Ma Hou definitely didn't want more people to see his embarrassed posture, but contrary to expectations, the purely luck-based search work had just begun, and the vast majority of people were still wandering aimlessly without a particularly clear direction. At this time, a small change or accident can easily attract people's attention.
At the same time, as Jing Xin said, treasure collectors and inspectors have completely different thinking. As the designers behind the scenes, the Amaterasu Order’s way of thinking is closer to that of inspectors, so sharing information and increasing efficiency are important. It became the only choice.
From the horse monkey's pursuit of the black mist and its humiliating failure to the discovery of a geothermal fountain rising up, the whole process took about half an hour. It took even less time to attract others. In less than 20 minutes, the vast majority of participants gathered around the newly discovered geothermal mud area. To be precise, except for the priest Anthony and the welfare director Wan Ta, everyone else has arrived to study the latest discoveries together, and of course, to get rid of the black mist that the fat dragon has driven to nowhere.
So many people came here, and as the "first discoverer", Ma Hou always had to give a reason. At this time, concealment is not enough, and telling everything is the behavior of a fool. After discussing with Jing Xin and others, Ma Hou stated his old grievances with Hei Wu expressionlessly, and briefly described the pursuit and subsequent analysis and tracking, completing the relevant logical chain.
Of course, some hidden meanings need to be discovered by smart people. The most indispensable thing present is smart people. Gardner’s eyes were fixed on Mahou’s face, and he did not hide his joking meaning at all: “It sounds like you drove away the black mist, and then discovered that he was trying to hide it. This place. But looking at your current appearance, brother, it is more like a victory transfer... Also, although I am not good at perception, the abyss area seemed to be very lively just now. Brother Mahou, Heiwu, Who else is coming?"
Gardner looked at the fat dragon on one side again, who also stared at him expressionlessly. The two people's eyes collided. Even though Gardner was a sturdy man, compared to the huge fat dragon, he was still an order of magnitude behind, also in terms of strength.
Gardner looked unruly on the outside, but in fact he had his own concerns. He never wanted to fight against Fat Dragon, the top level among B-level powerhouses, and suffer a loss. He laughed and waved his hand: "Everyone knows what's going on with Brother Fat Dragon. , one or two more people from your Amaterasu sect won’t scare anyone to death, so why bother covering it up? Besides, it’s not a good habit to neglect public affairs for personal reasons..."
Feilong always looked numb and stiff, while Mahou's face turned blue and red, and turned red and blue, changing back and forth seven or eight times, but in the end he still gritted his teeth and remained silent.
At this time, the Horned Demon stood up at the right time and presided over the mediation in a decent manner: "I said, this is an uncertain opportunity and a kind of gamble. Which side wants to increase the probability and multiple of the harvest by increasing investment? , I don’t mind and welcome it very much. Of course, I also hope that the behavior of opening trumpet accounts can be reduced to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings.
"But then again, compared to Brother Fei Long and you guys playing the trumpet, I'm more dissatisfied with Mr. Kurogiri who 'slipped'. Everyone has paid the price, and none of us want the opportunity to fail, so I Only then did we put forward the concept of 'sharing'. Only when we have the treasure in our hands can we talk about distribution. In fact, the word 'distribution' is almost meaningless in Luo Yuandao's laboratory. It is indeed a sum of money. Huge wealth, but to dig a piece from the treasure mountain, you still need enough knowledge, insight, and enough luck-in this context, cooperation and sharing are even more important.
"I have emphasized this point many times, but that narrow-minded guy in the black mist still regards this operation as a crude and low-level treasure hunt. He clearly stated that he wanted to withdraw, but in fact he was under the guise of I want to keep everything for myself. So, that guy has offended me, and if he dares to show up again, I will stand by your side, Mr. Mahou."
The Horned Demon openly and honestly unified its position with Ma Hou and Fei Long, which did not make anyone suspicious. After all, any decision made by this lunatic Horned Demon was not a surprise. Similarly, no matter who he stands with, not only his enemies, but also his teammates will feel uncomfortable.
Gardner responded with a smile: "I don't mind helping to kill a cheapskate, but I would rather have reliable and useful information. What I am more interested in now is, what did the guy from Black Mist find? Who can Give me a definite answer?"
"Currently it looks like a geothermal hot spring."
While several people were going back and forth to express their positions, Hua Dian had already walked around Mutu several times. At this time, he analyzed casually: "The plateau area north of the Himalayas has always been an area rich in geothermal energy. A geothermal hot spring has appeared here. , Mud coating is not a strange thing. I checked the topographic map and found that there is an underground waterway nearby, which is connected to a surface saltwater lake dozens of kilometers away."
Gardner laughed again when he heard this: "Oh, it seems that you are lucky, Mahou. If you had stomped harder before, you might have penetrated the magma chamber below. It feels so sour. …”
Mahou glared at Gardner, really understanding this guy's foul mouth.
Compared to Gardner, who was obsessed with taking advantage of others, Hua Dian, as a detective, was interested in the surrounding environment of the geothermal hot spring mud and the traces left behind.
"There is still some distance between the groundwater layer and the surface. The heat pipes in the magma chamber do not seem to be enough to create a huge water pressure to cause it to spurt out. In comparison, Mr. Mahou's stomping seems even more insignificant. So I think, Between the two stimulating elements of the magma chamber and stomping feet, there should be a stimulating force, which is still at work even now...but we are so close, but we can't detect it yet."
Seeing someone get to the point, Jingxin immediately raised his hand in agreement: "I have never been to the Deep Blue World, and I don't know how planes affect the structure of time and space. However, the current mechanism of action is also something I have never heard of or seen, so I think I would like to ask Mr. Horned Demon, is it possible that the portal of Luo Yuandao's laboratory can be moved below the surface? Just like the portal of the Deep Blue World, which itself is located on the seabed 10,000 meters deep?"
The Horned Demon frowned. He was really not sure about this: "The laboratory portal I saw was itself pulled by a special instrument. So even if it moves, it is subject to certain restrictions. Now all the instruments have been removed , I don’t know if the portal will sink directly into the ground. The strata tens or hundreds of meters deep seem to have no meaning for the huge space-time structure."
"Then what is your conclusion?" Gardner clapped his hands. "This is a clue that requires further exploration. Then we have to go under this mud and have an underground adventure?"
