Chapter 338: Under the Square, a Mysterious Existence!
I have to say that this island is really a very mysterious existence. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
When night falls, the whole island is quickly darkened, but the next morning, around six o'clock, the sky suddenly brightens.
Soon, the entire island was flooded with sunlight.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Nie Zheng himself couldn't believe that the alternation of black and white in this area would have changed so quickly.
After getting dressed, Nie Zheng quickly walked onto the deck of the destroyer, looked at the coast not far away again, and found that the island was still lifeless, except for the occasional group of red-headed seabirds on the reef on the shore, it was basically difficult to see other animals.
Not only are there not many creatures alive on the island, but even in the sea area in this area, Nie Zheng has not seen any small fish or shrimp swimming.
What a spooky place!
After a quick breakfast, Nie Zheng took a helicopter parked on the deck and flew towards the mysterious city in the center of the island again.
Tata Tower......
The high-speed rotating propellers of the gunship roared in mid-air, rolling up gusts of wind.
A moment later, Nie Zheng once again came to the square at the entrance of the palace.
However, just when Nie Zheng had just appeared in the sky above the square, he was surprised to find that all the corpses of all the giant mermaids that had been piled up on the square had disappeared.
Seeing this scene, Nie Zheng's face changed. "Huh? Why are they all gone? What's going on? ”
Thinking of this, he immediately jumped out of the helicopter, ready to ask what was going on.
Although Nie Zheng returned to the destroyer to rest last night, there were still hundreds of clone soldiers left on this square to guard the night, and they should know more about what happened.
Just when Nie Zheng came to the gate of the palace, a leading clone soldier quickly ran to Nie Zheng and reported loudly: "Report sir, a very strange thing happened here just now!" ”
"Strange things?"
Nie Zheng's face sank, and he hurriedly said, "What is the matter?" ”
The clone soldier continued: "At the moment when the sun appeared just now, all the mermaid corpses piled up around the square were all fireless and turned into black ashes. ”
Hearing this, Nie Zheng was taken aback, and hurriedly looked at the place where the clone soldier was pointing.
really
Originally, on both sides of the palace gate, a large number of mermaid corpses were piled up, but at this moment, all of them were empty, not to mention the corpses, not even a single fish scale was seen.
Where the mermaid corpses were piled up, pools of dark brown ash appeared on the ground, presumably these ashes were left behind by those mermaids.
After listening to the report of the clone soldiers, Nie Zheng was extremely puzzled, and then he asked, "In addition to these mermaid corpses turning into ashes, did any strange phenomena happen here last night?" ”
"Other than that, nothing happens......"
Nie Zheng stood in front of the puddle of dark brown ashes, frowning and pondering. "These giant mermaids, what are they strange creatures? Why did their corpses turn to ashes at dawn? Can't they see the light? Or can't you see the sun? ”
When Nie Zheng landed on the island during the day yesterday, when he found that the whole city was lifeless, he felt that something was wrong.
In broad daylight, there were no anomalous creatures in the city, but when it was dark, the giant merfolk sprang out of the pool of the small castle.
It can be seen that these giant mermaids, they should be deep in the water at night, and then at night after hearing the call of the stone pillars in the square, they run out in groups.
The dozens of giant stone pillars around the square had been blown up by Nie Zheng last night.
There is indeed an anomaly in the stone pillar, so we have to study it well and visit it.
Thinking of this, Nie Zheng planned to enter the palace first, and after arranging the gold and silver treasures in the palace, he would come to explore around the square.
Standing at the door of the main hall, looking at the gold and silver treasures piled up in the palace, Nie Zheng immediately arranged for two hundred clone soldiers to enter the palace to continue sifting through the jewels and jade.
The gate of time and space was opened last night, and the next time it was opened, it would be at least two nights later.
In the past few days, let people first select the jewels and jade mixed with the gold and silver piles, so as not to be too busy for everyone.
After arranging for the two hundred clone soldiers to enter the temple to select jewelry and jade, Nie Zheng divided the remaining three hundred clone soldiers into more than a dozen groups, each group of twenty people, and asked them to carry night vision goggles, flashlights, stab-proof suits, and gas masks...... and other military equipment, fully armed and scattered to the corners of the alleys of the city to conduct a carpet search.
