Chapter 25 Ruin Library

"Are you crazy!" the soldier pulling the rescue rope on the top whispered, "Don't go down, the bite force of this salamander can't be resisted without a large-scale crystal mine!"

Gu Li tightened the tied rescue rope, and now he could feel Captain Oxide's cannibalistic eyes without looking up.

"I'll make peace with you when I get it."

The archaeological value of this library is likely to be in the handbook of Patriarch Elder he just saw.

The temperature controller, perhaps when the outlying towns were destroyed 200 years ago, there was also an event that caused the crystal mine to go out of control due to extreme weather, and the ancestors have been trying to study this kind of equipment.

This is the only chance. When I come to the library next time, I am afraid that this place will completely become a nest of salamanders.At that time, it will be extremely difficult to find a few popular science books, let alone these precious notes that are obviously moldy and are about to be destroyed.

The soldier with a broken leg was pulled to the tree root platform on the upper floor. He didn't have time to stop him, and watched Gu Li grope for the rescue rope and jumped down for a while.

Captain Oxide looked at Gu Li who refused to obey the order, and pulled the rescue rope in his hand with a livid face.In this situation, he couldn't give orders, he could only pull up the people who could be saved first.

The roots that Gu Li tied were entangled in the broken part of the ground, and most of the distance below were broken parts that were damaged by external forces, and there was no point to step on.

The length of the spare rescue rope could not reach the bottom, so he could only climb to the place closest to the wall, relying on the thick plant roots climbing the wall to continue down.Only in this way, the rescue rope used to save life can only be untied.

The salamander at the bottom of the library is resting entrenched, and if the movement is gentle enough, it should not attract attention.After all, he is nothing more than an ant to a huge salamander.

Clinging to the wall-climbing rhizomes as thick as human thighs with both hands, he nimbly jumped onto the collapsed platform only three meters above the ground.

This was originally the second-floor corridor at the bottom of the library, but due to extensive damage, there are only some rusty exposed steel bars supporting the building wreckage that cannot be removed, as well as a large area of ​​insect nets and cocoons.

It's just that they didn't come at the right time.Since he came down to rescue them, the cocoons enclosing the baby salamanders have been agitated, biting through the cocoons one after another and climbing outward.

Looking up, almost all cocoons are hatching at a speed visible to the naked eye.A large number of baby salamanders climbed up the tree roots, and then fell down one after another due to lack of strength in their limbs.

It seems that the time to take notes is shorter than he imagined. Once there are too many cubs that fall, these resting adult salamanders will definitely wake up.

After the military boots landed, it was like stepping into a swamp. The bottom was mostly dust that had accumulated all year round, and because it was too wet, it collapsed into a muddy ground.Fortunately, the height of the silt accumulation is limited, and it is not really difficult to walk if you step on it.

The roots bitten off by the salamanders turned into rotting wood in the mud, covered with slimy slime mold, and spore powder that emitted sporadic spots of light in the dark.

There are quite a few destroyed pages in the mud, most of which have become a pile of useless decay due to dampness, and will shatter and become worthless if touched a little.

The female salamander sits at the highest point on the left, and under her body are mostly broken tree roots and insect nets used to build nests, as well as many rusty and broken building steel bars and book pages.

The note he wants to take is under the left hind paw of the female salamander.

He turned the ring to collect the light source emitted by the crystal mine, restrained his breathing and slowly passed between the two male salamanders.When he got close to his head, the foul breath almost sprayed on his face.

Gu Li turned his head away in disgust, he couldn't imagine what kind of smell such a monster exuded to attract Iris.But then he felt that this kind of thinking was absurd, and it was impossible for him as a human to emit a similar stench when attracting mermaids.

Holding his breath, he climbed up to the nest of the female salamander, and the thick creature's tail flicked towards him irregularly.He had to lower his body to dodge, and his whole body crawled on the messy brood.

Looking at the salamander skin up close, it is as hard as crocodile skin.The nails on the four feet seem to be able to destroy steel bars and buildings with a single wave.He even began to worry that once the salamander was awakened, even Iris might not be able to become an equal opponent.

The light beam of the ring was turned back to the back of the hand again, and after turning over and entering the brood, the light source was irradiated downward close to the sole of the left foot.Carefully removed the accumulation on the notes, stretched out his hands several times while lying on his stomach, but failed to touch the cover of the book.

