Capítulo 3467: Chapter 3459: Dominion
“Damn.”
For no reason, Lin Yi cursed, leaving the others bewildered.
“What happened?” Ning Che looked at him.
“If this thing’s got radiation, we’re all done for.”
Hearing this, the four teams’ faces turned green.
“Dying from radiation would be such a lousy way to go.”
Lin Yi took out the dagger and stabbed inside a few tis.
He found the consistency to be quite thick.
Using the dagger, he lifted out a bit and found it had no sll.
“This stuff looks a bit like oil,” Xiao Bing said.
“Not ordinary oil, more like ultra-heavy oil. After so long, it beca like this,” Shao Jianfeng said.
“If this really is oil, that’s interesting,” Tao Cheng laughed and said, “We should take it back and have a look.”
Lin Yi adjusted the communicator, “Team One, can you hear ?”
“We can hear you,” Yu Siying responded.
“Bring so sealed boxes over; there’s sothing here to be transported out.”
“Understood.”
After ending the call, Lin Yi turned to the others again.
“Keep searching. Take what needs to be taken, and take pictures for evidence of what can’t be moved. Our ti is limited, so let’s hurry.”
“Understood.”
Like the others, Lin Yi was also checking around.
Besides the incomprehensible text, there were many patterns on the walls.
“What do you think it looks like?”
“A bit like a calendar.”
Lin Yi pointed at the wall in front of him and said:
“There are a lot of images on it, seems like people undergoing punishnt. It should be related to a calendar.”
“They even ca up with a calendar,” Ning Che’s tone was slightly surprised.
“Having this proves a civilization started to flourish.”
Lin Yi turned around, eyeing the other murals on the wall, “If this part is really a calendar, then other parts are likely related to astronomy and education.”
“If your guess is right, they had been flourishing here, but the sudden extinction is hard to explain.”
“Don’t forget, they were a bunch of tech fanatics, maybe sothing went wrong during experints.”
“But looking at their bodies, they clearly didn’t die from an explosion.”
“That we can’t say for sure,” Lin Yi pondered:
“Moreover, from various reports, it doesn’t ntion that the deceased in the city had sturdier bones than usual.”
“It’s getting weirder and weirder.”
“Boss, we seem to have found a secret door.”
Zhao Yunhu’s words caught Lin Yi’s attention, and everyone gathered around again.
The door was covered in unknown text. Zhao Yunhu knocked on it, and without comparison, a clear hollow sound was heard.
He looked down and noticed obvious scratches.
After examining the tall wall ahead, he had a theory in mind.
Lin Yi stepped forward and tried to push it, but it wouldn’t budge.
“Keep looking, there’s definitely a chanism here.”
The group scattered, continuously tapping on the walls, trying to find the hidden chanism.
“Found it!”
A few minutes later, Xiao Bing’s voice ca through.
She stood in front of a totem, right hand on a foot, and pushed hard inward.
Everyone’s attention was drawn to the Stone Gate!
As the chanism activated, a piercing grinding sound erged.
The massive Stone Gate slowly opened, about two ters wide and four ters tall.
But what was inside made everyone’s scalp tingle.
In sight was a mountain of bones, countless skulls scattered everywhere.
Just like the mass graves in novels, a pit of a thousand corpses.
A hell built with bones.
Even those from the Central Guards Brigade, each with blood on their hands, couldn’t calmly face this scene.
After a brief mont of shock, Lin Yi was the first to go in.
The others followed behind.
The chamber wasn’t large, about fifty to sixty square ters.
But most of the area was occupied by bones.
At least a hundred corpses.
Here, Lin Yi saw a familiar scene.
There were many things that looked like jars and bottles.
They had found similar items on the island’s ruins before.
Preliminary assessnts showed they were for experintation.
Looking back at the bones behind him, Lin Yi wasn’t surprised.
In the island ruins, the subjects were the island’s creatures, but here, the experints were conducted on humans!
“Boss!”
Shao Jianfeng called out, “The size of these skeletons is similar to normal humans, unlike those seen outside.”
“They were just test subjects, probably not the island’s natives.”
“So, the townsfolk weren’t island people either, but people from the mainland?”
“Very likely,” Lin Yi said, his gaze deep:
“2600 years ago, a rule had ford here! The natives ruled over ordinary humans.”
“That seems like flattery to the natives; it’s more like they kept them like livestock,” Qiu Yuluo said:
“In their eyes, ordinary people were just lab rats.”
Originally, everyone had a neutral relationship with the island’s natives, harboring little ill will.
But seeing this changed everything.
The natives weren’t as benevolent as they had imagined.
“Now isn’t the ti to worry about this. Keep searching to see if there’s anything of use.”
“Got it.”
The search continued, but there wasn’t much that could be utilized.
During the inspection, they found many pebble-like objects.
To avoid missing any clues, they took all these items.
Buzz buzz buzz—
Just then, a current sound ca from Lin Yi’s earphones.
Followed by Yu Siying’s voice.
“Boss, I’ve got the sealed box ready, I’m at the designated location.”
“Alright, I’ll send Hu Zi to receive you.”
Hanging up the communicator, Lin Yi signaled to Zhao Yunhu.
“Siying has arrived, go fetch her.”
“Okay.”
Zhao Yunhu left, and the others continued inspecting, taking photos for evidence of what couldn’t be taken.
Buzz buzz buzz—
At this mont, the current sound appeared again; it was Luo Qi’s voice.
“Lin Bro, an unexplainable number of ard personnel appeared in Larkana County, sothing feels off.”
“When did they appear, about ten minutes ago they started gathering, around fifty in number, their uniforms look official.”
“I see, keep observing and report any developnts imdiately.”
“Understood.”
Ning Che and the other two sensed sothing was wrong.
“Is sothing happening?”
“Ard forces appeared in the county; it might be a danger signal.”
After a few seconds of silence, Lin Yi looked at the three.
“Find so good swimrs from your team.”
