No matter how harsh the environment is, there are always species with tenacious vitality that survive through the law of natural selection of the fittest. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoThe underwater world is like that, even if it is mysterious and terrifying.

Diving the hull underwater, Ye Nuan could clearly feel the weak and huge life force from the surroundings. They were plankton that followed the waves, the largest no more than ten centimeters, and even she couldn't see the smallest. Some of the tentacles are spread around, some are low-key curled up, and the posture is also different, of course, these creatures are the most numerous in the upper layer of the ocean that can receive light, and the further down the sea, the fewer creatures live, and when they descend to the bottom, there are only a few transparent krill present, and as soon as they see a huge metal monster, they will swoop and disappear without a trace.

Stopping the hull of the ship firmly in a corner of the undersea city, Song Ning took the initiative to get up, and seeing that Ye Nuan didn't say much, he directly signaled his subordinates to act.

In fact, although the old city under the sea looks weird, the strange thing is that after the people on the ship put on their equipment and got off the ship one after another, they stayed for a long time, and they were uneventful. Kuai Liang also got off the boat with the large army, and after more than an hour, he came back from nowhere, holding a gray old red brick with a broken corner in his hand, and walked to Song Ning's side.

"It seems to be carved with something like a totem." Although these words were said to Song Ning, Kuai Liang's gaze was straight to Ye Nuan. He has a specialization in art, and he feels that this kind of thing should be what Ye Nuan is good at, even if he admits that the powerful and inhuman Chief Song Ning can only listen.

Song Ning didn't mind, just looked at the old bricks and didn't say anything for a while.

Ye Nuan heard Kuai Liang's words, and took the old red brick in his hand and looked at it. Because it had just been taken out of the water, the broken old brick still had a thick moisture on it, and a thin layer of white powder was spread on the surface, and the smell spread into the air, even with the saltiness of seawater.

"Where did you pick this thing up?" Although there was no word from above, after everyone experienced the wind and rain on the ship before, they naturally did not dare to destroy this strange place, and few of them dared to destroy the original things of the underwater city, for fear of causing trouble. Even Kuai Liang, who is bold, will not act rashly for the safety of his own life. This broken red brick could only have been picked up from some corner.

"There is a city wall over there, and it is made of red bricks of this material, and the bricks on the highest level of the wall are all carved with this totem." Pointing to the southwest corner, some distance from the ship, Kuai Liang replied.

The pattern on the brick is not really special, it is a bird with a cold gaze that resembles an eagle, but it has a pair of human legs. Ye Nuan wiped the white powder on it, and the pattern on the brick was completely revealed, looking at the picture on the brick, Ye Nuan raised his eyebrows and said, "I originally thought that it was just an eagle bird on it, as a spiritual belief, just like primitive people worship snakes, but the things on this brick are obviously not so simple." It is a human with two wings, with the upper body of a human female, and the lower body, which inherits the characteristics of a human male, and may be called intersex. There have been such humans in human history, but even if they are physically disabled, they still don't have wings. ”

Hearing this, Song Ning's eyes slipped a hint of discoloration, and he pondered for a moment before saying, "I remember that in the expeditionary force back then, there seemed to be a race that believed in this totem. ”

"Have you ever seen this pattern? And what is the Expeditionary Force? ”

"This goes back to before the empire was founded, when there was no unified state, because of the division of power, each place had an actual leader in each place. The expeditionary force is not called the expeditionary force, they do not have a fixed name, some people call them the fishbone clan, some people call them shepherds, and there is more than one ethnic group in the whole group, and the belief is polytheistic. No one knows where these people came from, only that they were very different from other faiths and civilizations, and although they were not huge in number, their strength should not be underestimated, and they were the most powerful and mysterious of those forces at that time. However, as time went on, their population became smaller and smaller, and they were coerced into exile by a force that grew stronger and stronger in the name of an expedition to find a paradise for mankind. Because of their mystery, the force that coerced them did not dare to tear their faces directly, and allowed their entire group to leave, but this group was artificially downplayed its existence, and later generations only called that group of people the expeditionary force, but did not know what their origin was. As for the totem, I haven't seen it, I've only heard people talk about it. ”

Although Song Ning said it simply, Ye Nuan keenly heard some deep meaning from his words.

"Ahh Without waiting for Ye Nuan to ask questions, Golang, who knew the sea, spoke directly.

