Chapter 435 New Mythology and Old Mythology

The cave is located at a depth of about 150,000 meters underground.

There is gurgling magma flowing out from the ground, like a tide, with turbulent waves and a "swishing" sound.

The stone rock wall vibrated gently, sometimes soft and sometimes shrinking.

Lu Yuan closed his eyes and looked carefully, feeling an unimaginable power, like a drum-like roar. However, this sound cannot be heard by ordinary people. It is a kind of spiritual fluctuation with a very low frequency and only beats once an hour.

Boom! Boom!

This time he was really shocked. This was no cave... but the heart of a living thing!

The underground tunnel they just traveled through was actually just a... blood vessel!

In other words, the rail train traveled thousands of kilometers along the blood vessels before entering the heart.

"There really is a corpse here..."

"Is it the corpse of the ancient giant monster?" He was sincerely shocked.

"Commander, don't be in a daze, we're here!"

Lu Yuan quickly came to his senses and suppressed the doubts in his heart. Maybe the underground people knew some information, or maybe they were just living their lives in a daze...

This is not the place to talk. It won’t be too late to discuss it when we get back to base camp.

"Dear guests, we have entered the cave, please get out of the car."

Oshima Steel saluted in front of the train door.

Lu Yuan followed everyone and got off the train.

What comes into view is a very large train station with rail tracks extending in all directions, connecting the entire "cave sky".

It can be seen that the high-speed train technology here is very advanced.

There are also various gear-shaped decorative items. It can be seen that the gear civilization has a profound influence here.

The air is a little hot, maybe 40 degrees Celsius. After all, the place below is red magma - well, it is unknown whether it is magma or not.

At the edge of the "cave sky", there is a layer of very strange, jelly-like transparent substances that slowly squirm, causing the volume of the "cave sky" to slowly expand.

There are even a few "suns" hanging in the sky, as big as a fist, very bright, shining on the entire underground - they are extraordinary and strange objects called "sun stones".

Excellent level, quite rare.

As for the leaders of the 12 races in the Underground Alliance, they are already waiting patiently. The honor guard beat the wonderful musical instruments and used unique rituals to welcome the human diplomatic team.

The girls from the dark steel civilization are dancing gracefully. The females of this race are really similar to the green girls. Except for their darker skin, they are quite in line with human aesthetics.

"Hello, human friends!"

"I am the chairman of the alliance, Tie Kui. I sincerely welcome you here." The bearded creature at the head took off his hat and introduced these racial leaders one by one.

They are Dark Steel Civilization, Squint-Eyed Men, Minotaurs, Lizard Men, Snake Men, Cave Men... Well, this reminded him of some "dungeon computer games" on Earth.

These bull-headed and horse-faced humans stared at humans one by one, baring their teeth and saying hello.

"Hello, friends."

"I am the leader of human civilization, Lu Yuan."

Lu Yuan bowed slightly: "Since the patient is dying, every second is worth cherishing... So there is no need to make the reception ceremony too troublesome. Just take us to the patient directly."

"If it's cured, it's not too late for us to celebrate."

"If it can't be cured, don't blame me."

What he said made sense. The Underground Alliance hesitated for a moment and agreed with Lu Yuan's suggestion.

So the train started again, carrying everyone and eight mecha puppets to the center of the cave.

Here, there is a large park, about the size of 10 playgrounds.

The altar in the center is made of white jade, with countless gears forming a complex whole. The overall structure is powerful and majestic, and the gears are densely spaced, creating a complex and exquisite artistic charm.

Of course, this is not the most important thing.

Under the altar, there is an even smaller "cave"!

The ancient insects hide in this small cave.

"The proportion of time in the small cave sky is one percent of that in the outside world. It has been hiding in it and has been suffering for a long time." Chairman Tie Kui sighed.

"How was it injured?" Lu Yuan asked.

"Maybe... it was a disaster in the last era. It was already injured before we met it. As for what happened, it has refused to say."

This is in line with people's reasoning.

"I'll wake it up right now...but every time it wakes up, it has to consume part of its life energy. I'm worried..."

