The steamed bun writes slowly, and it has to be changed at least twice when it's finished, and the small changes in the middle are not counted, so there will be mistakes in this way, which is really embarrassing.

At the bottom of the Great Rift Valley, on the way to the ruins, Old Man Mu enthusiastically introduced some things about Sun Town and the ruins of the Great Rift Valley to the executors. After listening to it, Li Gang also knew about the ruins and the matter of Sun Town.

The reason why Sun Town is so lively is that a significant number of people who want to go to the ruins have to pass through the road behind it to reach the ruins, not only in Asia but also in other parts of the world. Therefore, there are more types of foreigners to meet in Sun Town than in the United Nations. Of course, it is also possible to put it another way, it is precisely because people have to pass through here to go to the ruins that there is Sun Town.

Why do so many people have to walk the way from Suntown? It stands to reason that the ruins are so big, and the Great Rift Valley is so big, where can you go from there? Actually, not really.

Speaking of which, we have to mention the geographical location of the ruins of the Great Rift Valley, although the ruins are located in the Great Rift Valley, they are located on the east side of the rift valley, and there is a strait between the cliff wall of the rift valley on the west side, which has become a natural barrier blocking the path of explorers of the ruins of the western half of the Eurasian continent, and it is insurmountable.

Why is it insurmountable? Because the strait is connected to the ocean, there are countless powerful mutant creatures in the strait, which makes the strait extremely dangerous, even a fly does not want to pass through the strait, and the aircraft carrier is not enough to stuff the teeth of the sea mutant creatures. So if you want to take the waterway and go directly across the strait to reach the ruins, it is no different from looking for death!

It's a good idea to fly over the Great Rift Valley, depending on where you're flying from. If you cross the Great Rift Valley by flying machine far away from the ruins, as long as you pick the right time and then assist the necessary precautions, you can basically successfully cross it. Eighty percent of the success rate is not low, and the remaining two percent are fed to the flying mutant creatures that live around the cliffs. That's why it's said that you can choose a good time, place, and then auxiliary measures, such as two baits or something. It's okay to fly at high altitudes, as long as you can avoid predators that like to hover high. But if you want to fly directly to the ruins, or fly near the ruins, then I'm sorry, and report to Hades honestly.

There are two reasons why the sky near the ruins has become a death zone, one is that the sky above and near the ruins is densely covered with flying objects known as "weeping ducks". These flying objects were released from the ruins, each about two meters long, shaped like a large bird, but their whole body was made up of something like an insect exoskeleton, and from the information available so far, they were not living creatures but artificial defensive weapons. It has a long, flattened beak that resembles a duck, and always whines like a baby crying when it flies, so it is named the Crying Wind Duck by the explorers. The nasty name for it also entails the Explorers' disgust with it, as it is so hated by the Evolvers who explore the ruins. Tens of thousands of Weeping Wind Ducks hovered around and around the ruins 24 hours a day, attacking anything that entered the ruins' airspace or approached the ruins from the air. There are two types of attacks, one is a physical attack, which relies on superb flight speed to pierce the attack with the indestructible beak of a duck or cut with sharp wings. The other is an energy attack, the duck's beak is able to release a long-range energy beam, although the firing frequency is very low, according to observation, the fastest is determined to be once per minute, but the power is several times stronger than the Sidewinder missile. Coupled with their numbers, speed, and agility, it was impossible to break through the air defenses of the Weeping Wind Duck.

Well, take 10,000 steps back, even if you take shit luck, you successfully break through the air defense of the Crying Wind Duck, and get close to the sky above the ruins, and the second reason why the ruins can't get close from the air is waiting for you! There are 124 pillars scattered around the edges of each layer of the ruins, and they resemble anti-aircraft guns. As soon as something approaches or moves anywhere from the ruins and reaches a three-hundred-meter limit, the pillar will immediately emit a beam of energy to evaporate it. There have been attempts to release drones* from the ruins, and without exception they have been vaporized by the beam.

With the current technology and strength of human beings, it is impossible to break through these two defensive measures.

