Chapter 279 She Was Reluctant to Let Her Beastly Husband Take Risks
Jin Caisi asked subconsciously. Bai Susu's brows furrowed, her eyes sharp and powerful. She growled, "We came here to rescue the orcs in your Beast City. As the Young City Lord, you naturally have to contribute more and endure danger for your people. How could you let my Beast Husband take such a risk?"
She was unwilling to let her beast husband take risks. They were only forced to cooperate and come here to help. They would have to leave afterwards. Those orcs had nothing to do with them. She was not stupid. Why would she risk her life for orcs who had nothing to do with her?
At the same time, she was reluctant to let her beastly husband take risks.
Jin Cais couldn't refute, so he followed Bai Susu's words, went to the center of the formation, and injected power into it. Then the formation resonated with Jin Cais's power. A hurricane blew up from nowhere, and sand and stones flew up and hit Bai Susu's cheek, causing pain.
Everything before her made Bai Susu feel her own insignificance, and she couldn't help but sigh: "This formation is really powerful. The Beast God actually has such ability."
System: [The Beast God is from another time and space. Her civilization is clearly superior to ours. With such advanced technology and power, it's not surprising that she created these elemental formations.]
[This system just can't figure out why the Beast God hid this Concentrating Mirror here and created so many formations.]
Bai Susu shook her head. She didn't understand any of this. She stared at Jin Cais's back in the formation, but her mind was thinking about other things.
I still remember that the system had said before that the Beast God from hundreds of years ago was a girl from another world. I didn't expect that she would leave so many powerful things here.
According to the system, the Beast God is the first time traveler to come here, and she is the second modern person to come here. According to this trend, will there be more time travelers coming here in the future?
Thinking of this, she immediately asked the system, and the system replied: [It is possible, but it may be decades or hundreds of years later. The time is uncertain.]
After hearing what the system said, Bai Susu sighed. She couldn't go back anyway. She didn't know if she would have the chance to meet other travelers in this beast world.
Suddenly, there was a shaking under her feet, pulling Bai Susu back to reality. She saw that Jin Cais's power resonated with the elements in the formation, and the whole courtyard was filled with golden light.
Then, the soil beneath them shook, the ground in the yard cracked, and all the stone houses in the yard collapsed. All the soil sank into the cracks and collapsed in an instant.
The soil under Bai Susu's feet became loose, and she lost her balance and almost fell into the crack.
"Su Su!" Mei Wuzhi held Bai Su Su in his arms, with vines wrapped around his waist. Behind him, Cang Xiao used the power of the wood element to control the vines to tie them up, and used the power of the vines to lift them into the air to protect them.
Cang Xiao stood on the mud stake that Jin Kais had made with his supernatural power, and they supported each other to stabilize their bodies.
[Host, this restriction has been broken.]
Bai Susu's mind rang with these words, and she looked down in shock, only to see that the ground in the yard had sunken down to a depth of about twenty meters, revealing a ground paved with blue bricks. There were many iron boxes around, and she didn't know what was inside them.
I didn’t expect that there would be such a scene in the basement of this courtyard.
"What is that?" Jin Cais pointed to a place in the collapse, and his expression changed constantly. Bai Susu followed the direction he pointed and saw a glass box in the center of the ground containing a beautiful bronze mirror. The mirror was covered with black mist, and some elemental power was faintly visible above it.
"That's the Mind Concentrating Mirror we're looking for." Bai Susu saw the bronze mirror and, after the system's prompt, knew what it was. A glimmer of light appeared in her eyes: "Let's find a way to go down and take this Mind Concentrating Mirror away."
She steadied herself and observed the surrounding terrain. Just as she was about to descend, Mei Wuzhi grabbed her and said, "Susu, wait a minute. Look at what that is."
Bai Susu looked in the direction he pointed, and saw that the iron boxes around the mind-gathering mirror moved, and five half-human-high machines emerged from them... dogs?
Why are there still these things?
Seeing these high-tech things, Bai Susu felt both familiar and scared. These robot dogs were staring at them, their bodies were stretching out, and every movement made a sound of iron colliding.
[Host, you have broken the forbidden formation and triggered the protective mechanism. These were left by the Beast God to guard this Concentrating Mirror.]
[Now that they have awakened, this system has detected that their attack power is extremely strong. Even the Five-Striped Beasts are no match for these technological forces. Host, be careful.]
Bai Susu turned around and warned, "Back off! Find a place to hide!"
Jin Caisi was stunned when he saw this scene. "We've lived in Beast City for so many years, and we didn't know it was like this down there. What are those things? How could they move when they're not alive?"
After hearing Jin Caisi's words, the system couldn't help but grumble: "That's because a protective formation has been set up. Besides, who would bother digging up the ground for so long? Naturally, they haven't discovered these things in all these years."
Jin Caisi couldn't hear the system's complaints. Cang Xiao pulled him back: "What are you standing there for! Didn't you hear Su Su say to retreat?"
As soon as the words fell, the robot dogs' eyes lit up, and various elemental powers emerged from their bodies. Then they heard an electronic sound.
【Anyone who intrudes will be killed.】
The robot dogs fired lasers from their eyes, and Bai Susu and the beast husbands quickly dodged. The lasers hit a wall, and the wall suddenly turned black.
The two beastmen had never seen anything like this. Mei Wuzhi looked at Jin Caisi and asked, "What is this thing? This thing isn't alive, how can it be so powerful?"
Jin Kesi also looked puzzled: "I don't know either. I don't see any mention of these things on the murals."
Bai Susu explained, "Those iron creatures are called robot dogs. They were left behind by the Beast God to protect the Mind Concentrating Mirror. They're very dangerous, so be careful."
[Host, these machines have been buried underground for many years and their power has been greatly depleted. They will not last long. We just need to wait until their power is exhausted.
At that time, the host can take them for his own use, and this system will modify the program for the host. 】
Bai Susu: Is this possible?
System: [Of course, but even if these machines lose a lot of power, the power remaining in the body is still very strong. The host must hold on until then.]
Bai Susu hid behind a wall and looked in the direction of the robot dogs. They were scanning lasers while looking for a place to climb up.
Jin Caisi stood up and was about to jump: "This is not a solution. I'm going to find a way to destroy them."
Upon hearing this, Bai Susu quickly pulled him behind a rock to hide, holding him tightly: "These machines are very powerful. Before their power is exhausted, you will be shot into a hornet's nest as soon as you show your head.
They have just awakened and are at their strongest now. We cannot confront them head-on."
Jin Cais: "Now that we have that, let's find a way to deplete their power."
He waved his hand to control the soil below and wanted to attack the machines, but he was discovered as soon as he showed his head, and the machines fired towards him.
Jin Cais quickly used his special powers, and spikes rose up one by one, blocking the machines and trapping them underneath.
Even so, Bai Susu could still feel the firepower concentrated on them. The huge rock behind him was swept by the laser and the gravel flew out.
Bai Susu and the beastly husbands changed several places to hide, and each time their hiding places were found accurately.
Bai Susu: "How come these machines can always find our hiding places so accurately?"