Shocked by the sudden noise in his head, Ye Nuan couldn't help frowning, and felt a little helpless in his heart about the alien intelligent life form that was not very reliable most of the time. I saw that the other party was doing a good job in running a business on Skynet, and this trip was quite serious, but why did the style of painting suddenly change, and it was not singing.

"Ding Dong, congratulations to the host, you guessed it right, I've been studying the famous drama of your Chinese nation recently, and I have a hanging voice every day, I think I'm practicing pretty well, do you want to listen to it?" Really, systematics things are very fast, you can consider the full version. ”

"Don't, I don't have time or heart to listen to you sing right now. Seriously, what do you know this time? ”

As a parasitic future native, he has lived here for a long time, and no alien knows much about it, and Ye Nuan is actually a little envious and jealous of this system in his heart.

"I don't know anything." seemed to feel that he might have lost his words, as soon as these words fell, no matter how Ye Nuan asked, Golang didn't speak anymore, Ye Nuan had to give up asking about aliens.

"How much do you know about the Expeditionary Force?" Looking at Song Ning, Ye Nuan asked. If this place was the lair of the so-called expeditionary force, Ye Nuan might suspect that the expeditionary force was related to the legendary demon race.

Song Ning shook his head, "I know what you are suspicious of, although the expeditionary force has the strength and even the motivation to build this ancient city, it is impossible for them to find such a large number of omegas, otherwise they would not have been able to get less and less in population at the beginning, and in the end, their strength fell and they could only be defeated." ”

"At that time, although human beings were genetically modified, the defects were not so stable, how can you be sure that only omegas can play the role of pregnant bodies, you must know that in the beginning of the world, there were only two genders, male and female. What you think is a precious omega may be a sacrifice that can gain power. ”

Because she didn't really go to the previous sea area to check on those rotting corpses, Ye Nuan didn't know much about the situation of those omega corpses, but through the report of the technician on the ship, she still had some thoughts. If the omega was really so valuable as a treasure, then no matter what kind of force it was, it would never be possible to commit such an extreme atrocity and wantonly kill so many pregnant bodies that could be used for the continuation of the race. Reproduction is the instinct of living beings, and self-destruction is basically not something that an intelligent race would do, so the only possibility is that omegas have little effect on them, and in the form of death, it may be able to bring greater benefits to the owner of this secret realm.

"Moreover, the expeditionary force you know is only a part, maybe they have other identities." However, since those people were able to become the most powerful human force at that time, and they must be almost no different from humans in appearance, they would not be the demons she had guessed before. Thinking of this, Ye Nuan still breathed a sigh of relief, she probably knew the meaning of her rebirth, which was to solve all the problems of this disordered plane and let it return to its normal track.

"Let's not mention the expeditionary force for now, let's find the ghost orchid." Song Ning said. Even if there is a deeper suspicion of the original expeditionary force, but now is not the time to delve into history, under the deep sea, especially in this sea area is too weird, safety is the first priority, and the first priority is to get the ghost orchid.

Ye Nuan was a little silent when she heard this, and finally had to nod, she persuaded herself not to worry about too many things for the time being, after all, there were so many people with her, she had a chance to avoid danger, but others were not necessarily, it was better to find the ghost orchid as soon as possible. The Ghost Orchid has been found, and its companions can also be found, so that the Orcs may have a clue to return to their original plane.

Suddenly released her divine consciousness and covered the entire ancient city ruins, and in an instant, Ye Nuan condensed a force in front of her, which was not invisible, but turned into milky white gas, rolling in the area in front of her. It seems that a long time has passed, but in fact, it is only a few breaths of time, and what is presented to everyone is the ruins of a miniature ancient city made of white mist.

Looking at the miniature ancient city in front of him, Ye Nuan kept gesticulating, his lips and teeth kept touching each other, and it seemed to convey the sound of the ancients.

A few minutes later, Ye Nuan pointed out a road, "The direction of 10 o'clock is the direction where the ghost orchid is, keep walking in this direction, no matter what you see in the middle, don't change the route." ”

"Can you drive the spaceship over there, or do you have to walk through it by manpower?" Song Ning said.

"Ships are different from people, they have different frequencies, and they encounter different things. But I have a bad feeling that ......"

Because the divination results are a little bad.

It's just that Ye Nuan just finished speaking, and a vision suddenly appeared. Countless skeletons from far and near, rushing at a rapid pace, surrounded a group of them and the ship.

"Oh my God, it's not going to be those omegas, is it?" A cry of uncontrollable horror rushed into Ye Nuan's ears. (To be continued.) )