You can't walk on the sea, you can't go in the sky, you can only go on the earth. The location of the ruins is located right next to the strait at the bottom of the eastern rift, which means that it can only be reached from the bottom of the eastern rift along the north and south of the cliff. As a result, there are only two surface roads leading to the ruins, one in the direction of Sun Town in the south of the ruins, and the other in the direction of Windstone Town in the north of the ruins. It's about the same difficulty in both directions, but the road in Suntown is a little easier, so there are more people walking. Therefore, even if they fly from the west side of the Great Rift Valley, they only have the same qualifications as the people from the east side of the Rapid Valley. It's no surprise to see teams and evolutionaries from all over the world rushing to the ruins on the way.

According to the agreement, Old Man Mu brought the group to the so-called Big Rock Forest. He took the remaining half of the commission but didn't leave, ready to wait and see if any evolved who had finished exploring would need to lead the way back. The direction of the back and forth is easy to confirm, so high cliffs are blind people can't see, just afraid of going to some places that shouldn't go, and there is a person who is familiar with the road conditions to lead the way with a higher level of safety. Anyway, the commission of a guide like Old Man Mu is not expensive, and sometimes those explorers who return can give a little ruins and garbage at will.

Looking at the large rock forest composed of countless tall giant rock pillars in front of him, Yu Qi gave a brief introduction to everyone.

The Great Rock Forest is an area made up of many huge rock pillars. The pillars are 500 meters tall on average, as if skyscrapers are crowded together, and only the narrow gaps left between the rock pillars can be passed, and once you walk in, it is like walking into an oversized labyrinth, and if you are not careful, you will get lost. Although they are narrow gaps, they are actually more than two meters wide. On the top of the Great Rock Forest, there are a large number of flying mutant creatures, these are real mutant creatures, not crying wind ducks. Not only above the Great Rock Forest, but also in the Rock Forest, these various mutated creatures also live, making this large rock forest that surrounds the ruins in addition to the strait as the first barrier to the ruins. That's right, it's a barrier and not a natural one. How could such a violent crustal movement that produced the Great Rift Valley produce such a relatively neat rock column, and it is very coincidental that it surrounds the ruins. Whether it's left over from ancient times or for some reason, the Great Rock Forest is the first gateway to the ruins, and every evolutionary who wants to explore the ruins must traverse to reach the ruins.

Stepping into the Great Rock Forest, Yu Qi reminded everyone loudly: "From now on, everyone is tense up, and crossing the Great Rock Forest is the first step in the exploration of the ruins. This tall rocky area is a large labyrinth in which you lose your sense of direction and your compass fails, allowing you to move forward only with electronic guidance signals from vehicles behind. Here we must remind everyone that after entering the Great Rock Forest, everyone must follow closely and do not be left alone. Because in addition to the many dangerous mutated creatures in this rocky jungle, the traces and marks left in it will disappear automatically, and it is difficult to reunite once you get lost in it. And don't make a loud noise, as it will attract the mutated creatures above the rock forest. As long as you pay attention to these issues, it is easy to traverse the Great Rock Forest. Do you understand? ”

"Yes!" And they answered in unison.

Yu Qi arranged the executor team to open the way in front to facilitate the handling of emergencies. Tianlong's people were behind, and five other executors were specially assigned to join them. After the distribution was completed, a group of more than 50 people entered the Great Rock Forest.

The Great Rock Forest is a huge labyrinth, and without guidance, 100% will get lost.

Considering that Li Gang, who was carrying the SS-class mutant creature Inhuman Phantom, might be able to detect danger in a more timely manner and have a higher ability to protect himself, he let him explore the way at the forefront. Because the more powerful mutated creatures tend to perceive danger, there is no doubt about the power and keen perception of illusions.

It's just that for the early detection of danger, Li Gang is very skeptical that tofu flower has this function. Because most of the dangers are not dangerous to the illusion itself, maybe even if it finds something abnormal, it probably won't bother to pay attention. Therefore, Li Gang, who was regarded as a scout, had no choice but to work hard and observe the surroundings carefully.

The group shuttled among the dense boulder pillars in the general direction pointed out on the watch's communicator, and through the observation along the way, Li Gang found something interesting.

