Arknights: Iron-Blooded Savior

Boom

, boom, boom...

At this time, the pink flock spiraled upwards around the volcano like streamers, and under Dolly's powerful call, nothing could stop them.

The logic of many doppelgangers is simple - wherever it is interesting, they will rush there as quickly as possible.

"It's at the top, little Adele."

I don't know when, Dolly, who was originally hanging at the end of the team, fluttered to the front of the team and was level with Ayafara, and said to Ayafara with a smile.

"Oh my God... This...... This..." Ayafara

looked down at the scene of the crater from the top and down, and suddenly her pupils shrank, as if the red-hot volcanic rock was stuck in her throat, and she couldn't say a complete sentence.

Thundered...... Boom....

At this time, looking down at the crater from the vantage point at the top of the volcano, there was such an epic picture:

what came into view was that a large number of creatures that were so large that they did not even match all the records in the latest edition of the Encyclopedia of the Terra Continent were perched around the central magma lake.

Crabs that are more than twenty meters tall like limestone have formed several groups, each of which has more than a dozen huge crabs, and the largest Rankopel has reached more than thirty meters by sight.

This height is completely equivalent to a building with more than ten floors.

At the same time, there are a large number of exotic feathered beasts of different sizes, and some swarms of flying insects are flying along different routes, basically on the way to forage or return to their nests.

From time to time, in the distance, I and others could also see that a huge Hidden Rock Tooth Beast flew over the rock wall chasing the Rock Horn Jumping Beast that was also more agile.

A large number of core vines, as well as a series of ferns, shrubs and other vegetation unique to the volcanic area, and almost paved a jungle near the red magma lake.

Predators, porters, communicators, guardians, decomposers, breeders....

Whether it was Rankopel or Ayafara, everyone did not think of it.

At this time, the entire crater location actually formed a huge new ecosphere that had been done before, and the formation speed was completed in just one month.

"I... Oh my God..."

Even Ayafara was so shocked at first glance that she lost her voice, unable to utter a complete sentence.

"Wow, whoa, whoa."

Dolly rolled and floated over, and said in a very surprised tone:

"I can understand you, Adele, after all, even I haven't seen this kind of scene a few times, the crater should be a forbidden place for living beings, but now an ecological closed loop has been formed here."

Not to mention Dolly and Ayafarah, the others also showed extremely incredulous expressions, that is, Rankopel and Weis, two outliers who had already seen a lot of outrageous things, might be slightly better.

After Rankopel opened the volcano with a punch a little over a month ago, the top was flattened diagonally, creating a large area of available space in addition to the central magma lake.

It is this increased space that gives the most basic conditions for the formation of the biosphere.

The creatures here seemed to be perfectly adapted to the high temperature next to the magma lake, with an average temperature of sixty degrees upwards, and without Dolly's magenta steam to help dissipate heat, others would not be able to move here at all.

"But the formation of the biosphere generally takes a long time, the carrying of seeds of vegetation, the growth of cover, the migration and reproduction of biological groups, even if it is calculated according to the limit time, it will be completed in more than a month at most..."

And Rankopel pondered, thinking to himself:

"Is this really possible?"

Before they could have more ideas, the little black sheep couldn't bear it, and like dumplings, they began to pour down the slope of the crater.

"Everyone! Now go straight down from this gap and watch your own safety. Ayafara

then came down from the little black sheep and chose a more stable method - looking for a gap with a gentle slope to rappel.

"Okay, leader."

The first to answer was Extreme Realm, and his tone was very positive - what he didn't tell the others was that he had just driven too "intensely" to make his head a little dizzy.

Swish, buzz....

Ayafara's order was carried out very quickly, and after finding a suitable gap to descend, everyone came to the interior of this ecosystem through the rope.

Coincidentally, however, where they landed ... It's actually a hidden crab nest, but the good news is that now parents are out and only the children are at home.

This happened to the large cardboard box in the team, and he lowered the last rope and suddenly found himself next to the stapler beside him, as if a rock had moved a few times.

The big carton initially thought there was something under the "rock".

As a result, he rushed forward in three steps and made two steps, moving the "rock" away, there was nothing underneath, but when he saw that the "rock" in his arms inexplicably grew eight long legs and a pair of eyes.

"Crab...?"

The big carton didn't expect that he was so casual to fish, and a rock turned into a crab in his hand, or is it that this kind of thing is actually so easy to catch?

However, what the big carton does not know is that creatures such as crabs and pincer beasts are actually easy to be captured by humans in the cub stage -

because their vision system is not fully developed, it is easy to mistake humans for the elders of their group, and even relatives, and only a few species of organs that distinguish and recognize smells will be easier to recognize humans.

