Chapter 353: Ruins (Part II)
"Would you like to go back first?"
Chen Yang tested the headset, and the noisy white noise obviously couldn't connect to the EMER team.
After all, they were all his own subordinates, and it was impossible for Chen Yang to ignore such a senseless loss, and when he was about to turn around and leave, his right hand suddenly said, "Wait a minute!" ”
"What's wrong?"
"Host, look there!"
"Huh, what is this?"
Looking in the direction indicated by his right hand, Chen Yang was stunned for a moment, and his pupils couldn't help but constrict.
Originally, the patterns carved on the stone wall of the corridor were roughly the same type, and Chen Yang couldn't understand it, so he selectively ignored it, but just four or five meters away from him, the original pattern actually became a mural, and it was immediately distinguished from the inexplicable pattern in front.
Moreover, the meaning expressed in this mural that attracted the attention of his right hand also surprised Chen Yang very much.
“…… Is it a cube? ”
Indeed, the little figures drawn one by one, clearly representing human beings, gathered together, around a square that exudes lines, bowing and worshipping, the picture is very strange.
"I don't know."
In the face of Chen Yang's self-talk, his right hand didn't know how to answer.
"But this thing...... It's so much like ......."
Since the cube is very closely related to this place, as soon as he came to this place, the mutation became more and more intense, and he suddenly saw something that looked like a cube, how could he not let Chen Yang think of it.
"There is a high probability!"
The right hand looked carefully at the mural, "Lodger, come here, there is still here." ”
Right next to the frescoes, a series of frescoes appear one after another, limited by the time of the carver. Perhaps these murals certainly don't look as realistic as those of modern times, making it impossible to see the meaning expressed in them at a glance, and will add to the confusion because they don't know the story behind them.
But at least these murals are much easier to understand than the ghostly patterns in front of them.
From the first mural. A group of small people worship the square object, and in the second picture, the square emits countless lines, and many small people scatter and flee.
And then there's the third, fourth, and fifth, all of which seem to describe the disaster caused by that square. It wasn't until the sixth mural that things changed abruptly.
"Strange...... Why is this the only thing left? ”
Unlike the previous frescoes, the sixth fresco has only one square on the entire wall, not so much a fresco as the previous ones.
Reach out and stroke on the stone wall. Feeling the cold touch of the stone wall, Chen Yang muttered, "Chief Screw, what do you mean by this?" ”
"Go ahead, the answer may be ahead."
"But Wang Rui and they ......"
"If your men need you to take care of them at all times, what is their role?"
His right hand interrupted Chen Yang's words mercilessly.
After a moment of silence, Chen Yang nodded, and instead of returning the same way, he continued to walk along the corridor.
After seeing the sixth mural. The sides of the corridor have become smooth and neat stone walls, and there is no trace of carving. walked forward for as many as 100 meters in a row again, and even made Chen Yang have the idea that this corridor passage is not leading to hell.
In the deep and silent passage, except for the footsteps of Chen Yang and the light from the tactical flashlight in his hand, there was no other movement. The oppressive atmosphere coupled with the previous eerie murals will create a trace of fear in the hearts of even the most daring people.
"Sir, do you think it's weird?"
As he moved towards the depths of the passage, Chen Yang asked.
"What's weird?"
“…… Did you notice that the temperature here seems to have risen a bit? ”
Although Chen Yang is so strong that he does not resemble a human physique. It can resist low temperatures of minus fifty or sixty degrees, but this does not mean that he cannot feel the change in temperature.
From the beginning of going down to the cave, Chen Yang noticed that the temperature had risen somewhat, but it was not obvious, not to mention that this was more than 900 meters above the ground after all, and the temperature was definitely different from the ground with air circulation.
But the deeper he went into the passage, the more Chen Yang felt that something was wrong.
In any case, the temperature could not have risen so significantly!
"The temperature here should not be low."
Chen Yang didn't carry those devices on his body, but as soon as he said this question, his right hand suddenly cracked into thin stripes, and the surface was covered with dense fine holes.
"Well, your feeling is not wrong, according to the temperature standard of your human race, the temperature here has reached about minus ten degrees."
The right hand thought about it and gave an approximate temperature range.
"Ten degrees below zero?"
Chen Yang's footsteps were sluggish, he remembered that when he came down, the temperature detected was minus 35 degrees, but there was not much distance, and the temperature actually rose by as much as 25 degrees, reaching minus 10 degrees!
