"Open fire!"
There was no need to consider. The moment Fang Er met the gaze of the bird-headed, turtle-backed creature, he gave the order.
From those beady eyes, he saw a ferocious killing intent!
Damn it, could this thing have evolved into a spirit?
Upon hearing the command, Hao Da Niu was the first to open fire on the bird-headed creature.
The four hundred-odd Gatling guns of the entire battalion followed suit.
In the dim underground world, bullets shot towards the bird-headed creature like a fiery dragon.
"Roar..."
The bird-headed creature let out another cry, and then, from beneath the lake of liquid Taijin, a giant claw emerged.
Countless droplets of liquid Taijin were stirred up. When the Gatling bullets struck them, the high temperature of the bullet tips instantly solidified the Taijin, which then fell back into the lake.
Despite this, a large number of bullets still hit the turtle shell behind the bird head.
"Bang, bang, bang, bang..."
The sound, like striking steel plates, reverberated continuously from the turtle shell.
"Splash..."
The bird-headed, turtle-backed creature seemed to have been angered. Its body suddenly lunged out of the lake.
"Holy... holy cow!"
"Xuan... Xuan Gui???"
Seeing the creature standing on the shore, Li Tai exclaimed in surprise from the side.
Fang Er looked at him with confusion.
Li Tai quickly explained, "Strange waters emerge, and flowing eastward, they pour into the Xianyi River. Within it are many Xuan Gui. Their appearance is like a turtle, but they have a bird's head and a snake's tail. Their name is Xuan Gui. Their cry is like splitting wood. Wearing it prevents deafness and can be used as a base."
"This... this is also something recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas!"
Fang Er: ???
What the heck?
Is this underground world going up against the Classic of Mountains and Seas?
"Quick, quick, look at the Xuan Gui's back!"
Li Chengzong's voice suddenly rang out, sounding somewhat panicked.
Fang Er followed the direction of his finger and saw that on the creature's shell, a square object was slowly rising.
Following that, a transparent shield, like an eggshell, emerged, enclosing the entire Xuan Gui.
The bullets fired by Hao Da Niu and the others vanished the moment they encountered the shield, rendering them unable to harm the Xuan Gui any further.
"Who... is knocking at my door..."
A deep voice, like rotten wood, echoed in everyone's minds. That's right, not through their ears!
It was directly imprinted into their minds!
Much like how Fang Er had communicated with the Mayans using brainwaves before!
"Damn it, it's become a spirit!"
"Headmaster, let's run..."
Li Tai, some what flustered, grabbed Fang Er's sleeve and shook it like a nervous wife.
"Who... is knocking at my door..."
The voice came again. Fang Er looked on in astonishment as a figure emerged from the box on the creature's shell.
"Who... is knocking at my door..."
What the heck...
Didn't they say that spirits are forbidden after the founding of the nation...
No, at this point in time, the nation hadn't even been founded yet!
Fang Er was also a bit bewildered. What was going on?
Could it really be that the Xuan Gui had become a spirit?
The figure slowly descended from the creature's shell and approached them step by step.
Only when it was within a hundred meters did Fang Er realize with shock that this was...
An alien!
He had seen it before in the images provided by the system!
The invaders who had once fought against the Yanhuang tribes!
In those images, the invaders all had three eyes, with an additional vertical eye on their forehead compared to the Yanhuang tribesmen!
This fellow in front of them was three-eyed!
Besides the feature of the eyes, the pale blue skin and the exposed four breasts were the best proof...
If I had to describe it in one sentence...
Erlang Shen had his skin turned blue, and someone transplanted two extra breasts onto him?
"Who... is knocking at my door..."
The person's mouth did not move, yet the voice was transmitted to everyone's ears once more.
"Holy cow, isn't this guy an idiot?" Li Tai saw him repeating that sentence and couldn't help but relax his vigilance a little.
But just as he finished speaking, he saw the blue-skinned fellow in front of them suddenly pull out a strange object from behind his backside.
The object was small, about the size of a palm, and emitted a faint glow.
"Not good! Take him down quickly!"
Fang Er was greatly alarmed. He had seen that object in the images the system had provided before!
It seemed to be a firearm, capable of destroying Yanhuang tribe vehicles with a single shot!
Vehicles as large as Caterpillars!
"Brrrrt..."
The Gatling guns, which had fallen silent when the eggshell shield appeared on the Xuan Gui, opened fire again. A rain of bullets flew towards the blue-skinned creature.
He merely waved his right hand expressionlessly, and in an instant, a light screen appeared in front of him.
"Splash..."
The bullets, upon hitting the light screen, fell to the ground instantly!
"What the hell is this thing!" Li Tai's mouth was wide open, large enough to fit a yak's horn without any effort.
Fang Er said with a grim expression, "An alien!"
He had always believed that the alien invaders had been driven away by the Yanhuang tribes, but he never expected there to be remnants in this underground world!
Even the Yanhuang tribesmen who had ventured beyond the stars had paid a great price when facing them.
So, what about himself?
The blue-skinned man's three eyes glared at everyone, and the strange gun in his hand was raised.
"Ants! You have awakened me from my slumber!"
"You deserve to die!"
As his words fell, a ball of light shot out from his strange gun and flew rapidly towards them.
Boom!
In the blink of an eye, the ball of light exploded amidst the Skyfire Army.
The sky filled with streams of light, and dozens of soldiers were blown away.
The deafening explosion even caused Fang Er to lose his composure for a moment.
"Son of a bitch!"
Seeing his men being blown away, he let out an angry roar and hurled an aircraft carrier towards the blue-skinned creature.
Li Chengzong and Hou Jinghao and the others were all stunned, their emotions beyond description with a simple "son of a bitch!"
Xuan Gui!
Alien!
Throwing an aircraft carrier with a wave of his hand!
Damn it, was this still the Earth they knew?
Hou Jinghao, with his heavy Da Pan Ji accent, shouted from the side, "Brother Fang, hurry up and take this thing back to Mars!"
"Earth can't afford you guys to mess it up like this..."
The blue-skinned creature also showed a hint of confusion upon seeing the suddenly appearing aircraft carrier.
But then, as if he had thought of something, or perhaps understood something, the mouth that had been closed as if holding some treasure opened.
"@#￥……%@........"
Fang Er:............
What the hell was this guy saying?
