Chapter 405: Exploring the Underground

The basement level of the entire hotel building is lit by a few dim torches.

Luo Hou and Wu Mingsheng and the others gathered in a circle, looking at the flat circular hole on the basement floor that led to the underground for an unknown depth.

The entrance to the cave is less than three meters high, but it is more than five meters wide, and it leads obliquely to the ground, and when you look inside, it is dark and deep, even if the torches made of mutant pine resin burn into a fierce ball of fire, it still can't shine far.

The mounts of the crowd stayed outside, and after discussing the cave for a while, they decided to go down and find out what secrets were hidden underground.

Whether it was Luo Hou or everyone who was popular with the eighteen horsemen, they all faintly felt in their hearts that maybe this time they were about to uncover the real reason for the explosion of the corpse tide around Houtu City, and find a way to break the corpse tide.

"Brother Luo, how about it, let's go down and have a look together? This time, the secret of the corpse explosion is estimated to be below. ”

Wu Mingsheng looked at Luo Hou, and the look in his eyes was greatly moved.

Luo Hou nodded, and there was no objection, what Wu Mingsheng said was exactly what he thought, whether he could find the cause of the corpse explosion this time, he could only know if he went down to investigate.

"Okay, Menglong, you take a team of brothers to guard outside, if anything happens, remember to inform us in time. The brothers of the second team, follow me and Brother Luo down, and if you don't find out what secrets are hidden below, you will never come up today. ”

"Let's go, everyone, keep up, get out!"

Wu Mingsheng gave an order, followed by Luo Hou and eight other members of the popular eighteen cavalry, each with a torch, and walked straight down to the deep hole.

As he entered the underground cave little by little, Luo Hou's spirit became tense a little bit, and the detection technique was full of firepower. He was very vigilant to probe the surrounding situation, and was also faintly wary of Wu Mingsheng and the others around him, and if there was anything wrong, he would immediately release all the spirit pets in the spirit pet space to protect themselves.

After all, Luo Hou and the people of the Eighteen Riders of the Hundred Riding Dynasty had just met today, and it was impossible to say that they knew anything.

The so-called defense is indispensable, and it is always right to be careful.

The group shined by the light of the fire. Slowly entering the depths of the cave, I saw that the four walls of the cave seemed to have been corroded by something, and the walls of the cave were very smooth, and there were no traces of excavation.

The size of the cave has not changed significantly, it has been tilting underground at an angle of about 30 degrees, and the further down it is, the more people feel a cold air slowly attacking, and involuntarily have a layer of goosebumps.

Everyone went about 200 meters deep, but they didn't even see that this cave had the intention of reaching the end, and there was no other fork in the road. It's weird.

Wu Mingsheng frowned, his steps slowed down, and he couldn't help but remind everyone:

"Be careful, the situation here is very weird, I don't know what the hell will appear when the time comes."

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but clench the weapons in their hands, and the look of vigilance on their faces was even worse.

It was Luo Hou, whose expression on his face remained unchanged. It's just that I have some doubts in my heart, and I don't know what this cave is made of. It went diagonally to the ground, and there was no different material layer on the surrounding cave walls, as if it was coated with a layer of mysterious substance, and it looked like it was all ordinary.

After diving for about 100 meters, everyone suddenly felt that the terrain under their feet suddenly became flat, and the cave in front of them suddenly increased several times. Several forks of the same size appeared, each leading in a different direction.

However, the direction of each fork in the road is parallel to the ground, and finally it does not continue to go deeper into the ground.

There are a total of five forks in the road, and Luo Hou and Wu Mingsheng and others together are only ten people. If the troops are divided and advanced, there is obviously a shortage of manpower.

Wu Mingsheng turned his head to look at Luo Hou and discussed: "Brother Luo, look, are we going to check the past one by one, or are we dividing into two roads and exploring the two forks together each time?" ”

After going deep into the cave for so long, Luo Hou did not have any signs of life through the exploration of the guò detection technique, but for the sake of insurance, he still said: "I think it's better for everyone to act together, we are basically blinded by the situation below, and it is easier to deal with any situation if everyone stays together." ”

"Well, that's exactly what I wanted." Wu Mingsheng nodded, and walked towards the first fork on the right, followed by Luo Hou and several others.

After entering the first fork of the road, everyone walked all the way about 300 meters in a zigzag way, and they came to the end, and there was no road in front of them, which was regarded as entering a dead end where there was nothing.

