Chapter 186: Deep Pit Adventure (02)

After nearly an hour of trekking inside the mine, they finally left the enemy far behind, to be precise, they threw the enemy away, as for whether it was behind, I don't know, because they were also a little confused about their location, although they found an extremely simple internal passage structure diagram on the mine, but the reference role of this thing is quite limited, he only marked a part of the area of the mine, and it is the direction they once came, that is, Enemies are likely to be operating within that range, and they will not be able to follow the tips above.

In fact, their original plan was to use the complex structure here, get rid of the pursuers behind, and then wait for the opportunity to find a way out of the escape, but now it seems that this idea is too immature, the complexity of this place is beyond their imagination, so that they can't figure out which direction to go in order to find a way out, in fact, the easiest way is to go up, all the way up, through the wireless approach to the ground to find the exit, but after coming in, they found that the direction of the mine here is very strange, They often go up and down, thinking they are going up, but when they get to the top, they find that the mine is starting to extend downwards again, like walking a wavy line, and in the end it is difficult for them to judge whether they are slowly climbing up or going down a little bit......

"Ten minutes off!" After confirming that the neighborhood was safe, Heavy Punch said in the first voice, "Calm down and adjust your state." ”

The thorn dolphin listened to the movement behind him, and finally agreed, everyone sat down, tossed until now, and finally had a chance to catch his breath, this mine is a black mess, they all have night vision devices, so they don't care how dark it is here, but Jonathan, who doesn't know what's going on, looks at the darkness around him with a frightened face, his hands and feet are tied, his mouth is blocked, he can't make a sound and can't move, only a pair of eyes can still move, but everywhere he enters is endless darkness, He had no idea where he was.

"We have to find a way to keep going, and there's definitely no way out." Heavy punch said.

"We don't know whether it's online or down, in this undulating channel, it's really annoying, there's no way to judge our depth, the decision is hasty, there is no professional equipment, we can only judge by experience, but it's not easy." The prickly dolphin gasped.

"I feel like we're going down a little bit, it's just that the gap is not obvious, and I can't feel it." Worm said.

"Before being caught up by the enemy, don't blindly toss that we don't have much on us, the physical exertion is too great, there is no benefit, and we have to reserve some physical strength to fight with the enemy, the enemy will definitely search in small groups to find our whereabouts, and the people behind will definitely follow the traces all the way over, we can't stay too long." The thorn dolphin was still very calm, "Before coming to this place, I sent the location, hoping that they can understand that we ran here to avoid the pursuit of the enemy, and if we can't find a way out, their follow-up rescue is our only hope." ”

Heavy Punch nodded: "Let's not think about these for now, in short, let's keep looking for the exit while maneuvering with the enemy, but avoid head-on confrontation with the enemy, if we can find the exit and escape before the enemy, we will be considered successful." ”

In this ancient and deep place, the only thing that makes them feel comfortable is the dryness here, but this also means that they are very far away from the water source, and no one can be sure whether there is water here, and even if there is, it should be in a deeper place, in such a complex cave structure, it is not easy to find water, not to mention that there are pursuers behind them now.

In this complex cave structure, it is not easy to walk through, but after some searching, they still found an upward road, which is a real ramp road leading to the underground in a zigzag circle, this kind of mine with a history of more than 100 years, the elevator is a luxury, in many cases have to go in and out through this inclined slope, can find this road, it means that they have a chance to get out, so everyone immediately went up along this road, but it didn't take long, They noticed that there were enemies moving in front of them, and the dusty ground was full of fresh footprints, and it seemed that the enemy was faster than they expected, and they had already found this place one step ahead, and they could see from the direction of the footprints that they were in front of them......

Listening carefully to the movement above, they can probably judge that the enemy is not too far away from them, it should be within a hundred meters, because this passage is zigzag upward, so they can't see the enemy at all, but this is not a good sign, if you want to go out, you have to go up, but the enemy is in front again.

Judging from the number of these footprints, the enemy has indeed moved separately, there are about ten enemies in front of them, if you calculate according to the number of enemies they know before, the enemy is likely to be divided into 3 to 5 groups and move here, but the number of people is not necessarily fixed at about ten, it is likely to be more or less.

A few people stopped to discuss the question of whether to continue to go up, going up will definitely encounter the enemy, and it is very likely that a fierce conflict will break out, and there is even a danger of being surrounded by the enemy from several directions, but going up is their only way out, no one wants to be trapped in this place, but the question is if they can't get rid of the enemy, even if they go out, what can they do? Won't you still have to be killed by the enemy?

After some discussion, in the end they decided to continue the search upward, but to move forward cautiously, if not necessary, do not have any conflict with the enemy, if they encounter the enemy, immediately evacuate, avoid war with the enemy, their purpose is to avoid the enemy, not to fight with the enemy, the purpose of escaping to this place is to avoid a head-on conflict with the enemy, causing unnecessary casualties, to ensure that Jonathan survives, play his due value, this is the real purpose of their entry into this pit system, You can't ignore this just to get out of here.

