Beast Taming: Abyssal Descent
Chapter 550 - 400: Prison of Roots Filling the Sky
One round after another of Transformers, conducting a relay race.
Energy light pillars bombard the ground continuously.
The soil layers are blasted into deep pits, advancing toward the underground laboratory.
But how could the Silver Cannibal Tree trapped in the underground laboratory not have the ability to sense the external world?
As early as the first bombardment by Mo Qingchen and his team, the Silver Cannibal Tree understood that enemies had arrived, and they were coming for it.
However, it did not take any action because the enemies were flying in the air, and even using its hidden roots, it couldn’t attack the airborne enemies.
But it did not remain idle; it secretly used its roots, taking advantage of the concealment of the red mist and the cover of nearby skyscrapers, quietly gathering.
It was waiting for an opportunity, a chance to escape the underground prison, so it had to bide its time.
Once it escapes, it will deliver a fatal blow to those mechanical birdmen in the sky!
A mere group of Tier Four mechanical trash dares to provoke such a terrifying existence; death is their destiny!
With both sides cooperating willingly, one willing to attack and the other willing to endure, the energy light pillars quickly revealed the underground laboratory.
"Master, a special metal protective layer has been detected that can absorb a large amount of energy. The bombing by the Tier Four Transformers’ energy light pillars is no longer effective and cannot penetrate the outer wall of the underground laboratory."
[Wolf King]immediately conducted a scan of the underground laboratory and discovered its peculiarities, reporting them to Mo Qingchen.
"I knew it wouldn’t be easy to penetrate the underground laboratory, otherwise, how could this Silver Cannibal Tree have stayed obediently in the laboratory and not escaped long ago."
That makes sense; the laboratory must have something extraordinary to restrain the Silver Cannibal Tree.
"[Wolf King], try using various tools to see if we can cut an opening and make a hole in the underground laboratory’s roof." 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢
Sending someone down by elevator is out of the question, not even Transformers; he doesn’t want to waste lives needlessly.
"Understood, Master."
The [Wolf King’s] body moved slightly, hovering directly above the opened deep pit.
Then one weapon after another appeared from the vehicle, including laser energy cutting weapons, larger energy cannons, and even super nuclear cannons.
Each weapon began charging systematically, and one by one, they bombarded deep into the pit.
The outer wall of the laboratory, made of special materials, could not withstand the array of attacks from [Wolf King].
It’s worth noting that, after continuous modifications by the Grey Wolf, [Wolf King] evolved from a transport aerial truck into an aerial fortress truck.
The various weapons on its body reached levels of seven, eight, or nine Tiers, with ultimate weapons capable of unleashing Super Tier Nine power.
With continuous bombardment, the underground laboratory’s outer wall finally couldn’t withstand [Wolf King’s] assaults.
A hole several meters wide pierced through the laboratory’s defenses.
The intertwined tree roots within the lab were also shattered by the energy bombardment.
However, from the beginning, opening this hole wasn’t aimed directly at the Silver Cannibal Tree’s head; it targeted a room.
"Master, the underground laboratory passage has been opened. Should we deploy Insect Robots to enter for search, especially to retrieve data from the lab’s database?"
"Of course, but be cautious of the Silver Cannibal Tree’s retaliation; this creature is quite restless."
Through the images from the mosquito detector, the Silver Cannibal Tree in the underground laboratory keeps trembling, and its roots are moving rapidly.
Who knows what this creature is planning to do.
At the same time, Mo Qingchen, looking through the car window, has seen some of the sights within the pit.
Unfortunately, as soon as the hole was opened, roots below were all shattered.
The roots sprawling throughout the entire ruined city are seen as a series of question marks in Mo Qingchen’s mind.
What he can confirm is that these roots are indeed from an Exotic Beast monster, but beyond that, nothing is clear.
Now that the laboratory’s roof has been breached, the bombardment of energy light pillars temporarily dispersed some of the nearby red mist, allowing him to see some scenes in the underground laboratory directly.
He hoped to see if the lab’s roots might reveal some information. Regrettably, the recent bombardment was too thorough, and the roots near the newly opened hole were all blasted to powder, leaving not a shred for him to see.
As for descending into the lab to view the Silver Cannibal Tree’s body, given Mo Qingchen’s cautious nature, he’d rather die than go down there and court death.
So the situation now is to open the skylight and let small robots infiltrate, searching the entire lab to try and obtain data from its database.
As for the Silver Cannibal Tree, let it figure out how to break through the isolation chamber, and once it escapes, he will check the detailed information on this entity.
However, what Mo Qingchen didn’t expect was that before he had even personally gone down to trouble the Silver Cannibal Tree, it gave him a gigantic scare!
Almost instantly, the entire red mist fell into chaos.
Countless roots tangled together, forming a formidable ten or so-meter-thick whip, breaking through the red mist that obscured vision, and struck straight toward [Wolf King] high in the sky!
