Chapter 144: Helpless (I)
"There's a little signal here...... But...... It seems to be very weak...... "Crussell had a plan, he knew that Wang Xingguo would not let them get off the line, he pressed the walkie-talkie, "I think we should try it at a high place." ”
Wang Xingguo looked at the time, it was almost 2 o'clock, and the satellite was about to cross his head, if he couldn't get through, he would have to wait for tomorrow, and the longer the time dragged on, the more unfavorable it would be for himself.
"Wait until we come back and meet." Wang Xingguo led the team to explore the road in front, Crossell deliberately slowed down, and now the two teams have pulled away more than 100 meters, Wang Xingguo does not know Crossell's conspiracy.
"Hmm...... Time is a little tight, I'll go up first, and you follow. Without waiting for Wang Xingguo's answer, Crussell took Kerry and Sharjah through the jungle area and climbed up the hillside.
"Crussell...... Crossell ...... Don't turn to ...... casually" Wang Xingguo called on the walkie-talkie, but Krussell didn't respond at all.
"Damn...... They turned, and we turned back to chase! Wang Xingguo felt that the situation seemed to be starting to be a little bad, and he beckoned Chen Badai and others.
Wang Xingguo felt that he had overlooked a small detail, and now that he remembered that Xia Ruobing was right, Crussell seemed to have deliberately separated the two teams, and he only considered how to find the signal quickly, but he did not take into account that this team was not an army in the first place, and everyone had no unified idea, so he should arrange a Chen Badai or Sherpa next to Crussell to control their movements in a timely manner.
But now it was too late to say anything, Wang Xingguo had to find them quickly, they said that they wanted to go to a high place, but they did not tell where to turn.
It is normal for a team that does not obey the command in a unified manner, but Wang Xingguo is already trying to maintain this fragile relationship, but he cannot force Krussell to obey his command, perhaps in their minds, Wang Xingguo is just a security consultant, and any security problem can be solved, but they have not considered how much trouble their unprofessionalism will bring to themselves and even the team.
……
"I said that...... I said ...... See...... Here they are...... Crossell ...... History is about to be rewritten...... I'll never be the same professor who gets teased by students in class anymore...... Those who once looked down on me, be prepared to tremble under my feet...... Yes...... Haha......" After climbing up to the high ground panting, Kerry saw a flat area in front of his eyes, and he was so excited that he couldn't care about panting, and shouted frantically!
The area is surrounded by trees, and it seems that the cannibals have gone to great lengths to cut down the towering trees for the sake of the new land of Marumazu! It was larger than the valley and was on the high ground of the jungle, which confirmed Kerry's suspicion that the cannibals were praying to the gods for forgiveness with a higher ritual.
Krussell was already shocked by this area, judging by what he saw in front of him, Kerry was right, this was the new Marumazu, at the "entrance", there were stone statues of two kneeling men, although the carvings were crude, but this was already the best that the poor tools of the cannibals could do, the stone statues were on their knees, their hands high in the air, their heads were exaggerated at an angle to the sky, their mouths were wide open, but their eyes were closed, as if they were making a pious prayer.
"The direction is to the west...... Not...... That's right...... The direction is towards the west. Kerry circled around the statue twice, more sure of his guess.
"Why face the West?" Crussell asked.
"Maybe they think the West is the most sacred place." Kerry thought for a moment and said, "Hmm...... The island is separated from the western continent, I think it should be......"
"Alright, you can get started." Crussell didn't think it made much sense to dwell on the North and the West, and now it was up to Kerry to decipher the jerky symbols and images as quickly as possible, and the more information he had, the more he could drive the collectors crazy.
"Guidelines...... This is the guiding ......" Kerry saw the stone statue behind six stone pillars, each about three meters high, and the words carved on one of the stone pillars, Kerry was excited to see what he wanted, "They are praying to the Almighty Oro for the god Oro to return here with the Holy Spirit Messenger again, guide them on the way to heaven, and take their souls away...... Not...... There is also a text of prayer...... Roughly that means...... Almighty Aulo Celestial, we have fallen at your feet and trembled, the sins of our ancestors...... Belch...... The sins of the ancestors? I'm not sure ...... here," Kerry whispered the text of the moment.