At least the purpose of continuing to go up has not changed, so they carefully advance along the road, the mine road in the dark is silent, even if they are slowing down, it is inevitable to make a sound, in such an empty place, any subtle sound will be infinitely amplified, the friction of the soles of the feet, the sound of breathing sounds unusually harsh, every sound is terrifying, but they have no way, they can't avoid making a sound, like a snail, slowly move forward little by little, However, they still try to relax their movements, they don't want to be discovered by others, and they are quickly outflanked and trapped somewhere.

In this way, they went all the way up, and after climbing through the first zigzag intersection, they could finally clearly hear the enemy's footsteps not far ahead, and it was obvious that the enemy was also looking for the exit in the same way, of course, the enemy's purpose may not only be to leave, but more likely to hold the exit and block them inside.

They walked more carefully, slowing down a little bit forward, the ghost had already taken the first step to follow, closing in to observe the enemy's movements, and soon he found that those enemies were scattered and advancing along this passage, and did not notice that there were people following behind him, a total of nine enemies, all with night vision equipment and automatic weapons, divided into two groups to alternately move forward, there was indeed a certain level of professionalism.

Heavy punches they cautiously followed behind, not daring to get too close, just went all the way up, walked for nearly 20 minutes, the whole passage finally came to an end, but after climbing to the top, they found that this is not a so-called exit, just a relatively flat place, there are more than a dozen large and small holes nearby, it turns out that this is just a main passage, extending to a certain position, if you want to continue to go up, you have to find the right way from this large and small hole, This may be a space dug up after a certain mining, and then according to the direction of the vein, several pits are re-excavated, some downward, some extend parallelly, and the scale of these holes can be seen that the whole vein distribution is very extensive, so there are so many holes of different sizes, and different extension directions.

In this way, they don't know which direction to go, and the enemy seems to be facing a similar problem as them, but the enemy doesn't stay here longer, but chooses a path and continues to explore, since they don't know where to go, they don't continue to follow the enemy, but choose a path based on experience, and continue to move forward, before leaving, the ghost has arranged a trick mine at the hole where the enemy has entered, although it is not sure if that passage can return to the ground, if it can get out, the enemy behind will definitely go from there, This deterioration will certainly play a certain role, and even if it can't get out, the enemy is likely to return the same way, find another direction, and still have to go from there, so this is likely to become a necessary path for the enemy, whether it is in front or behind.

It didn't take long for them to move forward through the passage and they noticed that something was not quite right, there was also enemy activity in this vicinity, there were footprints all over the ground, and from the direction, the enemy had repeatedly walked here more than once, as if he was lost and looking for a way out, and it was no wonder that the neighborhood was full of forks in the road, messy, like an ant's nest.

"We seem to be in the wrong place, right? The more complicated it becomes, it means that it is going deeper into this place, and if it approaches upward, there must not be so many forks in the road. The ghost thought they might have gotten lost, but they didn't realize it.

"Can't get out, this place is a bit chaotic, and if we continue like this, we'll have to be trapped here......" Heavy Punch also felt that the situation was not good.

"Go back to find other exits......" The hedgehog looked at the messy footprints on the ground, he was already a little dizzy, the holes near here all looked the same, and it could be seen that these holes were originally hung with signs, but many of them had fallen off, and the rest had been mottled and blurred, and it was impossible to see what was written, which was the main reason why this place became a labyrinth, without a clear mark, it was impossible to determine the direction of the entire cave, as well as the direction of the extension of the mine, There's no way to tell which is the right way to get out of here.

They followed the trails they had left behind, reluctantly retreating, and finally found the way to exit, but as they walked, they found that the traces they had left before had been covered, and not long after they passed here, there were enemies who had also come, and the mixture of the two phases was simply unrecognizable, and finally they had to admit that they had lost their way.

After several fruitless searches, they finally realized that they were too optimistic before, thinking that they would have a chance to return to the ground by going all the way up and finding the main road, but now it seems that they can't even find the original passage.

In desperation, they could only re-determine the direction and continue to ensure the upward trend to see if they could find the original road, or the new main road, but after turning for more than an hour, they found that it seemed to be going deeper and deeper......

"It's going to be hilarious now, if we go on like this, we'll definitely go to the deepest place, there won't be ghosts, right? It's taking us to the bottom. "We're going all the way up, but judging by the environmental features around here, it seems like we're going down. ”

"It's just too complicated, when this place was mined, there was no plan at all, where there was ore, where to dig, more than 100 years of mining, this must have been dug into a huge ant nest, and it was criss-crossed, mixed together, so it constituted this labyrinth-like place, can not go forward, go back, no matter what the situation is behind, at least the place we walked must have a way out in a certain direction, it's a big waste of time, as long as you find the previous upward channel, At least that position is a little closer to the way out! "The dolphins knew very well that their situation was worse than expected, and instead of looking for a new way out, it would be better to go back to the places they had walked before, which was too conservative, but at least it was safe to avoid going deeper.

There was no other better way for them to return the way they had been, and finally they returned to the place that gave them a headache, and it was because they couldn't find a way out here, so they chose a new direction, but the result was worse than expected, they didn't find a good way to go, and they ran farther and farther, and the more they walked, the more hopeless they became, and after returning to the passage that extended in all directions, they planned to re-explore and see if they could return to the passage that separated from the enemy, But before they could find the right direction, the enemy appeared, and the enemy seemed to be confused and resting, and when they appeared, they startled the enemy, and the two sides immediately fell into a fierce state of fighting......