So just now the crab larvae saw the large cardboard box and they descended from the gap cable, only shook their bodies slightly, and did not make any other moves.

"Well... It's

so big..."

the big paper box held the crab the size of an adult's torso and said:

"This carapace is still a little soft, from the development level of the carapace alone, it should be a crab cub that was born for about a month, and it actually grew so big."

At this time, it was lifted up by the big paper box, and after it saw the face of the big paper box almost at zero distance, the crab larvae obviously reacted, and the plump-hoofed man in front of him was not his own relative.

It's another new type of creature that has never visited here.

The crab larvae immediately began to pull up their limbs in mid-air, their mouthparts constantly wriggling, and if they could make human sounds, they should be shouting for help.

"Okay, let it down, it looks like it's about to be stressed, in case its parents are nearby and are led by it, we estimate that there will be a big trouble again."

As soon as the stapler saw it, he immediately stepped forward to persuade him.

"Of course I know, I have never seen such an outrageous crab in my life, well, in fact, since this mission, after Mr. Rankopel intervened, it seems that everything has gone off the track of common sense."

While answering the stapler's words, the large carton carefully placed the crab larvae on the ground, and only then let go, and the crab larvae ran away with smoke.

After all, he also knows that crabs actually have no habit of preying on humans.

They will attack humans unless they are really hungry, or when they are protecting nests and cubs, or if they see them as competitors for food and other resources.

However, there is also a special situation, some warlocks may be able to manipulate such simple-minded creatures with the source stone technique, infiltrate the battlefield, and block or destroy.

At this time, Rankopel and Ayafarah had been conducting field surveys of the crab's residence since they came down, and Ayafara's notebook suddenly had a lot of content.

“...... It seems that the limestone must have come from a certain group here, and for some reason it was lost and came to a cave near the edge of the volcano.

Rankopel thought to himself as he observed the vicinity.

Roar——!!!

But at this moment, everyone heard several terrifying roars directly in front of them, and the pen in Ayafarah's hand that was writing notes trembled, and a scratch appeared in the lower right corner of the paper.

Looking at the source of the roar, several Hidden Rock Tooth Beasts, which were much larger than before and moved more quickly, jumped out from several hidden rock gaps in front of them and rushed straight to the team of Ayafara and the others.

Apparently, predators in the biosphere came to the door.

Judging from their bloodthirsty eyes and the saliva thrown out of their mouths, it is clear that they regard Ayafara as prey, and the crypto-rock tooth beast has always been a predator that is not picky eaters.

When it is really impossible to find food, the hidden rock tooth beast will even form a group to snatch the crab's cubs, use claws and fangs to break the hatchlings of the crabs little by little and eat the crab meat inside.

Hissing and squeaking -

these physiques and speed are far beyond the previous hidden rock tooth beasts, the momentum is not ordinarily fierce, along the way, some feather beasts and jumping

beasts are frightened and scattered.

They then took the brunt of the line at Rankopel.

“？"

Rumble!!!

Everyone did not see any obvious casting movements in Rankopel, and the ground in front of them suddenly broke.

Boom - then a bucket-thick black-red

tentacle burst out of it, and then snatched at several hidden rock tooth beasts that rushed in front of them with lightning speed!

Poof——

In an instant, like a giant python entangled, it strangled the back half of one of the hidden rock tooth beasts that pounced, slammed it directly into the air, and then slammed down!!

Boom!!!

The violent kinetic energy of this blow burst out, directly smashing the upper body of the hidden rock tooth beast into flesh and blood foam on the ground, and the lower body connected to the spine was once again picked in mid-air by the scarlet tentacle, and the scarlet fragments continued to drip down.

In the face of an enemy who wants to take his life in the first place, whether it is a human or a beast, Rankopel will directly kill without the slightest hesitation.

"Woooo

On the way to escape, they even bumped into two little black sheep who were chasing me and fighting, and they were flown out more than ten meters away on the spot, and fell to the ground with their legs stretched straight.

"Ahhh... Or leader, you are one step ahead of me. "

Wess behind him had actually set up a crossbow, but it was just after hitching the arrow and preparing to wind it, and it was already over.

"Keeping everyone else safe comes first, Weiss, after all, this is not actually a hunting activity, just self-defense."

Rankopel shook his hand and said in a flat tone.

"Ahhh... Thanks for helping... Mr. Rankopel. "

Everything happened too fast just now, and Ayafara still hasn't reacted, just a little stunned.

"Little things, hurry up next, the ecosystem here will have the opportunity to explore carefully in the future, now go through it roughly, and then complete more important work."

Rankopel waved his hand and replied:

"Let's do a brief investigation of the main ecological environment and biological clusters here, and then we will start the installation of the volcanic activity detector in Rhode Island and the magma sample sampling of Magma Lake, these."
