Chapter 122: Cave in the Ground (1st More Thanks to the Alliance Leader's Weak Breathing)
Finally, it came closer.
In the dark, there are shadows, not a building.
Rather, it is a stone the size of a house.
Most of it was above the ground, and a small half was submerged in the ground below.
"Meteorite?"
Lu Chao touched the marks on the surface of the cold stone that seemed to have been burned, and his expression was a little blank.
At the bottom of the pit, it can't be home at all!
There could be no her.
He's just giving himself an excuse to persevere.
Illusions, after all, will still be disillusioned.
Lu Chao slowly slid on the ground with his back against the stone.
Tired.
It's really tiring.
When those beliefs that supported him were completely shattered by the cold stone at this moment, his spirit and his body seemed to collapse in an instant.
No matter how strong the obsession is, it can't get her to return to him.
Is he taking the wrong path?
In the future, is it necessary to stick to it any longer?
If you don't persevere, what should you do in the future?
Lu Chao hugged his head with both hands.
Closed his eyes tightly.
No sound came out, just a struggle to keep sadness and fragility from pouring out of his eyes.
Then slowly, slowly, I became as hard as a stone behind me.
"Woo!"
Behind the huge stone, there was a small black voice.
Lu Chao sat quietly for a while, until his emotions had completely calmed down, then he stood up, held the stone and walked around for half a circle, and came to Xiao Hei's side.
Blackie found something.
It's a hole.
A hole about half a meter in diameter.
Below the ground leading to the bottom of the pit.
There was a slight breeze coming from the cavern, which seemed to mean that there was a lot of space inside, and it led to another exit.
Such a large pit, and no lake formed after rain and snow, indicates that there must be many such holes at the bottom of the pit, and the water formed by rain and snow is discharged into the ground in time.
So, this hole should lead to an underground river or something.
If you go down, you will most likely drown.
Lu Chao found a rope from his backpack, tied it to the handle of the oil lamp, slowly lowered the oil lamp into the hole, and then looked inside.
The smooth stone walls clearly show signs of being washed by flowing water.
But what the hell is the iron ladder that goes down one block at a time on the stone wall?
If it is an iron ladder, it will easily rust and break when washed by running water. Therefore, it is very likely that the wall ladder made of some kind of anti-rust alloy is nailed into the stone wall of the cave every half a meter.
Since there is a ladder leading to the bottom, it means that there should be an artificial structure underneath, or a mysterious structure.
Lu Chao continued to use the rope to put the oil lamp down, and after going down for about seven or eight meters, a horizontal hole appeared on the side of the stone wall, and he didn't know where it led.
Further down, the cavern still leads deep underground, but the staircase no longer extends downward.
It seems that the purpose of the wall ladder is to get to the horizontal opening.
After discovering this secret, of course Lu Chao wanted to go down and explore it.
Whether it's a game room or a portal underneath, it's worth a try.
Whatever it was, it was more likely to pique his interest than a never-ending concrete road and a never-ending woods.
In order to avoid accidentally falling into a bottomless deep hole and falling into the underground river, Lu Chao first went to the woods to break a tree, got a piece of wood with a fork outside the hole, and took out a rope, tied one end to his waist, and the other end to the forked wood.
In this way, even if he accidentally stepped on the air, or if the metal ladder collapsed from the cave wall without being strong, he would not fall into the bottomless underground river below.
As for Blackie, let it be on guard outside first.
The metal wall ladder was stronger than expected, and after Lu Chao went down to the hole, he came to the horizontal hole at a depth of seven or eight meters, and then shone the oil lamp into the horizontal hole.
Inside, there is a corridor, the same style as the corridor in the game room and the portal, and the light of the oil lamp is limited, so it is impossible to see where this corridor leads.
Since there is a corridor of the same style, it means that this building is also the product of a mysterious force, and it is worth exploring.
But first you have to get Hei in.
Lu Chao returned to the ground and tied Xiao Hei's head and waist with a rope.
Then Lu Chao stuffed Xiao Hei into the hole in the ground, and slowly hung it close to the horizontal hole seven or eight meters deep.
Xiao Hei stretched out his front paws and crawled in.
Lu Chao then went down the hole with Yaya in his arms, followed the wall ladder to the horizontal hole, and entered the corridor.
The sensor lights in the hallway lit up.
A few dozen meters away, in front of it, there is a familiar glass wall.
There is a glass door on the glass wall that can only be opened by swiping a card.
Lu Chao walked over, and through the glass wall, he could see that there was an escalator behind the glass door, leading to the deeper underground.
The escalator is not running at this time, which should be because Lu Chao has not swiped the card to enter the door.
Needless to say, swipe your card and enter the door.
There is a large LCD screen on the wall next to it, and a 24-hour countdown appears on the screen.
"24 hours, will it be another game?" Lu Chao guessed.
The underground space seems to be very large, is it a very large game hall?
After the countdown began, the escalators were also energized.
Lu Chao hugged the sleeping girl and stood on the escalator with Xiao Hei.
The escalator slowly descended, and it was about the height of a three-story building, and it came to the bottom.
Then, there is the corridor that turns right.
After turning right and going straight for dozens of meters, Lu Chao saw a very familiar scene.
A familiar scene in the real world.
Here, it's actually a subway station!
"Since it's a subway station, do you want to make the entrance so private? Do you want to sell more tickets to recoup your investment? Lu Chao complained a few words.
Of course, he also knew that these so-called game rooms, portals, and subway stations were just random play of mysterious powers. When the countdown is over, everything will disappear, leaving at most a rough exterior of reinforced concrete.
"What a hassle in the subway station! The teleportation distance is also limited. ”
"Why do you want to make a subway station? Where do you want to go, why don't you just get a portal? ”
"It looks like the place where you can go by subway from here shouldn't be too far from here."
"In any case, I'm going to take this subway and try it to see what's in it."
Lu Chao continued to move forward and saw the ticket vending machine by the wall, and there was a place to swipe the card next to it, so he went over and took out his membership card and swiped it.
As for Yaya, it is so small, according to the rules, it should be free of charge.
Blackie's words...... If the security checkpoint doesn't stop it, you should be able to take it on the subway.