The thickness of the huge pillars in the Great Rock Forest is very similar, the difference is less than one meter, and this gap is caused by the unevenness of the surface of the pillars, that is, they themselves are basically the same thickness. I dare not say that Li Gang was the first to discover it, but it is certainly not noticed by very few people. Because these giant pillars are more than 20 meters in diameter, people standing in front of them can only see a small part of them, and it is difficult to find that they are the same thickness unless they are measured next to each other with a long ruler. Li Gang was able to find out because in addition to being an undisciplined teaser, he also had a brain that was comparable to a computer to some extent. With just one glance, the thickness of the pillar can be calculated by the curvature of the edge of the pillar.

Then there is the distance between the rock pillars and the rock pillars. All the pillars seen along the way are free-standing, no two or more pillars are close together, and the distance between any two giant pillars is not less than two meters and no more than ten meters.

From these two points alone, it can be determined that this large rock forest is definitely not a natural formation. What kind of force formed a landscape of this magnitude? It's full of curiosity.

Just as Li Gang was thinking, a terrible scream faintly came from a distance, and everyone couldn't help but stop. Upon closer listening, there were not only screams but also voices calling for help, as if an exploration team was in distress.

Yu Qiyi raised his hand to signal the team to stop, and then said to Zhu Hong: "Did you find anything?" ”

Zhu Hong closed his eyes and sensed it, pointed to the left rear of the direction of the team, and said uncertainly: "There is a strong spiritual power in this direction about two hundred meters, but the spiritual power is very chaotic, and it is impossible to distinguish whether it is a human or a mutated creature, or both." ”

"What to do, let's go over and take a look, it seems that someone is in distress." Although Liu Jiao usually looks cold, she is actually a person who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside.

"Don't!" Song Cheng, who had been hiding in the middle of the team, hurriedly stopped: "Let's not be nosy, what if it's a powerful mutant beast, wouldn't it be a ride on us?" It's wise to get out of here now. ”

Yu Qiluo groaned and said, "If we can't even deal with the slightest danger here, what else do we want to explore the ruins?" Now it's all there, now go to the rescue of the explorers in distress. ”

"Wait a minute." Song Cheng stopped again and said with a smile: "I said Captain Yu, otherwise, wouldn't it be better for us to go to the rescue of some people, and wait for the rest here." ”

"Nope." Yu Qi simply rejected Song Cheng's proposal, and said to Song Cheng unceremoniously: "Everyone must act together, here I am the commander, if Mr. Song feels that there is any objection, you can react with your boss." Otherwise, let's immediately dissolve the partnership and do our own thing, and see if your boss will agree. ”

Song Cheng saw Yu Qi's resolute attitude, wiped the cold sweat on his fat head and said with a smile: "Whereever, everything is up to the captain." ”

Hearing Song Cheng say this, Yu Qi smiled and patted his fleshy shoulder: "Mr. Song, although we are cooperating, but since I am the conductor, then you can mention it to me if you have any opinions, it is quite a bad habit to point fingers, I hope to pay attention to it in the future." ”

"Understood, understood." Although Song Cheng was reluctant, he could only smile and follow the team in the direction where the voice came from.

The reason why Yu Qi was unusual, did not hesitate to turn his face with Song Cheng, and even had a bit of an arbitrary taste, was because he had to do it. You must know that this exploration team, excluding the Tianlong group, was improvised by the executors of various sub-bureaus. These executors are all outstanding in the original sub-bureau, and most of them are the captains of the executors of the sub-bureau, and they are inevitably arrogant and arrogant, and no one will obey anyone. Without any selection, Yu Qi, the captain of the executor who was at the same level as them, was appointed as the commander-in-chief, although he didn't say it, but in fact he was inevitably unconvinced. If you can't fully trust Qi's command, then the execution of orders in action will naturally be doubted and discounted. At some critical moments, the slightest hesitation can make a big difference. This is a taboo for soldiers.

Song Cheng didn't listen to the command today, if Yu Qi was relieved, then there would be other people who didn't listen to the command and acted according to their own ideas, and in the end, no one in the team listened to the command and became a pile of loose sand, it wasn't to be messed up. So this head can't be opened, Yu Qi is suddenly so stern because he doesn't want to have his own opinions and don't listen to the command in the next action. And to save people, you can also take a look at the level of these people by the way, increase the tacit understanding of the team, why not kill two birds with one stone. If you really can't even deal with this little thing, then tell Yu Qi that you can go back. The danger inside the ruins is by no means comparable to the outside.
