After growing out a new arm, the metallic lifeform roared once more. Its black metallic body suddenly swelled up like a balloon before quickly exploding!
With a loud bang, the metallic lifeform's body exploded into countless small black spheres that shot out in all directions.
The sturdy buildings closest to the metallic lifeform were shot through by these small black spheres, as if they were made of paper.
The metallic lifeform's self-detonation was simply too destructive!
Chen Mo finally understood why Undersea City had been reduced to ruins.
This was undoubtedly the work of the metallic lifeform. A metallic lifeform's self-detonation was enough to cause ruins to appear.
What made Chen Mo's face sink even more was that after the metallic lifeform self-detonated, the scattered metallic spheres, upon encountering the metallic lifeform of Undersea City, quickly melted into the metallic lifeform, fusing the metallic lifeform into the sphere.
Then, these black metal spheres all turned into wriggling balls of liquid metal. They quickly swam back from all directions, forming metallic lifeforms once more.
With the replenishment of the metal, the metallic lifeform instantly returned to its original state. The effects of tearing off its arm no longer existed.
Through self-detonation, while inflicting enormous damage to the enemy, it also allowed its own body to recover.
This ability was simply too powerful!
Chen Mo sucked in a breath of cold air. Seeing the metallic lifeform's gaze seemingly fixed on him, Chen Mo no longer hesitated and also jumped into the underground street.
As for the metallic lifeform, it seemed to have some misgivings about the underground street. After hesitating for a moment, it didn't chase after them.
Within the underground street.
"You must have come from the outside world, right?
Who was it that issued the order for the city to rise?
Forget it, it doesn't matter who it was. Grandpa and I can finally leave this place. "
The youth was called Tana. He was already chatting with Viya and the others.
Viya's clan had pursued Undersea City for who knew how many years. Seeing the residents of Undersea City, they were all extremely excited and surrounded Tana.
"Leave?
You want to leave Undersea City and abandon this city? "
But Tana's words surprised Viya and the other clansmen. One of them asked in disbelief.
"Of course. This city is already finished. There is also a very powerful monster. This monster has killed many, many people. If we continue to stay here, Grandpa and I will be killed by it sooner or later. Of course, we have to leave before it kills us."
Tana looked at the others with a strange expression.
These people had personally experienced the power of the metallic lifeform. If he hadn't intervened, these people might have been killed by the metallic lifeform.
With such a powerful monster here, it was better to leave.
"But this is Undersea City, one of the seven most powerful cities in ancient times!"
Wei Ya's clansmen said excitedly.
In their view, Undersea City was a symbol of honor, yet Tana had given it up without the slightest reluctance. This made them feel that the time their race had spent on it was a waste.
"It's true that this is Undersea City, but that was a long time ago. I don't know how this city existed in ancient times before the city was thawed, but to me, this city is just a prison with powerful monsters.
The people here can't leave this place to go to the outside world, so they can only fight with the monster. As a result, the monster becomes stronger and stronger, and fewer people die here. Since I was young, I've seen two to three hundred people killed by that monster. "
Tana's voice sank slightly. Hearing this, Wei Ya's clansmen were stunned.
They didn't expect that Undersea City was not as beautiful as they had imagined. Instead, it was like hell, and the people living here suffered great suffering.
"Thawed?
What do you mean by thawed? "
Chen Mo was different from Wei Ya's clansmen. He was concerned about something else.
"Well, you know that Undersea City is an ancient city that has been around for thousands of years.
It's impossible for a closed city with powerful monsters to last for thousands of years.
In fact, I don't know the specific reason, but the people in this city have been in a frozen state for a long time. It was only more than a hundred years ago that everyone was thawed and began to move again.
Originally, according to the original intention of those who recovered, they wanted to let Undersea City surface so that they could see the light of day again.
But for some reason, after thousands of years, many of Undersea City's functions have lost their function.
Undersea City can't resurface, so they can only live on the seabed and slowly study a way to leave.
If that was the case, then it would be fine. After a long time, they could always find a way to leave.
Not long after the thawing, they discovered that a powerful metal monster had appeared in the city for some unknown reason. The attack methods they had mastered were useless against this metal lifeform.
The metal lifeform could easily kill the people here. As time passed, more and more people died. The focus of people's research shifted from leaving the seabed to methods to deal with the metal lifeform. The weapon in my hand is the result of their research.
But unfortunately, the results of this research came too late. By the time the weapon was manufactured, the people in the city had almost all died, and the city had become a ruin.
Now, the only people left in the city are me and my grandfather. If we continue to stay here, my grandfather and I will be killed sooner or later. "
Speaking of this matter, Tana's voice was a bit gloomy at the beginning. The deaths of a large number of people in the city would undoubtedly have a negative impact on him.
However, when he talked about leaving Undersea City with his grandfather, his voice was full of enthusiasm.
Hearing this, Wei Ya's clansmen fell silent.
If they were in Tana's position, they would have done the same.
They had always been influenced by the records of their clan, thinking that Undersea City was a very beautiful city. But in Tana's eyes, this city was a prison with demons.
Tana led the way in front. Chen Mo also noticed that there were many blue metal spheres around the underground street, emitting a faint fluorescent light in the dark.
"You noticed this?
This is a metal virus used to deal with the metal lifeform. If the metal virus is placed in the surroundings, the metal lifeform won't easily approach.
Some of the main places in the underground street have metal viruses, so these places are basically safe.
But the metal virus quickly loses its effect under light, so this method won't work on the surface. Once the metal lifeform notices this characteristic of the metal virus, it will directly tear down the underground street. Grandfather and I will be in danger, so we have to leave before the metal lifeform notices. "
Tana explained again. Chen Mo understood why the metal lifeform didn't chase them into the underground street. Obviously, it had some misgivings about the metal virus in the underground street.
"Grandpa Otto, I'm back.
Grandpa, you were right, the city will shake. The city really rose to the surface of the sea. Someone outside activated the order for the city to rise. We can leave this place! "
Tana led them to a hidden passage in the underground street. Even before they entered the door, Tana shouted excitedly.
Everyone followed him in. Unlike the hidden passage in the room, the room was very big and tidy.
In a small room, everyone saw a white-haired old man.
The old man was lying on the bed, seemingly unable to move. He was holding a book and slowly flipping through it.
When Tana came in, the old man put down the book in his hand.
"They are outsiders?" The old man looked at Chen Mo and the others.
"Yes, grandpa, they should be the ones who activated the order.
They were just attacked by that monster, so I saved them. "
Tana said proudly.
"Well done, Tana. Go prepare some food to greet the guests." The old man instructed Tana. Without saying anything else, Tana cheered and ran off.
"We've made a fool of ourselves. Although Tana is not young, he is still like a child. There are many things he doesn't understand." Old man Otto looked at them and said with a smile.
"You must've come here for this Undersea City.
In this city, the only people still alive are me and Tana. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that we are the masters of this place.
I can make the decision to give you this city, but you have to agree to one condition of mine. "
…
The first one was even worse.
