The utter silence made everyone uneasy, and everyone was silent, all eyes fixed on the shore in the distance, except for the old wolf who occasionally broke through the water with his oars, and made a long wave.

Near the shore is a very dense forest.

I don't know what season the East China Sea is at the moment, but I can see that the vegetation in the forest is some luxuriant, some withered and withered, as if winter and summer are intertwined at the same time.

Everyone jumped lightly into the water as the boat was about to anchor, and together they carried the boat out of the water and hid it in the woods.

We hid the boat, and when we were about to leave the woods, we found another ship not far from us.

At first, I thought the ship was left behind by the Exocets, but when I looked closer, I found that the hull had decayed, and the entire bottom of the ship was covered with vine branches.

This boat has been here for a long time.

Everyone saw the boat, but there was no unnecessary discussion between them, and I waved at everyone to continue deeper, and everyone followed me silently.

There was no wind on the island, the vegetation in the forest seemed to be frozen, there was not a trace of swaying in the moonlight, and on the ground, only our shadows were constantly moving.

There is not even the sound of insects chirping here, only the sound of our footsteps and breathing slowly soaking the air under the night.

Ever since I left the rain curtain, I felt that this area was filled with a mysterious and oppressive aura, which penetrated the skin and pressed on everyone's hearts sullenly, making people breathless.

I walked for a long time, and I didn't see the people who walked at night, during which I threw inquiring glances at Lilith many times, and Lilith only knew that I had looked at her a few times, but she couldn't read the meaning in my eyes, and no response flew out.

Come to think of it, just my dead fish eyes, there is no brilliance at all, and it is a bit difficult for her to expect Lilith to understand my eyes, besides, the eyes are this thing, which can only be understood by those who have a very high degree of tacit understanding with you.

I couldn't bear it anymore, so I took the initiative to speak: "Do you see those people holding the lamp?" ”

Lilith shook her head: "I also think it's weird, I saw a few old ladies just now, how much effort it takes, and I don't know where it went." ”

I frowned slightly, but didn't ask any more.

Passing through a dense field of eucalyptus trees, a high wall appeared in front of us, which was made of large blocks of rough stone, and between the stones was watered with volcanic mud, which was very strong, and the surface of the wall was so polished that it was impossible to climb it with bare hands.

As I was worried about the stone wall, Monceau quickly approached me and whispered to me, "This wall has been cursed by his master, and no one can climb it, but I have heard from his master that he has opened a secret tunnel under the east wall, and we can pass through it." ”

When I left the big ship, I saw Lu Shengcai stuffing the hook and chain into the side pocket of his backpack, although this wall could not be climbed with bare hands, but with the help of ropes, it was still possible, the reason why I was worried was that there might be danger lurking behind the stone wall.

To be honest, I don't believe in the idea that the stone wall has been cursed, but in the spirit of the principle that more is better than less, I nodded and let him lead the way.

Monceau immediately shrunk into the bushes, and I stepped out of my way to quickly catch up with him, but before I could move forward, I motioned for everyone to regroup and let Sif retreat to the back of the line, who had been in the middle of the group.

The main reason for this is to guard against Monceau, and in case he has any bad intentions, we will take Sif hostage.

In this kind of environment, you can't be sure that the people around you are on the same page as you, and you still have to be on the same page.

Monceau walked through the cracks of the eucalyptus trees, and at the same time turned his face sideways, looking near the root of the wall, the stone wall was covered with weeds, I didn't know what kind of grass it was, but I saw that they grew very amazingly, at least two meters high, and one meter five and a half meters and six meters short, even if there was a secret passage under the root of the wall, it was blocked by these grasses.

But Monceau's eyesight was much better than mine, and he might be able to see what was hidden behind the cracks in the grass.

For a moment, I noticed that Monceau's eyes suddenly froze, and I immediately motioned for the person behind him to stop, and sure enough, half a second later, he suddenly stopped in place with a sudden stop.

If I hadn't asked everyone to stop in advance, this one would have hit 100 percent.

Monceau leaned sideways, looked at the large tuft of weeds under the wall, and then shrank down, leaned under the wall, took a shovel from his backpack with his backhand, and carefully removed the weeds.

He was justified in being so careful, and as he was pulling the weeds with a shovel, he saw that many of the weeds were sloping directly from the roots, rather than the whole grass bending in the middle, indicating that the weeds had been bent by a heavy weight, causing creases near the roots.

When Monceau opened a large area of weeds, he saw a black hole emerging behind the grass, which was an artificially built arch hole, about one meter eight in height and one meter in width.

It seems that there were people who had entered the tunnel before, and those people trampled on the weeds at the entrance of the cave, and then they helped the weeds up and deliberately asked them to block the entrance again.

However, it is not certain whether the people who passed in front of the cave entrance earlier were the Flying Fish team or the lantern bearers who had appeared on the water's shore.

Monceau pulled a cold light stick out of his backpack, wrung it on, and threw it into the tunnel.

We don't have any high-end equipment like that, these cold rods are scavenged from their boat.

Then in the cold light, I realized that this tunnel was far from being as long as I imagined, but the opposite side was also weeds and opaque, so it looked very deep.

On the surface, there didn't seem to be anything unusual in the tunnel, but to be careful, I still waved behind me and whispered: "Come on two hard-nosed people, go in and explore the wind." ”

Lilith and the old wolf didn't say a word of nonsense, and immediately broke away from the group and went into the tunnel one after the other.

The physique of the two of them is not ordinary, and ordinary traps can't hurt them, so they are definitely the best candidates for Lei.

Seeing that Lilith and the old wolf had gone through the entire tunnel and had any trouble, I led the rest of the people through the tunnel.

After passing through the tunnel, we entered the interior of the pressurized city, yes, this is the city we saw in the mirage, the buildings here were gray-green, but it was not the color of the houses themselves, but an oily mud, as if the whole city had been immersed in the depths of the swamp.

There was a sweet smell in the air similar to that of rotten apples, which was not particularly pungent, but the smell was extremely uncomfortable.