If this is normal, Chen Yang will never believe it.
"There's no obvious heat source around here, so why is the temperature rising so much?"
Chen Yang put his hand close to the stone wall, felt the cold touch coming back from the stone wall, and once again verified his idea.
It seems that unless this place is completely demolished, Chen Yang is really afraid that he will not find any reason.
Speculation of the Soviets' construction has been ruled out, in other words, it is an ancient ruin. The kind of ancient murals and patterns that have come all the way ahead also further confirm this speculation.
But doesn't the appearance of ancient ruins represent the fact that in ancient times, there were human beings who came to Antarctica? And it also spent a huge amount of manpower and material resources, and even did something that is difficult to do even in modern times, and built an underground building deep into the hinterland of Antarctica, under the ice layer of more than 900 meters!
Such a brain-opening guess always feels incredible!
It is difficult for ordinary people to believe that at least the shock in their hearts is indispensable, but Chen Yang was only surprised, and there was not much shock in his heart...... The right hand that stretched out was constantly changing all kinds of strange shapes, and in some ways, he was even more incredible than the unknown human who built this underground structure in Antarctica!
Even if I think so, I can't be happy!
Shaking his head and throwing away this thought, Chen Yang's heart moved, and he immediately noticed the strange appearance in front of him - a glimmer of light!
It wasn't the light from the tactical flashlight in his hand, it was from the front.
"Smack!"
Chen Yang turned off the switch of the flashlight, and sure enough, in the darkness, the light coming from front was particularly conspicuous, not an illusion of his eyes.
"Is it at some exit?"
As soon as he had this thought, Chen Yang couldn't help but speed up the pace of his footsteps, and quickly walked forward, walking more than ten meters away, the original corridor was not bent left and right, but slightly bent up and down, and it turned out to be a slope that was not easy for people to notice.
And when this slope is long enough, it is enough to create a ninety-degree bend effect.
Finally, the terrain of the passage finally calmed down, and the light coming from the front became more obvious and translucent, Chen Yang took a flashlight to search around, and after seeing that there were no patterns and murals around, he accelerated to the place where the light came from in front.
"This, this, this is ......"
Chen Yang, who had been just surprised, could no longer maintain the composure and calmness on his face this time, looking at the scene in front of him, he suddenly lost color, and the words that came out of his mouth became bumpy, and his tone was full of disbelief!
What appeared in front of Chen Yang was actually an unimaginably large underground cave!
What a huge cave this is, from where Chen Yang stood, holding a flashlight to shine out, he could only vaguely see the uneven top, the height exceeded more than 500 meters, and down to the bottom, it was simply a cliff, as black as ink, the cold wind was blowing, and the beam of light shot out by the tactical flashlight was directly swallowed up by the vast darkness, and even the reflective light points could not be seen.
As if it was like the deepest nothingness of the universe, the tactical flashlight lost its most basic role here, but made Chen Yang faintly feel a trace of fear.
It's the fear of the unknown and the power of nature and the unpredictable!
"Lodger, your love has a lot of ups and downs...... Are you afraid? ”
The right hand was a little incredulous at first, and then realized: "It's no wonder that as a human who has not stepped out of his home planet, it is inevitable that he will be afraid of a scene similar to the void. ”
In fact, drifting in the cosmic space is more like being in the endless sea, alone in the abyss of tens of thousands of meters of the sea, unable to see anything, unable to hear anything, only occasionally seeing a little light floating in front of you.
Such a cold universe is the real universe.
Many civilizations that have entered the development of the universe for the first time will encounter such mental illness when they travel long distances between celestial bodies, and they have to make some countermeasures. Of course, a parasitic race like the right hand, a special creature with a lifespan of tens of millions of years, has long been accustomed to the loneliness of the universe, but there are no defects of some intelligent creatures.
Yes, this trace of fear in Chen Yang's heart is a defect in the eyes of his right hand.
A flaw that it regrets.
But from a human perspective, Chen Yang's fear is also understandable, even if it only exists for less than a few seconds.
This cave is indeed unimaginably large, Chen Yang stands at the exit, similar to the edge of a cliff, and below him seems to be an abyss leading to the center of the earth, as long as he takes another step forward, he will fall into this bottomless abyss.
The ghost knows what will be below, Chen Yang will never dare to try it.
I don't even want to have such thoughts!
However, compared to this cave abyss, which frightened Chen Yang, it was not this reason that shocked him, but the huge building in the distance! (To be continued......)
