Chapter 1578 (1/2)
Without the two high-level Protoss, the remaining rookies could not even play 30% of their combat effectiveness in this state of total invisibility. They were all quickly flattened under the joint attack of me and my demons.
After killing the rest of the protoss, I throw all the corpses to Lilith for phagocytosis evolution. Although the more Protoss of the same kind eat, the worse the effect is, but anyway, the corpse is not very useful. It's still good to give Lilith some waste.
After recovering all the remaining evil fog, I set the gate of the earth on the lake, and then summoned the little dragon girl and said, ”can you move all the water in this lake into the lake of mother earth?”
The gate of the earth connects the back garden of the mother earth, but this so-called garden is actually a piece of land with a considerable area. In the middle of this area, there is a very wide lake. If we pump the water from the lake in front of us to the lake in the garden of mother earth, the water level of the lake will rise by one or two meters at most. This will not have a great impact on the surrounding environment. I think Mother Earth will not mind. Even if she's really unhappy, I'll find a place to pour the water out.
When Xiao Longnu heard my request, she observed the area of the lake, and then said, ”it should be OK, but the area of this lake is relatively large. It may take some time.”
”How long will it take?”
”It may take three to four hours to completely drain, but you just want to salvage the treasure under it. You don't have to drain all of it. It will take about two or three hours to finish the job.”
”Then work quickly.”
”OK.” After confirming the order, the little dragon girl flew to the lake, and then reached for the water. A dense layer of white fog appeared on the whole lake instantly. Then the white fog began to roll and gush into the gate of the earth as if it were alive. Finally, all of them floated into the lake of mother earth and turned into water again and landed in the lake.
On the surface, this transformation speed is not very fast, but in fact it is quite terrible. XiaoLongNu used this method to help me fight against the enemy's fire magic before. At that time, she drained a small lake. It can be seen that the speed is still very fast.
In fact, there are some of my favorites that pump faster, but I don't want to take that risk. Ling's dimensional space magic is a small black hole. The water absorption speed of that thing is absolutely exaggerated. As long as it is sunk to the bottom of the lake, it will take less than half an hour to drain the whole lake. But that method is too violent, and the black hole can't be controlled at all. That is to say, it sucks everything. When the water is drained, the baby goes in with him. Aren't we busy in vain?
In the process of Xiaolongnv pumping water, we were not idle. I sent out all my magic pets who can dive. They will be responsible for collecting some treasures in the water ahead of time. Anyway, although XiaoLongNu's pumping method is very fast, it is very gentle. Even if someone is in the lake, there will be no danger. Moreover, starting to collect in advance can improve the efficiency. Otherwise, we can't stand there in a daze during the two or three hours of XiaoLongNu's pumping?
Everything seemed to be going well, but after pumping for a few minutes, it was suddenly stopped.
”Stop. Stop it
”What's going on?” Looking at all stop the magic pet, I am very confused to ask ADINA.
ADINA pointed to a direction and said, ”just now when I was searching for the specific sinking range of the treasure, I found that there were two big holes connecting with other water sources on the other side of the lake. According to the principle of connecting pipes, if we pump water here, the water from the other two sides will automatically supplement to this side, so we will not only pump the water from this lake. We don't know exactly how much more water there is there. If there is more water there, won't we be able to pump out forever? ”
”What? Is there another passage under the water? ”
”Yes. There are two big openings. ”
Little dragon girl suddenly realized: ”I said how to smoke for half a day, did not see the water level drop! If there is a large area of water over there, I can't do it. Even if my magic power can hold, I don't care about the time. The lake of mother earth can't hold too much water! If only this lake is drained, the lake over there will be filled up. If we pump again, mother earth's back garden will become a swamp! ”
”What shall we do?” Luck asked, ”can't you block up the hole?”
”No way.” Ling said: ”the water in the lake is warm, which means that there are lava pipes passing by nearby. If we block the water flow channel, the pressure balance here will be changed. If the lava pipe breaks and the whole place will be flooded, it will be bad. It's OK to fish in water, but it's not easy to fish in lava. Even if Xiaofeng and his friends are not afraid of lava, the luminous property of the lava is almost zero. If you want to find the treasure in that kind of thing, you can only touch it by hand. It is estimated that the lava will cool down before we can get the things out of such a large area! ”
”You can't smoke, you can't block. What do you do?” Xiao Longnu asked.
Ling thought for a while and said, ”no matter what to do, we must first figure out where the two channels are connected. If there is not much water on the opposite side, it is not impossible for us to spend more time draining it. If there's a lot of water, we'll think of something else. ””Yes, anyway, go and see what's going on.” I want to understand the key, and immediately said to XiaoLongNu: ”you don't pump water, help everyone to fish together. ADINA, you and I will find out what's going on in the two passages. The others are on shore. ”
”Yes.”
After the assignment, I pulled down the mask on my helmet and jumped into the lake. ADINA followed me into the water, then turned her legs back into fish tails and flashed past me. Although the ability to move on the land is not very outstanding, but after the water will be completely reversed, except little dragon girl, few of my favorite can catch up with her in the water.
Looking at ADINA has surpassed the past, I also opened my wings to stir up. Although my wings were not designed for swimming, the mechanical structure of water and air is basically the same, so I can use wings to propel in water, but the efficiency is not very high. Of course, compared with human hands and feet, that good thing is much better. At least the wings are big enough.
After catching up with ADINA, we swam towards one of the passageways. According to ADINA, the two passageways she found were not all bad, because one was filling the lake with water, and the other was pumping water from the lake. Therefore, as long as we can find a way to get the inlet with water flowing in, the outlet side will not affect our pumping work, but will speed up our pumping speed. However, it can't be said that it must be a good thing, because the water outlet is not necessarily because the water area connected by the pipeline is lower than this side, but also because the pressure of the other water inlet is too high, which leads to the forced water injection from the lake to the higher pipeline on the other side. If that is the case, once we close the water inlet, the original outlet will be backfilled, which means that both of them are inlets.
While considering the way to block the channel, ADINA and I sneaked into the channel.
The width of this passage is relatively large. The entrance is seven or eight meters in diameter. At the beginning, ADINA regarded the entrance as a pit at the bottom of the lake because of its large entrance. However, only the entrance is really wide. With our deepening, the internal passage will become narrower and narrower. After diving about 10 meters down the passage in a nearly vertical manner, the diameter of the passage has changed from eight meters at the beginning to less than two meters now, but the width is quite large for us. Anyway, with our body shape, as long as the diameter is not less than one meter, it can be easily passed.
After falling five or six meters, the passage began to change from vertical to horizontal, and in the process of turning, the channel continued to shrink. When the channel completely changed, it was only about one meter wide after a horizontal direction, and some parts of it were less than one meter wide. What's more, I had to cut off some protruding parts of rocks to climb past times. But fortunately, although the channel ahead has always been so narrow, it has not continued to shrink, and after climbing through a narrow area of more than 20 meters, the channel began to widen gradually.
