Chapter 106 - Three-Way Standoff!

(Happy National Day!)

(Did everyone have a lot of fun today?

Don’t forget that while you have a day off, Step Leap is still secluding himself in his room, madly typing away!

Please, remember to at least cast a recommendation vote, thank you!)

Nothing happened!

Yamamoto sighed with relief.

The expressions of the two people outside the cave relaxed as well.

Even Jia Yan, hiding in the shadows of the stalactites, sighed in relief.

Despite having touched the machinery, the three monsters didn’t move.

It seemed they won’t be a problem.

“What exactly are these things, could they have something to do with this unique ecosystem of the underground world?”

Jia Yan pondered.

If this machinery had nothing to do with the huge creatures of the underground world, that would be impossible!

Because a complete ecosystem doesn’t just appear!

He has always believed that science is rigorous and needs to be supported by evidence.

However, the existence of this world violates many scientific grounds.

At least with current earth science, it is impossible to explain why this underground world has good air and enough nutrients to support a large number of living organisms.

Combining these inexplicable things together, with a machine that can’t be explained scientifically appearing, it’s impossible not to suspect this machine.

The enormous machinery had many tubes of metal plugged into the ground.

“Yokota Shouichi!

This machinery seems to be…

still operating!” Yamamoto exclaimed in surprise not long after he laid his hand on the surface of the machine!

His hand recoiled as if he touched something horrifying.

“Don’t worry.

Our divine object in Wa Kingdom is the same.”

Seeing no danger, Yokota Shouichi also walked in, although he deliberately avoided the vicinity of the three monsters.

He walked to Yamamoto’s side, commanded him to step aside, then stretched his hand to touch the surface of the machine and started searching!

There were slightly irregular footsteps not far from the cave.

“Lord Yokota, they are coming!” A woman from the Wa Kingdom standing outside the cave shouted when she heard the sound.

Unfazed by her words, Yokota Shouichi continued his search.

Step, step, step!

The footsteps of the two people became clearer.

It seemed that there were another two heavy footsteps following them!

Jia Yan was hiding at the top of the main cavity.

His sharp antenna ‘ears’ could even hear the flapping noise of the giant silkworms at the entrance of the cave far away, chasing after the intimidating group!

What’s to come next here will be quite exciting!

Jia Yan hid himself even deeper.

He couldn’t guarantee that the army of weasels wouldn’t detect him, but he was confident that he could hide from the other humans down there.

Click!

Yokota Shouichi was feeling around when his expression changed slightly.

He found a button that could be pressed somewhere on the huge machinery.

The button was very hidden.

If someone didn’t know about it, even if they kept searching, they might not find where the button was.

The fact that Yokota Shouichi found it so quickly indicated that he was highly familiar with similar machinery!

After the button was pressed, the machinery let out a low humming noise…

“What’s happening?” Jia Yan, his compound eyes somewhat surprised, watched as the machinery started behaving strangely once Yokota Shouichi pressed the button!

Tick, tick!

A faint sound echoed.

Following the sound, a movement caught their attention on the surface of the machinery!

Scratch!

A crevice appeared on the side of the machinery, as if a hole had been formed out of nowhere.

The crevice gradually expanded, a little bit of blue light seeped out from the crevice.

There was also a faint white mist rising but the smoke dissipated quickly in the air, as if it had been absorbed by the air and vanished without a trace.

Jia Yan’s compound eyes were invaded by a pale blue light, emitting a blue glow.

The blue was so dazzling and mesmerizing, it made people involuntarily feel its mystery.

“What exactly is inside this?” Jia Yan once again experienced desire transmitted from his biological organs.

Similar cravings had appeared when he saw the purple-red liquid and the black liquid, but none of those were as strong as this one!

A desire and yet, a fear!

It was as though it was something extremely good, but seemed to be toxic at the same time, if consumed, death was certain.

Complex emotions were transmitted to Jia Yan through his biological instinct.

This complex and contradictory sensation almost made him lose his grip and fall from the stalactite.

Thankfully, Jia Yan was no stranger to such trials.

He quickly stabilised himself, allowing his six feet to grasp the surface of the rock even tighter, allowing him to hang even more securely between the stalactites!

Not just him, the three humans below were all attracted by the blue light.

Their breaths quickened.

When the crevice completely opened, the mechanical surface seemed to push out a drawer, revealing a glowing blue object!

It was brought out by a thin layer of square metal, and started to evaporate when it came into contact with air, emitting a crackling sound.

It seemed like a blue salt block, composed of crystalline material.

But the shade was deep blue.

When they came into contact with the air, they evaporated, albeit not very quickly.

“Hori Ichiro, what is this?

Is this what our mission is about?”

Both Yamamoto and the Japanese woman were astonished; they didn’t know why, but upon seeing this thing, their biological instincts told them it was extraordinarily beneficial!