In this mysterious city, there must be many secrets that have not been discovered by him, because a person's wisdom and ability are limited, and if more people are arranged to explore, there may be unexpected discoveries.
In this way, more than a dozen groups of people and horses, according to Nie Zheng's orders, gradually searched in the ruined city inch by inch.
Nie Zheng did not leave the palace, because he had to personally lead dozens of clone soldiers to carefully explore the surroundings of this huge square.
Coming to the broken stone pillars again, Nie Zheng brought his eyes to take a look, and found that the black hole with a large bowl mouth in the middle of the stone pillar was very quiet.
It struck him as a little strange.
Last night, he remembered very clearly, these black holes were constantly "whirring" out of the cold wind, why did there be no movement during the day?
In order to figure out what was under the black hole, Nie Zheng took out a flashlight and looked down at the entrance of the cave, and found that it was all black, and he couldn't find anything at all.
Seeing this scene, Nie Zheng touched his chin and thought about it secretly. "Will there be another space under this kind of square? The legendary seven-colored spirit fruit, I wonder if it will be hidden underneath? ”
From yesterday to now, as long as Nie Zheng enters the city, it will immediately have an abnormal reaction, it is obvious that there must be AR ore hidden in this city, Nie Zheng is convinced of this.
Looking at the black hole in front of him, Nie Zheng ordered the people around him to take out the grenades, ready to throw a few into it to try to move, but after thinking about it in an instant, Nie Zheng gave up this idea again.
In case there is really an underground space under this square, and at the same time, the legendary seven-colored spirit fruit is also hidden inside, when a few grenades are thrown down, I am afraid that the seven-colored spirit fruit will be blown up.
The main purpose of this trip to sea is to find the seven-colored spirit fruit.
If the seven-colored spirit fruit was destroyed by himself by mistake, and when the time came, Shen Hongyu's injuries would not be able to recover.
After thinking about it, Nie Zheng felt that he must not act recklessly until he figured things out.
"Everyone listen to the order, around this square, give me a few more times to check, be careful, be smart, if you find any signs of abnormality, remember to notify me as soon as possible!"
"Yes, sir!" The crowd responded.
Soon, dozens of clone soldiers followed Nie Zheng's request and went their separate ways.
Dozens of people with flashlights and detectors searched back and forth around the huge square.
Before you know it, an hour has passed.
Including Nie Zheng, everyone didn't gain anything at all, and nothing suspicious was found.
As for the dozen or so groups of people scattered in the city, there was no news from them, and they must have gained nothing.
Nie Zheng came to the blown stone pillars again, his brows furrowed, "I obviously feel that there is a problem under the square, but I can't find the entrance to open it, damn, don't you have to use grenade bombs!" ”
When he was depressed, suddenly, there was an excited shout from a distance, "Report sir, something seems to be wrong here......
Nie Zheng's heart moved, and he hurriedly looked up, only to see two clone soldiers standing in front of the giant mermaid statue in the center of the square, as if they had found something. Seeing this, he immediately ran over quickly.
The giant mermaid statue standing in the center of the square, up to more than ten meters, is extremely majestic and exquisitely carved, especially its huge fin tail, which is placed horizontally on the square, seven or eight meters long, about three or four meters wide, covering an area of at least dozens of square meters.
At this time, the two clone soldiers stood on the left side of the statue's fin tail, pointed to the middle part of the fin tail and said: "Sir, we found that the tail part of this giant mermaid statue seems to be hollow. ”
"Hollow?"
Nie Zheng raised his eyebrows, immediately picked up a hammer, and struck the fin tail of the stone carving for a while.
Bang!
Bang bang!!
Bang bang bang!!
Boom......
Sure enough, in the middle of the fins and tails of the stone carving, the sound of Nie Zheng hitting with an iron hammer was obviously different from other places.
When the rest of the place is struck, there is a solid "thump" sound, but when it hits the middle of the fin tail, the sound from above is completely "knock knock" sound.
Seeing this scene, Nie Zheng's heart jumped, and he ordered on the spot: "Come on, blow up here!" ”
"Yes, sir!"
After receiving the order, several clone soldiers soon ran over with bazookas.
At this time, Nie Zheng pointed to the fins and tails of the stone carving that he had just struck, and said, "If you see it clearly, you can shoot at here, but try not to blow down the entire mermaid statue." ”
"Understood, sir!" Several people nodded in agreement.
