It was close to 1:13 a.m., and there was still the last minute of time, and everyone's hearts could not be calmed, and their tense nerves did not dare to relax for a moment. Under their noses, everyone's eyes widened, not believing that under the gaze of many people, that kind of thing could easily kill people.

Yang Xi, who seemed to be the most emotionally stable, also held the cold weapon in his hand, but turned his head in another direction, and vaguely felt that there was an abnormality on a boulder a few meters away.

Seconds run slowly, and minutes seem even longer.

There was a low, heavy breathing sound all around, and a faint outline of a human face gradually appeared on the boulder. It's a pity that only Yang Xi saw this scene, but the object of everyone's attention was Kong Liu.

Yang Xi's expression was slightly solemn, and the facial features of the human face on the boulder changed from blurry to clear, and a hideous face appeared.

The face looked more like a small person, or rather an ungrown baby, and his expression was entrenched in resentment, twisted in extreme pain, and the aura revealed was dangerous and calm.

Yang Xi couldn't stand it anymore because of his sullen breath, and couldn't help but exclaim, it was really too weird for the faces on the boulder.

"Face, face!"

Yang Xi called out, immediately attracting everyone's attention. When everyone looked at the boulder that Yang Xi pointed to, the face quickly disappeared, as if it had never appeared there.

"What is he talking about, what's there there?" Wu Min asked.

"He's talking about human faces, and there's a face on the boulder." July relayed, wondering why Yang Xi could see it, but he didn't see anything just now.

In the puzzled eyes of everyone, the time had passed unconsciously at 1:13, and the soldier guarding Kong Liu's side noticed that her condition was different, and reached out and gently pushed it.

Who would have thought that under a push, Kong Liu lay down crookedly, his eyes rolling, and he was already dead.

This frightened the soldier, and hurriedly reported, and everyone came to their senses to find that Kong Liu was dead.

Wu Min's gaze fell on Kong Liu's corpse, and his mood was very complicated.

Jiang Erye was also stunned for a while, but in this last minute, Kong Liu had an accident, and under the psychological effect of suspicion, he couldn't help but doubt Yang Xi's intentions. Only Yang Xi is a native here, God knows where he came from and what kind of intentions he has to follow this team.

Strassmann examined the body and determined that Kong Liu had just lost his breath, and that the time of death should have been just a few minutes ago, and said regretfully: "Sudden death, no external injuries." ”

Without exception, Kong Liu's facial expression was terrified when she died, and Wu Min wondered if she had also seen the human face on the boulder like Yang Xi.

On the watch belonging to Kong Liu, the time stopped at 1:13 a.m.

The corners of Strathman's mouth moved as he wanted to say something, but he didn't. He had always wondered if it was an infection caused by some tiny insect bite, which immediately killed Kong Liu. But the protective clothing is tightly covered, and the only part exposed to the air has been carefully inspected, and there are no signs of bites.

Jiang Erye asked, "Do you see something?" Is this really how you died in vain? ”

Strassmann thought for a long time and said: "There is no condition to do a full autopsy, and I suspect that it may be a mosquito bite that injected toxins to cause heart paralysis." If this is the case, the mosquito is very small and leaves a wound that is not easily visible to the naked eye. ”

A soldier lost his mind a little, disappeared one after another, the corpse of his companion seen during the day, Kong Liu also died a few minutes ago, under the fear of the huge death oppression, he held an automatic rifle and fired at the surrounding boulders, and roared loudly while strafing: "your stone, come, come out and kill me." ”

His tone showed his complicated heart at the moment, the soldier who disappeared the night before was his own brother.

The bullets catapulted on the stones, poking out bullet marks one by one, leaving very light bullet hole marks, and if you don't look closely, you can't see the traces of bullet shooting at all.

July was surprised to see the frantic soldier finish the bullets in the magazine, and looked at the whole boulder in amazement, the strong smell of gunpowder in the air, and the sparks produced by the high-speed impact of the bullet and the stone disappeared in a flash.

July's eyes were full of puzzlement, and he muttered to himself, "What a hard stone." ”

The effective firing range of this automatic rifle is at least more than 1,000 meters, and the intensity of firing at a range of more than 10 meters can be imagined. Such a powerful shot failed to leave a deep pit on the stones, and Jiang Erye also noticed this problem: "There is a problem with these boulders, and the material itself is probably not an ordinary stone." ”

Jiang Erye is a little right, there are currently no known types of stone that can reach this strength, which makes people wonder if these are really ordinary stones?

Wu Min cursed the soldier a few words, and ordered someone to take down the firearm, and the mood of the people in the team became more and more unstable, and the firearm that was originally prepared to visit the ancient city of Sha Buried was likely to accidentally injure his own people.

