Chapter 235: Inside the Cave
As the stairs descended, the group was soon blocked by an iron gate.
Luckily, there were traps on the side that could be opened, so after activating the traps, the gates opened very smoothly.
"Wow, it looks like Avery has built a seeping cave for herself." Feeling the cold wind blowing from the depths of the cave, Elena couldn't help but say humorously.
"In my opinion, it's more like building a nice tomb for myself." Laura laughed on the side.
As they spoke, the group walked through the floodgates.
"And it should be said that it is a big tomb with no entry and no exit, you see, this kind of road is usually a scene with no entry and no exit in the movie." Momoko also interjected when she saw this.
However, as soon as she finished speaking, there was a boom, and the floodgates behind everyone were instantly closed.
"Okay, your guess is really right, the Longmen Stone in the tomb has fallen, and we have no way out." Chen Fan looked at Peaches speechlessly and shrugged his shoulders.
"Eh~ I didn't know it would be like this, I guessed based on the plot of the movie, but I didn't expect Avery to be so uninnovative, and to make a secret passage is the same as the plot of the movie." Momoko shyly complained to Avery.
Looking at the appearance of the peach, Chen Fan couldn't help but complain: "It's because the plot of the movie is too old-fashioned, so old-fashioned that even the ancients of three hundred years can think of this kind of scene." ”
"Let's go, this hole is hundreds of years old, and many places are very old and look unsturdy, so it's better for us to go through it quickly." Laura led the way forward.
Soon, the group followed the passage to a room with a fork in the road.
"How do I get there? Avery is too bad, isn't he? To make a passage, you have to make it into a maze style. Looking at the three roads in front of him, Momoko complained about Avery again.
"Look, follow the footprints on the ground, someone has already led the way for us, as long as there are no footprints to return, then the pit must be the right path." Nate said, pointing to the messy footprints on the ground.
"Yes, Leif has already waded through the thunder for us, but it has saved us a lot of things." Chen Fan couldn't help but say with a smile.
With the footprints on the ground, the group moved forward again.
Suddenly, a muffled sound came from one direction of the cave.
"I packed the ticket, it must be Natien's people, they can't think of any other way to open the way for these holes and the like except to use explosives to open the way." Nate looked at everyone with a sworn expression.
"It's just us here, let's go, if these stupid donkeys blow up this place with explosives, we'll all be buried alive here." Yelena said speechlessly.
The others weren't talking, but their steps couldn't help but quicken.
Soon, everyone came to a strange room.
From the layout of the room, it seems that the floor is paved with some wooden floors, some of which are no longer there.
From the empty floor, it looked hollow underneath, and there were countless spaces that had just been erected below.
"Be careful, this kind of trap is found in many tombs, and if you step on the wrong floor, it will fall, and then you will be skewered into meat skewers, you see, just like him." Laura pointed to the floor in front of her and explained to the group.
And the one she used as a negative teaching material was a shoreline mercenary, maybe it was the unlucky ghost who had fallen down from Leif and others who had passed here before.
"Not only that, but you see, there are explosives on the pillars that support the floor, and if you step on it wrong, it will explode." Nate said solemnly, pointing to some support posts tied with explosives.
"Okay, don't analyze it, it's all over the ground, just follow it, so many speculations." Chen Fan walked onto the wooden floors speechlessly.
"Eh~ I forgot, professional habits." Hearing Chen Fan's complaint, Laura couldn't help but say embarrassedly.
Following the footprints, everyone quickly passed through the room.
Luck was quickly exhausted, and not long after passing through the room, the footprints disappeared through a hole.
"The footprints are gone, what should I do?" Momoko said, pointing to the footprints on the ground.
"No, it's not that it's gone, it's that after they passed, the cave collapsed, so the footprints and passages were buried." Laura shook her head and pointed to the passage.
"Come and help me lift it up and see if I can lift it up and get through." Nate came closer and took a look, and saw that the passage was not completely blocked.
Chen Fan stepped forward and grabbed the wooden board that was pressed by the stone and put a handle on Nate.
As the two men began to exert their strength, the plank suddenly rattled overwhelmedly.
Rumble~
In the end, the planks failed to live up to the expectations of the group, breaking in an instant, and a large number of stones completely buried the passage.
"Damn, we'll have to find another way." Looking at the passage in front of him, Nate said angrily.
As soon as he finished speaking, another muffled sound came from the far side of the cave, and with it, a large amount of dust fell from the top of the cave.
"Hurry up and find your way, I feel that with the methods of those people, this hole will definitely collapse." Glancing at the surrounding environment, Chen Fan urged.
The so-called number of people is powerful, and the road was quickly found, it was a passage built on the ceiling, and I don't know who dug it out, but it was just enough for a person to get through.
Following the opening, the group soon came to another room again.
Jumping from the ceiling, everyone was startled.
I saw that in this room, countless people's arm bones were hanging from above.
"Winner, take my money!" Searching for the light, Laura muttered to a wooden sign that had been erected on the wall.
"Oh, damn it, Avery has made no secret of his madness by this point, and has done such a cruel thing." Looking at the scene in front of him, Nate couldn't help but say indignantly.
"Don't say it, this makes me feel more infiltrated, get out of here." Elena said as she rubbed her arms together.
