Everyone spent a few hours resting, and felt good about the place where they were. Not only was the air circulating, but there were no monsters to harass them, so everyone was able to have enough time to rest and prepare all the supplies. Well, that includes fully charging the battery.
Of course, Terra also further counted the ammunition on all the mercenaries. Now as the number of people decreases, the amount of ammunition carried also decreases. If there are several more incidents with a large number of monsters, then all the The mercenaries may have to use their swords and gestures to fight the monsters.
The gate of Jinshanzi looks very magnificent, but opening it is very simple.
Originally, Tina thought that this Jinshanzi gate would be another difficulty, or that this gate had various mechanisms, and it might cost a few people to open it.
But what she didn't expect was that opening this door was very simple. The key she used to open the entrance to the underground passage before entering this underground space was also the thing that Chen Mo had been thinking about.
At this gate, between the two door leaves, there is a statue of Buddha. The statue's hands are placed on top of its head in a dancing posture. There is a depression on its hand, which is the same shape as a key.
After Tina saw this, she used her mental power to investigate, then took out the jade she carried with her and put it directly into the depression.
After Tina put it in, she heard a sound: "click!"
Then, the two door leaves slowly opened inward, and the jade key in the Buddha's hand popped out halfway from the recessed place. Tina stepped forward to take it off and put it directly into her pocket. Chen Mo looked on with envy. I really want to get this key in my hands and study it carefully, but I am not in a hurry now. Anyway, I will definitely get this thing when the time comes, and I will study it when the time comes.
After opening the passage door, the entire passage was still dark, but the smell of the air that came out had a faint feeling of freshness. It was not the smell that had been dusty for a long time, but it was mixed with the smell of blood, which made everyone smell it. It was a frown.
The fresh air is nothing, which means there is air circulation in the place where you wait to enter. The smell of blood means that there is fresh blood smelling inside, so where does this smell of blood come from? Naturally, you need to think about it carefully!
"Captain Tina, although this fishy smell is very light, it is faintly pungent. It seems that this bloody smell should be fresh. But this place has been around for almost a thousand years, how can there be such fresh bloody smell? Are you angry?" Yam asked.
Tina shook her head and said: "No one will know what's going on before seeing the monster! We have to go in here, so talking too much will make everyone worried."
After hearing Tina's words, Yam shut up and stopped talking. Anyway, the leader is Tina, so just follow the instructions.
"Everyone, check your equipment and personal belongings, then follow the formation you came in and prepare to move forward!" Tina turned her head and shouted to everyone.
"Tela, be careful when leading the team forward and don't be careless." Tina specifically explained.
She was slightly worried about the smell of blood, so she specifically told Terra to be careful.
"Yes, Ms. Tina!" Terra replied.
Waving his hand, the mercenaries began to move forward. This time, after a break, William led the team forward, but Terra was worried, so he entered with William one after another. Behind him were the team members led by William, including the soy sauce Chen Mo. .
After entering the entire cave, it is different from the cave before. Because the caves here gradually lose their artificial traces, they are all traces of nature, much like walking in a cave in karst terrain.
Fortunately, although the cave here is large, it is still a passage, and the ground is relatively flat. It seems that the ground has been filled in, using some gravel or large long stones. Except for the road under your feet, the surrounding areas and the top of your head are all natural landforms.
As we advance, the tunnels also change in different ways. Sometimes the tunnels are larger, sometimes they are smaller, and the overall feeling is that they are diagonally downward.
It took more than two hours to walk through this kind of cave. Gradually everyone became impatient. Who knows where this kind of hole leads to.
However, even though they had been marching forward for so long, the faint smell of blood still lingered between their breaths, as if this bloody smell permeated the entire passage.
The entire team was silent now, only the rustling sound of footsteps advancing could be heard. When everyone first entered here, they would comment and talk about the environment here, the shapes on the cave, etc. As time went by, everyone no longer wanted to chat.
