Since they encountered the strange statue, they didn't encounter anything special along the way. They had been sailing in such a calm and peaceful way for five days, which even made soshyang feel strange.

After the sixth day, the driver sent a message that they had left the underground river, but they could no longer move forward, because the bunker in front was unusually strong, and there seemed to be signs of artificial reinforcement.

Therefore, soshyan ordered all to get off the ship, and eight teams of nearly 100 soldiers quickly assembled in an open underground cave, including two terminator teams.

Along with them, except judge angelica, there was only a mortal, the mechanical priest Loken.

In fact, in these days, Loken has been secretly "observing" angelica. After all, there is only one woman among a group of muscular men, and she is a tall, slim and curvy woman. It is a great underestimation to use the word "beautiful".

Not to mention the black tight uniform on her with white skin, which makes her figure more angry. It's hard not to attract Loken.

"This place --"

After counting the number of people, soshyan personally inspected the surrounding environment. He accidentally found that the cave may not be natural, because he saw many eroded columns and collapsed vents. When he carefully measured the space half submerged in the water with his feet, he found that the place seemed to be a perfect square.

In other words, it is indeed chiseled out, and its purpose is likely to be a warehouse.

"Maybe this is part of the underground works that green Pi used to dig."

Looking at these prehistoric relics, Talos sighed softly.

"I hope they're all dead."

Soshyan suddenly looked at him.

"Hello, what's in the picture?"

"Nothing. Don't worry."

Talos didn't want to say that soshyan was not good at asking. He looked at the locator. Now they are less than 20 kilometers away from Hades nest. It won't take long to reach the outer area of the nest.

"Commander Zhan!"

Suddenly, a soldier made a surprised voice.

Soshyan went over and looked. It turned out that the soldier found a pile of debris, which was mainly composed of a large number of damaged equipment parts, and a little residual bone could be found.

"This is..."

After watching for a while, soshyan suddenly bent down and detected something from inside.

"The mechanical teacher has come."

It was a rusty gear pendant, and only the mechanical gods would wear it in the Empire.

After that, they searched around for a while and found a lot of wreckage related to mechanical education. Finally, soshyang speculated that a team of mechanical education arrived here a long time ago.

But for some reason, they finally lost the whole army here.

Or fled from here.

"It seems that there is no peace ahead."

After discussing with Talos and others, soshyan decided to proceed according to the original plan.

"March in line, commander mark, you take the second team to the rear."

"Yes."

After nodding, Maximilian turned around and took a team of terminators to the back of the team. Considering that the underground would be narrow, soshyan chose two columns of marches. The terminators were responsible for the mode of leading and behind the hall, and could deal with emergencies with maximum firepower.

Soon, the team set out, and the only two mortals were in the center of the queue.

After walking for ten minutes, through the inclination of the ground, soshyan kept inferring the road they might take, but with the increase of the angle, he began to worry about whether there was another water ahead.

But it turned out that he was worried too much. After walking for half an hour, they found a canyon.

This huge underground space is much larger than they thought. Even they saw vegetation, including low shrubs and huge mushroom trees. Considering that it is thousands of meters underground, Talos speculated that there may be a life support system in operation in this area.

As they went deeper, the darkness completely wrapped the procession, and even the light was difficult to penetrate. Soshyan felt that they were like diving into the depths of the sea.

After more than an hour, he caught a morbid smell of death and decay in his throat, swallowed his saliva and shook his head.

The stench was so strong that his eyes were wet.

"That's --"

Just in front of the team, there was a fallen tree, leaving a large forest clearing under the tree cover. This clearing was almost as big as the holy court of the cathedral, surrounded by some fluorescent objects, on the body of a huge reptile.

The guy was almost twenty meters long from beginning to end. A rock covered with vines could be seen in the distance behind the body.

Soshyan quickly made a few gestures to the others and asked them to guard around the open area when he approached the body for examination.

The team members carefully prepared their weapons and spread out around the open ground to detect clues of another ambush.

Soshyan examined it carefully and speculated that it should be a native creature. It has almost no eyes. It is obviously an absolute underground creature. As for how it died, he guessed that the huge monster rolled down from the cliff and killed a lot of flowers and plants along the way.

He could imagine how it slipped, then fell hard, and finally killed it.

But the problem is, look at the claws of this creature's limbs. It should be a very good climber. It's obviously abnormal to fall naturally.

At the same time, he also saw deep wounds on the creature's abdomen and head. It should be formed by sharp claws, so it is a hunted person.

According to the laws of nature, hunters don't kill their prey for no reason. Most of them are based on hunger, that is, they won't let go of the carcass of their prey - because that's their ultimate purpose of hunting.

With the in-depth inspection, anatomy expert taros confirmed his guess. Scratches and cracks were all over the creature's mottled skin. There were two broken claws buried in its body, and the solidified blood covered the beast. It seemed that the monster was chased down the cliff and fell into the forest clearing.

"Then the hunter must not have gone far. Be careful -"

As soon as soshyan had finished, the attack suddenly came.

From under the tangled vines and bushes on the right of Talos, there was a sudden sound of something erupting outward. The prophet pulled out his sword like lightning, ready to meet anything.

A huge creature in fur sprang out, jumped onto a rock, twisted his body, hissed in his mouth, spattered saliva on the right side of Talos's helmet, and the part of the armor splashed by the monster's saliva immediately began to bubble.

Although these highly toxic mucus can't really damage the power armor, if the monster is a little bigger, it will be a lot of trouble.

The ferocious monster hissed contemptuously again, jumped up from the rock, jumped on the ground twice and rushed straight at Talos.

Bang bang——

After three shots, the monster immediately began to twitch violently and burst through its head and body.

Then it fell heavily to the ground.

"What is this?"

Putting down the arm of the storm blaster, soshyan approached the creature, while the other soldiers were still on guard.

Talos also stared at things on the ground, but his eyebrows were frowned and his expression was serious. Soshyan seldom saw him like this.

"What's the matter? Do you know this thing?"

"Yes."

There is a freak on the ground. His body is stronger than a green skin. His arms are long and strong. There is a long tail like thick hemp rope behind his ass. at the end of it is a fatal bone spur. The most prominent thing is the ferocious claw tips at the ends of his hands and feet. Each claw is bigger than a green skin finger and has a ferocious shape.

But compared with its head, these features are not special.

The head of this thing is also very terrible, perfectly in line with its predator role. The face is flat and hairless. The thick protective skin covers its skull with 6 eye sockets and 5 nostrils. The thick hair covers the rest of the head and extends to its back, arms and legs.

The wound hit by the bomb is overflowing with some smelly pus. It tastes like fruit that has been rotten for many days.

"What is this?"

"Claw demon."

Soshyan recalled the name for a moment and suddenly whispered.

"Dark spirit clan!"
