Capítulo 3466: Chapter 3458: Underground Secret Realm
There were no objections from the other teams regarding Lin Yi’s arrangent.
If not for them, who intercepted Mammon’s reinforcents, the ones lying on the ground would be ourselves.
And within the entire Central Guards Brigade, instinctively, they believed that apart from their own leader, only Team Leader Lin could command them.
Lin Yi led his team underwater first.
The water surface was not too deep, approximately five ters.
For the Central Guards Brigade, there was no difficulty at all.
Upon reaching underwater, they quickly discovered the underwater passage.
The structure was sowhat like a cent pre-embedded item, yet not entirely.
Lin Yi instinctively believed it was left by predecessors.
But the people of that era being able to create such things is truly astonishing.
Following the underwater passage, Lin Yi crawled in first.
Once inside, there was a clear feeling that the pathway was leading upwards.
This effectively prevented river water from backflooding.
A few minutes later, Lin Yi erged from the water, surrounded by darkness.
Without light reflection, Lin Yi’s night vision was greatly affected.
Switching on the spotlight revealed a sealed space built with earthen bricks.
The walls bore many indecipherable words, about 30 square ters.
After Lin Yi climbed up, others followed suit one after another.
With over thirty people, it was slightly cramped.
The only way out here was the underground passage ahead.
Made into stairs, it extended in an unknown direction.
Adjusting his earpiece, Lin Yi whispered:
“Attention, can everyone hear ?”
Quickly, each team responded to Lin Yi.
“Every five minutes, each team must send feedback signals, do not interrupt communications.”
“Understood.”
After assigning tasks, Lin Yi focused on what was ahead.
“Team Leader Ning and I will be at the front, others follow behind, with Team Leader Qiu and Group Leader Tao at the rear.”
There were no objections to Lin Yi’s arrangent.
At this mont, no opposing voices are permitted because there’s no ti to discuss these things, all ti must be utilized.
Weapons in hand, the group proceeded down the stairs.
Compared to the island, there were major differences here.
There were strong signs of life; one could even see so items used for eating and daily living.
“We’re not experiencing breathing difficulties here, does that an there’s another exit allowing air to backflow?”
“Not likely,” Lin Yi said:
“We’ve searched all around, no clues found; even if there is, it might not be near.”
Lin Yi pointed his flashlight ahead.
“If there truly is another entrance, it would be far away, hard to reach here.”
“Then where is the oxygen we’re breathing here coming from?”
“I’m pondering this too, anyhow, as there’s no abnormal situation now, let’s look inside first.”
Following Lin Yi’s advice, the group hastened their pace.
The stairs kept extending downward, Lin Yi estimated about ten ters, the approximate height of three floors.
Soon, the group reached the end of the stairs, where a vast area lay beneath, as large as a basketball court.
All sorts of things were arranged here, many quite odd.
They didn’t seem to be necessities of life.
“Bath ore!”
Xiao Bing exclaid, everyone turned towards her voice.
They saw several blocks as big as a human head.
It resolved the questions in their minds; it was due to these ores they could breathe here.
This confird the previous inference, people indeed living here were natives.
“Lin Bro, our earlier hypothesis seems inaccurate,” Xiao Bing said:
“With Bath ore, they no longer need to create high-oxygen environnts.”
“Not necessarily,” Lin Yi said:
“Having Bath ore only ets their daily needs but for large-scale activity, these Bath ores are far from sufficient.”
Others didn’t quite understand the conversation within Lin Yi’s group, they just listened quietly.
“Yet having the ability to transport ore here suggests they aren’t the lowest among natives; claiming they lack expansion intent, I don’t believe,” Lin Yi remarked:
“If they truly wished to live peacefully, the island of Tilia Island is entirely ample.”
“So that’s how it is.”
“It’s not ti to discuss these now, let’s see if there’s anything useful here for us.”
“Understood.”
Following Lin Yi’s orders, all four teams sprang into action.
Lin Yi scanned the surroundings, finding eight skeletal remains.
Upon closer examination, he noted sothing amiss.
These people’s bones were evidently sturdier than normal humans, and their size much longer.
By deducing from the bone shapes, these people were at least between two ters ten to two ters twenty in height.
This scene plunged Lin Yi into deep thought.
Previously inside the island ruins, they also found native corpses.
However, their statures were commonly small, rely between one ter fifty to one ter sixty, seeming hardly the sa human race.
Now, what’s certain is that this place is where natives lived, yet the race is completely different.
Suddenly!
Lin Yi’s expression changed as if he thought of sothing.
The existence of Death Hill dates back 2600 years.
Which ans these people lived around 2600 years ago.
Whereas people discovered in those ruins, their exact ages couldn’t be deduced yet, only guessed vaguely.
But clearly ages exceed 2600 years.
How much ti lies in between remains unknown.
There’s the possibility these people experienced body changes during this period.
Lin Yi frowned, considering biological views.
Significant biological changes during reproduction can only occur in oxygen-rich circumstances.
Yet the current situation hardly ets those requirents.
Could they have been experinting on their own bodies?
This thought made Lin Yi shudder.
“Look here.”
At this mont, Qiu Yuluo’s call drew others near.
The group gathered before a wall, which depicted a creature resembling a beast.
It had a bird-like head and wings, along with a long tail.
At first glance, it looked like a mythical Phoenix, yet upon closer inspection, differed greatly due to nurous legs growing on its body, appearing majestic yet bizarre.
“Logically speaking, this seems like their totem.”
The group lingered montarily without discovering anything useful, then departed.
“Boss, there’s a new discovery.”
Upon hearing Shao Jianfeng’s voice, Lin Yi jogged towards him.
Before him was a black jar.
Inside was a black viscous substance emitting a mild stench.
This plunged everyone into contemplation.
