Chapter 180: The Lost Ancient City
After Yang Yi and Gui Lao arrived at the bottom of the island, they followed the current to the edge of the city they saw in front, only to see that this city was built of stone, I don't know how many years it has been sunk in the water, but I can still feel the feeling of being thick and strong, and the stone seams are very neatly spliced, and there is an adhesive made of unknown material in the middle, which looks beautiful.
Yang Yi summoned Ao Zhen out, including Sha Wei and Tiger Howling Guard, who were close to her, and hundreds of people descended here, without even a ripple, which shows the fine control of strength and water.
After talking about Hades's discovery, Yang Yi planned to dig out this city to see where the signal of the alien civilization came from. With a wave of his hand, Ao Zhen arranged for the two of them to do this work, for them, the excavation is not like an archaeological expert, cleaning up little by little, and a small area cannot be cleaned up for several years.
Sha Wei and Hu Xiaowei directly used spells to remove the entire sediment in them, and then rinsed them with water flow, and then re-focused on other important positions, which was faster than the countless archaeological teams, and it only took five minutes for the outline of the city to come out, and fifteen minutes later, a cleaned ancient city appeared in front of them on the entire seabed.
This city is very magnificent, covering an area of at least ten square kilometers, it is built of dark yellow stone, the top of the circle that Yang Yi saw at first is the last and highest point of the city, built on the hillside, and then from here down are gradually lowered, the streets are all step by step, leading to the gate of the city in the distance, and the houses on both sides of the street are also distributed along the terrain, very neat and tidy.
Yang Yi and the others entered from the city gate and went up along the street, more than two hundred soldiers explored this place separately, and Hades couldn't help but operate his mobile phone to take pictures, fortunately it was transformed by Hades, otherwise the water pressure alone could crush the mobile phone, let alone soak in water.
The city was not built of any age, and the style was different from the architectural style he was familiar with, but it was very magnificent. There should have been a market on both sides of the street, and it should have been very prosperous in the beginning.
Because both sides of the street are covered with dried corpses of different shapes, their facial expressions can be seen clearly, most of them are frightened, as if they suddenly encountered some disaster and wanted to escape, but they should have been sealed down before they ran far, which perfectly maintained the state at that time.
"Could it be that this is another Pompeii?" Yang Yi looked at the towering volcano not far away, and communicated with Ao Zhen and Gui Lao with his thoughts.
"The earthquake caused a volcanic eruption, and then the ash magma quickly covered the city, suffocating the people underneath, and the earthquake caused the ocean floor to subside, and the city was submerged forever!" Hades replied.
"How do you know that's the case?" Yang Yi asked.
"Simulation, simulation, do you understand? Don't you humans also have natural disaster simulation software now? I just upgraded it in combination with that software and simulated a bag of disasters!"
Hades said as he turned on the camera's lights and projected them on a wall, revealing a magnificent stone city where countless residents were living and working in peace, and the bazaar was bustling with people taking what they needed and trading.
Who knew that the disaster came in an instant, there was an earthquake not far from the island, the residents of the island were shaken and staggered, and the buildings were also damaged, everyone looked at each other, and before they could figure out what was going on, a bigger disaster came.
The mountain on which the city rests is a volcano, after the earthquake the lava crater burst, the top of the mountain billowing smoke, black volcanic ash quickly enveloped the surrounding area, many residents under the influence of the volcanic ash, covered their mouths and noses and began to flee, but the thick volcanic ash blocked the sun, but also blocked the oxygen, many residents fell to the street in pain.
At this time, the volcano completely erupted, the hot magma and hot stones splashed wantonly, many buildings were destroyed, and more residents died under this sudden disaster, and then the fiery red magma covered the entire city, coupled with another wave of violent earthquakes, the island slowly sank to the bottom of the sea, and after many years, only the crater protruding from the sea was left, and this magnificent city completely disappeared in the long river of history.
"Looks like you're still a little useful!" said Gui Lao with a smile as he looked at Hades's picture next to him.
"Uh, you're good at it, it's just basic!" Hades was stunned for a moment, and the hippie smile "licked" it.
"Then what is the relationship between this city and alien civilizations?" Ao Zhen also asked strangely.
During this time, Ao Zhen was not idle, Yang Yi got her a lot of information and videos, and so far she has an understanding of the general situation of the current world, including some secrets on the earth, so they are not calling foreign lands or aliens at every turn, but starting to talk about alien civilizations.
"I don't know yet, but it seems that the location of the signal is near that castle, we can go and find it!" Hades said, pointing to the towering castle on the hillside.
The layout of this city is boxy, a bit similar to the ancient Chinese city, but the architecture is somewhat similar to the style of the Western Middle Ages, anyway, it looks very good, but I haven't seen this style and think it's a little weird.
On the hillside is an extremely vast castle, Yang Yi and they guessed that it should be the imperial palace here, after all, whether it is China or the West, managers like to choose the best location for their own residence to show their existence and superior style.
When Yang Yi and the others came to the castle, there was also a pile of dried corpses here, and many of the soldier-like dried corpses still maintained the posture of holding weapons, but the weapons had rotted completely, and only some wooden wreckage remained.
Walking into the castle, Sha Wei and Tiger Roaring Wei also returned, and did not find anything too valuable, after all, it is ancient, and there are still very few civilians who can leave historical materials, most of which will be kept in the area where the ruler is located, such as this castle.
Since it had been cleaned up, they still entered through the gate, and Shawei and Tiger Roaring Guard circled the castle and jointly established a transparent barrier to drain the water in it, and now everyone felt the interior of the castle on the ground.
The first thing you see is the hall of the castle, and in the middle is a statue, which looks like it is carved from a whole piece of jade, but everyone is a little daze when they see this statue, because the clothes on this statue are actually a spacesuit with a very high sense of science and technology, and the carving skills are also very good, and the spacesuit can still be seen to be shining with metallic luster.
It's just that the head of this statue is a bit weird, it is a lizard head covered in scales, two slightly slender eyes, small nostrils on a raised mouth, a slightly open mouth with pointed teeth, and a forked tongue.
If you look closely at the hands of the statue, they are also five fingers, but the fingertips have claws, and there are reptile-specific flesh between the fingers, and there is a long tail behind the spacesuit.
"What is this?lizardman?" Yang Yi asked first, although he had seen a lot of strange creatures, he couldn't help but be surprised.
"Sort of, Hades, can you recover?" asked Gui Lao, rubbing his beard.
"Of course, look at me!"
Hades controlled the mobile phone to send out a beam of light, scanned it on the statue, and the 3D model began to slowly appear on the mobile phone screen, and the color was also added, sure enough, it was a lizard man with a whole body green, Ao Zhen took a sip at a glance, Hades This guy restored the private location of the lizard man, green and straight, and Ao Zhen hurriedly turned his head to see it.
"That's about it!" Hades said.
"Old Gui, are you guys such exotic creatures?" Yang Yi asked, pointing to the lizardman on his phone.
"I don't have any impression, maybe I participated in it at the beginning, or maybe I didn't participate in the invasion, this city can't be left over from the era of the immortals, and the dead humans outside don't look like they were from that era, let's find out if there are any other developments." ”
Yang Yi nodded, agreed with Gui Lao's statement, and everyone continued to look inside the castle, after passing this hall, there was a long corridor, and the sides were actually murals, but they had been soaked in water for a long time, and the color of the murals was a little unclear, and Yang Yi looked at Hades again.
"I'll take pictures of them and restore them!"