The Underground Alliance always has to prepare for the worst. They are willing to pay the medical bills, but the patient's family members are always unwilling to see the patient die on the operating table.

"Mr. Tiekui, even if it can't be cured, we can still do it by feeding it some life energy." Lu Yuan patted the "Devil of Greed" beside him, "It's easy to keep it alive for a while."

"The name of this robot is 'Greedy Demon'. The treatment robot I specially developed is close to the immortal level."

"As long as you continue to provide aura, even if only one head is left and all other organs are destroyed, it can continue your life until the aura is completely consumed."

Suddenly, an emerald green vine stretched out, accompanied by rich vitality.

Under the light, a faint rainbow was even formed.

Tiekui, Oshima Gang and a group of people behind him looked at the ordinary-looking wooden man, and they were all surprised and suspicious. It turned out that a person cannot be judged by appearance.

Almost immortal!

And it is called "Greedy Demon God"!

What is this concept?

You know, in the idealistic world, names cannot be randomly chosen.

If the name and function do not match, it will affect the effect of the item to a certain extent!

Greedy Demon God... How greedy is he? !

They don’t even know if the medical expenses they prepared are enough?

Moreover, the name of Demon God... sounds quite loud...

"We naturally believe in your technology... Haha, using inferior insect shells, you can create a legend... This one you carefully crafted is even more powerful." Chairman Tiekui rubbed his hands and said a few polite words, "As for medical expenses, we plan to sell this legendary equipment."

"Whether it works or not, we only have it to sell."

The subtext of this sentence is: This is the only medical expense, and we really can't afford more.

Lu Yuan also understood the other party's difficulties. He turned around and saw that it was a dark golden axe.

Well, the master craftsman Lu Lun seemed to only make axes.

The quality of this legendary axe was similar to that of the "Earth-Splitting Axe", with about 2,300 spiritual charms, which was considered to be a slightly lower-middle level among the legendary axe.

However, this time, Lu Lun and a dozen other craftsmen did not return to the underground.

Communication between craftsmen requires a lot of time, and just half a year is obviously not enough. Moreover, the social atmosphere in Green City is quite good, and these craftsmen are quite happy and reluctant to leave. Therefore, the underground alliance decided to let them continue their studies for a while, learn more, and stop making axes all day long. It would be useless if a war really broke out.

"Brother Lu, if you like this axe, take it! Just do your best. Even if you cure it to death, we will not commit medical blackmail. Believe in our credit... Anyway, my Bullhead tribe will not go to war with humans." The Bullhead shouted on the side.

Tie Kui's body shook involuntarily, and he subconsciously wanted to scold the bull.

Then he reacted and held back his breath: "Damn it, I should have put a lipstick on the minotaur earlier."

And Lu Yuan boasted to the old bull: "Chief Niu, you put a lot of pressure on us when you say that... We humans love peace and value credibility. When did we say we would go to war?"

"Don't be scared to death when you see the ancient worms later! My alliance is really not weak!" The minotaur said proudly.

"Okay, okay, then we are looking forward to it..."

Several soldiers walked onto the altar and manipulated a bunch of gears.

Then, countless gears started to rotate, and a "rumbling" sound was heard, and the entire ground began to vibrate slightly.

A few minutes later, part of the ground collapsed, revealing a large pit.

A rotten smell came towards them, and all the underground people felt a "click" in their hearts. The smell was stronger than before, which meant that the ancient worms were not in good condition. Even the bull who had been talking nonsense was stunned.

"Everyone step back a little, we have to pull the ancient insect out."

The "boom" sound became louder and louder, and a huge creature that was all black and faintly glowing was lifted up from the small cave.

Even if people had psychological expectations in their hearts, they still felt numb when they saw the real thing...

What is this?

A...real small mountain!

It is really a huge creature comparable to a green mountain. It may be 1.4 kilometers long and 600 to 700 meters high. It may weigh tens of millions of tons, or even hundreds of millions of tons.

This tonnage alone is many times larger than the poppy tree and the painted skin!

