After the Nightmare Lord left, Little Rascal said, "Ding Meng, do you really believe that guy's words?"
This time, Ding Meng didn't ask about their data. Instead, he slowly nodded. "He wasn't lying. I could tell."
Little Rascal asked curiously, "Is it because of that Little Red Riding Hood?
What kind of poison is Little Red Riding Hood?
How come I don't have a sample in my database? "
Xiao Ai said, "I don't have it in my database either."
It was normal that the two of them didn't know. After all, the database they had copied was only related to the Norse Empire and the Holy Grail Federation.
This was because Little Red Riding Hood was one of the most classic poisons in the Devouring World. Many years ago, when the Holy Grail Federation and the Devouring World were at war, this poison called Little Red Riding Hood had caused almost all human soldiers to tremble in fear. Even Origin Ability users were no exception.
The composition of this poison was not complicated, but it could exist in many forms. It could be in liquid form, powder form, solid form, solidified form. It could even turn into a gas and spread in the air. However, Little Red Riding Hood had a very obvious characteristic: it could only be fully lethal within the range of the Devouring World.
It was similar to the K-virus. As long as you came into contact with this poison, you would mutate and eventually become one of the Devouring World's members.
The most powerful aspect of Little Red Riding Hood was that different monsters in the Devouring World could refine different poisons with different effects. If a normal Little Red Riding Hood came into contact with a normal human, it was inevitable that they would mutate, but Origin Ability users could rely on their Origin Energy to resist it. However, the Little Red Riding Hood refined by the Devouring World's high-ranking generals was difficult for even Origin Ability users to resist. It would assimilate your Origin Energy and slowly turn you into a high-ranking monster.
The more powerful the monster, the more terrifying the Little Red Riding Hood would be. It wasn't strange for a Devouring World's Great Elder to be able to assimilate a human's Origin Energy General.
This type of poison was specifically targeted at the Holy Grail Federation. It caused the Federation a lot of trouble at the beginning of the war. This was because the more troops that entered the war zone, the more reinforcements the enemy would have. The more enemies they fought, the fewer people they had on their side.
It wasn't until the Holy Grail Federation and the Norse Empire reached a truce agreement that the Federation focused on researching a cure for the poison that the Devourer World was defeated. Otherwise, with the Devourer World's savagery, it would have been normal for the entire Federation to be destroyed.
Therefore, Little Red Riding Hood's reputation spread like wildfire in the war zone. To Little Red Riding Hood, the human soldiers were really like naive children. They were completely defenseless and could easily be tricked. This was how Little Red Riding Hood got her name.
Little Rascal was astonished. "You're actually that powerful?"
Ding Meng nodded. "That's normal. The Devourer World's creatures aren't humans. They live on poison."
Xiao Ai didn't think much of it. "Compared to our K-virus, it's nothing. I compared the real-time data of the Nightmare Lord and Yan Jie. When the Nightmare Lord swallowed the poison, the changes in the data were exactly the same as Yan Jie's situation."
Little Rascal was amused. "Even Little Red Riding Hood can cure Ding Meng's blood?
No wonder the Nightmare Lord was so shocked. "
Xiao Ai said, "Of course. That's why he was so polite to ACT5570. With ACT5570's current ability, any method he uses will be suicidal."
Little Rascal was proud. "Hehe, I didn't think that the K-virus would have so many benefits. Ding Meng, I wasn't bluffing back then, right?
I already said that this is the King Virus … Hey, I'm talking to you, Ding Meng. "
Ding Meng had already woken Yan Jie up and forced her to come to the podium. He pressed her palm on the crystal board on the wall. This board was completely different from the other places. He had already scanned it with his telekinetic vision.
Sure enough, only when the lines on Yan Jie's palm matched did the podium split into two. A black hole appeared on the ground, and the shuttle ladder rose up.
Ding Meng's original judgment was obviously correct. The core of Meteor City was definitely not inside the spherical spaceship at the center of the star ring. That location was too conspicuous. If they really encountered a large enemy ship in space, that would be the first place to be attacked.
The shuttle ladder was similar to an elevator, but it descended much faster than an elevator. According to Little Rascal's calculations, the shuttle ladder descended at least 500 meters before it stopped.
After the alloy door opened, what appeared in front of Ding Meng was a huge cave. It was a very primitive kind of cave that had been artificially excavated. It looked like a cave, but it was actually a circular passage. However, it was huge, even bigger than the Kun Peng Battleship buried underground on the Dead Silent Planet.
Two hundred meters in front of the shuttle ladder, there was a huge alloy door embedded in the middle of the mountain wall.
Little Rascal couldn't help but sigh. "Wow, this door is made of at least 96 yuan of super alloy. There are many complex components that I can't detect. It seems that this place is very well protected. It's not very possible to force your way in."
Ding Meng also nodded. Little Rascal wasn't talking nonsense. None of the warrior-level Origin Ability users would be able to force their way in. Even War Venerables would probably find it difficult.
He dared to make this judgment because there were two black suits of armor guarding the entrance of the command center.
Little Rascal immediately reported the parameters. "Hercules Predator, height 4.2 meters, length 6 meters, appearance similar to a living mantis. It's a classic close-combat armor. It's equipped with a six-leaf rotating laser knife, a double-sided charged alloy blade, an energy hunting net, a micro-particle laser cannon, an ion cannon, a stinger missile …"
In fact, Ding Meng also knew about this armor. The Hercules Predator was the current mainstream sixth-generation product. It was very good at close-combat, and was especially suited for the various complicated and narrow spaces underground.
