The roar of ice breaking came from deep in the tundra.
The corpse covered with dark red frost suddenly began to wriggle, and each bead of coagulated blood reflected a tiny, swirling yellow mark.
The abdomens of the wolves that had gnawed on the corpses swelled strangely, and through their gradually translucent bellies, one could see some egg-shaped objects covered in mucus pulsating.
The eyes of the wolf leader were filled with incomprehensible madness. Its broken claws dug deep into its swollen eye sockets, but what flowed out was not blood, but large groups of fluorescent spores wrapped around nerve endings.
Just at this moment, the aurora tore through the dark clouds and fell on the direwolves.
The curtain that should have been green was filled with a dirty dark yellow like asphalt, and the sky seemed to have been torn open with a festering wound.
All the direwolves suddenly raised their heads and let out non-wolf howls - their throats were splitting into three parts, and the frequency of the vibrations of their vocal cords caused spider-web-like cracks to explode in the ice of the abandoned whaling station.
Thick black liquid oozed from deep within the cracks.
Under the moonlight, the liquids presented a strange texture of metal and flesh, wrapping around the limbs of the mutated wolves like living tentacles.
Gradually, the howling of the direwolves mixed with the sobbing and laughter of humans.
A distorted look of humanity was faintly revealed on the face of each dire wolf.
Those were the eyes of the believers who had just been holding a crazy ceremony here.
hum-
A subtle, low humming sound of some kind of energy flowing flashed by.
A faint blue light band emerged in the void and quickly outlined a light array composed of complex mathematical patterns on the ground.
A team of mechanical servants in battle robes quickly emerged from the light array.
A team of thirty people led by a general appeared and quickly formed a defensive formation around them.
These mechanical servants each deployed positional warfare barriers from their own tactical spaces. Their bodies, which were no different from those of humans, also transformed into mechanical and energy structures in their arms and other parts, combining with the deployed defensive barriers.
But in less than a breath, they had deeply integrated their bodies into this impregnable defense line and formed a circular defense line.
When everything was over, four figures finally walked out of the opened space-time gate in the center of the circular defense position.
Hans, who was as tall as an iron tower, no longer looked like a thug in a suit. He changed into a general's attire, wearing a battle robe. After confirming that it was safe, he stood aside respectfully.
The next person to come out was Jiang Lianqiu, followed by Belfast and von Neumeow.
The biting cold wind made Belfast frown. She casually touched the hem of her skirt with her right hand, and a thick pure white fox fur cloak appeared in her hand.
"Commander, the weather here is very cold, please take care of yourself."
After draping the fox fur cloak on Jiang Lianqiu and tying the straps for him, Belfast nodded with satisfaction and took a step back.
Jiang Lianqiu felt that he was now wrapped in Belfast like a quilt king.
"You should know that my body can withstand this low temperature now. Besides, don't I still have the bracelet you gave me?"
It is a product of mechanical servant technology that combines many functions such as defense and constant temperature.
"But it's a maid's duty to always pay attention to the master's needs." Belfast smiled gently. She had her own persistence and she didn't intend to give in on this aspect.
Jiang Lianqiu accepted the concern calmly, and turned his gaze to look at the group of strange creatures that looked like dire wolves not far from the perimeter of the circular defense.
They completely ignored the crowd that suddenly appeared and continued to madly gnaw on the remaining flesh and blood.
"How disgusting!" Jiang Lianqiu frowned, "It's a good thing I didn't bring Ying Lili and the others here, and didn't let them see what's going on here."
Of course, although Eriri and Kasumigaoka Utaha didn't see it, someone else did.
"vomit--!!!"
In his mind, the sound of Li Dazhentou retching could be heard.
"Xiao Qiuzi!" It stinks! 』
Through the five senses shared with Jiang Lianqiu, the girl smelled the extremely fishy stench that made her stomach tremble.
Chapter 47: If you can't beat them, it's a horror movie; if you can beat them, it's an action movie
The mechanical servant naturally would not feel any discomfort because of the messy flesh and blood in front of it and the dire wolf that was so disgusting that even its own mother could not recognize it.
Not only that, von Neumeow was eager to take the initiative to step out of the defensive position.
Her behavior finally attracted the attention of the direwolves. All the direwolves that were gnawing on the corpse turned their heads and looked at her. Their dark green eyes with a turbid sulfur color showed human-like madness. Between the sharp fangs exposed at the corners of their cracked mouths, one could see a long tongue like a snake's tongue hanging from the gap between the teeth, hanging in the air, dripping with disgusting mucus.
