Chapter 131: Centipede Cult
The name "Centipede Cult" is not unfamiliar to the archaeological community, a notorious group of foreign tomb robbers who have been stealing artifacts from all over the world since the last century. They are well-equipped, accurate in intelligence, brutal and cruel in their methods, as long as they enter the tomb, often there will be no bones left, in their opinion, everything in the ancient tomb can be sold for money.
In Professor Chen's opinion, the appearance of the Centipede Cult indicates that there is a high probability of a large ancient tomb here, and at the same time, it also makes him feel a little unsure.
With the addition of these seven guns, there are now a total of ten guns in the expedition, and there are quite a lot of bullets. For Situ Fang, with this, there was nothing to fear, so he asked Professor Chen, "Professor, what kind of organization is the Centipede Divine Cult?" Tell us about it, and we'll be prepared. ”
"The original name of the Centipede Divine Cult was the Witch Palace Divine Cult, which translates to the witch of witchcraft, the palace of the palace, it is said that it was an organization established by a group of Americans in the last century, at first they were in the cave to carry out some evil arts exchanges and gatherings, during which they often helped the so-called medical people to steal the corpse that had just been buried, and then slowly stared at the ancient tombs, especially after they went to Rome and other countries, it was even more so that their ** was enhanced, they are also suspected of having robbed several tombs in our country, but where they have been allowed to enter the tomb, It's all a mess, they're very advanced, they all have what we have, and they're even more professional than us, and they're also equipped with a lot of weapons, as you already know, after encountering them, there are very few survivors, because they're particularly vicious, so they're slowly called the Centipede Cult. ”
"And who is the leader of their organization now?"
"It is said to be Chinese, I don't know the specifics."
"Then how did they get into the country?"
"They all enter the country secretly from the border, and they don't leave any identity information in the target country."
"That means their information won't be grasped, right?"
"Yes, now Interpol is also at a loss for them."
"I hope that the injured grave robber is dead, and I hope he can give him some useful information."
"It's basically impossible, people like them are hired temporarily, the real mastermind will not come forward, and the leaders are basically grassroots personnel, and the information is difficult to grasp."
"So let's do it now, our expedition team now has eighteen guns, plus the slight charge of the armed police and special police, the firepower is quite good, you still walk behind the team, and we will open the way, okay?"
"Yes, but there are many mechanisms in the ancient tombs, and now I am not afraid that you will encounter the tomb robbers, but that I am afraid of the mechanisms."
"I think those tomb robbers have already helped us out, so let's not think about it for now, and now we'll go in their direction, what do you think?"
"Okay! Give it a try! ”
After entering the passage where the tomb robbers walked, after walking for only a few minutes, Situ Fang immediately turned to the back and said, "Professor, this road is wrong!" ”
"What's wrong?"
"It's been climbing higher and higher, and it feels like the air quality is getting worse, maybe there's a dead end ahead."
"Now the road under your feet is very normal, the artificial chiseling is very smooth, if the air is worse, it may indeed be a dead end in front, but this is a bit unreasonable, I analyze that there may be a blocked door in front of it, after all, if the ancient tomb wants to store something, it still needs to be supported by a dry environment, so it is normal to gradually climb higher."
After continuing to walk for a few minutes, I finally reached the end, and the front was indeed as Professor Chen said: a stone gate.
After walking a few laps from here, Situ Fang said to Professor Chen: "Professor, I think there is really a problem with this road, we obviously came in along the route of the tomb robbers, and we didn't find any forks in the road after entering, and we didn't find any footprints here. ”
"Maybe there is a secret passage here, which we have ignored in the past, but it is a good thing to see the stone gate, which means that we may be closer to the ancient tomb than them, now hurry up and find a way to open this stone gate, Lao Zhang, it's time for you to perform."
There is nothing special about this stone gate, the gap is not very large, and the front of the stone gate looks bare, and there are no decorative stone carvings.
Zhang Gong pushed the stone gate hard, and then looked at Professor Chen carefully, and said, "This is the stone gate, which should be controlled by gravity balance, and the mechanism should be on the side." ”
With that, he slowly inspected the stone door, and soon noticed something unusual on the ground: a broken stone on the steps caught his attention. He pressed down the stone, and the door slowly opened with a "rumbling" sound. In the light of the flashlight, the secret behind the door was discovered: a long passage of passages, all the way up.
The more they walked, the more they felt that the air was poor, and Zhang Gong, who was walking at the back of the team, was a little irritable, and he said to Professor Chen: "Old Chen, how do you feel that this is climbing a mountain?" It's not as good as that, it's almost oxygen-starved. ”
"We're really climbing the mountain, be patient, adjust your breathing, and my instincts tell me that there's something to discover."
"What kind of discovery?"
"Maybe it's close to the Hades Temple or something like that."
"Almost to the tomb?"
"Now we're walking in the graveyard!"
"Where have the centipede cultists gone? We didn't find a fork in the road, did we? ”
"I think that's why the grave keepers are secretly helping us, they must have secretly switched the passage for us and introduced the grave robbers to another dimension."
"So they know what we're up to?"
As they spoke, there was a sudden jolt under their feet, and then a loud noise came from the front, and at the same time there was a powerful air current.
Situ Fang immediately knew that someone was blasting in front of him, and the amount of explosives was controlled quite accurately, so he said softly: "Everyone quickly turn off the lights and lie down, don't make a sound!" ”
In this way, everyone nervously lay on the ground, nervously listening to the movement ahead in the dark.
After more than a minute, there was finally movement ahead, and more than 100 meters away, a few foreigners swore and swore into the tomb.
They shone their flashlights down, and when they saw that they didn't find anything, they slowly walked in the other direction.
Seeing that they had slowly walked away, Situ Fang said softly: "It is estimated that there are stones in front of them that have been blown down, you all lie on your stomach and don't move, I'll go over and take a look!" ”
After saying that, he took out his gun and slowly groped his way up.
