Chapter 1119 - Battle in the Nest
The large metallic doors slid open gradually. Gazing at the dim, gloomy space ahead, Rhode extended his arm and slid his finger across the hilt gently. According to the conclusion of his younger sister’s investigations, this should be where the last piece of slate was. Judging from the look of this place, it indeed resembled a place of huge importance.
In the Americas Region’s headquarters? Perhaps this may turn out to be a bothersome international issue.
Rhode shook his head and threw this thought to the back of his head. No matter what and who the enemies were, he must get his hands on the Akashic Slate. Anyway, everything would be fine as long as it didn’t involve his country because if it did, he might need to use means of communication and oppression to reach his goal. But now, since this shabby place had nothing to do with him at all, he couldn’t care less about it.
“———!”
The exhaust from the isolated cabin sounded and Rhode turned a deaf ear to it. He squinted at the heavy metallic door ahead, while listening to Lydia’s rather uncertain voice.
“Please be careful, Your Majesty Rhode. I sense a strong, sinister energy.”
“Yes, me too.”
Rhode nodded at her reminder. In fact, just like Lydia, he also sensed that something was amiss with this building. If it were said that Rhode sensed an extremely familiar technological feel in the earlier bases, the presence of this seemingly high-tech building felt more like a certain decaying and dangerous ruin to him. It had a mysterious, faint, and dangerous atmosphere that could not be neglected.
At this moment, Rhode and the three young ladies weren’t wearing spacesuits. As long as one reached their caliber and activated the spiritual shield, one could be isolated from external harm. They didn’t need to breathe either, not to mention worrying about the harsh coldness of space and immense difference in air pressure. Perhaps Rhode should consider if he could burst through the atmosphere himself.
Beep——! Beep——! Beep——!
“Ahhh, I can’t take it anymore. This is too, too, too, too disgusting!”
Mini Bubble Gum squealed and raised her arms high. Along with this movement, a dazzling light beam shone from above, striking the floor heavily. Shortly after, the holy and powerful force dispersed like bolts of lightning, devouring the chunks of flesh around her.
“What are they?”
Meanwhile, Rhode had also flitted across and dodged the berserk attacks of the tentacles. He clearly witnessed that these creatures weren’t just tentacles. The tentacles were covered in crimson eyes and their tip was full of razor-sharp teeth in a mouth. This was his first time seeing such creatures, not to mention Mini Bubble Gum. Even though he had encountered several disgusting creatures in the Bottomless Abyss, such strange creatures were still rather rare. At this moment, his younger sister’s frantic and terrified voice sounded in his head.
“Be careful, Big Brother, this is a Chaos Nest!”
“Is it difficult to deal with?”
Rhode evaded the tentacle’s ambush and retaliated with his sword at the same time. Even though the silver-whitish, holy sword slashed the tentacle successfully, it wasn’t destroyed by him effortlessly like the other creatures he encountered. On the contrary, he even felt recoil against the blade. Although the tentacle eventually collapsed to the might of the holy sword, Rhode was still astonished. After all, it seemed to him that theoretically, no one in this world could match up against him. Not only that, but he also sharply sensed that the presence of Chaos was getting denser! And it was slowly overwhelming their strength of Order!
This isn’t logical… no, even though it isn’t logical to begin with, this is too illogical!
Rhode had never faced such a creature even in the game which was why he didn’t know how to react to them. Even though he knew there must be a core somewhere, it seemed to him that the creature had fused with the base entirely. In this situation, he couldn’t let his younger sister infiltrate the computer system and conduct leisurely research anymore. But if this continued, the situation might worsen.
“It will be really tough, Big Brother. They used to be the main fighting force of Chaos when they invaded the Dragon Soul Continent. They can devour Order Beings, inject Chaos into them, and convert them into formidable Chaos Beings! In terms of level in the game, the lowest level of these Chaos Beings is 65, at the Elite Stage, and the highest can go up to level 75! We have to destroy this place entirely. If not, the Chaos Nest will use this place as a trigger point and dominate the entire moon!”
This spells trouble!
Rhode’s expression sank slightly. He raised his left hand and along with his movement, dazzling rays emanating from a summoning ritual erupted with him standing in the middle.
“Canary, Bubble, Lydia. Go all-out; we’re going to destroy this place!”
