Steel steam and flame

Chapter 1623 People at the top of the empire (Part 1)

With a time difference of more than half an hour, he still couldn't completely get rid of the person behind him. After understanding the four stages of surgery, perhaps many things will fundamentally change. But Cassia thought she had been running at high speed for several hours without stopping. Among other three-stage surgeries, except for Zero, who may have the endurance, Cassia can't think of anyone else who has the same physical ability.

The red flag went up around mid-afternoon, when Cassia knew she was being caught up. After that, the danger signal never disappears and remains in the body, slowly increasing its concentration over time. At this moment, the danger is not far around. This tug-of-war should have ended very early, but it was dragged to such a time by Cassia.

Cassia stopped breathing and heartbeat in the silence, taking every step while sneaking very carefully. No sound came out, and Cassia didn't even dare to use sonic pulses. He didn't know what the pattern of perception would be after the fourth stage after being enhanced by the bioelectric induction force field, but it was not difficult for these advanced surgeons to detect the sound wave pulses in the environment.

This is the pressure that high-level surgery puts on those who are in the third-level surgery. Cassia said to herself in her heart, "I can definitely feel it. It's really not a good experience."

He carefully observed his surroundings, not daring to spread too far. His perception was only within a range of two to three hundred meters around him. Cassia didn't know if this was useful, maybe the comfort in her heart was far greater than the actual effect. Continuing to sneak, Cassia silently walked around the low slope in front of him. He was thinking about whether he should find a place to bury himself completely, use rejection to erase his breath, and stop all life activities. There was no reason, and the danger signal appeared. It increases geometrically in the body.

His thoughts froze for an instant, and his instinctive reaction to danger, and the strength accumulated in his muscles exploded at this moment. Cassia shuttled through the air of the explosion and instantly moved a distance of twenty or thirty meters to the side. Then he didn't dare to stop. Although he didn't actually find any enemies, there was a voice in his head that kept reminding him to keep running and changing positions until he met someone he knew. Come down.

The body carried out the orders mechanically, and Cassia ran desperately among the woods on this low slope, denting the ground with every step. It was still not enough. At this moment, the real gaze finally stopped hiding and locked tightly on his back. It felt like being stabbed by a sharp sword. Cassia, who wanted to breathe now, had the illusion that she couldn't breathe. Her lungs seemed to have lost their normal function in sight.

Her feet were still moving, but Cassia felt increasingly powerless. The surrounding scenery had already become something like a torrent, but this speed was far from enough. Black scales covered Cassia's body at this moment. He didn't even know what he was avoiding. There was nothing in his perception. There was no other sound around him except his own footsteps.

The illusion caused conflicts to surge in her heart. Cassia thought about what triggered the danger signal. A huge force had penetrated the air and the trees, shaped like a giant truck with guidance, accurately avoiding all obstacles. The obstruction, even avoiding the air, crashed into him.

The weight that Cassia had always regarded as an obstacle no longer had any effect at this moment. The power was too great and easily penetrated Cassia's body. The scaly state seemed to fail before this power. Cassia saw the air around her explode at this moment, or be squeezed away by the force of the impact. The ground instantly sunk, and the surrounding air formed a shock wave that spread to all directions. In just the blink of an eye, the air around Cassia was completely evacuated, and other things in the space were also pushed away. A vacuum of dozens of meters in diameter was instantly formed with him as the center.

The vacuum has a huge suction force, just like the huge gravitational force of a rotating star. The air that is blown away, as well as the broken soil, gravel and trees, etc., are all affected by this huge gravitational force at the next moment. The direction of the repulsed objects changed instantly, and they all rushed towards Cassia.

"Boom!" In the blink of an eye, a mixture ball with a diameter of several meters suddenly appeared and crashed into the center of the pit below. When it landed, the air was distorted, and dark red cracks appeared in a small area of ​​the mixture ball. The next moment, the dark red cracks turned into blazing white light, and then the blazing white light directly turned into a thick solid white fire pillar. A small ball of the mixture evaporated and shot diagonally into the air thousands of meters away.

The pillar of fire lasted only two or three seconds before multiple explosions sounded in the area. This place was like a core area designated for bombing. The number of sounds all appeared in an instant, and then surged to a peak. In the silent mountains, ripples in the air can be seen everywhere in the blink of an eye, and trees begin to collapse in pieces.

Cassia crawled out from the place where her breath evaporated, and the black scales all over her body were covered with thick light cyan blood that oozed out when the vacuum gravity sucked the material into the body. The heat and corrosion formed a haze of smoke that surrounded it.

He had no idea where the enemy was, but he almost used up all his strength in that short moment. This feeling gave Cassia a sense of fear. Irregular red lines lit up again on the black scales. Cassia grasped the second-generation holy sword and stood there, observing the surroundings.

The air is no longer stable, and the air currents rub against each other and stir around. In the sound wave pulse, Cassia did see human figures, but even at the speed of sound, she could no longer lock on to these moving shadows at this moment. Beyond the speed of sound, air is like endless walls to these people, and they need to break through them all the time in order to gain a way forward.

Cassia didn't know which direction he should be alert to. He knew very well that at the speed of the people around him, what he could react through perception would only be at the mental level, and his body could not keep up with the speed of thinking at all.

"Buzzing..." His thoughts started to move, and a strange sound eroded into Cassia's head, instantly bringing it back to reality. Before he knew what was happening, he felt that the red lines on his black scales were rapidly increasing due to the pull of external forces, almost completely covering his entire body.

Before the second breath came, Cassia saw that within a range of more than a hundred meters around him, whether it was dead leaves, broken and fallen trees, or gravel and soil, they seemed to be born in an instant for some reason. Transformation, all emitting dazzling white light at this moment.

The temperature rose only momentarily. This was the first time that Cassia felt that she could not bear the heat wave around her.

"Buzz..." The strange sound in his head suddenly became sharp at this moment, and the blazing white light immediately turned into reality. Cassia's vision was filled with blazing white for a moment. Breathing, heartbeat, and even perception were separated at this time. He loses all consciousness and exists only in his own spirit, no longer connected with the outside world.

I don't know how long it took, but when these feelings began to return, Cassia took a deep breath suddenly. The dryness and heat burned her lungs, but it actually made Cassia feel at ease. When the sight was separated from the blazing white color, around him, except for a small area under his feet, within a diameter of more than a hundred meters, the ground neatly dropped by nearly half a meter, and countless white high-temperature substances remained, as if they had just been baked. The molten iron is flowing slowly, gradually turning into a dark red molten state.

This is like an island in a lake surrounded by hot iron!

Beside him, at some point, three people wearing different clothes were already standing around, alert to their surroundings.