Strathsmann is a rigorous scientist, and he didn't believe in these gods and gods before, and what he saw and heard on this trip also made him doubt whether there really were ghosts and gods in the world, at least the incident that everyone has experienced so far cannot be explained by common sense.

Under the huge casualties, Wu Min's temper was also much shorter, and after discussing with Jiang Erye, he decided to figure out the composition of the boulder, and even suggested that Jiang Erye use explosives to blow up these strange stones when necessary.

Several soldiers skillfully untied a large backpack and brought out small machines to analyze the interior of the boulder and its materials.

They chose the boulder that had been strafed, and the metal wires were wrapped around the boulder, and the soldiers who operated it trembled with their hands, always feeling that a pair of eyes were watching their every move in the boulder.

After more than half an hour of preparation, the equipment was turned on, and a soldier carefully circled around the boulder with a small X-ray machine in his hand.

Wu Min, Jiang Erye, Strassman, July, Ning Yun stood in front of the black and white screen, nervously looking at the scene inside the boulder.

At first, the picture was black and deep, Wu Min tapped a few buttons on the computer keyboard, which seemed to strengthen the ray penetration, the squeaky electric sound, and a pair of intently focused eyes staring at the screen.

"No picture?"

"Can't you wear it?"

"That's probably the case in the stones."

There was a lot of discussion, and the information fed back from various surveying and mapping instruments that the inside of the stone should be solid, and the calculated weight was surprisingly heavy, and the measured boulder alone weighed ten tons.

The picture is still pitch black, and Wu Min said: "It may be that the rays are impenetrable, and we should have focused on these stones a long time ago." ”

Second Master Jiang sulked his head, smoked a cigarette, and suddenly raised his head and asked Qiyue: "I remember you told me before that this is a shadow array, so is there a way for you to unlock this formation." ”

In a flash of inspiration, Jiang Erye laughed at herself and almost forgot the existence of July, since she could distinguish the origin of Stonehenge, there might be a solution.

July said: "Second master, do you think that if I had a way, I would be so coldly watched? Since it's an old formation, it's not something that a girl with a short experience like me can recognize and break the law. ”

Second Master Jiang nodded, July's words are not leaky, not to mention that this girl really doesn't look like a person who deliberately hides herself.

"The instrument has responded." Wu Min's mood suddenly became nervous, and his decadent and sluggish spirit suddenly burst into the keyboard, tapping the keyboard quickly.

On the screen, objects do appear.

Wu Min made a zooming operation on the keyboard, and the parser tried to optimize the picture, and there were a few short seconds in the dark background, and it was obvious that there was an object that moved slightly in the dark, and it didn't take long to stand still.

Wu Min ordered the soldier holding the X-ray machine to stop, and brought the instrument closer to the current position, she was now sure that there should be life inside the boulder, and it hid itself well, almost blending into the background, and it really couldn't be found out if you didn't look closely.

Ning Yun tugged at his palms and looked at the picture tremblingly, "Old man, aren't you an expert in this area?" What do you see this thing is? ”

The picture is still, no different from looking at a painting in full black, and in fact, Strathmann is also curious about what kind of creatures can live inside the monolith. After shaking it just now, it can be roughly judged from the shape that this life form is much smaller than that of an adult man, but it is about the size of a child, and what I saw just now should be its head.

Still? Wu Min thought to himself, when the picture appeared, it was when the rays intensified, proving that the objects inside the boulder reacted to the strong rays.

So he ordered a linear accelerator, a device capable of emitting a large number of photons, known as Y-rays. A high dose of radiation was continuously injected into the boulder through the device's probe, and the cold stone did not react at all.

There is also silence in the picture.

Increase the radiation dose, Wu Min commanded. This device is no longer the same as X-rays, but Y-rays, which have the ability to kill cells.

The gloomy picture moved again, and an object swayed from side to side twice, different from the dark background, seemingly very resistant to Y-rays.

Second Master Jiang snorted coldly and said, "Sure enough, there is something." ”

Strassmann took a deep breath and was horrified by this strange lifeform, "It reacts to Y-rays, and it can be assumed that it has cellular tissue, and Y-rays can destroy its body tissue. ”

The computer screen flickered a few times, and the snowflakes in the picture fluctuated, as if they were strongly disturbed.

A black human face, with the outline of its facial features, like a face appearing on the bottom of a dark pot, can distinguish its hideous face, and its temper has become very irritable.

Crackling, squeaking.

Everyone was still immersed in the face picture, and before they had time to react, all the electronic devices actually had problems at the same time.

First, white smoke came out of the radiation probe, and the high temperature from the hot handle forced the operating soldier to throw away the probe.

Then, the entire computer screen snowflakes, and for a very short time, the computer screen dimmed.

The image vanished, and the face hidden inside the boulder dissipated from the screen.
