Biquge www.xbiquge.cc, the fastest update of the latest chapters on Edge of Doom!The attack came suddenly and went suddenly.

The hustle and bustle hadn't dissipated, and the giant beast embedded in the ground broke free and crawled.The four golden eyes looked at Keller angrily through the dust, but turned and left.When it left, naturally it stepped on a road to the sky in the forest.Keller did not order the chase, but the general frowned and looked worried.

With this sudden attack, the front line of the battlefield almost dashed across the monster.Had it not been for General Keller, the consequences would be disastrous.After the war, there were more than 30 dead, with more than 100 minor and serious injuries.The most tragic among them were the soldiers who were sprayed by the poison of the giant beasts. The nameplates on their bodies even melted into iron, making it impossible to even distinguish their identities.Keller had to order the corpses to be buried together.When these things are done, it is already dusk.

In the wooden shed, Kuru stared at the work area at the bottom of the lake.In the reddish light of dusk, the mud in the lake was like a dark red magma.Kuru sighed, and the excavation of the ruins was blocked one after another, as if there was something in the dark that would not let him uncover the mystery of the ruins.

With the sound of footsteps, Kuru saw a pair of mud-stained iron boots stepping into the wooden shed.Looking up again, I saw Kyler with a wry smile.Keller sat down beside Kuru and said straightforwardly: "I have something to discuss with you, Mr. Kuru."

"Please speak."

"I have an instinct. From the snake infestation a few days ago to today's giant beast, all this is not accidental." Keller squinted his eyes and said: "I always feel that there is an invisible hand behind these things. They are driving them to happen. If we don’t solve them from the source, I am sure that things like today will continue to happen.”

Kuru said "Oh" and nodded: "General Keller thought of going with me. I was thinking that there are lords in all parts of the empire, so are there lords in places like the wild highlands?"

"Lord? You mean some kind of beast?"

"From the current situation, it may be a beast with some kind of intelligence."

Keller took a breath: "Is there such a thing? It's not Irinal, the virgin forest where the garden called the Nemesis is located, there will be such a murderous thing..."

"Who knows, this world is constantly changing. The wild highlands are sparsely populated here, and it is not surprising that even if there are fiends of that level and treat the highlands as their own lair." Kuru took a sip. Ale, shaking his head and smiling: "This is the most reasonable explanation. We are like a group of invaders to the Highland Lord who has never met. I think General Keller is not unfamiliar with the invaders, right?"

"If you say that, then I have a suggestion." Keller solemnly said: "Tomorrow I want to take four hundred elite soldiers away, and follow the traces left by the giant beasts to find the so-called Highland Lord, if there is any. Hell, I assume that there is such a thing, then we have to annihilate it. Otherwise, next time it sends such a beast or a murderous thing, it will be troublesome. Don’t forget, according to the current situation, the ruins seem to be In the belly of the mountain. Like the behemoth that attacked us today, it won’t be difficult for it to crash into the mountain..."

"Please imagine, if we are investigating in the ruins, the behemoth suddenly strikes and hits the mountain. As a result, I don't think Mr. Kuru is willing to run into it?"

Kuru shuddered and smiled bitterly, "Who wants to bury it alive. Okay, General Keller, please solve this danger from the source. We will not enter the ruins until you come back."

Keller nodded, still worried, and said: "If you encounter a beast attack again, Mr. Kuru, I will let someone send you out of the high ground when necessary."

"I know."

That night, Kuru slept very restlessly.He woke up frequently in his sleep, fearing that the behemoths of the day would attack the camp again.Fortunately, during the day, the camp was calm.Keller organized a 400-man army, mixed several arms, and then led the team to leave the camp.Kuru, as he promised yesterday, did not rush into the ruins investigation.

Regardless of whether it was Keller or Kuru, they didn't know that although the ground was calm at the moment, the underground was very lively.Some tall subway tooth ants are advancing under the ground. These ants are densely packed with thousands of them.If you pry the ground open, you will find dense ants under the ground.This sea of ​​ants is divided into more than a dozen rivers, rolling along the natural cracks in the ground to the mountain where the remains are.

Before long, the ant colony entered the inner space of the emperor snake base.This is when the ant colony begins to separate, as if there is an invisible will commanding them, the iron-toothed ants diverted out like an army, with clear goals to go to the base.They entered the weapons warehouse, into the main control room, power room, and other rooms that were fairly well preserved.Followed by destruction, the ant colony cut off energy pipes, brains, cables, everything that is still working.During this process, ants are constantly blasted by electric currents, and their small bodies will splash extremely corrosive acid. These acids increase the damage and turn the base into a real ruin.

In the whole process, the division of labor of the ant colony is clear and efficient.If anyone had witnessed all this, it would have been chilly.This work lasted for a day, and after the ant colony retreated, nothing of value was left in the base.At this time, even if Kuru could enter the base, he couldn't get any information or knowledge.

But at this moment, Kuru didn't know that earth-shattering changes had taken place in the ruins. He was still in the wooden shed fantasizing about unlocking the ruins and obtaining all kinds of unimaginable ancient knowledge.He didn't know that everything he wished had already vanished under the destruction of the ant colony.

Keller was advancing in the jungle, the traces of the giant beast were very obvious.The ancient trees and huge trees that were trampled all the way, the crushed rocks, and even the dung left by the giant beasts were discovered by the team on the way, all of which were guiding Keller and his army to the northwest of the highland.In the evening, Keller and the others camped on a high slope.Not far in front of the high slope, there is a natural valley where the traces of the giant beasts disappeared.

If there is no accident, the monster should have entered the valley.Keller doesn't know how deep this valley is, it can hold a giant beast, and it will not be too small.Looking at the direction of the valley in the camp, Keller always felt watched, as if there were a pair of eyes staring at him deep in the valley.

A pair of eyes full of wisdom.
