Chapter 514 Sneaking into the Castle
In the unique environment of the planet Lorasayo, there is a castle. It is located between two golden lava lakes. This layout not only provides a constant supply of geothermal energy for the space station, but also gives the castle an indestructible symbol. The front of the castle protrudes above the lava like a sword, while the back leads to a safe landing site. This landing site is protected by carefully arranged fences and towering turrets, ensuring that no invaders can easily approach it.
The outer wall of the castle is a solid barrier of defense, densely covered with hundreds of electric mines. When the wind howls on the planet, these electric mines seem to dance with the wind, ruthlessly pushing any enemy who tries to infiltrate into the lava lake below. In addition, the searchlight is like the eyes of the guardian, which can accurately identify any creature trying to enter or leave the ancient prison. And each door is hidden in the wall and is strictly protected by the radiation shield.
The interior of the castle is an intricate maze of countless corridors. These corridors are not only protected by electrified walls, but also equipped with magnetic ceilings and floors, as well as fast-response blast doors, cameras and automatic laser systems. All security equipment is closely monitored by the central control room located at the top of the prison tower.
However, all this was before Ultron intervened. Today, Ultron's "renovation" has given the castle a brand new look. The crazy robots have reinforced and transformed many places, making the original metallic luster more dazzling, adding a more magnificent aura to the castle.
Ultron drones of various sizes hovered around the castle and patrolled the cliffs. However, they did not notice that a tiny interference signal was quietly flying past them and flying to a hidden place in the deepest part of the castle. There, a spear-shaped ship quietly landed on a high ground. A gust of wind blew, and it seemed that something became larger. At this time, a voice came from the speaker: "The interference signal is effective, no signs of discovery."
"We have successfully implemented a loop strategy, and Ultron will not be aware that you entered through this secret passage." Karen explained.
"It's fascinating," said a technician nearby. "When this is over, I hope I'll have more time to study these programs. They are very unusual."
Black Widow simply grinned at the skilled technician in acquiescence.
As the crew members left the spacecraft one after another, an ARC soldier walked out of the spacecraft quickly, his eyes scanning every corner of the spacecraft from left to right.
"I didn't know this ship could be invisible." Lightning's tone was full of surprise.
While everyone was chatting in a relaxed manner, a Jedi Knight came over from outside the crowd, her eyes fixed on the castle in the distance - their target. She was surprised to find that this place was so close to the castle, and the terrible atmosphere that permeated around the castle shocked her. There seemed to be nothing here except the atmosphere of terror and death.
She reached out to feel the force, and it was stronger this time. A distant scream was drowned out by a mechanical sound, followed by a synthetic metallic laugh that sent a chill down her spine.
"Commander, are you okay?"
Barriss Offee blinked and turned to see Bligh looking at her worriedly. She replied sincerely, "Oh, sorry, Bligh. I didn't mean to worry you."
"Kid, what's wrong with you?" a hoarse voice asked.
Barris saw the hunter standing on her other side, "You look really uneasy right now."
Aoife bit her lip, and her body paused for a moment as she looked back at the castle. "This place... it is raging with evil darkness." Aoife whispered. "This is not comparable to the dark side of the Force. This... this is a deeper disaster."
“She’s not wrong,” Aayla Secura’s voice rang out. “There is a strong evil in this place, something I have never encountered since I became a Jedi Knight.”
"You don't need to use the Force to feel it." Ant-Man also joined the discussion. "The atmosphere here gives me goose bumps all over my body."
After a brief silence, Ant-Man suddenly asked, "Hey, what's up with these red lights?"
He noticed a series of red lights flashing around the prison.
They continued to explore and looked deeper into the layout of the castle, discovering that there were many passages crisscrossing each other like a maze.
"This is a damn maze," the Wasp commented unhappily.
"They're just corridors though," Ant-Man said, as he began to draw the rest of the general structure.
"What is going on?" asked the repairman curiously.
"We're mapping out ducts and vents right now with these little guys," Ant-Man said, holding up his hand.
The group looked closely and found several small animals crawling on Ant-Man's fingertips, then flying into the air and heading straight for the prison.
"What are those?" Old Seven asked, squinting his eyes. "They look like bugs."
"Yes, it's bugs." Ant-Man answered affirmatively, "After we found ants that were susceptible to our technology, we began to use them. Now, we are able to achieve our goals by controlling these ants."
The technicians were very excited after hearing this and were looking forward to the technical issues that could realize this function. Everyone felt incredible, as everything before their eyes was beyond their imagination.
Captain America's gaze lingered on Ant-Man and the Wasp for a moment before he said, "Okay, we have to split up and cover more area." Captain America announced decisively. "Ant-Man and the Wasp can shrink their bodies and use the pipes and vents here to reach other places faster than we can. Natasha, you'll be with me. Voss and Delta Squad will be responsible for occupying the lower floors, cleaning them up and placing explosives. Barris, you and Ella and her team will move from the middle position. Your healing ability will give us a glimmer of hope to rescue the prisoners, and maybe give them a chance to breathe on the way."
"What if Ultron finds us?" asked Old Seven doubtfully.
"We'll keep him busy," Captain America replied confidently. "Just think, the commotion created by the six of us will be enough to keep that guy's attention focused on us."
"This is a gift to Ultron." Black Widow shrugged. "Now, let's get started."
The group entered from the side entrance, which had collapsed into ruins due to the accumulation of rubble. However, after Barris, Ella and Voss worked together to clean up, the door has been reopened.
