New World Chapter 21 The Stolen Crystal and the Sacrificial Chamber
"What's going on?"
Wieland asked, looking at the huge deep ice cave that had appeared inexplicably.
The people behind him also looked at the scene in front of them in surprise.
He had been ready to camp in a deserted town, but the sudden appearance of a huge ice cave disrupted the plan.
"Obviously there was nothing here yesterday."
After 3D simulation, the excavation experts were surprised to find that someone or something else had helped them complete the task in advance.
"The length of this ice cave is exactly the perimeter of the pyramid..."
"How?"
There was a lot of talking.
"Can you do it?"
Wieland asked.
"No, it looks like some kind of thermal device, much more advanced than ours, at least no one in my industry can do that in 24 hours."
The excavator looked at the melted building on the other side of the ice cave and said without looking back, a large circular cavity appeared on the building.
"There was no explosion or shattering, it was pierced in an instant, unbelievable!"
The excavator looked at the building and muttered.
Wieland frowned, could it be that there were other contenders?
"Alright, whatever it is, let's go down and find out."
Interrupting the discussion, Wieland said.
While everyone began to set up the zipline, Wieland returned to the car to rest.
"Ning, what do you think?"
Wieland asked, Ning Wuwu, who had been following him since he got off the boat.
"I don't know, although I don't know how to dig, but I'm curious, no matter who they are and how they do it, at least their technical strength is far superior to ours."
Ning Wuwu replied solemnly.
“… You... Cough... Cough... Ahem..."
Wieland was about to say something when a violent cough interrupted him.
"Sir!"
Maxwell hurriedly took out a small breathing apparatus and handed it to Wieland.
It took a long time for Wieland to breathe, but his face became ugly.
"With all due respect, Mr. Wieland, for the sake of your health, you'd better stay on top, and I'll try to give you the information below in a timely manner."
Ning Wuwu said.
Maxwell also looked at Wieland hopefully, hoping that he would change his decision to go in person.
“… It doesn't matter, the doctor told me that the most painful thing I've ever experienced. ”
Despite not breathing steadily, Wieland showed his determination to go in person.
Maxwell could only look at Ning Wuwu with a pleading gaze.
“… Well, I'll do my best to take care of Mr. Wieland. ”
Ning Wuwu said helplessly.
"Thank you, after this expedition, the company will definitely give Mr. Ning a satisfactory reward."
Ning Wuwu nodded casually.
At the same time, inside the Predator Ship, the busy figures of everyone appeared on the holographic projection, and the five Predators were making final adjustments to their weapons and equipment...
Soon the equipment was ready, and Ning Wuwu followed Wood into the ice cave among the first ones, and although there was a zipline to help, everyone still had a hard time.
The stealthy iron-blooded ship flew past the town, a strong air current whipped up snow, and a zipline was affected and malfunctioned.
"Ahh
"Mr. Wieland!"
With anxious shouts and screams, a figure broke off the zipline and slid down at a rapid pace.
Ning Wuwu frowned, stood in place and waited, and grabbed Wieland's clothes as the figure swept past him.
“… Thank you. ”
The frightened Wieland gasped for air and thanked him.
"Be careful." Saying something casually, Ning Wuwu easily used his strength to pull Vilan up.
Wood looked at Ning Wuwu in surprise, the acceleration of the glide of more than twenty meters, coupled with Wieland's own weight, ordinary people who reached out to pull and were afraid that their arms would be broken on the spot God blessed, and Ning Wuwu looked at ease.
This scene also appears on the holographic projection in the spaceship...
The emergency situation was resolved by Ning Wuwu, and the rest of the people became more and more careful, but fortunately, there were no more accidents, and everyone successfully reached the end of the ice cave.
Everyone looked at the pyramid in amazement, the text of various civilizations, the exquisite relief murals on the wall, an expedition member kept moving and changing angles to record the scene in front of him with a camera, after stepping on a stone slab, the stone slab slowly sank, the mechanism was activated, and a huge and hideous creature was activated from the depths inside the pyramid...
Ning Wuwu looked at this scene, secretly thought, and started.
"You can choose to enter, and those who are selected can enter."
An archaeology professional struggles to translate the words on the wall.
"Hey, who taught you your ancient text, it's clearly written that the chosen ones can enter."
Someone next to him pointed out his mistake.
… At this time, the personnel remaining in the camp above were being attacked by invisible enemies, unable to resist, unable to determine the enemy's position, and even if they occasionally hit the enemy's armor, they could not break through the enemy's armor.
In order to observe the tradition and complete the trial, the five Predators, who only carried cold weapons, easily slaughtered all the remaining personnel with weapons in their hands like slaughtering livestock...
"The expedition personnel died, and the current number is 21 remaining."
Hearing the notification of the system in his mind, Ning Wuwu was stunned, Gan! The people in front of you are safe and sound for the time being, so?! The camp was attacked?!! The Predator did it?!
Careless, forget this plot, there is no way, even if you remember, you can't remind them, do you want to tell them that a group of bloodthirsty aliens who can be invisible are coming to attack the camp? They won't believe it, and even if they do, how can they explain their sources?
Damn it! Ning Wuwu slammed his fist on the stone wall in front of him irritably.
"What's wrong? Ning, what's wrong?! ”
Wieland asked when he saw Ning's move.
"No, nothing, just forgot something."
Ning Wuwu replied sullenly, secretly hating in his heart, damn alien crumbs, if there is a chance, he must kill them all.
With the combined efforts of many professionals, the entrance was quickly found, and the large army began to enter.
In the empty hall, many coffins were placed there in an orderly manner, each coffin had a white bone on it, and the human bones next to it were piled up everywhere, and everyone looked at this scene in front of them in surprise, even if it had been a long time, it seemed that they could still hear a faint scream.
"What's the situation?" One of the team members asked.
“… I think it was some kind of sacrificial ritual, and it turned out that all the people here were probably sacrifices. ”
One of the experts replied.
"Men, women, looking at their posture, should all be voluntary, it should be some kind of honor to be sacrificed, and even these guys with coffins may be nobles of the ruling class."
A member of the team carefully reads the words carved on the ground.
"He... They gave their lives... life, the hunt can begin. ”
"How did this happen?"
The blonde girl Lukin asked, pointing to the white bones on the coffin, and following the direction of her finger, there was an obvious large hole in the chest cavity of the skeleton, and looking around at all the bones on the top of the coffin had a similar situation.
"The heart of the sacrificer was pulled out, which is common in records of similar sacrifices."
An expert has the answer.
"But that place wasn't the heart, and the bones next to it were all broken outward, and it looked like something had crawled out from the inside."
Lukin was not satisfied with the expert's answer.
"Hmm?!! This..."
The expert was speechless for a moment.