This time, the sounds they made no trace of wolf howls at all, and turned into pure human laughter.
The laughter, accompanied by the sudden rise of a chilling wind, made Jiang Lianqiu unable to help but complain: "It's like the set of a horror movie."
"I need to correct you, Commander." Von Neumew, who was walking forward, turned back and said seriously, "If you can't win, it's a horror movie. If you can win, it's an action movie."
"Kayako is wreaking havoc in Japan. Just ask her to bare her teeth before the King of Hell. She won't be slapped until her front teeth pop out—just like this."
He turned again and stretched out his slender right arm.
Von Neumew grabbed the neck of a direwolf that pounced on him.
He raised his left hand and swung his bow left and right, leaving afterimages.
clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap...
The dire wolf's eyes suddenly became as clear as Su Chang!
In a trance, Jiang Lianqiu felt as if he saw Li Dazhentou. The ice wolf with its neck being strangled actually revealed a bit of stupidity at this moment.
Feng Neumiao turned back to Jiang Lianqiu and said seriously, "Okay, I think this should be a comedy."
Jiang Lianqiu increasingly felt that this scientist sister under his command was a treasure.
"You're still watching movies? Aren't you usually so busy with scientific research that you don't have time to rest?"
"Multi-threaded operation." Von Neumeow smiled confidently, "My subordinates are different from those single-threaded people who only know how to fire and explode."
"Hey, I'm talking to you." Jiang Lianqiu raised his eyes slightly and glanced at Hans.
Hans scratched the back of his head in a muffled voice, "Besides firing and exploding, I can also use my electric eyes to intimidate people."
Jiang Lianqiu: “?”
He watched Hans turn his head and glare at the direwolves that subsequently pounced on von Neumeow. He howled, and two lasers shot out of his eyes. After a few whooshes, the group of direwolves began to breathe out more than they breathed in.
"Look, Commander, these electric eyes are really impressive, aren't they?" Hans chuckled. "I can even fly like a crow. How about showing you how to do it for your amusement?"
What kind of abstract things are these people under his command?!
But Su Chang was still clapping her hands in Jiang Lianqiu's mind:
"This big guy is amazing! Xiao Qiuzi, let him perform the crow flying on a plane!"
"Go play. If you're really bored watching the show, have some popcorn... or a steamed bun will do."
After Jiang Lianqiu finished speaking, Hans said "Oh" aggrievedly and really took out a bucket of popcorn.
A muscular man nearly two meters tall with arms thicker than Jiang Lianqiu's head squatted aside, stuffing popcorn into his mouth while muttering, "If you don't like it, then you don't like it. I can still stare at it with one eye" and "I must impress the commander next time." The scene was too ridiculous.
Jiang Lianqiu: “…”
He was talking about Li Dazhentou, you bastard!
Von Neumeow stared dumbfoundedly at the mutated direwolves lying sprawled on the ground. Finally, he screamed at Hans in frustration, "My research material! Did Sislon hit you too hard on your arms and make your head pointy?"
"Alive! Alive! Don't you know that for scientists, living research subjects are always better than dead ones?"
Finally, von Neumeow cast a glare at Hans, looking at him as if he were mentally retarded. He then sighed to Jiang Lianqiu, "See, Commander, I told you there's something seriously wrong with these guys' CPUs."
I see you're pretty ill too...
However, compared to his previous mechanical servants, he preferred this group of subordinates who had different personalities and often made jokes.
After this incident, Jiang Lianqiu also confirmed that these strange ice wolves were not very dangerous.
He took Belfast and moved forward, and the circular defense formation surrounding him immediately moved forward following Jiang Lianqiu's steps.
“…All of you, get out of the way.”
After making way for the mechanical servants who were nervously guarding him, Jiang Lianqiu finally brought Belfast to von Neumao's side.
The bodies of the direwolves that were killed by Hans's glare were now all covered with a layer of frost. Von Neumeow did not let go of these materials and was quickly throwing the stiff bodies into his personal space.
During the whole process, she was still holding the only living wolf in her hand.
Although it is called a wolf, at this moment, this dire wolf can only be barely seen in the shape of a wolf. Apart from the twisted body structure, the most eye-catching thing is indeed the unknown liquid bulging in its almost transparent belly, and the countless fish egg-like tissues soaked in it.