“This is the one!”

Jia Yan, who was hanging upside down in the shadowy stalactites, also had explosive instincts.

It seemed that this thing attracted him more than it did humans, to the point where he was almost unable to control himself!

It’s like a starving person looking at a banquet, all over his body, and emitting a deep desire.

“Hey, you Japanese, don’t move!” Sёarch* The Nôvelƒire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Just as everyone was attracted to the palm-sized blue crystal!

A loud shout brought everyone back to reality from their dazed state!

Even Jia Yan didn’t notice that two men from the Stars and Stripes Country had already arrived at the cave, with Hamilton holding two handguns, one pointing at the Japanese woman outside the cave, the other pointing at Yamamoto inside the cave.

Super Mutant James had a serious look on his face, his usual bi-colored eyes were now shining golden!

He was holding an unused firearm in his hand, which did not seem different from ordinary firearms at first glance, but its use at this point suggests otherwise!

This handgun was pointed at the most dangerous ‘monster’ among the three Japanese, who they were warned not to provoke since they became masters – Hori Ichiro!

Because Hori Ichiro was so powerful, James’ previous easygoing demeanor had vanished and he appeared extremely serious.

He was not suffering from an inferiority complex, once the Super Mutant status was activated, he believed he could confront the monster!

“I was wondering who it was; it’s the two of you,” Hori Ichiro said with a smile as he looked at the two men from the Stars and Stripes Country standing outside the cave.

He showed no awareness that he was being pointed at by a gun, as if the dark muzzle was not aimed at him!

As someone who ‘arrived late,’ he was naturally aware of the battles that had unfolded between Huaxia and the people from the Stars and Stripes Country.

But unlike the arrogant and lofty entrance of the Stars and Stripes Country into Huaxia, this world-class monster chose to sneak into Huaxia incognito.

He even arranged for an impersonator to hold a conference in Japan, fooling the rest of the world!

He had even taken more precautions, such as kidnapping Ye Tongyu and bribing the bespectacled man by the side of the Northeast Wild Tiger.

All these were his actions to confirm some insider information about the factory.

But he didn’t expect that despite having taken the lead, he would still be intercepted by the two powerful men from the Stars and Stripes Country.

“Monster, I know you understand English.

Pick that thing up slowly and toss it over!”

Hamilton was holding his gun casually, but his movements had no casualness to them at all.

Although the man and woman weren’t famous masters, being able to execute tasks with a Japanese monster meant they were not ordinary people.

That’s why the two elite beings from the Stars and Stripes Country did not underestimate them at all!

Monster Hori Ichiro smirked then slowly stepped forward and grabbed the palm-sized blue crystal.

The crystal seemed to have no harmful effects on human bodies, but it felt like an ice cube in the hand, as if human warmth was steaming something into a gas.

The ‘drawer’ containing the deep blue crystal made a sizzling sound when the crystal was removed, then it retracted back into the machine with a ‘whoosh.’ The machinery’s surface then became seamless again, forming a whole piece!

“Good, now toss it over here!”

At this critical moment, no one paid attention to the wonder of the machine itself.

James, pointing his gun at Hori Ichiro, didn’t falter even slightly.

His eyes half-closed, he gave the order!

Hori Ichiro was still smiling.

Just as his expression subtly changed to do something else!

“I should say none of you should move!”

Two Huaxia Soldier Kings materialized again from behind them!

The two men from the Stars and Stripes Country had been vigilant about the possible reappearance of the Soldier Kings from Huaxia.

But they didn’t expect that these two people were so well-equipped.

After entering the cave, they tore off a piece of cloth from their bulletproof vests, and the whole person gradually turned transparent when it was draped over them!

It was a technology-based invisibility cloak, but because the technology was still inadequate, its effectiveness in real combat was not very good!

But in the dimly lit cave, the invisibility cloaks of the two Soldier Kings concealed their figures well, fooling everyone.

Now that they had emerged, one held a micro submachine gun still loaded with bullets, and the other held a new type of Huaxia rifle capable of rapid fire, both effectively controlling the situation!

Inside the small space, the top combat power of three countries was compressed!

As for the more distant area, Jia Yan saw a cloud of smoke.

Sounds of Weasel Army’s wings flapping could be heard inside the smoke, and two even flew through the smoke and fell straight to the ground.

That was poison smoke!

The equipment carried by the two Soldier Kings was indeed comprehensive!

Jia Yan looked at the situation below and felt the air solidify!

Although the Soldier Kings seemed to be controlling the situation, everyone knew it was like a tight string that could explode at any moment!

To be continued.

Thanks to ‘Mengying LuoLuo’ for the rewards!

What’s wrong with everyone?

Are you all still on your National Day holiday?

I’ve been working hard to update over the holiday, but no one seems to care, boo-hoo!