This is a brand new passage, and there are no footprints of Leif and others on the ground, and there are no people who have traveled in front of them, so everyone can only rely on themselves.
And the unexpected happened very quickly.
Nate, who was leading the way at the front, seemed to have discovered something when he passed through a passage, and the moment he stepped into the passage, he suddenly turned around and rolled towards everyone.
The moment he rushed back, a violent explosion accompanied by fierce flames erupted through the passage.
"What's going on?" Chen Fan helped Nate up and looked at Nate suspiciously.
"It's a trap, it seems that Avery really doesn't welcome any uninvited guests, especially those who hit him with the idea of treasure." The inner man looked at the dark passage and said with palpitations.
Fortunately, he found out early just now, otherwise he would have shed his skin even if he didn't die in the violent explosion just now.
Moving on, everyone soon found out what the previous trap was.
On both sides of the passage, some dead bodies are tied to both sides of the passage, and bombs are strapped to the bodies of the dead bodies, and as soon as someone approaches, the bombs on these dead bodies will be triggered, and then the bombs will explode along with the dead bodies.
Looking at the dead bodies in front of them, everyone couldn't help but feel Avery's madness, they didn't expect him to do such a perverted thing.
But after knowing the principle of these traps, it is not very difficult to crack.
After using some decoys to detonate these bombs, the trap was easily cracked by the crowd.
After passing through this passage, the group came to a room again.
It is similar to the previous room with the arm bones hanging from it, except that this room is the entire sternum of the person hanging from it.
"How many did Avery kill? It's full of these bony wind chimes. Momoko couldn't help but feel her scalp tingle as she looked at the scene in front of her.
After passing through the room, the group walked down the passage again, and the rest of the road was filled with corpse bombs.
"Avery is such a pervert, he's completely made himself Egyptian, it's just that these mummified guys, you know, they didn't do it at all." In the passage, Nate came to a dead body with no bomb on it, and was massively disposed of.
By the light, everyone finally saw the traps.
They were all corpses wrapped in strips of cloth and tied to pillars, and judging by the signs of struggle of the corpses, these people were dead and alive before they were trapped up.
Moving forward, the group soon saw a bright light appear at the end of the passage.
Walking quickly to the light, he found that it was a light stick, and footprints appeared on the ground again.
"Hey, luckily, we've found Leif again, and we won't have to find our own way after that." Chen Fan pointed to the footprints on the ground and smiled.
Then the crowd followed the footprints and marched again.
"Wait, there's a situation ahead!" Suddenly, Laura stopped Nate, who was walking in front.
Alerted by Laura, Nate stopped in vigilance.
However, as he gazed into the darkness ahead, he found nothing.
"What's wrong? What's the situation? Elena looked at Laura suspiciously.
"There's an ambush ahead." Laura said solemnly.
Regarding Laura's discovery, Chen Fan listened carefully, and sure enough, he really let him hear some subtle breathing sounds.
"I didn't find anything." Nate said confusedly.
"No, didn't you notice the sound of rats all the way before? When you get here, it's gone. Chen Fan shook his head and said to Nate.
After receiving Chen Fan's reminder, Nate suddenly found that it was really like what Chen Fan said, originally everyone walked all the way, and there were rats everywhere that were frightened and scurrying, but after arriving here, these things were indeed missing.
"Prepare for battle!" Chen Fan said in a deep voice to everyone.
With Chen Fan's order, everyone took out the weapons on their bodies one after another and became vigilant.
Laura, unfurling her bow and arrows, shot a condensed burst arrow into the distant passage.
With the faint light of the arrow, everyone vaguely saw the figure on the other side of the passage.
Rumble!
Arrows exploded like streamers on the other side of the passage.
Then came the screams of the enemy.
And the shoreline mercenaries who saw that they had been discovered also knew that they had been discovered, so they were not hiding, holding their guns and starting to pull the trigger towards everyone.
Violent gunfire rang out in this cave that was not known how many meters underground.
The location of these mercenaries' ambushes was very well chosen.
It happened to be in a cave at the end of the passage, and once everyone walked out of the passage just now, they would be caught off guard by them.
But fortunately, Laura found out in time.
So everyone leaned against a corner of the passage that connected to the cave and began to attack these mercenaries.
There is no need to aim at all, and the group can deal massive damage as long as they shoot into the opposite cave without thinking.
After losing a large number of manpower, the mercenaries found that they couldn't help Chen Fan and the others, so they threw grenades at everyone very viciously.
And at this moment, Chen Fan also discovered the other party's actions.
For the brain-dead behavior of these mercenaries, Chen Fan was immediately annoyed.
These silly forks have absolutely no idea what the results of using grenades in this terrain will be.
Looking at the grenade flying over, majestic mental power gushed out from Chen Fan's body.
Controlling the grenade flying in the dark, Chen Fan floated it in mid-air, and then threw it back.
Rumble!
Rumble!
Rumble!
Numerous explosions rang out from the opposing camp.
The whole cavern began to shake.
After a series of fires, the opposite side finally fell silent.
For the previous scenario, among the people present, only Nate and Elena were confused.
What's the situation? Are these mercenaries crazy?
However, this question is destined to remain in the hearts of the two of them.
After the explosion, the cave built by Avery withstood the test and did not collapse.
This made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.
