Chapter 631 Crisis and Opportunity in the Shadows
A deep rumble echoed through the empty building, each beat like a hammer blow to the hearts of Lin Yu and his companions, causing their heartbeats to quicken involuntarily. The sound grew closer, accompanied by a slight tremor in the ground, as if an unstoppable force was closing in on them.
"Everyone be careful, we don't know what's coming." Lin Yu lowered his voice, gripping his weapon tightly, his eyes fixed on the depths of the darkness, trying to catch any movement. Ellie and Xiao Wang were also on edge, standing back to back, taking in their surroundings.
Suddenly, a dark shadow shot out from the darkness with incredible speed, creating a gust of wind. Lin Yu reacted quickly, shoving Ellie and Xiao Wang aside while dodging to the side. The shadow grazed past him, crashing heavily into a nearby stone pillar with a dull thud.
The three looked closely and saw that it was a gigantic mechanical beast. Its entire body was made of black metal, its surface shimmering with an eerie red light, and its enormous eyes radiated a chilling killing intent. The mechanical beast roared and pounced at them again, its sharp claws slashing through the air as if to tear them to shreds.
"Attack its eyes, that might be its weak point!" Lin Yu shouted, firing first at the mechanical beast. Ellie and Xiao Wang reacted quickly, unleashing a barrage of energy beams and weapon attacks at the mechanical beast. The mechanical beast was briefly slowed by the attacks, but quickly recovered and continued its frenzied attack.
During the fierce battle, Lin Yu discovered that the mechanical beast's attacks seemed to be remotely controlled. While dodging the attacks, he kept an eye on his surroundings, trying to find the source of the control. Suddenly, he saw a device flashing blue light on the wall of the building, which seemed to be closely related to the mechanical beast's actions.
"Ellie, Xiao Wang, cover me! I'm going to destroy that control device!" Lin Yu shouted, then rushed towards it. Ellie and Xiao Wang immediately focused their fire, drawing the mechanical beast's attention to create an opportunity for Lin Yu.
Lin Yu nimbly weaved through the hail of bullets, finally reaching the device. He carefully examined it and discovered a core component; destroying it would sever the mechanical beast's control. Just as he was about to act, the mechanical beast seemed to sense the danger, abandoning its attack on Ellie and Xiao Wang, and lunged at Lin Yu.
"Lin Yu, watch out!" Ellie and Xiao Wang exclaimed simultaneously. Lin Yu turned around, his heart tightening as he watched the charging mechanical beast. Just at this critical moment, a flash of light appeared, and the guiding mechanical creature suddenly appeared, firing a powerful energy beam that struck the mechanical beast.
After being struck by the beam, the mechanical beast trembled violently and its movements became sluggish. Taking advantage of this, Lin Yu punched the core component of the device with all his might. With a crisp sound, the core component was destroyed, and the mechanical beast instantly stopped attacking and collapsed to the ground.
"Phew, finally solved." Lin Yu breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his forehead. Ellie and Xiao Wang also came over, their faces showing relieved smiles.
“Thanks to the Guide, otherwise we would have been in real trouble,” Xiao Wang said, giving the Guide mechanical creature a grateful look. The Guide’s voice came through the communicator: “This building hides a great secret and is full of danger. I will try my best to help you, but the final challenge will have to be faced by you yourselves.”
The three continued deeper into the building. As they progressed, they discovered increasingly complex symbols and patterns on the walls, seemingly telling an ancient and mysterious story. Ellie used a scanning device to record these symbols and patterns as she walked, attempting to find clues to unravel the mysteries of the universe.
Suddenly, a huge stone gate appeared in front of them, with a large circular pattern carved on it. In the center of the pattern was a crystal that emitted light, which seemed to have some connection with the crystals and minerals they had been searching for.
"What's behind this stone door?" Ellie asked curiously. Lin Yu stepped forward, carefully examining the patterns on the stone door, trying to find a way to open it. Just then, the ground around the stone door began to tremble, and beams of energy rose from the ground, enveloping the stone door.
"This is bad. This stone door seems to be protected by some powerful force. If we approach rashly, we might trigger danger," Lin Yu said, frowning. However, before they could react, the stone door slowly opened, and a powerful energy wave rushed out. A figure slowly emerged from within the stone door. Who was this figure? What kind of challenge awaited them?