If he could describe it, the Blackstone Knight was like an iron man. Although it was heavy, it was still powerful enough, so it still had a certain level of combat ability. The Tyrael Armor was like a fully-armed soldier. It was more advanced, lighter, and flexible, and its overall combat ability was strong. The Hercules Predator, on the other hand, was like a praying mantis hiding in the grass. It was strange, extreme, vicious, and full of offensive power.
Everyone knew that praying mantises were creatures that rarely made a move, but when they did, they were quite frightening. Prey that were targeted by them rarely managed to escape.
Most importantly, Ding Meng knew that the Hercules Predator could only be piloted by someone who was at least a beginner warrior-level Origin Ability user. Anyone below that level wouldn't be able to handle such an intricate and complex armor. Just the massive amount of information sent back by the various detection systems was enough to make one's brain drowsy.
Ding Meng felt that he had greatly underestimated the foundation of the Sky Wolf Army, for the outer perimeter of the command center to be filled with such guards.
The old saying was quite reasonable. The mercenaries on the ground of Flying Star City all looked mediocre, but the command center buried underground was much more powerful than the ones on the ground.
However, Ding Meng wasn't intimidated. He supported the weak Yan Jie and slowly walked towards the gate. Two soldiers in armor immediately raised their mechanical arms and saluted. "Miss Yan!"
Ding Meng said in a deep voice, "Miss Yan isn't feeling well, so I brought her down here to rest."
The scanning systems of the two armor quickly shot out five or six laser beams and scanned Ding Meng's body. Yan Jie waved her hand. "This is my friend. It's his first time in Meteor City. Let him pass."
She had to lie even if she didn't want to. Ding Meng's claws were usually stuck to the inside of his sleeves, but right now, his hand was holding Yan Jie's shoulder. As long as she dared to call for help, Ding Meng was confident that he could cut her throat before the armor moved.
The guard hesitated and said, "Miss Yan, you can't enter or leave the command center at will. Without authorization, we can't open the gate at will. Please understand."
Yan Jie's wristband had been thrown into the sea long ago, and the authorization verification inside was also gone.
Yan Jie's face darkened. "My wristband is with Uncle Ren. He's on the surface to pick up my dad. I'll wait here with my boyfriend. Are you sure you can't let me pass?
You want me to go up again? "
This question stunned the two soldiers. The mantis heads of the two warframes turned with a creaking sound. Apparently, they were exchanging glances.
After a long silence, the armor on the left finally made way, and the armor on the right seemed to be activating a switch. The alloy door slowly opened to both sides, revealing a T-shaped metal passage that was as bright as day.
When Ding Meng and Yan Jie entered and the door closed again, the two soldiers looked at each other and sighed after a long time.
"Four Eyes, I've been in the Celestial Wolf Army for so long, and this is the first time I've heard that Miss Yan has a boyfriend, and she even brought him back. Am I like you? My eyes are blurry. Did I not see clearly?"
Four Eyes sounded depressed. "Hairy, don't talk about it. I heard that there was a senator's son from the Federation who pursued Miss Yan, but Miss Yan didn't accept him. I heard that the man was quite handsome, even more handsome than Han Yiwu, the big star of the Federation. He's even more handsome than me."
Hairy couldn't help but spit. "I really want to spit out a mouthful of urine and feces on you. You're making it sound like Miss Yan likes you?
You're worse than a toad, and you still dare to think about the flesh of a swan? "
Four Eyes was clearly unconvinced. "But look at that guy just now. He was hugging Miss Yan. It seems like they've been together for a long time, and they're not just a little intimate. That guy doesn't look very good."
Hairy didn't object this time. "Exactly. He's so short, and he looks like a grandson. He's dark and dumb. Why do you think Miss Yan likes this type of guy?
I don't f * cking understand. "
Four Eyes sighed. "I don't understand either. Our f * cking goddess has a man, and I don't even have a chance. What the f * ck?"
Hairy comforted him. "Forget it, don't sulk. Come down and have a smoke. I'm so bored staying in this armor …"
The two mercenaries really did come out of the armor. They sat on the sand and smoked. Before they could smoke a single cigarette, their wristwatches suddenly sounded an alarm. The flashing red light was particularly conspicuous in the open space.
The screen quickly popped up, and Ren Zhan's face appeared on it. His expression was unusually serious. "Peripheral units, attention. There's an emergency situation. Miss Yan has entered the command center. There's a young man beside her. His name is Ding Meng, and he's currently at the highest level of danger …"
"Ding Meng?"
Four Eyes jumped up in fright. He reached out and flicked the cigarette butt away. "F * ck, is that the Ding Meng who killed Brother Long last night?
We even let him in?
F * cking hell!
Hairy, let's go back. Hairy, Hairy?
What's wrong with you?
Are you squatting on the ground and trying to take a dump? "
The Russian: "Motherf * cker, what the f * ck, you're flicking my eye!"
Four Eyes: "Oh, sorry, my eyes are foggy. I didn't see clearly!"
Hairy: "F * ck, aren't your eyes always blurry? Why are they foggy this time?
You really know how to find excuses … "
