Chapter 254: Snake Pillar
"It's a treasure here. ”
Holding a flashlight, Montgomery tilted his head to survey the inside of the cave.
In the second cave, there are a large number of remains scattered around, which should be the original burial goods of the ruins.
But on the remains, their armor, their ornaments, in addition to gold, there were also a large number of precious stones.
Squeak –
The skull, which has been oxidized for a long time, is easily crushed by a big foot.
The hollow eyes of the bones on the ground did not frighten the invaders in the slightest, but ignited everyone's greed.
Can a group of corrupted skeletons stand up and resist?
Without the slightest respect for the deceased, the backlog of bones in the hall was shattered one by one.
Greedy hands took off their jewels.
"There are more than ten kilograms of gold in the light. ”
Putting all the jewelry into the bag, Montgomery grinned.
"Guys, we're rich. ”
"I can't imagine that these backward aborigines have so much wealth. ”
Looking at the many team members, Montgomery's face looked a little gloomy under the flickering light and darkness.
Suddenly, Montgomery raised the muzzle of his gun and aimed it at one of the group.
"Marjorie, hands up. ”
"Don't do that, chief, we're friends......"
Seeing that the muzzle of the gun was aimed at him, and Marjorie, who was still wrapped in bandages, his eyes flickered, his hands pressed weakly, and his mouth explained.
Bang!
Gunshots!
Montgomery's face remained unchanged as he saw that the pistol was retracted to his waist.
"Marjorie, because we are friends, I will only allow you this chance. ”
Ding Ding –
Metal objects fell on the cold stone slabs, and there was a crisp crashing sound in the open space.
The man next to him shone a flashlight at Marjorie.
In Marjorie's side trouser pocket, a hole was opened.
More than a dozen gold ornaments are sticking out of the hole.
Marjorie was watched by everyone, his face turned pale for a while, and finally he lowered his head helplessly.
Reaching into his trouser pocket, he pulled out the gold and gems inside, and walked to Montgomery's bag and put it in.
Alas......
Seeing this, everyone sighed.
Wealth moves people's hearts, trying to hide their ugly deeds with the help of darkness......
Seeing this, Lilia remained silent.
At this time, it is not advisable to have too obvious contradictions in the team, wait until you go out, and settle accounts together.
In the dreary ranks, there were still a few people whose eyes flickered, and they couldn't see their faces clearly, and they didn't know what they were thinking.
Walking out of this stone room along the tunnel, everyone only felt that there was a sudden opening in front of them.
The air was thick with decay and went straight to the nose.
And at the feet of everyone, there was the sound of rushing water......
The strange crowd pointed the flashlight at their feet, gasped, and their bodies couldn't help but take a step back.
At the feet of everyone, dozens of meters high, there is a cold deep pool.
The water in the deep pool is windless and automatic, as if it can swallow the light, and the light shines on it, reflecting only the light of the stars.
On the opposite side of the deep pool, there was another high platform, and the opposite side was pitch black, and even the strong flashlight could not illuminate what existed there.
Montgomery, the leader, threw a small probe downward.
Puff –
After a while, there was a lonely sound of falling water.
"Let's see if there's any picture. ”
Reed hurriedly turned on the computer and operated on it.
On the display screen, a set of data came to life, and now everyone is 10 meters away from the water.
"Now the detector has descended to 5 meters under the water and is still descending. ”
Reed looked at the data, and with a movement of his finger, the screen appeared.
I could only see the dark and terrible waters around the probe, and I couldn't see the surrounding scene clearly.
Gradually, the image from the detector appeared to be snowflakes and then completely blackened.
"I don't know what's going on underwater, but I think it's better to stay away. ”
Reed shrugged and glanced at the water with fear.
At this point, Montgomery pointed to a certain part of the computer, "Why did the signal from the detector we planted disappear?"
"Maybe it's because we're in the ruins, and the rocks are blocking the radio signals. ”
Reid explained, "You see, in the stone chamber that we just came out of, the detector's signal is still there. ”
Montgomery wasn't a tech-savvy person, he just nodded.
"Pay attention, this is the remains of the ancient Incas. ”
"Got it, I'll ask the tech dealers to refund me when I get back. ”
Reid muttered.
"Alright guys, look for your way to the other side. ”
Lilia spoke up, "If this deep pool represents the dividing line, then we are on the periphery, and the inner city is opposite. ”
"Find your way to the past, and the treasures of the inner city will definitely please us. ”
The crowd dispersed slightly, looking for a way to the past.
"Guys, see what I found?"
On one side, Daniel, who walked 50 meters away, shouted.
The lights illuminated Daniel's vision.
Stone pillars stand in the deep pool, each stone pillar is 1 meter apart, and the area is only 50 square meters.
At a glance, the winding stone pillars look like a long snake, leading straight to the opposite bank.
In the middle section, there are also stone pillars that have been broken in half due to years of disrepair, and the collapsed stone pillars are leaning against the adjacent stone pillars......
This is the way it used to be?
Looking at the many broken stone pillars, Montgomery frowned.
When the ruins were established, I didn't think that people from outside would come in again.
So many stone pillars have been damaged, and those that have not been damaged must be stable and strong?
Although most of them are from the military, and it is not a problem to cross 2 or 3 meters, this is a ruin, a ruin full of dangers.
So far, they have not encountered a deadly trap.
If the pillar breaks in the middle of the way, it will be whether it will fall into the water, drown, or be stoned to death.
None of them were what he wanted.
"If this is the only way ......"
Cayde clinged to the back of the line, looking at the surface of the pillar where only one person could stay, worried.
"If we have an enemy behind us, none of us can escape. ”
"Shut up!"
Lilia glared fiercely at Cade.
"We have already walked the road behind, and no one is following us, how can there be an enemy. ”
Squeak –
A slight voice came.
"What sound?"
The crowd turned their lights around, and there was nothing but the dark space.
Squeak –
Another bang.
"Boss, we ...... The detector signal that we left in the stone chamber in front of us is gone......"
Reed, who was holding the computer, accidentally glanced at the computer and couldn't take his eyes off it.
Boom –
It's the sound of swallowing saliva.
Everyone hurriedly gathered in front of the computer.
At the last moment when the signal disappeared, two scarlet points of light lingered on the screen.
"Hey, what's wrong with you?"
Abner grabbed Cade, who was slumped to the ground.
