Chapter 1849: Chapter 1846: Powerful Invaders
[Outer Fort]
In the crowded compartment.
Han Dong sat in the middle position of the lower bunk near the door, with the story of visiting B.B.C nearing its end.
Pope sat sideways on the edge of the bed,
One hand on the railing, the other supporting the bed, eyes fixed on Han Dong who was telling the story... even within the Starfield Brain, following the story details, constructing corresponding scenes of the Bureau inside.
Due to the small size of the bed, Eugene didn’t have much space to sit,
He could only hang his body upside down on the bunk, listening to Han Dong’s story in a suspended state.
Both Pope and Eugene showed an unusually focused state...such a peculiar group of Out of control individuals and the Bureau design supervising them, it was the first time they had heard of it.
"All the Out of control who make up the [Committee] are Upper entities?!"
Eugene showed a shocked expression; he couldn’t imagine so many Upper entities being detained within a building...[Upper Position] is not something he could reach, the level gap is simply insurmountable.
Even Pope showed a surprised look,
"No wonder the teacher is so concerned about this matter; if these guys really invade, it would indeed be difficult to deal with.
Moreover, according to your description, Han Dong, this group of Out of control seems to be quite intelligent.
They wouldn’t invade us directly but would first cleanse, assimilate, plunder resources, or even completely enslave other worlds, integrating enough power before causing trouble for us.
If it can be suppressed in advance, many troubles can be avoided."
"Mr. Eugene should be advocating for special cooperation with the Black Tower, and I also hope to curb these guys in advance."
Pope said very seriously: "The teacher will surely guide in the right direction... We’re almost ready, let’s move out."
Just as the three of them were withdrawing from the compartment, barely a few steps out of the bunker.
First, a strong blaze from the Center of the Frozen Soil was caught by the eye,
Followed by a bang! A loud explosion echoed throughout the entire Frozen Land.
Crack! Crack! Crack~
The explosion seemed to come from underground, triggering a massive earthquake, and simultaneously tearing out exaggerated giant fissures, spreading from the center to the surroundings.
However, these fissures only existed on the surface and did not touch the core of the land.
The most frightening thing was that a heatwave capable of suppressing extreme cold spread along with it!
"Get back inside!"
Everyone immediately retreated back into the bunker.
A few seconds later, a wave of flames swept past the bunker entrance, continuing to spread toward the boundary of the Frozen Land... the overall temperature was probably tens of thousands of degrees Celsius.
If everyone stayed outside to directly withstand such a heatwave, it would require considerable energy to resist it.
Witnessing such a heatwave locked Han Dong’s eyebrows tightly, "To ignite this Frozen Land with a single hand? This must be a King Level, and not a low one."
Pope responded quietly:
"Indeed strong, but within our expectations... the teams capable of exploring the Shattered Dimension must have very strong powers.
At least the other side doesn’t know of our existence yet.
Just like the original plan, we follow them from behind.
If we confirm later that their ranks include one[Middle Rank], I will take you to withdraw immediately."
"Okay, we’ll do as you say, Pope."
When the blaze had dissipated.
The Frozen Land had fundamentally changed, with the surface ice layer almost melted, revealing severely scorched land... and some bone structures growing in the inner layer of the soil.
The reason a continent that should’ve disintegrated and collapsed could stably drift in the dimensional space was precisely due to these complex and orderly bone structures underground.
The overall temperature returned from minus 200 degrees back to a normal temperature line.
With just one move bringing such an effect, the three of them could basically guess that the other side’s level was likely that of a[Middle Rank].
But none of them was willing to leave just like that, especially since Han Dong had confirmed that the Bone Remnants were here.
Pope and Eugene each had their thoughts,
Exploration of a mysterious continent was one thing, but they all wanted to see exactly who else was exploring in the void space.
The white stone tablet, acting like a ’lighthouse,’ had been completely destroyed by the explosion just now.
The center of the continent had been blasted into a pit nearly a hundred meters wide,
On both sides of the pit, the broken and scorched bone layer structure was clearly visible... if it weren’t for these bone layers, the blazing explosion just now could have entirely destroyed the Frozen Land.
"Causing such a powerful explosion, these guys should have had quite an intense conflict with the Dead Spirits in the temple... this explosion breach has also directly connected the ground with the temple.
Now is our best time to delve inside,
But before we go down, we’d better disguise ourselves."
Han Dong gently squeezed the "Void Bubbles" in his hand.
Three completely enslaved skulls were taken out.
"Each choose one, I’ll handle the disguise for you."
There was nothing much to choose from, whoever killed it takes it.
Eugene took the Bone Engraver skull he killed, still exuding a pungent stench,
Pope took the skull of the big-headed Dead Spirit,
Leaving for Han Dong, naturally the female skull with white hair still growing on top, but it didn’t matter; gender was not at all a restriction for Han Dong.
"Do I wear it on top of my head like this?"
Eugene held the skull and put it on his head, even squeezing his head out of shape.
"No, just hold it in your hand."
Han Dong stretched out his fingers, separating tiny grey roots from the fingertips, allowing the skull to perfectly integrate into Eugene’s under the skin.
In no time, the appearance of the Bone Engraver was sculpted, exuding coldness all over, even its expression and posture were exactly the same.
Softly, Pope said from the side: "Have you comprehended the essence of the [Faceless One]... your technique has improved quite a bit."
"Comprehending the essence is hard to say; I can only say I’ve completed my self-cognition, but there’s still a way to go to truly comprehend the essence."
The next second.
Pope also transformed into a big-headed Dead Spirit with a head twice the size of a normal person, with ice crystals growing on the brain’s surface.
As for Han Dong,
With his hand brushing past his face, he directly switched to the appearance of the white-haired skeleton,
Female body, skin turning into a beautiful ice crystal hue, with internal organs and bones seen clearly, very explicit.
Just when everyone was prepared to jump down, Han Dong brought his skull close to the elderly form of Eugene, sniffing.
"Hmm? Why is there still a stench, my disguise can’t even cover it... Eugene, can you restrain it a bit?"
"Does it smell?"
Eugene immediately stuck out his tongue, wanting to lick himself all over.
Han Dong hurriedly stopped him, "No... it’s fine like this, a little bit of scent shouldn’t get us noticed, since down there is probably full of burnt smell too."
They jumped down together.
At a depth of about five hundred meters, they landed stably on a platform filled with the aroma of grilled ribs mixed with a burnt smell.
Because the top level of the temple had been blasted open, Han Dong and the others directly landed inside the temple, in the upper-level area... everything here had been completely breached, burned, with no clues left to trace.
Just then.
A nearly burned-black skull, with finger bone-like extensions growing from the neck, quickly crawled over from the corner.
"Hurry down to help! Those intruders are heading towards the [Divine Book Room]..."
Before the words were finished.
A delicate, icy-soft hand lifted the skull.
Grey Tentacles emerged from the woman’s mouth, directly entering the charred skull, invading consciousness, and seizing the just occurred memory images.
The next second.
Crash! The charred skull shattered on the ground, turning directly into carbon dust.
"How is it possible! How could these guys appear here?" Han Dong was so shocked, speaking to himself.
"Nicholas, who exactly are the intruders?"
"They’re the Out of control individuals from the Black Tower Control Bureau I just told you about!"