"I think they were referring to the separation of the continent and the drifting of the islands...... Oh...... Poor people, who still do not know that sooner or later this island will be torn apart by the earth's crust...... Their only remaining homes will be gone...... Kerry said lamentingly.
"Huge flames rose from the ground...... Black smoke obscured the sky...... There is no sun...... There is no moon...... The starry sky is no longer shining...... The gods were angry...... The flames flow like a river...... roared and rushed to the sea...... Everything disappeared into flames...... Countless ...... fell from the sky Belch...... Yan Demon ...... Devouring the woods...... Countless creatures are wailing and fleeing...... But there is no escape...... It lasted for ...... Hmm, I think it means many years...... The servants of the gods lived on corpses...... Then black raindrops fell from the sky, and the earth was dyed with black death...... The earth trembled...... Separate...... Oh my God, this record is horrible......" Kerry felt creepy as he read the text...... The stone mural behind the text shows this tragic scene of hell on earth, above the mural is a thick cloud, but above the cloud is a radiant light, and a flying saucer-shaped object is suspended there, releasing death......
"Is this the ancient mass extinction?" Kerry said in amazement. The text is clearly a supervolcanic eruption, and there was indeed a supervolcano eruption in ancient times, which killed 95% of all living things on Earth...... But Kerry found it incredible.
"Maybe it's the ...... caused by an asteroid collision," Crussell speculated.
"Whatever caused the ...... That's long enough...... At that time, human beings ...... Maybe it's that humanity is still struggling in Africa! Kerry said.
"Hmm...... Are they older than Neanderthals? Crussell got excited.
"This has always been controversial...... For example, the prehistoric flood recorded in the Bible...... Not...... There is also the war that resembles the use of nuclear weapons recorded in Indian legends...... But whatever...... The one we're discovering now is older than they are...... It's too long to imagine......" Kerry rubbed his hands excitedly.
"Crussell...... Crossell ...... Please report your location......" After Wang Xingguo turned around, he never found Crussell and others, and Crussell did not leave any signs and instructions, Wang Xingguo kept calling and did not answer, his tone was a little anxious......
"Hmm...... We're ...... in the Heights," Crossell felt like he should talk back.
"Which highland?" Wang Xingguo was a little speechless, there are several highlands nearby.
"Uh...... A very flat plateau...... Not...... An open meadow can be seen from a gap in the jungle...... Come up here......" Crussell didn't know how to report his location, so he had to say vaguely.
"Don't move...... I'm going to look for you. ”
"Okay...... Okay......" Crussell felt that even if Wang Xingguo came, he couldn't change anything, and he now needed Wang Xingguo's professional tactics to protect himself.
"Hey...... Come and see...... Here...... It's different from what we see...... "While Kerry was leaning in front of the stone wall to study floods, volcanoes, and prehistoric civilizations, Sharjah Jean wandered around casually, and he was surprised to find that there were still corpses on the stone platforms, and he covered his nose and shouted to Krussell.
"It seems that their prayers are not working......" Kerry saw the corpse lying on the stone platform, but to his surprise was that the corpse was not decomposing, as if it had shrunk down, and the smell of the corpse was not strong......
"There's still ...... There's a ...... there too. Not...... There were ...... everywhere" Sharjah took a look around, and he found that there were corpses lying on almost every stone platform, some of them were so dry that they were not like words, some were half decomposed, but the stench of corpses in the whole cemetery was not very strong.
"They have a fairly high level of embalming technology!" Kerry looked at the corpse, bewildered, "Something like a mummy...... They first went through dehydration...... And then put the body here...... After the soul ascends to heaven, is it really like Angel said, wrapped up and buried? On such a humid and hot island, why did they go to such great lengths to make corpses? ”
