Chapter 362: The Ruins of the Atlantean Civilization (1)
Today's Canglong Island, although it is the middle of the night, it is still brightly lit. With the basic defense of the perimeter, Canglong basically won't break in. Lao Jiu, who had just reached Canglong Island, ran directly to the north.
At this time, Lao Jiu almost went with all his might, his face was full of surprise, and the whole person looked extremely excited. Due to his speed, there were faint afterimages in the air. Soon Lao Jiu was on top of a collapsed giant pit and saw Bai Ruyu dressed in white.
"Bobo...... Yuyu, you are really the lucky star of Brother Jiu, Brother Jiu will definitely spoil you tonight! Before Bai Ruyu could react, she was copied into Lao Jiuyi's arms, and then Lao Jiu was a crazy kiss.
"Yikes! You're going to die! Saliva was pouring all over my face, and I was sick to death. Let me go! Bai Ruyu slapped Lao Jiu's chest angrily, pretending to be angry and shouting.
"Hey...... Brother, this is a little too excited. Lao Jiu smiled shamelessly, then put his arm around her, looked at the big pit below and asked, "This is where you said below?" ”
"What do you think?" Bai Ruyu glanced at Lao Jiu and said, "This is a landslide caused by construction, and at first I thought it was a sinkhole." But the ones who went down brought this. ”
Bai Ruyu said, and from the space ring, a stone tablet appeared. Lao Jiu took it and looked at it, and there were some strange words on it. But fortunately, the system can translate, and when he saw it in person, he smiled in surprise again.
“…… We were forced to hide underground, the unknown disaster came too violently, we thought that with the strength of Atlantis, we would be able to face any disaster, but we were wrong, this seems to be a judgment of Atlantis civilization......"
This is the system, for the translation on the mutilated stele. It is also from this passage that Bai Ruyu confirms the fact that this is the ruins of Atlantis. This is also the reason why Lao Jiu rushed over as soon as he received the news.
"I've already had people investigate, and below is an underground complex that occupies almost half of the area below Canglong Island. And according to the appearance of the ruins, as well as the hints of the inscriptions, I am completely sure that the following is the ruins left by the Atlantean civilization! Bai Ruyu looked at Lao Jiu and said.
"This game system is really powerful, we were pretending to be descendants of Atlantis some time ago, and now we have given me a whole Atlantis ruins. Let's go down and see what's left inside. Lao Jiu was in a good mood, and jumped directly into the pit with Bai Ruyu in his arms.
The pit was only a few dozen meters deep, and when it landed, the two of them were in a dilapidated hall. The architectural style of the main hall is full of the atmosphere of ancient civilization. In the main hall, there were only a few scattered dry bones, and two passages leading to the distance.
"I've had people explore these two passages, one of which leads to the sea, but the exit is blocked. The other leads to the center of the island and is still being explored. Bai Ruyu pointed to the two passages and said.
"Since there is no exploration value over there, let's explore the center, I also want to see what civilization is left behind in Atlantis." Lao Jiu was a little expectant, and pulled Bai Ruyu towards the passage to the interior.
However, they were soon stopped by a stone gate, which was guarded by several soldiers of the Easy Empire. On either side of the stone gate, there were two dead bones, which looked to be dead for some age, and even the weapons in their hands and the clothes on their bodies were almost completely corroded.
"I was afraid that there would be some unknown danger or something that would happen, so I didn't let people in, and I waited for you to come and explore." Bai Ruyu glanced at Shimen and said.
"Okay, then I'll go in and have a look, you wait here first, lest anything happen and hurt you." Lao Jiu smiled slightly, and then said on Bai Ruyu's shoulder.
"It's just a game, what's there to be afraid of." Bai Ruyu rolled her eyes, but walked straight towards the stone gate. But Lao Jiu was a little speechless and hurriedly followed.
"Huh? Can't even push? When Lao Jiu pushed towards the stone gate, he found that the stone gate did not move at all. If Lao Jiu's strength can't push open the stone gate, then he can only destroy it by brute force.
"Take a closer look, this stone door should be retracted to the right, you look at the gap in the edge." Bai Ruyu said speechlessly.
"Uh...... It must be your beauty that has affected my IQ. Lao Jiu said with some embarrassment, and then observed carefully.
"Flim tongue!" Bai Ruyu smiled charmingly, and then said, "This should be controlled by the mechanism, but judging from the two dry bones at the door, the stone door should be locked from the inside, and it seems that it can only be broken by brute force." ”
"Alright then, let me try." Lao Jiu pulled Bai Ruyu back a few steps, then took out the god-killing spear, and poked it directly at the stone gate in front of him.
