1329 Shadows of the Underground Base
It was pitch black in the cavern, and the strategist took out a lantern out of nowhere, illuminating the winding passage:
"Follow me."
"Don't play tricks." One of the guards who followed the strategist waved the scimitar in his hand: "Put your hands where we can see." β
"Yes." The strategist's voice trembled a little, as if he was very scared: "There may be monsters in the place where the 'Divine Fire' is stored, and I don't have combat power, so I ......"
"The soldiers will figure it out." The old man's tone was not good.
After entering through the narrow entrance, the passage inside is quite wide enough to accommodate five people walking side by side.
Despite the poor lighting conditions, the old man noticed the mottled blood stains on the stone wall, as well as three scratches that looked like sharp claws.
It is conceivable that if there is really a "divine fire" here, there will definitely be guards. So the question now is: can these soldiers under his command compete with the caretakers here?
The sound of chaotic footsteps echoed in the passageway, and dozens of figures cast on the wall by the light of the lantern kept shaking slightly. The old man put his right hand into his backpack, ready to take out his weapon and fight.
There was a putrid smell floating in the passage, but no bodies were to be seen, and no sound was heard other than footsteps.
The advisor was right, this place did look like an ancient monument. After walking for a while, the wall in front of you changed from rock to rusted metal, and some patterns could be seen on the wall, but they were unrecognizable due to the rust.
"How does it feel...... Sound familiar? β
Staring at the blurred and mutilated patterns on the metal walls, the old man felt a trace of doubt in his heart.
It looked like something was intertwined, and he made an X on the wall, and he always felt like he had seen it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a moment.
β¦β¦
"It's the mark of the Soviet Union."
Staring at the sickle and hammer pattern on the metal wall, Lin Chi let out a sigh of relief.
It seems that the location I found through the map is not wrong, this is indeed a secret Soviet base.
Since he had arrived on the chaotic Warscar Plateau, in addition to a few ordinary guards, there were also Ren You, who had just returned to normal, and Silver Frost, the "Flame Wind Slayer" who had installed a mechanical leg armor.
This special team easily infiltrated the chaotic battlefield of war scars, followed Lin Chi's map, and found the entrance to this ancient base.
At this time, Lin Chi's "underground exploration" progress was basically on par with that of the big old man. However, he knew very well that it would definitely not be so easy to find the legendary "Divine Fire".
Boom.
A dull thud floated through the passage ahead, shaking everyone's eardrums.
"Did anyone knock on the wall?" Shen Wenchong asked vigilantly.
"Nope." Yinshuang shook her head, and a pair of Danfeng eyes glanced at the metal wall beside her: "The voice came from the front." β
Her broken leg has not yet recovered, and she is now mostly walking with the help of a mechanical device.
Ever since the master engineer created the "steam engine", the mechanism that the old man originally regarded as a treasure has now become worthless things, and he has taken them away to give away.
"There's something wrong with this place." Ren You, whose face was swollen, finally revealed his pseudo-girl face that was promising in some aspects: "Although it is an ancient ruin, I can still sense something ...... in front of me."
"What did you find?" Lin Chi asked.
Ren You, who used to be the top assassin of the Brotherhood, is not even inferior to Moriya in terms of perception. After the lord's question, he immediately replied: "About fifty meters away, there may be an enemy hiding. But this feeling ......"
"Let's take care of it down." Shen Wenchong moved his muscles.
Shen Wenchong, who was wearing a full set of mechanical armor, was the one with the highest physical attribute value among all the people present. Whether it is Ren You or Yinshuang, they should not be his opponents in white-knuckle combat.
"I'll leave it to you." Lin Chi nodded: "Pay attention to safety, don't be reluctant." β
"Don't worry, young master." Shen Wenchong raised the corners of his mouth, his smile full of confidence.
Before the words fell, the guy had turned into a phantom and disappeared in front of everyone, leaving only two cold rays from the short knife.
"This kid...... Always so upright. β
Looking at the position where Shen Wenchong disappeared, Ren You shook his head with some hatred: "I hope he can be more mature." β
"Wouldn't that be nice?" Lin Chi said with a smile: "Compared to the guy who hides a knife in his smile, I prefer people like Shen Wenchong." β
"Ha, he's still very capableβ"
As soon as Yinshuang was halfway through his words, he saw Shen Wenchong rushing back again, his originally ruddy and shiny face, without a trace of blood at this time, as if he had turned into a zombie.
"What's wrong?" Ren You asked.
"That kind of enemy...... I can't handle it. β
Although he wanted to hide his emotions, his slightly trembling legs still exposed the fact that Shen Wenchong was very flustered. He stood behind the other guards and whispered, "Boss Ren You, that monster is handed over to you!" β
"You kid, you're ......"
Ren You let out a long sigh and pulled out the short-handled dagger hanging from his waist, and the blade emitted a blue light, as if an LED light was installed.
"Lord, please stay here for now, and I'll deal with the enemies in front." Ren You said that he was about to step forward.
"Why don't you go over together?" Lin Chi gave a new order: "I really want to see what kind of enemy it is, and I can scare Shen Wenchong like this." β
- It is an indisputable fact that this "young man" is afraid of supernatural phenomena. What made Lin Chi curious was that in the Soviet Union's nuclear weapons base, would there really be something like "ghosts"?
According to some rumors, the Soviet military insignia had a powerful exorcism effect, and no bull ghost or snake god could survive the light of the Soviets. Could it be that it is the souls of Soviet servicemen floating here?
Lin Chi was thinking about it when he suddenly noticed a few dark red footprints on the metal floor in front of him.
The site has long since rusted, and the footprints on the floor are inconspicuous. However, since the footprints will be this color, that is......
"It's human blood."
Ren You bent down, stretched out his right hand and touched the footprints: "The blood stains are not completely dry, they should have been left not long ago." β
"Will there be living people in such a place?"
With the help of "ancient night vision devices" made by master engineers, he stared at the metal wall in front of him. Lin Chigang's curiosity became stronger and stronger. He gestured to Ren You and Yinshuang, and the three of them slowly walked towards the metal boxes piled up in the clearing, and the guards immediately followed.
"What the hell do you see?" Silver Frost asked.
"That'...... Be...... Translucent monsters. Shen Wenchong, who was in shock, still walked at the back and was in charge of the "queen of the palace": "I'm sorry, I really can't cope with it......"