Nie Zheng quickly left the bombing range and ran dozens of meters away, at this time, the bazookas that had already been loaded with rockets quickly pressed the trigger on the middle part of the stone fin tail.
Shout......
Thundered!!!
The flames were blazing and the rubble was flying.
The fins and tails of the stone carving were bombarded by two rockets, and a big hole was solidly blasted, and when the rockets exploded, Nie Zheng and the others clearly felt that the entire mermaid statue seemed to shake gently, especially around the explosion area, there were many cracks.
"Okay, ceasefire!"
After seeing a big hole in the fins and tails of the stone carving blown out by rockets, Nie Zheng immediately rushed to him with people.
At this moment, the middle of the mermaid's fin tail was blasted out of a hole the size of a water tank.
Nie Zheng took a flashlight and came to take a look, and found that there was really something wrong with the inside of this mermaid statue.
"There's a secret passage in there?"
Nie Zheng lay at the entrance of the cave, used a flashlight to observe up and down for a long time, and found that there was really a circular passage in the body of the mermaid statue, which led up to the head of the mermaid statue and down to the underground of the square.
In order to find out where the secret passage in the mermaid's belly led underground, Nie Zheng ordered the clone soldier to take out grenades and rockets and blow up the entire giant fin tail placed horizontally in the square.
After all the fins and tails of the stone carving exploded, the light suddenly became much brighter.
With the help of the sun's rays, Nie Zheng lay on the ground, trying to poke his head into the circular dark passage, after some hard observation, in the end, he was surprised to find that this dark passage went vertically, as if it was like a well.
The dark passage was bottomless, and Nie Zheng couldn't estimate how deep it was.
Threw a few pieces of gravel down, and after a long time, the sound of stones falling to the ground was heard, according to estimates, this vertical dark passage is at least tens of meters deep.
Lying in front of the dark passage and observing for a long time, Nie Zheng was very puzzled.
Why is there a secret passage in the belly of the mermaid statue?
This secret passage is a little weird, isn't it?
Its exit was not built on the ground, nor inside the palace castle, but in the belly of this giant mermaid statue?
Looking at the head of the mermaid statue again, it was still black, and there was no exit at all.
Thinking of this, Nie Zheng's heart moved, and he hurriedly instructed a clone soldier: "You climb into the head of the mermaid statue from this secret passage to check it and see if there is anything abnormal?" ”
"Yes, sir!"
Upon hearing the command, the clone soldier immediately climbed up with both hands and feet.
After a short time, he finally crawled along the circular dark passage to the head of the mermaid statue, and after some careful observation, he told Nie Zheng loudly that there were many moving dark holes hidden in the head of the mermaid statue, and through those dark holes, you could secretly observe the scene in the entire city.
Hearing this, Nie Zheng was very surprised, "There are a lot of dark holes in the mermaid's head, what do you mean?" Does anyone want to climb into the head of the mermaid statue through this secret passage to see the scenery? ”
Could it be that there are other people on this island?
Or rather, there is something else mysterious.
Suddenly, a terrible thought surged through Nie Zheng's heart, he suspected that since he entered this city, he had been secretly peeping at by a pair of mysterious eyes.
Yesterday there was no movement in the city during the day, but at night, the giant merfolk hidden in the small castle ran out in unison.
At this moment, Nie Zheng remembered a more critical point.
Last night, he saw with his own eyes that the gates of those small castles were all opened at the same time.
The gates of the castle are extremely tough and heavy, he controls the biological giants, and it takes a lot of effort to split them, and those thick gates cannot be opened normally without the control of the mechanism.
There is one more place that is very doubtful.
Last night, it was precisely because of the giant stone pillars around the square, and at the same time emitted a burst of sharp and piercing whistling, that those giant merfolk were brought out.
Can the stone pillars make sounds on their own?
Will the doors of those small castles open on their own?
And the giant merfolk, will they run out of the pool for no reason?
Thinking of this, Nie Zheng's face sank, and he once again cast his cold gaze into the dark passage leading to the underground.
"Everything, there must be some mysterious thing secretly manipulating, otherwise, everything that happened in the city last night can't be explained at all, it seems that I have to find a way to go down to this secret passage to investigate, whether it is the seven-colored spirit fruit, or the thing hidden in the shadows, I have to find them......"