"Boom...... I'll it! "I thought that the stone gate that could be broken with a single shot, but I actually blocked Lao Jiu's shot, not to mention, the power of the shock also shook Lao Jiu back a few steps.
After a burst of dust, Lao Jiu found that the so-called stone door was all metal inside. And the outside looks like a layer of stone clothing wrapped in rust. And Lao Jiu's blow also shook off a large number of stone skins on the door, revealing the metal layer inside.
Looking at the place where he shot just now, it was only more than three inches pierced by the tip of the gun. This made Lao Jiu's eyes widen, and with an incredible expression, he looked at the metal door in front of him. But soon, his eyes shone with joy.
"An ordinary portal, the hardness can reach the level of why equipment, it seems that we really sent it this time!" After Lao Jiu said happily, he put away the spear in his hand, then took out the Dingqin sword and began to cut it against the metal door.
Lao Jiu just cut a three-foot square gap in the door, so that people could enter. And the metal he cut was sent to the ore refining place on the island, so that those grandmaster-level craftsmen could study the synthesis of this metal.
Behind the stone gate, there is still a corridor. At this time, Bai Ruyu was holding a night pearl and followed behind Lao Jiu. On the walls of the corridor, there are many paintings, which seem to record the civilization of Atlantis.
It's a pity that the system doesn't have any translation of these murals, so Lao Jiu can only make a rough guess, guessing that these murals are recording some major events in the history of Atlantis.
"Maybe there's some important information hidden in there, and we can't afford to miss it. I have already informed Sister Feng and asked him to find someone to come over tomorrow to study. Looking at the murals, Bai Ruyu said a little seriously.
"yes, if you look at this picture, it seems that they built a new warship, and everyone is celebrating." Lao Jiu pointed to one of the murals and said, "It's a pity that there are no text prompts on it, so you can only rely on thinking and reasoning." ”
"There seems to be a big hall in front, let's go and have a look." At this time, Bai Ruyu looked ahead and said.
When Lao Jiu and Bai Ruyu entered the big point, they found that it was like a living room, with a rockery in the middle, surrounded by some resting benches. On the benches, there are people lying and people sitting, and there is even a couple leaning on each other, and in front of them there is a child.
It's a pity that all these have become dry bones, but they have maintained the last posture of their lives, as if their death happened in an instant. Such a strange scene surprised the two of them.
The "......uproar" may have been the arrival of the two of them, which broke some kind of balance, causing all the dry bones to begin to collapse in an instant, and countless dust began to splash in the entire hall. At the same time, a peculiar smell began to permeate the hall, making people unspeakably uncomfortable.
"Whew......" Lao Jiuyi shook the cloak behind him, took Bai Ruyu into his arms, and then used the wide cloak to protect her whole body.
"You get out first, it seems that there should be no danger here. Send a team of soldiers down and get this out first. Lao Jiu frowned, took Bai Ruyu back to the entrance of the passage, and then explained to her.
"Well, I thought I could explore the treasure with you, but it seems that there is no thrill at all, only the smell of dead corpses." Bai Ruyu covered her mouth and nose and said with an uncomfortable expression.
After Bai Ruyu went out, Lao Jiu began to explore alone. Around the hall, there are different corridors, Lao Jiu chose one at random, and found that it was the living area, and there were stone houses on the left and right.
Some doors are open, some things are closed. These are ordinary metal doors, through observation, Lao Jiu found that there is a hidden plug behind these doors, which is used to lock the door.
So for those closed doors, Lao Jiu also used the Dingqin Sword to destroy the internal door bolts one by one, and then opened the doors of each stone room, so that the team sent in by Bai Ruyu began to clean up all the stone rooms.
Due to the long period of closure, there is actually no dust in it, and the most is the dry bones that can be seen everywhere, and the strange smell formed because of the lack of air circulation. The smell was so bad that even Lao Jiu was a little unbearable.
As Lao Jiu continued to explore, he found that this underground space was extraordinarily large, occupying almost half of Canglong Island. And the place where Lao Jiu entered was just the edge of the underground building, which seemed to be a vent.
It took more than a day for Lao Jiu to find out a rough idea of the underground building. And the closer you get to the center of the island, the farther it seems to be from the surface. In order to speed up the exploration, Lao Jiu could only jump to the important area to explore first, hoping to find something.
Finally, he made a crucial discovery in the central square of the underground building. Because in the middle of the square, there is a huge statue. And when Lao Jiu approached this statue, there was a systematic prompt.
