#776 - Chapter 776 Under the Earth's Crust
It seemed like the towering structure was right in front of them, but they still skied for another hour before reaching it.
The base of this structure was also guarded by six giant sculptures, but instead of scorpions climbing upwards, they were ladybugs.
At least, the shapes looked like six oversized ladybugs.
The two of them dug a pit and buried the snowmobile, then climbed towards the interior of the structure.
The entrance was about seven or eight meters above the snow surface, but they could jump up to it easily.
The entrance was very tall and wide.
The height was close to 30 meters, and the width definitely exceeded 200 meters.
Such a large opening was obviously designed to facilitate the entry and exit of large beetles.
The two of them walked into the opening, and gradually the light became dimmer and dimmer.
There was no lighting inside, but their eyes had night vision.
Dongfang Chen hadn't explored the interior either, and was now watching the synchronized footage.
They walked forward for less than two kilometers and then the path ended.
Before them was a huge, bottomless black hole.
The walls were smooth, with no steps leading down.
With this kind of "road condition," no one but insects could climb down.
"What do we do?" Monka Two asked.
"Either climb down, or jump down, take your pick," Nata Two said.
Climbing was definitely possible. The walls were smooth, but they could insert their vibranium daggers into the wall and move down little by little.
It was just that this method was relatively slow. They didn't know how deep the black hole was, so naturally they didn't know how long they would have to climb.
Jumping would be much easier.
Take one step forward, and the body would fall in a straight line.
This method was time-saving and labor-saving, but it was easy to get killed by falling.
Even with a simulated body, as long as the speed was fast enough, it could still be flattened into a pancake.
"Jump!" Monka gritted her teeth and made a decision.
"Alright," Nata didn't say anything more.
The two of them pulled out their daggers from their legs and jumped down along the edge of the hole.
"Whoosh~"
"Whoosh whoosh~"
The huge sound of wind whistled past their ears.
The temperature and pressure inside the hole were constantly changing, but they couldn't feel it at all.
If it were ordinary people, without any protection, they might have died before they even completely fell down.
The inside of the hole was very dark, with nothing except for the faint light at the bottom.
The two of them turned on their energy shields, heads down, and enjoyed flying.
This feeling was like floating in space without any gravity.
"It's so cool!" Monka gradually adapted, opened her arms, and fully experienced the feeling of flying.
This was a feeling of complete freedom.
"Luckily, we jumped down. If we had climbed down, I don't know when we would have reached the bottom," Nata said.
Now the air resistance completely canceled out the gravity, and their speed basically reached a fixed value.
In their own field of vision, there was a parameter panel where they could see the current moving speed: 52.36 kilometers/hour.
This speed was 3/4 slower than the speed of a human body in free fall, partly because the vortex in the cave had a deceleration effect, and partly because their shields increased the force-bearing area.
Twenty minutes later, the light at the bottom became much larger.
From the results of the eye scan, there were actually plants below.
Another twenty minutes passed, and it was already very clear.
Below, there was actually a forest.
As mentioned earlier, the side length of this tall building exceeded 10 kilometers, so their field of vision exceeded 6 kilometers.
Within this range, they could see many things clearly.
About to reach the ground, Nata and Monka used daggers to insert into the wall, and began to decelerate their bodies.
"Scratch~"
The vibranium dagger was too sharp, and inserting it into the wall was like inserting it into a piece of tofu.
So they had to tilt the dagger downwards to obtain greater friction.
The deceleration process took another 20 minutes.
The bottom 200 meters were suspended, and they had nowhere to borrow strength, so they could only brace themselves and plunge towards the ground.
Fortunately, there were extremely large leaves on the trees, providing them with enough buffer space.
The two of them slid down to the ground along two leaves, and landed safely.
"Wow, there's a whole other world in here!" Nata looked around and exclaimed.
Even though she had lived on Blue Star for 500,000 years, she didn't know that there was another thriving world beneath the Earth's crust.
Dongfang Chen also clicked his tongue as he watched the scene on the screen.
"I can't believe it! I really can't believe it!"
From the data on the dashboard, they were now 3000 kilometers below the ground.
From the perspective of Blue Star's structure, it should belong to the upper mantle.
Because Blue Star's core temperature is very high, the upper mantle is an extremely warm and bright place.
"Awoo~" A loud noise, and a violent rustling sound came from the forest.
Obviously, a huge animal was running.
"Could it be coming for us?" Monka asked.
But she wasn't afraid.
"Of course not! We don't have the scent of living things on us, how could any animal be stupid enough to think of us as food?" Nata replied.