Not discouraged, they returned to the spacious hall where they had been, and walked in through the second fork.

Obviously, the luck of Luo Hou and Wu Mingsheng and the others today was not very good, and after going hundreds of meters deeper, everyone returned in vain, and returned to the previous hall from the same way.

Fortunately, the distance of each fork in the road is not too far, but it does not delay everyone for a long time, if you don't let it, it will be too rowed, and you will spend a lot of time wasting on the road.

After returning to the hall again, looking at a fork in the middle, Wu Mingsheng scolded with a not very good-looking face:

"His grandmother's, I hope this time I won't go the wrong way again."

There is no obvious difference between the several forks, and everyone can only check them one by one in order, and as for when they appear again, they can only rely on luck.

A fork in the middle of the road was obviously much longer, and everyone had been walking for nearly a mile, but they still didn't see the end.

There was not the slightest frustration on everyone's faces, on the contrary, everyone was a little excited.

The two forks just now only walked a few hundred meters to the end, and found nothing, and now this fork is obviously different from the previous two, and it is very likely that this time the choice is finally correct!

Wu Mingsheng showed a hint of joy on his face, and commanded everyone in a deep voice:

"Brothers, all concentrate and be careful, beware of any changes ahead, we may have found a place this time."

Everyone walked a few hundred meters along the winding fork of the road, and suddenly the terrain sloped downward!

As the cave went deeper into the ground, the space at the entrance of the cave slowly became wider, like the mouth of a monster, trying to choose people to eat.

Maybe it's about to find out the secret next, everyone's hearts can't help but clench, and there is a faint fear of the unknown in anticipation.

Finally, at the end of the road, a huge space the size of a basketball court and more than ten meters high appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

Looking ahead through the dim firelight, everyone was stunned by what they saw, and they couldn't say a word for a long time.

I saw that in this space, there was a dark red blood pool rippling in the middle of the position, the blood in the blood pool had dried up, only a thin layer of blood clothes remained, and a row of three-meter-high giant eggs lay in this dry blood pool, and clumps of disgusting mucus stained around each giant egg, connecting all the eggs together.

It's just that at this moment, the giant eggs in front of everyone, which are about fifty or so, have all cracked open, as if something has hatched, and the inside is empty, and there is nothing left.

Rao is there is no sign of life in this, and everyone still can't help but feel a tingle in their scalps, and they can't imagine what would choose to hatch offspring in this deep underground cave?

"Huh...... There seems to be something behind it? Like the corpse of a giant zombie. ”

Luo Hou suddenly snorted and looked at a space behind the row of giant eggs, in the area where the fire could not shine, he seemed to faintly see a huge corpse lying there.

Wu Mingsheng gritted his teeth and looked at the strange scene in front of him, first raised the torch in his hand and walked forward.

"Let's go, go and see what is left here, maybe it will show up."

Everyone endured the numbness of their scalps, followed Wu Mingsheng and Luo Hou, and walked towards the huge corpse of Luo Hou Xian.

With the light of the fire, the corpse finally emerged from the darkness and appeared in the eyes of everyone.

Looking at the corpse, everyone's eyes widened again, and they were deeply shocked by what they saw.

To be exact, this corpse was just a husk, lying on all fours in the open space behind the giant eggs, about five meters tall, covered with a layer of purple-black scale armor, hideous features, and sharp barbs on the joints of the hands and feet and on the huge head.

However, this corpse, which does not look simple, is actually a layer of skin shed by some unknown zombie, which is hollow inside, and there are many dry tendon-like things on the skin that are connected with the giant egg in front of it.

The ruptured and hatched giant egg, the hollow giant corpse, and the qiē look so weird, it makes people feel a little chill in their hearts, as if they have come to a ghost.

Luo Hou and Wu Mingsheng glanced at each other in surprise and horror, and their eyes couldn't help but light up, and they had already guessed something at the same time, about the situation of this corpse explosion.

Then, the expressions of the two couldn't help but become heavy again.

Obviously, the reason for this corpse explosion must be inseparable from the row of eggshells and corpse shells in this strange space.

However, now that the unknown beings in these two things have left this place, it is likely that they have been completely hidden in the corpses, and it is not easy to find them from the millions of corpses.

This is undoubtedly an extremely difficult task!

Moreover, there is not much time left for everyone, and there are many weak survivor cities, even with the help of Houtu City, it is difficult to support them for a long time. (To be continued......)
