226 Rushing Down (1/2)

Shoooosh~

A giant white mecha can be seen leaving a long white streak from the massive cross-shaped Guardianship.

The mecha's body closely resembled a human body except for its six jet boosters that sprouted from his back. Two big bracers can be seen in both its hands while it dived down towards the massive hole that leads to the land of Tunga.

Piloting the massive Mech is the expert Arkhan warrior Arkhoz. His eyes glowed with utmost focus as he watched the expanding hole relayed through the crystal glass before him.

”We are about to enter the hole in ten seconds. Prepare for the encounter.” Arkhoz calmly declared.

”yes!” Danna, Katri, and the golden beaked Eagle replied simultaneously.

The four of them are currently placed in a division inside a crystal sphere. This unbreakable crystal sphere is made by the Guardians and has been securely planted in the middle of the Mecha's chest.

The sole controller of the entire mech is the team's captain, Arkhoz; while the rest are there for a different purpose later on. The location of the massive hole is in the middle of Northpole, far from the civilization and human reach, thus there was not a single Shadow present.

”Now remember, not a single word when we get inside.” reminded Arkhoz. It was an instruction that was learned from the recorded journey of Kaora.

”Understood.”

”Yes.”

”Yeah...”

The three swiftly replied.

Just when they were about to reach the massive hole entrance, Arkhoz immediately activated the mech's stealth ability, instantly hiding their presence from the naked eyes. At the same time, the whole team suddenly plunged to an eerie silence.

Whiiiish~

The mech is equipped with anti-gravity function, the moment they went in, the jet boosters that were furiously spewing white steam at the back quickly retracted. Slowly, the massive robot's figure blended in the dark.

”Heuk!~” the scared fairy almost burst into a shout. Her eyes are currently watching the countless holes scattered throughout the walls of the vast hole. Although they are currently invisible, on their side, everything looked like it was a day thanks to the Guardian's advance design.

The crystal window that covered them allowed them to see everything outside as if it was a day. Unfortunately for the little fairy, she would rather not see what she is witnessing at the moment.

The holes on the frozen wall were about twenty meters in diameter while carefully hiding from inside, everyone could see a worm-like creature that looked like a white snake that is seemingly prepared to ambush them.

Their eyes glowed like a yellow bulb while a sound-sensitive thorn can be seen at the top of their heads.

It seems like the previous disturbance of the shattered ice covering has made these creatures aware of the existence of the intruders and made them hide to these holes.

”Wheew.. huek?!.” sighed the little fairy before she noticed the eagle and Arkhoz's hostile gaze and quickly bowed to say sorry. The faint sound she made have just made everyone wary. She was also thankful that the crystal sphere was soundproof.

Fortunately, the memories from the last adventure of Kaora has warned them about these creatures. It was also the reason why the Guardians, who designed this advance mech, have made plenty of preparations just for these days.

Thanks to the mech's stealth ability and silence, they were able to avoid the attacks of the wall snakes and safely moved deeper.

Time flows by and it has been five hours since they entered the hole. The longer they traveled, they could not help but feel sleepy from the cold and breezy silence. However, what made them stay on alert are the bigger holes and creatures inside the deeper they go.

They were really fortunate that they have come prepared.

Another hour later, the mech have finally traveled about 10000 meters below the earth's frozen surface when the ice wall suddenly started shaking. The holographic data that was moving before Arkhoz warned them of a certain energy fluctuation coming from below.

The sound of the vibration was increasing with each passing seconds as if an unknown train is coming from below!

Everyone's gaze quickly followed the source of the sound and immediately got confused.

”That....”

”Ice...cap?”

QUIAAA!~

What they saw was a rushing mountain of white ice that seems to be coming from below. It's the sheer speed and compactness obviously meant that they would be pushed back to the outside or worst, the mech would crumble upon impact.

It was like a geyser of solid ice!

Arkhoz quickly calculated the situation and judged that the mech will crumble upon impact.

”Stay silent. We can't afford to go back.”

”What should we do?~”

”Shall we go back?~”

QUIAAA!~

The incoming geyser of ice was coming at a tremendous force and speed, Arkhoz did not bother answering their questions as he maneuvered the mech to hide into one of the holes in the wall where the white giant worms are staying.

Upon seeing Arkhoz's action, the eagle quickly panicked, ”Wait! What are you doing in this pla-”

”Silence or we are gonna die!” Arkhoz shouted to the shaking brown bird.

The little fairy on the side was just barely maintaining her sanity while blocking her mouth with her own hands.

SHOOOOOOOOOOSHHHH!~