At this moment, William, who was walking at the front, suddenly stopped.
"William, what's wrong?" When Terra first entered, she was with William. But after finding that there was no danger, he returned to the group behind.
In this way, a replacement can be formed with William, and the two groups of people advance alternately. If you keep alert and move forward for a long time, you will be very tired. Not just physically, but mentally too! Therefore, the mercenaries need to rotate forward, with one group following behind and one group moving forward to explore the path.
The two groups of Terra and William have alternated rotations twice, and now William is in the front, while Terra leads the team in the rear.
So when he saw the team stopped, Terra quickly asked. There is still some distance between the two groups, mainly to prevent any sudden attacks, so that the latter group can react and prepare in time.
"T-Tela, come and take a look!" William's voice was trembling in the throat microphone, mixed with a little bit of excitement.
Um? Terra was a little surprised for a moment, what happened to William to have such a tone. But Terra didn't suspect anything. Instead, after hearing William's words, she led the team forward to see what happened.
Unexpectedly, Terra followed William's finger and suddenly fell into a daze.
At this moment, the entire team stopped. As long as the mercenary team in front stopped, the team of superpowers behind would also stop.
"Tela, what happened?" Tina asked a little strangely when she saw the mercenaries stopped and Terra led the team forward, but there was no reply for a long time.
"Ms. Tina! Come and take a look!" Tela's voice was also trembling, and she spoke quickly to Tina through the intercom system.
Tina frowned, then signaled to Yam and others, asking them to lead the team here and wait for the next order, and then she walked forward.
"Tela, what happened?" Tina asked strangely when she saw all the mercenaries standing there without saying a word.
"Ms. Tina, bright light, bright light! Look where you are, there is light!" Terra said excitedly.
I have been in the underground space for several days, except for the lighting on my head, which is the light from the fluorescent stick in my hand. Other times, everywhere you look is darkness, which makes everyone very uncomfortable.
Human beings still like to live in places with light. If there is no light and it is just darkness, the mood will be particularly depressing. At this moment, in front of where Terra was pointing, there was a small bright dot, emitting a charming light.
When Tina just came over, she didn't see it because the bright little dot was too small, which also showed that the light spot should be still some distance away from everyone.
But after seeing it now, she felt very shocked and excited. Because both Terra and herself actually like to have light, rather than darkness in front of them.
Immediately, Yam and others also knew about the light, and walked up, looking ahead, feeling excited.
"Captain Tina, since there is light ahead, shouldn't it lead to the ground somewhere?" Yam asked.
But Tina shook her head and said: "I don't know this, and there is no such description in my parchment. On the parchment, here is just a circle, and except for a naga, It’s just a sentence. Whether it’s the ground or not, we need to go somewhere to understand.”
"Yes!" Yam nodded.
However, the conversation between Tina, Yam and others did not affect others. Everyone was really miserable in this underground space, so they were very excited when they saw the light.
"Tella, William, you two continue to lead the team forward, and we will walk over to see what kind of place it is that can have light." Tina said.
"Yes!" Terra and William agreed, then started to form the team and set off.
Chen Mo, who was in the team, curled his lips a little. Because he fundamentally didn't believe that there was light from the ground ahead. Because since he came to the underground space, he felt that his progress was always going diagonally downwards, and there was no feeling of going upwards.
Besides, if there is light in the underground space, it is actually simple. There are many self-luminous plants, self-luminous ores, or self-luminous animals, etc.
The light in front could remain stable. Chen Mo judged that it might be the light emitted by the ore, or the light emitted by the plants.
Although he has never seen any minerals or plants that can emit such a bright light, nature is magical, and there may be something he doesn't know!
Just like himself, he had never believed in extraordinary beings before, but after practicing cultivation, he discovered that extraordinary beings were around him. Many things in the world may have secrets.
Because there was light ahead, everyone's pace unnaturally accelerated, and even the mercenaries' alertness gradually decreased with the light.