His arms are not long enough, and there are no fluorites around him that he can control, otherwise he can easily get them by using the floating magnetic field.

He hooked some of the fixed steel bars with his military boots, and leaned into his upper body at the place he moved away.But when he got the note and stood up, the regular wind around him seemed to become quiet.

The leaves of the plants on the opposite wall that had been blown by the breath no longer swayed up and down, and the cocoons of the salamanders that hatched around them gradually broke their shells.He forcefully put away the ring light source calmly, stuffed the notes he got into his clothes, and then slowly raised his head.

Only half a meter above the top of the head, the awakened newt was looking at him with green pupils with its head sideways.The corners of the mouth were slightly parted to reveal sharp teeth, and sticky saliva dripped down with an unpleasant stench.

"run!"

Standing tens of meters high, Osid held a heavy bow and crossbow, and accurately shot an arrow feather into the female salamander's eye.

The painful salamander raised its neck and roared fiercely at the warning Osid.The deafening neighing almost shook the entire library, waking up all the hidden salamanders.

It's not just the ones resting underground, there are dozens of male salamanders whose skin color blends in with the environment on the roots of the entrenched trees.

Osid tied the rescued soldiers with the rescue rope on the upper layer, and then blew his whistle to let the rescue team above pull them away.

The arrow feathers of the heavy crossbow will fire one every three seconds, with an accuracy of up to 100%, shooting and killing the huge salamanders attacking around Gu Li.

Gu Li supported the rusty steel bar with one hand, stretched the magnetic field around his body, and jumped onto the back of a nearby male salamander.

It's a pity that the crystal mine on the ring is too small, the stimulation of the magnetic field can isolate the cubs but cannot stop these huge adults.

If it was in the city, even in a base surrounded by crystal mines, he could still resist more or less.But now, he can only find a way to escape.

After rolling twice on the newt's hard back, almost as soon as it landed, the female salamander bit the whole newt that was used as a pedal.The sharp teeth pierced through the hard skin, and the next moment it bit the ten-meter-long salamander in two.

The elevator that can lead directly to the upper floor has long been destroyed, and the stairs on the side cannot lead to the upper floor. The only way is the plant rhizome that just came down.Clinging to the roots of the tree with both hands, he almost tried his best to climb up at the fastest speed.

The female salamander, who was shot blind in one eye, slammed around in pain, breaking most of the tree roots and exposed steel bars.It swallowed the meat of its companion in its mouth, and then rushed to where Gu Li was like crazy.

At the very moment, Gu Li, who was about to be smashed into meatloaf, suddenly tightened his wrist, and Iris, who jumped off in a hurry, grabbed his arm and pulled him in the direction of the rescue rope.

The powerful salamander directly broke through the wall, and the hard underground rock formation was exposed behind the collapsed library building.

He should be thankful that it wasn't the wall of the abyss when the army came down, otherwise he would be facing the risk of the library collapsing now.Gu Li looked at the building stones and powder that were constantly falling down due to the vibration above his head, and suddenly felt that this kind of luck seemed a little too early.

Iris hugged Gu Li tightly and jumped to a nearby tree root, propped his hands on the wall to protect his spouse in his arms, blocked the falling stones with his body, and looked fiercely at the other aggressive salamanders around him. salamander.

Sharp claws pierced through leather gloves and disemboweled a male salamander approaching him from jaw to tail.

It obviously didn't roar like a wild beast, but the silent aura seemed to be more intimidating than the salamander's roar.

Iris threw away the torn salamander carcass, grabbed the other one that rushed forward with his backhand, tightened his five fingers and cut off his breath, and threw it towards the female salamander provocatively.

In a hurry, Gu Li touched the rescue rope thrown down by Ossid, quickly tied his and Iris's waist and abdomen, and then shouted to Ossid above: "Pull up!"

Ossid blew his whistle, held a heavy crossbow with both hands, ordered the soldiers above to rescue him, and at the same time kept clearing the salamanders around Gu Li and himself.

However, there are too many salamanders, especially the young ones that have bitten through the cocoon. Although they are not so lethal, they are much more difficult to deal with than the adult salamanders, and they almost sneak into the cracks.

He put two arrow feathers at his feet, and only then did the swarming young salamanders flinch.