Each of these fish eggs is as big as a thumb nail, translucent on the outside, with a small black ball in the center.
It looks like a small eyeball...
When Jiang Lianqiu stared at the belly of the dire wolf, all the eggs in its belly turned like eyes, "staring" at Jiang Lianqiu with black structures shaped like pupils.
"hiss……"
He admitted that his SAN value showed signs of decreasing, which was so scary!
Hans had unknowingly stood behind Jiang Lianqiu, also staring at the dire wolf's belly full of eggs. After a moment's thought, he uttered in his authentic Northeast Tieling accent, "What are you looking at?"
Jiang Lianqiu, who was nearly stricken with trypophobia, suddenly felt the atmosphere at the scene become strange. With such a group of people around him, he felt that even the most vicious ghosts would appear and the background music would instantly change to "Good Days"...
While von Neumeow was cleaning up the scene, a group of soldiers were also conducting a detailed survey.
A servitor that was obviously also from the scientific research system shot out a stream of light from its eyes like a scanner, and quickly scanned the entire whaling station at the atomic level, and transmitted the data back to the underground base of the Silver Corona Tower for analysis.
At the same time, Jiang Lianqiu's brows gradually furrowed.
The spiritual perception brought to him by the hunting and tracking did indeed point to this ice field.
But the real source that triggered this hunting warning is no longer there.
If it were in the past, Jiang Lianqiu could only continue to wait, but since he had been accidentally looked down upon by the Patrolling Star God once, he was not without any options at this moment.
"Is tracking such an inconvenient thing?"
After secretly underestimating himself, Jiang Lianqiu's pupils gradually "saw" some bizarre scenes due to the resonance between the power of destiny in his body and the surrounding environment.
——It was a phantom of a bright red figure bathed in blood, roaring "Wryyyyyy", tearing a group of believers in yellow robes into pieces and devouring their hearts.
Chapter 48: I’m the Grandpa that my Senior Sister Calls Me
Coming back to his senses, Jiang Lianqiu turned around and patted Belfast on the shoulder, and said while the latter was stunned:
"Hurry up and invite Jotaro Kujo, and by the way, ban the sale of all steamrollers on the market!"
Belfast: “?”
"Commander?" A big question mark appeared above Belfast's head.
"It's nothing, just think of it as a slip of the tongue." Jiang Lianqiu rubbed his face which was chilled by the cold wind.
I was lamenting before that because of that grandfather of Kasumigaoka who was so weak when he was alive, I’m afraid that even if Dio was rescued this time, he wouldn’t be able to be resurrected. Now I tell him that Dio really showed up.
He is also a Dio who is obviously contaminated by the evil god - it can be imagined that this guy is definitely more fierce than in the original plot.
If you think about it carefully, the stone mask that Dio wore when he first stopped being human came from the Pillar Man to which Kaz belonged.
Judging from the current clues, this Pillar Men Clan, which has been active since before the birth of human civilization, must be related to the yellow-seal coins currently being preserved in the underground base of the Silver Crown Tower.
In other words, the Pillar Men are probably inextricably linked to Hastur. So it is impossible to say that Dio, who is wearing the stone mask made by the Pillar Men, is completely unaffected by the Old One.
What's more, the current Dio was obviously resurrected by a group of lunatics who believed in Hastur.
"Humanity's talent for committing suicide is truly astonishing."
"Dio now has even lost one of his core weaknesses, ultraviolet rays. In other words, he's completely immune to sunlight."
"I just don't know if he's still sane, or if his SAN value has dropped to zero and he's gone crazy."
"But the biggest problem now is that accurate tracking is broken here."
Jiang Lianqiu frowned, finding it hard to understand. How could Dio be so powerful? How could he cut off his pursuit of him out of thin air?
Just as he was puzzled, Feng Neumeow suddenly came to Jiang Lianqiu's side and said solemnly, "Commander, we have found traces of space-time distortion nearby."
"Space-time distortion?" Jiang Lianqiu seemed to have vaguely grasped the blind spot.
"Yes," von Neumeow looked around and said with certainty. "Just a minute before we arrived, this space-time experienced a chaotic space-time distortion. According to the on-site gravitational wave data analysis, our core target left this space-time at that moment—in short, he traveled through time."
Jiang Lianqiu: “…”
No wonder he couldn't find the person, because the person didn't exist in this world anymore.
