While repairing the car, Han Xiao reflected on the problems exposed in the battle just now.
His current combat mode is mainly sniping. The best tactic is to fly a kite, but his own movement speed is not fast, so he should make some gadgets to increase his speed.
The power leg is a good choice, but Han Xiao thinks it is too bulky. It happens that with the current level and knowledge, he can build a new thing that is more flexible.
He feels that he can further improve his combat mode, such as forming a team of robots to provide firepower assistance to make up for the slow frequency of sniper attacks.
Anyway, our Department of Mechanical Engineering is a wholesale equipment manufacturer. We are self-reliant and make up for whatever we lack.
After quickly repairing the car, Han Xiao drove the Thorn and followed the coordinates of the radar mark back to the entrance of Filonia. He immediately saw a series of footprints that extended to the edge of the cave entrance and disappeared. He thought about it for a moment. , and knew that the group of wanderers had gone down first.
If you are an ordinary person, you may worry that the good things inside will be discovered first, but Han Xiao feels that it is better to have someone help him detect mines.
Standing at the edge of the cave entrance and looking down, the rock wall has distinct layers. At the junction of sunlight and darkness, rusty metal can be vaguely seen extending downwards.
"There are traces of artificial excavation on the rock wall, and there is a fishy smell in the wind...the smell of rust. I have never seen this place before. Go down and have a look."
Han Xiao led everyone Equipped with a flashlight in his mouth, he climbed down the rock wall and used the flashlight to shine down from time to time.
As he got farther and farther from the ground and the sunlight gradually disappeared, he realized that the rock wall had a curvature.
Soon, the sunlight disappeared, and the surroundings were dark, leaving only the flashlight as the only source of light. This gloomy atmosphere made Han Xiao involuntarily be vigilant, and he felt a slight chill appear out of thin air, entangled in his heart. I wish I could slow down my heartbeat to relieve my nervousness.
After crawling down for about three minutes, the flashlight light finally illuminated the ground. It turned out to be a hollow metal floor, covered with dust, with thick cobwebs in the gaps. No one had stepped on it for a long time.
Han Xiao turned over and fell down, making a thud, and the echo spread far away. In this dark environment where he could not see his fingers, it seemed very empty and permeable.
The surroundings are empty and deep, and the light of the flashlight is like an isolated island in the dark ocean. There are rustling sounds in the darkness, as if the sound of landing just now has attracted the attention of some unknown beings.
The flashlight swept around and found that he was in a metal corridor, which seemed to be in the architectural style of the base. There were reinforced concrete everywhere, and the walls were covered with yellow-green rusty oxides, and there were vaguely weird software. Bugs crawled in the rust.
The hollow metal plate on the ground was covered with dust, and there was a series of new footprints extending forward, presumably from the group of pilgrims who had gone ahead.
There should be space underneath the metal hollow floor.
Han Xiao turned the flashlight and shined it at his feet, seeing the scene below.
Through the carvings under your feetEmpty metal plate, countless dense red compound eyes in the darkness watching him silently!
“Holy shit!”
Han Xiao’s scalp went numb and he hurriedly withdrew the lights and listed the lower level as a restricted area.
He carefully followed the footsteps of the pilgrims. There was silence all around, and there was a vague sound of crawling creatures. He calmed down and listened, but they disappeared without a trace. It was very strange, which made him feel uncomfortable. People can't help but become nervous.
After walking a short distance, there is a fork in the road ahead, and the pilgrim's footprints disappear in the right fork.
While he was hesitating, there were rapid footsteps on the right side of the road. It seemed like many people were running in panic, approaching quickly.
Han Xiao hurriedly dodged to the other side of the fork, turned off the flashlight, and put on the night vision device wholesaled by Farian.
"Hurry, run!"
"Monster!"
The pilgrims ran out of the side road in panic, as if they were avoiding some indescribable monster. There was a lot of blood on the clothes, and the number of people became smaller.
“What are they hiding from?” Han Xiao wondered.
Suddenly, a low roar like a beast came from the other side of the road next door. It was hoarse and heavy, like a giant's sigh, with a buzzing echo. Just hearing this sound made his blood surge. , I feel disgusted in my chest and secretly frightened.
"This is a high-level beastly coercion, definitely more than level 40!"
This group of pilgrims looked frightened, not knowing what terrifying existence they had seen. Using his hands and feet, he crawled back in panic.
However, the monster didn't seem to come out. The pilgrims sat down limply, looking like they were surviving the disaster.
The monster did not make any footsteps, Han Xiao remembered it in his heart.
"Joel was eaten by a monster, ugh..."
"It's so scary here."
The old pilgrim was trembling, looking dejected, as if His energy and energy were drained away, and he said: "This is not Philonia. There is nothing we want. Get out of here quickly and let's find the real ruins."
Legendary magic ruins , should be filled with a mysterious and ancient atmosphere, carved with countless mysterious lines that are incomprehensible, and should be made of stone as the main body of the ruins, but here is just a man-made steel base. He saw the emblem of the lost country on the wall. , this is a secret military base in the old country.
The pilgrims fell silent, and a young man said: "Maybe this is the real Philonia. The motherland found the ruins and built a base here just to study the treasure of the desert. ."
The Treasure of the Desert, the legendary treasure of Feronia, can control the Somar Desert.
The old pilgrim shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Impossible. If the old country had the treasure of the desert, how could it be destroyed?"
"This is not the place we are looking for. The real The ruins of Philonia are still hidden in a corner of the desert!”
The old pilgrim was determined.
The pilgrims helped each other and left.
After listening to their discussion, Han Xiao finally solved some of the doubts. As far as he knew, there was no magic in Aquamarine. The so-called miracles of the Desert Treasure were probably just some technological weapons. role.
But people always have confidence and unrealistic illusions about mysterious things they don’t understand. It reminded him of a story inexplicably. When a flood came, a man prayed to the gods on the roof for rescue. God sent a boat to save him, but he only wanted to expect a miracle.
He doesn’t know why the pilgrims firmly believe that Philonia is related to magic, but it seems to have nothing to do with him... Or is this another reminder of another hidden mission?
After calming down, Han Xiao waited for the pilgrims to go far away before showing up, and hesitated when facing the fork in the road.
The pilgrim found out that there is a monster on the right side, which is very dangerous, but there is an unknown thing on the left side, which may be more dangerous. How to choose?
"According to experience, this group of pilgrims acted as dungeon guides, prompting that there were monsters on the right. This was an obvious signal, but it may have two meanings. The first was to warn not to go to the right. There is a monster, and the second meaning is that it deliberately misled me to go to the left..."
Han Xiao gritted his teeth and resolutely chose the right. The unknown was more terrifying than the monster. He still remembered the dense red eyes on the lower level. If he encountered When you see those things, you have to shed a layer of skin even if you don't die.
He put on electric heating cutting gloves, did not use a flashlight, only used night vision goggles, and entered the right fork. His field of vision was dark green, and he could barely see the road ahead.
There are huge footprints on the ground that are very different from human beings. They are probably left by the monster. They also have two legs and five toes. According to the proportion of human height, this monster is about three meters tall.
After walking for a while, a room with an open door appeared ahead, and the monster's footprints extended to the door and stopped abruptly.
Han Xiao quietly approached the door and smelled a stench, like meat that had rotted for many years, and a trace of fresh blood.
He looked inside.
A pair of copper-bell-sized eyes were staring at him condescendingly, only half a meter away!
Han Xiao’s hair stood on end.