The head of the arrow feather is made of suppressing crystal ore, but it is too small to be effective against cubs, but it is negligible to deal with these adults.He really should apply to the patriarch to bring that old Daoporing guy with him the next time he is dispatched, and use his talent to grind the crystal ore into powder, which is definitely much wider than shooting the whole piece.

Just when he was worried that there were not enough arrow feathers, he suddenly saw a salamander rushing towards Gu Li and Iris being torn to pieces.The soldier who jumped down to save others regardless of his stop was as strong as a wild beast!

He didn't have time to marvel at how a human could have such great strength, then he put on his bow and moved the gears, shouting at the two people below: "Go to the platform on the right, the tree's roots are about to break!"

The overall length of the female salamander is about 30 meters. When the two front legs are climbing up the tree roots on the wall, they can easily reach Gu Li's position with almost one step.

The sharp nails clung to the broken window on the wall, screamed at Iris who was holding Gu Li, and rushed over looking for the smell.

Gu Li stretched out his legs and kicked hard on the thick tree root, and the two of them swung from the right side of the tree root to the left side like a swing.

Holding the rescue rope tightly with his right hand, he raised the long sword condensed on the ring of his left hand, and when he staggered away from the female salamander by inertia, he cut a deep bone-deep gap in her exposed belly.

The painful salamander fell down, but soon climbed up the roots of the tree again to where the two were.

Gu Li had an idea, and said to Iris who was protecting him: "Get into heat! Use your scent to seduce it! This will reduce the aggressiveness of the female salamander."

Iris's expression was not very good-looking, obviously very angry at Gu Li's words.His mate made him estrus with other creatures, and there was no other such mate in the whole sea.

The pulling speed of the rescue rope began to increase, and the resistance became smaller as it went up. It was not until the two of them struggled to reach Osid's position that Gu Li dared to expand the magnetic field controlled around him.Let the baby salamanders sticking out of the water molecules distance themselves, and then turn the ring to crush all the baby salamanders.

Feeling the mass death of her cubs, the female salamander gradually went into a frenzy. Her huge body struggled to climb up, and she swung her long tail and smashed all the buildings near the three of them.

Osid took the two of them behind him, and before the head of the female salamander hit, he neatly shot the last arrow into the other eye of the newt.

"Go up, let the people from the second team pull the rope!"

Without saying a word, he also tied the end of the rescue rope to his waist and abdomen.

Gu Li took the lead to climb up to the floor with the big restaurant, and shouted to Remy who was guarding the entrance: "Quickly tie the rescue rope and let the soldiers above pull people away!"

Compared with Gu Li at the moment, Remy's demeanor was unreasonably calm.His right leg and left arm were severely injured, and the injuries could not be seen clearly through the ripped military uniform.But because of excessive force when pulling the rescue rope, bright red blood flowed out continuously, soaking half of the military uniform.

The two wounded soldiers who had just been rescued had been pulled safely to the ground. After a second inspection of the safety buckle connected to the climbing rope, they said to Gu Li, "You guys go up first, and I will do the rest."

"What do you mean?" Before Gu Li could finish asking, Remy tied climbing ropes around the waists and abdomens of the two of them one after another, and made a gesture of pulling up to the second team above under the heavy rain.

Finally, Captain Ossid, who climbed up to the dining room, pulled over the long rusty table in the doorway and kicked it down, and blocked the stairs tightly, so as to temporarily block the small salamanders.

Seeing Remy who was stalemate at the entrance and not tying himself with a rope, he couldn't help saying angrily: "What are you dawdling about! Why don't you hurry up."

It was raining heavily outside the library, and Gu Li and Iris couldn't climb normally like when they came down, so they had to rely on the second team of soldiers on the ground to pull them.

Looking down, I saw that Remy who asked them to come up first was pointing at Captain Ossid with a dagger, and forced the captain to tie the climbing rope before him with a painful face.Then, with red eyes, he tore off his code tag from his neck and threw it to the captain. He said with a choked voice, "If you meet a girl who came to the archaeological army to look for me, tell her for me, don't wait for me."

After saying that, he took out a stick of explosives from the mountaineering bag at his feet, lit the fuse, and looked at the seven or eight salamanders in the big restaurant that knocked over the long table.

He tore off the blood-stained long sleeve, exposing the arm bitten by the newt, cursed angrily, and rushed into the corridor with a mountaineering bag containing more explosives.
