Chapter 686: The Secret of the Waterhole
Joyce's heart was half chilled when he saw the mercenaries of the Devil's organization rushing over, and if they continued to consume at this rate, they would all be wiped out sooner or later.
But now that it has reached this level, as long as it can repel the attack of this devil organization, the mercenaries of the Money Empire will be able to rush in.
The current progress is piled up by human lives, and if it is retreated, it will be a heavy loss, and this will inevitably make Taiji Island suspicious.
No one can believe that the world's second-largest organization can't even attack a small base.
So Joyce had already given the order to die, even if he died, he would rush in.
The mercenaries knew that they had no way out, and now that they were all red-eyed, they had stubbornly resisted the counterattack of the devil's organization.
Just when Joyce's side was in a bitter battle, Lei Kun and the madman on the other side were very relaxed, and the ease was a little unbelievable.
The two of them walked into the pitch-black gap, and there was no danger in this narrow passage except for the cold wind facing each other.
But the two groped their way forward for a distance of more than 20 meters, and a waterhole suddenly appeared in front of them.
Not only did the waterhole block their way, but there was no other way to it.
"There's no way out?" The madman apparently felt incredulous, and quickly took out a flashlight to light up the surroundings.
The two searched the cave thoroughly, but there was nothing in it, as if they had entered a dead end.
Immediately after that, the two of them looked at the bottomless pool at the same time.
Lei Kun looked at the madman, "That passage can't be in this pool, right?" ”
The madman nodded slightly, "Now it seems that this is the only possibility. ”
"What then?" Lei Kun paused for a moment and hesitated: "To go down or not to go down?" ”
The madman said categorically: "Down! ”
"Okay, you go first, I'll wait for you here, ...... here"
Before Lei Kun finished speaking, the madman had already pushed Lei Kun into the waterhole.
"Damn!"
At this time, Lei Kun could only curse secretly, he felt that the madman had begun to become more and more despicable, and it seemed that he would stay away from the madman in the future.
At this moment the madman also jumped down, and the madman moved cautiously as he walked forward.
Lei Kun could only shake his head and sigh, helplessly following.
The two of them had only walked a dozen steps before they felt that there was indeed a hole in the sky below.
The two of them had just moved more than four meters away, and the current water level was already waist-high.
By the time the water reached the chests of the two of them, there was no road ahead, only a stone wall.
The two glanced at each other, and the madman said directly: "I'll go down and see if there is a way out of this pool." ”
After saying that, the madman suddenly took a deep breath and dived straight in.
In this case, Lei Kun of course chose to stay where he was and waited for the madman's signal.
Five minutes have passed unconsciously, and the madman has not yet appeared, which makes Lei Kun feel a little uneasy.
Normal people are able to hold their breath underwater for more than a minute, and people like them are trained to hold their breath for longer.
But now there has been no movement for four minutes, which can't help but make Lei Kun think more.
Just as Lei Kun was about to dive into the pool, he suddenly felt a fluctuation in the current, obviously someone swimming in the water.
It is unclear whether the person in the water is friend or foe, but Lei Kun is ready to fight, and the pistol is also clenched in his hand, as long as there is an abnormal situation, he will immediately pull the trigger.
But in the next second, a person suddenly came out of the water, and after a closer look, this person was a madman.
When Lei Kun saw that it was a madman who appeared, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
If someone else emerges from this pool, it means that something has happened to the madman.
Fortunately, this did not happen, and the madman remained unharmed.
Lei Kun hurriedly asked, "What's the situation inside?" ”
The madman wiped the water stains on his face and said: "There is indeed a space behind this stone wall, but the distance between it is not close, you need to hold your breath for about two minutes, and you have to touch the stone wall to move forward, otherwise it is very likely to get lost in the waterhole." ”
Holding his breath for two minutes is just a basic skill for Lei Kun, and there is no problem at all.
But the madman said, "There are parasites in this water, and we need to watch out for them." ”
In fact, what Lei Kun fears most is that there are other creatures in this water.
If there are only parasites in this, then it can only be said that the devil organization still has a conscience, and if some piranhas are put in this pool, I am afraid that he and the madman will become clean in less than half a minute, and it is estimated that there will be only a skeleton left.
This is obviously impossible, after all, this passage is so hidden that it is so that if there is any accident in the base one day, the people in the base can be evacuated in time.
So there will never be such an instantly lethal creature.
Lei Kun and the madman covered their mouths and noses with their combat uniforms, and then quickly dived into the waterhole.
No sooner had he dived into the waterhole than Lei Kun felt a parasite attached to his combat suit.
The madman's luck just now was really good, those parasites didn't go directly into his mouth and nose, otherwise this matter would be in trouble.
The two of them walked cautiously through the waterhole, this time with a madman leading the way, and it didn't take them two minutes to reach the other half of the stone wall.
As soon as Lei Kun got out of the pool, he quickly ran towards the shore.
He threw his combat suit on the ground and frowned secretly, these parasites were really annoying.
He then looked around and saw that it was still very dark, but there were emergency lights on the walls, which was clearly the inside of the Devil's base.
This is the best news for Lei Kun.
At this time, the madman also walked ashore, wrung out the clothes on his body, and said to Lei Kun: "Let's go! ”
Lei Kun retracted his gaze, walked over quickly, and walked side by side with the madman.
The two of them walked dozens of meters, and the lights became brighter and brighter, but they never saw a single person.
"Do you feel that the atmosphere here is a little weird?" Lei Kun asked in a low voice.
Although Lei Kun had deliberately lowered his voice, there was still an echo coming from this channel.
The madman nodded and said, "It's really quiet here, it's a little scary. ”
"I think we'd better be careful, the base of the Devil Organization won't be so easy to break into." Lei Kun said with a wary face.
In fact, the reason why Joyce was able to hand over the back mountain to the madman and others to defend so confidently was not only because he was able to break through from the front and get more benefits.
There is also the final point, that is, this cave is very dangerous, if you break into it rashly, you will definitely die.
In fact, Joyce had sent mercenaries to investigate this place before.
The mercenary found the passage behind the waterhole, but as the mercenary continued to explore, he suddenly discovered an astonishing scene.
A monster that he had never seen before, the green fangs looked like the demons of hell, and with great strength, the mercenaries had no strength to fight, so they could only shoot and retreat.
Although the mercenaries eventually escaped, they were also seriously wounded.
The parasites in the waterhole attach to the wounds when the mercenaries leave, burrow into the body, and multiply quickly.
By the time the mercenary is discovered, there is no cure.
In the end, it can only be killed, reducing the suffering on the mercenary.
It is precisely for this reason that Joyce is so reassured.
He knew that even if Lei Kun and the madman sensed the secret of the waterhole and sneaked into the past, these two people would definitely not be the opponents of the monster behind the waterhole.
At this time, the madman and Lei Kun had already advanced more than ten meters.
At this moment, both of them stopped at the same time, because both of them sensed a hint of danger at this moment.