A...huge beetle!

It looks like a rhinoceros beetle, and its head has a black giant horn weighing millions of tons, shining and majestic.

"Is this a species left over from the ancient times?"

Lu Yuan couldn't help holding his breath and looked at it carefully, while instructing his companions: "Everyone, don't use any superpowers to avoid infection with the blight."

Half of its body was as dry as wood, completely shriveled, like a mummy that had evaporated its water.

The other half of its body was barely healthy, but only barely...

Countless black air lingered around it, even entangled its soul.

Even opening its eyes and moving a little would take a lot of effort.

[Are you... a myth from the Ninth Epoch? ]

Suddenly, a voice sounded from the bottom of Lu Yuan's heart, vicissitudes and old, [I am an ancient insect. An ancient insect, the original myth of the strange phenomenon [insect], and the same level as you. ]

Lu Yuan couldn't help but dilate his pupils, a little alert, "Greedy Demon" was his trump card, but it was seen through in an instant.

"Hello, ancient insect."

[Still a little weak... Such a small individual, it is estimated that it can't even beat half a ghost. Are you here to cure me? 】 The other party sighed and said in a critical tone.

【The myths of later generations are getting weaker and weaker... What year of the Ninth Era is it now? 】

To be honest, Lu Yuan was a little dissatisfied when he was directly called "a little weak".

He didn't believe from the bottom of his heart that the ancient insect could see through it all at a glance.

Even the extremely cunning mirror [demon] couldn't see through the "Greedy Demon God". Could this huge insect be smarter than the mirror [demon]?

Absolutely impossible!

However, Lu Yuan was no longer an impulsive young man, and he was too lazy to argue with this poor bug: "Senior, let's not talk about these things first. How long can you hold on? My mythical puppet is specially used for treatment. It doesn't matter if the combat power is a little weak."

"I need to know how strong your vitality is. Is it easy to treat?"

[I may be able to hold on for a few more years...] The ancient bug said in a vicissitudes of life tone, [I guarded this land, conscientiously, I don't know how many years I have guarded it, but unfortunately no one knows my fame, and no one knows my difficulties. ]

[I can only die slowly in the pain of poverty...]

[Even the descendants in the outside world have all betrayed me. ]

[I... only have a few years to live. 】

Lu Yuan said sympathetically: "I'm sorry, patient, stay calm. If there are only a few years left, and it really can't be cured, do you have any last words? I can convey them."

This is the truth. For such a huge creature, even if the Greedy Demon God is used to transport life energy crazily, how much energy will be transported?

A legendary axe, more than 2,000 spiritual charms, is not enough for medical expenses!

A business that loses money cannot be done...

The atmosphere was a little silent.

Gu Chong seemed to be choked by him, and said faintly: [New Myth, are you going to leave now? ]

"Old senior, I am the Greedy Demon God. I can be greedy, but I can't cheat. With your little vitality, there is no need for treatment. Keep a happy mood and enjoy the next days." Lu Yuan said sincerely, "The Underground Alliance can also save some money. We don't want that axe."

"Tell me your last words."

As a result, he was stopped by Gu Chong again: [How can you be so disrespectful to the elderly and the young? Can you really cure me? 】

Lu Yuan felt that this guy seemed to have some problems: "What's the point of lying to you? The Underground Alliance gave me medical expenses! If you can't even cure the injuries of a [ghost], how can you still be called a myth?"

"But in your condition, there is really no way. Leave a last will so that I can report to you."

He turned around, called everyone, and wanted to leave.

Unexpectedly, the ancient insect actually changed his words: [Wait, don't leave. Grit your teeth, you can still hold on for hundreds of years, no, thousands of years... Is this vitality enough? 】

Lu Yuan was shocked in his heart, but his face was quite calm: "It seems not enough... Goodbye."

[Wait! I grit my teeth and can still live for 10,000 years! New Myth, how can you just abandon me? 】

Lu Yuan was speechless. It turns out that you are pretending to be in this dying state.

These old guys are better at pretending to be dead than each other. No wonder they are still alive today.
