Chapter 456: Encirclement Re-emerges

They were like parasites wriggling in the intestines of a giant, running wildly along the long underground root network, and soon they were far away from the location of the distortion fortress.

"Pay attention."

When they were nearly two kilometers away from that location, the paralyzed Black String Moon closed her eyes and reminded:

"If you go further, you will be out of the range of energy explosion interference."

She only said this sentence and didn't say anything more.

But the meaning was also very clear.

From now on, they will have a great chance of encountering the attack of the nanostorm again.

And because nanomachines are almost difficult to monitor, it is also easy for them to fall into the encirclement of the nanostorm without knowing it.

And more importantly.

He is likely to have been exposed to the monitoring range of the Mechanicus.

Lin En turned to look at the commander and said vigilantly:

"How far are we from the nearest exit?"

The commander immediately extended his tentacles to touch the surrounding flesh walls, and his flesh and blood immediately merged with the surrounding flesh walls. He closed his eyes and sensed:

"There are nearly five kilometers left, and the location leading to it is located in the southern city area. If the Mechanicus has not launched a large-scale ground attack, it should be safe there."

Lin En nodded, his eyes moved slightly and said:

"Okay! Everyone work harder. Whether you can survive depends on these last few kilometers."

Everyone was heavy-hearted, and the speed of advancement immediately increased a bit.

What they didn't know was that almost at the moment they left the range of the energy explosion, their whereabouts had been marked in the monitoring network of the hive.

Lin En and the others didn't know at all that the moment they successfully contained the attack of the mechanical nanostorm, they had been listed at the top of the highest priority kill list.

And the detection method is also very simple.

It is easy to obtain their coordinates by simply performing high-frequency information monitoring at each node in the interference range of the energy explosion.

"The target position has been locked - behavioral trajectory analysis is in progress - it is estimated that the target will have a 94% chance of going to the ground through [Node 4525] in ten minutes -"

"The authority has been delegated - Dear Miss Intelligent Machine - the fifth and eleventh mechanical clusters in the target area will be fully mobilized by you - I wish you good luck."

Somewhere in the Cursed City, a silver-haired girl with a full body of machinery pressed the mechanical device beside her ear, and a torrent of data flowed in her eyes.

"Received - after hunting the target - I will immediately go to Area 1 to assist the Legion in the attack - over."

She pressed a device on her body, and her body immediately became transparent with waves of data.

The mechanical helmet on her face was buckled.

A silver-white heavy sniper quietly aimed at the location of the node leading to the ground.

She was like a cheetah hiding in the dark, waiting for an opportunity to move, dangerous and charming.

And at this moment, in the surging black fog above her head.

Countless black bullets were like a surging steel torrent, heading towards the area in the center of the Cursed City. On the other side of the Cursed City, the huge flying object of the huge black inverted pyramid was slowly approaching.

In the center of the Cursed City.

A huge flesh and blood tree that went straight into the black fog stood there in panic, facing the huge black inverted pyramid from a distance.

War broke out!

…

Underground, the root network.

"We're here!"

The five-kilometer distance came in a blink of an eye, and everyone suddenly raised their heads and looked up.

What can be seen is a vertical flesh and blood cavity like an esophagus that goes straight up, and the end cannot be seen at a glance. This is obviously the node of the root network going to the ground.

No doubt.

As long as they pass through here, they can go to the ground and get rid of the shadow of the horror of the nano cluster.

"Doctor, let's go up?!"

The commander immediately turned his head and looked at Lin En.

Lin En frowned slightly, turned his head and looked at the dark root network in the distance, and felt a little unusual.

Could it be that the Mechanicus really didn't find them?

Or maybe they had found them, but they had no time to take care of them because of the outbreak of war?

But no matter which one it was, the decision was not in their hands.

"The risk is very high."

Lin En looked at the tunnel in the sky and raised his head:

"If the periphery of the root network has been breached by the Mechanicus, then it is very suspicious that we did not encounter any resistance along the way."

The best result is of course that the Mechanicus has no time to take care of them, and then let them escape from here.

But if it is the worst result, it is very likely that at this moment, an encirclement has been quietly formed on the ground, and not just on the ground. In the direction of the other two forks, I am afraid that they have already prepared a net against them.

And the premise of all this is.

The Mechanicus attaches enough importance to them.

"Do you think there will be minions of the Mechanicus blocking the road?"

The commander asked solemnly.

Lin En raised his head and said, "No, if it was an ordinary machine, I wouldn't care. What I'm afraid of is that they will send us a big guy just because of the failure of the Nano Storm. That would be troublesome."

And there is no doubt about it.

Judging from the previous encounter.

The doctor in front of them is probably on the blacklist of the Mechanicus.

And the Mechanicus will kill the targets on the blacklist with iron blood almost without exception at any time.

"Doctor, what do you think?"

The commander's eyes flickered, and he said:

"We can send some people up first. If there is really an encirclement, the remaining people still have a chance to be saved. In this way, maybe the losses can be minimized."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.

There is no doubt about it.

This is another gamble.

And it's a gamble with life, because if there are really minions of the Mechanicus on the ground, the part that goes out will definitely be killed immediately.

Everyone looked at each other, and they all looked at each other.

At this time, the chaotic nature of the Flesh and Blood Cult has been revealed, because when facing a common foreign enemy, they may still work together, but once it involves themselves, the situation will change immediately.

Everyone's eyes flickered constantly, and no one said a word for a while.

The commander looked at everyone's performance, squinted his eyes and stepped forward, saying solemnly:

"I'll be the first one, who wants to go with me, please step forward."

For a moment, no one moved.

And the dozen or so adjutants behind him all had flickering eyes and were hesitant.
