowing of the majestic snow, and finally only a vague outline remained.
No wonder it is called "The Line of Defense of the Umbrella".
Looking back in the [Old World], it really looks like an umbrella.
A giant umbrella covering the human world.
At this moment, Gu Shen felt a powerful force around him that was squeezing the "Genuine Armor"... According to the Survival Manual of the Investigation Corps, it was the tidal force from the [Old World].
This kind of power will have a terrible corrosion effect on the skin and body of organic organisms.
And the source armor can block to a great extent.
In fact, even without source armor, you can leave the fortress, as long as your own strength is strong enough... A transcendent of the fourth stage can resist the "power of tides" if he can release the field.
But the tidal power of the [Old World] is constantly running and will never stop.
The transcendent needs to consume power to release the domain.
If it's really a long journey, keeping the domain open all the time will consume a lot of energy.
Except for the seat of God and their apostles, few people can do this kind of thing... So some special fortress tasks must be completed by special beings who master the "power of fire".
"Countdown... three, two, one, the coordinates have been sent, and everyone is starting to land!"
Twelve figures, in the sky where the crushed snow and stone chips were flying, drew a falcon-like arc.
【Old World】There are dangers everywhere.
After humans arrived in Wuzhou, they have explored for 600 years, but they have only explored a very small part of the map. People believe that there is a "land of hope" in that dark map, so the exploration will never stop... ...But every step forward of the human race means that there are individuals sacrificed for it.
Gu Shen landed on a piece of "ruins".
Because the years are too long.
He couldn't tell what kind of material the "rock" he was stepping on was, but when he lowered his head, he saw worn and weathered bones vaguely in the gaps between the ruins... In order to find this safe "landing point", I do not know how many people gave their lives.
And the next line.
Every step is to walk on the dead bones of the predecessors.
Gu Shen's expression was a little complicated.
A palm rested lightly on his shoulder.
Looking up, it was Su He, the deputy captain.
This taciturn middle-aged man exudes a trustworthy and reliable atmosphere.
"I know what you're thinking...everyone who set foot on the soil of the [Old World] probably thinks the same way."
Su He glanced at the skeleton in the gap, and said softly: "Remember, for the latecomers, we at this moment are also the predecessors who sacrificed blood. This is the first time I set foot on the [Old World], What a senior said to me."
Gu Shen silently memorized this sentence.
"Leaving the fortress for the first time... don't worry, just go forward with peace of mind."
Su He smiled and said, "There is my queen."
……

(I have something to do tonight, so the update is a little late, sorry.)
